The parallel RPG

TORMENTORS:

Despite having a similar appearance to Stalkers, Tormentors are an entirely different entity, that possess entirely different motives.

Unlike Stalkers, who only target their victims for a food source, Tormentors will capture a victim, usually via home invasion or whenever the victim is alone, and will relentlessly torture and mutilate them, intentionally keeping them alive for as long as possible to maximize their suffering. When the victim finally passes, the Tormentor will then eat the remains.

Tormentors can run at speeds of over 100 mph (160.9 kmph), swim as fast as your average speed boat[1], and overall move in a very erratic and unpredictable manner. They will target anything and everything indiscriminately, regardless of age, and even targeting their own species. Tormentors are seemingly impervious to gunfire, explosives, and heat. The Entity Information Guide states that "If one is in your area and locks eyes with you, there's nothing you can do to stop what's about to happen. Pray you die quickly".

Despite being extremely aggressive, for unknown reasons, Tormentors, like Stalkers, are extremely afraid of Entities of Influence, and will deliberately stay far out of their sight when one is in the area. Tormentors also do not pose as much of a threat on an international level, and are rare compared to Stalkers.

Tormentors are visually similar to Stalkers, though with a few differences. Their most notable differences being the long horns on its head, which appear to curve backwards, and it's very long and wide grin with many sharp teeth. Different variants of Tormentors also exist, with some having visible eyes in their sockets and others having them deeper inward.

Their arms are very long compared to their legs, and reach to the ground. Their neck is very elongated and curved, and they appear to have a hunched/crouched posture.

Tormentors will torture and kill Stalkers if they ever meet. If a Tormentor encountered a group of people, it would try to kill and torture all of them at once. Little fun fact, if enough Tormentors teamed up, they would be able to kill Omni-Man. Though Tormentors attack eachother, so this wouldn't be possible.

STALKERS:

Stalkers, as the name implies, will find a victim and watch them for some time (usually ranging from just a few hours to a few days), before finding the perfect time to strike, which is preferably any time the victim is alone. When possible, the stalker will lunge at its victim, swiftly attack and kill them, and then eat them.

But, there is a problem with their meal choice. Stalkers will strictly go after children and infants, as they are easier targets. But, if desperate for food, stalkers will also target adults.

Another problem lies in how they consume their meals. Stalkers will only kill their victims beforehand if they put up an inconveniencing fight. This means that if a victim is already weak and helpless, the stalker will waste no time with incapacitation, and will eat its victim alive.

With this information, it is unfortunately evident that stalkers, essentially, eat human children alive. This is further proven by the information provided from numerous incidents and cases, that describe parents being startled awake to the sounds of broken glass/doors and their child's screams, before hurrying into an empty blood-stained room where their child used to be.

Of all the entities in this series, stalkers are by far the biggest current threat, responsible for an exponential increase of missing persons cases in the United States and the rest of the world, over the years.

There are two known variants of stalkers, that being bipedal stalkers, and quadrupedal stalkers.

If spotted and pursued by a stalker, do NOT try to outrun it. Bipedal stalkers can run 60-70 miles per hour, and quadrupedal variants can run up to 80 miles per hour. Instead, try to find a place to hide. If found, use a weapon such as a firearm and aim for the face. It will stun it, giving you time to escape.

Keep in mind, a stalker WILL die if shot enough amount of times. So if you possess a firearm with more power, do NOT hesitate to use it.

Since quadrupedal stalkers are stronger and more agile than their bipedal counterparts, they tend to target full grown adults for their primary food source.

Despite stalkers being the largest current threat to humanity, they are overwhelmingly disadvantaged against other entities, particularly Tormentors.

On numerous occasions, stalkers have been either killed or tortured to death by tormentors.

This is no surprise, knowing that tormentors actively kill and torture their own kind to death as well.

For reasons unknown, both stalkers and tormentors are extremely afraid of Entities of Influence, and will deliberately stay far out of their sight when one is in the area.

Bipedal Stalkers are tall, lanky creatures completely black other than their face, which is a shade of beige. Bipedal Stalkers have creepy, permanent smiles, and eye sockets larger than their eyes, and a nose. Their necks are long, and their fingers are long and spinels

Quadrupedal Stalkers are visually similar to their bipedal counterparts, but with a few noticeable changes. Their arms are much longer, allowing them to move on all fours, their eyes are bigger, they do not have a nose, and their mouth has is unnaturally long, with considerably less teeth.

ENTITY OF INFLUENCE: Entities of influence are extremely rare, parasitic entities that feed off of the pain and suffering inflicted on humanity by other entities. They do NOT directly harm humans.

When one is in the area, they seem to influence the behavior of other entities within a 5 km radius. Their influence appears to make any other entity nearby even more active, hostile, and unpredictable, in return resulting in more chaos, more suffering and fatalities of human victims.

Not much else is known about this entity, as it has only been reportedly seen four times, and visually documented twice, as already seen.

Interestingly, entities of influence are actually immune to the dangers other entities pose.

For reasons unknown, both stalkers and tormentors are extremely afraid of Entities of Influence, and will deliberately stay far out of their sight when one is in the Entities of influence are tall, lanky, skeletal, white creatures with empty eye-sockets, unsettling smiles, and a nose. they also have long thin limbs, almost making them at the size of a three to four story building.

DESPAIR CULLERS: Information about this entity is still theorized and unofficial, gathered from very recent cases that share similar descriptions.

These entities share a delusional belief that the natural world is a beautiful and perfect place, and that anyone who does not appreciate such things are ungrateful and unappreciative, no matter their personal issues.

As a result, Despair Cullers will strictly target, hunt down, and kill those who are depressed or mentally unwell, since they are commonly unhappy with the lives they live. To summarize, the goal of these entities, is to simply cull humanity of those unhappy and filled with despair. Despair Cullers are pitch-black entities with a three-pointed head with horns, and two eyes that vary in appearance, one normal (like humans), and a moon like shape. Their bodies are made up of black veins.

VIRUS:A virus, as the name implies, randomly infects any or all electronic devices in a household at any given time. The virus leaks the victim's personal information and negatively alters the contents of the device, all while scaring and taunting the victim watching.

The true size and proportions of a virus remains unknown, as it has never been physically seen in person.

This attack cannot be prevented, and anyone is vulnerable to it at any time, anywhere. Only the most advanced protective softwares can fend off against these entities. If your devices get infected, the best course of action would be to wipe all data off the device, and then destroy it completely.

There are no documented interactions between it and other entities, since viruses seemingly have no physical Viruses have never been seen physically, so it's hard to tell what they truly look like. Though, from their appearances on devices, they have long, white heads with two eyes, and a creepy red grin with a few teeth. The rest of their body, like most, is black, and they look malnourished. Their necks are long with a hole in them, sometimes white or red, as their appearance varies.

The Creator (hypothetical name), is (possibly) the first entity to ever exist, and the seventh entity to appear in The Parallel. It is the creator of all other entities, and also seems to reside outside of time and space.

Information

Appearing in Humanity, It is what created The Parallel which is also the experiment’s name. Not much of it has been documented since none of humanity has seen it, but it is the supposed “Creator” of the entire Parallel, making experiments of every possible scenario has happened on parallel Earths.

Almost at the end of the video, The Creator states that it must end another experiment, this could mean that it is still making different scenarios for another Earth. Appearance

TheCreator It is a white, lanky figure with not much known about it, since only the upper body is shown. It has 2 eyes and a nose with no nostrils and mouth. It also has somewhat thin arms and a thick neck making it look like it's head is connected to it's torso instead of it's neck. It lacks bodyparts (via. mouth,nose)

The video takes place June 4th, 2004 showing the world in utter chaos, as the monthly human death toll suddenly spikes and reaches billions (6.3b) while numbers of entities discovered suddenly rises all the way to 10 billion total entities discovered with flickering images:

SCHOOLS MASSACRED WORLDWIDE NO SURVIVORS SCHOOLS MASSACRED WORLDWIDE NO SURVIVORS Entities of Influence roam the area more Entities of Influence roam the area more A Tormentor invading a house and possibly speaking to the victim. A Tormentor invading a house and possibly speaking to the victim. Then, a mysterious fully white faceless entity with two eyes explains that the Parallel is an experiment and that there are countless other mirroring earths that it had experimented on and yet to experiment on in the future.

The video is a continuation of Additional Information. The layout is the same as Additional Information. The text says:

It is important to note that your safety is somewhat dependent on where you live.

Interestingly, stalkers and tormentors may have a small weakness to extreme cold which is why you will see less and less of them the farther north or south you travel.

This is not taken lightly though since you WILL still find them in the coldest of places, The cold slightly impacts their abilities, It does NOT kill them, so always stay cautious.

Oppositely, stalkers and tormentors thrive in warmer climates, which is why you'll find the highest concentration of either near the equator.

The following image depicts the safety level of any region based on stalker and tormentor presence.

Worldmap Notice that the Caribbean in its entirety, as well as parts of Central America, have been labeled as completely uninhabitable, for a good number of reasons.

The Caribbean mainly consists of extremely low-lying islands coated with thick forests/jungles/swamps, making it almost impossible to spot or predict tormentor/stalker attacks, and no higher ground to escape to. The Caribbean is very warm and often humid. The water surrounding the islands is extremely shallow and clear, making it easier for stalkers or tormentors to give chase, should you try to swim or sail away. Tormentors can swim as fast as your average speed boat or more, and have the power to capsize small boats, so sailing away from the islands to begin with isn't possible. Historically, no human who has traveled to the Caribbean has ever returned. As for Central America, the region does not share the same qualities as the Caribbean, and yet still has an unusually high concentration of tormentors and stalkers. These reasons act as grounding evidence to the fact that these islands remain completely empty and virtually unexplored/undocumented.

Caribbean Keep in mind, that this ONLY applies to stalkers and tormentors, as temperature in general has no effect on any other entity previously mentioned, and chances of encountering them remain the same regardless of location.

Similar to Stalkers, Tormentors thrive in hot and humid climates, and therefore become more common the closer you get to the equator. As a result, areas like the Caribbean (with Tormentors mostly inhabiting the Greater Antilles[3]) and parts of Central and South America are strictly uninhabitable due to the high number of entities in those areas. No one who as visited those places has returned. They become less common the farther north or south you go, however, no area on Earth, besides Antartica, is free from them. Cold does weaken them slightly, but not nearly enough to improve chances of survival. Even though Tormentors are similar to Stalkers, they will still attack eachother if they ever meet.

Some Tormentors have been observed to crawl on all fours. This is proven in Tormentor - Ancient history. Also in Tormentor - Ancient history, it is revealed Ancient Egyptians once worshipped Tormentors, and would even feed Tormentors corpses to prevent them from feeding on the living.

These tormentors look similar, but have a few notable differences. Firstly, their head is completely different, with their jaw being rounder. Second, their bodies look more like a Bipedal Stalker. Third, they have black horns instead of having normal brown horns.

Stalkers are typically 7-8 ft. tall (2.13-2.44m). Stalkers don't seem to grow or shrink, implying that they do not have a natural life cycle. The origin of the Quadrupedal Stalker's face is from a Void Meme, which had been reuploaded here. The face can be seen on the thumbnail. Stalkers are not very hostile to each other. [3] They appear slightly less in cold climates and appear more in warm areas. You WILL still see them, the cold does NOT kill them, it slightly weakens them. The same applies to Tormentors. Quadrupedal Stalkers are stronger than their bipedal counterparts, as they are slightly larger and generally more robust and heavily built (though not by a wide margin) in addition to being more agile and faster.[4] The Stalkers are intelligent enough to not fall into a trap, realizing that something is going on.[5] If a Stalker lacks human food sources (whether children or adults), it will undoubtedly attack and consume other wild animals out of desperation—provided, of course, that they offer sufficient sustenance.[6] Over time, the Stalkers in the Caribbean have evolved to tolerate animal flesh, though they still naturally crave human flesh and will therefore remain hostile should they encounter humans.[6] If there is NO food available, the Stalkers resort to cannibalism.[7] It takes between 30 and 50 rounds from an AR-15 to kill a Stalker.[8],[9] The Stalkers' corpses mysteriously disappear when you look away.[10] Tormentors and Stalkers die in the extreme cold, though this is just one of two speculations, the other being that cold only weakens them but does not kill them.[11] Stalkers can be easily killed by Despair Cullers.[12] Interestingly, in its first appearance, a Bipedal Stalker is hunting a baby, as a crib can be seen. Bipedal Stalkers cannot speak, and Quadrupedal Stalkers can only speak with great struggle. The bipedal and quadrupedal variants were discovered in the same A Tormentor will torture and kill a stalker if they ever meet. If a Tormentors encountered a group of people, it would try to kill and torture all of them at once.[4] A Tormentor would be able to kill/torture an Elder Mimic from Vita Carnis.[5] LC has confirmed that if enough Tormentors teamed up, they would be able to kill Omni-Man. Though Tormentors attack eachother, so this wouldn't be possible.[5] Tormentors have a habit of holding their deceased/tortured victims by the head, and suspending them off of the ground, almost as if they are "showing off" their kill. They appear slightly less in cold climates and appear more in warm areas. You WILL still see them, the cold does NOT kill them, it only slightly weakens them. The same applies to Stalkers Its confirmed that Tormentors can stretch their arms and fingers. In a fight against a hundred stalkers, a Tormentors would win. As confirmed by LC in a fan community post. Some Tormentors eyes do protrude through their eye sockets, while others don't. The Tormentors have variants.[6] All Tormentors have eyes, but some are set further back on the head, so they cannot be seen.[6] The Tormentors do not sexually harass their victims.[7] The Tormentors are physically strong enough to overturn (and perhaps even throw a short distance) a car with ease.[8] If a Tormentor ever encounters one of the Stalkers while both are pursuing the same person, the Tormentors will torture them both to death.[9] They cannot speak.[10] It was confirmed that the Tormentors torture their victims in various ways and using different methods.[11] They torture humans to death and then eat their remains, and they do it all for fun.[12] No matter what you do, a Tormentors will kill you anyway.[13] They know your location if it sees you from a security camera somehow.[14] Tormentors and Stalkers die in the extreme cold.[15] Tormentors can be killed by their own kind or by the effects of Anguish. If a Tormentors looks at the Anguish, it is practically dead. So, technically, if several Tormentors look at it in the eye simultaneously, they all die (because they will all end up taking their own lives).[16] Tormentors can survive—and even kill—an Anguish, provided they manage to get close enough to attack without making eye contact.[16] Tormentors can be easily killed by Despair Cullers; Making the Despair Cullers much stronger than the Tormentors.[17] Tormentors can crawl on all four legs. This can be seen in one of the images in Ancient history and Unfortunate. Tormentors can starve to death within 5 to 6 months without food[18] A Tormentor may have been seen talking due to in the last episode of the Parallel, text popped up beside a Tormentor The thumbnail for the last episode was made by Mikhailorix

The video is another information video about the Entities, the video says:

When considering the origins of these entities, we have selected a primary theory that closely lines up with evidence discovered over the centuries.

The Entia Primordialla Theory states that these entities have existed on earth just as long as humans have, though have not been properly discovered until way later.

The theory details that these entities, over time, have begun to show themselves more and more as the centuries past and the human population grows, an almost deliberate action to instill increasing stress and paranoia into the public and their respective goverments, further supporting the key purpose that they exist solely to make humanity suffer.

As for the population of these entities as a whole, the theory also states that there has always been a fixed number of entities residing earth, since the start, implying a population that does not grow, fortunately.

And for the context of this situation, the word "discovered" is operationally defined as an entity with proper documentation and an (not always) official name. This is very important, so remember this.

The following is a (very rough) timeline of when primary entities were "properly" discovered 1350 B.C

EOI Image (History) Entity of Influence

(Rough translation)

"We do not know what this existence is, since it first came into being. We do not know whether it was the gods who created it. It is a matter of reckoning since it came into being when we were born."

Despite their increasing presence governments are trying desperately to keep these entities a secret from the general public, knowing what kind of global panic would ensue if otherwise. These guide entries remain the only reliable source of information for entities, and is restricted to government offiicials and investigators, also made in different languages for other governments as well.

Especially in entity infested areas like the Caribbean, where the United States government has strictly prohibited all travel to in recent years, working alongside other governments. They have destroyers stationed around all of the Caribbean islands, at a safe distance from the islands, and have completely restricted airspace over the entire region. Instead of making up a false story as to why they're doing this, they have straight-up stated that it is for completely confidential purposes, fiercely protecting its seecrecy. Kind of like Area 51, for example.

That's it for this entry.
