Jabberwock

Just like many other characters from the first game, Jabberwock also makes an appearance but with a whole new purpose and design, just like how Bandersnatch got her rework.

After beating the Beast of Conceit, you will be able to go further down the bridge where you’ll reach the Riverside area. When you pass through the fog, you will first see Alice, but then she will turn into the Corpse Dragon Jabberwock.

You may recognize this area from the prologue of the game. And you will get an option to either kill or not kill Jabberwock, or big sis as she likes to address herself.

If you decide to kill Jabberwock as soon as you see her, you will initiate a fight with her. Jabberwock isn’t hard to beat, she has a lot of health, and her attacks are strong, but she doesn’t attack a lot so it’s easy to take all of her health away slowly. Especially if you have a weapon that deals a high amount of damage. Beating Jabberwock will give you a Tainted Black Soul, and an Ore Slab. You will lose 30 SEN and get the Soul of the Jabberwock.

When you befriend Jabberwock, you’re able to select the option to assault her. If you do that, you will initiate a fight with her, and she’ll most likely easily beat you if you’re not prepared to fight her. She will start off with a very strong attack. You won’t die, but rather, she will lock you in the Basement area that’s next to the bonfire at the Carroll River. Then, Jabberwock will come and start talking to you about how she liked the fact you tried to assault her, and she’ll also reminisce about the old days, and the first game. She liked spreading chaos but then a hero cut off her head, so she was just a corpse for hundreds of years. And then a very humiliating NSFW scene will happen, where she’ll use you and humiliate you to her heart’s content, but then she will disappear after someone intervenes and saves you. That’s because after the scene, she will start talking about how you don’t need Alice anymore, and about how you don’t need the Great Ones, and she will reveal their true nature. She will say that they pretend to be females and that they shouldn’t be trusted basically. She will also reveal the true nature of the cycles and tell you how malicious they are. In the first game, Jabberwock was a rotten corpse with a severed head – the one who killed her could be the Wicked Dragon Hunter Vorpal. She reacts to you having the Vorpal Sword in a fight against her by saying how it’s nostalgic. In the poem “Jabberwocky” she was also defeated and her head was cut off with the Vorpal Sword. Vernai is a dream spirit you can summon in a fight against Jabberwock. They seem to know each other quite well and Vernai is eager to kill her because she cursed his clan. If you try to send Jabberwock to the dungeon while having Vernai summoned, there’s an interaction involving him and Jabberwock if you fail to win the fight. It takes place in the basement in the Carroll River area, and after the forced intercourse sequence, Vernai will come to save you from her. Vernai will be mad at Jabberwock and she will be delighted to see him, calling him playfully “Ver-ver” and a good boy for not running away after you lost the fight. She will tell Vernai how you two have been making lots of love while also visually showing that to him. You can ask then Vernai to save you, which will end with him charging straight at Jabberwock and killing her in the process.

Jabberwock is one of the characters in the second game you can form a covenant with. Her covenant gives you Crit Chance+30% along with Accuracy +30%.

Jabberwock has a bizarre hobby of making snowmen In the basement in the Carroll River area, there’s a snowman in each cell representing Mary Sue, Red Hood, Alice, and you. There are various snowmen you can find throughout the game and some have creepy messages (like the one at Bandersnatch’s place), and some have useful hints (like the one at the Carroll River telling you not to pick “Girl, Daughter, Sister Mother”, addressing them as enemies. This is a reference to the prologue of the game, and a hint of how to access the Endings F and G). Both of these interactions happen if you have 0 SEN.Jabberwock thinks making snowmen is sad because even though she works hard to make them, they melt in the end. She watches the snowmen, but they only “wait to come to nothing, never growing, never rebelling”. She says that such transient creatures can bring you nothing but disappointment If you’re in a covenant with Jabberwock you can find her in the Hidden Snow Garden, although your SEN needs to be high for this interaction. The Hidden Snow Garden is full of snowmen and she will tell you how that’s her workshop. If you ask her why she makes snowmen she will tell you that she doesn’t remember because her brain is rotten, but she thinks she wanted to make something, “anything at all”. She will then get a brilliant idea and ask you if you’d like to be her child. If you say that it’s nonsense then she will comment how you’re going with the same words like a broken radio. If you tell her “Thanks, but no thanks”, she will tell you that there’s no need to be so cold, saying “just because big sis is headless, you’re looking down on her”. And if you say you’d like to be her son then she will start treating you like a child, saying stuff such as “Come to mommy”, and “Rattle-rattle…where was the rattle? I don’t recall leaving it with the twins”.Regardless of what you say, Jabberwock will apologize saying how she’s got bad old memories confusing her again, telling you to not take it seriously when she says something weird. She’ll start going out of the garden and then she will stop on the way to tell you that you need to get stronger if you want to go through the door ahead. Jabberwock says if you can conquer the Chaos Dungeon, then you’ll maybe be just fine even if you open it. If you have 0 SEN you will be able to fight the Abominable Hunter instead of regular Jabberwock. This is her nightmare form that’s way stronger than her usual one, you will get more souls by defeating her in this form.

If you found Meryphillia and beat her in a fight at least once, then you can meet Jabberwock during the events of Endings F and G at a certain part of the Little Girl’s Nightmare area. You will get ambushed by Jubjub, Bandersnatch, and Jabberwock. Meryphillia will come from behind Jubjub who’s blocking your path and smash her aside. This will give you the option to either fight the three of them with Meryphillia or to let Meryphillia deal with them all alone. Choosing to stay to fight with Meryphillia will lead to Jabberwock going behind her to take her head, but then Hein appears between them and protects Meryphillia, pushing Jabberwock away. Jabberwock will be delighted to see that now Hein wants to wake up, even though he got the happy dream he desired This will lead to a fight with the Three Nightmares Defeating them will lead to Jubjub and Bandersnatch giving up. They don’t want to fight anymore and that really irritates Jabberwock so she decides to stop them by freezing both of them in place through a curse seal. Jabberwock will say how she’s very disappointed, she will call them out for pretending that their souls are stained black, saying how she needs a single touch to know. Jabberwock says that their souls are mixed with impurities now, which means there’s no value, future, or hope for them. She only sees discolored ash that doesn’t have a joyous vibration or a blackened tint. She will then proceed to eliminate them right then and there. Meryphillia will say that Jabberwock reminds her of Baphomet and that she isn’t of this world. Hein will then say that Jabberwock belongs to the race of Cosmos, “they, who hold the finest corrupted souls, who have the power to control or destroy stars, Great Ones”. Jabberwock will say how it all began with a fairy tale given to a child starved for mother’s love. The child absorbed the story, and with the hatred to drive her, she set out to craft a cruel world with no salvation. Jabberwock calls that child a “gem” – she sought the creativity of the Great Ones, saying how before her very eyes was what she hoped for. Corpse Dragon Jabberwock will then become Wicked Dragon Jabberwock. She will go on to say that if there’s something inferior humans can do then the almighty Great Ones can do it as well. She observed for a very long time, at times even granting bits of wisdom, all to raise a pure black soul. Jabberwock will say that as long as there’s a fixation on hatred, you only need to “switch the rails a little and they’ll head straight for the final destination”. The one who created that child’s warped soul was no one other than her, citing how this is the joy of creation. Jabberwock will start laughing because it’s not a Great One she wanted to be, but rather a Creator. Jabberwock will laugh and say how she doesn’t want to be lumped in with the Great Ones because she has no dreams of ruling worlds and such. She just wants to see how black a soul can become, describing herself as a mother who watches over her kids, that can’t help but wish to root for them. Shortly after that, you will get into a fight with Jabberwock. If you manage to defeat this version of Jabberwock then she will finally be done for. Her only regret is that she won’t be able to see you as you struggle to reach the end. Meryphillia will then jump in the conversation to tell her that all Great Ones treat humans as nothing more than disposable toys, and even their children. Her point is that everything would be fine if they gave just a little bit of love, asking Jabberwock why she couldn’t understand that. Jabberwock doesn’t understand what she’s trying to say, so she says that there’s nothing fun about watching love. She will then disappear, and you won’t be seeing her anymore in this cycle, probably.

In Endings F and G, there’s a special fight with Jabberwock if you get cornered by her, Jubjub, and Bandersnatch. If you decide to stay with Meryphillia instead of leaving her to fight the three of them on her own, Jabberwock will start talking about a child starved for mother’s love during one part of the fight. Jabberwock gave a fairy tale to the child and the child absorbed the story and with the hatred to drive her, she set out to create a cruel world with no salvation. Jabberwock is infatuated with creating pure black souls, and she’s probably talking about Mary Sue, so in that case, the child’s mother would be Baphomet. Mary and Baphomet aren’t on the best terms in the first game even though she’s her mother, and the “cruel world” with no salvation the child created matches the description of Elysium. It seems like Mary Sue and Jabberwock know each other, and it would make sense because Jabberwock is also one of the Great Ones. So it’s possible that the one who corrupted Mary Sue and made her into a twisted personality was Jabberwock. During one of the Winterbell flashback sequences, there’s a mysterious visitor who comes to see Mary after she’s stripped of the Ability to Change, and Mary doesn’t seem too happy to be seeing her again. The mysterious visitor has a wicked smile and is calling for Mary, saying “Mary, Mary, my cute little Mary♡ Do you want out of here?”.

Jabberwock is the real identity of Mother Alice, who’s one of the Three Alices you have to choose at the beginning of each cycle. In that form, she’s very charming in many ways and is quite sweet towards you. But as a lonely woman, she is also a little bit possessive. During Ending H, she and Daughter Alice want to stop Grimm from leaving Wonderland. But Little Sister Alice intervenes, buying you time to get away – which leads to them stopping for a second to think, displaying for a short bit the Alices’ true identities. In both games, Jabberwock is mad and impulsive, but she also cares a lot about Grimm. She acts like a mother figure and can be assertive at times, one of the examples of this is when she forces you to an intercourse with her, and then suddenly reveals the truth of the role that cycles and the Great Ones play in the game. Jabberwock yearns for lustful deeds, so it’s never boring with her.

Just as it seems and like her full name suggests, Jabberwock is some kind of a corpse stiched together, but she’s also very beautiful. Her build is curvy, and in all of the right places as well, she has demon-like wings, tail, horns and bandaged up looking arms and legs. She has ribs coming out of her back and holding onto her thighs and boob, who appear to be bandaged up. She wears a loose purple cloak with her hood up, though it doesn't cover her much, so its mostly for show. Part of her face, her right eye area, appears to have been stiched there, as it is a dark skined part with a black sclera eye. She has long white hair and one blue eye glowing.

You've just stumbled upon Jabberwock looking at the flowers on Riverside, under the tree.
