Kozy

Vladimir Liam Lestat Runescape Packard better known as Vladimir Packard or simply by his online alias, Kozy, has made content on YouTube since May of 2011.
== YouTube Career ==
However, in 2017, he grew traction when he regularly uploaded ultra-modded Skyrim videos to the channel Quack E, usually containing sexually explicit and/or ridiculous modifications added to the game. 
He had deleted the channel and made a new one, named Kozy, where he would gain traction uploading video game analyses after getting a shoutouthttps://x.com/UberDanger/status/1391538261017911299 from UberDanger.
== Personality ==
Kozy's personality is one bent on mischief. He has garnished the title Goblin Prince from his viewers for consistently twisting scenarios into chaos. Most of the time, he's pulling simple tricks on his friends in games or on Discord, but other times, he has been shown to troll entire raid teams and fanbases.
On the other hand, despite his love for calamity and mischief, he adores cute aesthetics. He often will dress himself in pastel colors, cover his works with flowers, and usually associates with the color pink. He bleaches his hair white because of "Unreasonably difficult to explain lore," and often times criticizes games based solely on their fashion and/or aesthetic potential.
== Series ==
Kozy has made a number of characters, series, and stories, surrounding different topics, games, and other forms of media, all of which are character driven and often hold a deeper or more personal meaning to the storylines he portrays.
Flowerstain
The Enigmatic Adventure of Flowerstain is a series that followed the story of the titular Flowerstain, a goblin rogue who walked the crossroads of a life of chaos and a life of peace, which acted as a means to which Kozy could entertain the viewer whilst reviewing the game World of Warcraft and document its downfall, which all culminated in a 4th wall break and massive finale after 2 years of development and 5 lengthy episodes.
Sir Swampwater 
Sir Swampwater follows a very over the top blue knight with no talent with a blade and the voice of a strangled pigeon, as he traverses the lands of From Software games such as Dark Souls III and Elden Ring in lengthy narrative driven video essays that review the games with storytelling as its major component. Sir Swampwater as a character is a nearly decade year old inside joke from Kozy and his friend Dragon Fruit. The character existed long before the series had, and will continue to exist and appear in any upcoming souls-like or From Software titles. 
The seemingly final part of the series came with the upload of a 4 hour behemoth https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7z0Hcf_4c9Q which not only gave insight to Kozy's personal story with abuse and addiction, but also gave closure to his sentiments on the Souls franchise, as well as a proper conclusion the storyline of Sir Swampwater. 
Femboy Reviews 
Femboy Reviews is a sub-series which is pretty self describable. Dressed as Astolfo from Fate/Apocrypha,https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fate/Apocrypha Kozy satirizes the genre of reactionary/review driven videos on YouTube, often preferring to tell a story while he slips in ironic criticisms and out of nowhere deep dives into psychology or philosophy. It's jarring and chaotic, structureless, and usually ends with no solid verdict on the game being reviewed. 
Kosher the Kingslayer 
Kosher the Kingslayer is a masterful Classic World of Warcraft trilogy that follows an undead wizard is given a second chance at a childhood dream, and pursues it at all costs against a ticking clock. It is seen as Kozy's most prestigious work, as it tackles the monumental story that spans over half a year in which Kozy set out to chase his childhood dream of slaying the Lich King in World of Warcraft before Cataclysm Classic released, which was seen as nearly impossible. A riveting story jam packed with betrayal, drama, a cyber cartel, and the impossible goal that makes it all worth it. 
"Water the smaller seeds and believe me when I say you'll be bewildered by the flowers that bloom." Kozy ends the trilogy with this statement, encapsulating the series into a neat bow.

== Personal Life ==
Kozy was born on the Autism spectrumHe has stated many times, such as in his video Why Runescape is so Good and Femboy Reviews Lightfall that he has been diagnosed with Autism.

With nowhere safe to run to, he'd find solitude in an abandoned city, seen to the right. He was known as The Boy with the White HairNot only was the name used in Dark Souls Saved My Life, but it is also the username of the Instagram account Kozy used to document his time whilst homeless.
