**The Entity** is the overarching antagonist of the *Mr. Hopp's Playhouse* series. This mysterious creature serves as the ruler of the Underworld and the master of the Three Curses, Isabelle and the Shadow Creatures.

## Appearance

The Entity is a large shadowy deity possessing dark purple light & yellow eyes like those of his subordinates (in their monster forms at least). His head resembles that of a Satan-like being.

Like virtually all the monsters in-game, the Entity possesses the ability to shapeshift, changing his form into all sorts of monstrous creatures.

In the third game he has a more physical appearance and his face resembles more that of a goat.

## Personality

The Entity is shown to be an evil deity, having will to corrupt and cause enough dismay to the world as possible; this was exactly why he was banished from the Above in the first place.

The Entity can also be very manipulative, convincing Isabelle to join him by promising her "luxuries and comforts beyond her imagination". He was also briefly able to manipulate Ruby into turning against her grandma briefly.

He doesn't seem to have mercy with his minions, and doesn't tolerate their failure.

The Entity is also shown to be very persistent and relentless in his pursuit for Esther, manipulating her dreams in order to break her down and "recruit" her alongside Isabelle. His persistence eventually leads to him becoming more agitated and obsessed with killing Esther, going as far as to kidnap her friends with the intent on killing them and, in the true ending, the Entity resorts to transforming into the Amalgamation in order to kill Esther off for good. His persistence however can also make him act reckless and underestimate his targets.

The Entity is also extremely vengeful, deciding to target and have vengeance against Esther's family after she defeated and sealed him away.

The Entity is also sadistic and somewhat childish, seemingly seeing the suffering he causes as nothing more than a game. The fact he had his three strongest subordinates possess toys seems to further prove his childish nature.

## History

### Background

Some time ago, The Entity used to be the Guardian of Hope before being banished from the Above due to wrongdoing and corruption, and sent into the Underworld.

Following this, the Entity started harvesting the souls of the living to corrupt and feast upon them and stole The Six medallions that kept balance between the realms and create Mr. Hopp, Miss Bo and Mr. Stripes, who would help him in harvest.

In ancient times, During one of his harvests he stumbled across a girl named Isabelle, who was "a young, troubled spirit with hatred in her heart". The Entity offered her to join him in exchange of comforts and luxuries beyond her imagination.
Isabelle agreed, and so the Entity gave her the Six, which she presumably used to commit evil deeds (among which the murder of her own mother). This lead to her execution for witchcraft via being burn alive, but the Entity "saved" her by turning her into a being like himself and also had his servants possess her toys.

The Entity continued his reign of terror, preying upon the young using terror and having many children own Mr. Hopp, until in the 1940's he started tormenting with nightmares a pregnant woman named Faith. He later became obsessed with the latter's daughter (Esther) due to how pure her soul was.

### *Mr. Hopp's Playhouse 2*

In 1952, The Entity's next target would be girl known as Esther whom he would have his eyes on even before her birth. The Entity and his subordinates sought to claim or recruit Esther in some way and the Three Curses along with Isabelle were sent to the Blacklands Manor Ophanage, Esther’s place of residence at the time. Unwilling to let Esther escape as what had happened before with one other soul, the Entity grew reckless in his pursuit of her.

The Entity serves as the main antagonist of *Mr. Hopp's Playhouse 2*. His main focus was Esther, as he repeatedly haunted her within in her dreams, even outside of them. In the "Bad Ending" of the game, the Entity will chase Esther and ends up seemingly claiming her.

In the True Ending, however, Esther was able to obtain the Six and arrives in Underworld. She used the medallion's power to defeat the Three Curses and Isabelle. She triumphed over the Entity and leaves him and his subordinates trapped in their own domain. However, as time passed, Esther grew older and weaker in body until she was no longer able to keep the Entity at bay.

### Between *Mr. Hopp's Playhouse 2* and *Mr. Hopp's Playhouse 1*

Once Esther becomes too old to stop him on September 12, 2018, the Entity returns, taking back the Six and controlling Esther (presumably becoming the reason of her decaying mental health), and on September 17 forcing her to give Mr. Hopp to her granddaughter Ruby to move his revenge onto Esther's family, leading to the events of the original *Mr. Hopp's Playhouse*.

After Esther died on September 19, the Entity trapped Esther's soul into the Underworld, even going as a far as building a replica of her house as a strong reminder that she couldn't ever be freed.

### *Mr. Hopp's Playhouse 3*

On October 18, 2019, Six months after the events of the first game, the Entity sends Mr. Hopp to take Ruby and bring her into the Underworld.

After Ruby manages to free Esther, the Entity orders Isabelle to stop the two of them.

Once Esther and Ruby get past the Jester, the Entity captures Ruby and brings her to himself. The Entity proceeds to try and convince Ruby that Esther's the true villain and that he's merely a victim; while Ruby at first doesn't believe him, he does end up convincing her when he asks her why Esther gave Ruby Mr. Hopp if she cared so much about her.

After the Three Curses all fail to get rid of Esther, the Entity decides to take the matter into his own hands. Once Esther reaches him, the Entity has a pair of shadow vines hold her still as he reveals that Ruby has decided to become his subordinate, and that he's given her the last of the Six, before charging up his mouth orbs to kill Esther once and for all.

The Entity's ultimate fate depends on the ending obtained:

#### Bad Ending

If all the gems haven't been collected throughout the game, the Entity kills Esther as Ruby is teleported back home by her medallion.

#### Good Ending

If all the gems have been collected throughout the game, Ruby turns against the Entity at the last second and tosses her medallion at Esther. For her betrayal, the Entity attacks her, wounding and knocking her out.

As he prepares to kill Esther once and for all, the latter uses the power of the Six to ascend, starting a fierce battle against the Entity and finally destroyed him for good.

## Powers and Abilities

* **Teleportation** - The Entity can appear and disappear at will.
* **Dreams Manipulation** - The Entity can enter and manipulate people's dreams.
* **Future Knowledge** - The Entity appears to have some knowledge regarding future events, at least judging by the fact that in the second game Esther finds herself in a replica of Ruby's house.
* **Umbrakinesis** - The Entity can summon obstacles and creatures seemingly from shadows.
* **Near Immortality** - The Entity has presumably been around for centuries or even melenia and it seems impossible to kill him through conventional means, but the medallions were able to kill him........
* **Memory Manipulation** - The Entity appears to be able to manipulate people's memories; this seems proven when he attacks Esther in the "Bad Ending" and the latter seemingly forgets about all the horrible things she just went through.
* **Corruption** - The Entity appears to be able to turn others into beings like himself, which is best shown with Isabelle.
* **Room Manipulation** - The Entity can manipulate the rooms of the place where he is in. This is especially shown in the third game, where he creates a replica of Esther's orphanage in the Underworld.

* **Spiritual Watching -** The Entity can watch souls and see through their perspective, as showcased in Mr. Hopp's Playhouse 3.
* **Vision manipulation** - Shown by how the Entity showed Esther visions.
* **Hearing manipulation** - Shown by how the Entity managed to make Esther hear whispers from Molly and Isaac to help them but no one else could hear it.

## Trivia

* The Entity can easily be considered the series' equivalent to the Devil due to both sharing the trait of formerly being good before getting banished into a hellish dimension they now rule and becoming the embodiment of evil.
* The Entity is suspected to be the reason Isabelle was executed by burning, due to him supposedly manipulating her into committing corrupted deeds, such as killing her mother.
* The Entity's gender is ambiguous. The note in the second game refers to the Entity as an "it", but the Totems in the third game refer to the Entity as a "he" (even calling him "the Dark Lord").
