Then my head drew a scenery: oh no, my brother got impaled by some sort of electrical appliance! There's blood everywhere! What should I do, now? The truth is, I never had a brother. As HER, to talk was not my thing. I just wanted to entertain You. Maybe I should go back, or change again.

Background

White Face serves as the primary antagonist in the game IMSCARED. It is notorious for assuming different forms, including HER, the game's creator, and even the player.

HER is an alternate form of White Face and serves as the secondary antagonist in the game IMSCARED. She was first introduced in the IMSCARED Steam Workshop Edition, being a more aggressive entity then White Face.

Appearance

• General Description:

White Face is a floating white head with a distinctly misshapen top. It has a grotesque, ever-present toothy grin, though some of its teeth are missing. Its face lacks a clearly defined nose, with only a pair of visible nostrils.

• Facial Features:
• White Face's eyes are circular, black, and hollow, giving it an unsettling expression.
• A prominent scar runs from its left eye down its cheek, ending at the edge of its face.
• Despite the lack of a visible nose, the nostrils are clearly present.
• Its wide, unnerving smile remains unchanged, further adding to its eerie presence.

• Hair and Neck:
• White Face is completely bald, with no visible hair.
• It has a neck, though it lacks any other discernible body parts, appearing as a detached, floating head.

• General Description
  • As HER, White Face adopts a tall and slender humanoid form with long, straight dark gray hair.
  • Unlike White Face's typical floating head form, HER possesses a complete human-like body.
  • Her figure is notably thin and stick-like, adding to her eerie appearance.

• Facial Features
  • HER has no nose, featuring only a pair of hollow black eyes.
  • A prominent scar runs from her left eye down her cheek to the edge of her face.
  • While HER is often depicted without a mouth, this feature changes in certain scenes.
  • In her initial appearances, such as during Not To See and her time in the parlor, HER is portrayed without a mouth.
  • Her portrait, the labyrinth, and the gravesite show her with a sinister smile, occasionally playfully sticking her tongue out, resembling White Face's grin.

• Distorted Form
  • When confronted with a gun at the gravesite, HER's appearance becomes increasingly distorted.
  • She gains a wide, unnerving smile, with black liquid oozing from her mouth.
  • Ominous floating faces accompany her as she aggressively charges at the protagonist.
  • With each gunshot, HER’s form deteriorates, accumulating bullet wounds on her chest and legs, resulting in a progressively bloodied state.
  • Despite the damage, she maintains her grin until her death, where she finally frowns, blood continuing to ooze from her mouth.

• Additional Details
  • In the 2016 version of the labyrinth, a floating HER head can be found from the “quiet I said” screen, resembling her disembodied form.

Personality

• Playful and Mischievous: At first, White Face is playful and enjoys messing with the player. It crashes the game and gives false endings, acting like a trickster. While it seems lighthearted, there's always an unsettling feeling, and its actions can be unpredictable and eerie. Though White Face seems to ultimately mean no harm as it cannot affect the Player in the real world.

• Unreliable Narrator: White Face acts as an unreliable narrator, feeding the player misleading information and creating confusion. It breaks the fourth wall often, showing that it knows the game's mechanics, which adds to the sense that things are not what they seem. In one of the rooms there is text that notes "One of them is lying".

• Shifting Tone: As the game moves on, White Face's tone changes. After the first fake ending and the BURY HER section, it becomes more serious. It starts to reveal a dark memory of watching a violent event involving a family member. By this point, it knows the game is almost over and starts pleading with the player to make the right choice.

• Desperation and Fear: White Face becomes desperate as the game nears its end, trying to convince the player to let it stay. It warns that the choice is irreversible. Its fear of being deleted makes it act more anxious and vulnerable, showing a side that was hidden before.

• Multiple Endings and Reactions: The player's choice determines White Face's fate. If the player decides to let it stay, White Face shows genuine appreciation, no longer acting like the frightening entity it once was. But if the player tries to delete it, White Face reacts violently, accusing the player of not listening and trying to fight back by deleting the player instead.

• Final Message and Sorrow: If the player finds the "heart.txt" file, White Face sends a final message that's full of sorrow and regret. Its tone is no longer angry or desperate, but rather full of sadness, reflecting its fear of being erased and its final plea for the player to reconsider.

• Serious and Stern: Unlike White Face, HER is noticeably more serious, often displaying a strict and commanding presence. This is evident when she asks the player to "please be quiet" through a "How to Play" poster in her parlor. Disobeying her results in a silent jumpscare and the abrupt end of the game, emphasizing her intolerance for disobedience.

• Subtle and Eerie Appearances: HER has a habit of making brief, unsettling appearances. Whether it’s her arm protruding from a wall, her fleeting presence in the parlor, or her face briefly emerging in the Labyrinth, HER’s scares are more subdued and psychological compared to White Face’s antics.

• Playful Undertones: Despite her serious nature, HER’s tone can occasionally be playful. During the Cellar section, she emits a ghostly, howling laugh, and when she is killed, she cries out in a high, exaggerated voice. These moments show a glimpse of amusement beneath her stern facade.

• Sound Design and Presence: HER’s presence is often accompanied by unnerving sounds. The shuddering, female-like breathing heard throughout her sections adds to her unsettling nature. While HER may not always be visible, her lingering presence is felt through the game's eerie audio cues.

Relationships

The Player

White Face merely wants to play a game of tag with The Player, messing with their computer along the way. They seem to like The Player as it decides to not let them escape the game. White Face brings the player to their room, noting how it's dark and cold in there but they can stare at them. Telling them that they cannot escape from the game and to just stay with them as they will always be there. White Face reveals in one of its text files that they wanted to merely entertain the Player. If the Player chooses to give White Face the flower it will tell the player how kind they are to it and tell them that they want to play forever and that they love them. The only time White Face becomes directly villainous towards the player is when they choose to open the door over giving White Face the flower, having both of them ruin the game and White Face fearing its death.

HER is a lot more aggressive then White Face, peaking around corners, warning The Player to be quiet in the parlor, and crashing their game if they run in the parlor. They immediately attack the player when they're near them. Directly chases after the player and crashes their game.

HER nullifies The Player from being able to do actions such as use their rope. White Face can create locks on the game folder that keeps the green gate locked. Broke the shift key, negating The Player's ability to run away), Emersion (Can cause all the HERs to emerge out of the painting), Possible Possession (When killing HER, if the Player moves they will see White Face there, implying that it was in their in-game player avatar), Virus Manipulation (Interacting with White Face causes Windows to detect a problem on the computer, causing a forced shut down to prevent damage to the computer.

White Face is responsible for any of the changes within the game. HER crashes the game when interacting with the player. Noted that White Face can completely destroy files. Made it so that when The Player got their gun it would have no bullets requiring them to alter the files to give themselves bullets.

White Face's folder is completely empty, hiding its heart.txt file from The Player until it becomes too scared), Technology Manipulation (Can upload videos onto youtube that give misleading and false routes), Text Manipulation (Can make a text box appear where they ask if the player knows their name.

Notable Techniques

File Creation

White Face possesses the ability to create and alter files, even as a byte entity within the game.

In-game Text File Revelation

A hidden text file, written by Ivan Zanotti, details the protagonist’s abilities and limitations, confirming that White Face cannot stop the protagonist from modifying the game’s files. While White Face can create entire worlds, it lacks the capability to prevent the protagonist from altering the game’s core elements. The developer humorously notes his inability to make White Face more capable of countering these file changes.

---

Other

Standard Tactics: White Face will attempt to get the person to play its game, trying to make the game incompletable so that the player will never stop playing.

Weaknesses: White Face's arrival will be predicted by a sound, giving away its location. Once White Face becomes too scared, his heart will appear, allowing one to mess with is files to delete him for good.

Trivia

• White Face appears in the game Spooky's Jumpscare Mansion, as the first "unknown specimen" in the game's endless mode.
• Considering the evidence found throughout the game, everyone in the game could be White Face.
• In the Grave level, after killing HER, if the player moves, they can see that the protagonist had White Face's appearance; the creator stated that it might be that "HER" was a sort of mask for White Face, and White Face thought it was taking too much of the spotlight so it decided to get rid of it in a sort of "final battle" scene, trying to appease the player.
• If you type in "loneliness" at the screen where the game asks you what its name is, a special message appears that reads "No, you don't want to", and the menu will disappear.
• White Face's design may be inspired by the Uboa Event from Yume Nikki, as White Face has a similar looking design to Uboa.

Codex Statistics Questions

Q: Shouldn't White Face be universal for creating worlds?

A: Creation does not apply to tier under our system. Along with that, the worlds it creates are all within the digital space. White Face is directly noted as a byte entity observing us and studying our every move and fear. The Restorer even describes IMSCARED as "a sentient program that takes possession of your device".

Q: Shouldn't it be a higher tier under Pseudo Tiering System?

A: Pseudo Tiering System are for verses where the reality in question is treated as essentially an equivalent to reality. In Imscared however, the entire events is treated as the same of a Malware infecting the computer. It's directly noted that the reality of Imscared will never collide with the other one. White Face is directly noted as a byte entity observing us and studying our every move and fear. Thus Pseudo Tiering System would not work here as the series itself acknowledges this as just a powerful virus.
