Prisoner

You are now this guy.

Prisoners are the main characters from Jailbreak; as their titles suggest, they're stuck in a prison, and as the name of their story indicates, their main goal is to get out of there.

Three prisoners are playable, with their perspectives taking over the story at various points throughout the mis/adventure.

The First Guy[]

You start as this prisoner when first beginning Jailbreak. He is in his cell with absolutely nothing, useful or otherwise. Over the course of the game this Prisoner murders a Dungeon Master, makes himself a suit of armor out of some pumpkins, and gets harpooned.

The Other Guy[]

This prisoner starts out in between two of the prison buildings, while still locked, it's not a regular-sized cell or probably not even a cell at all. Over the course of the game he gets peed on, is vomited on, and builds a robot.

Partway through the story this guy finds a secret door into an adjacent cell, where he sees the skeletons of two long-dead fellow prisoners.

The Drill Guy[]

The last pPrisoner starts in the cell above the first guy. In his room is a giant drill which he has never thought to use as a tool for escape. He manages to snap his own neck after his head gets stuck in a hole in the floor. His blood trickles down into The First Guy's room.

The First Guy, Again[]

Main article: MSPA reader

After a Game Over, Jailbreak starts over with the first guy again. This time he manages to escape fairly easily after beseeching the help of an elf.

After attempting to kidnap a bus full of children and a pony, this guy continues on a downward spiral of mental instabilityJB icon. After the pony goes on to win Jailbreak, this guy at some point "became fixated on the idea of suicide in the proximity of this tree stump with a harpoon stuck in it".[1] From the vicinity of the stump, this guy went on to be an avid reader of the subsequent MS Paint Adventures, even one that took place in the past of this guy's own world.

  1. Andrew Hussie. "Then we pull back a little more, and the reader gets in on the act. This is a rather plain-looking character in the story who represents you, in front of your computer, with a gun (except now you're in front of a book, with a gun). We first met him in Problem Sleuth, when the final boss revealed he had a million more health meters. But he originated in Jailbreak, the first MSPA comic, as a guy who, upon breaking out of jail, at some point became fixated on the idea of suicide in the proximity of this tree stump with a harpoon stuck in it. Don't go looking for Jailbreak, or read it, ever. It is the most cursed tale I have ever written in my life. We shouldn't even be talking about it. Nevertheless, I think this character makes for a great avatar for the reader in general. A long-suffering, walleyed individual who conveys a certain air of helplessness over the material he views, his struggle to understand it, and his complete impotence when it comes to halting his addiction to this content. Suicide is never far from his mind, and hardly a thing takes place on this website which does not in some way cause him to meditate upon the notion of ending it all. This being is your guiding spirit, and to deny this is to spew lies. He apparently hails from a stark and lonely planet called LOSAD." Homestuck: Book 4: Act 5 Act 1, p. 357. February 12, 2019.
