Twisted Rodger is an Uncommon Twisted found in Dandy's World. Upon 100% completion of his Research, you will acquire the Magnifying Glass Trinket.

Appearance

Twisted Rodger is quite similar to his Toon Counterpart, but he has a few changes. His eye is wide open, and the glass surrounding it has a slight red tint. His handle has a light purple band that goes around it and has Ichor slightly splashed on the end. He wears a gray, almost-black tuxedo jacket with dark purple lapels and cuffs, as well as a white undershirt, and a frilly jabot the same color as the band around his handle. His legs are fully covered with Ichor, rendering him immobile.

Mechanics

This Twisted has the ability to disguise as a Research Capsule based on his investigative nature of his Toon counterpart, waiting for any tricked player to grab it. When this succeeds, he inflicts two debuffs on that collector: Slow III and Confused III to reduce their escaping and extracting time before he could finally attack with his plasma beam eye, giving a heart's worth of damage to any Toon hit. As he is stationary, he has a 360-degree line of sight, waiting for a Toon to enter. If nobody is in his range for a few seconds (~18), he will sink back to his usual disguise.

Strategies

Like Twisted Razzle & Dazzle, he requires line of sight to attack the Toon. His attack is also easy to outrange, which will also cause him to lose interest. Twisted Rodger's fake Research Capsule can be easily distinguished from a real Research Capsule. If there are no tapes around the middle of the capsule, it is fake. If there are two tapes around the center, it is real. There can only be one fake Research Capsule per Twisted Rodger on the Floor. If the Player accidentally picks up Twisted Rodger's capsule while playing as Flutter, Flutter's Floaty Dash Ability isn't affected by the slowness Debuff, so it can be used to quickly escape. If you are not playing as her, you may be able to escape by sprinting to cover, as his rising animation takes some time before he can attack. If you accidentally pick his capsule up while distracting, an eject button will allow you to escape and continue distracting, however the other Twisteds may lose sight of you if used, especially slower ones like Shrimpo and Finn.

Twisted Rodger is not highlighted when using Vee/ Brightney Abilities. If you notice a Twisted is missing and there was one more at the previous floor, it's likely Twisted Rodger is on the Floor. While Pebble's ability however may detect his capsule as an item and lead confusion, there are two per each Twisted on the floor, meaning an odd number is not possible and also early way to detect him without a duplicated Rodger himself.

Trivia

• Twisted Rodger is one of the static Twisteds, the other being Twisted Razzle & Dazzle.
• Twisted Rodger's picking up capsule sounds like Twisteds Glisten's berserk sound
• Twisted Rodger's mimicry of a Research Capsule replicates his Toon counterpart's Passive Ability called Detective, which grants Players more Research, which applies to Research Capsules.
  • Somewhat ironically, though "collecting" Twisted Rodger does not grant Capsule Research (1%) it does grant Twisted Rodger encounter Research (5%), so picking up his Fake Capsules is more potent than collecting the real ones.
• Twisted Rodger is one of the only Non-Main Character Twisteds to inflict Debuffs to Players, the other being Twisted Finn.
• Twisted Rodger is the only Twisted that applies 2 debuffs at once.
• Twisted Rodger's sound cue originates from the Find The Path floor in the Roblox game, Regretevator.
• Twisted Rodger's model doesn't just pop into gameplay upon interacting with his Research capsule. Instead, the model is already loaded upon the floor being loaded, but just hidden under the floor unless Twisted Rodger's Research capsule is interacted with.
• Twisted Rodger is one of two Twisteds to have a walk cycle created specifically for Roleplaying Mode, the other being Twisted Razzle & Dazzle.
  • This is because he does not move in regular gameplay.
  • Twisted Rodger has a trail of Ichor when he moves in the Roleplay mode, as his lower half is coated in ichor.
