## Skills

### The Ancient One

* AO is a summon; it can pick up EXP and HoloCoins.
* Conversion chance is rolled independently for each enemy in the area.
	+ Deals 125% (11 – 15) damage to enemies that failed to convert.
	+ When an enemy is converted, it will count as defeated. EXP and other pickups will drop as normal.
* Touching a Harmless Takodachi heals Ina 1 hp and causes it to pop, dealing 1% AoE damage to enemies and applying a minor knockback (speed: 1, duration: 1).
* Harmless Takodachi can stack by colliding with each other, growing larger in the process.
	+ Each Harmless Takodachi in a stack increases healing by 1 and explosion damage by 1% and the explosion area by an additional 10%.
* Harmless Takodachis remain on the field and follow all the behaviors of the target that they were converted from.
* Harmless Takodachis are invincible, cannot attack and follow Ina at 55% SPD.
* Harmless Takodachi do not expire, even if they were previously part of a timed event spawn.
* The Ancient One's conversion area is affected by the area increase of Knightly Milk.

### The Void

Slows targets that are close to Ina.

* Harmless Takodachis are affected by the slow debuff.

### The Forbidden Wah

Increases damage for multi-hit attacks.

* When the effect triggers, a crowbar sprite will appear on the affected target.

## Other effects

## Trivia

* The Ancient One refers to an eldritch book found by Ina in her lore, fitting her HP Lovecraft style.
	+ Ina nicknamed the tome "AO-chan."
	+ AO takes its print book form in HoloCure.
		- Ina's lore later converted AO to a tablet by uploading its contents to the internet (for her convenience).
* The Harmless Takodachis generated by Ina's abilities are octopus-like void creatures native to her lore.
	+ Ina's fans are also known as Takodachi.
	+ The name "Takodachi" is a Japanese portmanteau of "Tako," or octopus, and "Tomodachi," or friend.
* The Forbidden Wah, also known as "The 4th Wah," refers to a running joke among Ina's fandom where saying Ina's signature "Wah" greeting four times in a row is said to have unspeakably cursed consequences (specifically, due to the acronymic possibilities).
	+ "The 4th Wah" gained further notoriety during Ina's extended hiatus in late 2022 with the *#4thWah* Twitter hashtag, which became the main hashtag for risque NSFW art of Ina.
* In earlier versions, picking up a Harmless Takodachi triggered an enemy hit against the player.
	+ Older iterations of Piki Piki Piman (+special gauge on damaged) and Plushie (+invulnerability on damaged) could be triggered by Harmless Takodachi frequently, allowing Ina to survive later waves with ease. In fact, dying could become more difficult than surviving, causing game end rewards to be blocked. This interaction, known as "Ina Lock", was acknowledged by the developer as a bug and was fixed in version 0.4.
	+ After being updated, Harmless Takodachi is now a healing effect.
* Prior to update 0.5, Ina had the Cult ability instead of The Forbidden Wah.
	+ Cult improved Ina's attack against nearby enemies.
	+ Cult was a reference to Ina's fanbase, collectively called the Tentacult.
