malaware is a dreamer miniboss of the kim kasino. it can be found patrollin' the kasino's labyrinths. it is a stronger counterpart of an pinkhurt, affected by the redmoon. it is first encountered in the kim kasino labyrinths as a random miniboss. apparently, malaware attempted to escape from several of kueen's guards, 'nd upon encounterin' it, a fight will ensue. whether defeated through violence or pacifism in the neutral/pacifist route, malaware will leave without issue. it can later be seen in the kasino's arcades, playin' a shovelware version of a game from kalligo's lappy. it seems to enjoy the game. it will also be one of those who help build the party's mecha against mecha kueen, servin' as a member to activate the poison status against mecha kueen, as it is a dream virus itself. 'fter the geek world event, malaware will be recruited in funky town, where its be with the pinkhurts, who will be curiously observin' it. on the bat route, malaware will be painted similarly to nekkoton 'nd brainwashed by her. 'fter a battle, malaware flees, and its current whereabouts are unknown. malaware is a big fan of shovelware games and 'lieves they deserve a second chance. it also shares several of the pinkhurts' tastes, such as their addiction to dream burgers 'nd their fondness for wordplay. despite this, the kim crew detests it, to the point of hirin' several guards to have it expelled from the casino. in fact, malaware has escaped multiple times 'cause its a modified pinkhurt. jowever, it knows that most pinkhurts deserve second chances, it just prefers to avoid them so it can play the games it enjoys, like shovelware. it is a dreamer with several digital windows where its body is vaguely visible, such as its head, arms, hips, legs, 'nd tail, for example, alon' with numbers zero 'nd one. these windows have a green line against a dark background. On the other hand, its body is mostly anthropomorphic, havin' an appearance similar to that of a pink horse, with several purple lines from its muzzle, arms, hips, and tail, for example. it also has a reddish crystal sphere on its tail, a mouth attached to its spiral eyes, elongated ears, 'nd long arms with two fingers on each. this form vaguely resembles a horse, so it is possible that malaware is a dreamification/imitation of a trojan horse on kalligo's laptop itself. its stats are 1689 HP, 10 attack, and 0 defence. its dojo fighterZ card says the followin': type of bein': dreamer. categories: bein' affected by the redmoon, weird animal, computer virus, malware, poisonous bein', trojan horse, miniboss. description: "a rather troublesome dreamer, despite not wantin' any troubles with anyone, it has a great fondness for shovelware games, RPGs, 'nd pixel art. it doesn't like being the center of attention; in fact, it tries to be as kind as possible. however, it often kicked out 'cause it's pinkhurt mutated by the redmoon. despite this, it remains quite calm; it's just that malaware is clumsy, like most of its species"
