Zeragaud

## Description

Zeragaud was a player who played Minecraft competitively as a founder of a multi server faction, his dedication was formidable depending on his circumstances. Zeragaud has been to over 500 different servers with varying game mode and activity criteria, all of them generally being related with survival and accessibility. The majority if not all of the previously played on servers have shut down or have experienced total activity death.

## History - The Vanilla Server

### A New World, Another Speedrun.

When Zeragaud first joined he was inside a lightly lavacasted pit on a mountain where spawn was throughout the history of TVS, he escaped and began gathering resources to rush into the end and get maxed equipment as fast as possible.

Zeragaud established his first base ZFB a few thousand blocks away from spawn, Zeragaud was very lucky getting multiple high tier book villager trades in individual villagers after zombifying and curing them repeatedly. They rapidly crafted a full diamond tier maxed set of equipment by trading for experience, grindstoning books for experience and mining nether quartz for experience to enchant his equipment. At this point no one had opened an end portal for 2-3 days and Zeragaud was risking not being able to capture the First Dragon Egg, he was foccused on crafting his bow and hoe to complete his full gset when an end portal was opened by an unknown player.

The unknown player did not enter the end and this gave Zeragaud time to scramble getting into the end, he did not have enough ender eyes, however he had a maxed sword and more than enough blaze rods so he rushed through the nether killing enderman until he had more than enough eyes to light the portal. Prior to this he found a stronghold roughly 1000 blocks from his base, he went to the end portal, filled it and entered it immediately.

There wasn't anyone actively competing to get into the end first, Zeragaud had plenty of equipment and easily killed the dragon, the dragon egg was then stored in his enderchest and he began end busting.

### Exploration and Expansion

After getting more than enough shulkerboxes Zeragaud would pack up his valuables and hide the villagers at ZFB to leave and go establish a private more industrial base, ZSRF. Zeragauds Mobile Faction nick named RISER would join this server later after Zeragaud established ZSRF and begin expansion since the server had grown its activity unlike the majority of RISERs previously explored servers.

### The Grind-out

December 2020 would be Zeragauds most active month ever preparing for two end conflicts to capture the deggs, Zeragaud was under immense strain because his members were effectively leaching off him or trying to sabotage the war efforts. Zeragaud still managed to capture degg 2 and 3, however he was on the verge of burnout and no one was willing to take the weight off his shoulders.

A fourth end conflict was announced during Zeragauds break and Zeragaud was not prepared to grind more equipment, but he really wanted the 4th degg, so he grinded more equipment anyway and assembled a team of 6 against an estimated 20-30 people Unfortunately for Zeragaud they could not capture the degg because of their strategy and the overwhelming number of players targeting them, the next week would be the final week for 2 months where Zeragaud was actively supporting his faction as a head leader.

### Restless and Paranoid

Zeragaud tried to make his vice head leader take his position so that he could rest however they were unwilling and incompetent at handling his position, Zeragaud clearly defined what permissions they had and what they needed to do but they failed at utilizing their permissions fully and performing various tasks. Zeragaud would then be betrayed even more by his former allies and members degrading his trust for the people of the server in general. Zeragaud unable to join any factions in a desperate attempt to make good relations would quit the server for the next 2 months as Riser was full of conspirers and the recruits kept leaving as soon as they joined.

### Loss of Respect and Zeragauds Departure

After Zeragauds 2 month break Lakazookie contacted him interested to join forces to dominate the server. Zeragaud and Lakazookie would spend a day dedicated to optimizing the ranks and rank system of Riser before unofficially returning with Riser to the server, the only friend of Zeragaud MoTech would rejoin Riser and bring their friend with them. Zeragaud had felt enlightened for the first time since December and began continuing projects he stopped doing in January. On April 2nd 2021 the group of the few people Zeragaud had respect for would see TheDaringDarsons accusations and question Zeragaud to inevitably ban him and effectively kill Riser again.

Zeragaud will not forgive TVS for not letting Riser stand, especially for banning him for the rest of the servers lifespan.

### Aftermath

Because Zeragaud was banned for the remainder of TVS's lifespan, his stash of netherite and other extreme value items including the first degg are stashed in a mineshaft minecart chest, the second and third degg were sold for various items. The host of Zeragaud was increasingly more distressed at their actions until eventually Zeragaud would be cast and forsaken from their host never to arise again, or at least not again for a long time, for sapping their life of quality and causing unnecessary grief.
