__TOC__
== History ==
Clams, the adult embodiment of the term "theater kid", joined the server from an invite directly from Bunny after being pestered over tiktok. They were rather "late" to join, though they had been expected to join much sooner. Due to their tardiness, the "Internet Explorer" rank on the discord server was born just to be given to them, in reference to how fucking slow the Internet Explorer browser happens to be.
When they joined the actual minecraft server in 2022, they set out on a pursuit of nothing specific- but eventually:
* Came to be the founder of the underground city Meadowpool
* Became the proud owner of The Outskirts Frog Estate (which contains no frogs).
* Authored over 100 death quotes and Advice Bot statements.
* Created The Maze.
* Became the lead Skeleton Horse "Farmer".
== ITS LOOKING DIRECTLY AT ME!!! ==
The Outskirts Frog Estate is the first thing that most people warping to the outpost lay their eyes on when exiting the outskirts warp pad. It was, for a long time, sitting unfinished directly by the warp, until Dyatlov challenged Clams to finish the building in under two hours, lest the building "get consumed". 
Clams ended up building what began to look like a wizard tower- and by the end of the second hour, the building had eyes, a window that resembled a mouth, and a roof that resembles a hat.
== Habits ==
Sometimes people act so unpredictably that it becomes predictable, and Clams is a brilliant example of this. Clams is one of the most identifiable characters of Rhapsody, leading the server owner to believe that if they changed both their name and profile photo, they would still be able to identify them easily based on the way they act. Some of their behaviors include:
* Sending voice memos containing copious amounts of information regarding every Barbie Movie.
* Pitching ridiculous ideas, similar to the way Kramer from Seinfeld does.
* Showing off their incredible DND characters. (And commissions they have made in regards to them.)
* Making memes and hilarious jokes about Dyatlov's Nuss bar, Klondike.
* Trying to guess Dyatlov's real age.
* Showing off their ridiculously swag outfits in the #selfies channel.
* Talking about all the epic concerts they get to go to.
* Monologuing as if they're some 1700's village mayor. (Example: their first "introduction" on the discord server.)
* Sending Dyatlov the most absurd tiktoks they can conjure from their own for-you-page.
* Frequently manages the consequences of a mysterious "Bus Curse" which entails that they cannot have a single normal bus trip, or any regular interactions while waiting for, boarding, on board, or leaving a public transportation bus.
* Spending "too much time" on the ponytown site.
== Musehood ==
Clams' musehood is rooted in their theatrical, spontaneous, and comedic personality that invokes positive social interaction even in Rhapsody's quietest, most seldom speaking members. According to the server owner, Clams has an attitude that inspires others, alongside their multiple other talents.
"Not to boost their god complex, but they really do have charisma coming from every angle. They emit the kind of positivity that just sticks to you like white cat fur sticks to black clothes. No matter what you do, that positivity shines on you, even if you haven't had an interaction with them for a whole month. I carry the cool things they say everywhere I go. All it takes is one sentence from Clams, and they brighten my entire day or night, no matter what it happens to be. That's the sort of positive association I have with them." -Dyatlov on why Clams holds the muse title.
