Brsph

Brsph is an active player on True Vanilla. He first discovered the server in the fall of 2020 while it was still under the server's creator, Penguin4215. He hopes to be considered an OG player by talking a lot in chat and in the TVE Discord. 
== Player History ==
=== First Tour ===
The first time playing primarily consisted of meandering around spawn and getting basic iron gear, only playing every so often when the queue for Purity Vanilla was too long. His first base was a small little outpost off the side of a highway called Cerro Gorditto after the California boom town of a similar name. Those base coords have since been lostI don't where the coords are. -Brsph. Most of the time spent in Cerro Gorditto was played in vanille before he realized he could give hacks a shot, so one day he downloaded Aristois and took full advantage of flight hacks to try to explore old base coords. However, this exploration was short-lived and he would leave the server for an extended period in December 2020Based on a screenshot I have of when I was trying a vanilla mining strat in December 2020. -Brsph.
=== Second Tour ===
In February 2021, news broke of Penguin wanting to give up the server due to an alleged DDOS attack by player SpoonI heard it in the associated Discords. -Brsph. Brsph followed the news and logged in at the relaunch by new server owner sleepylessons on February 15, 2021.
Upon logging on, he spawned in with several players who were trapped by 4 walls of still flowing lavacast. The server was on a temp map and was still being set up. The limited space they had was all ungriefable - you couldn't break the blocks like when you're in adventure mode. However, flying in the sky was one player, Bennooo. Brsph believed this player was an alt for the admin while he conducted tests, and so praised and simped for Bennooo from the lava prison. 
Attempts to flee in vanilla failed, but Brsph tried playing with hacks and was able to fly out of the pit. The first time Bennooo attacked and killed Brsph, but the second time Brsph was allowed to leave. Brsph ventured into the area immediately surrounding the lavacast and found that you could break blocks just like normal survival mode. And so he continued to praise Bennooo while setting up early game until the server closed again. Others had joined in their adulation of Bennooo, but whether the worship stemmed from sincerity or confusion is not known.
When the server returned, it was back on the main map. Brsph quickly sought out Bennooo and other believers at spawn. Together they geared up despite Bennooo learning about how they confused his identity. Yet he treated them generously and provided netherite and diamonds. Inspired graffitti was left and a shrine established to commemorate the inception of a new religion.
An abandoned farm was chosen as the site for the First Temple of Bennooo near spawn. Started by Rickety, Brsph arrived and contributed a shed for item storage and new walls made out of lavacasts. He would be joined by minecraftnerd19 and Necro, the former was new to the server and the latter was friends with Bennooo. A Discord server was started that remains open as of September 10, 2021, though it is inactive. The informal group of the Bennooo Church is currently inactive.
This was the main base that Brsph would log into sporadically during this time, winding down probably by the end of February 2021.
=== Third Tour ===
On June 27, 2021 sleepylessons announced that he would be shutting down his main server, NetherAnarchy, due being doxxed and receiving threats against his family. The following day he announced that he was going to give up TVE as well and was looking for a suitable candidate to transfer the server to. At this time, Brsph got interested again because the server was over a year old and it was confirmed by sleepy that the server would simply be taken offline if a new owner was not available
Sleepylessons confirmed he would just take the server offline if no one trustworthy stepped up to run it.. This was in the midst of the Era of Silence as well.
Feeling increased FOMO and weighing the loss of a server with so much history and investment where upstarts dreamed of a legacy, Brsph inserted himself into the community and actively discussed how the server should be transferred. He also started playing the server he was giving so many opinions about because if there was not an active playerbase then it would be less worth it for a new admin to take over.
==== Scandinavian Abode ====
Brsph's first project in this season of play was a charming build relatively close to spawn called Scandinavian Abode. The goal was to challenge himself to build a nice looking survival base in a short amount of time. He built it close to spawn so that someone would eventually find it, in keeping with a base a built earlier in the year on a different server, Castle Esperanza.
While building he started chatting with one of the few players who logged on at the time, Jazzbears. Since Brsph had no gear at the time and the purpose of this house was to run into new people, he invited Jazzbears to the build site to see if he'd like to join. Jazzbears came bearing gifts with the most valuable being an elytra. He expectedly showed apprehension at building so close to spawn and recommended going further out, so it was agreed that he would go on ahead while Brsph finished the house. In a matter of hours the build was done and Brsph started flying to the new coords. The build was finished on July 11, 2021.
==== Point Ramone ====
Starting on July 14, 2021, this new base would be the real deal place for Brsph for finally gear up properly. Up to this point, the wealthiest Brsph had been was using unenchanted netherite armor and tools. Brsph was the main builder of the base, but Jazzbears helped with touches here and there, trapping zombie villagers, and providing important resources such as an enchanting setup.
Further details of this base are top sneaky since it is currently inhabited. Feel free to join Brsph if you find the base. If you decide to grief, he understands.
==== Events ====
During this time, Brsph has participated in a few events including:
* 1st Spawn Party by EficaciousMig47 and Red__ICE
* 2nd Spawn Party by EficaciousMig47 and Red__ICE
* Spawn Base Hunting event by EficaciousMig47
