Takofuusen (たこふうせん, "Octopus balloon", internally known as モノ飛行, "Flying Mono") is a decorative character that can be found flying by in the White Desert A.
Overview
Takofuusen is a large monochrome creature. It has a balloon-like body with two arms sprouting from below it. It appears to be puffed up near the middle of its body, as if swollen or muscular. It also has two squinted eyes, making it appear as if it's emoting joy.
When in the White Desert A, there is a 1/3600 chance that Takofuusen will appear across the screen. This chance is rolled approximately once every half second, making an average wait of thirty minutes between Takofuusen's appearances. They will simply move from the right of the screen to the left, accompanied by a drum beat similar to the sound the Fisherman makes. The player can simply idle in order to see Takofuusen, as walking around is not required to see them fly by.
There is no way to interact with Takofuusen, as it is purely decorative and unaffected by any effects.
Trivia
- Takofuusen seems to resemble the symptoms of a birth defect known as twin reversed arterial perfusion or "TRAP sequence", where one of a pair of birthed twins is severely malformed, generating only a torso and the lower half of a body. According to an article by the Indian journal of radiology and imaging, TRAP sequence has a 1 in 35000 chance of occurring. It only ever occurs in monochorionic (identical) twins, which is interesting because most NPCs that reside in the White Desert have names starting with mono (being short for "monochrome"), with the White Desert's Japanese name even being that.
Theories
Takofuusen is highly regarded by fans as one of the strangest characters in the game not only due to its appearance, but also the manner in which it is seen by the player. As a result, there are interpretations of what it could represent if anything at all.
As Takofuusen resembles a TRAP sequence twin (see Trivia), some believe it to be an unborn sibling of Madotsuki, as TRAP sequence only occurs in twin pregnancies. This could also relate to the Severed Heads also found in the White Desert, which are often seen as her parents. Monoko and Monoe could also possibly be Madotsuki's interpretation of what her sibling could have looked like, as both have a similar appearance and attire to Madotsuki while Monoe slightly resembles Madotsuki with the Long Hair effect. As there are many scenes in the game related to the theme of traffic accidents (for example, Shitai-san, Mars-san and Monoko), it could have died in such an incident, and its presence could indicate that Madotsuki still thinks about this frequently, causing her grief.
Another theory is that Takofuusen itself is Masada's Spaceship, with its eyes being windows, or it could possibly be one of the UFOs searching for Madotsuki and Masada on Mars.
