'Ok that was… fun. I can look at that more later' with this thought I'm now back at the main screen.
Having a much better understanding of the system now is great! Sure, there's still some questions that need to be solved but this is definitely better than before!
I thought I would just be stuck with basic Rain World mechanics my whole life! So, seeing something unique is literally a game changer!
'With that out of the way… where are Inv's stats?' Remembering that the whole reason I started looking at this was to see Invs stats I mess around with the screen a bit.
With a bit of messing around I find a whole new page that wasn't there before.
Accessed Stats
Invert+
'There you are… let's see what kinda stats Inv has' Taking a deep breath I mentally prepare myself. This is basically like looking into someone's private history.
With one last push I press on Inv's name
Invert-
Food: 654,510
Successful cycles: 43,634
Deaths: 674,302
Karma Points: -916,203

I stare dumbfounded at the stats, as if 100's of Flashbangs hit me I stare, dazed at the absurd numbers.
…
'Wow…I… uhh… wow… I was expecting to see some big numbers, but this is much more than I expected…'
Seeing how many times Inv has died makes my numbers look like nothing. Here I was thinking I was on the brink of madness yet here's Inv… somehow not being psychotic with this amount of deaths…
Looking at the successful cycles, I do a little math. If I base a cycle with 4 normal days… not even including the deaths…
…
'Holy shit! He's around 500 years old?!' again I find myself surprised by such a big number.
He's lived for around 500 years in this place?! Fuck! That's not even including all the cycles where he died! That's way more than 500 years!
Does this mean the cycle actually does make you live forever?! I always wondered why I felt like I never aged! It's because I never actually was!
…
Damn… I can live forever? I don't know how to feel about this…
…
I thought I would be weirded out that Inv is so much older then me… but I weirdly don't care? I guess with the cycle, age sorta just… stops mattering?
I suppose… this doesn't really change anything? The only thing that worries me is seeing such a negative karma score…
'Hold on… how many pips is that?' while thinking this I start counting each pip.
…
That's… that's 15 pips?! Why are there 3 more pips?!
'Damn it! I got careless again! I assumed that Inv only needed 12 food pips but he actually needs 15!' I lambaste myself for once again thinking that Inv had stats similar to the game I remember.
Of course he has more food pips, he is definitely… much higher maintenance…
…
Well, it's good to know this now. I did wonder how he could die so many times with such crazy strength. Something tells me it's due to the absurd amount he needs to eat…
With looking over his main stats out of the way I scroll down, seeing 2 more sections I can open.
Passives+
Attributes+
'Woah, Inv has passives as well? It isn't only exclusive to me?'
This would mean that… Does everything run off the same system I have? I feel a bit more confused than I did before.
I don't see any notes section… I guess that's only exclusive to me? That's cool, I like my notes!
Pressing the passives tab I see several things appear.
Passives-
Universal Hatred (Soul)
Effects: Any other Being's soul that perceives you will immediately hate your existence, either kicking in their fight or flight response. It is almost impossible to befriend any existence. Only beings with the same passive are immune.
'Well, what would you know. My good friend hatred.'
I'm not surprised seeing Inv have this passive. Ever since reading it on my passives menu I suspected this to already be the case, this just confirms it. But it still makes me wonder… How did Inv get this passive?
It's not like Inv was just brought into existence and the universe just said, 'I fucking hate you'.
…
Actually… that might be the case.
Moving on to the next passive I see something that's surprising but also not surprising.
Singularity Bomb Organ (Vessel)
Effects: Every cycle regurgitate a new singularity bomb in the form of an egg. Existing with this passive will require the vessel to need a much more substantial amount of food to survive.
Beings will perceive the singularity bomb as something to avoid at all costs.
Any other being that tries to use a singularity bomb made from this passive positively, will be inflicted with the Universal Hatred passive.
Reading this passive confirms that Inv being able to produce an egg bomb is actually an organ inside his body… or vessel? Still getting used to that term…
But why does using any of the egg bombs from that passive give you Universal Hatred?
Something tells me there's more to this passive, but I just don't know what…
Looking at the next passive, I see a word that makes me raise a mental eyebrow.
Plenary control (Vessel)
Effects: have absolute control over your vessel. Manipulating it in any way you want.
…?
'What the fuck is that word? I've never seen that word used before…' I question myself as I feel confused over this passive.
The effects however do explain some things. I always wondered how Inv was able to twist himself the way he does. This basically explains it. What a strange passive…
'Ok, next passive'
---------------------
A/N: yup, Inv has been around for a while.
