Aesop Carl, also known as the Embalmer, is an Assist-Type and Difficulty 1.5 Survivor available for purchase after completion of the prologue. He is one of 43 playable Survivors added to Identity V. He was added due to being a winner of the Designer Five character creation contest.

The end of a journey deserves utmost the respect. —Aesop Carl (Deduction Star 2020)

Appearance

Aesop is a tall, thin doll with fair skin, side swept grey hair pulled into a short ponytail, thin grey eyebrows, shiny, small, light grey button eyes cross-stitched with grey thread, and a downturned mouth stitched with white thread at the corners.

He wears a white undershirt, a close-fitting cool grey jacket with white stitching at the cuffs and a white silk handkerchief in the lapel, matching, skinny grey trousers with haphazard white stitching, and black loafers. He wears white surgical gloves, and a white surgical face mask with black stitches covers his nose and mouth. He carries a metal makeup box with padded black leather casing in his right hand.

Gameplay

The Embalmer is an assist-type Survivor who is able to summon a Coffin which can used for rescuing not only himself but his teammates from being downed or chaired by the Hunter and teleport them to the Coffin and grant them invincibility from any damage from the Hunter for 7 seconds in addition to providing Tide Turner's effects, and the number of Coffins can increase whenever he performs a successful rescue, though only one can be used at a time. The Coffin will rescue he himself by default, but he is able to change who to rescue by selecting a teammate and interacting with the Coffin to embalm them instead. He is able to detect the presence of all teammates initially for 15 seconds at the start of the game, but will have his own decoding speed reduced if decoding with a teammate. He possesses the ability to change the tide of a game if he successfully embalms a downed teammate and have the Coffin next to an opened Exit Gate, second floor buildings, and rescue survivors if both Embalmer and his teammates are incapable of rescuing due to being injured or too far.

External Traits

Below is a list of Embalmer's intrinsic traits. For more in-depth information, please check the individual pages.

External Traits
Trait	Description
Embalm	Rebirth is cast on self by default, so players are able to save themselves when they're knocked down or placed on a Rocket Chair. The Embalmer carries his makeup box everywhere. Opening it will summon a coffin with a surrogate in it and immediately provides the Rebirth ability. When a player with the Rebirth ability is knocked down or placed on a Rocket Chair, the Embalmer will have 3s to make a choice. Selecting "Rebirth Now" will immediately cause the player to enter the Rebirth process. Selecting "Cancel Rebirth" will stop the player from entering the Rebirth process, while retaining the effects and the current Coffin. When no selection is made, the Rebirth process will start by default. The Embalmer can summon a coffin where he stands. Rebirth When a Survivor is knocked down or placed on a Rocket Chair, they can be resurrected in that coffin using a surrogate, after which they're invulnerable to damage from the Hunter's normal attacks and most Hunter abilities for 7 seconds and will also receive the Tide Turner's effect for 15 seconds. When the exit gate is opened, using Rebirth will no longer grant the two effects mentioned above. Every time the Embalmer is rescued from a Rocket Chair, the number of coffins that he can summon will increase, but an Embalmer can only summon and use one coffin at the time. Duo Hunters Mode After a Survivor with Rebirth is knocked down or put on a Rocket Chair, that Survivor will have 3 seconds to choose whether or not to activate the effect. The Embalmer cannot decide for them.
Artist	The Embalmer can record and copy the appearance of other survivors on to surrogates. The survivor whose appearance was copied will receive the Rebirth ability. Once the Embalmer finishes copying their appearance, he will lose his own Rebirth.
Unconcerned	The time that the Embalmer can persist for when wrapped up in a cocoon or placed on a Rocket Chair is increased by 10%. The Embalmer cannot embalm Survivors who have lost mobility, who have been placed on a Rocket Chair several times, or who have been placed on a Rocket Chair for a long time.
Anxious	Extremely sensitive to the presence of others. He is able to detect the presence of all survivors at the beginning of the game for 15 seconds. While deciphering with other survivors, his own deciphering speed is decreased by 15%.

Abilities in other Gamemodes

Embalmer Ability Changes in Other Game Modes
Modes		Change
Duo Hunters		No change
Blackjack		Embalmer can get 1 Coffin every round, and enter the resurrection process after being knocked down. After returning to alive, he will not get the effect of being immune to damage for 7 seconds. Embalmer can't receive the Tide Turner effect after Rebirth.
Tarot	Normal	Placing the coffin will grant ally King Rebirth by default, and no more than 1 coffin can exist at a time.
	Crystal Ball Mode	The Embalmer's surrogate is set to all teammates by default. After activating the Crystal Ball's power, it grants the Embalmer an additional use of his Makeup Box (you can only have one unused Makeup Box and one placed Coffin at any time during a match). Once resurrection is confirmed, the countdown for a Survivor's resurrection is reduced to 4 seconds. Rebirth can only be used on the King once and does not increase their Rocket Chair progress.

NetEase Character Notes

Translated from original Chinese posts

2018 Character Competition

Reasons for selection

This is a design that most people should have heard about already, since it is the most popular, and is our favorite as well. The design passed almost immediately. What attracted us to him is his unique identity — his connection with the dead. The first impression of his nature and secrets are inseparable from tragedy (of others).

On the one hand, his core ability "Embalm" provides the same tactical change of remote rescue as another new survivor. On the other hand, the built-in damage risk effect also makes the ability balanced. Incorrect usage may give the Hunter an opportunity to make a comeback. However, we still feel that the effect of this skill will be relatively strong, so in subsequent revisions, we may focus on how to provide Hunters with effective countermeasures to balance the benefits in the game.

It is worth mentioning that: The all-in-one weakened version (not immune to damage, can be healed, but will automatically fall to the ground after a period of time) is also an idea that we have considered to increase the performance benefits for Hunters. However, because we later had other designs, this idea was let go, and this role can just verify the feasibility of this idea.

【选案理由】 _2018-06-11

应该是大家呼声最高的一个设计，也是我们这边最喜欢的一个，几乎是第一时间就通过的。首先吸引我们的是他独特的身份——与死者的关联，让他的第一印象天然和秘密与（他人的）悲剧密不可分。而其核心能力【入殓】，一方面提供了和另一个新求生者相同的远程救人的战术变化，另一方面自带的劣化化险为夷效果也使得风险与收益同在，错误的使用可能会成为监管者翻盘的机会。不过这个技能效果我们仍然觉得会偏强，因此在后续修改中我们可能会着重考虑如何提供给监管者有效的反制手段，来平衡博弈收益。值得一提的是：全体自带弱化版化险为夷（不免疫伤害，可被治疗，但是一段时间后会自动倒地），也是我们之前考虑的一种提高监管者行为收益的思路。不过因为我们后来有了别的设计这个想法就被放下了，而这个角色刚好可以验证该思路的可行性。

2018 Character Release

Press "Expand" to see notes from the release announcement.

Between life and death, everything is solemn. NetEase's first asymmetric competitive mobile game "Identity V" will bring all players a new Survivor, "Embalmer" Aesop Carl. This character who stood out in the designer competition was designed by the player "@一oO妖怪Oo一(Weibo ID)". Not only does he have an amazing appearance, but he can also help his teammates return to life by virtue of his powerful "embalming" skills.

Man of send-offs: Step into the manor to fulfill the final wish.

The 21-year-old "Embalmer", Aesop Carl, prefers to be alone, and hates contact with living people, preferring to be close to the deceased. This is the fundamental reason why he engages in his profession. For those who have passed away, the end of the journey of life is always the same, and Aesop Carl has become the last person in many people's dreams. He strictly abides by every step of the procedure and pays the utmost respect to these passengers arriving at their final stop. So when Carl found the letter on the beautiful traveler with a mystery, he decided to step into the mysterious manor and fulfill the last wish for this unfortunate mother.

Rescue master: Special skills to reverse the situation

In terms of skill introduction, the role of the Embalmer in "Identity V" is clear: He is an indispensable assistant to the whole team. With the "make-up mastery" skill, the Embalmer can perform remote rescues, which can reduce the risk of rescuing to a certain extent. However, it should be noted that when the Embalmer is deciphering with others, his deciphering speed is reduced by 15%, and he lacks the ability to protect himself. Hunters need to rely on Broken Window Theory and basic skills. In general, the Embalmer is a survivor who needs a lot of awareness, and is suitable for players with a certain basic foundation.

Super high value, super strong! Invite friends to experience the new "Identity V" Survivor: Embalmer. Personally rescue every teammate, and create the most tacit ace group!

生死之间，皆是肃穆。网易首款非对称竞技手游《第五人格》，将给所有玩家带来全新求生者“入殓师”伊索-卡尔。这位从设计师大赛中脱颖而出的角色，由玩家“@一oO妖怪Oo一(微博ID)”亲手设计，他不仅颜值惊人，还能凭借强大的“入殓”技能，帮助队友附容返生。

送终之人 踏入庄园完成遗愿

21岁的“入殓师”伊索-卡尔，天生就喜欢独处，并且讨厌和活人接触，反而更加亲近逝者，这也是他从事这一职业的最根本原因。对于那些逝去的生命而言，人生的旅途终点总是大同小异，而伊索-卡尔则成为了大多数人梦想中的送终人。他严格地遵守每一步程序，对这些来到终点站的旅客报以最大程度的尊重。因此当卡尔在那位身世成谜的美丽旅客身上找到那封信后，他决定踏入神秘庄园中，替这位不幸的母亲完成最后的心愿。

救援高手 特殊技能逆转战局

技能介绍上来看，入殓师在《第五人格》中的定位也非常明确，他是整个团队中的不可或缺的辅助救人位，凭借“化妆精通”技能，入殓师可以实现远程救援，一定程度上能够降低救助的风险。不过需要注意的是，入殓师与他人一同破译时，自身破译速度降低15%，同时他乏自保能力，溜监管者需要依靠破窗理论和基本功。总的来说，入殓师是一名很需要意识的求生者，适合有一定操作基础的玩家。

超高颜值、超强实力!邀请好友一起来体验《第五人格》全新求生者入殓师，亲手救助每一位队友，打造最有默契的王牌天团!

• (The following was written by the original creator of his design, it is unknown how much of this is canon as his deduction targets seem to contradict it):
  • " On August 7th, 1888, I ushered in a female body stabbed 39 times. She lay there, her body in a state beyond recognition. I opened my suitcase, the tool I rely on to survive, for “he” can make the dead return to life. I worked hard to fix her face; perhaps, she was once a beautiful and wealthy woman. I searched through her pocket, and an invitation as well as a letter tumbled out. The letter seemed to be for her daughter and contained a photo. Probably, following this invitation, she could find her daughter. I don't know why, but I decided to accept the invitation as my own. I decided to head towards the manor myself, to return this letter to her daughter."

Original Backstory

Note: This is translated from the backstory written by Aesop's creator, and may contradict with his deductions.

"From when I was adopted from the orphanage, I began working with my adoptive father in the funeral parlor. My adoptive father was an embalmer, someone who concealed and dressed deceased to mimic their appearances when alive. Every day, I’d see my adoptive father in contact with the deceased, as if he himself was no longer afraid of death.

He told me that some of the deceased in this world could not identify their own departures, and we were the guides for those people. In the beginning, I believed that these talking deceased were alive, but gradually, as father spoke to those “deceased”, they also agreed with him; that they were already dead. Therefore, I firmly believe that only death is honest. To demonstrate to them and help them recognize the truth, to aid them in accepting death; that is what we must do.

The day I became of age, my adoptive father received an invitation. I didn’t know who had sent it, or its contents. To my surprise, he abandoned both the funeral parlor and I and left. He said that he felt a strong scent of death coming from there, perhaps something to challenge his skills. So he left, leaving the funeral parlor to me.

Ten degrees Celsius, hydrogen bromide, all prepared for those “corpses” who refuse to accept death. My adoptive father said that this will help relax their muscles and maintain a perfect state to embrace death. I skillfully practice this on a regular basis, and help my “deceased” deeply understand that death is the only truth.

That day, I received a different “corpse”; one I could actually recognize - my adoptive father. The certificate of death the hospital provided noted that he died due to falling from a high place, and wounds opened by sharp objects covered his body. How strange.

My adoptive father didn’t want to admit he was already dead. How could the adoptive father who once explained these principles to me make a mistake only “deceased” would? I felt sorrow for my adoptive father, for did I truly have to teach him the easy concept he once taught me?

Like the way he would correct the mistakes of other “deceased”, I injected medicine to help him relax into his veins and turned down the temperature. Soon, he fell into a deep sleep. A relaxed state such as this was perfect for me to embalm him!

A month after, it was his funeral; a funeral with no other attendees. My adoptive father never had any close acquaintances, and therefore there was nobody else there to perform his send-off. I think my presence alone was enough for his funeral. I wanted to help my adoptive father accept his own death faster, a departure with dignity.

Despite the fact that my adoptive father took longer than I anticipated to agree to embracing death, luckily, he relented before the date of his funeral. Even though there was nobody else present, still I prepared a luxurious funeral for him as my final act of respect for my adoptive father, in hope of him being able to enjoy such gifts in heaven.

As usual, I stayed in the funeral parlor every day, embalming “the deceased”, avoiding too much communication with others, living my ordinary life.

Until, the day I saw the invitation letter of that woman - the exact same patterned envelope the invitation my adoptive father had left for. Finally, I was able to experience the scent of death that my adoptive father had been so attracted to; he led me to the manor, to find me a new “deceased person”."

Original Concept External Traits

• Embalm = The Embalmer carries a large wooden box with him. After long pressing the accumulator to select a place, he can move the box from his back and insert it in the ground. After placing the box, he can start putting makeup on the person in the box. The make-up process can be interrupted at any time, and there will be a period of time after the interruption that he cannot use his ability again. When he finishes applying the makeup, the survivor who was originally in the chair will recover and walk out of the box. After 30s, the survivor will enter the first-order injury state. After 15s, the survivor will be injured again. If the survivor is treated during this period, they will enter the first-order injury, otherwise they will become incapacitated.

• Social fear = When there are teammates near the Embalmer, the speed of deciphering and opening the door is reduced by 20%, and the speed of healing and being healed is reduced by 30%

• Indifferent to life and death = The time that the Embalmer can stay on the rocket chair or in the spider silk cocoon is increased by 20%

Concept / Design Notes

At first, I only wanted to design a character who could save people from a distance, so I thought of three potential options: a professional soul guide, a linker, and an embalmer. After careful consideration, I chose the embalmer. In order to break people's stereotyped image of the middle-aged and old, gloomy and weird, the image of young people is adopted. In order to highlight the characteristics of the character, a braid is added. Two versions of clothing (black suit and white overalls) embody professional dignity. Considering that the overalls are inconvenient for running, the previous version was finally selected. Due to being in contact with the dead for a long time, he was not good at communicating with the living, and had a mild social phobia.

• The design prototype of the Embalmer comes from the player —o0妖怪0o—

Change Log

December 27th, 2018

• Addition: Embalmer is now obtainable from the Illusion Hall.
• Addition: Embalmer is now available in Ranked Matches.

December 3rd, 2020

• Buff: Added an effect to the Rebirth trait: When a Survivor with Rebirth is knocked down, the Embalmer can choose to resurrect them. The resurrection of a Survivor who's been knocked down will be counted as if the Survivor has been put on a Rocket Chair once (for the Painter, his Rocket Chair progress will increase by 50% and will count as having been put on a Rocket Chair once). Survivors with Rocket Chair progress over 50% can't be resurrected when they're knocked down.
• Buff: Tapping the ability button again after the Embalmer has placed the coffin will transport the coffin to the player's location.
• Nerf: When the exit gate is activated, resurrection will no longer come with the Tide Turner effect.
• Nerf: When the exit gate is opened, the coffin can't be placed on the inside of the exit gate.
• Nerf: Once the Embalmer has escaped from the manor, coffins in the scene will be removed.

December 2nd, 2021

• Buff: The time required for the Embalmer to summon a coffin is reduced from 5 seconds to 2.5 seconds. The time required for a Survivor to come out of a coffin is reduced from 1.5 seconds to 1 second. The maximum distance for the Embalmer to memorize a teammate's face is adjusted from 12.7 meters to 21.9 meters.
• Buff: New Rebirth effect: Survivors won't take damage from the Hunter's normal attacks and abilities for 7 seconds after Rebirth. They can no longer receive this effect once the exit gate has been activated.

May 31st, 2023

• Adjustment: When an Embalmer is Resurrected from another Embalmer's Coffin, Rebirth will be given to him without having to apply makeup for himself if he has already placed a Coffin in the scene without applying makeup.

Trivia

• His favorite flowers are yellow roses. These are the flowers surrounding his mother's grave.
• The Embalmer was one of the winners of the 2018 character contest, along with Postman and Painter.
  • In development his creator originally intended to name him 'Aesop Nigel' as so he wouldn't share a name with another contest entry of the character design competition, "The Fallen Angel", but his name was later changed to 'Aesop Carl' by the developers after his victory against the other entry.
    • The two were often confused together by the fans due to their similar appearances during the contest period, and the other Carl's original contest entry Weibo post was deleted as the creator of the other Carl was suspected of vote manipulation. However, copies of their character design remain online.
• He appears in all three episodes of the stage play series produced in Japan. He was played by Hirai Yuki. He is one of the featured characters in the first episode, alongside Joseph. His Exorcist costume appears in the comedy special performances of all episodes.
• According to the Official Identity V Museum he is 177 cm tall (5'9).
