Hot Rash is one of the fifteen Hosts featured in HOURS.

Not to be confused with the enemy, Hot Rash.

Description

Hot Rash can be obtained by clicking/tapping the bottom left corner of the selection screen. His range varies, and he has 24 of the same upgrade, All of them being named "Hot Rash" with the R in "Rash" being another random letter. His true name is Hot Trash.

Appearance

Hot Rash wears a gray shirt and darker gray pants. His face glows like other hosts, and he has glowing sphere inside his chest. He wields a classic Roblox Linked Sword, which another lodged in his head (The Roblox hat "Stage Prop").

Playstyle

Since there are no other upgrade paths, Hot Rash's play style is always just about the same as his namesake enemy: Parrying obnoxiously in tandem with other attacks. Hot Gash (M1) is Hot Rash's main attack, a single overhead slash. It deals moderate damage with an above-average windup time and staggers enemies, and is safest to use after parrying. Hot Slash (M2) is a combo attack with about the same windup time as Hot Gash. It attacks with the sword 3 times, staggering on each hit. Hot Flash (SHIFT) is the same as the enemy's infamous parry move, deploying a forcefield after a short delay which prevents all damage and staggers melee attackers. It remains active longer than the parries of other hosts, and can be used twice in quick succession. If used during another attack, the shield will deploy immediately when the attack ends. A successful block with this skill will also shorten the cooldown of Hot Slash. Hot Kalash (Q) is Hot Rash's primary damage source. It gives Hot Rash an AK-47 with which he fires 30 projectiles with a light spread over a span of 10 seconds, staggering enemies with the first shot. While they deal very little damage, the overall damage output of the attack is quite high if all projectiles hit their target. Hot Rash only has one upgrade, known as Hot Cash (The first letter of "Cash" will be shown as any random letter other than O or U). While he begins the game rather weak, each upgrade increases his damage by 100%, allowing his offensive capabilities to eventually surpass his defensive potential.
