Hans is a Bulk Being, and a member of the 5th Dimension Public Service League. After finishing a main storyline, Hans will appear at a random area, offering to give players Cosmic Awareness and great knowledge. He was ordered to do this by The Mode, who was distributing knowledge and gear to the brave adventurers of the 3rd Dimension. Attacking Hans will cause him to back away and disappear. If the player launches a projectile at him, he will deflect it. It is possible to kill Hans in the 3rd Dimension, but doing so will cause Military League units to appear and attack. If the player accepts his offer, he will bring them to the 5th Dimension. If the player already has Cosmic Awareness, he will not go to them.
Description
Hans resembles a human hand, fingers pointed down. However, his body only has four limbs, giving him a more humanoid appearance. His face is right in between his arms, the top of his body ends in a wrist-like knob. He has a light tan skin tone, which changes to grey within the 5th Dimension. His right arm resembles a thumb, and is shorter than his left arm. The ends of each of his limbs are over-sized nails. He has no hands or feet, or any gripping appendages, and is able to hold and manipulate objects nonetheless.
Giving Knowledge
Hans was a part of the 5th Dimension Public Service League, and was tasked with spreading Cosmic Awareness to the adventurers of the 5th Dimension. If the player accepts his offer, he will take them to the 5th Dimension.He will then offer them a choice: A test of strength or a test of intellect, as Cosmic Awareness must be earned. If the player chooses a test of intellect, Hans will ask them questions concerning existence, their own purpose, the Multiverse, and sometimes even a math problem. If the player chooses to take a test of strength, Hans will first summon in a Mind Parasite. The parasite will try to enter the player's mind and consume it, and the player must thwart it and then use the power of their own mind to kill it. Afterwards, the player will have to defeat a Bulk Monster in combat. The Military League brings in Nikayla, then makes her attack the player. Successfully passing both tests will cause Hans to bestow Cosmic Awareness on the player, which is almost impossible to achieve otherwise. Afterwards, Hans sends the player back to the 3rd Dimension.
