Shallon joined Randomcraft shortly after Season one began and was the first Random to join after the series began. Although Shallon was new to Randomcraft, like many of the season one Randoms, he knew many of them from his time in Ironclad. Shallon's time in Ironclad was mostly spent farming materials which he said he "had no idea what to do with yet, being new to the game", which earned him the nickname "the Grindopus".

Shallon is known as the unpredictable, idiot octopus in Randomcraft and is often ridiculed by other Randoms in their episodes for being crazy, silly, idiotic, and hopeless. Despite this running joke, Shallon is actually considered one of the most intelligent Randoms with Enigma saying on stream that Shallon was "likely the most intelligent Random with degrees in physics and chemistry, he's just very good at hiding it!".

In the early episodes of Randomcraft season one, Shallon intending his character to be an evil villain but due to his comedic style and silliness no-one took his character serious which was exacerbated by the amount times he died falling off ladders in season one which lead to the nickname "slippy-squid".

## Season 3

Shallon started season 3 by dying to llamas and becoming Dewlan's Assistant Regional Secretary of Excellence (ARSE).

### Season 3 Trivia

* Shallon shouting "Space!" at Dewlan was a callback to season one.

## Season 2

In Season two of Randomcraft, Shallon appeared in a wandering trader outfit and referred to himself as "the wandering traitor". He set up a central town within Randomia called "The Emerald Outpost" which contained the Bank of Randomia and traded diamonds for "Gemeralds", a currency based on various different colored emeralds, which was adopted by the Randoms as the official currency of season two.

Shallon disappeared from making content around Halloween during season two to focus on some "real life" stuff he said was boring.

## Season 1

Shallon’s season 1 focused on Shallon’s frustrations with his adopted villager, Gerald. Much of the season was focused around this relationship either with Shallon sending Gerald out to complete various tasks that would help develop the island. Towards the end of the season Shallon’s goal switched from cooperation to elimination, as Shallon tried to assemble the components to build a spaceship to put a laser into space to destroy the Emerald Isle. The island was destroyed, but not by Shallon’s hand, and the season concludes with Shallon doing “science”, and converting the villagers into Shallon clones multiple times to replace the villagers who no longer find him beneficial to their society after the apparent death of Gerald by his hand.

### Season 1 Bases

Season 1 started off with a small acacia village on an island in the middle of the ocean. There was a small temple setup where the villagers could offer up sacrifices to the Octogod. The majority of the action took place on the island underground in a 64x64x64 square chamber hollowed out during the first week of the season. This portion of the base can be seen in the episode where Shallon tries to teach the audience how to convert villagers into zombies for a mending book, but ends up accidentally losing the villiger due to a lava mishap. The mob farm was floating above the island at this time.

Shallon eventually tore the small village down, and removed a mountain, creating a hole down to bedrock. He moved the mob grinder to this location, started to build a castle, and scatter a few small villiger homes along the top of the island, after Gerald dug holes everywhere looking for diamonds.

Shallon then blew up the island taking all of these builds with the explosions and began building the foundations for the Emerald city. These buildings are later converted to ruins once Shallon begins his quest for space.

Shallon ended the season with three science six science fiction builds and a large concrete platform. There were three tall battery towers, a main facility, and he begun construction on a large radar dish, and a mega storage facility. One of these buildings also housed the start of the Shallon clone villager hall.

### Season 1 Shops and Jobs

Shallon ran a small dye shop in the shopping district while awaiting the return of Archon, but Shallon never managed to stock the full range of colors. A new dye shop was designed to replace the placeholder towards the end of the season, but was never shown on camera.

### Season 1 Trivia

* Shallon was responsible due to a miscommunication for porting himself, Derpol, and Enigma into the zombie apocalypse by hitting the space bar on the dimension gate.
* Due to a recording error on Shallon’s part, the death of Zombie Enigma by the hand of Admiral Shallon never became cannon, thus opening up the opportunity for him to be brought back later in theENIGMAman’s season one finale.
