* First of all, that's not even his actual creator, just a character in the ARG surrounding the story. Second of all, it has been confirmed by multiple people that the souls end up in Sonic characters, not household objects.




to:

* Semi-confirmed. The first part in the new canon, a fanmade "week" for VideoGame/FridayNightFunkin, portrays Xen as a goofy little guy with a bad temper who's not meant to be taken seriously. However, Astro recalled the week, declaring it non-canon and banishing her beast from ever appearing in the game again, so the horror-comedy angle may be scrapped.

----* Actually, Round 2 reveals that X's victims don't really die at all, at least according to the morticians.

[[WMG: Tom is also a creepypasta monster]]
Tom is very powerful. He can recall the exact details of an image after seeing it for a single frame and tell that it ''was'', in fact, one frame exactly. He will go right in a game for hours on end without losing sight of his goal or enduring any physical discomfort. X couldn't even kill him physically, forcing them both into a Mandela-esque mind game, which at the very least proves a resistance to void attacks.
Tom also seems oddly disconnected from reality in his mental state. He casts his friend's well wishes aside in favor of a quick thrill with Sonic. He proceeds to bring the characters to their doom even when he realizes he gains nothing from it. He describes even mundane things such as the mailman delivering X to him in painstaking detail, as if he himself was unfamiliar with the process.
All of this combines to form a distant and unstable man who kills despite his own better judgement, knows your face from a single passing encounter, and is willing to track you down for days until he gets you. That's exactly the kind of character that would fit with the Eyeless Jacks and Jeff the Killers of the creepypasta industry - I'd even hazard to say he's wasted on the role of a protagonist to X's story.

[[WMG: Ignoring Round 2, Tom [[AmbiguousSituation may have]] survived.]]
I'm honestly surprised nobody has picked up on this. At the start of the pasta, when Tom is talking about how the events of it changed his view on Sonic forever, he speaks about them as if they had occured a decent while ago. This would likely mean that Sonic.exe ''didn't'' immediately kill him after pulling up with the plushie, thus letting Tom survive, at the very least, long enough to write the story down.

As the WMG proper says, I fully understand that you need to completely ignore Round 2 for this, as it confirms that Tom did, in fact, die. But even then, I'm not fully convinced that JC had both stories thought out the moment he was writing the first.

So Kyle got fed up with his idiot friend Tom constantly borrowing money from him to buy the latest Sonic game and never paying him back, while also complaining nonstop about how this new game “ruined Sonic” after having played it, only to then change his tune and lionize it while lamenting about next one, when not singing the praises of his OC, Tommy the Hedgehog, Sonic’s super awesome long lost brother who can fly, teleport and has reality warping powers, and how SEGA is stupid for not making him canon, so Kyle created this hacked game to get payback on Tom and hopefully kill the latter’s obsession with Sonic. He also planted that Sonic.exe doll while Tom was sleeping to make it extra convincing.

It's already been shown in the story that Sonic was willing to do really bad things to people that he called friends (such as fantasizing about raping Amy in more than one ocassion, aiding Espio in aborting Knuckles Jr without Rouge knowing, leaving Amy and Rogue trapped inside of detention despite them being as malnutritioned as an african kid as described by the narration, beating Amy to an inch of her life after he thinks that she cheated on him (despite the fact that he himself cheated on her), killing Vector, bullying Charmy for his homosexuality, etc). Maybe this takes place in a universe where after being ressurrected by the Ultra Chaos Emeralds by Shadow, he transformed into an evil creature like [[ComicBook/SonicTheComic Fleetway Super Sonic]], but instead of turning into "Super Sonic but evil", he turned into Sonic.exe! Why does he have those reality warping powers? Because the Ultra Chaos Emeralds have the power to grant any possible wish, and since he pretty much had all of their power to himself, he used them to become a PhysicalGod.

[[WMG: Tom is a family member of the protagonist of Fanfic/BloodWhistle]]
The two of them are extremely melodramatic about what's going on on a videogame and have pretty SkewedPriorities, except that while the guy from Blood Whistle was merely being '''way''' too dramatic (he committed suicide over A FUCKING ROM HACK for crying out loud), Tom was actually right about the in-game characters being living creatures.

[[WMG: Tom somehow knew the Sonic characters were real]]

One common complaint is why Tom is so worried about Sonic characters, over his own friend. The sequel reveals that they are real people drawn into the game.

Therefor Tom must have known about it, even if he did not realize it. Something must have made him realize on some level that the characters were genuine souls being tormented.
