Memory, the player character, embodies the concept of memory by allowing their Chosen One, The Mother, to perfectly recall everything shes experienced through her many, many years of living.(For instance, a gift that reduces chance to dodge based off of the torpor he was often in as a result of the plague doctors injecting him with all sorts of drugs in their experiments to find a cure for The Plague.) The Child also seems to have a devastating scream, which kills The Mother in the intro and he can affect certain gameplay mechanics with his gifts that can appear randomly during a play through. These are what you fight during the game. Suffering embodies the concept of suffering by allowing his Chosen One, the Child, to create various monstrosities based on the traumas and suffering hes been forced to endure during his life.They seem to grant powers to their ∼hosen Ones in this reality depending on the concept they embody. Anthropomorphic Personification: The Others that the game is partially named after seem to be this, aside from living in a dimension different from our own and most of them probably not actually looking human-like at all (Suffering looks like some sort of squishy egg with a claw-like arm with long, spindly fingers embracing it).Figuring out exactly what's going on and where you are is part of the game. Ambiguous Situation: Time and space are a bit warped your "home base," if you can call it that, seems to just be an eldritch void from which the ghost of Mother dispatches her daughters, and you're thrown into this world en media res.Amazon Brigade: You're in command of the Daughters, an entirely female unit with the same genetic base.Better make sure you kill everything on the field or have interrupts ready, or you can expect a world of hurt. Alpha Strike: Burst, in a nutshell- You get an extra 50 action points above the standard 50, but your next turn on the initiative tracker comes in 100, rather than 50, time units later.All of the Other Reindeer: Mother was shunned by others from her village as a child for being a "voidkin".Alas, Poor Villain: Most bosses get a moment of sorrow before they're dispatched, with one of the most poignant belonging to Suffering, surprisingly.Suffering Ah, Memory remembers itself at last. It's also stated that this seems to be common with Chosen ones, and that once bonded with an "Other", the Chosen one ceases to age. Reading through Mother's memories reveals that the player is an "Other", a benevolent spirit from beyond the veil who has bonded with the Mother, and who has been her companion throughout her entire life.
Can also be invoked by the player by literally summoning new Daughters right before you fight the final boss.The Scytherdancer only joins the battle partway through the third of five bosses, but can then be birthed as normal like all Daughters.It is also a Nintendo Hard Roguelite, with the oppressive power of your foes and painful lack of healing serving to accentuate the surreal, Stark Gothic Punk atmosphere.
