Downfall21

Downfall's default "crusader" skin

Frostonia (formerly)

Interpolis (formerly)

Downfall21 is an Asgardian citizen, was the de facto leader (or "king") of Frostonia, and is known for playing a large role in the disbanding of the Central Union, and the supposed betrayal of multiple nations in the process.

## History

Downfall21 was fairly inactive until November 2020, in which he founded the settlement of the "Frosty Hideaway" alongside trusted ally Daymaster. He started taking an interest in disc farming around this time.

### Expansionist Era

#### *Beginnings & Festival Prep*

Downfall21 and Daymaster started their conquest for power over the server almost immediately. They made intricate plans with MrDragonWarrior and the Infernal Slayers to organize a "McMuffin Festival," in which pumpkin pies would've been given out to all participants at a summit meeting before a great massacre began. It is said this would've involved heavy use of strength potions and TNT.

Downfall21 also began developing savings for his nation's future, even opening a shop in which he sold stew and music discs. This shop is famous for housing a purely magical being known as the "Fox Barista," who Downfall would later on hire. The shop has also become a sort of neutral spot in recent times, where no one person harms another in the name of warfare, at least within the café grounds.

They both thought this festival would bring about the end of large nations like Interpolis or Citrustan. MrDragonWarrior eventually noticed the childish nature of the plan, and opted for a more traditional route: declaring war on Interpolis specifically.

### Belligerent Era

#### *Infernal War*

Downfall21 did not participate much in the Infernal War; however, Frostonia ended up defecting to Interpolis. He became a dual citizen of Interpolis temporarily as a result of this.

He partook in a 1v1 against MrDragonWarrior after the first and only battle of the conflict, in which he suffered one canonical death alongside allies TheRedSwordsman, AncientSnail and Sendineism. MrDragonWarrior also stole one of his belongings, although it was later given back without worry. This resulted in a strong, almost irrational fear of warfare, a fear that would later be reflected during the fall of the Central Union.

#### *End of the Central Union*

As tensions seemed to die down between nations, the Central Union slowly grew more prominent. For some time, Downfall21 disliked the CU, becoming a spy for the rebel faction of Solisterra, Daymaster occasionally providing him information exclusive to his leader status. This kicked off Downfall21's resentment of politics, as well as a temporary distaste for individuals like MrDragonWarrior and Daymaster, thoughts that he would have a harder time pushing away as the days went by.

Downfall's mental state started to wane as war seemed imminent between the two alliances. Hunting an excessive amount of wither skeletons for sport, turning his disc shop/café into an armory, starting a cult around the mysterious Wither boss and getting into constant fights with Daymaster were notable instances of lunacy starting to creep into his mind. This culminated in MrDragonWarrior's war preparation reveals, to which Downfall21 responded by leaking all plans of the Solisterra Opposition to TheRedSwordsman, uncrowned leader of the CU at the time.

He managed to put on the facade of his former, more innocent self later on, in an attempt to resolve the conflict. This resulted in the temporary abandonment of politics as a concept and pushing the server into the Post-Belligerent Dormancy. The night after the conflict's end, him and Daymaster could be seen dancing to the music disc Mall in his shop, with Daymaster's pet dog, Doge, being the lone witness of their brief peace.

### Renaissance Era

#### *Growth of Frostonia*

Downfall21 aided Daymaster heavily in the development of his nation and their home, helping to bring in players like MrDragonWarrior and SuperCharged78, even attempting to "assert Frostonian dominance" around the server. He pushed woakey and MrDragonWarrior towards helping in an invasion of New London that he and Daymaster planned against TheRedSwordsman, which was eventually cancelled due to the latter's decision that Red was a "bug" and "too weak to be prey."

#### *King of Frostonia*

Around this time, Downfall21 accidentally killed his longtime pet horse, Pepperidge, which had been kidnapped and taken high up the Frostonian lookout tower by Fhogan763. This was another big blow for him. He has since been seen building shrines in the Nether with unknown intent, and has had an influx of overly bloodthirsty or risqué remarks. He also brought a mysterious dragon egg to Frostonia one night, claiming it as a pet of him and Daymaster.

On April 12th, 2021, Downfall21 was given the title of Collective Leader over Frostonia. His relationship with TheRedSwordsman started to rapidly worsen. Due to Downfall's seeming incompetence as leader, tensions rose to the point of cold war between his nation and Citrustan.

#### *Londongrad War*

Daymaster and woakey started planning a real war against Citrustan. Downfall21 disapproved of this somewhat, which led to a confrontation on the 19th, in which Daymaster forcefully took back the rank of Collective Leader and kicked him out of the nation he used to lead. Downfall then became a sort of hitman and weapons dealer. If people paid him handsomely enough, he could've supplied them--or taken out their enemies--in times of great political turmoil and/or warfare.

Things did not go according to plan, and soon war unexpectedly broke out between a defecting woakey and Citrustan. Downfall teased participants of the war due to its nature. A while after the fallout, he joined Asgard.

## Relations

Downfall21 shows an open care and appreciation for Daymaster above all other server players, always sticking by his side in some way. Even a mutual love for one another was present at one point. The two initially planned to get married at the summit during the Infernal War, before deciding marriage is "cringe."

Downfall21 has adapted a rather apathetic world view recently. He does not care for nations nor politics, not even people at times. He has always tried his chances with fortune, and his recent, somewhat failed war profiteering business was the latest challenger to his status as a poor man.

## Trivia

* Daymaster has claimed that Downfall21 is a skilled necromancer. Daymaster also believes that the discontinued "Holly Jolly" gag is part of the lore, which would effectively canonize Downfall21's necromantic skills and a pre-server past between him, Daymaster, and Sendineism; however, there is very little, if any, evidence for this claim.

* Downfall21's Internet persona originates from a fictitious colony known as "Elsewhere," his Discord profile picture implying Elsewhere is located somewhere snowy and mountainous.
* Downfall21 prefers the Fabric mod loader over Curseforge.
