=== Dave === Expunged has a hateful and antagonistic relationship with [[Dave]], her unwitting creator. In the [[Terminal|terminal]] command ''open power'', she outright states that she hates him for throwing away the power he could've had (interestingly using they/them to refer to Dave). This "heap of unwanted power" is what created Expunged.[https://github.com/FuseIsHere813/VsDave-3.0/blob/8dd98b48f95d123b8a4723e0149f09eb16c5c8c3/source/TerminalState.hx#L282] This is referencing the events of other logs - after an unspecified incident with Tristan winding up in the Void[https://github.com/FuseIsHere813/VsDave-3.0/blob/8dd98b48f95d123b8a4723e0149f09eb16c5c8c3/source/TerminalState.hx#L258], Dave created the P.R.A.E.M. to remove his ''unwanted'' magic so that it would not cause further harm to others. Expunged seems to believe that Dave could've become much more powerful had he not done this, and loathes him for it, even though it is the reason she exists. She either doesn't know or is unwilling to understand that Dave removed his power so as to not endanger Tristan again; if she does know about this, she may see it as a trivial reason to give up the pursuit of power. When a Twitter user figured out that Dave separated his power, Expunged sarcastically called it his tragic backstory[https://x.com/OfficialMTM101/status/1577811107602784256?s=20] before backpedalling that "it's not really tragic, just pathetic"[https://x.com/OfficialMTM101/status/1577811132852510720?s=20], as she'll never understand why anyone would give up any amount of power.[https://x.com/OfficialMTM101/status/1577811169011675137?s=20] She bears additional resentment against him for refusing to and lying about creating '''[[Minor Characters#Blade|Blade]]''', who she similarly saw as having great potential for power. Other terminal commands consistently describe her as a reflection of Dave, one as "always wrong"[https://github.com/BemboLikePizza/VsDave/blob/63bdbb6ee51d73d224d926b3eee8f302168718e7/source/TerminalState.hx#L247] and another as "broken"[https://github.com/BemboLikePizza/VsDave/blob/63bdbb6ee51d73d224d926b3eee8f302168718e7/source/TerminalState.hx#L255]. Similarly in BIRTHDAY, his Proto form is described as ''"[looking] almost like [Tristan's] dad but it was all wrong"''.[https://docs.google.com/document/d/1NpzvRAwsQCIWQEJgOw07Opt1T2h2HiCg_3_pDc6njho/edit] These suggest Expunged's appearance is a literal and figurative warped reflection of Dave's, though it may also be implying that Expunged's personality is reflecting Dave as well. This interpretation has tentative support in '''Insane Dave''', a hypothetical and manic-looking version of Dave that never used the P.R.A.E.M. on himself, going "down the wrong path" as a result.[https://x.com/rappareplol/status/1702681772805218773?s=20] This could imply that Dave's potential for malice and power-hungriness was removed alongside his power via the P.R.A.E.M. and became part of Expunged. Indeed, it's left ambiguous what exactly Dave's motivations were for initially researching his powers - he only pivoted to remove them with the P.R.A.E.M. after it endangered Tristan. It could be speculated that he initially began his research, whether overtly or subconsciously, out of a desire for power, which could explain his willingness to endure great pain for his studies[https://github.com/BemboLikePizza/VsDave/blob/63bdbb6ee51d73d224d926b3eee8f302168718e7/source/TerminalState.hx#L225] - or if it didn't begin with this motivation, then it could've become driven by power later in time had he pursued his research further and never removed his powers.
