**Maurice** is a powerful cosmic being who takes on the form of a ladybug, and is one of the main characters of Unrealistic Reality. He is one of the enemies of Rupert (although he often works with him if a greater threat to the server presents themself), with the other being his best friend and former rival, Gilgamesh.

Maurice is an influential figure on Rupert's Roleplay Server, and in addition, he created his own roleplay server, the aptly named Not Rupert’s Roleplay Server, now renamed to Maurice's Roleplay Server. He also serves as an ally and a benefactor to the nations of Bosnia and Albania (along with the rebellion of Kosovo) in their fight against Serbia and Montenegro, the former of which is led by Rupert. While Maurice does not lead or have power in either Bosnia or Albania, he is occasionally allowed to command the armies of both nations.

## Appearance

Maurice appears to be a simple ladybug with a red shell and black spots.

## Personality

Maurice is incredibly stubborn and determined to stand up to Rupert for the good of existence and the protection of his friends. He’s almost like a mirror to Rupert in the sense that both of them are very powerful on an intellectual level, constantly working on plans to one up each other.

Outside of battles, Maurice can be a little more aloof and incompetent, such as when he tries to co-host Rupert Says or manage his own spin-off game, Maurice Says. Nevertheless, he doesn’t dare to mess around in serious situations. When he’s driven, he’s very competent.

Maurice is not typically friendly to others; and yet neither is he typically hostile to them. He seems to be indifferent to most people, with the prominent exceptions of Gilgamesh and Rupert. His relationship with the Bosnian and Albanian authority is exclusively impersonal; he is an ally to them, but not necessarily a friend. Overall, Maurice seems to believe forming a vast array of social connections would take away valuable time and effort which could instead be spent combatting his enemies, and thus he sees the former as an unnecessary and counterproductive endeavour.

## History

Maurice’s origins are unknown, but a long time ago, he was an aspiring cosmic warrior whose goal in life was to defeat a much stronger warrior, who happened to be Gilgamesh. Having not prepared initially, Maurice challenged Gilgamesh to a duel and lost immediately. He realized his mistake and began training heavily to face his rival again. Eventually, he was ready and challenged Gilgamesh once more, but during the duel, a third challenger - Rupert - appeared and defeated both warriors simultaneously.

Maurice and Gilgamesh decided to set aside their differences and ally in order to stop Rupert, as they both knew that only their combined power would be enough. They challenged him, and Maurice fought Rupert first, distracting him while Gilgamesh charged up a critical attack. Rupert overpowered Maurice eventually and was about to kill him before Gilgamesh swooped in and used his critical attack. It was enough to win the fight and force Rupert to retreat. Gilgamesh was grateful that Maurice had sacrificed himself to give him time to defeat Rupert, and so the two abandoned their former rivalry and became friends. However, Rupert swore revenge on both of them, and that would not be the last time they crossed paths.

Maurice went on to participate in the founding of the Landmine Gang and aid their efforts to decrease live bee consumption across the dimensions. Eventually, he and Gilgamesh discovered the war between Bosnia, Albania, and Serbia, and upon researching who was in the right, they began supporting the former side. However, at the time they were not aware Rupert was the leader of Serbia.

Eventually, Rupert took his chance to wipe out his enemies and presented himself. He attacked the Landmine Gang and used mind-control gas to turn them into his temporary servants. This initially only worked on the Eversiscendants, however, since Jonathan, the Pillar Lord, and Admiral Quartz were strong enough to resist the gas for the time being. The three of them began to fight the Eversiscendants, trying to free them. Rupert called in the Serbian army as backup, only for Maurice and Gilgamesh to arrive with the Bosnian and Albanian armies (both of whom were immune to the gas). Maurice was shocked to realize Rupert had been the leader of Serbia this whole time.

A massive battle broke out, and Maurice and Gilgamesh fought Rupert again. Rupert managed to mind-control Gilgamesh, and Maurice was quickly overpowered. By now, Jonathan had also succumbed to the gas, but the Pillar Lord and Quartz were trying their best to free everyone using their own powers. Eventually, the Eversiscendants and Jonathan *were* liberated, and the Serbian army was forced to retreat, but Rupert was nearly able to kill Maurice. Thankfully, Gilgamesh was also freed of control through the collective power of the two Pillars and Jonathan, and came to Maurice’s aid. Rupert was defeated and escaped, but Maurice knew very well that things were not yet over.

Maurice and Gilgamesh continued to participate in the war between Bosnia, Albania, and Serbia, experiencing various shenanigans along the way. One day, however, the Greg Conglomeration emerged as a threat, which prompted Maurice, Gilgamesh, and Rupert to temporarily truce in order to combat them. This would happen again and again whenever the Gregs presented themselves, though at any other time, the three would still be at odds.

Trouble emerged again with the arrival of the\_squares and the Sex Army. Maurice helped the other RRS residents (Rupert included) defend the server from their relentless attacks, until everything culminated in the rise of Dan. Like most of the other RRS residents, Maurice was put under mind-control by Dan and forcefully assimilated into his army of slaves.

Thankfully, Rupert and Greg 3 had escaped, and soon afterward, they tracked down Maurice and came to his rescue, along with Michael. Maurice was freed of Dan’s brainwashing by Michael, whose tremendous amount of cringe forced Dan out of his body. Now liberated, Maurice joined Rupert and Greg 3 in their quest to save the others and stop Dan, a quest that remains ongoing.

## Miscellaneous Info

* It is completely unclear as to what type of cosmic being Maurice is, and as such, most simply consider him a ladybug for all intents and purposes.
* Maurice’s mother is an established RRS character, though she is unnamed. She appears to look exactly like Maurice. This has led to countless incidents involving Maurice's father and a bed.
