Exester

**Exester** is the main character of the Glitch Chaos series. They are a genderless (albeit 70% female and 30% male) Exe-Glitch possessing the body of Sonic the Hedgehog, and the younger sibling of Nameless.

## History

### Past

Exester was a "magic child" born in Sakura Town. But one day, a group of 5 Exes attacked the town and took Exester away from their family when they were very young. They then were turned into an Exe and given to Error for experiments and testing, causing Exester to turn into some sort of code-virus and lose their memories. This is the reason why Exester gets emotional easily, and does not know that Nameless is their brother.

#### Version 1

They are first seen when Sonic reaches the end of Green Hill and he finds a garbled mess of pixels which quickly turn into a red eye, making Exester possess Sonic.

At the end of Green Hill during the night, Tails sees Exester in the distance and approaches them, thinking that they are Sonic, but then they open their eyes. It cuts to dialogue made by Exester, with them apologizing for having to kill Tails, saying that they have to do it.

Tails then appears in a reddish-colored temple. After Tails enters the Warp Ring there, he runs away quickly, and Exester is seen slowly walking in the direction he went. Then, you play as Tails trying to run away from Exester. If he escapes, he enters another Warp Ring.

#### Version 2

They are first seen when Sonic reaches the end of Green Hill and he finds Error, who proceeds to insert Exester's soul into Sonic, killing the latter in the process. Exester then falls down onto the ground, shaking.

After it cuts to static when Tails is wandering through the glitched Spring Yard, dialogue by Exester is seen saying "no... NO! NO!!! please.... *don't* die...."

After Tails enters the Warp Ring in his temple level, Exester is seen in a black abyss with illusions of themself popping up around around them, with Error watching. Exester seems to crack under the pressure as they smile, but it flashes white and they run away, starting a level where Exester is trying to escape both the illusions and Error.

### Sonic.exe The Glitch Chaos {CODE\_CORRUPTION\_}

Exester plays a major role in the game.

Their first level involves them trying to flee from "Chaser" in The Void. If they succeed by touching a black ring, they teleport to Lavender Forest, where they get attacked by Nameless. This starts another level where they try to defeat him while he runs away.

After this, there is a cutscene with Nameless, who is on the ground, weak. He asks if this is how he'll die, and is about to say that then Exester will kill everyone, but Exester interrupts him, shouting that they don't want to kill anyone, then asks if they can just talk. Nameless accepts, as there's nothing he can do.

It fades out, and Nameless asks if after Exester breaks out of Error's control they appear in the Lavender Forest. Exester confirms it, then apologizes for attacking him. He says it's okay, but admits it's hard to believe their words. He asks for Exester's name, and they tell him. Nameless awkwardly asks if Exester wants to come with him to town, to which they agree. Nameless then tells him his name.

It fades out again, and the two are now walking in Sakura Town. Nameless asks Exester if they turn people into Exes when they are controlled. Exester confirms it, but says they hope they're alright and then starts to worry about Error hurting them or making them suffer to make them say where Exester is. Nameless cuts them off from saying another one of their worries by shouting their name, and Exester promptly apologizes.

Nameless then tells Exester not to worry, and that the two will save them. Exester becomes ecstatic at this and thanks him. Nameless says "Yeah, yeah..." and tells them to just be quiet. Exester says okay, calling him "Nameless-kun". He becomes quiet and just says "Whatever..."

## Personality

Exester is kind, innocent, cheerful, silly, and wants to make everyone happy. However, they are shy and get emotional easily. They are against the idea of killing, and show remorse to their victims when they get turned into Exes. They are persistent on finishing tasks to the point where they won't sleep until it is done. Their hobbies include drawing and playing.

## Appearance

Exester, when possessing Sonic, looks like him, but but with red makeup under their eyes, which have changed into black sclerae with red pupils, eyelashes, and the inside of their mouth is black. When they are being controlled, their mouth and eyes look as if they are dripping black out of them. They have a sword.

### Old design

Exester, when possessing Sonic, looks like him, but with red makeup under their eyes, which have changed into black sclerae with red pupils, and the inside of their mouth is black. When they are distressed or being controlled, their mouth and/or eyes get messed up and look as if they are dripping black out of them.

## Abilities

Exester has the ability to teleport, create glitch portals, summon glitches, creating illusions, and turn others into Exes. They are strong enough to destroy the entire multiverse, but they are too kind to do so. They also have super speed, just like Sonic.

## Trivia

* Exester was originally male, but their gender was later changed to let players of Glitch Chaos see Exester as any gender they want.
* Anything Exester eats turns into code and heals them.
* Out of all the Sonic vocal theme songs, Exester's personal favourite is "Toot Toot Sonic Warrior" from Sonic CD, hence why it is the title theme of The Glitch Chaos.
