**A5py** is a YouTube and Twitch streamer on the *MianiteRPG*, having first been invited to the server after participating in the Mianite Build-A-Nite Building Contest. He first appeared in the *Chapter 12 Finale* event, briefly appearing in the *Storybook* and *New Odinset*.

Within the *MianiteRPG* lore, **A5py** portrays a character of himself; a traveller upholding his moral code of "*don't kill, don't be killed*", who ended up in the strange setting of the *Storybook* and *New Odinset* just as the latter was crumbling to pieces. Since then, he had become a prominent Guardian within the land of Oakheart, often exploring the realm and making quality-of-life additions to *Traveller's Refuge* with the Non-Quartz House, Campsite, balloon decor, and Market, just to name a few! With such actions being recognised by the others, **A5py** was encouraged to become a Mayoral Candidate for *Traveller's Refuge*.

Being a streamer for the server, **A5py**'s perspective of events can be seen in chronological order here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgQh5G2e9PIKcrrlEYvv9b6eyC7FXmzY\_.

## Before Oakheart

Approximately 5 years before arriving in *New Odinset*, **A5py**'s home realm would be destroyed by a chaotic entity he would later recognise to likely be his realm's Dianite. Having survived this, **A5py** would wake up in a new, almost empty world, being forced to learn how to build, fight and survive on his own, feeling lonely before finding other people -- some dangerous, and some friendly. **A5py** would make a friend that would give him a particular gift; a bright-blue diamond attached to a golden necklace.

Departing from his friend, **A5py** felt the need to keep journeying, though he didn't know why and what for. He got lost and felt lonely once more. He would later find an End Portal, defeat the dragon, and fall into the void, with the intent of losing his life.

Instead of dying though, **A5py** would wake up ashore within a new realm. From this, **A5py** discovered a primitive way to achieve realm travel. While the realm he ended up in was nice, he felt it was *too* dense and peaceful with no room for **A5py** to really have the positive impact he wanted. After spending time and reading books pertaining to the original stories of the Mianite Gods, he would fall into the void once more.

This time he would eventually end up in *New Odinset*, find the *Storybook*, and meet the other soon-to-be-Guardians for the first time, joining them on their adventures in Oakheart.

## Friends

**A5py**'s first friend was a girl he met sometime after his realm was destroyed. They would become close enough to care for one another, the girl giving **A5py** a certain necklace as a parting gift to remember their times spent working together. Her full relevance to **A5py**'s journey is unclear at this moment.

While **A5py** has a slight distaste for the Gods due to the title they hold and some of the Guardians for abandoning their title of "Heroes", he holds no real animosity towards any of them (aside from Dianite), often being friendly towards Mianite, Demon and the other Guardians, and willing to hear out Ianite despite her complicated history with everyone and her strict rule on no fishing within *Exordium Bay*'s fountain, which **A5py** had done jokingly anyhow.

Arriving in Oakheart, he would find a close friend in LK, often fishing, sharing their thoughts, and looking out for one another, even being seen as an uncle figure to her from Yuto and Ianna. Even so, being disapproving of Ianna as mayor of *Traveller's Refuge*, and making a deal with Dianite to get them out, both **A5py** and Ianna's mutual relationship soured a little.

When Paper arrived, he would be quick to find a brother-figure in **A5py**, and the two would have fun, build together, and look out for each other. **A5py** is also friendly towards Aristeaus *-* Paper's adoptive father - and whilst the two don't talk often, Aristeaus trusts him to keep his son safe, and **A5py** is sympathetic towards both their struggles, being more than willing to consider Aristeaus a friend and assist both in any way he can. Despite Paper's sudden amnesia and questionable past**, A5py** would continue to support him and his decisions in hopes that one day, Paper may regain his memories of Oakheart.

While **A5py**'s relationship towards Angel is shaky - having once admitted his fears towards her and a need to kill her if necessary - as well as the rest of the *Dianite Legion* by extension, his friendliness with her sister Demon remains strong, and is yet to look down on the kind goddess. And because of a friend having followed Dianite, his relationship with Vex has also been conflicting, making **A5py** very unsure whether the two are still friends, being unable to trust her intentions and motives. After the Refuge Town Hall debacle - where **A5py** had made a deal with Dianite and the *Legion* to help them re-roll the elections - mutual respect between one another had grown, **A5py**'s fear of *Dianite* had subsided by a large amount, and he was more friendly towards the other *Legion* members, namely Billy and Velo.

Another conflicting relationship is with Kal, whom was late in her arrival to Oakheart. **A5py** had hated Kal due to her mistreatment of LK, but began to sympathize with her when discovering the possibility of a second entity from the Dark World that Kal was present in before her arrival, now having a hold on her body. He now only wishes to help Kal and her boyfriend Nathan as best as he can before Dianite gets things to go his way.

After the beginning events of **Book 2, Chapter 3**, **A5py**'s relationship with all Guardians and Mianitian Gods has been soured drastically, losing all trust in favour of all the possibilities being loyal to Lucifer will bring. While **A5py** still considers LK a friend, he can't trust her anymore, leaving him to go through with his goal alone.

## Main Lore

### Book 1, Chapter 12 Finale

**A5py** joined the other heroes in their last quest to defeat *Queen Ianite*, where he would also briefly meet Alice (a *Storybook* variant of Genesis) and Hayyven (the daughter of Ianite), who asked **A5py** to "*Take care of this lot*" when they would leave the *Storybook*. Due to how unexpected his appearance was, **A5py** couldn't fully grasp what was going on, and went along with the others for the ride, assisting them in defeating Queen Ianite and evacuating *New Odinset*. Even so, he still agreed to Hayyven's request.

### Book 2, Chapter 1

During this chapter, **A5py** was one of the only few people who didn't see a need to return magic, as it could cause more problems than fix more issues, a suspicion that became validated when Demon was murdered shortly after magic was returned. **A5py** would reluctantly help the other sky fallers, even carrying one of the relics needed to return magic; *The Bow of Artemis*.

Due to his lack of understanding of how death worked within Oakheart, **A5py** was also reluctant to save Demon in *Purgatory*, viewing the others as crazy for not grieving normally. He only agreed to helping them, only to make sure nobody else dies. **A5py** would also be the person to find *Genevieve* hiding in *Purgatory* and squish *Eddie*.

At some point, **A5py** managed to find an End Portal near his home by sheer luck, and showed it to Mot. This kickstarted his and Ianite's studies on Oakheart's equivalent of The End, sometimes referred to as "the Void Dump", but known later as the *Primal Lands*.

### Book 2, Chapter 2

**A5py** was more prominent throughout this chapter overall. During the decision to spare or kill *Gorr*, **A5py** was the first to choose to spare him. He would feel disgusted at the other Guardians for both choosing to kill *Gorr* and leave his body at the *Madhouse Inn*, along with immense guilt for not doing more to circumvent *Gorr*'s death -- his corpse servng as a reminder of the lives he couldn't save in the *Storybook*. Driven by this guilt, he was also the first to suggest to *Corr* and the other Guardians the possibility of de-petrifying the *Storybook* residents.

When Mot left Oakheart during this chapter, he left his pet wolf *Luna* behind. Having checked up on *Luna* several times before Mot's departure, **A5py** volunteered to look after her. *Luna* now lives with **A5py**, who is taken good care of by him and LK.

    Upon defeating *the* *Haelstorm*, **A5py** would find and take ownership of *The Captain*'s flintlock pistols, a weapon he had been fascinated with for a while as he thought they would be cool to own. He would paint the guns silver and blue to make them feel like his own.

**A5py** also felt immense guilt after *The Cruel Mistress* attacked *Hyli Chyli*, as he - alongside the other Guardians - failed to provide adequate defense measures to the town, breaking the promise they made to *Elia*. **A5py** would go behind everyone's back to inform *Elia* of their failure to protect her people, a gesture she would be distraught, but still thankful for.

Due to *Runic*'s knowledge on **A5py**, *Moriarty* felt the need to speak to **A5py** regarding a private matter. *Moriarty* - with the plan to merge both *Tez* and *Xaal* back into *Tezixaal* - required someone he'd know wouldn't outright kill *Xaal*. Knowing **A5py**'s stance on killing others, *Moriarty* informed **A5py** of his plan, and got him on board with it, being able to meet and write to other Guardians to fill them in on the plan.

Waiting on plans to come to fruition, **A5py** (alongside Vex) was the first to come in contact with and fight a Null, one of Xaal's presumed followers. This would have ripple effects -- with Nulls becoming more prominent around Oakheart, this would put *GEAR Industries* and the *Dianite Legion* on the defense more than before, preventing the abduction of *Dagrun* and *Wimborne*'s people. **A5py** striking down the initial Null would also help with *Ria*'s research on the mysterious beings, having taken a sample of their strange blood.

During the final confrontation with *Xaal*, **A5py** - reading the message *Moriarty* left him that only said to "Listen to the whispers" - was able to listen to and do as what the voice asked of him, rounding everyone up and successfully performing the ritual, with some resistance from *Tez*. *Tezixaal* (or Teyvix) were thankful for their second chance and promised to restore Oakheart to the best of their ability (including the restoration of the *Wolves' Cave*, *Hyli Chyli*, and *WImborne*).

With the shards coming back after *Moriarty*'s sacrifice, *Runic* - now with a full soul and the *Hallowing Host* still inside him - performed one more sacrificial act to protect Oakheart from himself, going out with a bang. Before going out, **A5py** was quick to say "Take comfort in the choices you made, because they were shit ones" -- informing and judging him on some of the horrible actions *Runic* performed, with his kidnapping, blackmailing, the ritual sabotage, and his destructive vendetta against Ianite coming to mind. While his feelings towards *Runic* are conflicting, **A5py** still held some respect for those mourning him, and for *Runic* himself, and remembering the pleasant interactions they had, even still considering him a friend.

As evident by the Halloween event "The Carver's House o' Nightmares", **A5py** was still distraught at the fact the Guardians chose to kill *Gorr*, having been forced to fight and kill a fake version of him himself and expressing his discontent with being forced to make that same choice. Conflicted on the strange nightmare scenario, he also felt bad for unintentionally robbing LK's chance to overcome her fear of *Gorr* by letting her kill him herself. **A5py** helped LK from having a full-blown panic attack, and both comforted one another during the remainder of their time in - and once they were finally out of *- Carver Kin*'s mansion.

### Book 2, Chapter 3

With a whole year of prep ahead of the Guardians, Lucifer was able to make everyone fear him within a day, quickly surpassing the terror and fear Xaal brought to the Guardians. Feeling out of options, and seemingly for the survival of himself, **A5py** saw no choice but to truly suck up to and show his loyalty to Oakheart's new king. Although this sudden shift of personality and morale was strange and unquestioned, everyone else still seemed to catch onto the fact that **A5py** was acting off...

Suspicious of **A5py**, Angel prompted an investigation on him, using the Dianite Legion and a secret informant to get info of **A5py**'s motives and *true intentions*. Finding out through a suspiciously-placed journal that **A5py** supports Lucifer, and using the informant (who **A5py** heavily suspects to be LK) to get information on him, they were able to surmise that **A5py** - although known to have a plan of some sorts - is untrustworthy, and was stripped of his title as Guardian of Oakheart.

Fortunately though, this just might work in **A5py**'s favour.

## Journals

After key events, **A5py** would often write new journal entries that would be found within his Jungle Beachside home, documenting recent events and offering his internal thoughts on these happenings too. While few have looked into **A5py**'s journals, those that have had gained new insight on past events and **A5py** himself, one such person being *Runic*.

### Book 2, Chapter 1

#### 1st Impressions

In this first entry, **A5py** highlights the weird happenings he experienced when meeting the others and arriving in Oakheart for the first time. **A5py** wrote about his competence to survive and help the magic-less realm in any way he can.

#### Follower (Part 1 and 2)

**A5py** goes deep in thought, explaining his opinions on Gods in general, the absrdity of following Gods, as well as his thoughts on the MianiteRPG Gods, referencing past knowledge of what he learned when previously reading about the original Mianite Gods.

#### Violent Lands

While the few previous books alluded to **A5py**'s general distaste to killing other people, it's exaggerated in this one. **A5py** expresses his worries and concerns with the (yet-to-be-called) Guardians and their violent nature, along with the difficulty everyone has with not hurting people. **A5py** also shows concerns in this book first on the issues bringing back magic may bring, and how he feels like a pawn despite his Godless status. He wishes to not let Oakheart change him for the worst...

*Runic* - when looking through **A5py**'s journals, caught onto his reluctance of killing and hope of finding another way, admitting to being intrigued by it in his letter to **A5py** "Silver Lining". *Runic* game some credit to **A5py**'s ideal, but warned him to "[not] save people who have gone too far to save themselves".

#### Oh, the misery!

**A5py** explains strange magical phenomenons happening as each *relic* is collected, namely the *Cheeris* and *Arcane*'s appearance. He also talks about information gathered from *Arcane*, relating to *Hades* and *Lucifer*'s use of *Arcane* in the past, and how *Lucifer* used them to summon a god-slaying beast called *Abbadon* (coming from a dimension named "The Nowhere"), and once more to leave Oakheart.

#### Fools and Grief

**A5py** makes his hesitation clear when it came to saving Demon from *Purgatory* - referring to it as a fools errand - along with his regret of returning magic. He was fearful for everyone's lives, and justified the risk not being worth it. Although, as he had no power over everyone's decision, he would only go into *Purgatory* with the express purpose of protecting everyone else.

#### Anxiety

After saving Demon and attending hers and Mianite's wedding, **A5py** takes a step back to take in the absurdity of his current predicament, being surrounded by Gods, arriving in strange locales, the situation with Damon being Lucifer, and officially becoming a Guardian, amongst other things like the other Guardians, *Arcane*, *Geoff*, and *Gorr*. **A5py** reinforces his moral code to himself - to never kill or be killed - once again determined to do the correct thing.

#### Pry and Poison

**A5py** talks about the arrival of Aythiusa in Oakheart and the confusing revival of Pry and "the heaven bros"'s hand in that. He also makes note of Angel being posioned by a spiked arrow - something that is supposedly extremely unlikely normally - and the arrival of Pix, and the time she helped Andrew communicate with his brother Bruce with her powers of spontaneous realm-travel.

### Book 2, Chapter 2

#### Strange Dream

**A5py** has noted in his journals of a strange dream he had of him seeing himself falling through the void before reaching *New Odinset*. The falling boy would be woken up by an unclear feminine voice, his eyes emitting a flash of green, the dream ending with **A5py** waking up in a panicked state.

Paper found out about this after reading one of **A5py**'s journals, and is likely the only Guardian to know about it, sometimes poking fun at **A5py** claiming to have seen his green eyes -- a doubtful statement due to Paper's colour-blindness.

### Book 2, Chapter 3

#### The King

This journal entry was the hardest for **A5py** to write. Fearful that Lucifer might one day rummage through his belongings, **A5py** wrote a decoy journal entry and hid the others so that he could gain the trust of Lucifer. To surmise, the entry praised Lucifer and mocked the Guardians for attempting to fight him, and included a twisted comment on how Angel and Lucifer ruling Oakheart side-by-side would be heartwarming. It can also be noted that this journal entry is the only one with a subtle asterisk at the beginning of it.

While the book *was* found, the wrong person ended up finding it, so now **A5py** has to improvise...

## Trivia

* In comparison to other Heroes and Guardians, **A5py** is seen to have a generally less bias and more optimistic view on situations.
	+ This view is broken towards certain people though. When it comes to his hate and fear towards Dianite, **A5py** has a biased view against him due to his past with his realm's Dianite and his knowledge on other Dianites, often warning others about the danger he poses as.
* During summer weather, **A5py** is comedically prone to immense sunburn -- a realised fact during *Beach Day #2*.
* **A5py**'s mayoral speech generally brings up the safety, security and freedom *Traveller's Refuge* does and can have, and how **A5py** wants to maintain all these things, freedom especially.
* **A5py** is revolted at the idea of alcoholic drinking, smoking or drug usage.
	+ Hypocritically, **A5py** has previously used *Cocaine* sold at Angel's stand due to its legitimate use as a stackable speed-granting item, making travel more efficient. The canonicity is shady here, as **A5py** used it after renaming it *Swift Sugar* in an anvil, and continues to deny the use of *Cocaine*, getting uncomfortable when the topic is brought up.
		- The name *Swift Sugar* is a reference to an item within the original season one of a similar name; The Sugar of Ianite, an item that - originally - granted the user a speed boost.

* Because of a joke made early in Book 2 Chapter 1 regarding **A5py** catching fish in the sacred waters of *Exordium Bay*'s fountain PLUS the excessive fishing **A5py** underwent to get Mending books due to the limitations brought with no magic, A5py had become notoriously recognised as the fishing Guardian.
	+ This sole fact brought on *Fisherman Andy*'s one-sided rivalry with **A5py**.
* As the server utilises the plugin mcMMO, **A5py** was determined to have high levels in many Skills. As a side effect of levelling up the Taming skill, **A5py** is the only Guardian in Oakheart with an excessive amount of wolf pets.
	+ To rub salt in this wolf-shaped wound, staff disabled the Taming skill altogether in favour of yet-to-come features planned for pets, leaving **A5py** with too many tamed wolves to count and nothing to show for it.
	+ Despite the initial amount of wolves, **A5py** - when travelling Oakheart - continues to tame a lot of wolves during his travels, some of which follow him back home or to *Traveller's Refuge*.

* **A5py** can be seen as an over-achiever in several instances:
	+ In mcMMO, **A5py** (at the time of Book 2 Chapter 2) is at the highest legitimate level in most skills, and is placed at the top overall.
	+ Despite it not being a requirement, **A5py** has gone out of his way several times to look for and find several unfound locations, having found new towns such as *Beshelled* and *Wimborne*, *O.M.S.I.*, along with a few *rifts*.
		- **A5py** (with help from *Paradox*) also found *Genevieve* in *Purgatory* (or rather, where *Genevieve* SHOULD have been, had staff accounted for **A5py**'s persistence and unexpected appearance at her location).
	+ **A5py** has made notable contributions to *Traveller's Refuge* that benefits everyone, including the *Non-Quartz House*, the *Market*, along with new land so there is more build space, along with other minor additions.
	+ For quick travel without the reliance of *Waystones* or warp commands, **A5py** started the *Nether Highway*, continuing to add onto and improve it as new locations are found.
* While it is rarely inferred or shown within the server, **A5py** does commonly wear and need glasses. This detail is only ever depicted and shown in art and with the use of a third-party mod when watching **A5py**'s POV.
	+ This is the case simply due to **A5py** (IRL) being unable to texture glasses onto the already detailed face of his Minecraft skin, with no way to add onto his skin without changing it completely.
* Out of all the server's streamers, **A5py** (subjectively) has the better structured VOD archive, having unique titles and thumbnails on all his MianiteRPG YouTube videos.
* While not used in any official capacity, **A5py** has a playlist of songs that fit his in-world character, which can he seen here! These are songs that fit fairly well with character lore, main lore, utilise different feelings and emotions from different parts of the story, because they fit **A5py**'s vibes, or because they're simply just neat!
