Brief

And the short one – represented by the 11th letter of the Russian alphabet (Й). He has salmon-colored skin, thick arms and legs, which are lighter in color, and oval eyes with thin, black, rectangular pupils. He also has dark maroon, tactile blush in the form of two straight mustaches. A superscript symbol, called a "beret," hovers above his head.

Brief also has a very strange personality. This can be discerned from his behavior: staring into space, flamboyant facial expressions and gestures (seen in I.N.M.T. 4 during the exclusion), etc. He can sometimes mock subjects if they complain or make hurtful comments about him. He is very vindictive and easily angered. He is merciless towards most subjects and always achieves his desired goal. He was the one who came up with the entire "Trial of a Million Thousand" show, and apparently not with good intentions. Brief often treats subjects like ignorant children. He easily intimidates or confuses them. He calls subjects "inferior," "specimens," and "stuffed animals" and does not tolerate them touching him. He loves to watch subjects moan and suffer, never missing a chance to drive them to hysteria or even faint. For some reason, Short repeatedly bullied Knife the most. He constantly emphasized that he respected neither the subjects, nor their opinions or desires. He thought nothing of killing test subjects en masse.

He demands that all subjects always follow his rules. Even Yoshka couldn't allow subjects to break any rules or refuse prizes, knowing that Kratkiy wouldn't like it. Apparently, Kratkiy is resourceful and creative in his challenges. Apparently, he values ​​precision and is fair to his subject show: in I.N.M.T. 7, after discovering that Pshika's votes were manipulated, he reset them.

And Shorty protects Yoshka and pays special attention to him. He even threatened the objects with death if they so much as laid a finger on him. He respects and praises the work of his gardeners. However, he demands that the work be done well and accurately, otherwise punishment will follow. This can be seen in the example of the Evil Letter Sh, whom Shorty simply threw into the sky for failing to fulfill his duty.

According to Zara in "WHAT'S ABOUT INMT?", Short was always the most reserved of the other Symbolars, and after the show began, he almost completely disappeared from the alphabet. Most likely, Y dislikes the other Symbolars, with a few exceptions. Chepik was even surprised that Short called the Bvtobus (public transportation) in episode 8, since Short usually walks.

Despite all his negative qualities, the letter's manic tendencies can still crack when it threatens the show itself. To save him from endless deaths and the absolute disobedience of the test subjects, Short decides to give the host position to his assistant. He was deeply upset by the objects' ultimatum against him, though he masked his bitterness with anger and resentment. However, already on the Bvtobus, the symbolar was only very pensive and depressed.

It is possible that I Kratkiy observed the lives of 13 objects before he showed up. Otherwise, it is impossible to explain the fact that he knew the names and habits of the objects in advance.
From the reboot of I.N.M.T. 1, we can conclude that in fact, Kratkiy himself deliberately set everything up in such a way that the show began as a random coincidence of events.
There is a theory that Short can control the consciousness of objects, since in the reboot of I.N.M.T. 1 you can see that at first Zamazych reacted rather negatively to the iron cabinet with the magazine, but then he focused all his attention on the magazine.
Zach and the I.N.M.T. members call Short Pink, even though it is close to Red.[2]
The short one, according to him, is the best letter of the Russian alphabet.
And Brief is one of two Symbolars with rectangular pupils (the second is Shchisch).
And Brief is the only symbol with a double name, which, moreover, is almost indistinguishable from the original name of the letter.
Apparently, Short can create a working device even from completely unsuitable materials, since he was able to create a metal receiver from paper and glue, which was also connected to a timesheet (which in turn was made of metal).
Short doesn't come up with the challenges for the participants alone. The Supreme Gardener helps him with this.
And Short can fly, and at very high speed.
Short can distort his voice in interesting ways, making it more creepy.
And Short for some reason prepares food for the objects, which is often connected with plants and their parts that are not suitable for food. It is unknown what and whether Short eats at all.
According to Zamazych, Kratkiy was emitting a "strange smell of some kind of metal."
There is a suggestion that I Kratkiy actually smells like blood, since metal and blood have a similar smell due to the iron content in the blood serum.
There is also a possibility that I. Kratkiy smells like iodine, which also resembles metallic due to its chemical properties.

Y can change the bodies and voices of objects. He can also resurrect objects and turn them into the objects they are, thereby eliminating them from the show.
In I.N.M.T. 4, 5 and 8 it was shown that Short, like Yoshka, resurrects objects with a magic wand, but in the remaining episodes he carries out all the aforementioned actions with his own hands, or by snapping his fingers.
Judging by Kratkiy's note on the climbing pick from I.N.M.T. 5, he is not very knowledgeable about the anatomy of objects (he did not know if they had claws).

However, he does have a book on Objectology, with a close-up of the hands of objects on the cover. Perhaps Shorty hasn't fully mastered this book.
Short has his own greenhouse with gardeners, suggesting he's quite influential.
The brief can be found in the BFT 5 files.
In one of the billboards on Zak's second channel, where Kratkiy died of asthma, his gravestone stated that his year of birth was 1735[3]. If this is to be believed, then Kratkiy is currently 291 years old.
It is interesting that 1735 is the official year of the adoption of the letter “y” into the Russian alphabet[4].
This joke was repeated in INMT 8 bloopers, but there, on Kratkiy's grave, the year of birth is missing, and in its place there is a small chip, as if someone deliberately removed the date from the stone.
Throughout the episodes, I.N.M.T. and Kratkiy changed stylistically very often.
And Brief can mimic various objects or creatures (transforming into a printer in I.N.M.T. 7, as well as in VKontakte and in Formych R-301), as well as materialize things.

Some laws of physics, such as inertia, seem to not apply to Kratkiy.
Apparently, Short does not feel pain.
And Brief can change the length and number of his limbs.
Kratkiy's physical strength is enough to crush an object to death with one hand.

And Brief appeared in BFT as a Square Scary Letter.
In I.N.M.T. 7, at the moment when Shorty sneaks up on Butylych, he looked quite creepy: his body became completely dark (the colors of the line), the outlines of parts of his face became white, his eyes became shaped like human ones, and behind Shorty himself appeared what looked like splashes of blood.
And Kratkiy often breaks the fourth wall, addressing the audience.
And Shorty sometimes stumbles when delivering his lines, and then says them again. This is a joke from Zach, as Shorty's voice actor sometimes has such quirks.
And Brief transforms objects into things to the music of Pressure Cooker - Pegboard Nerds.
And Shorty personally killed 11 objects and transformed 7 objects into objects. He brought 1 object out of the object state and resurrected 13 objects (not counting the fact that some of them were resurrected multiple times).
And Brief almost never blinks.
And Kratkiy is the first character to directly break the fourth wall. The second is Lshka.
Saying goodbye, Short says: "See you later!"
In the video "WHEN IS INMT 7?!", Kratkiy had a "Japanese" name - Burifu.
Previously, Kratkiy's character was very similar to the Four from the English-language object show "Battle for Dream Island".
According to I.N.M.T. 8, the magic of the Brief, like all symbolars, has its own set limit, or its excessive use can deplete vital forces.
The stars that appear when Kratkiy winks are not a simple effect, i.e. they are completely real and explode upon contact with his mustache.
In the announcement for I.N.M.T. 8, I Kratkiy repeatedly expressed his hatred and disdain for the episode. The reason became clear after the episode aired—the Objects ousted him as host.
In this poster, Kratkiy already had bags under his eyes. This suggests the announcement was recorded after the events of episode eight.
