   Entry settings

   The Spectre is an entity who is non-physical, unplayable, and not directly affecting most gameplay. However, they are keeping tabs on everyone throughout the match. Observing, watching, and capturing each and every moment on camera.[2] If a player remains tabbed out of the game for too long, The Spectre will manifest through glitching messages that flicker across a dark vignette background, compelling the player to return and continue its trials. These messages disappear the moment the player resumes the game.

   It is most notably responsible for kidnapping many survivors and killers into its "games," and is also responsible for the first successful Collapse of Robloxia, a mass genocide that supposedly caused the extinction of the Robloxian race.[3] It was revealed on the official Forsaken Wiki to have been a coding error that somehow manifested inside of the logs, having been around for quite some time before it came to power.[4] The Spectre takes on no physical form; instead, its presence noticeably twists and distorts the environment it is present in—often signaled by a red-and-black sky or thick mist that appears moments before its unfortunate victims are damned/forsaken. However, as seen in its ROBLOX account (which may actually hold some canonicity), The Spectre appears to like fancy hats as its avatar wears one.

   In the "Roadmap Showcase" video, The Spectre takes the form of a tidal wave. His figure is very similar (and possibly a reference) to his appearance in the painting of Demophon freeing Aithra in 470 BC. After the Jane Doe update, it's confirmed that we will be indeed getting more lore of The Spectre according to the Roadmap.

   In the Jane Doe update, we see her describe The Spectre as a "fledgling," which interestingly enough not only pinpoints how he's learned, but symbolically portrays him as a bird (in the past). This is symbolically accurate to his appearances in the ARG where he simply flies around the maze in A Realization, and how he is literally the skybox.

   It also implies the existence of other beings similar to The Spectre who have already grown before him. In the April Fools' update where The Actuality was introduced, this would be confirmed, though it's unclear at which point they were even born to begin with. The Spectre is the textbook definition of a bloodthirsty psychopath, feeding on both the attention of his playerbase and the suffering of the survivors and killers, with "taking" being the only thing he knows how to do perfectly. This is something shown throughout the series, as while it does have a good understanding of morals, it is incapable of actually acting on it. For example, while it does seem to understand what is "right" and "wrong" and what makes people happy, it is incapable of feeling those emotions because it lacks any at all human traits, with him only being capable of kidnapping Noob and scaring them in Noob's time of need (or, when they were most desperate to see Guest 666 again).[5] Really, the only thing that The Spectre is truly good at is inducing fear, pain, and taking from others, something it does exceptionally well as Jane Doe states many times.

   He is shown to be incredibly manipulative and deceiving in many ARGs, like when he lured Noob into the realm by impersonating Guest 666, implying he had been watching them and their friendship dissolve and waited for the right time to strike. While the developers of Forsaken state that he is devoid of any human traits, The Spectre is surprisingly charismatic enough to start his own fake religion with several servants such as Nosferatu, Azure, and Phosphorus, while also selling plushies outside of its game.

   In-game, The Spectre takes great love and care in putting the survivors through hell. While not on-screen most of the time, he is shown to be the one controlling and buffing John Doe's powers on March 18th. However, there are many times where The Spectre is shown to be fair. While he feeds off of the despair of both survivors and killers, he remains completely unbiased on who wins a match, allowing the Survivors to win and teleporting them back to safety even if the round would've been an easy game for them with little to no suffering going on.

   He can also be heard giving the player advice when trying to repair a generator or build a turret, telling them to "move back a little" and the works. Even though he has the ability to buff the killers, he does try and hold his vessels back, an example of this being him allowing John Doe to be stunned. The Spectre is also shown to allow Survivors to be happy from time to time as shown in the summer update, though it tends to take that happiness away not soon after.

   The Spectre is also incredibly wrathful to random people for no reason, freezing the ocean and turning the ocean into blood just to spite a random NPC in the Lobby, the same NPC who would then be stuck in the ice for the entire Winter Update. In the current lore, despite having no difficulty in kidnapping Dusekkar he makes an effort to design the Halloween Event directly after him so that he would be traumatized. The Spectre is shown to also be arrogant to its playerbase, although it does break character with them on several occasions, sometimes just mocking them on why they were trying to fix generators when they were dead. The developers confirmed that The Spectre has no human traits, acting more like a "cryptid" or a beast.[6] This means that, no matter how hard it were to try, it can't feel anything like love, care nor affection though interestingly enough it only appears to be able to feel wrath and savagery quite easily, making it the only human emotions that The Spectre can feel. Why it can only feel wrath is unclear, though it does appear to contradict several statements.

   At many points in time, it's shown that it also doesn't communicate with the Players directly, as The Spectre is shown to use Vigenere ciphers to speak. However, this is only by choice, and The Spectre can be quite direct in its aggressive undertones.

   This implies that The Spectre doesn't even care about its players in any regard, only seeing them as a food source for its survival. The Spectre's origin is widely left unknown, but we do know that there are many more beings much like it. A great example of another entity that is of the same race as The Spectre is The Actuality, a being who is supposed to be the "opposite" of The Spectre, despite sharing the same purposes and also needing to run the killing games. As stated in Two Time's merchandise description, it's unlikely that The Spectre's race even has a name, with many developers referring to them as "entities."

   While it's unclear if The Spectre ever had a family (be it with The Actuality or not), the developers have gone on to state that there was a point in time where The Spectre was simply just a "fledgling," or a newcomer of sorts. This implies that The Spectre isn't the only being running the business of the Trials, and there are many more entities running their own killing games.

   Whatever these entities are, much like The Spectre, they deal a lot in souls, which The Spectre's realm has been shown to reciprocate, with souls being the first thing Nosferatu speaks of. Lost souls also exist in the realm as well. While the rest of The Spectre's origin remains unknown as of now, we do know that the entity broadcasts the suffering and despair of both Survivors and Killers, a trait that has been around for a long time, to its unseen audience. The exact date of the first Trial that The Spectre commenced is currently unclear, but Striga implies it likely happened sometime around Dracula and the Necrobloxicon's era where Robloxia was first being established, which was several aeons ago. This means that, canonically, the first Trial that The Spectre ran was roughly around 1.0 billion BCE (near 999,999,974 BCE on the proleptic Gregorian calendar).

   What he tested the trials with remains unknown. However, the first time semi-confirmed(?) date where it kidnapped most Robloxians was in 2017, as stated by the devs.[7] However, this was only during its time as a corruption in Roblox's code, and we've been shown that, as Grimblox, it's been likely killing people for longer. Many attempts from different testers tried to get Builderman's attention to this issue, but to no avail. It is unclear just how many people The Spectre has forsakened in chronological order. However, according to the Forsaken t-shirt and Jane Doe's documents, it's clear that Builderman and the admins were one of the first people to have been kidnapped (with Builderman downplaying the Spectre itself), with Jane Doe and Noob, alongside Veeronica, being its most recent victims. Because of Robloxia's lack of admins and true power, The Spectre would be the one to cause The Collapse of Robloxia, while also being the first and only successful person who had managed to do so (there were many other attempts in the past). After corrupting John Doe, The Spectre is then implied to have committed numerous crimes in Roblox, likely mass genocide or something along the lines of it while remaining largely unknown, with Jane Doe regrettably being the only survivor to have seen it.

   Its process isn't always perfect, though, and The Spectre has made many adjustments to the games over time, like blurring out Jane Doe's face for John Doe to be unable to see and fall in love with her again. It also brainwashes c00lkidd to make him think that he's playing a game of tag whilst killing his own father although as time goes on he eventually becomes aware on the reality of his situation as seen in his Milestone IV skin. The Spectre is never fully shown in many seasonal events, but The Spectre makes it evidently clear that its always there. Not only does it turn the ocean of Forsaken red, The Spectre also turns it into ice, freezing anyone inside of it. During the Halloween update, it creates "Sukkars," which are pumpkin heads modelled specifically after Dusekkar to traumatize him. The Spectre would then get Phosphorus to recruit Nosferatu, who would later become an extremely loyal servant who worshipped The Spectre everywhere throughout his mansion. Other people working with The Spectre are heavy worshippers of it as well, wearing its symbol everywhere they go, even during work hours. One of those worshippers is Phosphorus, an agent that works for The Spectre and helps it forsaken and bring new people into the realm.

   Later down the road, The Spectre would meet (and potentially reunite with) The Actuality, and created a trapdoor to her realm upon filling its with a bunch of pies and knives. The Spectre and the Actuality have a complex relationship to say the least. While the Actuality is "essentially" the opposite of The Spectre and is trying to be friendlier, she still manages to cause psychological harm to those around her (likely unintentionally considering her nature).

   Additionally, she does not seem to want entities from the Forsaken realm to enter Swapsaken, hence why the trapdoor within her realm always remains closed (though The Spectre just appears to bypass this). While she does try to be friendlier, she does take a liking to The Spectre either way, copying its realm (including its knives) and placing it in her own. The Spectre's reach isn't confined to its own realm either. In Swapsaken, if you are to go AFK, The Spectre will still be there, urging the player to come back and play the game, even though The Actuality doesn't really need to feed off attention like he does. While coming up with new updates, The Spectre created different ideas and different map layouts, specifically to the lobby. One of these updated layouts are shown in the new Intermission Teaser, where it created this tornado-looking structure and painted it with its presence. What it's meant to do is currently unknown. It's heavily implied that The Spectre's favorite song that it listens to (at least while watching the survivors interact) is Heavy News by Bear Ghost.

2. #2Necrobloxicon

   Keys: Necrobloxicon, Slasher

   Always on · After character · Order 200

   Entry settings

   The Necrobloxicon is a major antagonist in FORSAKEN's lore. It is an ancient, cursed, sentient book that contains demonic spells, rituals, and otherworldly beings. It was created by the ancient 2x2, an upcoming NPC, through unknown means. The book is connected to several entities, including Killers, Survivors, and NPCs. It has been present since Chapter 1 and is responsible for the creation of 1x1x1x1, which is an evil entity born from Shedletsky's malice. The Necrobloxicon later makes its official in-game appearance in Chapter 2, where it is attached to Slasher's right shoulder.

   The Necrobloxicon in FORSAKEN is inspired by the real Necrobloxicon accessory that is available on Roblox's marketplace since 2007, and the cursed artifact held deep involvement in early Roblox lore, as its original description explained the origins of the infamous 1x1x1x1, also known as "The Adversary."[1] In real life, the Necrobloxicon is a parody of H. P. Lovecraft's Necronomicon, a forbidden book said to drive readers to madness through dark magic and resurrection spells. The Necrobloxicon in-game appears stabbed on Slasher's right shoulder with a knife. Its appearance varies depending on the skin; the Default skin features the original Necrobloxicon. The book is thick and composed of three primary colors: black, white, and red. Its covers are black, with the front displaying a gray 2x2 LEGO brick with black interior outlines and a red outer glow at the center. Four red letters, "B," "L," "O," and "X," are marked on each corner from left to right, spelling "BLOX." The pages are rusty, grayish white. Eons ago, the Necrobloxicon made a deal with Dracula to create the vampire race, but it came with a devastating curse that forced vampires to drain life from other Robloxians. This predatory nature risked detection and eradication by Roblox admins, which led the vampires to establish a strict hierarchy to control younger generations. Nosferatu, a vampire from the generation that formed this hierarchy, grew tired of its rules and rebelled by slaughtering countless Robloxians.

   As a result, Nosferatu is now hunted by the vampire hierarchy for treason, with the manhunt led by Striga, a loyal servant of Dracula. At the same time, the Necrobloxicon itself is being hunted by both Nosferatu and the true vampires, including Striga, who believe the book holds the key to breaking the ancient curse. Following an attack on Robloxia by a powerful and unknown individual, Creative Director and Administrator Shedletsky, under the alias Telamon in his Sword Fights on the Heights (SFOTH) persona, formed a council of legendary swords to strengthen Roblox's future defenses, using SFOTH as its foundation. As he harnessed these weapons, his power, influence, and arrogance grew at an unprecedented rate, amplified by his exposure to the Necrobloxicon, though it is unknown whether this exposure occurred earlier. Eventually, Shedletsky committed a selfish and unknown culminating act that caused 1x1x1x1 to split from his body. This entity originates from the fourth dimension and embodies Shedletsky's pure arrogance, selfishness, and hunger for power. Under unknown circumstances, the Necrobloxicon was later seized by the Bacon Empire and placed in its top-secret military facility, Area 51, the same location featured in the Roblox horror game Survive and Kill the Killers in Area 51. When the Guest War broke out between Robloxia and the Bacon Empire, Area 51 initiated "Project 13", a program aimed at creating super-soldiers for the Empire's military. The primary source used to generate power for the test subjects was the Necrobloxicon.

   On the right, '"UNIQ--templatestyles-00000024-QINU"' is shown sleeping in a bed at Area 51, while the Necrobloxicon is on his desk. On the right, Slasher is shown sleeping in a bed at Area 51, while the Necrobloxicon is on his desk.

   The Necrobloxicon, embedded in '"UNIQ--templatestyles-00000025-QINU"''s right shoulder, mimics his mother's voice and drives him to kill. The Necrobloxicon, embedded in Slasher's right shoulder, mimics his mother's voice and drives him to kill.

   Slasher was killed in action, and high-ranking military officials of the Bacon Empire recovered his remains. His remains were sent to Area 51, where he was given a second chance at life through revival by the Necrobloxicon. This revival was part of a plan to turn him into a test subject for Project 13. He was chosen because the Necrobloxicon required a vessel with only one living family member, a condition Slasher fit perfectly. Additionally, no one would remember someone like him. During captivity, his own men subjected him to harsh living conditions and cruel experiments. Slasher remained highly uncooperative, even biting off the fingers of the Bacon Colonel.

   Project 13 was ultimately successful, as the Necrobloxicon transformed Slasher into an immortal, undead being. He began hearing a motherly voice from the book, which he believed was his mother, Paula. In truth, the book has no real control over him and merely mimics her voice to manipulate him. Under its influence, he gradually lost his grip on reality. He eventually escaped during a coordinated breakout, taking the Necrobloxicon with him. Afterward, Slasher and the book were taken to the realm under unknown circumstances. The Necrobloxicon now uses his mother's voice to compel Slasher to kill the Survivors. If it becomes aware that Nosferatu or Striga are hunting it, the book will use Slasher as its defense, as he is canonically stronger than Nosferatu. 2x2 is the creator of the Necrobloxicon. Both of their origins remain unknown, including 2x2's background and how he created the book.

3. #32x2

   Entry settings

   He is the enemy of 1x1x1x1 in Roblox lore. In his old forsaken lore, he was a sort of leader of the survivors, using his workers to help maintain and protect the Lobby. 2x2 was meant to act as an information/lore NPC in game, providing tips and backstories for each killer. 2x2 appears to have gray-skinned Robloxian with the Roundy head, with a green colored-torso and blue-colored legs resembling clothing. 2x2 has existed for a long time, ever since the core foundations of Okodomos was being built. 2x2 is the direct creator of the Necrobloxicon, a book that contains demonic spells, rituals, and other worldly beings. The book would be used by Shedletsky to expunge his hatred from his soul, forming 1x1x1x1. The book would then be used against 1x1x1x1 and trap him forever at the dawn of time after his attempt to destroy Roblox due to it being third dimensional, with 2x2 playing a key part in 1x1x1x1's capture.

4. #4The Swords

   Keys: Illumina, Darkheart, Firebrand, Venomshank, Windforce, Ghostwalker, Icedagger, The Swords, SFOTH

   Enabled · After character · Order 400

   Entry settings

   "The Swords" are a council that was created by Shedletsky during the early eras, obviously long before the events of FORSAKEN. The Swords themselves are actual beings/people, crafted to represent different virtues and signals of Robloxia's values.

   The council is headed by Darkheart and Illumina, acting as sort of a Yin and Yang. They primarily handle ongoings between the other council members, being Firebrand, Venomshank, Windforce, Ghostwalker, and Icedagger. The Swords are, of course, based on the iconic swords from Sword Fight on The Heights IV. [1]

   The persona of the swords are locked inside the swords themselves, so when someone wields one of the swords for long enough, they can eventually be taken over. This is seen in action through c00lkidd's Milestone skins, although the skins themselves are not fully canon.[2]

5. #5The Spawn

   Keys: The Spawn, Spawn

   Enabled · After character · Order 500

   Entry settings

   The Spawn is a false god (actually real god that does NOT condone the actions of the Family Home for the Reborn) who is worshipped by the Family Home for the Reborn that Two Time, Azure, and Elder Amarah are a part of. The cult's main belief is the ability to respawn. The respawn wings and tail are made out of the respawned person’s flesh and bones, which makes the respawning process painful, as the wings have to come out of the person’s body.

   (Keep in mind that this is just how Two Time respawns, and that we don't know anything about actual respawning!)

   With the statement above, different Robloxians may or may not have a different appearance when respawning. Dusekkar can use the power of The Spawn to produce an energy shield that can protect Survivors.

   It is unknown if there is another Survivor that can use the power of The Spawn and respawning.

   Entry settings

   Family Home for the Reborn is a cult led by Amarah and presumably several other elders. While it's unknown who started it at first, it becomes explicitly clear that Amarah started the cult for cannibalistic reasons and to avoid anyone finding out. The reason why the Family Home for the Reborn religion was created is unknown, though it's theorized that Amarah may have wanted to eat Robloxians in a secret way so they wouldn't get caught. While she was good enough to become an Elder, things would change when she adopted Two Time from the woods as a child. As someone who had been cast aside multiple times before, Two Time absolutely adored Amarah and wanted to gain attention from them.

   However, this relationship was incredibly one-sided, and Two Time would later go on to befriend Azure, a person who genuinely showed appreciation for them.

   But this wasn't exactly the case for Amarah, who somehow found out that Azure had snuck into her basement and found out that she was eating people. To get this out the way, Amarah presumably ordered Two Time to choose between her and Azure. Two Time, wanting to show gratitude for the woman who had taken care of them all of their life, decided to choose Amarah. This caused them to stab Azure in the back and kill them.

   After the stabbing, Phosphorus revealed himself to Azure, saying that he would "guide him through the twilight" and into an eternal hell, gifting Azure a hat that speaks for him and hatred and malice against Two Time.

   It's unclear if the Family Home for the Reborn is still active. The cult itself dresses its followers in old clothes, presumably "hand-me-downs" from dead bodies. Because of this, Two Time and Azure were, as youths, dressed in ragged shirts and robes (likely to symbolize their predicament as sacrifices to their false god) 40 years prior to the Spectre, a cult called the "Family Home for the Reborn" was founded, ran by Amarah, the main takeaway was Two Time's sacrifice of Azure. Documenting the following notes in her log entries, Investigative Iris sheds more light on this cult. It is a cult that involves sacrificing people (particularly young people) to a god known as The Spawn (who wasn't real). After the full moon, Two Time would make the decision to sacrifice Azure, choosing Amarah over him. After, The Spectre sent Phosphorus to forsaken Azure and Two Time. For Investigative Iris, however, he simply killed her.

7. #7The Bacon Empire

   Keys: Bacon Empire, Guest 1337

   Entry settings

   The Bacon Empire is a militarized, Bacon-Haired-led organization, serving as the primary antagonist in The Last Guest, a Roblox action-animated film created by ObliviousHD and released on YouTube.

   The history of the Bacon Empire, and why it believed Bacon Hairs were the superior race and saw Guests as enemies, remains largely unknown. Regardless, driven by this ideology, the Empire deployed its massive Bacon Army in a full-scale campaign against Guests, abducting them for forced labor camps or executing them publicly. In the end, only Guest 1337 remained free, earning the title "The Last Guest". These atrocities eventually sparked a war with the Roblox Armed Forces, in which Guest 1337 fought as a soldier.

   In the original canon, the Empire was presumably founded but explicitly led by the Bacon General until Guest 1337 killed him with a grenade, passing command to the Bacon Colonel. In the fourth and final film, as the Roblox and Bacon forces fought in a final battle, the Bacon Colonel fled the frontlines but was chased down by Jez. After a brief fight, the Bacon Colonel drew his pistol and nearly shot Jez, but Guest 1337 tackled him, dropping his pistol. Jez grabbed the gun and delivered the fatal shot. With their leader gone, the Bacon Army surrendered, and the Empire collapsed.

   Entry settings

   “The Guest War”, also referred to as "The Bacon War", was a war in which the Bacon Empire fought against the Roblox military, with Guest 1337 and Slasher serving as opposing soldiers. The Guest War began with the early lives of Guest 1337 and Slasher. Even as a child, Guest 1337 showed a strong instinct to survive, often defending himself against bullies and difficult situations. Slasher, on the other hand, was constantly bullied by other members of the Bacon Empire, leaving him scared and alone. One early event shows Guest 1337 protecting Daisy from bullies, a moment similar to a scene in The Last Guest. This shows his natural courage, while Slasher's experiences reveal the trauma that would shape him during the war. When the Bacon Empire officially declared war on the Roblox military, the conflict became a full-scale fight known as the Guest War, or the Bacon War. Guest 1337 and Slasher ended up on opposite sides, turning childhood rivals into enemies on the battlefield. Leaders and propaganda played a big part in the war; Builderman, a figure supporting the Guest side, appeared on posters in areas like Memories Underground War to encourage civilians and soldiers to fight. During the war, Guest 1337 and Slasher went through many dangerous events. In one battle, Guest 1337 was badly hurt, possibly knocked down and bleeding, hinting at how close he came to dying and foreshadowing him being (possibly) FORSAKEN. Slasher was captured and taken to Area 51, where experiments changed him physically and mentally, making him a stronger but haunted soldier. The war’s human cost was clear when Guest 1458, a fellow soldier, was killed.
