"GET OUT."

—Kelbris, Wayward Horizon

Kelbris was a member of the Moon Children, and a prophet to the modern members as he claimed to have been contacted by Luna, the deity that embodies the moon and the subject of the Moon Children's worship. His interpretation of the end of the world and subsequent mysterious death made him a legendary figure within the cult. During the Moon Children Arc, he was discovered to have possibly ascended, as he was present on youshouldnthavedonethat.net.

It is implied through video titles and image file names released during the Awakening Arc that he is also the enigmatic figure The Father.

History

1998

Kelbris was said to have received whispers from Luna around this time. Her messages were distorted and sometimes contained the number 3 said between words, and sometimes between letters. Afterward, he was found electrocuted, but the reason was never discovered.

Moon Children Arc

Kelbris' presence on youshouldnthavedonethat.net was first detected on the contact page for DROWNED, which contained Kelbris.jpg and the text, "Dead End. Go back," as well as a cipher in the title that translated to, "MY EYES... THEY TOOK... MY EYES..." The Search page also contained a possible message from Kelbris, "Do you honestly think you can escape me?"

During the Second Cycle, the Song of Healing was played, which triggered a message from Kelbris on the main page. The username read, "WHO DO YOU THINK THIS IS," and the post read, "I AM KNOCKING AT YOUR DOOR NEXT. LET ME IN. I WANT TO SPEAK." The post was made at 6:66pm (realistically, 7:06pm). Rosa's disappearance soon afterward is attributed to this action, and Kelbris is believed to be responsible for Ifrit's as well.

An account belonging to Kelbris was found in the Tenor group on Within Hubris. When Wayward Horizon was unlocked by users, a topic from him titled "..." was found. It consisted only of "GET OUT."

Awakening Arc

Nearly a decade later, THE FATHER.wmv was uploaded to Jadusable's YouTube channel, marking the titular entity's first physical appearance. During the upload process, the title of the video changed numerous times, apparently detailing a back-and-forth struggle between the channel's proprietor and BEN, before settling on the current name — originally, the video was being uploaded as KELBRIS.wmv.

Subsequently, a number of images of The Father were found under new URLs to the Methods of Revolution website which identified the subject not as The Father, but as Kelbris himself. This was taken to indicate that Kelbris and The Father were the same "person".

Personality

Not much is known about Kelbris, but he is shown to be aggressive and murderous, as he is believed to be responsible for both Ifrit's and Rosa's disappearances.
