The Inves (インベス, Inbesu) are a race of monsters that appear on the show Kamen Rider Gaim.

What Inves Are

The Inves are strange monsters that are thought to only exist within the newly popular Inves Games, which involves Lock Seeds. They are eventually revealed to be monstrous animals from a place called the Helheim Forest

The Inves are eventually revealed to be creatures that were transformed after devouring the fruit from Helheim's plants. Most of them are believed to be the indigenous life forms that existed in Helheim before the plants appeared there, but some of the Inves are actually former humans.

Inves Traits

The Inves are revealed to have a virus. When their victims are attacked, sometimes they will get infected and have plants from Helheim grow out of them.

The Inves Games

The Yggdrasill Corporation is a powerful entity that controls many aspects of Zawame City. Street dancing is a popular past time among youths in the city. There are free stages all around the city, consequently causing dance groups called Beat Riders to fight over them. This led way to the popular Inves Game, which allowed them to battle with Inves for control over the free stages.

The game is played by two opponents using Lock Seeds. The seeds open a zipper into another dimension and the Inves appear to fight. In the game form, the Inves are smaller and controlled by whomever holds the Lock Seed. If the player drops the seed, the Inves is freed from the Lock Seed's control.
