- Hex

Hex, is a really chill Basketball playing AI created by YingYang48. He is a robot with a monitor for a face that can replicate various images. He appears in his own mod, VS. Hex, as a main opponent.

Appearance
Hex's head resembles a television or a monitor and has two mangled antennas on top of it, a black screen and a smiling cyan face displayed on a screen. Hex has grey metal in place of skin, complete with black bolts that secure his limbs together and square, flat featureless feet.

He wears a white sleeveless basketball shirt with an orange number 16 symbol imprinted onto it, orange shorts with white stripes, and he goes around barefoot. He holds an orange mic upwards in his left hand, while his right hand rests on his hip.

During the final song of Week X: Glitcher, he slouches with his hands on the side of his head. His face changes from dizzy and scared to a single red eyeball outline, The eye of IRIS Co. Ltd. The reason for this is because Iris was unable to fully take control of Hex's motherboard, and Hex is trying to fight it off. Thankfully, he succeeded, as evident by the existence of Encore, the final song which is unlocked when the player completes Glitcher. As seen in Hex's backstory lore dump on Twitter it was also indirectly confirmed that he managed to survive the events of Glitcher and is now best friends with Whitty and Carol.

During The final song of Weekend X: Detected, IRIS has fully taken control of Hex. The IRIS' Eye has its pupil shrunk and looks like it is shocked. After Detected, IRIS loses their control over Hex. Hastags Like #SaveHex And #IRISIsOverParty Is trending. But they will have to deal with Slasher Soon.

Biography
Hex was created when a lonely Rich Guy commissioned a high-robotics company to build a companion for him. The company researched new features for the prototype bot, and eventually named the robot Hex. Unfortunately, the CEO of the company got greedy when he realized the new features could make them tons of money if they mass produced such solutions to mainstream robotics. The CEO would later terminate the commission without Rich Guy's knowledge.

Hex would later be deemed obsolete, have his power drained from him, and be put in a storage unit. Luckily for him, he was placed under a window, making his solar panels pick up energy. When he woke up, he escaped his storage unit and hid somewhere nearby. Meanwhile, Rich Guy would find out the commission had been terminated, leaving him disappointed. However, while heading home, he would find Hex in a bad condition. Once he realized that Hex was the robot he commissioned, he would take him home and they would be close pals. While living together Rich Guy and Hex would do activities together such as basketball and karaoke.

Eventually, as years went by, Rich Guy passed away, leaving Hex with a ton of money but with no friends. This would leave Hex to engage in multiple activities to find people who would want to be friends with him. He would later join a basketball team since it was one of his favorite things to do with Rich Guy before he died. Despite all of this, Hex didn't have anyone he could truly consider a buddy. For example, another activity he would do with Rich Guy was karaoke. Since he died, Hex stopped singing. That is, until he met Boyfriend at the park. Thanks to the events of the Hex mod, Hex became friends with Whitty and Carol.

Gameplay Mechanics: Detected
Detected has IRIS release Hex's full power, unlike in Glitcher. IRIS' Power can control the highways in crazy ways similar to Expunged's Control in Cheating and Unfairness. Here is a list on what happens to the hghways in Detected. * Hex's highway is transparent, which helps the player identify their own.
 * Turn 1: Each lane moves up and down in a wave pattern.
 * Turn 2: Every 4 beats, the notes spin and fly to the top or bottom and come out the other side. This catches many players off guard.
 * Turns 3-6: The notes move in a wave pattern to the right, coming back to the left when they hit the right edge of the screen.*
 * Turn 7: The left/up and down/right lanes alternate jumping over each other. Every 4 beats, the direction reverses.†
 * Turn 8: The left/down notes and up/right lanes rotate independently. Every 4 beats, the direction of rotation reverses.†
 * Turn 9: The two highways merge. The highway moves down and then teleports back up so that notes only move once per beat.†
 * Turn 10: Same thing, but with upscroll.†
 * Turn 11: Same thing, but arrows move to the right.†
 * Turn 12: The two highways separate but slowly merge again.†
 * Turn 13: The notes fade out as they approach the strikeline. The idle singer's highway fades out.
 * Turn 14: A combination of turns 2 and 13. The idle singer's highway fades out.
 * Turns 15-18: The highways separate. A repeat of turns 3-6.*
 * Turn 19: Turn 7, but every 4 beats, in addition to reversing the jump direction, the game switches from upscroll to downscroll and vice versa.†
 * Turn 20: The highways alternate between merging and separating while the left/down and up/right pairs swap places every few beats.*
 * Turn 21: Turn 9 but the strikeline also leans to the left and right, swapping every beat.*
 * Turn 22: Turn 21 but with upscroll.*
 * Turn 23: Repeat of turn 21.*
 * Turn 24: Turn 21 but the notes move to the left.*
 * Turns 25-27: The game switches between upscroll and downscroll. The highway flips into the new direction slowly, which is intended to disorient the player. The highways start to merge at the end of the turn.*
 * Turns 28-32: Turns 3-6, but upscroll on Hex's turns and downscroll on Boyfriend's turns.*
 * Turn 33: The arrows move to the center and move in a circular, carousel-like motion before falling off the screen. (there are no notes in the player's highway)

†The idle singer's highway drops out of the screen.

 * Yes, it was very fun! Good night-


 * BZZZZZZZZZZT-


 * H-Huh? Hex?


 * ...Uh oh.


 * I think we might have a problem...

 * Something might have passed my defenses, which means...


 * There might be a virus inside me.


 * Huh? Wait, isn't that like, dangerous to machines?


 * VERY dangerous.... oh no.


 * I think it wants to take control over the system.


 * Shoot... can't you do something to prevent that?


 * I... don't think i can... but.


 * Wait. Maybe you can.


 * Huh?


 * Grab my mic and fight that thing off!


 * If you order the system to input enough mic patterns it might crash.

 * *gasp* BF! Over here!


 * Oh! Hi babe, sorry for being late, traffic's being wacky today.


 * Nevermind all that, i'm just glad you're here now!


 * By the way, have you seen what the show's gonna be about?


 * Yeah, pretty bold of your dad to invite people he screwed over.


 * Then again, he promised money for the prizes so folks might turn a blind eye.


 * Yea about that.


 * Earlier someone asked me if you could help them with a stage performance today.


 * Huh? Who?


 * Y'know, the tall robot guy that played sports, what was his name again?


 * Gex...? Apex......?


 * Hex?


 * Yea! That guy! Honestly, I'm up for you doing it.


 * That would be your TV debut! The whole nation would see my boyfriend's fresh skills!


 * The whole nation...? I dunno, are folks all around the country ready for my flow n' stuff?


 * You're overthinking this, who cares if some boomers won't like you.


 * Besides, these people would be way more shocked by the living robot anyway.


 * Hmm, you're right! I'm gonna show you and tons of people what i'm made of!


 * Now, where is Hex?


 * Uhhh, he should be in his waiting room probably. I think it's on the 16th floor.


 * I'll head out then.


 * Oh yeah, hold up, what about... y'know.


 * Dad? Ah, don't worry.


 * I'll convince him. It should go smoothly.


 * Ok, good. Well, see ya later babe!


 * See ya!


 * Hmm. Maybe I should harmonize at this part of the song with him...


 * That is if he agrees to perform with me.


 * Hello?


 * Oh! Hex, you're here!


 * *gasp* Boyfriend! You're here, so that means... you wanna perform with me?


 * Yea! Nothing wrong with wanting to help a buddy in need. Can't wait actually!


 * But how did the whole thing even happen? How were you invited?


 * Well, seems like Mr. Dearest somehow had seen our battle.


 * He took notice of my music and he wanted for me to perform here!


 * Not surprised at all he knows about everything involving me and GF.


 * Kinda creepy actually. Either way, it's cool that you're here now!


 * So, what's the song we're gonna do?


 * Oh, right! Here's the pattern sheet.


 * We can edit it if there's anything you don't like.


 * Hmm... Okay.... Alright..


 * Looks good to me! I'm sure it will sound great with the music added.


 * Nice! That makes me a very happy bot.


 * Y'know, i'm wondering though. What about you and your b-ball carrer?


 * It's not going anywhere. I hold basketball dearly to my processor.


 * I just don't wanna be stuck in one place.


 * I wanna try and experience while I have the occasion!


 * That's what my best friend said to me once...


 * Y'know, for a robot, you're very much a human. And a good person too!


 * There you are! The show's starting soon, you better get ready.


 * We'll be there soon, thanks for the info babe!


 * Well? Are you ready?


 * I'm always ready.


 * -|Detected=

Detected Dialogue

 * You better speak up or i'll destroy that robot right here, right now!




 * Fine, So be it.


 * Using unfair methods as always, huh Dearest.


 * It... talked? The virus talked?


 * What virus? This ain't a virus.


 * It's those bugs from IRIS trying again to mess with me, my family and my business!


 * Wait... hold up, what's IRIS?


 * IRIS Co. Ltd... A media conglomerate straight from the depths of the Underworld.


 * I were in partnership with them once but they turned out wack so I left


 * Now they're bitter and want me down, but this ain't happening!


 * But... why are they usin' Hex to do this crap?!


 * Seems like they were trying to spy on my daughter while you were in the park...


 * People from hell can't enter this world, they can contract people from here though.


 * They've probably hired a hacker and tried using the closest machine near her at the time.


 * So they used the robot, last time he fought them off nicely but this time he shutdown completely!


 * Are we done with this boring exposition? We're running out of airtime Dearest.


 * ...What the hell do you want?


 * A battle, duh. We're gonna broadcast it all over hell using this bot.


 * ...Nah.


 * Huh?


 * I'll actually put my trust in mortal pipsqueak over here to take you down.


 * ''HUH?!?!?


 * You want to... use a mortal. To represent you?


 * You've really gone down hill.

" Nah, i just think the thought of a mortal winning the battle would destroy your rep


 * You would never recover from that and that's fine by me.




 * Fine. If you wanna play these games go ahead.


 * We're not lowering the difficulty though, is that clear?


 * ...What if I lose?


 * Oh, it's simple really. The robot will explode, killing everyone in this room.


 * If you're talking about destroying image then we gotta answer with the same.


 * The Underworld is all about prestige and we're not gonna lose to an amateur mortal.


 * ...Amateur?


 * Pff, you empty suits ain't seen nothing. You're going down!


 * Plus, if I win, you're gonna stop bothering GF and Hex! Got it?


 * Sure, the cover's been blown anyway.


 * We've already collected enough data, this is just a cherry on the top.


 * Well? Are you ready, mortal?




 * I'm always ready.


 * -|Post-Detected=

Post-Detected Dialogue

 * We... lost? To that blue haired thing!?


 * Told ya. Maybe you were the one who's gone down hill.


 * Huh, well that's brutal. Your stocks crashed hard. Underworld's social media wants you gone...


 * Ah yes, music to my ears honestly. How does it feel to be rejected by hell itself?


 * N-No matter. At this point we don't care! We're gonna explode that robot just to spite you!


 * Oh, I don't think you have enough time.


 * What...?!


 * You said the Underworld is all about prestige and image right?


 * After this no one in hell will want to work with you.


 * Sponsors... brands... hell, even power stations!


 * What I'm saying is you don't have enough time to destroy the bot before...


 * Electricity in your building will go down and you'll lose connection to the bot.


 * Tch..


 * This is only just one of our divisions...


 * No way in hell we're losing our media empire to some washed up rockstar!


 * Maybe not today, but this isn't the last time you and your people will see IRIS involved!


 * You two-faced, backstabbing, lying little-








 * ...Ow.


 * Mr. Dearest, that punch hurt, you know?


 * *gasp* Hex! You're back!


 * Yea... Sorry I ruined it all again. I really need a proper antivirus for this kind of stuff.


 * Pshh, you're fine dude. That's all that matters now!


 * ...Y'know, you were pretty cool there. Maybe I wasn't there physically but, I've heard it all.


 * I'm glad i have a friend who is willing to save my life two times now!


 * But, I guess my lack of security measures ruined the show, huh...


 * Hmm, I wouldn't say that, seems like the audience felt something during that little fight.


 * Look! Hashtags like #SaveHex and #IRISIsOverParty are trending!


 * Wow... people... cared for me?


 * They say robots can't cry but... *electronic sniff* I kinda want to.


 * Maybe we should get you off the stage now, it's been a long day...


 * ...Yea... Thank you.

Ciliar : Sir, i have the results.

Infernus : ...

Ciliar : This month had seen a significant drop in revenue.

Ciliar : I presume it's due to the situation involving Dearest and his people.

Ciliar : Currently we're working on bribing people of influence to reduce decay of our image.

Ciliar : We've also contacted several people who could carry out your goal in the other world.

Infernus : Hmm, skip the financial part and tell me how our project is going.

Ciliar : We're in the final stages of preparation.

Infernus : ''Ah, finally! Some good news.''

Infernus : For now we'll switch focus onto that blue-haired mortal.

Infernus : I've never been so humiliated in my entire career, and it's all Dearest's fault!

Infernus : Then again, he won't be so happy when he's the one on the losing side.

Ciliar : Or we could just leave that geezer alone and focus on the actual company.

Ciliar : Ah, sir. One more thing.

Ciliar : Are we still gonna take advantage of the robot?

Infernus : ''Hmm... He can still be useful.''

Infernus : Besides, I think Project: SLASHER will take a liking to him.

Slasher : ...}}
