## Airy (alias, real name unknown)

* Uncracked/Current
* Cracked

## Appearances

### Debut

"Freefall" (voice only)racks at all."You Move, I Send" (first physical appearance)

**Airy** was the host and the main antagonist of ONE. Prior to "You Move, I Send", his physical appearance was never shown. He was the original host of ONE before he died.

## Appearance

Before ONE 17, Airy's true appearance was yet to be revealed, as he was never been shown onscreen, with only his voice being heard. It was implied that he was intangible as he was only air, going by his name. The only clue there was for Airy's true appearance was Abstracty turning into a lamp-like figure with a similar voice to Airy's.

As of ONE 17, Airy has now been shown to be a copper-coloured lantern (although slightly broken) with two knobs and a large deflector, while his entire body is mildly damaged and dulled. He has only one eye, as part of his globe is shattered, presumably from the incident from “The Plug Dream”. He is still able to light his burner by turning the knob on his midsection, which he occasionally also rests his arms on.

As of ONE 18, Airy's globe has been fixed and he is in full condition.

## Personality

Airy keeps a bored, deadpan attitude most of the time and seems to lack in empathy, as, for example, he only responds with a simple "oops, sorry” upon realizing Scenty had fallen to her death before recovering her. This is further proven when he doesn't acknowledge the contestants begging to be sent back home and teleports them back if they try to walk away. He also doesn’t bother to fact-check statements made by his contestants, leading Scenty to call him “unbelievably incompetent” in “Walls”.

Airy is shown to be a very apathetic and detached person, not having any malicious intentions in hosting his show. He explains in “You Move, I Send” that when he died, he spent an unspecified amount of time in The Waiting Room trying the radio until he came to the world he now resides in. After accidentally figuring out how to teleport people from other worlds into a planet he calls The Plane, the best explanation he could come up to soothe the scared people with was that they were in a game show, and they would compete for a prize. He accidentally kills all of them and spends the next decade trying to make sure the next season would be better. Airy is clearly quite invested in hosting, as it is his only form of entertainment other than his cassette tape, which he lost in “Screwball”, as the only times he smiles are when he is interacting with his contestants. He is also probably just very misunderstood, as he might not know that he is mentally damaging the people who have competed on his show.

## Coverage

### None (Confirmed in "You Move, I Send")

It is revealed that Airy "spent a really long time flipping through the radio" until he eventually made it to his universe. It is unknown if *A)* Airy either spent a long time flipping the radio to go to his universe or *B)* Spent a really long time finding the right habitable universe, however *A* could be more correct as we see Airy make it to his universe in one try; this could be marked as a death. This death could have been the car crash in the flashback in Self-Titled.

### "Self-Titled"

As Airy gives Liam the wooden cast, he heads back above the waterfall to collect some more reeds (possibly for "bedding" as confirmed in "You Move, I Send"), as he heads back to the plank bridge, he trips and falls due to the rain. He is then shattered by the sharp stone at the side of the waterfall, thus causing his second death.

## World

Airy lived in a small forest world, similar to Earth. He got there by using the radio from "The Waiting Room".

His room is a cave, he has a campfire and a shed. In the cave, he can make planets, and connect them to a computer. It is hinted in ONE 17 that he actually didn't mean to make an object show to torture contestants, he actually just thought that it would be fun.

As of ONE 18, Airy now resides in the Waiting Room.

## Abilities

Airy, as the host of ONE is able to do many things that his contestants can’t. In “You Move, I Send”, it is revealed that these abilities are not intrinsic to his person and he is only able to do these things within The Plane and possibly other planets he has by way of a computer on his desktop.

* **Object Manipulation:** Airy appears to be able to drop objects out of the sky into The Plane. They can range from a cassette player to an entire pool, as shown in “Screwball” and “La Salle D’attente” respectively, although it is unknown if he can drop things larger or smaller than this range. He also drops water along with the pool in “La Salle D’attente” and creates clouds in “Starting Over”, showing that he is not only able to manifest solids. However, it may be more difficult to manifest gases as Airy sounds proud of himself when showing the clouds to the contestants, and he only manages to make two. Also, in “Just Tripped” Airy creates an invisible barrier to bar Magazine from climbing Backpack, Soda Bottle, and Scenty’s shortened stake, although this might be a separate ability altogether.
	+ In "You Move, I Send", it is revealed that he does not actually conjure objects out of thin air, but gathers them from his surroundings, shrinks them, and drops them onto the Plane.
* **Body Control:** Airy can control limbs of objects without touching them. This is shown in “Just Tripped” where Airy straightens Backpack’s injured leg. Additionally, Airy may be able to adjust the sizes of his contestants as they are teleported into The Plane to a more near uniform size, doing this with the batch two and three contestants such as scaling up Texty, Whippy Creamy, and Contact Lens and scaling down Subway Seat and Bassy. Oddly, he does not do much for Atom, only scaling him up so he can just be seen. Airy may also be able to give the contestants limbs as seen with Stone.
* **Inter-World Teleportation:** Airy has teleported objects from different worlds to The Plane to compete in his competition using his computer, from a world where objects essentially live like humans, a world where humans dominate the world and objects have to hide their sentience, and from software installed on computers. The limits of this ability are unknown.

## Trivia

* In "Walls", Abstracty briefly transforms into an object loosely resembling a golden lantern with a monotone voice. This was foreshadowing as to Airy's appearance.
* Airy's note says “AIRY 4837895641361081574867455100523523993246453827549716928.3”. It was revealed in You Move, I Send that this leads to the small forest world where Airy houses The Plane.
* Since Airy uses code to do most things to The Plane (like recovering contestants), it's plausible he might be able to do anything as long as he knows how to.
* In ONE 8, Airy potentially tripped on something. A slipping sound and glass breaking could be heard, which could be the reason why Airy is shown to have a big crack in the glass portion of himself. Along with that, Abstracty's depiction, which was before ONE 8, showed Airy without a crack in his face, along with a pair of 2 eyes.
* The ONE Community was able to use Abstracty's depiction to form a theoretical design for Airy prior to ONE 17, the depiction of which ending up being very accurate to the canon design, besides the brighter colors of Abstracty's, and the community's depiction.
* In ONE 18, it is revealed that Airy's depiction of "The Waiting Room" is The Plane.
* After Airy went to The Waiting Room at the end of ONE 18, the crack in his globe became normal again. This is the same case as with how Airy first died and got sent to The Waiting Room, as his globe shattered when he died, however when he was sent to The Waiting Room, he had no crack.
