STRAY DOG

UNUSED CONTENT The article contains content that was unused or removed from the full release of OMORI.

STRAY DOG is an unused enemy in OMORI. It was originally planned to be fought within FARAWAY PARK at evening^[1] and RECYCULTIST'S HQ. It only appears in the 2019 prototype of the game.

PROFILE

STRAY DOG takes on the appearance of an aggressive-looking dog with glowing red eyes. Its overworld sprite shows it colored golden-brown and has dark brown ears facing downwards. STRAY DOG mostly appears to be angry, evident by its expression and its constant slobbering as well.

OVERVIEW

STRAY DOG was only originally planned to appear in the REAL WORLD segments through FARAWAY PARK at evening and RECYCULTIST'S HQ. It would either be fought as a single enemy or fought alongside a CROW, RECYCULTIST, or two of itself. However, its enemy data and battle sprites still exists within the game's data and files respectively.

SKILLS

SKILL	NOTES	DAMAGE
ATTACK	STRAY DOG uses a biting attack! _____ takes damage.	(ATTACK x 2 - Foe's DEFENSE)
HOWL	STRAY DOG makes a piercing howl!	-

All skills, unless stated otherwise, have a 20% variance rate. This means they will do between 80% and 120% of their regular damage.

AI

SKILL	NOTES	EMOTION
		NEUTRAL	HAPPY	SAD	ANGRY
ATTACK	STRAY DOG uses a biting attack!	60%	50%	40%	70%
HOWL	STRAY DOG makes a piercing howl!	100%	100%	100%	100%

Every turn, each enemy will start by trying to use the skill listed at the top. If the calculation fails, they move on to the second skill and so on, until reaching the final skill which is guaranteed to activate. Each calculation is done independently from the previous ones, so the added percentage is not 100%.

TRIVIA

• Like with CROW, STRAY DOG's enemy sprite is colored completely monochrome. It is unknown why but the original palettes can be seen in their "enemies" folder sprites.
• STRAY DOG is one of the various unused enemies that can still be found within the game's code.
• There is unused data in the game's files for STRAY DOG, which indicates there were plans for it to be a proper regular enemy at some point, as shown above.
  • Despite not being programmed to drop any EXP or CLAMS nor having a FOE FACTS! entry, STRAY DOG is otherwise fully functional, as it has its own stats, skills, and even AI.
• The text used for all of STRAY DOG's skills notably references the Earthbound enemy Runaway Dog.
