One of Masked's recent skins

mask3dwasst0len (previously mask3d\_\_, \_kihiro\_, \_teruteru\_), better known as Masked or Mask, is a well-known player of SootMC during the 1.15-1.17 versions of the server. He is easily recognizable by the orange target mask present on his skin, as well as a pair of aqua axolotl gills and a tail. Generally known for being an overall menace and causing problems for different members of the server, most notably boo2thefool.

## Pre-1.17

Masked has been active on the server since the later days of 1.14, but became known during mid-1.15 for his mob head museum, as well as his array of unusual pets, including, but not limited to: Tax Evasion the Spider, bizly pequeno the Endermite, Venonoso the Pufferfish, and an unnamed Wither. During 1.16, he ran Shop28, which boasted the lowest consistent prices on SootMC for rare items, most noteably elytra at only 18.5k each with full enchantments. Attached to Shop28, but closed from the public, was Club28, where Masked had a collection of every music disc (including recently released Pigstep), and a pet slime named Jameson. A very limited number of SootMC players were invited, and the list of invited players has been lost.

1.16 was also the season where Masked officially joined Wilbark, led by adriom\_, for the first time. He created some of its most notable builds, including the giant chess set, the diagonal bridge, and the underground elytra racecourse (where he held the record time at the end of the season with 27.86 seconds). Masked was also known for his personal home at the world border where he constructed a massive bridge connecting two islands, one holding his main home where many gifts and his elytra collection resided, and the other holding the bee dome and turtle pond.

He was also known for his generosity at Natura, a huge public farm that had been created by a single player. He regularly appeared to replant any trampled or missing crops, breed the animals, and drop off spare food in the donation chests. He was the only player to receive a special 'recommendation pumpkin' placed in an item frame beside the Natura farmer villager.

He was present for the explosive finale of the season, and was seen at Natura, Wilbark, and his personal home.

## 1.17

Masked was present during the 1.17 Early Access, and was a member of 'The Summoning Ritual' when the server opened to all players. He was also allied with the winners for the 1.17 race to the dragon egg, and is one of the few players with a legitimate 'Next Generation' achievement on the 1.17 SootMC server before the original egg was thrown into the void and destroyed.

After surviving over 20 minutes with The Blood God, Jeff Wither XIII, in felhaunter's (at the time unopened) museum without taking damage, Masked was granted the rank of Demigod, although it is still unknown what he is the Demigod of. This was solidified when he was granted creative mode by an unknown member of the mod team, which he used to spend more time with Jeff. He is the only non-member of the SootMC staff team to have received creative mode at any point besides the end of the season, as well as the only known Demigod.

As of 07/12/21, because of World Guard, the entrance to The Blood God, Jeff Wither XIII's enclosure is now open to all players. Players will no longer take damage from Jeff, meaning that no more Demigods can, at the present time, be crowned. This means that until further notice, Masked is the only Demigod on SootMC.

One of the only three copies of his player head resides in Jeff's room in the museum. The second is on the head wall, also located in the museum. The whereabouts of the third is unknown.

Masked is also one of the only players to own an Enchanted Golden Apple that was not bought from/given by another player (ie was found in a lootchest). It is named 'I Survived The Blood God And Got This Lousy Apple'.

At one point, due to a glitch that failed to allow the Ender Dragon to be respawned, Masked dawned a dragon head and enchanted elytra and used a firework crossbow to create an imitation dragon fight for the players who had collected. He managed to kill several of the players without being taken down. This event resulted in him unofficially being known as The Void Prince.

Near to the middle of the season, he began playing significantly less. This is evidenced by his house going unfinished.

## 1.18

Masked made his big return to SootMC at the beginning of the 1.18 season. He quickly moved into a jungle basin and brought it to life, creating a quadruple beacon that shone through the centre of his house. He revived the basin with every colour of axolotl and a large number of turtles. He unofficially rejoined Wilbark, but has yet to build anything there. He was invited by Tay and Felhaunter to join Hidden Valley, a small selective valley hidden within a mountain range. He aided in constructing several of the buildings there, as well as creating the hot springs, the chicken geode, and providing the inspiration for the Among Us shrine located in town.

He also lives with boo2thefool, Fr1edTofu, Otisthellama, and ezra\_loves\_you in Sleepy Meadow, a small community created by Boo. He found a pig and named it Boneless Pork Shoulder, which he jokingly said he 'named after Technoblade'. Boneless was repeatedly killed, revived, and killed again by Fr1edTofu, and when Masked attempted to make him a grave, Tofu, Otis, and Ezra repeatedly broke it. This led to Masked walking off into the distance and making Boneless a grave far away from the village, with the epitaph reading '*rest in peace boneless pork shoulder. you were taken too soon by too cruel a world*.' Boo noticed that he was upset and followed him, and both sat at Boneless' grave together. Upon returning to the village the next day, Masked found that the original grave had been reconstructed. He later found another pig and named it Harold, who resides safely next to Boneless' first grave. He also created an amethyst-themed axolotl pool nearby.

He was falsely imprisoned in the Shameber (Shame Chamber) before escaping, where Felhaunter was placed inside of it. Masked agreed to help Fel escape, on the agreement that Fel would give him a signed autograph from Obama. When Fel escaped and begin running, Masked chased after him, catching him at the Yeet Boat, where Fel stated *"Obama isn't real. I don't have his autograph. I lied."* And threatened to kill Jeff Wither XIX (19) to become more powerful than Masked (Masked is a Demigod and Fel is not), because Masked bullied him for 'being a stinky little lettuce head'. In turn, Masked stated that he would never let Fel kill '[Masked's] lover' and would rather do it himself first, and that Jeff loved him most. Fel argued that Jeff loved his wife first, and Masked second, where Masked responded 'i'll take it', followed by 'threesome!'. Fel immediately logged off following this, with many members of the server claiming that Masked had officially killed Fel. This makes Felhaunter his first, and currently only, canonic murder. Masked then went to the museum to see his lover, Jeff Wither XIX.

## Trivia

* Masked's species is currently unknown, although he's stated previously that he uses the gills to breathe.
	+ Some believe that he may be a shapeshifter of sorts, as he explains that he 'feels naked without his wings' although he doesn't always have them. His skin has also undergone several minor but visible changes that coincide with this theory.
* Despite being a Demigod, he doesn't appear to have any special abilities, except for the fact that Jeff seems to be unable to kill him.
* He was falsely accused of being the Wings during the 3 hour long arrival of 'Boots and Wings' (also known as The Bread Lords), and states that he 'was mining in the Nether the entire time'.
	+ This was further supported by the fact that he publicly stated that he had gathered more than a stack of ancient debris in the chat.
	+ He even allowed for himself to be killed to prove that he had none of the aforementioned items in his inventory, leading to the first and only copy of his head to exist on 1.18. It is currently stashed away in his enderchest.
