Mr. Deer

* Normal
* Corrupted

**Mr. Deer** is a guest staying in Room 1 of the Rusty Lake Hotel. He initially comes to the Hotel with the intention of studying the Lake, and is drawing water from the Lake into his room via a pulley and bucket.

## Cube Escape: Case 23

Once Dale enters the Cabin in 1972, a deer stands outside of the door, staring at him. Soon after the deer will become decapitated, and replaced with a Corrupted Soul with antlers. The Soul follows Dale until it eventually attacks if he has not escaped quick enough. However, by successfully entering the elevator and escaping the Cabin, the Soul simply stares as the elevator descends into the Lake.

## Rusty Lake Hotel

He arrives with the other guests to the Hotel in 1893, and tells the player that he wants them to bring him a Bloody Mary tonight. When he is given a shrimp cocktail, he thanks the player but tells them that he is more of a meat person.

Inside his room, Mr. Deer waits for the player to make him his Bloody Mary. He has an ingredient list on the end table, which also lists a "special ingredient" needed: poison. While the Tabasco sauce and vodka are in his room and the blood is acquired by cutting Mr. Deer's antler, the poison must be made. There is a single seed hidden inside a butterfly, which when planted grows into a flower dropping poisonous seeds. The seeds must be ground into powder and mixed with water, creating the poison.

With the poison in the drink, the player can now give him his Bloody Mary. At first all seems normal, but he soon begins convulsing and foaming at the mouth until he dies. Mr. Deer's meat is harvested to cook the first dinner, and his memories are extracted to create a black cube, which turns him into a Corrupted Soul. He stays captive in Mr. Owl's room in a large tank until he and the other guests' Souls break free in 1894 and roam the Lake.

## Cube Escape: The Cave

In 1972, Mr. Crow pilots the Submarine down into the Lake to retrieve cubes from its depths. After finding the black, white, and blue cubes, he begins to search for the last one, the golden cube. Reaching its location, the Submarine is suddenly attacked by Mr. Boar's Corrupted Soul, who shatters the porthole. Mr. Crow leaves the Submarine and walks through the Forest, passing through Mr. Deer's Soul along with the other Hotel guests, until he reaches a large white cube. His Soul can be seen through the walls inside of the white cube, but he remains on the outside.

He is also seen on one of the cave murals showing Dale, with Mr. Owl's assistance, walking through the Hotel guests' Souls to the white cube found at the end of the game.

## Cube Escape: Paradox

Walking through the Forest in 1972, there is a lone deer that watches in silence as Dale passes by. When he finds the deer a second time, it has been decapitated leaving behind a blood trail. Following the trail leads to the deer's head and the Corrupted Soul that killed it. The Soul will attack him unless he fights back first.

Once Dale has become a Corrupted Soul, he must walk through the Forest again. He passes by the decapitated deer again, and follows a deer-like figure running through the woods until he catches him. This man is also Dale, wearing the deer's head, who tells him that he knows that he has made his choice, and he must use his Corrupted Soul.
