The InnerKiller Compensation Guide

How We Honor the Women Who Build the Darkness With Us

Updated: December 12, 2025

InnerKiller isn’t powered by algorithms or faceless content mills. It’s powered by women with sharp minds, dark imagination, and an unshakable desire to tell the stories no one else will touch.

Every iKProfile™(Inner Killer Profile).
Every Toe-Tagged Tale™.
Every edit sharpens a sentence like a scalpel.

This page breaks down how we compensate the creatives who keep our morgue lights glowing red.

1. iKProfile Creators

The Architects of Our Killers

iKProfile Creators are the heartbeat of our storyworld. You craft the psychological blueprints that inspire our Toe-Tagged Tales™ — the killers who become legends inside the InnerKiller universe.

How You’re Recognized & Rewarded

  • Prominent Credit
    Your creator name appears on the profile page and on any resulting story. Your killer becomes part of the canon — and your name becomes part of her mythos.

  • $50 Story Selection Bonus
    If your iKProfile is chosen for development into a Toe-Tagged Tale™, you receive a one-time $50 bonus.

  • Community Perks
    Access to exclusive updates, creative drops, insider events, and occasional giveaways.

This is where fans become architects… and architects become legends.
