**Avatar Infernas** is one of the secret playable characters in *Vampire Survivors*. His starting weapon is Flames of Misspell.

## Unlocking

 *"It is tangible only in the inverted Inlaid Library. Good friends might then show the way."*

After clearing Eudaimonia Machine by defeating the The Directer and obtaining Greatest Jubilee, enter Inlaid Library with inverse mode toggled on. Travel very far right past the Gold Ring, until you see The Trickster in front of a piano. Kill The Trickster and interact with the piano, doing so will pause the game and open up an interactive pop-up menu with clickable piano keys. If you have Peachone and Ebony Wings (Vandalier and Cosmo Pavone's birds do not count), the birds will show you which keys to press. To avoid evolving Peachone and Ebony Wings into Vandalier you may wish to Banish one of the bird weapons after acquiring it to prevent it from leveling up to level 8.

The keys you'll need to press are D, A, A#, G, and C# (2nd white key, 6th white key, 5th black key, 5th white key, and 1st black key).

You will find yourself in a dark area with large amount of Undead Heads and Undead Eyes and nine coffins. Travel around the area and find Avatar in one of the coffins (his coffin location is randomized). After opening the coffin containing him, all other enemies will disappear and he will start attacking you. Defeat him to unlock him in the roster. Once Avatar is defeated, the White Hand will appear and end your run.

After unlocking, Avatar Infernas can be purchased for  666, scaling with other purchases.

Alternatively, Avatar can be unlocked in the Forbidden Scrolls of Morbane by casting the Spell "kalvasflam".

## Passive bonuses

Avatar gains +0.5% Curse, +0.5% Might, +2% MoveSpeed, and -0.25% Cooldown every level. There is no cap on these bonuses. He also starts with +60 Max Health, +50% Might, +50% Luck, +100% Magnet, +1 Revival, and +10 Reroll.

## Tips

* Since Avatar gains +2% MoveSpeed with each level, moving is more difficult at higher levels because of the absurdly high speed. This is mentioned in his description, by implying that he loses control with every level.
* Avatar Infernas is one of the few characters in the game whose cooldown scales infinitely (alongside Smith IV), not even Queen Sigma being able to lay claim to such a feat. This makes Avatar a fantastic user of powerful weapons normally hampered by long cooldowns, like Lightning Ring and Flash Arrow.
* Picking Clock Lancet will make Avatar Infernas virtually untouchable at a certain point, as the speed of the Lancet firing will essentially keep hordes perpetually frozen. This also makes Avatar a decent user of Out Of Bounds (XII).
* Picking Laurel will effectively make Avatar Infernas **completely invincible** starting at -87.5% Cooldown, as charges will regenerate faster than damage depletes them.
* Avatar's scaling movement speed makes it a fantastic user of Shadow Pinion and Valkyrie Turner. In addition, Valkyrie Turner benefits from its innate Heart of Fire.

## Trivia

* His silhouette is similar to The Directer.
* The name "Avatar" is most likely a reference to the Ultima series.
* The spell that can be used to unlock Avatar are the words of power spoken when casting the spell "Flamestrike" in Ultima Online.
* He is the only secret character with a theme.
* The game developer Luca G named himself Virgil Infernas in the official DIscord server.
* The solution to the piano puzzle to unlock Avatar Infernas is the same as the solution to the piano puzzle in Silent Hill.
* If the Avatar is a high enough level (and thus very fast, at about level 150) on Inlaid Library or Tiny Bridge, it can "break through" the level and enter the black space beyond the top and bottom border and then reach the "next" horizontal tileset. This can cause Reapers at the 30 minute mark unable to reach the player.
