Unused Outfits#

{[fn|outfit.rpyc}} also contains some references to two unobtainable outfits that appear to be Homestuck references, of all things! No graphics for them exist in the game's files, though.

Early Dossier#

dossiers.rpyc contains an unused copy of Corisande's dossier code, seemingly an earlier version given the name. It has the same text as the final version, but with a few formatting differences.
