The spikes are used by The Entity to block Exit Gates and Windows, or to destroy Pallets. The two most common manifestations come in the form of spikes or spider legs. The Entity occasionally manifests itself in a physical form throughout the Trial Grounds given certain circumstances. Survivors that are mortally wounded and 'die' during a Trial, or shortly after escaping, will be revived by The Entity, also wiping their memories clean in the process and relocating them back to The Campfire. Those lost Survivors, whose hope has long since left them, are eventually thrown into a limbo realm known as "The Void". Eventually, as all hope evaporates, the Survivor becomes less and less useful to Entity, slowly devolving into a cold and emotionless shell. With each passing death, a little bit of the Survivor's soul is lost. The most effective way for The Entity to procure those emotions is through the never-ending trials, invoking hope in Survivors towards an escape from the nightmarish construct and fuelling the Killer's blood lust in anticipation of the sacrifice, a bizarre ritual through which Entity extracts its sustenance, which it needs to magnify its power and sustain itself. The Entity is described as an "Emotion Vampire", with sustenance coming in the form of strong emotions, such as the Killer's rage and anger, or the Survivors' desperation, hope or even affection towards other Survivors. Once they awaken by The Campfire, there is no escape for them anymore. Prey for The Entity comes in the form of the Survivors, regular people who stumbled into the corrupted areas and were pulled through by The Entity, with no memory of how it had happened. It is possible for it to change its mind during the process of converting the human into a new Killer and choosing someone else instead if it senses greater potential in them, as happened with Rin Yamaoka and her father, the latter having originally been chosen to become a Killer. The Entity actively recruits its Killers by sensing their killing potential in their mortal selves, before corrupting them into committing violent or evil acts. The Entity is ever patient and the torture ever more severe.Įventually they all cave in and start the hunt for The Entity. Some have to be tortured over endless years to be coerced into doing what The Entity wants. Many Killers do not do so willingly, although some are happy to sate their blood lust. The Killers are made to do The Entity's bidding, which is to relentlessly hunt and kill the Survivors. Through this weak spot, The Entity's Realm begins seeping over into the world, allowing The Entity to pull its first victims into its own nightmarish construct, the "Corrupted Ones", those pushed to do the deeds that summoned this ancient evil in the first place, also known as the Killers. The most effective way for The Entity to get a foothold in a new Terra world is for it to corrupt its inhabitants, to the point that they commit great atrocities as gruesome acts of violence weaken the veil between The Entity's Realm and the world. It is drawn to darker worlds, filled with chaos and darkness, as it chooses worlds that have failed to understand the metaphysical relationship between their thoughts and the world they live in, feeding off of their ignorance. The Entity travels from Terra world to Terra world, growing stronger in its power until it eventually consumes all worlds in the cosmos. It corrupts its victims, slowly driving them towards madness and eventually pushing them over the edge, which allows it to snatch them from their world and trap them in its Realm. The Entity is the cosmic embodiment of evil, turning worlds inside out with its very presence, a behaviour the Observer and his people witnessed when The Entity befell their home world. Modus Operandi The Observer describes The Entity's modus operandi in detail in the unreleased Tome entry Arcus 07 Cosmic Evil The Observer describes it as one of the "Original Ones", also known as an "Ancient". It creates the nightmarish Realms of the Trial Grounds to trap its victims, Survivors and Killers in an endless cycle of Trials, with the intent of feeding on its victims' strongest emotions, allowing it to grow in power and slowly consume another world. The Entity is an almighty malevolent being, travelling through the cosmos and slowly consuming worlds.
