### **The Benevolent Dictator**

Luna Prey is the head administrator of sociopath-community.com and frequent user of her own website. She is very public in her executive actions, creating many threads about the slightest tweak in the coding of the site, banned user, and fart from her holy anus. Luna projects the image of a kind of giving leader, and created features on her website in attempts to put out this image.The most notable example of this is her turning sociopath-community into a Republic. The end result of this push for democracy was a brand new political philosophy known as **Lunatism.** This philosophy, like a Republic, elects representatives but unlike a more traditional model, the Republic functions as merely a glorified feedback button with the added "game" of elections with no checks and balances whatsoever. Aside this, Luna still presents herself as benevolent.

### **The Luna Cycle**

There is a well established trend that Luna follows in her interactions with users of her own website. At the start of the cycle, Luna introduces a brand new change to the website, or bans a user she does not like. Whether or not this new change is good, her troll user-base will brutally lambast every flaw in it and aggressively push for her to accommodate their preferences. At first, Luna will civilly defend her change to the website and attempt to justify it. The critics will push back even harder, and attempt to antagonize Luna into anger. This always works, and over time Luna will act out in anger, even modifying the new feature or action to punish those who criticized parts or all of it; ironically ruining the new feature she set out to promote in the first place. In turn the users will criticize her even more brutally until she ultimately reaches a tipping point and goes on a banning spree, resulting in massive fallout from her own community. Instead of staying to be crucified, Luna will then take a vacation from her website, and return anywhere from a week to a month later to start the cycle all over again.

### **Vengeful Anime Girl**

While Luna's avatar is that of a blue and divine anime fairy, her temperament is more that of an angry screaming Japanese man. It is very easy to anger Luna, and one can almost envision the angry typing with the racing red background as she screams "BANNED!" in incomprehensible Japanese.

### **Survival Of The Fittest**

As a proud homo-sapien, Luna goes on frequent rants about how humans are like animals, and there is a large collection of quotes from her made on this subject. She has stated on some occasions that she sees her users as experimental objects whom she uses to study the brutality of human nature. Ironically, she has became a subject of study herself from users that share this very inquisitiveness. It is unclear what her ultimate goal in having this website is, but it is clear that her goal is somewhere in the realm of sociology, attention seeking, and making a name for herself... evidenced by her consistent site development despite conflicts with users, statements on how she sees her users, bragging about website traffic, rants on human nature, and her level of being hands-on with the interactions on her website.

### **Puppet On A String**

Despite appearing to be the person with the absolute influence over the website, Luna is in actuality owned by shadowy actors above her in the social ladder (above the realm of the internet) and subsequently pays her off to prevent her from doing acts against their will. When users speak the truth on this matter, Luna comes up with new and interesting excuses to ban them and turns the tides for the website to act against them. A recent example is when a sociopath-community user made a post implying the truth about Luna's sphere of control and the website shortly went down for maintenance.

**The Fall Of Luna**

Unfortunately for SC's queen of hearts, it could never last. Her bipolar alternation between software construction and calling for feedback, then screaming "off with their heads" upon recieving said feedback was a perfect storm for an inner mutiny to brew and boil over. Little did she know, this was not an operation of brute force but rather, a coaxing towards self sabotage. Together, a team of loosely affiliated former (demodded) moderators, loud critics, spammers, and agitators made it their goal to worm their way into her psyche. It followed a simple pattern of provoke-criticize-double down, rinse/repeat. TPG would spam, Luna would put him in timeout, Xadem (interior minister of public outrage) would criticize her loudly, Cawk and Jim would post illegal content and make puppets. All this finely tuned machinery to stoke her temper created a hostile sentiment Luna could not handle and eventually, she cracked and deleted her own creation.

**Blights Of The Old Republic**

Despite her own ragequit and the creation of a new SC by user "Good", Luna decided to attempt to undo her damages by employing a catalyst in BohemianRhapsody, an SC user that was not as overtly against her. Branding this new "Republic" as a haven for intellectuals and promising him a top mod position, it went public and, surprisingly some people joined. Unfortunately, Luna was not taking it seriously and she quickly blew it up on the slightest hint of criticism. She later revived it again, but was met with ridicule.
