The Creature

Creature

* Default
* Ghost

**The Creature** is played by FrivolousFish in CloverCraft Season 2. He was sentenced to Holiday Island due to a failed coup on a corrupt oligarchy in the Abyss.

## Appearance

The Creature was a tall humanoid being covered in orange scales. He had an open, upturned mouth(similar to most surface feeding fish) and two barbels on his chin. His ears resembled a fish's fins. He also had several protruding bones located along his back, his feet, and the hole located on his chest.

## Personality

Creature was a sworn protector. He devoted himself to defending the people of the city in which he lived his entire life until being imprisoned. He would often look for ways to diffuse tension, keep order, and protect those unable or unwilling to defend themselves. Being quick to trust other characters was a large part of Creature's identity.

## History

### Pre-imprisonment

Prior to being sentenced to island, Creature was a high ranking guard in his home city located in the Abyss. The oligarchy in charge of the city began accepting bribes, supporting systemic brutality in law enforcement, and imprisoning those openly dissenting their rule. Some of the citizens in opposition went missing after being jailed, presumably being taken to a location similar to Holiday Island.

Creature and a handful of his colleagues organized a secret rebel force made of veteran city guards, both high and low ranking guards, common citizens, and a small number of supporters from other cities and civilizations. The coup was set to succeed, but a last minute, unplanned appearance of a close associate of Bill Wibbly and their entourage of personal guards gave the oligarchy enough force to put a stop to the core coup force. Despite succeeding in the smaller operation he led, Creature ended up being sold out by some of the rebels captured during the insurrection. After being located and arrested, he was sentenced to Holiday Island.

### The Crown Arc

#### Sessions 1-13

Upon arriving on the island, Creature recognized a lack of order and immediately began laying out a plan to organize a headquarters for himself and any other inhabitants that would be interested in eventually establishing and maintaining order for the prisoners. Not long after breaking the dirt on what would eventually become the unfinished headquarters, Creature was asked for gold by Rashwings and happily complied, even giving him an enchanted golden apple. He saw Rashwings' drive to rule the people and decided to support him, hoping to influence his rule in a positive way.

Shortly after, Creature began noticing the disapproval from the other inmates. Rashwings had begun calling himself the King and demanding taxes paid in gold. These occurrences led Creature to begin distancing himself from Rashwings before anybody associated the two. During the first event at the Thunder Dome, Rashwings took his own life in order to escape the challenge set before him. This was the last straw for Creature, as he knew he couldn't let a coward and a tyrant rule over the people. Creature claimed the crown and declared himself as the new King. Despite not wanting to use the term "king" himself, the term was eventually viewed positively and accepted by the other inhabitants once Creature began establishing infrastructure using his own resources.

Rashwings refused to accept the transfer of leadership, and would continue to make attempts on Creature's life for weeks to come. These attempts included dumping lava, starting fires, and fishing rods, which led a ban on public use of fishing rods. This was the only law for Creature to enact in his time as a ruler. Following Rashwings' vandalism of Creature's headquarters, an agreement was made to settle things in a public duel to be held where it all began, the Thunder Dome. Prior to the fight, Rashwings had set up a hidden cache of his belongings that he would use to end Creature's life. This would wind up being a permanent end to Creature for reasons unknown to the other inhabitants.

## Trivia

* Creature's design is based on the Minecraft mob known as the Warden.
	+ This was paired with the concept of this character being the islands warden, who was also imprisoned. This idea was scrapped after a miscommunication between the players outside of game led to the organizers giving the role of warden to a separate character, Sgt. Clarkson.
