==Official League Records==

On , Day 48, Gulp joined the Sunbeams' lineup in exchange for Phineas Wormthrice at Lower Moab Scenic Overlook Field via the .
On , Day 72, Gulp retreated to the Sunbeams' Shadows in exchange for Borg Ruiz due to Night.
==Personal Life==
Born during the Grand Siesta, Guy Gulp was brought into a world where the modern incarnation of Internet League Blaseball was a simple fact of life. grew up local to the Hellmouth with three siblings and after receiving a misprinted TLOPPs card from his older sister, a love for Blaseball and the home team. Though this was unusual for Hellmouth residents, love for the splort and the Sunbeams has been unwavering, and even lead to an extensive collection of unique and personally-valued TLOPPs cards.
As neared adulthood, in a sudden position of responsibility, left to take care of two younger siblings after the eldest was no longer in the picture. For reasons potentially unrelated, would soon find employed at the local 7-Helleven. This is where remain until recruitment to the Hellmouth Sunbeam, as well as after it, and likely during it.
's personality has been described most succinctly by those around as "I just work here." Often interpreted as a reflection of casual demeanor and intention to do what's required of and little else.
That said, though can come across as aloof, those close to seem to have shared several moments of warmth and connection with , only sometimes delivered in the same matter-of-fact way as a purchase total. Still, on occasion, you can find turning off hearing aid to avoid unwanted conversation.
==Adaptation==
As a lifelong Hellmouth resident, has doubtlessly undergone an Adaptation of sorts, though it's suitably both 'incredibly unique' and 'alarmingly dull' at once. This Adaptation has a wide array of infrequent side-effects, though the single consistent feature seems to be 's name having become near-completely imperceptible to anyone besides . That being 'near-completely' in the most literal sense, as it's simply by virtue of first and last initial seeming to be universally understood.
Though this quirk leads to being called a variety of names instead of , such as , or , by both fans and teammates alike, it's largely proved inoffensive in day-to-day life — outside of occasional struggles with bureaucracy.
In rare cases, has been observed to be… well, difficult to observe. to fade from conscious perception as casually as name does, though to have little to no control over when this occurs, what's overlooked, or to what extent.
==Employment at 7-Helleven==
For reasons not fully understood by fellow Hellmouth natives, 's status as a provider for siblings necessitated employment in mind. Ever since, been employed at the local 7-Helleven, working a 24 Hour Shift, 7 Days of the Week. seem particularly bothered by these hours, showing up to each shift and somehow covering conspicuously and consistently absent coworker’s shifts as well.
This shouldn't be mistaken for too intense a work ethic, however. ’s performance at 7-Helleven can be described as a shockingly effective bare minimum. employer doesn’t seem to mind, as each and every day you can find behind the counter at 7-Helleven.
 insists that since joining the Hellmouth Sunbeams that 'Blase breaks', but many claim to have seen working the register even during active games.
==Plug Yug and/or Yug PlugValued 7-Helleven Employee [NAME HERE], you may or may not have come into possession of a very special piece of company equipment. Try to contain your excitement as you find yourself now bonded to potentially-existent extra-dimensional immateria, of some number and form. It's probably best not to understand, which should present a fun and exciting opportunity for you to grow and hone your skills as part of our family!==
, predictably struggling to cope with the added working hours of his 24/7 Shift, once crept into the backroom late at night to rest. Leaning back, and accidentally toppling over a pile of conspicuously-stacked crates, a visibly-locked box was revealed, looking somehow both dilapidated, worn, and freshly sealed.
After fumbling with it half-heartedly for a few moments out of a natural curiosity, a satisfying snap rang through 's hearing aid with a crackle of static, and ze was suddenly washed over with disparate sensations. Dry, rough sensations rolling from his fingertips to his shoulders, intense pressure in small areas all over them, followed by something shocking, but not as unpleasant. Viscous fluid flowed between stones, the mixture of two eventually settling over 's arms in a larger simulacra of their shape.
These arms, according to an inconsistently-written manual contained in the box, consisted of two dubiously-sentient entities. Silent beings each comprised entirely of an element. One, Plug Yug, was formed by the more traditional "Stone." However, its counterpart, Yug Plug, was of "Slime." They seemed to function harmoniously, quietly working together to form new shapes and move around to assist with his work, usually as an extra pair of hands or two.
Interestingly, they're most often only remarked upon or seen by others while is at work. Which, is, when not playing Blaseball. On the field however, the occasional extra-dimensional individual or one with interests in such matters, such as Son Jensen, may be able to perceive and interact with them more frequently.
==Career with the Hellmouth Sunbeams==
After the Season 22 Playoffs, would get chance at a childhood dream of playing for the Hellmouth Sunbeams, being recruited to the team's Shadows. It was impossible to know how long one would spend in the Shadows upon entering. Some, on both the Sunbeams roster and elsewhere, would go years upon years without being called up to active play. However, it would only be one Season before Phineas Wormthrice, seemingly eager to know what the new toy did, would fling emself through the newly-Ratified Voicemail in exchange for .
It wasn't long before established personality on the field, being swept away Elsewhere for the first time and quickly returning later that same game, seemingly unphased and in good, dry humor about the whole affair. In spite of appearing largely nonplussed about new career, insists on excitement to be here and love of everything about the splort, even its more dangerous or contentious aspects. that Blaseball "captures the spirit of Hellmouth,"[Who?] and that home of Hellmouth "captures the spirit of Blaseball."[Where?] This passion seems to have translated into a genuine aptitude for the splort, with analysts claiming as a stand-out among Playoff recruits.
Initially, 's appearance on the team caused veteran Sunbeams to grapple with the long-reaching hands of time and just how long it's been since they'd all started playing, but after the initial shock it wasn't difficult for to find place on the team. Members of the team who have seen a lot of onboarding, particularly Nagomi Nava, appreciates disposition and enthusiastic — but respectful — attitude toward the game, while Sigmund Castillo seem to share a unique, nearly-unspoken connection.
's new bonds were put to the test during a nail-biting 16-Inning Game against the Ohio Worms under the added pressure of an Eclipse hanging overhead. Batter after batter would step up to the mound without scoring, but finally the game ended with the sound of 's bat cracking a 3-Run Homer ringing throughout the Solarium, followed by an unintelligible cacophony of names starting with the letter G.
Under Night weather, after the Reader-influenced Sunbeams charged and scattered the Boss, clocked out of shift in the line-up for Borg Ruiz, who swiped a card from TLOPPs collection on the way in for divination purposes.
==A Card from Gulp's TLOPPs Collection==
<choose uncached="">
<option>This well-worn Discipline-era Walton Sports card has been predictably and humorously misprinted as "Walton Splorts." Curiously, in addition to the misprinted name, for some reason the blaseball he's holding doesn't appear to be regulation, despite looking very similar to the one seen in properly-printed copies of the card.</option>
<option>It seems like this Alexander Horne card is a special exclusive Season 6 card commemorating Horne's feedback to San Francisco. The card seems to still highlight Horne's hellish origins and earliest set of armor on the team. Horne gifted this to Gulp during a Hellmouth Sunbeams team family reunion after Gulp complimented baking.</option>
<option>Gulp's own strange existence with reality and recognizability may be the reason as to why Gulp is the proud owner of a Wyatt Dovenpart tlopps card that seemingly is unable to interact with reality whatsoever. Not only does the name flicker wildly, shifting through various names of unknown players, but also it often mistakenly shows Dovenpart as a Charleston Shoe Thief or a Boston Flower. When the card does show completely correctly there is a minor discoloration on Dovenpart's shirt making the purple a bit darker than it actually is.</option>
<option>Foil Gun Bong</option>
<option>Gulp is the lucky owner of a misprinted Season 20 Jessica Telephone Dallas Steaks card. The card itself is seemingly one of the newer editions to Gulp's collection and thus is in great condition. However, there seems to be a typo on Telephone's name listing her as "Jassica Telephone." The player herself has actually heard from multiple sources about this not uncommon misprint, to which she is reported responding to simply saying "Nice."</option>
<option>When traveling for an away game versus the Tokyo Lift Gulp happened upon a clearly abandoned, but highly interesting Mags Banananana Tlopps card in The Gym. The Card states that it's Tlopps official, but looks nothing like any produced before. It also chooses to depict the woman as a mlinion character instead. Despite it being torn down the side Gulp had done all ze can to restore the strange card to its former glory, whatever that may be.</option></choose>
==Trivia==
*Gulp has a pet amphibian, though much like its owner's name, no one seems to be able to quite recall what species it is, and give conflicting reports on the subject.
*Nobody is certain where Gulp got often worn green glasses, but Sunbeams fashion fans are quick to notice the way in which the plastic realistically drips from the frames. It even is realistically slippery and Gulp often has to realistically clean it up!
*Gulp has been implicated in multiple potential romantic entanglements, but seems to maintain that none of them are formal relationships and that "just focused on work right now."
*As siblings begun to age out of care and static due to Blaseball career, Gulp has recently chosen to move into the basement of a house with some of fellow "newbies,"See: Phineas Wormthrice, Borg Ruiz, and Tot Best. possibly as a means of separating from this baggage.
*Reports have proven that Gulp is quite a noted fan of tie-dye shirts. Upon recruitment to the team, Hahn Fox has been quoted saying, "One of the first things asked me is whether or not wear tie-dye shirts on the field. I was a bit confused, but so sad and I didn't mind. I don't think boss lets wear what , but we've set such a precedent, who am I to stop ." Though Gulp does often still play in uniform, fans are often excited to see on a "Guy Tie-Dye Day."
