Background

Secretaries are a type of enemy that appear through random encounters in Purified Zones. The Secretaries also get more powerful in each Zone. They are stated by Mortis Ghost to be the reason as to why the Purified Zones are so desolate and empty, as they killed all of its inhabitants.

In order to reach a Purified Zone, the player must first purify the Guardian of the Zone then later return to it from The Nothingness.

Trivia

  • The Secretaries all appear to be in a fighting stance similar to that of a boxer, which means they may be related with the Boxxer in Hugo's "Panic in Ballville" comic.
  • While the Zone 3 Secretaries' game sprite makes their face look horribly mutilated, the concept arts show that they're actually wearing a luchador's mask.
  • The secretaries look like babies born with a syndrome called Arthrogryposis. This is more noticeable in the concept art.
  • All Secretary competences are related to math: A natural logarithm is a function similar to the parent function of a logarithm, except using a standard base of the irrational number e, a logical value (or truth value) is a set of true/false statements derived from a proposed question, a derivation describes the process of finding a function's derivative (which measures the volatility in the change of a function's graph with each given input), an oblique asymptote describes a slanting, infinitely stretching line denoting both the direction of a graphed line's rise or decay and its limit in height (with a line's length being described by a vertical limit, or a line parallel to the y-axis denoting the limit of the line's "stretch"), and division by zero describes a simple mathematical example of something giving an undefined value. Notably, a majority of these concepts also deal with the concept of infinity.
