Here’s an alternate idea as to how and why slenderman and his brothers exist.
i just had an interesting thought about the slenderman and his brothers
basically revolveing around how and why his brothers exist which I thought might be helpful to you since you've had trouble in the past rationalizing why Slenderman would have brothers in the first place.

And I know you have your own headcannons involving family of slenders which behaves more like a typical "family" but this thought has more to do with the basic idea of slenderman, with as little add-ons as possible
So there are a few people who consider slenderman to be an animus, a being that exists because we believe it to exist strongly enough.
but if this is the case, then what about all those who believe in him being something different then what he is?
yes there are a great deal who consider him to be a mysterious supernatural and terrifying force, but there's no small portion who believe him to be goofy, lonely, misunderstood, so if he is a being who’s existence depends on the thoughts and beliefs of humans, what’s preventing him from being forced to take on those opinions as aspects of his very being? quality’s that are naturally at constant odds with one another, and could risk destroying what he is supposed to be, so what is an animus to do?
Why get rid of them of course!

I propose that slenderman’s brothers are not so much "brothers" so much as shed aspects of personality’s that had been forced on him by his "fans" which were broken from his being in order to keep himself stable, by being able to by-pass unwanted emotions and opinions onto his brothers, whether those holding the ideas realize it or not, which is why he would keep them alive.
killing them would mean accepting all those cutesy ,horny ,cuddly ,sarcastic, and very human emotions and personality traits back onto himself.
it also decently explains why only certain "brothers" are popular, while even well-made ones beyond these three brothers just fall into obscurity, because they aren't fulfilling this role.
They are not allowed to exist within the popular knowledge surrounding him, because they either take away personality aspects that should belong to the slenderman, or else cover aspects already taken care of by one of the brothers, and are therefore deemed unnecessary.
For instance, emotions and personality aspects belonging to tenderman, befrienderman, and to a certain extent, surrenderman, and dependerman could all be covered by Splendorman, therefore they are not needed as brothers of slenderman.

I think Trenderman is popular because he was the first to make up for some of the things splendorman could not, but because of this, he's a bit more specialized than Splendorman, who seems like he was made to be as much of a catch-all as possible, so naturally he would share some traits with splendorman when it comes to making certain brothers unnecessary, which would include pretenderman, defenderman, and spenderman.

but he would also cover some ground entirely on his own, which from what I could tell, would cover areas revolving what we consider to be rational thinking, with splendorman taking up the reasons that a child would use, and trenderman encompassing the more adult reasons, such as skepticism and logic(which could be just as dangerous to a being like Slenderman as the kind of bubbly joy Splendorman deals with). but beyond that, Trenderman seems to encompass both femininity (at least to a certain extent), as well as one of his most major aspects, which is artistic expression and the desire to create and appreciate art, letting him take on the thoughts and desires of much of the large artistic community which had drawn their attention to the Slenderman and his brothers. It just so happens that he does it through fashion rather than say, painting.
But this means he encompasses variations such as Renderman, Fenderman, Slenderwoman, and Suspenderman, making them unnecessary.

And then there's Sexual Offenderman. I doubt i have to explain what aspect of the fandom he serves to separate from slenderman, but like the others, that isn't all he does. to be put as simply as i can, where Splendorman can be used to represent excessive joy, he can only really cover the more innocent sides of it, Sexual Offenderman however, is able to cover excessive joy that stems from all the wrong reasons.
for instance, yes it is probably true that Slenderman enjoys killing others, however, he probably does not enjoy it to ridiculous excess, he's not a laughing maniac going around killing all he see's because it is fun.
just as it could be said that both Slenderman and Splendorman enjoy being around kids, but they do so for entirely different reasons and extremes of emotion which are at odds with one another and potentially hazardous to mix, and are therefore kept separate in two different individuals, and from what I can tell with smexy, pretty much all this leftover mental dissonance which could undermine the tasks of the other brithers and slenderman has ended up being lumped together into the last brother so the others don't have to deal with it, and even though the result is one really messed up and mentally unstable slender-being, it's probably safer and easier than trying to split the task further between the different brothers.

for instance, yes Splendorman and Trenderman can deal with the wealth of material that involves Slenderman experiencing feelings of loneliness or a desire for companionship, but none of them are really able to deal with the Frustration of being alone. likewise, many of them are able to deal with a variety of different kinds of annoyance, but none of them are really equipped for the expression of overly spiteful and petty revenge, after all, when you think of Slenderman, "petty" really isn't something that should come to mind; and sure Splendorman and Trenderman can deal with unwanted brotherly affection, but actual attraction is definitely not something they want to deal with, but along with that, at the same time none of them are really good for the flip-side of that, which is the intense desire for the brothers to murder each other, with that pressure being placed especially on Slenderman himself. But he can't kill them if they're still necessary, so rather than having to deal with it intensely on his own, instead just lump it into Sexual Offenderman, leaving him with both a perverse attraction to his brothers, as well as a strong desire to kill or corrupt them all, with the two mostly canceling themselves out,  at the expense of the youngest brother.  

So basically whatever isn't shown in the other brothers, or is emphasized beyond good reason (such as Splendormans "rage mode" and all the blind rage and animalistic quality's that involves) is for better or worse present in Sexual Offenderman, which was why he was allowed to get as popular as he has, to emphasize that fact and ensure the stability of the other animus.

This also helps to explain stuff like why all his brothers would be named after the Slenderman, along with his species in general.
And personally I just find that If they're considered as less of a "family" so to speak, and more as conflicting fragments of a whole, it just makes so much more sense when applied to Slenderman and what the fandom has done with him in comparison to trying to force him and his brothers into more human relationships and the like.


This is my unfinished script for the 8-roses video game idea. However, be aware how wildly impractical much of it is for a game idea, so before you try signing my praises, be aware that I may have to point out how stupid parts of the script are in terms of being an actual low-budget videogame.


Starts off with someone getting lead into an alley by a trail of rose petals, (possibly through a small cut scene) where they come across a beautiful red rose laying in the path, crouch down and take a close look at it, before standing up and carefully stepping around it, with a big shock as the music jarringly starts up.
Look around and back at the rose before cautiously continuing forward and coming to a fork in the path, one with rose petals, and one without. You choose the path without and as you do, there’s a quick shadow that passes over the roof above you, but looking up, you see nothing. You continue down the path anyway, until coming to a dead end, with a soft red glow coming from a rose placed on the lid of a trash can. Beside the rose is a note scribbled hastily in thick black marker that says “Take it.” You take the note, not the rose, with a sudden increase in the intensity of the music, and re-trace your steps to follow the path with the rose petals.
You come across another rose on the doorstep of a boarded up back door to whatever building it is that is surrounding you. Under the rose is another note, this time with an arrow pointing to the rose on top of it and the words, “I meant the rose stupid” with perhaps two other options depending on if you took this path first or did not take the other note. You have to be careful to pick up the note without taking the rose and when you do, you’re treated with a loud BANG! And crunch! As the boarded up door in front of you is hit with considerable force, making you step back as it is hit two more times from the other side, forcing the boards loose, which fall off, with the door swinging open a bit.
You open the door all the way, and notice that the music is now considerably creepier and heart throbbing now as you enter the dark building. You can barely see past a few feet in front of you, but there is a light switch on the wall beside you. The light flickers a few times, showing the shadow of tentacles moving out of the way of the lights as they turn on before they steady, showing a large dirty old kitchen like you would see in the back of a restaurant, complete with a few rats scurrying out of sight.  You head a bit deeper into the kitchen, but then turn back to look at the door out of there, only for the lights to cut out and the door to slam shut, with you being able to catch a glimpse of the silhouette of a tentacle over the bit of light coming in across the top of the door as it’s slammed shut, the light then flickers back on.
Your path out of there blocked, you turn back around and wander deeper into the kitchen, another soft red glow beckoning you into an adjacent room, which appears to be the a cozy office, perhaps once belonging to the head chef or something, on the desk is a whole bouquet of roses this time, with a note beneath it saying “Pleeeease?” surrounded by little hearts.
You take the note and exit the room, you see a door on the other end of the kitchen has opened to the outside. You exit the kitchen back into another alley, which after a bit of walking, with the music getting more and more intense the farther you go, only to calm down considerably when the alleyway ends, leading out into a more open space, which had numerous electric transformers spaced evenly throughout the area all behind a chain link fence with the warning sign “warning, high voltage”. There’s also a chain link doorway, and walking up to it and clicking on it you find that it swings open easily, allowing you to enter the area.  You walk through the area for a short while, with the area being pretty dimly lit, with the small amount of light there is casting  sharp dark shadows in the spaces in between the transformers (with intense exploration of every nook and cranny perhaps giving you a quick glimpse of the shadow of sexual Offenderman), but at the moment, you are drawn towards the spot-lit area on the fuse box (or whatever it’s called), which plainly shows a page taped to it, you walk up to it and take the page, with the word RUN written on it in small letters so you couldn’t read it from a distance, with a large , tentacles shadow suddenly being cast over you.
Now this is where it potentially losing gets more interesting, because beforehand if you were to take the rose, you would just be met with basically a game over screen along with a bit of audio of the sexual offenderman laughing or something similar, probably with the later the rose appears in the game before you take it, but with this one, you’re expected to not get it right the first few times while you work out the maze, so you get a few possible cutscenes
Transformers outside, chase scene? Fail+refuse=fine, then I’ll fuck your corpse.
Construction site-top of and jump off.
Decided to break it up into sections, although they still feel pretty long.....

I love the thought of slenderman's brothers being created by other's adding on emotions to slenderman, unwanted emotion, if you think about it, it really makes a lot of sense, plus it breaks it down easily enough to the point where you wouldn't be confused, and I love your video game idea, it's quite interesting, and I actually started snickering at the,"I meant the rose stupid". I really love your ideas on slenderman's brothers, and this video game you've been thinking about c:
