The Hand of Admin 1

**Admin 1,** also known as **The Creator** is an American male who created the Instagram page @darthmemeus. Admin 1 is known for making roughly a quarter of Darthmemeus posts, and recruiting his friend, Admin 2.

## History

### Early Life

The person who would become known as Admin 1 had an interest in Star Wars from an early time in his childhood. He was known to often play games in the Lego Star Wars franchise, most notably Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga. His frequent consumption of Star Wars media likely lead to his eventual interest in making memes based on the Star Wars franchise.

At some point in his childhood he met and developed a friendship with the person that would become Admin 2. It is also heavily implied that Admin 1 knew Admin 2.5, Admin 3, and Outpost Beta 1 prior to the creation of Darthmemeus.

### Creation of Darthmemeus

In the earlier months of 2018, Admin 1 heard about the new meme page Outpost\_Beta, which likely sparked the idea of creating a meme page of his own, alleging that he "knew more about Star Wars", and "had really good meme ideas". At some point during the months prior to April 29th, 2018, Admin 1 discussed creating a meme page with the person that would become known as Admin 2, who initially expressed disinterest in making memes and wanted nothing to do with the project. However, after watching Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi for a second time, Admin 1 grew increasingly passionate in his hate for the film, leading to many discussions about the film's failures with his friend, the future Admin 2. During these conversations, the prospect of forming a meme page came up once again. After being enlightened to the failures of Episode VIII, Admin 2 was willing to undertake the meme page project with his friend in order to make memes about the shortcomings of the film. A desire to compete with Outpost Beta in the area of meme creation is also believed to be a driving factor in Admin 2's renewed willingness to create the page. On April 29th, 2018, the day that would later become known as MEMEUS Day, Admin 1 likely created the Instagram account @darthmemeus. The name was decided upon after a brainstorming session between Admin 1 and 2, in which Admin 1 completely ignored all of the ideas suggested by Admin 2 and infamously named the page Darthmemeus, a portmanteau of "Darth Plagueis" and "Meme". Prior to giving Admin 2 access to the account, Admin 1 posted two collections of memes, most of which compared the Star Wars Prequel Trilogy to the Star Wars Sequel Trilogy.

### Admin of Darthmemeus

Despite having posted the first two memes to the page, the overall contributions of Admin 1 would soon drop-off following the hiring of Admin 2. After Admin 2's initiation of The Goal, Admin 2 began posting the majority of memes due to having access to Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace on his iPhone. Admin 2 consulted Admin 1 on most "Every Line" memes prior to posting, resulting in some iconic memes created by Admin 1.

### Future Plans

Admin 1 will take part in the upcoming MEMEUS Meetup, in which the Goal will finally be completed. It has been rumored that Admin 1 will be memeing every line of Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones.

### Legacy

The legacy of Admin 1 is major. As the creator of Darthmemeus he is responsible for increase of local meme diversity experienced in the community of Darthmemeus and Outpost\_Beta, as depicted in the upcoming documentary MEMEUS: A Star Wars Story. Despite only having posted roughly a quarter of Darthmemeus memes, Admin 1 is revered by all other Admins, and many in the Star Wars community, as the creator of Darthmemeus.

## Personality and Traits

Admin 1 is known for his use of ground-breaking meme templates, and dark and sexually-charged sense of humor.

Admin 1 frequently suffers from the mental condition of Memer's Block, resulting in a lower output of memes compared to Admins 2 and 3.
