**Agent** is the main protagonist of *Penguinronpa.* They are Non-binary, using exclusively they/them pronouns. Agent's talent is the **Ultimate Secret Agent**, and they are noted to be one of the top agents in both the Penguin Secret Agency and the Elite Penguin Force.

## Appearance

Agent is a light blue penguin wearing only a black necktie. After they assume the position of Director in Chapter 2, the Director's symbol appears on their tie.

## Personality

Agent is a smart, intelligent calculated penguin with a knack for solving cases. However, they are fairly timid and emotional wreck, usually getting startled if someone so much as enters a room too suddenly. Agent is kind toward everyone, and is always eager to help someone out. Agent also tends to be sarcastic, typically mocking the absurdity of the events occurring around them in their inner thoughts. Agent is also quite implusive, often jumping into situations against their better judgement, sometimes due to frustation and stress. Above all, Agent is loyal to the PSA and EPF, valuing the safety of others and the secrecy of their identity over anything else.

### **Spoilers**

In Chapter 3, Agent reveals to Dot that they do not actually remember what their true identity is. Agent is paranoid that they may have something to do with the killing game, and is unsure if they can even trust themselves. Because of this, they would rather put their trust in those around them (Contrasting with Dot's ideals after Chapter 2).

## Canon Timeline

### **Prologue**

Agent is first seen finishing up their latest PSA mission, which ends by them being teleported away by Herbert using a Spy Phone along with a "strange machine". Agent then wakes up at the Dock with Rookie, and eventually makes their way to the Coffee Shop where they meet several other penguins.

Herbert returns at the Snow Forts, although with a drastically different appearance, along with a new name: Monobert. He informs Agent and the other penguins that they are the only ones left on the island, and that everyone else has been teleported to a new world so that Monobert can take over Club Penguin Island for himself.

The teleporter did not work on the fourteen penguins however, and so in order to get rid of them, Monobert announces that he's going to have them kill each other and get away with it in order to be sent to the new world with the other penguins.

### **Chapter 1**

#### **Daily Life**

Agent investigates the Ski Hill with Rookie and Klutzy, discovering that there are forcefields surrounding the entire island. Their group then travels to the Pizza Parlour, finding out that other particpents are going have a pizza party and discuss their findings, to which Agent explains the forcefields their group found. At night, they spend some time meditating with Sensei outside, after ponding about the Sport Shop outside.. The following day, several arguments break out in the Coffee Shop following Monobert's motive of a traitor among the penguins, and nearly everyone leaves the Coffee Shop frustrated. Agent is left alone with Aunt Arctic, and comforts her after her plans to bring everyone closer together failed.

Agent then talks with Rookie, who is paranoid and afraid of the killing game. Later, Agent finds Klutzy and follows him to the Tool Shed, where Klutzy shows them a mysterious blueprint. To which Agent realises Klutzy isn't on Monobert's side and decides to let Klutzy sleep inside their igloo. The next morning, Agent wakes up, realising Klutzy had disappeared from their igloo and goes outside to look for him. They then find out Rookie is trying plan another pancake party to make up for yesterday. While attempting to wake Aunt Arctic up, Agent and Rookie discover her dead body inside her igloo.

#### **Deadly Life**

After investigating the island for clues of Aunt Arctic's murder, Agent and the rest of the penguins are led into the Box Dimension for a trial. The trial uncovers that Klutzy teleports to Monobert's base after every night and thus has an alibi for the night. Gary then reveals to the rest of the survivors that Aunt Arctic is the Director of the PSA and EPF, and likely was wearing her uniform when she was murdered. Using the evidence they had gathered, such as the spot of blood in the snow and Aunt Arctic's burnt director's uniform.

Agent determines that Sensei is the culprit, to which he confesses, explaining he killed her thinking she was the traitor. After explaining his motive he is then executed by Monobert. Agent is furious following the death of two of their friends, and proclaims to Monobert that this will never happen again. After the trial, Rookie decides he wants to stay outside to think about Sensei's final word, to which Agent leaves him and heads back to their igloo.

### **Chapter 2**

#### **Daily Life**

Agent investigates the recently opened Lighthouse with Jet Pack Guy, Franky, and Paige. There, they discover a piece of sheet music that puts anyone who hears it to sleep. Agent has a strange dream where they encounter a buff version of Rookie who proceeds to punch them in the face. Once the three agents are awoken, they then gather some jet pack fuel for Jet Pack Guy, to which they head back to the Coffee Shop to relay their findings.

Later that day, Agent and the rest of the EPF go to Rookie's igloo in attempt to cheer him up. With the remaining agents gathered together, they decide to nominate Agent as the new Director of the EPF, following their previous leader's death, which Agent humbly accepts the position of. As they go back to their igloo, they promise Aunt Arctic that they won't let her down.

The next day, Agent goes flying with Jet Pack Guy to the Tallest Mountain, where they find several strange objects; notably a spy camera and a Klutzy costume. The following day, the penguins begin planning a party to distract themselves from Monobert's motive. Agent is tasked with gathering DVDs from the Book Room with Klutzy, to which they encounter Dot, who suddenly passed out while trying to make the pizzas for said party, Agent, along side Klutzy, Jet Pack Guy and Paige help clean up the mess in the Pizza Parlour. Afterwards, Agent decides to sleep in their igloo with Klutzy until the party starts. At the party, the strange song from the sheet music plays, putting everyone there to sleep.

Agent has a nightmare where they are trapped in a sea of what appears to be several penguin flippers. After Agent wakes up, along side everyone at the party, Cadence and Franky burst into the Lighthouse to alert everyone that the Ice Rink is on fire. Everyone quickly rushes over to the Ice Rink, where they find *Rockhopper* dead.

#### **Deadly Life**

Agent investigates the Ice Rink with Gary, who lends Agent his Electromagnetic Fishing Rod 1000 to search for clues in the Ice Rink. Agent spends the rest of the investigation with Rookie, gathering clues at the Lighthouse, Dojo, and Pizza Parlor. During the second trial, after proving Cadence and Franky's alibis, by being the first two to discover Rockhopper, thus activating the BDA annoucement. Agent is led to believe that the evidence points to Paige being the culprit. After playing the strange sheet music themselves to put Paige to sleep, Agent takes her whistle to confirm that it was the sound used to wake everyone up. Paige completely breaks down in front of the survivors, much to the horror of the remaining EPF, over the nightmares she had suffered from sleepy song. After Paige's execution, Agent encounters Dot before heading to their igloo, where she hastily takes Paige's whistle from Agent's flippers before explaining herself.

### **Chapter 3**

#### **Daily Life**

Agent goes to the Coffee Shop to meet up with everyone else in the morning, where Dot arrives and proclaims that she isn't going to trust anyone anymore after Paige's betrayal the night prior. Agent attempts to calm her down, but ultimately fails. Agent then investigates the Mine with Gary, Rory, and Klutzy, where they find a small computer. That night, Agent encounters Franky in the Town, who warns them not to touch the Thin Ice arcade cabinet. Agent ignores Franky's warning and investigates the game anyway, for the sake of making sure what they were up against. Upon starting up the game, Agent is put into an Execution Simulator, which quickly fails for them.

The next day, Agent spends time with Gary and Klutzy at the Cove after once again failing to reason with Dot. The following day, Agent watches the play performed by Sam, Amy, Rookie, and Jet Pack Guy. Agent (along with Klutzy) appears to be the only one who actually enjoyed the play. Afterward, Agent and Klutzy go cart surfing deep into the Mine Tunnels, where Agent is whacked with a plank of wood by Jet Bot after attempting to escape to the Wilderness. Agent is knocked out, and once again has a nightmare with the sea of penguin flippers. Agent wakes up to the sound of a jackhammer, and finds Dot exploring the tunnels as well. While hesitant to trust Agent, Dot makes it clear she doesn't want them hurt, so she takes them (and Klutzy) in her mine cart and safely returns them to the Mine.

Agent then encounters Rory, who is drilling in the Cave Mine to try to escape. Rory offers Agent to have pizza in the morning with him, and Agent happily accepts. The next morning, after Rory nor Klutzy hadn't shown up at the Pizza Parlor yet, Agent decides to search for them. Using the ladder in the Forest, Agent goes underground to the Hidden Lake, where they discover Franky's dead body. Shortly afterward, a second body discovery announcement is played, informing everyone to go to the Boiler Room instead. Agent sprints over, quickly running into "Klutzy" on their way, and finds Cadence's body inside the boiler.

#### **Deadly Life**

Agent investigates the Hidden Lake with Sam and Amy first, then heads back to the Boiler Room to enter the Night Club. Agent, Amy, Rookie, and Jet Pack Guy then decide to check out the Ski Village, where they find Klutzy trapped in a cage. During the third trial, it is revealed that the "Klutzy" that Agent ran into before finding Cadence's body was actually Dot in disguise.

This information helps Agent reach the conclusion that Cadence's killer, and thus the blankened in this case can only be Rory. The rest of the survivors, upon watching Monobert's video, discovered that everything was set up in order to have Franky kill both Cadence and Klutzy in order help Franky escape. After Rory is executed, Agent attempts to reason with Dot once more. Frustrated, Dot claims she has no reason to trust Agent, and if they want her to trust them, they need to reveal their true identity to her. Agent is unable to do so, and while Dot is initially angry at this, Agent quickly explains that they can't tell her because even they don't know what their true identity is. Agent begins to cry, telling Dot how they're terrified that they may be involved with the killing game, and how they can't even trust themselves. Dot realizes her mistakes, and quickly begins to comfort Agent.

### **Chapter 4**

#### **Daily Life**

The fourth chapter begins with Agent having another nightmare, this time showing the final events of the PSA Mission, *"The Veggie Villain"*. Agent wakes up in Dot's igloo, where she explains to them that they fell asleep in her arms the night before, so she took them to her igloo. Later that day, Agent investigates the Outback Pond and Herbert's Camp with Gary and Klutzy.

Agent asks Gary if he's doing alright, and he responds by telling Agent that he thinks of himself as a father to the EPF agents, and that he will do anything to ensure their safety. Agent then encounters Rookie and Jet Pack Guy in the Lodge Attic, where they find an inflatable octopus in a wooden crate thanks to Klutzy's help. Upon seeing the octopus, Agent begins to have another nightmare, despite being wide awake. This time Agent views a giant geyser, and quickly wakes up after hearing Dot, Rookie, and Gary repeat ominous messages.

After that, Agent goes with Dot and Klutzy to the Stage, where they find Sam and Amy. The four of them perform a play using miscellaneous costumes, and then each go home for the night. The next day, Agent meets up with Dot at the Mine, where she takes them down a series of tunnels to show Agent the Robo-Locator, one of Gary's old inventions. After looking at the machine, the two are found by Jet Bot, who tries attacking them with lasers. They discover that Jet Bot is only interested in attacking Agent, and so Dot gives them her Klutzy disguise in order to escape unnoticed. After leaving the Mine,

Agent goes to the Ski Village to find Klutzy bleeding. Agent takes the wounded Klutzy to Gary's igloo, where he is given first-aid. Agent then takes Klutzy to the Ski Lodge with Dot to get some rest, where Dot sings Agent a lullaby to help them sleep. That night, Agent has yet another nightmare, where Monobert appears in a sea of flames, as well as the mysterious flippers.

Monobert claims to Agent that "the EPF will fall again". After being encouraged by the unknown voice, Agent fights back and tells Monobert that they're not going to play his game anymore. Agent's nightmare abruptly ends, and they wake up the next morning in a panic. Agent quietly leaves the Ski Lodge so not to wake up the sleeping Dot, and finds Klutzy's corpse outside.

#### **Deadly Life**

Agent has a breakdown at the sight of Klutzy's corpse, leading to Dot to run out of the Ski Lodge to discover Klutzy's body as well. Agent runs away in tears, running back to their igloo and being unable to investigate at all, leaving Dot to lead the investigations. The rest of the survivors initially struggle with the trial, as they were used to Agent leading everyone, but they all press on.

Everyone else then figures out that Klutzy had been frozen to death with the use of the Thingamabob 3000. Though the survivors were stumped on the culprit, leading to a Scrum Debate over wherever or not Agent is suspicous due to their silence. But Dot figures out that the only one who could have done this would be Klutzy himself.

Agent then quickly objects, leading to the first Rebuttal Snowdown in the series. Agent then insists that there would be no reason for their friend to take his own life, but Dot winds up proving he had been trying to take his own life via the scratch mark that had been growing throughout the killing game. Agent then tearfully accepts that the blackened is Klutzy, as they tell Dot to recap the case to make sure there aren't any doubts.

Post trial, Agent breaks down, blaming themself for Klutzy's suicide, with Dot assuring that Klutzy still loved them, showing them the ball scrap that he had been holding onto. The both of them hug it and Agent asks if they could sleep inside of her igloo. But as soon as they arrive, Gary then rushes in, telling everyone that the Sports Shop has been opened and he recieved a video message on his computer.

The rest of the survivors all gather around in Gary's office, watching the video and learning that not only Herbert isn't actually Monobert, but in fact a robot, They learn that Klutzy and Herbert had been working together to save the penguins, by throwing off Monobert's programming by doing something unexpected so Herbert can briefly break through and both reveal what he knows about the killing game and send a group along they're way to help the penguins, albeit he didn't know at the time Klutzy was going to take his own life.

The survivors stare in shock over the video but the EPF agents then start piecing together what might be going on. Sam and Amy then ask for context on what they are talking about, leading to Agent to explain the events of Operation Robotomy, where the EPF saved the island from the Test Bots and eventually The Ulitmate Protobot 10000.

Despite that, the survivors remained stumbed on what Herbert sent their way, most of all Agent, who flies into a rage over still not having any answers on why Klutzy took his own life. Agent eventually tries to break into the PSA HQ to confront Monobert about the truth, only for Monobert to catch them in the act. Monobert then prepares to execute them for breaking a rule, but not before yelling at them for constantly defeating him over and over, to Agent's confusion. This then leads to Agent's failed execution where they get saved by the Elite Puffles and Monobert gets knocked out by Chirp's music.

### **Chapter 5**

#### **Daily Life (Post Chapter 4)**

The chapter begins with the surviving penguins looking in shock over what happened, but they piece together what is going on. Gary then points out that Monobert left the PSA HQ open which means they are able to shut him down. Gary gets the Robotomy Gadget and Agent then uses it on Monobert, shutting him down for seemingly good. The Agents then introduce the Elite Puffles to Sam and Amy, revealing theirrespective Ulitmate Talents.

After the Elite Puffles introduction, the remaining survivors then choose to rest for the night after a long day and investigate the PSA HQ the next day. They also trap the deactivated Monobert in one of Pop's bubbles in case he actives once again. Agent, Gary and the Elite Puffles remain, as Gary explains to Agent that the Sports Shop is his home and someone needs to stay behind to take care of the Elite Puffles.

After a conversation about Klutzy's death and assurance from Gary, Agent then leaves with Chill to head back to their igloo, but not before encountering Rookie who wanted to investigate the forcefields to see if they disappeared after Herbert contacted them. They then learn the forcefields are still up and that they are going to have to wait to meet up with Herbert.

The two of them decide to head back to their igloos to rest for the night. During their walk home, Rookie asks about how Agent is feeling after Klutzy's death to which they open up about how it was the last thing they needed with how much stress they've been under, Rookie asks what has been worrying Agent which leads to them opening up about their amnesia.

Rookie is shocked by this but he assures them they'll find out about their identity. Rookie then opens up about his conflict with Jet Pack Guy and Agent assures that him and Jet Pack Guy are perfect for one another and they will forgive each other at some point. After the two of them hug it out, the two of them arrive at the Igloo Village and Rookie returns to his igloo. Agent then chooses to stay at Dot's igloo for the night, to which they learn Dot had stayed awake, waiting for them. The two of them then finally go to sleep.

#### **(Day 1)**

Agent wakes up in Dot's igloo, the two of them have a conversation about how Klutzy's death affected Agent and Dot assures them they need time to process their grief, much like how Dot had to process her grief in losing Paige, and that she'll be there for Agent much like how Agent was there for her in her despair. The two of them and Chill head to the Coffee Shop to meet up with the rest of the survivors, besides Gary and the other Elite Puffles who arrive shortly after they do.

The penguins then decide to split the Elite Puffles with a different penguin so they wouldn't play while they try to investigate, with Agent getting both Bouncer and Chill. The penguins then begin to investigate the PSA HQ. Starting off the I.S.E.E.U, which deletes it's own data as soon as they boot it up. Gary then tries to recover the lost data on the computer, which will take 24 hours to be fully restored. Gary then also retrieves the Spy Phones from one of the drawers and giving one to each of the seven penguins. Gary notices that the teleportation in the Spy Phone is busted but they all still have access to it's features, such as making calls and having access to a wrench, pair of scissors and comb respectively. Gary and Flare then leaves the remaining survivors to investigate the rest of the HQ.

The surviving penguins then investigate the Gadget Room to which they discover that Wheel Bot had been missing since Klutzy's death, due to the Test Bots all now being fully charged at this point. Dot suggests they all look for the Robo Locator inside the cavern, to which Agent insists that everyone waits till tomorrow to investigate there due to the stress of the events around them. The survivors then investigate the EPF Command Room and retireve a single Spy Gadget from the center table, with everyone deciding Agent should hold onto it.

Afterwards the survivors begin to look through the PSA case files, uncovering the mission "The Veggie Villain", the mission that the agents didn't finish prior to the start of killing game. They then learn from the case file that Herbert blew up the PSA HQ with a popcorn bomb, leading to the PSA being replaced by the EPF. The survivors are shocked to learn this and wind up even more confused as they look up the EPF case files, detailing operations all the way up to Operation Tri-umph in 2016. The survivor begin theorise what could the cause of these future files but Shadow Guy eventually winds up shutting down those theories of out stress. The survivors then decide to call their investigations for the day.

Agent then decides that they should give the two non-agents some training missions, in order to prepare for both the Test Bots and Monobert's eventual return. Sam is a little apprehensive at first but Amy talks him into it. The agents then choose to do Training Mission 4845524F, to which Agent guides the superheroes through the mission while Rookie, Dot and Jet Pack Guy all roleplay the mission for them, being a citizen is being attacked by a shark in the cove, thus starting Mission 14. This goes on for the rest of the day until night.

Agent then contacts Gary via the Spy Gadget to check up on him. Gary talks about how he is having a difficult time with his inventions, but mentions that what he is inventing will save everyone, Gary also mentions that the other survivors will likely not see him tomorrow as he will be busy inside his office. After a bit more talking, Agent says that they are worried for him but the rest of the survivors decide to head back home and sleep, with Agent once again sleeping at Dot's igloo, along side Bouncer, Chill and Loop.

After they eat the pancakes, they all arrive to the PSA HQ just in time for computer's data to be restored. They being to investigate, starting Mission 15. What they find is a program that is keeping the forcefields up, to which they are unable to due to not having the password for it. They then look inside a folder showing files for all of the currently alive penguins. They are able to look up everyone files except for Agent's, which is locked behind a password. The other folder consists of the non participants in the killing game to which the folders for the Elite Puffles and Herbert are also locked behind a password, but they are able to look up The Test Bots and Monobert's folders.

After looking up everything they could, Dot, Rookie and Jet Pack Guy then head out for the Caverns, looking for the Robo Locator, leaving Agent, Sam and Amy in the PSA HQ, to which Agent decides to train them again, this time via the Command Coach, starting Mission 16. They boot up the first PSA Mission that Agent had went on, coming across a VR Aunt Arctic. The three of them are shaken seeing Aunt Arctic after seeing her die in the killing game but eventually they decide to finish the mission, deciding it would be good for them if they were in a world before the killing game for a little bit. But once they complete the mission, Agent breaks, saying they miss Aunt Arctic. Once they are out of the Command Coach, Agent realises that they can see Klutzy again in the Command Coach, before Sam and Amy could stop them, Agent boots up Questions for a Crab.

Agent quickly frees VR Klutzy from his cage but he quickly runs aways from them, as he did in the original mission. They keep trying to chase Klutzy, ignoring Sam and Amy's pleas to stop. This then leads the three of them inside Herbert's base, to which he traps the three of them inside of a cage. Herbert then begins to explain his backstory to the three of them, to Sam and Amy's curiosity and Agent's frustration, Eventually, Herbert leaves and Sam and Amy confront Agent over their behaviour, to which Agent snaps at the both of them for not understanding their grief, remarking that they would do the same thing they're doing if they lost the other. Agent then quickly apologises, after their out burst and the three of them talk it out until they all eventually leave the Command Coach. Agent thanks the superheroes for being their friends and three of them head back to their igloos, with Agent going to Dot's once again.

Jet Pack Guy then notices the magnifying glass that was on the mountain outside of the Command Coach and then points to the geyser flooding the island. Agent remember seeing said geyser in one of their nightmares and the penguins piece together that they are in a mission that they don't remember, one that they all read up in the case files. The survivors then try to head to the Command Room in order to shut off the Command Coach from the inside, getting them out of the mission. But during their trek down and to the Sports Shop, now changed to the Everyday Phoning Facility, Jet Pack Guy, Rookie and Dot all get hit with a laser that neurtalises them, turning them into nothing more than code. Agent, Sam and Amy then encounter the Test Bots in the Command Room, who have transported their code into the simulation.

The Test Bots then monologue to the penguins about getting revenge for their master after Agent had shut him down. The Test Bots also mention that they have been neutralising the penguins in order to force them into a deep sleep like coma, one they neutralise every penguin, they'll destroy the Command Coach, killing every penguin and puffle inside. Agent pleas to the the Test Bots that Monobert would be angry at them for killing everyone instead of letting them kill each other in the killing game, but the Test Bots ignore them, electing to shoot Sam and Amy while sparing Agent so Monobert can execute them for real. Agent then jumps in front of the Superheroes, getting hit by the lasers themself, Agent monologues to their friends and tells them to shut down the Command Coach before being neutralised for good.

Once Sam and Amy defeat the Test Bots and shut down the Command Coach, waking the agents from thier deep sleep.

Before Agent heads back to Dot's igloo, Sam stops them to talk to them about their amnesia. Sam mentions that he felt uncomfortable over the talk of mind erasure and mentions some theories he's had, mentioning he doesn't see a reason for their memory to be erased. The two of them talk about how depressed they've been throughout the killing game to which Agent askes what had been keeping him going through the killing game. Sam then mentions that he's been doing it for **her**, only to stop himself, and when Agent asks him what he is talking about, Sam runs away in tears. Agent tries to follow him but he seemingly disappears after leaving the Pizza Parlour. Agent then decides to go back to Dot's igloo for the night.

#### **(Day 4/Pre Deadly Life)**

The next morning, Agent has another nightmare with the sea of flippers, this time Herbert is also trapped inside of the sea of flippers too.

Monoert begins taunting them once again with Agent insisting that this is only a nightmare and that they'll never see him again. They then wake in a panic once again, with Dot calming them down. The two of them are about to head to the Coffee Shop before they realise that their puffles had disappeared over night, Jet Pack Guy and Rookie also show up mentioning that their puffles had disappeared too.

There is another crash in the Boiler Room to which they discover the Boiler is missing from the Boiler Room. The agents have a hunch and quickly rush over to The Plaza and discover The Stage's Booth has also gone missing. The agents, realising the Test Bots are back, quickly head over to the PSA HQ in order to prepare, but inside the Sports Shop, they discover that Monobert has disappeared. And as they head inside of the HQ, they discover Herbert's body inside.

#### **Deadly Life**

The agents stare at Herbert's body in shock, and realise that they still haven't found Gary, Sam, Amy and the Elite Puffles. But after the Test Bots appear on the I.S.E.E.U seemingly alive and tell the agent they'll be holding a trial for Herbert's murder, they begin investigating. They first look at Herbert's body, realising there isn't much evidence around it other than the hole in his body and the burn marks around it. They then look at the Robo Locator and discover that the Test Bots have a small boost of power after being shut down and that their locations are unknown. The agent then go up to Gary's Office and look at his computer, revealing a text conversation between Gary and Herbert, revealing that Gary has been working on his invention in Herbert's base the whole time. As soon as Jet Pack Guy retrieves Gary's spare of glasses, they head back to the Gadget Room that had been locked when they arrived to the HQ. As soon as Agent opens up the door, to the horror of the remaining agents, they discover Gary's body.

The agents begin crying over the death of Gary but their grief is cut off once again by the Test Bots taunting them once again, reminding them that a penguin has murder both Herbert and Gary. Once the Test Bot's brodcast ends, the agents struggle to even start again until Jet Pack Guy rallys up the rest of the agents to investigate for the sake of their fallen friend, leading everyone to pick up their investigations once again. Gary has the same wound as Herbert but the burns are more severe. They also find a note in his pocket, giving them the password "11037", which allows them to disable to the forcefields and access the files of the Elite Puffles and Herbert, but not Agent's mysteriously enough. Their investigations are quickly cut by the Test Bots teleporting a Popcorn Bomb into the HQ and the bomb explodes with the agents locked inside of the HQ.

The agents are briefly knocked out with Jet Pack Guy being trapped in a window in Gary's Office. Rookie then rushes and changes to Super Rookie in order to save him, with the two of them apologises and come to a loving understanding with one another. The agents then travel to the top of the Ski Hill to go to The Wilderness, since the forcefields are gone, to which they find a pile of various objects. Rookie then gets an idea and builds the X-Treme Jetpack Sled Cartz from his comics books. The agents jump in and quickly travel to The Wilderness.

The agents arrive and contiune investigating. And they come across Flare outside, the Elite Puffle then bursts into tears and the agent comfort him, realising he must have witnessed Herbert's and Gary's deaths. Flare then companies the other agents throughout The Wilderness as they come across the opening of Herbert's base, though unable to access it due to the password ontop. The agents then discover the password in Herbert's old base, in a pile of dirt and they arrive back, unlocking the hatch that still needs a key. Rookie accidently stood on the key so Agent gets Flare to quickly repair it, with Agent hearing something in the Wilderness in the process. They then open the hatch with the repaired key and they enter.

The agents investigate the base, finding various papers scattered around written by Herbert detailing his time prior and during the killing game. Notably penguins started disappearing at some point and Herbert is inventing something with Gary that could save everyone, including those who've died. Finally they stumble into a room with the invention that the two of them have been working on, specfically the Power Amplifier and the Shutterdown 2999, both damaged and covered in ash. The agents realise that this is the true crime scene, but as soon as they figure it out, Monobert appears on a computer to the penguins, telling everyone it's time for the trial and quickly teleporting everyone in the Box Dimension.

The agents find Sam and Amy trapped inside cages in the Box Dimension, but the both of them are left out for the trial. The Test Bots then begin explaining the rules of the trial once again but also explain how Monobert is going to make his appear, saying that he has been reunited with his original body. And soon enough, Monobert reveals himself as the Ultimate Protobot 10000, with most of Elite Puffles trapped inside of The Stage Booth. Protobot then quickly kidnaps Flare as well and begins to prepare the trial, but not before The Test Bots celebrate their master's return. The Test Bots also mention that they running low of power due to how of their resources they used to rebuild him. Protobot decides to give The Test Bot a box of upgrades, only for the box to be revealed as a spike trap, which crushes the Test Bots in many pieces.

The survivors are completely shocked over what happened to The Test Bots, to which Protobot begind taunting them, monologuing about how he is the Ultimate Villain and will take over the Universe. The surviving characters then point out that he can't be the Ultimate Villain, since he hasn't tried to destroy the penguins at any point and that he is a lacky for the true masterminds. Protobot then makes a deal with the survivors that they can debate about this if they can solve the murders to which they start their discussion.

Before Agent is able to explain anything, Sam and Amy quickly confess to being responsible for Herbert's and Gary's death, much to the shock of the agents. And to further explain, the two of them reveal themselves as the real Shadow Guy and Gamma Gal, also known as the Ultimate Superhero and Ultimate Superheroine respectively. Agent, Dot and Jet Pack Guy are shocked to learn this but Rookie quickly begin fanboying, explaining the powers the both of them have, to which the superheroes point out that the comic books are indeed real. Protobot then gets bored and decides to show everyone the murders on a TV screen.

The video shows that Sam and Amy were teleported to Herbert's base and Gary managed to hack in and unlock their powers again. Herbert then tries to explain to the superheroes about the truth of the killing game, only to be cut off by Sam, who tries to shut him with his Shadow Wave, stating he can't let anyone find out the truth. Amy then throws her Plasma Glow at the two of them, to which the powers combine into lightning, killing Herbert instantly. The three penguins are shocked by Herbert's death but Gary tries to get his Shutterdown 2999 to work out of desperation. Sam tries to warn that this invention will not work without being able to explain anything, but Amy and Gary talk him into it with the small chance everyone who has died, including Herbert could be brought back. Sam and Amy accidently wind up powering the machine too much, resulting in an explosion, killing Gary. After grieving the Gadget Guy, the two are confronted by The Test Bots who teleport them to the Box Dimension for the trial, and teleporting Herbert and Gary to the HQ for the agents to discover.

The agents are shocked by what they saw, with Agent realising that Shadow Guy might be the traitor. To which Sam tries to deny it with a Rebuttal Snowdown but he quickly confesses. Sam explains that he had to do a bunch of dirty work for Protobot and that he did actually have his powers initially unlike Amy. Sam also mentions he was meant to kill Klutzy at the beginning of the killing game, which Sam didn't do, resulting in Aunt Arctic and Sensei's deaths. Sam then explains he quit as the traitor and lost his powers, but Protobot then decides, to the horror of Sam, to show the video of the deal Sam made with Protobot. The deal shows that Sam was forced to keep quiet about the truth of killing game, or else Amy would be murdered.

Soon afterwards, Protobot cuts the trial short and forces the surviviors to vote on who is the blackened on their PSA Phones. Sam and Amy then begin arguing to vote themselves as a sacrifice, leading to an Argument Amendment between Agent and the two superheroes. Agent then convinces the survivors to not vote at all, wanting to save Sam and Amy from dying, much to Protobot's annoyance. The survivors all agree to not vote, but as soon as Protobot reveals the votes, Amy recieved one vote, from Protobot. Amy then turns out to be the wrong blankened between the two of them, to which Protobot then prepares to executed everyone besides Sam.

Before the penguins and puffles are crushed to death by a building during their execution, Sam manages to use his Shadow Mode to obsorb the shadow of the building and catch it before it crushes everyone. He quickly rescues the agents and their puffles and Amy before confronting Protobot, ready to fight him. This leads to a fight scene that eventually leads to Sam's death, by getting deleted from existence. Once Protobot returns to the Box Dimension, he declares the trial is over but the survivors insist they will find the truth of the killing game. Protobot then prepare to execute everyone once again, saying that the Higher Ups didn't even want the characters to survive and it will make an effective ending to the killing game.

Before Protobot is able to execute everyone with massive laser, the Test Bots arrive to create a forcefield to protect the penguins and puffles, mentioning that their destruction reverted them back to Gary's programming. After arguing back and forth, the Test Bots then show a video message from Gary (in his AS3 design) talking about how the island is in huge danger and his video message will reset the simulation the characters are trapped to how the island was prior to the killing game. The simulation goes completely black for the characters and the last thing Agent sees is a vision of themself in the Waddle On Party about how they'll make sure their island doesn't die.

### **Chapter 6**

#### **Daily Life**

Agent wakes up in their igloo in a panic, to which they start processing the events of yesterday, from losing Herbert, Gary and Sam, to the Test Bots saving them and the vision of themself without a clue of what it means. Their thoughts are quickly interrupted by Protobot's morning annoucement on their spy phones, telling everyone to come to the Snow Forts. Agent initially struggles to leave their igloo due to the trauma of the various bodies they've discovered but they quickly perk up, reminding themself of Gary and Herbert's desire to bring everyone back to life. They leave their igloo and meet up with everyone in the newly updated Town Center. The surviving penguins and puffles are bewildered but they figure out that it's an effect of Gary's video message that altered the simulation they're all in. The surviving penguins then head to the Snow Forts.

Protobot appears the survivors in the Clock Tower monitor, changed back to it's usual design. Although Protobot is disgruntled by the events of yesterday and his prior phone call, he is willing to make a deal with the survivors that if they are able figure out the truth of their situation then they will all be able to escape to the New World together, with failure resulting in everyone being executed. Protobot also adds he's added obstacles for the survivors to make it harder for them to find clues.

After Protobot's annoucement, the agent ponder a game plan, with Agent deciding everyone should split up to gather as many clues they can. Amy however, overwhelmed by her guilt in murdering Herbert and Gary as well as her grief in losing Sam, runs away from the group in tears. The agents then decide they need to process the grief of what happened yesterday, all collectively crying with one another. Afterwards, the agents prepare their investigations, going to the various corners of the island to gather clues, with Dot giving Paige's whistle to Agent, having a hunch that they'll need it. Once Agent is alone, they remind themself of how Gary and Herbert tried to save everyone who has died, and wanting to carry out their wishes, they head to The Plaza to start their investigations.

The first thing Agent notices in the updated Plaza is the newly built Puffle Hotel and Puffle Berry Mall in place of The Stage, the latter they saw the blue prints of earlier in the killing game. As they head inside, they come across Rookie who is also investigating the mall, as he wanted to look for Amy after she ran off. The two of them investigate the two new building before Wheel Bot stumbles upon the two of them. The two are surprised to see it but they quickly ask if Wheel Bot remember anything prior to the killing game, to which Wheel Bot responds that it's data of those events must of been removed. Wheel Bot then detects that another file has been added to their system, revealing itself to be a virus, reverting it and the other Test Bots back to their murderous programming. Wheel Bot then convinces it's virus that it should try and defeat the penguins in a turn based battle rather than killing them right away, to which the virus agrees as it takes over the robot. The two agents are reluctant to fight Wheel Bot but they realise they'll have to once Wheel Bot transforms.

The battle spans across The Plaza all the way to the newly built Skatepark to which manage to defeat Wheel Bot and the robot self destructs after Agent uses the Robotomy Gadget on it. Afterwards, Wheel Bot is restored to normal and talks with the agents for a little bit, asking for the agents to take it's USB for save keeping. Soon enough, Wheel Bot shuts down. Rookie contiunes to investigate the area while Agent moves somewhere else on the island.

Agent moves to The Town and investigates the Gift Shop, now named the Clothes Shop, and comes across Dot looking for good disguises. Agent warns Dot that the Test Bots are on the loose and the two decide to head to the Coffee Shop to help Agent regain some energy. After some investigation, the two stumble upon an infected Snow Bot and engage in another battle. The battle spans The Town and all the way to the Ski Hill. Once Snow Bot is defeated, Agent recovers it's USB for safe keeping. Snow Bot also warns Agent that the Higher Ups sees them as a massive threat before it shuts down.

Eventually this leads to a trial hosted by Monobert and Junko Enoshima, to which they reveal they've been wanting to start another killing game within the Penguinronpa Non-Canon Universe, erasing both casts of character's memories and using the Hope Fragment's powers to alter the universe so they can actually hurt each other.

Junko then winds up recieving the power from the Hope Fragments, back stabbing Monobert in the process and is only stopped by Gary and Miu Iruma's Fuck You 3000, an invention made to counteract any last minute plot twists. Junko is then hit and after the protagonists tell her that she lost, Junko then insists that she will be brought back once again in some way and she is fine with the despair of costantly dying and being brought back over and over. Afterwards, Junko explodes, revealing a portal back to the Danganronpa Universe.

Tofu then begins worrying about the future as the series is very close to ending and that they'll lose the character's they grown to love again, but Agent brings up that they are Tofu's own character and will always be by their side once the series ends.

Tofu then brings up that there will be a point where Agent's own story will be finished, comparing it to seeing their child go to kindergarten. Agent then brings up and begins worrying about how they'll be remembered once the series ends, likely being forgotten completely compared to the rest of the characters. Tofu tries to assure to Agent that they'll always remember them, to which Agent responds that they won't really mind if Tofu eventually forgets about them. Tofu then brings up the fact that everyone will eventually be forgotten by the universe itself and that no one really matters at the end of the day, but mentioning that the small impact they've made will still be there for the small amount of people who were impacted.

## Relationships with other Characters

### **Klutzy**

Agent is initially wary of Klutzy, due to him being Herbert's henchman. But, after Klutzy shows Agent a blueprint during Chapter 1, Agent begins to realize that Klutzy is on their side this time. Agent offers Klutzy to stay at their igloo at night, rather than going to Monobert's private quarters. When Klutzy is missing from Agent's igloo the next morning, Agent is shown to panic, already feeling concerned for their new friend.

During the first trial, it is revealed that Klutzy is teleported to and from Monobert's private quarters every day, so Klutzy staying at Agent's igloo is actually impossible. Despite this, Agent makes it clear to Klutzy that they want to do everything they can to keep him safe, and tells Klutzy he can stay with them whenever he wants to. Klutzy cries and happily jumps up on Agent's shoulder in response, implying he really does love and care about Agent. In Chapter 3, Agent teaches Klutzy how to hold things with his claws pinched shut (specifically, a beach ball that Klutzy had popped earlier). Gary marks that Agent is "somewhat of a parent themselves" when Klutzy rolls his ball over to Agent's foot to play.

Agent quickly takes to this parental-like role for Klutzy. They often refer to him as "buddy", and typically talk to Klutzy as if he is able to respond with his own words. In Chapter 4, after Gary bandages Klutzy up, Agent reveals to Dot why they feel so connected to Klutzy. The two of them both have things that they desperately want to tell the others, but for their own different reasons, they are unable to, which mentally strains the both of them more than they're able to properly express. Agent believes this connection with Klutzy is one of the few things keeping them sane throughout the killing game. When Agent finds Klutzy's corpse the next morning, that connection is gone, and Agent' completely shuts down, leaving them unable to even investigate.

Klutzy's suicide has had a huge impact on Agent throughout the remaining chapters. They denied that Klutzy took his own life during the fourth trial until Dot proved that it could only have been him. They tend to freeze at any reminder over his death and heavily blamed themself for not being there for their friend, until Dot assured them that he loved them with the popped beach ball. They also tried to cope with their grief by befriending a VR Klutzy but failed due to the fact that the VR Klutzy is a different from real Klutzy, thus failling into despair before Sam and Amy snapped them out of it. They've been recovering from those scars but they still heavily miss him.

### **Dot**

Agent and Dot begin the series on good terms, as they were co-workers in the EPF prior to the killing game (Dot was the one who recruited Agent into the EPF). However, after Paige kills Rockhopper in Chapter 2, Dot becomes extremely cautious of who she can trust, including Agent. She puts up a cold and angry demeanor and refuses to open up to Agent anytime they try to talk to her.

However, the more Agent tries to talk to her, the more she does slowly open up. This can be seen in Chapter 3 when Agent informs Dot that they were attacked in the Mine Tunnels; Dot's immediate reaction is genuine concern for her friend, but she quickly covers it up by calling the situation "peculiar". Agent's relationship with Dot is amended at the end of Chapter 3, where Agent reveals to her that they don't know what their true identity is. Agent's struggle to trust even themselves makes Dot realize the error of her ways, and she begins to trust Agent again.

In Chapter 4, Agent and Dot are closer than ever, and Agent feels more comfortable to talk to Dot about their nightmares and overall mental struggles. Agent also helps Dot to face the other penguins again after she shut them out for the past few days, leading to her leading the survivor penguins in Klutzy's investigation and cheering up Agent after they lose Klutzy.

In Chapter 5, Agent sleep in Dot's igloo for the whole chapter, with Dot actually waiting for Agent to arrive after Monobert's deactivation due to almost losing them that night. And two of them have a banter throughout the chapter. While not explicitly stated or confirmed, it is implied that Agent and Dot have romantic feelings towards each other, even being brought up in the 2021 Valentines Day Special and in their parallels to Makoto Naegi and Kyoko Kirigiri.

### **Rookie**

Agent and Rookie are close friends, as Agent had worked with Rookie on several occasions during missions prior to the events of Penguinronpa. Rookie is the first penguin Agent interacts with in the series, and Rookie is immediately happy to see them, likely because he looks up to Agent a lot. When paired with Rookie during the initial investigation, Agent says they "weren't exactly looking to work with Rookie", implying they are a bit aware of Rookie's tendency to screw up. However, Agent does commend Rookie for suggesting to search the Ski Hill after finding the forcefields with him. Agent cares about Rookie a lot, and even though Rookie may not be the smartest when it comes to solving cases, sometimes his mistakes end up leading Agent to the correct answer.

In Chapter 5, Agent mentions that they see Rookie as a younger brother, to which Rookie calls Agent their big sibler, finding the term sibling to boring and non affectionate. Rookie then keeps calling Agent their big sib for the rest of the chapter and Agent goes along with it.

### **Gary**

Agent views Gary as a father figure, and Gary views them as his child. Agent almost exclusively refers to Gary by his codename, "G", and has also called him a "really good dad". Gary is often very proud of Agent's accomplishments; he praises them for solving cases and is happy to have Agent take on the position of Director. Gary also noticed that Agent may have felt a little overwhelmed after becoming the Director, and reassured them that he'd always be there to help them every step of the way.

He apparently also confided his worries about Agent to Rory, as said by Rory himself during Chapter 3. At the beginning of Chapter 4, Gary finally tells Agent that he's been keeping a lot of his emotions to himself in order to maintain a strong self-image. He's aware that the EPF agents all look up to him, and he doesn't want them to lose hope by seeing Gary's true feelings. Agent comforts Gary, telling him that they'll all look out for each other rather than just Gary looking out for everyone.

Throughout Chapter 5, Agent shows a lot of concern Gary for constantly working on his invention with little break, but Gary insists that there is nothing to worry about. Eventually leading to Gary's death in Chapter 5, which heavily scars the remaining agents, including Agent, with Jet Pack Guy's rally being the only reason they all managed to work up the courage to investigate his death. Agent is also shocked to learn about what Gary had been inventing under their beaks, being the Shutterdown 2999.

### **Aunt Arctic**

Since she was the first victim, Agent and Aunt Arctic did not interact much during Penguinronpa. However, it is clear that Agent looked up to her, as they proudly exclaim that they won't let her down after taking her position as Director. Aunt Arctic was not confirmed to be the Director in Penguinronpa until the first trial, but her brief interaction with Agent in the Coffee Shop ("I can always count on you, can't I?") hinted that Agent was aware of who she really was. In Chapter 4, Gary tells Agent that Aunt Arctic felt like a mother to all of the EPF agents, furthering the connection Agent had with her prior to the events of the series.

### **Jet Pack Guy**

Agent and Jet Pack Guy are consistently on good terms with each other throughout the series so far. Like Agent, Jet Pack Guy is a top agent in both the PSA and EPF, and is incredibly loyal to both agencies. Because of Agent's high rank, Jet Pack Guy is often quick to trust Agent's intuition, and has no objections to them becoming the Director. Jet Pack Guy is also close enough to Agent to feel comfortable confiding to them about his concern for Rookie during Chapter 2. Agent is also understanding of Jet Pack Guy's outburst at Rookie after he forgot to get the first-aid kit for Klutzy, and urges him to get some rest. Agent also looks up to Jet Pack Guy, remarking that he is a better leader in one day then they've ever been.

### **Paige**

Agent and Paige were on good terms with each other until Chapter 2. The two didn't interact much, but when they did, they typically reminisced about Paige training Agent to work with the Elite Puffles. Like the other agents, Paige doesn't hesitate to nominate Agent to be the EPF's new Director, as she trusts their judgement and respects their accomplishments. When Paige reveals her despair in the second trial, Agent says "This isn't you! Why are you acting like this!?", implying Agent was close enough to Paige to know that she was a good person at heart. Even during Chapter 3, Agent still is reluctant to blame Paige for her actions, saying they're "willing to somewhat forgive her" for not being in her true state of mind. It's established in the 2023 Holiday special that Agent knew Paige before she became a mascot.

### **Shadow Guy & Gamma Gal**

While not in the EPF, Sam and Amy have still become good friends of Agent over the course of the series, most notably in Chapter 4 onwards. During Aunt Arctic's investigation, they helped Agent investigate the Ski Village along with Klutzy. Sam in particular wanted Agent to come look at the Ski Village because they trusted their intuition as the Ultimate Secret Agent. In Chapter 2, Agent is excited to find DVDs of Sam and Amy's plays in the Book Room, and in Chapter 3, Agent was the only penguin who actually enjoyed their play (They appreciated Sam and Amy helping to cheer Rookie up). In Chapter 4, Agent performs at the Stage with Sam and Amy, along with Dot. Their friendship strengthened after they realized how much agents and actors had in common.

Their relationship further develops through Chapter 5, thanks to the training missions they've done throughout the chapter. Agent sees them both as good friends who've helped them snap out of the grief of Klutzy's death and they even saved the two of them from being hit with the Test Bots lasers. Sam has also opened about how horrible he has felt throughout the killing game to them. Agent is also completely shocked to learn that the Superheroes were responsible for Herbert and Gary's death as well as realising that Sam is the traitor. Agent also makes sure to save both Sam and Amy's lives by telling everyone to not vote for either of them as the blackened, leading to Sam eventual sacrifice during the Mass Execution.

After Sam's death. Agent heavily sympathises with Amy's grief, much like the other agents. and perfectly understands Amy's pain despite wanting Amy to help out on their investigations.

### **Monobert/Protobot**

Agent hates Monobert more than anyone else, possibly only rivaled in that regard by Dot. Ever since he first appeared in the Snow Forts, Agent was quick to act stern and angry against Monobert to get to the bottom of his plans. Agent is aware that their friends have made mistakes that led to their deaths, but overall, Agent blames Monobert for all of the killings. Agent also blames Monobert for the scratch mark on Klutzy's shell, and detests how cruel Monobert is to his own henchman. Learning that Monobert was actually Protobot further angers Agent, especially after Protobot seemingly murders the Test Bots. Agent also believes that Protobot is nothing more than a lacky for the true mastermind of this killing game.

### **Herbert**

Agent and Herbert have a very strong rivalry prior to the killing game and Agent is quickly suspicious of Herbert when he is revealed after the fourth trial, before realising Herbert sent the Elite Puffles to help the surviving penguins. Neither of them properly interact before Herbert's death but Agent does interact with a VR Herbert in the Command Coach, showing concern for him when he is entangled in the Ski Lift. Agent upon discovering Herbert body is completely horrified, their inner dialogue saying they wouldn't wish this on him in a millions year. After the trial, they wish that they were able to thank him for helping the penguins out during his time alive. In the 4th Anniversary Q+A, Agent says their feelings towards him are complicated, not forgiving the fact he kept putting innocent penguins in danger, but still believing theres some good in him, especially compated to Protobot.

### **The Test Bots**

Agent, at first, is terrifed of The Test Bots, especially Jet Bot after being attacked by it. They generally try to stay away from Jet Bot since it's goal is to eliminate Agent. But eventually all three Test Bots try to eliminate almost every surviving penguin and puffle inside of the Command Coach. The Test Bots, after being seemingly defeated by Sam and Amy, then oversee the investigations of Herbert and Gary's deaths, taunting the agents over their grief of losing Gary as well as impeding their efforts by blowing up the PSA HQ with the agents trapped inside.

But before the 5th trial starts, Monobert, now revealing his true form as The Ultimate Protobot, seemingly kills the Test Bots in front of the surviving penguins, leaving everyone including Agent, shocked and appalled over what he did. After Shadow Guy's execution, Protobot attempts to kill everyone once again, only to be rescued by the Test Bots, who've returned to their original programming, done by Gary. And eventually after arguing with Protobot, shows a messages that Gary from what looks like the future had for the surviving penguins and restoring the island to what it was prior to the killing game

After the island had changed. Agent and Rookie encounter Wheel Bot in it's original programming, Agent thanks Wheel Bot for saving them. But it doesn't last long before Wheel and the rest of Test Bots are infected with a virus that both reverts them back to their murderous programming but gives them upgrades in order to eliminate the remaining penguins during their investigation. Agent is relcuant to hurt them but they are forced to fight both Wheel Bot and Snow Bot along side one of their co-workers.

### Other Characters

* **Rockhopper** - Agent and Rockhopper did not interact much, but they appear to be on good terms. More than anything, Agent was likely confused by Rockhopper's pirate lingo.
* **Cadence** - Cadence was often suspicious of the EPF agents, typically saying that investigating dead bodies seems to be more "up their alley". Despite this, Agent still cared about Cadence, and helped to prove her innocence in the second trial and is heavy upset over her death, believing she didn't deserve it, much like everyone else who has died.
* **Sensei** - Agent offered Sensei to stay in their igloo, implying they trust him enough to stay in their home. Agent also seemed to really enjoy meditating with him. Sensei being the quiet, wise old man didn't get to talk much to Agent, but they still respected him, and especially appreciated him helping Rookie.
* **Franky** - Like Cadence, Agent helped prove Franky's innocence during the second trial. Franky also appeared to be a bit more nervous throughout the killing game than Cadence was, so Agent did help calm him down a few times, most notably after he had played the Execution Simulator.
* **Rory** - Despite not being an agent himself, Rory helped Agent (and vice versa) a handful of times during their PSA and EPF missions, so Rory was always a familiar friendly face to Agent. He was always eager to lend a helping hand, and genuinely cared about Agent's well-being when he offered to have pizza with them.
* **Jeff the Ref** - After looking at his outfit in the Costume Trunk, Agent thinks that Jeff the Ref must be "really boring". Even during the non-canon (to the non-canon) Skeff wedding, Agent states that they don't even know who Jeff is. It's established in the 2023 Holiday Special that they knew (albeit likely doesn't remember) Jeff before he became a mascot and that they find him weird and is thankful when he leaves them alone.

## Trivia

* Agent is based on the player character from the PSA missions, as well as the missions in *Club Penguin: Elite Penguin Force.*
	+ Originally, Agent was just going to be a simple avatar-type character that used gender-neutral pronouns, as they do in the games. However, Tofu realized this was boring, and molded Agent into their own character. Agent's they/them pronouns stayed for the sake of non-binary rights.
* One of the most important lines from the PSA missions that helped to shape Agent's personality is in *Waddle Squad*, when Herbert says, *"Leave the snarky comments to me, Agent. They don't suit you."* to the player.
* Agent being light blue is based on a few things:
	+ Light blue is one of the main colors of Club Penguin, most notably seen as the Tour Guide's color during an early version of the Club Penguin homepage.
	+ Light blue was the color of Tofu's first Club Penguin account, FuzzyFoo97.
		- FuzzyFoo97 (along with Tofu's second penguin, Timmywhobird) cameoed in Penguinronpa during the CG for the second motive.
* In a story Q+A, Tofu mentioned that if Agent wasn't the protagonist, it would probably be Dot instead.
	+ This was a subtle hint to the protagonist switch in Chapter 4, where Dot becomes the protagonist.
* Agent is Tofu's favorite character to write for in Penguinronpa.
* Tofu started to prefer using they/them pronouns for themselves after writing exclusively in Agent's perspective for so long.
* Agent is canonically Panromantic Asexual according to various Instagram Q+As.
* Agent has recieved two sets of 2 Lies and 1 Truth released in both 2020 and 2022.
	+ Their 2020 one lists:
		- 1. Agent loses their protagonist status at some point.
		- 2. If Agent had memories of their idenity, someone's death would have affected them a lot more.
		- 3. Agent was the traitor, but does not remember it at all. The truth of the 2020 one is 1.
	+ Their 2022 one lists:
		- 1. Agent will lose their protagonist status again very soon, though not for a reason you'd expect.
		- 2. The others will learn Agent's true idenity. However, Agent will die before learning it themself.
		- 3. The only reason the killing game happened in the first place was because of Agent's actions None of them have been proven or disproven yet.
* Agent's introduction code translates to "HOW DID THEY GET HERE?"

* For the 4th Anniversary, Agent got their own solo Q+A. Some of the fun facts from the Q+A are:
	+ Their favorite stage play is Ruby and the Ruby.
	+ One of their favorite missions is Avalanche Rescue. As it's the first mission they felt like they were protecing people.
	+ Agent played a lot of minigames outside of their duty. They do generally prefer more relaxing minigames but they are a pretty skilled Minecart Surfer.
	+ Their favorite penguin outside of the main Penguinronpa cast is Dancing Penguin, as they do like helping them out.
	+ Their favorite song is I've Been Delayed.
	+ Agent likes Coffee.
