Null

A Null is a parasitic creature present in The Human Game. They do not live in the facility by default, but rather arrive when the players do so and were not created, but born. There are various types of Null, from which some are based on animals. These types are set in different categories each bearing a symbol, making compiling easier. Note that there are more types of Null than there are players.

Nulls live inside the players as soon as they enter the game. While Nulls are all violent as their only wish is to survive, some of them hesitate to kill other Nulls or cannot move and weep over and over.

The process to be fully taken over by a Null is called nullification.

Named Types of Null
As far as we are now, there are three types known by name:

The Insects (Seth Turner Sato)
Insects usually are the first to take over their host and have a 60% chance of succeeding in doing so. They are very strong, but also very fragile.

The Wildcard
An unpredictable, most dangerous type of Null. Also called the Beast. A very special type of Null to the point that the author does not even know if it is to be classified as Null.

The Spineless (Confirmed to be none of the current players)
It is unknown to what exactly this type is. However, it is said, that there were multiple things taken into consideration when naming it.

Unnamed Types of Null
Then, there are a few types who do not have a name yet, but a description is given of them instead:


 * A type that cannot move. They keep weeping, over and over, and may seem weak. However, do not come close, per Prometheus' advice - they are still as much as a Null as any other. They may be The Spineless.
 * Joe Verger's Null 'wants to have a voice'.
