Overview[1]
Intern is the free starting class. Its documented perk increases starting sanity, making it a useful baseline for comparing other roles.
Equipping this class at level 1 will grant the player 10 bonus Sanity, starting them of with 71% sanity instead of 61%. At level 2 and 3, the bonus sanity is increased to 15 and 20, respectively. Acting as a starter class, the Intern is decent for beginners, as the extra health allows them a bit more time to learn the game. The bonus sanity also means that Intern players can have more Coffee during the run more often, at least in the early game.

Appearance
The Intern is a rabbit-like creature with upturned ears. It wears a white jacket hoodie/coveralls with grey pockets, a zipper and black drawstrings, and plain white pants. Their face features small, black dots as eyes, and a large, uncanny smile. They are light orange in the classes shop and by default, but varies in color once in a shift. When playing with other users, Intern can appear green, blue, or pink.
Known Bugs
Intern can sometimes appear faceless in-game.
Trivia
Prior to the June 19th, 2026 update, no matter which class a player had equipped, their in-game model would always default to the Intern during a shift. Two of the Discord stickers featuring Intern reference different media. The first one references the "Good Answer, Nephew" meme. The second one references the IShowSpeed "Please Speed, I need this" meme. The Intern is the only class with multiple color variants, which was added to make it easier for players to tell each other apart during a shift. It is currently unknown if this idea will also be implemented to other classes if more than one person has the same class in a shift. The Intern has an unusual face differing from any of the other characters and does not have any of the possible animal faces. Intern was one of the only characters that could jumpscare the player as a creepy hollow-eyed version of it, but it was only in the now removed "Jumpscare All" gamepass. The Intern was the only Class that didn't get remodeled on the July 10th update.
