# Box

*He/They, Aromantic/Gay Masc-alligned Non-binary, 17 years old, 4 cannon lives*

## Origin

Box showed up to the SMP mysteriously one day, nobody really knows where they came from, just that they showed up

Box originally grew up several towns over in a town known as Ghostspire, they were in orphan that nobody really ever remembered HOW they ended up in that orphanage, so quickly the other kids started joking that he was a Box Child, thus his name, but before that his name was Marrow, hes yet to tell anyone about this.

## Appearance

Box is very red toned in color, wearing a dark purple-y hoodie with skeleton designs, bright red eyes and matching silver earings and rings

## Story

Box wants to be powerful, quickly finding himself with powerful gear and a need to be in control, they often can be seen talking to locals with a demeaning or fake tone,

They originally found themself befriending Shibe, a player who showed violent tendencies and a clear need to have somebody to trust. going as far as to take one of Que's cannon lives in a show of willingness to kill as a way to prevent Doom from intervening.

not long after meeting Shibe, Box was approached by a God, offering Box the ability to steal others lives for himself and in return hed give up their soul, in the end Box said yes

Box originally planned to use Shibe as a pawn to invoke fear into the server to gain power for themself, but apon Shibes death Box gave up this idea in favor of a more political pathway,

### Failed Recruitments

They then sent doom a letter, featuring a fakeout refrence to The Magnus Archives, stating " **hello doom, sorry for the deception but i wanted to make sure only you were reading**" a clear refrence to TMA's "**hello Jon, apologies for the deception, but i wanted to make sure you started reading**"

the letter instructed doom to follow a path underground, then being presented with a book attempting to convince Doom to join his side and help him gain control over the server, under Dooms refusal they were trapped underground and splashed with a potion of poison, followed by Box coming in and stabbing them himself

Box later had a confrontation with Shard, its unknown how they got there but the two were arguing in the clock tower, Box wanted Shard as his right hand in his forceful takeover and Shard declined, in retaliation Box pushed him off the tower, Shard did not die, but they did receive injuries. This is where Box learns Shard is soulless.

near immediately after, Box meets Doom in Boxboo Alley, Box is shown to be angry at Doom for being late with their answer, which in the end was a no, and the two start fighting with Shard coming in to protect Doom, this is where its revealed Doom is also soulless. the two escape with minor injuries.

It’s around this time Box recruits Ori, Jaybird and que into the phantom syndicate, quickly finding themself to be drawn to Que as a friend, the two have a small moment together in which Que asks Box about his name and Box reveals his real name is Marrow.

### The Ghostspire Incident

During syndicate base construction with Jay, Box was swallowed by an orange frog and spent a few weeks traveling within it, eventually being spat out near his old home Ghostspire, while here Box went back to his old orphanage home and retrieved some of his old things, including an old tape recorder. its unknown how the brutal death Bolt occurred or the fire, believed to be arson, started, but both are suspected to be related to Box's return there.

### Return to Lostfield

after two long months of being away Box finds himself back in Ghostspire, immediately running into Quinn and finding out Que has died, Quinn and Box go around town a bit, Box taking a distress to being forgotten by Que and refusing to acknowledge that Quinn and Que are not the same person, the two discover that Box’s home has fallen to ruin very quickly since Box has been away and Box decides to try and find out how Que died, pushing the fact that many things have changed in his absence out of his mind.

After Quinn has to go, Box immediately finds himself on Shards doorstep. Shard, though not happy about Box’s return, let’s Box in and they share a few Taxit branded drinks, Shard stating “I didn’t even notice you were gone” something that would quickly become a reoccurring statement to those Box would be reintroduced to

Box found himself in his old house, stopping to feed Wizz and pick up some things, as he left noticing Ori outside. Ori was happy to see Box but was visibly panicked, telling Box theyre scared for both of their safety and trying to figure out how to leave Lostfield. Box isnt able to get much from them, just that William declawed them, before giving Ori a syndicate compass in case they needed it before Ori left in a panic after that,

Box decides that there's to many threats to syndicate members, and that he needed to tackle at least one problem or hed explode. so Box made his way to Kels house to ask some questions. Kel tells Box that doom killed Que before killing Shard, showing Box the death message on his communicator. Box decides that if Dooms willing to kill somebody they act like they care about, they must be willing to kill anyone, right? and Shard was willing to defend her, which made him just as bad. so Kel and Box divise a plan

kill shard and doom, and avenge que

Box and Kel had made a plan, the two made their way to the only place they knew Doom to be and, low and behold, the thing greated them, well not quite, more like she took one look at the both of them and ran and hid. but Box knew about the basement, he could thank shard for that. the two tell Doom to come with them or die right there, Doom, scared for his life, agreed to go. the walk was quiet, uneventfull, tension so thick box could take the very sword he held and cut it, but he didnt.

kel and box took doom back to the syndicate and put her behind two layers of bars, and there, they waited

Shard took only a day to make his way down to the syndicate for the confrontation, Box leading him down to where Doom was being held, in the end Shard killed Box and almost killed Kel, who survived via a totem.

Box, not satisfied with this outcome, would take Shard back into the syndicate a week later, giving him a new deal. His life, or Dooms, Shard chose his and is now set to be publicly executed on the 18th of October during the Phantom Syndicate Grand Opening
