Personality
During the events of BFUP and Battle, Pentagon is portrayed as a wealthy, yet enigmatic host, whose main goals in hosting are simply to host. He holds multiple powers, from teleportation to pyrokinesis. This rendition of Pentagon is continued through Battle, though in said camp he is more empathetic towards his contestants and is generally more outgoing.
In CaST, Pentagon retains his enigmatic personality and powers, but his hosting status is brought into question as his physics-breaking powers bring law enforcement into the picture. For a majority of Early CaST, Pentagon is incredibly skittish, and is quick to escape from any situation he deems could put him in danger. He holds his contestants in low regard, often dodging or flat-out ignoring their questions and demands. Additionally, during Late CaST/WHAT, Pentagon appears to break reality in a physical representation of Cancellation. After this, his personality is shoved to the side to further demonstrate his corrupted nature.
In PWIP, Pentagon is less experienced, and he often confuses results, leading to him being seen as a burden rather than a captain. He is more interested in exploring the lands than tending to a cast of contestants, so he delegates his duties to his co-hosts. More of his reality-breaking abilities are shown, including retaining memories across multiple versions of himself. In the unfinished PWIP 4b, Pentagon becomes withdrawn after his kidnapping, and only returns to aid his contestants in the planned PWIP 6b by using his counterparts' powers to drive back a dice-based antagonist.
Not much has been shown of PWIP+ yet, but Pentagon seems to have returned to his more experienced nature, yet still having trouble with commanding, as his contestants frequently overpower him in decisions, such as the aforementioned one to have a permanent merge, instead using the default teams format.
External Appearances and Personality
Pentagon appears in COBRA as a contestant. He does not receive any screentime in terms of plot, only having dialogue at his elimination. From the little that was seen, Pentagon appeared to be a timid contestant who prefers to work in the background.
Additionally, Pentagon also appears in Early CRUSADE, seeming much more confident than his other appearances at the same time. Again, not much of him is seen, and in Later CRUSADE Pentzal uses a Respec Egg to transform Pentagon into a Keeper-adjacent character, overwriting his personality.
Abilities
Teleportation - In New Placings, Pentagon teleports himself (seemingly accidentally) and his contestants into a field close to his hosting building.
Pyrokinesis - In Path Pusher, Pentagon sets fire to the forest, killing all of the remaining contestants in order to quickly bring everyone back to the building using the FLOOPER.
Matter Creation - In Your free trial has expired, Pentagon creates his building out of thin air, violating multiple laws of physics.
Astral Projection - In See Why Ess, Pentagon dreams of a version of himself from an alternate dimension.
Summoning from Alternate Universes - In the planned PWIP 6b, Pentagon summons a shield from an alternate universe to defeat the dice-based antagonist.
Coding(?) - In Challenge 1, Pentagon creates a page of himself on the wiki, despite not typing a single letter of code.
Weaknesses
Fire and Rock - In Pentzal's Pre-OBESE 1 entry, it is revealed that Pentagon is an Ice/Steel type, and his adversary uses a wildfire and a bevvy of boulders to defeat him.
Coverage
