Pent

* Supermental
* Khonjin House

**Pent** is the overarching protagonist-turned-antagonist within Khonjin House and is a protagonist within the Khonjin House video game spin-off series Supermental. He's also the brief deuteragonist turned overarching antagonist in Smack's perspective within the Supermental sequences.

He was once the creator of the Khonjin House universe, wielding god-like abilities over their world until Episode 50.

## Physical Appearance

Pent bares a heavy resembles Khonjin, including their similar stance, yellowish-tan skin, large, orange nose, and red hair. However, unlike Khonjin, Pent has large eyes and eyebrows. She wears a red jacket with square cuffs, a white shirt (with the collar attached), a skimmer hat, gloves, and purple pants with a yellow stripe. Her left foot is made of metal and lacks footwear, but her right foot bears a white shoe with a single red stripe

In the sprite design, Pent's shirt lacks definition on the frills, and her pants are black instead of purple. Alongside this, she has the same purple shading on their hair as Khonjin

## History

Pent created the universe that Khonjin lives in, as well as all of its inhabitants before the events of Khonjin House #50. Pent and Smack are a duo of thieves who live together and regularly pull off heists.

## Personality

Pent has a very volatile personality, losing their temper easily. She is paranoid, vengeful, and sometimes incredibly immature. Pent is convinced that no one is to be trusted except for Smack.

## Relationships

### Smack

Pent and Smack were close friends, even living in the same household. They were a tight-knit pair of thieves highly revered in Nickville Square. Prior to the events of Khonjin House Episode #50, their relationship had turned for the worst.

### Shelby

Connor Lavery has confirmed that Pent and Shelby are one and the same. Shelby is the name she has chosen for herself. The Pent that appears in Khonjin House, however, is the husk of a human left after Smack accidentally erases Shelby’s sense of self. More about Shelby in this article.

### Khonjin

In Khonjin House, Pent unconsciously takes on Khonjin as her persona up until episode 50. While a majority of the time Khonjin is in control, there are brief periods where Pent is aware of who she is and takes over his body. In episode 50, Pent and Khonjin are split into their own entities with Pent returning to the real world and Khonjin taking on the role of the master of the Khonjin House universe.

## Appearances

### Khonjin House Calls #1

In Pent's first appearance, they receive a call from an unknown voice.

### Episode 5: Fabric

Pent makes a brief cameo in Episode 5 after Khonjin touches the scooty. It reuses the clip from Khonjin House Calls #1 as part of an anti-bullying PSA

### Episode 30: Finale

Pent's first official appearance in Khonjin House has them getting up from a pool of blood, yelling angrily at an unseen Smack.

### Episode 37: 10,000 Subscribers

Pent later appears in Episode 37, asking Gino's name and presumably searching for Smack. After being shot by Gino, they warp reality, warning that when they show up next time, they'll "drag this world into the depths".

### Episode 44: Blind Date

Pent pretends to be Khonjin while on a "blind date" with Gay Spaghetti Chef. After asking GSC about Shelby and coming up empty-handed, Pent breaks up with Gay Spaghetti and blows him to smithereens. We then see Pent revealing their true identity to the audience by lifting the blindfold

### Episode 49: Orphanage

In episode 49, various pictures of Pent appear at the end of the episode, along with a message warning Gino.

### Episode 50: Grand Finale

Pent's biggest and final appearance in Khonjin House was in Episode 50. Pent argues with Smack and attempts to prove to him that he doesn't belong. However, Pent soon realizes they no longer possess power over this world. Smack continues to argue with Pent and alludes to Shelby's death, at which point Pent denies her death and tries to attack Smack. The brawl is ended when Pent is frozen in mid-air by Khonjin. Khonjin tells Smack to "get 'im outta here"; what happens next is unknown.

### Episode 70: The End

In the final episode of Khonjin House, Pent reappears, giving viewers a glimpse into the next stage of Lavery's infamous series of riddles. The canonicity of this appearance is debatable due to fourth wall breaks and so on. The riddle section of this episode has since then been trimmed out using Youtube's editing tools, the video now ending after the fanart section.

### Supermental (Animated Series/Game)

Pent and Smack are set to appear in the upcoming animated series and video game set in the Supermental universe. Though Kickstarter funding for the first attempt at making the game was canceled in July of 2018, Connor reassured that it will "return, surely, and will succeed."

## Trivia

* Smack is the only person Pent trusts prior to their falling out.
* According to Connor, Pent was originally 15 years old. However, due to Connor being told his voice was too deep, Pent was aged up to 18.
* Pent's left foot is replaced with a metal prosthetic after they are forced to twist it off.[*citation needed*]

* Khonjin is confirmed to be the avatar that Pent uses in the events of Khonjin House until the Season 5 finale when Khonjin becomes a separate entity. Pent wasn’t consciously aware that they were Khonjin.
* On September 19th, 2018, Connor replaced all episodes referencing Pent and removed the originals in an event that fans called The Purge
* Pent uses he/him pronouns, because Pent is deeply ashamed and unwilling to accept the fact that they're transgender, going to great lengths to stay closeted.
	+ When Pent loses her sense of identity, she takes on he/him pronouns simply because others refer to her as such. At that point, Pent doesn't remember the desire to stay closeted, and it does not factor into her decision to use he/him pronouns.
