okay so this is a rant abt smth none of yall know abt (SADLY) but I feel the need to write down my thoughts publicly because I want to :)

theres these cool games called mysteries of the house, in a summary a bunch of guys live in a house controlled by the creator, who is basically a god (though not all powerful just very powerful), and they all have magical abilities. now, I want to look at the different parallels between members of the house.

each of the three completed games (ignore game four its irrelevant for this) have two members of the house in the title, first off the jester and the prince, then the phantom and the sun, then the maiden and the moon. we have one more character with a name like that, the reaper. there are some pretty obvious pairs there, right?

if we follow that logic, each house member should have a pair. the prince and the maiden, the phantom and the reaper, the sun and the moon, and the mc and his sister (theyre twins and neither have a name like all the others, they just go by their real names).

lets look at their abilities in comparison. all can have some sort of connection.

first, the prince's ability, his main one is to make anyone he kisses sleep forever, while the maiden's ability is to extract some of someones life energy and put them into a physical object (typically her dolls though it can be anything) and grant that object temporary life. this energy can also be transferred to others to basically make them more powerful. both deal with someones life, and the prince takes it away fully from those who have life while the maiden grants it to things that dont have it.

then, the sun's ability is just cloning, but the main sun controls the clones and their duration. the moon's is to resurrect the dead as "moon spirits," beings that are there basically just to aid her in any way they can, though it takes away from her lifespan. both abilities give the user more people to help them in any situation, and are decently similar

next, the phantom's ability is to shapeshift into anyone who has the the same or less strength than him magically, and he gains their abilities and skills. the reaper's is to look at someone's past through eye contact. while its harder to find a connection than the others, they both have to do with others specifically and they cant do anything with them alone, and it relies on the different people the abilities are used on how helpful they are.

finally, the mc, or ellian, has the ability to control others with his voice. he can make them do anything if they hear him. his twin, ellora, has the ability to create and invisible barrier that stops the powers of others so they can't reach her. both can control abilities, the contrast being between ellian basically taking them while ellora gets rid of them.

now, who is missing there? the jester. jesters are hard to pair up, theyre typically seen solo. while your first thought would be jester goes with prince, he already has a pair so thats not possible. now, the jester is the only one who isnt human (outside of the moon spirits, who were humans up to their deaths), he's a demon. in the most recent demo, it is shown that this is because the jester made a deal with ego, a demon who is in direct opposition to the creator. while the creator can kill him, it only lasts as long as the creator remembers. he can and will always be back (william afton har har har har SORRY). the ego is obviously still there, as in another route he is shown in the present day. the specifics of the deal are ego says he would have part of himself "take root" inside the jester, which would take away his pain and suffering, saying "the world will no long break [him]." this deal was made earlier, and would be activated whenever the jester wanted. he activated it after his brother died.

the jester's ability is to create illusions. no other being in the house can do anything similar, at least not naturally. the only other one shown to be able to do this is ego, who is a clear outlier and against the house. alongside that, since he is a demon, he can also do all the normal demon stuff like have the urge to eat humans and if they drink his blood theyll basically just become whatever he wants. its implied ego has all of these abilities too, due to being a demon as well.

this makes me think, is the jester the real key to the figuring out the mysteries of the house? (name drop)

I wrote this all while watching dream academy with the final game above as reference.

can we tell this is one of my hyperfixations??

Im gonna color code this all now just so you know I am going in by hand for it. be thankful.
