**Rabbit #70** was a member of the Angora Division in Tournament Two. He was known as the resident "medical expert" among the Rabbits, lending his knowledge whenever the Rabbits were in need of medical attention. He was originally sorted into the English Lop division as Rabbit #170, before being moved to the Netherland Dwarfs and becoming Rabbit #70. He was eliminated in Trial Five.

## History

### Early Days

Rabbit #170 signed up for the tournament along with the other Rabbits. While he didn't participate in the pre-tournament chat, he posted a brief introduction video and closely followed the Tournament tag on Tumblr. He posted on Tumblr that he had contracted strep throat one week before the start of the tournament; he expressed concern that it would affect his participation in the game. Nevertheless, #170 was present for the first Lop division call, as well as the Birthday Call on October 2; in both calls, he chatted and joked around and tried to help lighten the mood for the other Rabbits.

#170's first Trial video was posted on October 7. He voted for Rabbit #130 for Division Leader, because of their intelligence and quick-wittedness, stating "I would actually trust her with my life. For now". For runt, he chose Rabbit #113, whom he called an "immature brat at heart", a "attention seeker who refuses to even acknowledge how dangerous this actually is".

### Questions

As the days passed, #170 settled into his division. He became highly active in the Lop chat, with his keen observational and analytical skills, proving invaluable to the Rabbits as they tried to unravel the mysteries behind find.the.way, the Woman On the Phone, and the items in Box 1. #170 became especially close friends with Rabbit #130, often talking to them in private messages and discussing theories.

#170 posted his Trial Two video on October 22. In the video, he burned a photograph of his beloved dog, who was killed by his father in a drunk driving incident. #170 grew emotional as he spoke about his pet, explaining that this was his only remaining copy of the photo.

#170 was present for the fifth English Lop call. On October 30, #170 posted his run assignment video. Several days later, on November 4, he was moved to the Netherland Dwarf division, where he became Rabbit #70. Though he was disappointed at having to leave his friends behind, he easily settled into his new division.

### Secret Plans

When December rolled around, #70 joined some of his fellow Rabbits in signing up to receive a Christmas card from HABIT. Meanwhile, #70 had secretly received a private message from Find.the.way, inviting them to a secret call. #70 accepted and, on December 12, took part in the elicit call. Unfortunately, he had to leave early, as Skype was unable to handle a large number of people. However, Amrett privately messaged him later to explain the current situation. #70 had planned to be part of the secret relocation effort.

#70's hopes were dashed (along with the other Rabbits) when the plans tragically fell through. Nevertheless, #70 tried to keep an upbeat demeanor in the chats. On January 7, HABIT requested that the Rabbits who had signed up for Christmas cards (#70 included) private message him to confirm that they had received their cards. #70 apparently never received his card, as no pictures were ever posted.

### Taken Prisoner

On February 9, HABIT broke into #70's house and brutally beat him, before taking him prisoner. #70 was tied up and thrown into a freezer with his former division Leader, #164. The Rabbits were informed that #70 and #164 were being held as punishment for #00 and #140 refusing to turn in their "Memory" assignments. Rather than freezing them to death, howber, HABIT built a continuously burning fire in the middle of the prison cell; with each passing day, the prisoners were moved closer to the flames.

The Rabbits pleaded with #00 and #140, and tried to talk sense into them. #140 relented, and #164 was released. However, #00 refused, and continued to withhold his video. A week later, on February 16, #00 still hadn't turned in the assignment. Enraged, HABIT gave #00 an ultimatum: turn in the assignment by the weekend, or #70 would be killed.

In desperation, Rabbit #99 made a deal with HABIT, agreeing to set themself on fire in exchange for #70's release. However, #00 still refused to budge. Finally, Amrett 2 intervened, confronting #00 in a call; after some coaxing, #00 finally relented. The video was sent out sometime after midnight, February 17; #70 was released on the evening of that same day. He told the Rabbits about his plight (what little he could remember), and tried to use his medical knowledge to help #99 treat their burns.

### Elimination and Death

Less than a month after #70 was freed from captivity, he failed to turn in his own Trial Five assignment on time. Upon learning of his impending elimination, #70 sent #99 a private message, telling them to let #157 and #130 know that he was sorry for failing to make it to the end of the tournament. After saying his final words in the Dwarf chat ― including a "fuck you" to HABIT ―#70 was removed from the chat and eliminated.

HABIT was enraged that #70 would be so stupid as to throw his life away over a missed trial (especially after having been tortured over similar behavior from #00) and made sure to give him a most gruesome death; while the exact nature of his death wasn't revealed, HABIT told the Dwarfs that he made #70 into "A SKIN PIZZA" (implying that he skinned him alive, or possible left him as a pile of skin and red mush).

#70's number was among those entered into the Hidden Ones chat before Corenthal reset the timeline, ensuring that he would be alive in the new version of history.

## Personality

#70 was bright and outspoken, with a slightly odd sense of humor that helped him fit in easily with the other Rabbits (regardless of division).

## Abilities

#70 was highly adept at observing and analyzing others (in both a medical sense and as a hobby). He claimed that he used his skills not to his personal advantage, but out of sheer curiosity. (However, he did use them to his benefit when dealing with #00 and HABIT).

#70 frequently volunteered his medical knowledge to help the Rabbits treat the various injuries they acquired in the Tournament (as they were prohibited from seeking outside medical help). He was especially helpful when Rabbit #130 was wounded in a fight with the Rake, and helping Rabbit #99 after they set themself on fire.

## Relationships

### **Rabbit #130**

#70 and #130 became close friends during #70's days as an Lop. They remained as such after #70 moved divisions, disobeying orders from HABIT to talk on Skype and via Tumblr. He promised #130 that they would make it through the tournament together, no matter what. After he was eliminated (and his death was certain), he told HABIT to tell #130 he was sorry for failing to fulfill his promise.
