IDI

__NOTOC__
 
 
"Trapped within the confines of a screen. It really is ironic, isn't it, ?"
 
 
 
==Intro==
Idi is a sinister and enigmatic entity that lurks within the backrooms, especially on computer based levels. It's existence is believed to be born from the essence of the infamous "You Are An Idiot" trojan.
==Description and Appearance==
Idi is a parasitic-like entity that lurks within the backrooms. Lacking a physical form on it's own, it primarily exists as a swirling mass of corrupted, malicious code. It's main form is revealed when it infects computers nearby, hijacking the power systems and manifesting a physical form for itself. 
When Idi possesses a computer, physical changes will be noticable. The most notable one is the main monitor, which is also where Idi resides when it infects computers. Idi presents itself as a glitching and distorted smiling face, staring blankly. It can be seen constantly flashing, and text can be commonly seen above the face with the words, You Are An Idiot. It is also thought to be always looking at wanderers that pass by the computer when Idi is in it's passive state. This has sparked speculations that Idi is not just a simple malware that infects computers in the backrooms, but a being that is alive, trapped within the computer.
==Behaviors==
Despite not being a humanoid like other entities, Idi posseses a strong sense of sentience that is evident in the behaviors it exhibits. It is believed that Idi has the ability to jump to different computers through electromagnetic waves or by hijacking power cords. Some also believe that Idi has its own pocket dimension that it uses to enter it's host.
In it's aggression state, Idi also likes to toy around with wanderers. The most common way is Idi manifesting illusions and hallucinations that can trick the wanderer. They may try to project voices to the wanderer that they are safe or they are close to resources, or an exit. These delusions can put the wanderers mind in a state of a trance or ease, making them uknowingly walk towards the source of sound. Once at the source of the voice, there are 2 possibilities. Idi will either deal a handful of injuries through unknown means to the wanderer if it believes it is, "not a good enough victim." Otherwise, they might also suck the wanderer into the PC. Wanderers speculate that Idi has the ability to clone itself through this process. It is also speculated that the fact that Idi likes to toy with wanderers is connected to its mysterious origins.
Idi is believed to take pleasure and entertainment from the fear and confusion it inflicts on it's prey, which is the wanderers. Idi is relentless when it comes to pursuing its victims. Idi lacks any feeling or sense of mercy, never relenting until the wanderer has been driven beyond the point of madness or insanity, or consumed entirely. Idi's personality and behavior is reflected by its origins as a corrupted, maliformed entity born from hate and resentment.
Idi can even affect other computers, including those not controlled by any of its clones. It is suspected to also affect devices other than computers. The effect is thought to get more powerful the closer they approach near the Idi clone. First, one may notice a little delay in inputs on their phone or laptop. They may attempt to click a button or open an app, which takes a second or two to load. Then, depending on the device, wanderers may be randomly redirected to another website or a new tab. As one approaches closer, subtle errors or glitches on their phone or laptop may become more noticeable, along with popups suddenly appearing. Wanderers have begun to take advantage of this chain of events to determine whether Idi or a clone is near.
==Origins==
The way Idi spreads is similar to that of a virus or a plague. However, this has sparked many questions and theories on where the first one came from. The catalyst, the source of it all. However, an unknown log has been recovered, containing information that may have clues relating to Idi's origins.

M.W Chris: Alright, is the camera on?
M.W Lacey: Yeah. Still don't get why you wanted me to get it in the first place.
M.W Chris: So people could hear this, so we could upload this to the database.
M.W Lacey: Ahh, I see. So get to the point now.
M.W Chris: Ok, so you remember that entity we recently discovered? The one about that weird computer face, thing?
M.W Lacey: Oh, you mean Idi?
M.W Chris: Yeah. And you know how we have been trying to figure out it's origins for a couple days now? 
M.W Lacey: Yeah. Why?
M.W Chris: Well... [Opens a nearby door]
M.W Lacey: Woah! How did, what is this?
M.W Chris: We sent out a team to capture a nearby specimen of an Idi clone. For some reason, it has the same memories and feelings as the original and first Idi specimen. Maybe we can use this to get some information on its origins.
M.W Lacey: Yeah. Although, how is it contained? Is it in some kind of glass dome or something? 
M.W Chris: Yes, it is. 
They walk over to the Idi clone, who is squirming, trying to break free.
Idi Clone: When I get out of this dome, I will kill every one of you in here, I swear I will!
M.W Chris: Stop squirming. We want to get some information out of you. We want to know the origin of you. You have the same memories of the first Idi specimen.
Idi Clone: Fine, but after this, I will not help you anymore.
M.W Lacey: Alright.
Idi Clone: I'll explain it in first person, like I was the original Idi.
M.W Chris: Perfect.

So before I became what I am, I was like what you all were, just a regular wanderer. I was with my friends in a classroom in my old school in your so called, Frontrooms. We play pranks on eachother, none that are harmful, or atleast not intentionally.
So one day we were in a classroom after dismissal, which had been dirty and messy since the custodian hadn't come yet. I was near an old computer sitting on a table. The computer is similar to the one I possess right now. One of my friends that was running around the classroom for whatever reason accidently tripped on something, accidently falling on to me. I then fell backwards towards the computer, and seemingly noclipped into the backrooms.
Due to me falling into the computer while noclipping, it was almost as if I just, fused together into one entity. After waking up, I saw that I was on a random table in a dark empty space. I immediently tried to move, but I couldnt. That's when I realized that I was trapped. Trapped within the confines of this wretched screen! I tried to play a sound through the computer, calling for help. Surprise surprise, nobody answered. 
I began to feel resentment, and hatred. It has been almost a year since I noclipped here, trapped in the screen, and I have been building up anger towards humans. Almost a year of calling for help, nobody answered. And the fact that my friends practically caused me to end up in this situation only added to my anger. And thats how I became what I am today.

M.W Chris: That seems, weird and fuzzy. You were just in a classroom and you happened to noclip into the backrooms, with an old computer that happened to have the You Are An Idiot virus?
Idi Clone: Yes, and no. I may not be the original Idi, but I still have a great amount of memory from the first one, though it has slowly begun to fade away over the course of months. 
M.W Lacey: Oh. And one more question. Why does the first specimen call himself, Idi? 
Idi Clone: Since he fused together with the computer that had the you are an idiot virus, he decided to call himself Idi for some reason. 
M.W Lacey: Oh, thanks, I guess. We will leave you alone now. Chris, should we turn the camera off now? I think we got enough.
M.W Chris: Oh right. Let me try to..
