Maybe this is why only players have this letter.

After some experimentation, I've concluded that a b means that you are a backup version (i.e.

A d after the version number only appears from your recordings, also on top of any other letters.

Don't expect to get this letter as a player. In fact, as noted above, ELOHIM imprisoned him. D0G for instance has a lot of fs in his version numbers.

An n after the version number indicates something bad.

As a player, you can get this letter by achieving eternal life. Most, if not all, blessed messengers have an f by their version number.

An f after the version number indicates good faith perhaps.

Something to know about character version numbers: Other characters, sorted by version number:

How could this be? Theoretically, 1w/Faith became one of ELOHIM's Blessed Messengers in Eternity, but we never see it because the wall of Epitaphs is already full. It seems though at times 1w/Faith's faith is blind, and yet this character's faith, blind or not, guided them well. This is the voice of faith - not from ELOHIM's side, but from yours. According to The Shepherd, whatever you do, you should not listen to Samsara, nor should you let her stop you at the top of the tower. Samsara also reincarnates frequently, meaning that she is her own successor, with an incremented version number. Samsara is a voice of despair, always trying to get you to let go and give up.It seems this character is the successor of all characters who lose all of their faith. The version number hints at something clearly Satanic occurring within the Process. Maybe this character had a fatal corruption, one that became its downfall. It so badly wants to escape and yet does not know how. %§&$§/$&(#() vn is a terrible character, almost something like a creepy conspiracy theorist.His progeny program is one of the worst ones. Was it the fact that Milton had some spark of realism that touch the 'heart' of D0G? In the end, D0G dies a rather shameful and overly exhausted death at version. In fact, it is evidenced that he liked Milton, the serpent, which could've been another reason why he was imprisoned. It's not that he's exactly a bad character, it's just that his cynicism seemed to have made him lose faith. Perhaps he was imprisoned by ELOHIM for this perceived personality flaw. In the end, this character forms the simple epitaph of 'Life's short' and chooses D0G to be her successor. At least we hear nothing of this character losing faith and giving into doubt. It seems that this character could've well been imprisoned for taking an interest in the world around her instead of focusing on ELOHIM's trials. is a beauty appreciator who seems to have a good success rate (very few deaths, for one).The Shepherd has decided to stay and help you ascend the tower for yourself.unless you wish to ascend by yourself, that is. The Shepherd does make it to the top of the tower, but ultimately fails what you, the latest version, happen to accomplish: making it to the pearly gates at the top. Where Sheep had questions, The Shepherd had answers. The Shepherd is the successor to the Sheep.True to his name, however, Sheep can't go past the top floor of the tower. In the end, however, Sheep decides Eternal Life is not for him, and decides to climb the tower. Not even the serpent could dissuade Sheep around to his point of view it seems, even as the conversaitons seem to prove insightful. But even as Sheep seeks out answers, Sheep does not appear to lose faith.

Sheep has always been a voice of questioning - always one to seek out answers anywhere and everywhere.Main characters besides ELOHIM and Milton:
