This character or verse has mature themes and concepts, thus those of young age are ill-advised to look through these.
“ Alright. Welcome, Player. You have been assigned to a being called “The Batter”. The Batter is on a mission. Be sure that it’s accomplished. We will let you out at Zone 0. Good luck. For more information, find one called “The Judge”. „
~ An unknown entity speaking to The Puppeteer

Background

The Puppeteer is a co-protagonist of OFF, arguably serving as the central protagonist of the entire game. The Puppeteer's name and Sex is determinant. They are tasked with guiding a being known as the Batter to accomplish his sacred mission to purify the world of OFF. Some characters in the game, notably Zacharie, The Judge, and The Batter himself, are explicitly aware of the Puppeteer's existence and will address them directly. The question of whether or not other characters know about the Puppeteer is deliberately ambiguous, although statements by The Queen in particular appear to hint at them knowing of their presence.
