Appearance: Although it has no definite shape, it has taken on many appearances throughout the story. Sometimes, it takes the shape of a character that's important to its in-lore host.

That being said, it usually starts as a pile of muscle tissue and glands, with yellow eyes covering it.

Modus operandi: The Oracle is a literary parasite, capable of spreading itself through stories. It shapes the stories presented throughout the Hello Charlotte series, compelling the player to keep exploring, to keep playing— and, with some hope, to start theorizing.

It gains power through the attention people give it, and the way they develop it beyond the original concept within the series.

Once it has enough power, it compels the host to start writing their own potential scenarios with it, or possibly even their own stories with a different iteration of itself.
