HABIT

"I AM MANKIND'S BAD HABIT"

"You doin' good? You feelin' sassy?"

- HABIT's catchphrase.

EverymanHYBRID
HABIT is the primary antagonist of the ARG webseries EverymanHYBRID. At the start of the series the main focus was on Slender Man as the series main threat, but as the series progressed a new mysterious force known as HABIT came along. At first it was mentioned and hinted at briefly. After the protagonists of the series lose a close friend Ryan they link his death to something called The SEVENTRIALSOFHABIT. This was a tournament held by HABIT that made the participants (who he referred to as rabbits) do seven strange things. These included: After the trials and the deaths of several of the protagonist's friends at the hands of The Rake, Evan tells Vincent Everyman how he was attacked by their friend Nick and that he killed Nick in self defense. This turns out to be a lie when Jeff goes to Evan's house he finds Nick alive and is stabbed by Evan who has an evil smile on his face. It turns out the HABIT had posessed Evan and inside Evan's body tortured and killed Jeff. HABIT proceeds to burn Jeff's body and afterwards Slenderman shows up to claim it. Following that HABIT goes on to murder Evan's lover Stephanie and eat their newborn baby. After he shows up at another friend of theirs Daniel's house acting like Evan. HABIT procedes to choke Daniel to death.
 * 1) Bury and abandon a cherished object
 * 2) Elect team leaders and eliminate 16 Rabbits
 * 3) Sever ties with a friend, blaming it on them
 * 4) Recite a poem written by HABIT in a crowded area
 * 5) Create a gift for a friend and destroy it in front of them
 * 6) Protest local goverenment to request that HABIT be the place's new leader
 * 7) The final one cryptically said "Keep your body breathing." All evidence points towards the fact that the remaining Rabbits had to kill the rest of them in order to win. (To explain, if RABBIT #2 and RABBIT #3 are left, they have to kill each other. The one that stays alive wins the tournament.)

Later HABIT leaves Evan's body and Evan reunites with Vinny and begins living with him. Evan appears traumatized by what HABIT did in his body. After a long time of silence Vinny and Evan decide to summon HABIT for answers as to what is going on. HABIT returns to Evan's body and tells Vinny how dumb summoning him was. HABIT does admit it took courage and tells Vinny he will be bringing guests to him. HABIT leaves and goes on with his business regarding TribeTwelve's Noah ( For details, see 'TribeTwelve')

TribeTwelve
HABIT is a cameo caracter in season 1 and a minor antagonist later main antagonist of season 2 in the ARG series TribeTwelve. He helps Firebrand break free of The Collective, during the video SEVERANCE he brings Noah to his house and asks him a couple of questions. He explains a couple of things to him, aswell as ordering Noah to draw the simbol that appeared during the last few years. Noah then drew the symbol wrong a couple of times, when HABIT specified that it needs to be fully correct for it to 'work'. After his second try, HABIT firstly warns Noah he'll cut off his right shoulder by taking out a dice with human body parts marked, but the thrid time, he does it correctly. HABIT then explains the meaning of Severance. A man is heard from the bathroom across the room. After HABIT opens the door, it reveals to be a certain stranger, stabbed in the side. There are many speculations who this actually is. Nothing has been confirmed. After the conversation, HABIT kicks Noah out of his house, leaving him to wander Piscataway, New Jersey.

Two months later,  later in the video Bridge to Nowhere, Noah was transported to an alternate reality(or another dimension) named Candleverse, Jeff who was killed by HABIT appears on a bridge Firebrand instruected him to go to, and tells Noah to kill himself, claming He can't be the hero of this. With Jeff leaving Noah, HABIT appears on camera. For possibly the first time, we hear HABIT's true voice. A sinister, demonic one. HABIT threatens Noah, mocking him with saying he don't have the guts to kill himself, to which Noah spits in his face. Later on, HABIT kicks Noah in the groin, leaving him in his house in Florida.

MLandersen0
After the events of TribeTwelve, it was obvious that HABIT would appear in MLandersen0, he makes a minor appearance in "HELLO" when Vincent Everyman drugs Shaun Andersen. He later appears in "GOODBYE" as the main antagonist of the episode, torturing and probaly killing Eric while Vin records the event.

Personality & Appearance
A really 'sassy' person. He's a maniac, but has his 'warm' side, although it just usually leads up to his personal profit. He makes fun out of people, considering them mere 'Rabbits', waiting for slaughter. His sense of humor reminds people of Beetlejuice.

HABIT's appearance depends on the host he's inHABITing, but when he inHABIT's Evan, he makes him look more cheerful, happy and well. It's most likely due to his 'healing' powers. He's very often seen with a specific purple disortion when shown on camera.

Powers & Abilities

 * Teleportation. This is shown several times, like when Noah tries to run away from HABIT, and he ends up popping up behind him and grabbing his shoulder.
 * Possessor. He possesses Evan for the majority of his on screen time.

Theories

 * HABIT is either a ghost, spirit, demon, or possibly a fallen angel that can possess people. The scenes in Ryan & the SEVENTRIALSOFHABIT seem to indicate that he is currently possessing Evan.
 * HABIT is an unreasonably powerful alternate personality of Evan's. Also, Evan of the Mining Town Four was nicknamed HABIT.
 * HABIT is the incarnation of evil itself.
 * HABIT is the Rake - the circumstances around Ryan's death seems to indicate he was killed by the Rake after having entered HABIT's contest. Also, Alex, who has been persecuted by the Rake, had for a while his channel's background changed to a dead rabbit. Additionally, on the MLAndersen0 video, GOODBYE, HABIT acts a little bit like the Rake at times; he crawls and jumps around Shaun.
 * HABITTwitter-0.jpg is an electronic presence, a "ghost in the machine," who can interact directly through Twitter and e-mail.
 * The Rake is one of HABIT's "experiments" similar to Nicholas who is described in the blog post, "A LITTLE ONGOING EXPERIMENT OF MINE."
 * If he is not Slenderman's enemy, HABIT could be a "Slenderproxy" (a term used in other series to mean someone who works for Slenderman.) His habit of writing in all caps has been exhibited by known Slenderproxies in other series. Similarly HABIT's seemingly otherworldy powers make him a "Black Pawn Revanent," another term popularized in other series. They are proxies that the Slenderman has given powers like his own, but weaker.
 * HABIT's experiment is to try to create a "perfect shell" for him to inhabit.
 * HABIT is a combination of the souls of the worst serial killers in history.
 * HABIT is an entity that uitlizes the Severence/Observer symbol to control people.
