Christian Potter

Christian Potter is one of the greatest and most influential Blokus Grandmasters of all time
== Early Life ==
Very little is known about Christian Potters early life and career, however he has purported that he grew up in a region which is now modern-day Congo, in a small village of less than a few thousand people.
== Career ==
Christian Potter has had one of the longest careers in Blokus history.
=== Before Blokus ===
Christian Potter has stated that, prior to the invention of Blokus, throughout his teens and twenties, he was a carpenter, primarily building furniture and wooden figurines and toys. However, in ~8 MB he learned about the game of Blokus from a European traveler.
=== After Blokus ===
Immediately after learning about Blokus, Christian was obsessed. He disappeared into his house for months at a time, learning as much as possible about Blokus and discovering and experimenting with various techniques . After roughly a decade of being almost completely sealed off from society, he emerged with a completely brand new and original technique: "The Lucky Charm". He did not use this technique in public, until his Blokus debut in the first World Block , where his technique awed the crowd so much that it caused a rampage which killed over 10,000 people, and he won the competition.
After winning his first tournament, Christian Potter was inducted into the Blokus Cabal due to his skill. Christian slowly rose up the ranks over the course of the next few decades, slowly playing a more integral role in the Blokus Cabal's daily workings. This eventually culminated in him starting a coup, killing the then-leader of the Blokus Cabal, and installing himself as the leader of the organization, making him the most powerful Blokus grandmaster in the world.
Once he became the leader of the Blokus Cabal, Christian Potter distanced himself from the day-to-day workings of the Cabal, instead having his lieutenants manage virtually every aspect of the Cabal. He continued this practice until the eventual destruction of the Cabal. Most scholars agree that the only reason why Christian Potter survived the Blokus Dark Ages was because of how separated he was from the game by that point.
=== The Dark Ages ===
Very little confirmed information exists during this time period, and there is much debate amongst scholars as to what actualy happened. This is exacerbated by the fact that none of the surviving grandmasters (including Christian Potter) willingly provide accounts of their experiences during this era. According to eyewitnesses, Christian Potter lay low in secluded villages, going by various different aliases and identities.
