Talk:The Rotten/@comment-68.36.99.169-20140430031004/@comment-24249492-20140529210240

Well, the Deep Pit, the Gutter, and Black Gulch is basically one giant garbage can. The dead, anything harmful, or unwanted equipment is thrown down there. Somehow, a giant pile of dead bodies fused together. This "Rotten" is not mean or aggressive in anyway - he's usualy very considerate. He is very welcoming to the trash and remains that fall down there. However, when he sees you - the player, somebody from the world above - he gets angry that you come down there bringing destruction to his carefully crafted world.

I got all of these theories from the slippery walls and carefully placed paths in the Gutter, my constantly smashing of statues in the Black Gulch, the Rotten's delicate recreation of the statue (which, started in the world of above - there's 2 statues right next to the pit), and the Rotten Soul description.

That's my take on this all.
