AstroChara (formerly known as EarthlySolar) is a player. In Nations 2 they were responsible for some public service projects and were a vocal supporter of community events. Their works include the creation and development of Adventure Town, the construction of the Double Monument Raid Base Camp, as well as the Settlement on the Nether roof. In Nations 4, they were responsible for the construction of the Minami City.

## History in Nations 2

AstroChara is one of the earliest members of Nations 2, although their history is interrupted by several breaks when they either became completely absent or joined rarely.

### Historic Era

AstroChara, then known as EarthlySolar, joined the server on 22 April 2020, at 16:04 UTC.

#### Early Days

*"It feels like everyone is already going interstellar while I'm still launching bottle rockets."* - EarthlySolar on their second day in the server, lamenting their lack of progress compared to many other players at the time.

On their first day on the server, EarthlySolar sought refuge in a cave under Sendineism's castle construction site, in what is now Sendineiopolis. The next day, they traveled south towards the stronghold that JimmyHelp discovered earlier, with plans for their own town in mind. Over the next month, they worked on establishing their permanent settlement, Adventure Town.

During these formative days, EarthlySolar participated in several community events. On 26 April 2020, they played a minor role in Nations 2's first community Raid event, where they got killed by vindicators twice. On 28 April 2020, the Double Monument Raid event was held. EarthlySolar took it upon themselves to brew some potions, as well as construct a small base in the middle of the Northern Ocean, which they dubbed the Double Monument Base Camp, and brought some cows to populate it. One cow was then brought to the monument during the event in order to provide milk to cure the Elder Guardians' Mining Fatigue. EarthlySolar themselves mostly stayed away from the fight, working as a support from the sidelines; their single attempt to raid the monument failed, and they were killed.

EarthlySolar was an explorer in the early days of Nations 2, and set out on several oceanic expeditions southwest of Adventure Town, although they mostly stopped by the end of the server's first month or so.

While helping with lighting up Odinlond's underground on 24 April 2020, they accidentally shot Ragnorakkr\_ to death, much to both sides' amusement. This was their first player kill.

#### The First Ender Dragon Fight

*"The dragon egg is now in the summit"* - EarthlySolar on 4 May 2020, announcing the placement of the dragon egg.

After many delays, the Ender dragon fight was finally commenced on 4 May 2020. EarthlySolar participated in the event, becoming the first person to utter a word in the End ("srew ppl", on 16:32 UTC), as well as the first casualty in the End, being slain by an Enderman around a minute into the fight. After the fight ended, EarthlySolar proceeded to join the exploration rush in the Outer End islands, where they became the first to reach an End ship and obtain an elytra, although they later returned it to Ragnorakkr\_, who reached the End City in question first.

EarthlySolar was the person who brought the Dragon Egg to the summit. The egg was stolen six hours later by BalorFomorian, whose attempt to dupe the egg failed, resulting in the loss of the original egg. This severely damaged EarthlySolar's opinion on BalorFomorian, culminating in the latter getting killed twice by the former on 6 May 2020 while attempting to seek refuge in Adventure Town.

On 8 May 2020, EarthlySolar's interest in the server waned as they became occupied with another game, and after that day, they went inactive.

### Expansionist Era

EarthlySolar left their first hiatus on 19 August 2020, but their inventory was resetted, and fhogan763 wouldn't restore it until 10 October 2020.

One of the first things they did once they got their inventory back was to visit the double monument base camp, where they discovered that the sponge they placed as a trophy was stolen, and replaced with a sign that said 'gays bad'. They also helped out with woakey's new colony Mauvania. In the process they angered Lord\_Gikuk by stealing two villagers from the village that Citrustan claimed for future developments, which eventually led to the partition of the Northern Ocean by the three nations.

On 16 October 2020, EarthlySolar changed their name to AstroChara.

### Belligerent Era

AstroChara was completely inactive during the early Belligerent Era. However, the town they built, Adventure Town, was important to the events of the time period.

### Post-Belligerent Era

The next time they joined the server was on 12 February 2021, right in the middle of the Frozen Era. From this point on they would occasionally join to check on things that had happened while they were away, including the summit marketplace and Frostonia.

### Renaissance Era

On 25 March 2021, AstroChara logged into the server to help Gik76 with their spawn build plan. This marked a turning point in the server's activity.

On 12 April 2021, inspired by a discussion between them and Gik76 on the MCS Discord server on the day prior, they spearheaded the settlement of the Nether rooftop utilizing the portal at New London, constructing two mob spawn areas, one in Crimson Forest and another in Nether Wastes in order to gain access to mob resources (those were not as successful as hoped, as mobs rarely spawn), as well as constructing tree farms and bamboo farms. According to Gik76, they accidentally caused the Citrustani portal to also link to the Nether rooftop as well. The settlement was used as a villager breeder, as *mobGriefing* was disabled in the Overworld.

During this period, AstroChara also visited several nearby new settlements that were founded while they were away.

After 7 October 2021, AstroChara took a long break from the server, and eventually missed the final day of Nations 2.

## History in Nations 3

AstroChara joined Nations 3 on 27 November 2022. They were not very active, and quit playing after setting up a sky base near spawn and visiting a few nations.

## History in Nations 4

AstroChara is the second player to join Nations 4 right after Turtleca, at 19:58 UTC, but left due to the server opening before the agreed upon time. They eventually returned soon after anyway.

#### Early days

After a brief initial resource-gathering phase, AstroChara headed south towards one of the few cherry groves in the map to establish their settlement, which they tentatively named Minami City. In addition to the construction of their base, they also began to spread the cherry blossom trees across the rest of the plains that they had claimed, as well as lighting up the entire plains in order to spawnproof the entire region, to a few other players' amazement.

After sufficiently building up their base, AstroChara made their way back to spawn, where they constructed a shelter and a farm, as well as lighting up the general area to assist new players. This spawn area would later see additions by other players, including expanded crop farms, small cocoa and bamboo farms, and animal pens.

Towards the end of the first day of the server, AstroChara rescued two allays from the pillager outpost. Fearing their extinction, they began to work on acquiring resources required to duplicate these allays, most importantly the music disc, which costed them three lives before they finally obtain their first music disc in Nations 4: *stal* (they would later acquire *cat* and *13*). With Ragtime\_Gal\_'s donation of amethyst shards, they finally succeeded at duplicating the allays, and six were transferred to New Odinlond as a display of gratitude.

## Relations

AstroChara's relation with other players is usually either neutral or positive, thanks to a combination of their tendency to ignore politics when interacting with other players, as well as how their various breaks coincidentally brought them away from some of the most polarizing periods on the server such as the Central Union vs Solisterran Opposition period. They generally have a better opinion on players with whom they've been interacting with for longer.

woakey: **Neutral**. Once, EarthlySolar tagged along on woakey's boat while the latter was sailing to the savanna to the north in order to obtain some acacia wood. Towards the end of Nations 2, AstroChara began to increasingly view woakey as an egocentric and irritating individual. By the beginning of Nations 4 AstroChara no longer has a strong opinion on them.

TheRedSwordsman: **Positive**. AstroChara had no idea about the things TheRedSwordsman did while they were away, and thus their opinion on the latter did not change. AstroChara sees them as an island of sanity in the server's cast of erratic players.

Gik76: **Positive**. During the Renaissance Era, AstroChara occasionally helps Gik76 out on some of their projects, usually by providing materials.

Ragtime\_Gal\_: **Positive**. The two did not have much interaction during Nations 2, although AstroChara sometimes visit Odinlond. Starting from Nations 4, the two are friendly with each other.

BalorFomorian: **Negative**. Originally AstroChara and BalorFomorian had a more neutral relationship. Once, the two made a deal where AstroChara would share the coordinates of a pillager outpost they had discovered so BalorFomorian could construct a raid farm, in exchange for a fraction of the output. However, after the dragon egg duping incident, AstroChara became wary and hostile to BalorFomorian, leading to the former killing the latter twice from trespassing their house in Adventure Town. BalorFomorian was apparently banned for a different reason while AstroChara was inactive. AstroChara later paid a visited BalorFomorian's former base.

Dragon\_Warrior\_: **Neutral**. Initially AstroChara saw Dragon\_Warrior\_'s nation Infernal Slayers with distrust and concern, a sentiment shared with most other players in Interpolis and Citrustan, and even briefly went along with Sendineism's plan to invade the Infernal Slayers' main base. They went inactive soon after, however, and when they returned, the crisis was already over. AstroChara admires Dragon\_Warrior\_'s PvP skills.

melplaysmc: **Neutral**. Aside from one summit event, AstroChara never interacted with melplaysmc, and the former became inactive before the latter became notorious. Therefore, AstroChara never had a chance to form a strong opinion of them.

RocketTwitch: **Neutral**. The two didn't interact much, although AstroChara dislike RocketTwitch's hardline capitalist stance.

Daymaster: **Neutral**. AstroChara was invited to visit Frostonia by Daymaster once.

Downfall21: **Neutral**. The two have little interactions beside greeting each other and AstroChara attempting to prevent Downfall21 from spawning a wither in Citrucity, which earned the former some soul sand blocks.

YTBlueLithium: **Slightly positive**. AstroChara was disapproval of their choice of settlement location, but their assistance in AstroChara's quest to obtain a new mending villager following the villager purge caused AstroChara to begin viewing them in a more positive light.

## Trivia
