**Kazoo Timbral** is an Artist smp season two character, created and played by applicant member KazooDoesArt. Kazoo is a farmer who lives by herself at Slacker Barrel. She was mainly reclusive during the first half of season two, but became more relevant in the plot later on, mainly due to her friendship with Wilbie, and rivalry with Tenley.

## Appearance

### **Physical Appearance**

Kazoo is a 5'4" (162.56 cm), 20 year old human female. She has light skin, cyan-blue eyes, and light brown hair, with highlights at the front. Small plants sprout out the top of her head, a trait passed down to her from Thanh's husband. On her chest, across her heart is a burn scar from her first death. (It represents a slash over a canon life heart)

After the finale, her body was scarred from where the sculk had been. Sculk also caused short white horns to grow from her head. Her left arm remained severed and missing, due to Tenley cutting it off.

### **Main Outfit**

She wears a dark blue short-sleeved trench coat and an orange turtle-neck shirt. She wears royal blue fingerless gloves and matching thigh-high socks. She is sometimes seen wearing a diamond necklace.

### **Finale Outfit**

Kazoo wears a white, shoulderless shirt with two pairs of sleeve straps; and baggy, dark green pants fastened by a matching cloth belt. On her hips rested a loose leather belt with a pouch on her left, with golden buckles. Matching her pants is a short arm warmer on her right arm; around her severed left arm was lighter green bandages. She wore laced, leather shoes with heels.

She wore a chain necklace holding a golden ring, it was Tenley's wedding ring, which he gave her as a promise to move on from his regret.

## Personality

### **Beginning**

On the surface, she likes to maintain a collected image that demands a level of respect from anyone. In execution, however, she tends to boast and sometimes lash out. As much as she tries to hide it, she's highly emotional. She hides her insecurities with layers of pride, arrogance, and self-isolation.

Kazoo is a die-hard perfectionist. If something isn’t exactly perfect, it will pick at her until she fixes it. She has difficulty working with others, because she feels it will only turn out right if she does it herself.

Certain incidents caused her to be highly sentimental. She holds onto memories, objects, and words; but if necessary, can cut people out of her life.

### **Development**

As Kazoo grew closer to many people, she felt that she could allow herself to have connections and love again. She began to think of others before herself for the first time in years.

She revealed to Tenley that she saw the similarities between him and herself, only she saw him as someone with greater potential. She saw him as someone who wasn't afraid to work hard, and to keep trying to achieve his goals, which is something that she never saw in herself. This was one of the reasons she despised him so much.

In return, Tenley revealed to Kazoo that she reminded him of Ajax, his late husband. He resented that he knew everything she told him was something Ajax would say, especially regarding the portals.

### **Post-Finale**

After the events of the finale, Kazoo was clearly able to see how much she'd taken for granted in life; namely people. She allowed herself to forgive, not only Tenley and others, but herself.

Kazoo was happy, and thought that she'd found her place, but she couldn't deny that something seemed missing. Especially with all she'd gone through in the past year, she wanted something *more* than her old life.

## Lore

### **Background**

In Kazoo's previous world, she lived in a village with her parents and little sister. There, she helped her parents farm and build houses. During times of war and poverty, her parents were sent out to assist in neighboring villages to help with their poor situations. Months after they should have returned, Kazoo and her sister began to lose hope on them returning at all.

Kazoo, at age 16, took on all the responsibilities her parents once fulfilled. The farm, building, taking care of her sister, putting food on the table, etc. Kazoo worked her absolute best to make sure the houses she built and repaired would be stronger than ever, and became obsessed with perfection. Her frustration hindered her work, and ultimately guaranteed failure.

One day, Kazoo became angry with her sister, and they got in a bad fight. Kazoo had finally had enough, and left her village.

### **Inventory**

Items that are commonly on Kazoo's person.

* **Kazoo's Hoe:** Gifted to her by Wilbie, a large netherite hoe. In the city of mirrors stream, she used it to take Tenley's first canon life.
* **Jupy Juice:** A potion that blinds and levitates the drinker, Kazoo hoarded loads of it after the masquerade "in case she needed an escape".
* **Men Book:** Self explanatory, a book that just says "men" for sixty-nine pages.
* **Tenley's Wedding Ring:** Tenley's ring from his marriage with Ajax, he gifted it to Kazoo as a promise that he would move on from his regret, because he knew Ajax was with him no matter what.

## Stream Summaries

### **A New Path**

***Aug/20/2022 - [Streamed by Henki]***

Henki, Pastel, Whimsy, Flight, Kazoo, Oddity, and Wilbie were recruited by Jupy to find a piece of data from a sub-dimension called "Chamelea". Kazoo was hesitant, as she was certain the group would mess things up somehow, but went along with it quietly. After all, she was bored and her schedule was clear.

At Chamelea, they met King Callisto, who guided them to Jupy's grave. There, the group was tasked to find *six keys* to unlock Jupy's consciousness; each key was a Minecraft block with the first initial removed (each removed initial would spell "MESIAL"). When all pieces were found, Jupy released a Warden on the group, initiating a long and perilous boss fight.

After the seven had finally defeated the Warden, Jupy claimed it seemed too easy; he nearly sent another, but was stopped by Callisto. Jupy then revealed Callisto to be his great-grandson.

Upon leaving Chamelea, they met a person named Artemis, who decided to follow the group back to the Artist SMP.

### **To The Past!**

***Sep/19/2022 - [Streamed by Kazoo]***

* (This was a 2 part stream, the first vod was lost)

After obtaining the data needed from Chamelea, Jupy sent the group back to the season one world. There, they met Taffy, Siph, Pastel (s1), Arty, the Mesial, and s1 Jupy. During their stay, Jupy revealed that the group could not go home until he finished the way for them to travel back, which would take longer than expected. The 2nd vod starts after the group had spent a month in the season one world; Jupy finally found a way for them to get home, and gathered everyone at Dollar Tree.

Wilbie had spent the time clinging to Siph, who revealed he didn't want to be friends with Wilbie because they remind him of himself; Siph warned Wilbie about the path he was going down.

After they returned home, Kazoo realized she was beginning to feel attachment to people again, namely to Wilbie and Artemis. She tried to fight it, reminding herself about "what happened last time" she was attached to people.

### **Wilbie's Home**

***Oct/7/2022 - [Streamed by Kazoo]***

Wilbie takes Kazoo to his old Nisse village that he had been exiled from, as it had mysteriously become a ghost town. There, he showed Kazoo the various tunnels, homes, and rooms, they saw how a once flourishing community had grown into a deserted waste. Clues lead them to believe that after Wilbie was exiled, his friend, Freda, had abandoned her job as the food provider to go look for him, causing the rest of the village to flee.

Seeing this, Kazoo grew even closer to Wilbie, and took more of a sisterly role in his life.

### **The Rocket Incident**

***Oct/10/2022 - [Streamed by Flight and Skid]***

Kazoo was started awake by a faint rumbling in the earth, then went back to sleep. Yup.

### **Tenley wakes up**

***Oct/16/2022 - [Streamed by Flight and Kazoo]***

Kazoo travels to the Powerplant after hearing others gathering around there. She meets Ant and Atom, and introduces herself as "a big deal", attempting to give herself a stronger first-impression. Accompanied by Jupy, Oddity, Flight, and Artemis, they explore the building; but are met with an unexpected *concern* in the basement. Tenley Amo, the mysterious man in the tube, was *gone*. After a short panic, the group spotted him on the balcony, frantic and confused. Jupy stepped up and attempted to calm him down, explaining what had happened in the century he was asleep; but Tenley wouldn't listen, he claimed they were lying. He was clearly adamant about finding his husband, Ajax, and the A-Team; in his haste, he ran outside, only to see the disheveled and aged remains of the building's exterior. Tenley finally accepted that they were telling the truth, and Jupy then revealed himself to him.

Kazoo expresses to Wilbie her frustration that all the members of the SMP seem to flock towards the powerplant, rather than the Chad Pad and Dollar Tree. With those two locations being important to her, she works hard for them to flourish, but often to no avail. She tells Wilbie she has no problem with Tenley personally, but that the powerplant has "gotten a little loud", and she worries that power over the server could go to Tenley simply due to his age and intelligence. Especially seeing what happened with Wilbie's eye, Kazoo does not care for the powerplant; she believes it's only caused pain, especially to the ones she cares about.

Near the end of the stream, Kazoo pulls Wilbie aside and asks him to promise that he'll be more careful, that he wont hurt anyone else, that he wont try to continue things with the Powerplant, and that no matter what, they'll stick together. Wilbie says he can promise everything but the Powerplant part, and explains that it's still important to him.

### **Job Application Hunt**

***Oct/19/2022 - [Streamed by Nagalie]***

After the Chad Pad went inactive, Nagalie visited Dollar Tree in pursuit of a job; and there, she met Tenley. The two spoke to each other as Artemis, Kazoo, and Wilbie went about their daily Dollar Tree shenanigans and tasks. Artemis and Nagalie expressed interest in Tenley's work, and much to Kazoo's dismay, so did Wilbie. Kazoo tried talking him out of wanting to volunteer at the Powerplant as his eye was still in bad shape from the radiation. Tenley proposed that he would clear the environment to safe working levels, and then allow others to have jobs there. Kazoo was very much opposed.

Throughout the stream, Kazoo taunted, boasted her skillsets, and picked fights with Tenley. Finally, after arriving back at the underground market, Kazoo and Tenley got in a fight, which Naga and Artemis attempted to ignore while they discussed past events and *Magnus*. As they talked, chat messages displayed the events of Kazoo and Tenley's fight, and Kazoo was clearly losing.

Tenley caught back up with Art and Naga, and they discussed the Powerplant's food situation; shipments of food could no longer come in, so they would need to find new means of obtaining it. Nagalie suggested they have a farming workshop, with the help of Kazoo. Tenley objected, but Naga begged him. Kazoo stated she would do it as long as they listen to her.

### **The Farm Workshop**

***Oct/28/2022 - [Streamed by Kazoo and Nagalie]***

Kazoo and Wilbie met up with Nagalie, Artemis, Tenley and Jupy at the community house for the debriefing of the farming workshop. She asked if they were fully ready to commit to the "serious farming lifestyle", to which they all agreed, some more than others. Tenley still didn't like it, but he recognized the benefits that would come. Jupy mentioned his PHD in agricultural science, so he was just there for the heck of it.

After they agreed, Kazoo lead the group to an open plains field just west of the Valley. Kazoo placed 7 chests between a river and a tree, and had the group empty their inventories into them. She first tasked them with building farming tools from their surroundings, as she believes it's best to be self-reliant and capable of starting from scratch. The group slowly and begrudgingly began to craft tools, most were confused by why they couldn't use what they already had. The next step was to find water and begin tilling the ground.

As the day progressed, Kazoo and Tenley became increasingly more resentful of one another, and their arguing grew worse, until finally they began lashing out at each other. Kazoo expressed her frustration at Tenley for his constant insisting on relying on technology, and asked him what he would do if he lost it all. Tenley rebutted with the fact that he *has* lot everything, something he and Kazoo have in common.

### **The New Arrival**

***Nov/18/2022 - [Streamed by Kazoo]***

Kazoo worked on the powerplant yard as Tenley, Ant, and Artemis worked to clean up the failed portal. They gathered in Tenley's office, and a stranger crashed through the ceiling; introducing themselves as "Shoelace".

Tenley talked Shoelace into getting a job at the powerplant, as he was desperate for more employees. They seemed excited about it, obviously to Kazoo's amusement. She tried to convince Shoelace into getting a job at Dollar Tree instead.

At the powerplant front, where the failed portal sat, the group spotted Sculk growing from it, causing Kazoo to lash out on Tenley, telling him what he was doing was reckless and stupid. He argued that he just wanted to see his friends again, Artemis stepped in telling him to let go, and that they were gone.

### **Digging Up Dirt...**

***Dec/03/2022 - [Streamed by Nagalie, Henki, and Kazoo]***

Henki, Ice, and Kazoo met up at Dollar Tree, talking casually, when Kazoo brought up Tenley's portals; catching Henki's interest. They asked about what's been going on, Kazoo explained how Tenley has been building faulty, dangerous portals, and how there was sculk found near the portals ruin. Ice and Henki knew the dangers of these kind of things, and urged that they go speak to Tenley.

The three traveled to the powerplant, and found Tenley, Artemis, Nagalie, Atom, and Oddity in the basement. The room contained large *unfinished portals*, one of which was to travel through time. Kazoo and Henki were outraged by this, and very much opposed to Tenley continuing further. Tenley rebutted, claiming that he knew what he was doing, and he believed it would help people.

Nagalie stepped in, and revealed she was working with Tenley on the Portals, she argued that it was to save her people. Kazoo disagreed, she felt that *more* people would be endangered if they were to mess with time and space. Artemis also revealed that he was on Tenley's side, actively betraying Kazoo.

After everyone had argued, they began to accept that Tenley would go through with this regardless. Henki said they would discuss it with Aithne, and ushered Ice and Kazoo to leave with them. Kazoo stayed behind, claiming she would not leave until this was over. Her anger got the best of her, and she handed Tenley an Axe, telling him to fight her right then. She made the first blow, Tenley fled, attempting not to fight back, but Artemis used his lighter on Kazoo, burning her alive and **taking her first canon life**.

She awoke in her home, intensely shaken up, recollecting what had happened. *She felt as though lots of time had passed since she died, yet it was only moments ago; as if events had taken place, and quickly wiped from her memory.*

Henki found Kazoo on the path to the powerplant; Kazoo was still shaking and dazed, Henki carried her back to Dollar Tree, and talked about what had happened. Kazoo began to realize that Artemis likely never cared for her, since he was so willing to switch sides, and *kill* her.

At Dollar Tree, Henki and Kazoo talked to Aithne, Emmi, Jupy, and Ice. Aithne confirmed that the portals were not a good idea, Kazoo felt that her fighting was justified. Henki and Aithne spoke one on one, while Ice, Kazoo and Jupy spoke about the portals. Jupy stated that the likelihood of something going awry was small, but he ultimately didn't know and didn't care. Kazoo wanted to trust him, and believe that she was just overreacting, but felt he didn't care much for anyone's safety.

Kazoo ran into Tenley and Artemis again, and spoke about what happened. Artemis stated that while he did care for Kazoo, there are events in time that need to take place, the portals being an aspect of it; confirming that the portals are a fixed point in time. He was making sure they would happen.

Afterwards, Henki and Kazoo talked, Henki told her that they would have a dollar tree meeting soon, that Kazoo was in the right, and told her not to trust Artemis anymore.

Artemis overhears this, and approaches the two; saying, if they're looking old recipes, that he might have a book that can help them!

The three travel to the Archives of Magnus, who left behind a library of knowledge before his disappearance. There, they find an old journal that once belonged to Thanh, it read:

Kazoo and Oddity share their pasts with one another, Kazoo mentions she had two younger siblings back in her old home; Rain and June.

### **Lighten the Dark**

***May/05/2023 - [Streamed by Kazoo]***

Kazoo goes to the Powerplant to place candles at the portal where Naga and Lumi left; though they all knew they were home and safe, people would come to pay respects, as no one had the chance to say goodbye. As Kazoo stood in the Powerplant portal room, she heard commotion upstairs, and went to see what it was. A couple floors us, Jupy was connected to some kind of machine, with a large portal open. He instructed Kazoo and Tenley to **not** enter the portal, a warning that was *promptly* ignored as the two touched out of curiosity, and the portal pulled them in.

Kazoo and Tenley found themselves in a *freezing* dark space, noting it was much more difficult to breathe. Upon inspection, they were in a dark void, lit up by stars all around them. The island of mass they found themselves on was *covered* in cold snow. The sky was pitch black, all that could be seen were stars, planets, debris, old spacecraft, and destroyed buildings. A large, quartz pillar stood where they appeared.

Tenley and Kazoo heard Jupy's voice, seemingly from all around them, he told them that they were trapped in a pocket dimension, the one he goes to when he teleports. He told them that due to the fact that they don't originate from the dimension, they would *very* slowly disintegrate, the more time they spent there.
