**Chess Piece** is a male contestant in Season 1 of Lifeline, the 100 Lives Camp. He ranked in 8th place and was eliminated on Episode 17. Their user is EmphX.

## Appearance

Chess Piece is a black King chess piece, although he appears more dark blue than black. Instead of a normal right arm, Chess Piece has a robotic arm. It was revealed in Episode 4 that this robotic arm was also a molten lava gun.

## Personality

Chess Piece is one of the most aggressive contestants of the season he was from, which resulted in being outcasted by almost everyone else. He is also mostly very egotistical, as he believes that he is more powerful than anyone else in the competition, even when that’s proven to be false occasionally. Despite this, he has made some friendships with a few, although often tends to break them with higher levels of aggression. He knows he’s an outcast, and he tries to stay an outcast, for god knows why.

Alongside this, he’s also shockingly intelligent when it comes to certain things. From what is known, his lava gun was made by himself, and he also seemed to have another kind of weapon that so far has only been mentioned a couple of times in Episode 10, but was already known by Snowglobe and Moped beforehand.

Regardless, Chess Piece is not exactly a great person to be friends with. At least, it was at the start. Ever since Episode 13 he appears to be more critical of his own faults, and began to realize the issues he had. Although he’s still aggressive, near the end of his run he became less so, but still failed to repair most relations he has had.

* *(To Monocoin, after the challenge)* **Monocoin:** “CHESS BITCH. What were you thinking, you fucking… TWANKER!” **Chess Piece:** “It’s not about thinking, it’s about sending a message.” **Monocoin:** “What message could you POSSIBLY send by killing everyone on the island!? **Chess Piece:** “Fuck off.”

## Relationships

###  Time Gear

Having their first official interaction in Episode 4, Time Gear’s naive side compared to Chess Piece’s seemingly lone-wolf behaviour made Time Gear want to stick with him. However, Chess Piece was unamused, as he always tried to shoo him off. But Time Gear still wanted to be his friend, so he persisted until Episode 6, where Chess Piece convinced Time Gear into a fight in the forest against Snowglobe, assuming that it was meant to be a revenge act. However, he immediately started to hate him when he realized that Chess Piece was plotting to kill her, also when he found out that he does it for fun.

Despite this, after some points, Time Gear and Chess Piece returned to neutral terms after Episode 8, when Time Gear tried to save him after he deliberately stayed at the erupting volcano, despite minimal success. From there, they had minimal interactions with each other until Episode 13 when something drastic for Chess Piece happened. Late that night, Time Gear dragged him into the jungle and tried to kill him, and almost succeeded until Strawberry Milk intervened. And from this point on, the relationship between these two have not been salvaged, nor is it known if it ever will be.
