Changes to Things that don't make sense
2026-11-09 21:57 UTC by Lore Keeper import — Imported from the Obsidian vault
+ # Things that don't make sense
+
+ This is a list of places where the lore, as written in the server, disagrees with itself, leaves something out, or doesn't add up. It was put together by reading the lore channels (about 29,000 messages) and writing down every conflict found.
+
+ **How to read it**
+
+ - Each item says **what is written** (with where and when) and **why it doesn't fit**. Nothing here decides which version is right. That is for the people who wrote the lore.
+ - Sources look like *(#history, therek0_0, 2026-07-08)*: channel, who posted, date posted. The date is when the message was posted, not an in-story year.
+ - Dates in the episode tracker ("On: June 12th 2022") are the real-world days each episode was played, not in-story years. In-story years come only from #history's timeline, #character-quotes, #timeline and the news posts.
+ - Several items are not mistakes: the server has alternate universes on purpose (Opposite Day, Postapasta, r63, Nonpeloshia, a Wild West universe, a Medieval one, "The Darkest Hour"). Where something is explicitly in another universe it is marked, so it isn't mistaken for a conflict.
+ - Where a line starts with **My reading**, it is an inference, not something the server says.
+ - The questions at the end are the ones I could not settle from the text.
+
+ **Settled by the server owner (2026-11-10).** Items marked **Settled** below were answered by the owner and are now treated as fact.
+
+ | Question | Answer |
+ |---|---|
+ | W A R D | The eyeballs. "Word" in the Pyres story is a typo. Ellie Daward is a real person's gamertag. |
+ | MW | Stands for Manga Weaboo; they/them. |
+ | Akira and Akura | Two separate characters. |
+ | Bob, Bobison, Bobby | One person. |
+ | Peyton, Butler, Stanley | One person with three personalities: Stanley (crazy, Plague), Peyton (smart, Death), Butler (brute, War). |
+ | Surnames | Lyn Atana; Blaze and Rango Azicory. |
+ | Medieval universe | Separate from the modern one, branching from when Rango sacrificed himself. Peska and Outer Peloshia are medieval-like places in the main universe. |
+ | The Officials | They are the gods, named after the players and then surpassed by the players' characters. |
+ | Cocoethes | A group of multiverse-traveling pirates whose goal is to annihilate every universe. |
+ | The sword | The Sword of Misery; the other names are a running joke. |
+ | Peloshia | On a new landmass in the Pacific Ocean. |
+ | Cleansing | It was the Ludus attack. |
+ | Satamachi | Two years older than Iyasu. |
+ | News posts | The story's future or current status. |
+ | Peska | A country. |
+ | Arc order | Time-based, oldest first (see the Arc order page). |
+ | Dave | A joke character made by Flimbxy. |
+ | The Joones | All blood related somehow. |
+ | Held-back channels | Published. |
+
+ [TOC]
+
+ ## 1. Dates and timelines
+
+ ### 1.1 Born after 1979, but already talking in 1980
+
+ **Partly settled:** Satamachi is two years older than Iyasu. The year of birth is still open.
+
+ - *#timeline* (story list, 2022-03-21): "Boris gets assassinated making Alexi Tsar", followed directly by "Satamaci and Iyasu are born". The #history timeline dates Boris's assassination to **1979**.
+ - *#character-quotes*: Satamachi is quoted in **1980**, **1981**, **1984** and **1987** ("It's always the best students who disappoint you the most", 1987). *#history* timeline: "1984: Katt dies, Satamachi becomes Sordo of Paromatica".
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** if the #timeline list is in order, Satamachi and Iyasu were born in 1979 or later, which makes Satamachi at most a year old when quoted in 1980 and about five when he became Sordo. **My reading:** the #timeline list is not strictly in order (events such as "1952 the icuras project completed" are slotted in later), so this may only be a list-order problem.
+
+ ### 1.2 The two timelines put the same events in a different order
+
+ | Event | #timeline (story list, 2022-03-21) | #history timeline (2026-07-08) |
+ |---|---|---|
+ | Chairville bombed / Chairville Crisis | after "WW3 starts" | **1946**, before WW3 (1958-1966) |
+ | Cat becomes swordess | after Chairville, before "WW3 ends" | **1948** (Katt becomes Sordess of Paromatica) |
+ | Paromatica declares independence from Velonia | after "WW3 ends" | **1944** |
+ | Blitalia broke away from the Soviet Union | after the moon landing | **1943**; the moon landing is 1955 |
+
+ **Why it doesn't fit:** the same events come out up to two decades apart depending on which list is used. **My reading:** "chairville bombed" and the "Chairville Crisis" are taken to be the same event.
+
+ ### 1.3 The first nuclear weapons
+
+ - "If anyone knows what year it was when Wako invented nukes": answers **"1954?"** and **"1943"** *(#story-general, 2022-03-01)*.
+ - *#history* timeline: **"1942: First nukes are made"**, "1941: Wacko arrives". *#character-quotes*: Wacko "probably 1942" and Wacko 1943.
+ - Also: "Hermunt Gilder creates the first Nuclear reactor: 1831" and "wako invents nuclear weapons at 16" *(#timeline)*.
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** three different years (1942, 1943, 1954).
+
+ ### 1.4 The Legionary Church
+
+ - *#history* (therek0_0, 2026-04-11): the post is titled **"The Legionary Church 1802-1994"**.
+ - The timeline says **"Legionary Church Founded: 1752"** and "Volerian Uprising: 1752-1756", and **"1993: Legion of the Rapture take control of Voleria"**.
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** founded 1752 vs a title that starts it at 1802; and 1994 as the end date, one year after the Legion takes control of Voleria.
+
+ ### 1.5 "Cleansing": 1983 or 1985, and is it the Ludus attack?
+
+ **Settled:** the Cleansing was the Ludus attack. The year (1983 or 1985) is still open, and Grimmy is still listed dead in it while appearing afterwards.
+
+ - Church text: **"Ludus's cleansings in 1983"**, then the Cocoethese invasion in 1988. Timeline: **"1985: The Great Cleansing"**.
+ - *#graveyard* (2024-11-27): "Characters that died during the Cleansing: Bobison, Grimmy, Mowzyn, Myishu, Primmum Deli Guy". Tracker (Graduation of the Fated Ep 7): "Mowzyn died in the Ludus attack".
+ - Spirit World Ep 9 (played 2024-11-27): Ludus removes the sun; "2 billion people died btw".
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** two years for the cleansing. **My reading:** the Cleansing and the Ludus attack are the same event, since both list Mowzyn's death. If so, **Grimmy** is listed as dead in the Cleansing but appears alive in Graduation of the Fated Ep 2 (2024-12-02) and Ep 9 (2025-01-19).
+
+ ### 1.6 Harnesters before and after 1975
+
+ - The timeline has **"Pre Harnester Era: 1945-1975"** and **"Harnester Era: 1975-1988"**, with "1975: Andromeda meteorite brings more skillsets to Earth".
+ - The Century of Fire post (therek0_0, 2026-03-01) says that in **1150-1250** "many mortals unlocked their skillsets", that 15 of the 20 demigods ever born were born then, and that the era had "the most powerful harnesters in human history matched only by the modern era".
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** harnesters are placed in the 12th century and also "before the harnester era". "More skillsets" in 1975 suggests some already existed.
+
+ ### 1.7 Blitalia's empire ends twice
+
+ - "Blitalian Empire: **1204ce-1546ce**"; later "Mt Ivar Erupts, **Eastern Blitalian Empire is whipped out: 1557ce**" *(#history timeline)*.
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** an eastern part of the empire is destroyed 11 years after the empire's end date.
+
+ ### 1.8 Blitalia and the Soviet Union
+
+ - *#news* (therek0_0, 2026-03-06): "**May 10th 1989** marks the **20th anniversary of the Treaty of Moscow**, the treaty that ended in a Blitalian victory against the Soviet Union and the start of Blitalian occupation over Soviet Territories... referendums across the territories will be held".
+ - Timeline: "**1943**: Blitalia succeeds from the USSR" and "**1996**: Former Soviet territory becomes independent".
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** Blitalia leaves the USSR in 1943, wins a treaty in 1969, and the territories vote on independence in 1989 or become independent in 1996.
+
+ ### 1.9 The Cocoethese arrive in 1988, or earlier, or later
+
+ **Partly settled:** the Cocoethes are a group of multiverse-traveling pirates who want to annihilate every universe. That may explain members being quoted in 1055 and 1678; it does not give the 1988 date or the "21 years after" date.
+
+ - Timeline: **"1988: Cocoethese Arrival"**; church text: "the Cocoethese invasion in 1988. Billions around the world were dead".
+ - *#news* (Big Oil, 2026-06-24): "**21 years after** the Cocoethes incident" the Floral Zone and Yellow Sea Crater remain, which is 2009 if the incident is 1988. Other news items are dated 2004 and 2008.
+ - Members of the group are quoted at **1055 CE** (Octingeti), **1067** (Octinghetinus) and **1678** (G E O R G E, E L L I E, R A T T E L E R) *(#character-quotes)*.
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** the name is used for an arrival in 1988, a group whose members are quoted centuries earlier, and the last arc in the arc lists.
+
+ ### 1.10 Official Rex's age
+
+ **Partly settled:** the Officials are gods named after the players. Whether a god can be "13.7bya" and crowned in 1222 is not answered.
+
+ - *#character-quotes*: "Offical Rex **13.7bya**" (13.7 billion years ago) and "Official Rex 2023".
+ - *#history* (2026-03-01): "At around **1222** the current god of creation (the Official Rex) was crowned".
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** it is not stated whether the Official Rex existed long before being crowned, or whether these are two Rexes.
+
+ ### 1.11 How long Peyton was away
+
+ **Partly settled:** Peyton, Butler and Stanley are one person with three personalities. The century, centuries and two millennia are still open.
+
+ - *#offical-lore* (Big Oil, 2022-05-21): Peyton joined "when the First World War started" (1914 per the timeline), "this has been racking up for **centuries**", and he is "waking up from his **century's** coma".
+ - *#the-offical-diary* entry 13 (2022-08-29): "It's been a **2 millennium** since he left."
+ - Entry 11 (2022-06-02): "I was **born and then died a year later**."
+ - Entry 9 (2022-02-26): "I will live till the end of time. everyone i was friends with died other than long gin".
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** a century, centuries and two thousand years are all given for the same absence; a WWI start date and "born and died a year later" are hard to combine with "live till the end of time".
+
+ ### 1.12 The sword's age
+
+ - *#history* (Big Oil, 2024-06-26): the sword was made "in **506 BDW (Before Demon War)**" by the blacksmith Remnite. Gossamer found it in 1786 and died in 1876; the tomb was found in 1981.
+ - The timeline gives the "Demon Invasion (spirit world)" as **1140 CE** and the Century of Fire as 1150-1250.
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** **My reading:** if the "great demon war" is the 1140-1250 invasion, the sword was made around 634 CE, when the timeline lists the Telnese Caliphate and several empires but no single "ruler of peloshia". The story also says "the war is finally ending" before 1786, which is more than 500 years after that invasion ended.
+
+ ### 1.13 Pyres, the dinosaurs and Peloshia's age
+
+ - *#history* (Evil E, 2022-04-17): Pyres was a technology capital "before even Peliosha was born". Big Oil (2023-10-13): "Fig was na actual meteor that **killed the dinosaurs**" and the **Pyres explosion** radiated Fig and Fran until they became sentient ("In their timeline").
+ - The timeline says "Peloshia splits from Pangea: **220mya**". The dinosaur extinction is about 66 million years ago. Pyres has no date and is not in the timeline.
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** an explosion in a country that predates Peloshia irradiates a meteor from tens of millions of years ago. "In their timeline" suggests another timeline, but it isn't named.
+
+ ### 1.14 Velonia's unification
+
+ - *#history* timeline: "Velonian declaration of unity: **1745**" is listed under the Colonial Era (to 1745), while the "Velonian War of Independence" runs **1743-1750**, and "Rise of Velonia" starts 1750.
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** unity is declared in the middle of the war that is supposed to produce it.
+
+ ### 1.15 Two Paromatican wars on Velonia, and the real-world dates in the news
+
+ **Settled:** the news posts are the story's future or current status, and #maps says the story is at 1988 with a time skip to 2008.
+
+ - *#news* items carry in-story dates of **1989, 1991, 1992, 2000, 2004, 2008**, while the #history timeline ends at 2003 and quotes end at 1987.
+ - *#news*, #war (2025): "Paromatica has declared war on Velonia and Calculia" (2025-07-21), "Battle of Arine" (2025-07-27). The timeline has the "Paromatic Sea War (Stalemate) 1987-1988".
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** it is not clear whether the 2025 posts are the same period as the 1980s story or a later one.
+
+ ### 1.16 Lon Gin and Roz in the 1985 election list
+
+ - *#elections* (2022-02-16): the 1985 Velonian PM candidates include **Roz** (Conservative) and **Lon Gin** (Leftist Alliance).
+ - *#news* (2022-11-01): "Due to the **disappearance of Roz** another prime minister election is going to be held in **December of 1981**". *#news* (2023-06-21): "On **June 1st 1985** Roz was killed by the people." The 1982 election was won by Moe Johnston.
+ - Lon Gin: "RIP Lon Gin" (Civil War Ep 9, played 2024-01-01) and "Blytalia has shot artillery at fire island killing... Lon Gin" (#news, 2024-01-07). **My reading:** the Civil War arc is the 1982-84 Paromatican civil war.
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** Roz is a 1985 candidate after vanishing in 1981 and before being killed in June 1985; Lon Gin is a 1985 candidate after dying in the civil war. The 1985 list may simply predate those events.
+
+ ### 1.17 The academy, 1997 or the 1980s
+
+ - Timeline: "1989: Construction of Iyasua starts", "**1997: Iyasua Harnester academy is established**".
+ - Graduation of the Fated (tracker, played Nov 2024 - Feb 2025) has students in dorms in their "4th year", Tenmachi members as classmates, and Satamachi is quoted about "students" in 1987.
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** a school with Tenmachi students exists before the Tenmachi's 1987 attack, ten years before the academy is established. **My reading:** it may be a different school in Arine.
+
+ ### 1.18 The map history list (#maps, 2025-12-09) against the timeline
+
+ *#maps* (therek0_0, 2025-12-09) has its own history notes. Compared with the #history timeline:
+
+ | Event | #maps | #history timeline or other |
+ |---|---|---|
+ | Blitalia (as "BSSR") leaves the USSR | 1939 | 1943; Treaty of Moscow 1969 (#news) |
+ | BSSR becomes Blitalia | 1958 | the timeline already says "Blitalia" in 1943 |
+ | Paromatica declares independence from Velonia | in the 1941 notes | 1944 |
+ | Teln annexed | by BSSR, Treaty of Actuss, 1945 | "Blitalia annexes Teln 1948" |
+ | Chairville ceded to Paromatica "after the Chairville crisis" | in the 1945 notes | the Chairville Crisis is 1946 |
+ | Republic of Charity established | 1985 | "Charity Gains Independence from Paromatica: 1986" |
+ | Paromatica gets Fort Chilocothy and Southern Actussia (Treaty of Castillia, after the "Pinopeloshian War") | 1988 | "1998: Actussia conquers Paromatica" |
+ | "Nothing Family is overthrown" | 1984 | 1984 is when Katt dies and Satamachi becomes Sordo; Sundrie "takes power" in #timeline |
+ | "Second Velonian Civil War" | 1992-2003 | not in the timeline; neither is the "Pinopeloshian War" |
+
+ **Settled:** therek0_0 wrote that the story is at **1988 now and the time skip will make it 2008** (#maps, 2026-02-17). That puts the news posts dated 1989-2008 in the story's future, which matches your answer.
+
+ ## 2. Numbers that don't add up
+
+ ### 2.1 The Azicory children
+
+ - *#history* (Big Oil, 2026-03-19): "To this day there are **Sixteen Kids** with the Azicory family name." Listed: Bayville 2, Chicago 3, Toronto 1, Outer Pelosha 4, Paris 3, Antarctica 1, Rio De Janeiro 2, Ireland 1.
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** those add up to **17**.
+
+ ### 2.2 The census percentages
+
+ *#peloshian-census* (therek0_0, 2023-03-22), "Each Region Ranked" out of 1,870 buildings:
+
+ | Region | Buildings | Listed | Actual |
+ |---|---|---|---|
+ | Central Megaregion | 585 | 31.18% | **31.28%** |
+ | Paromatic Coastal Area | 334 | 17.92% | **17.86%** |
+ | Pinopelan Hertland | 319 | 17.86% | **17.06%** |
+
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** three of the six percentages are off, and the listed percentages add up to 100.76%. The building counts do add up to 1,870, and the country table (2022-12-06) is correct.
+
+ ### 2.3 The Froglin
+
+ - *#news* (Apple Jimmy, 2026-03-28): "1 USD = 10 Froglins, to now being **620,000 Froglins = 1 USD (62,000% Increase)**." Also: "Average water bottle runs at **1.25 USD, or 77,500F**".
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** 10 to 620,000 is 62,000 times, a 6,199,900% increase; a 62,000% increase would be about 6,210 Froglins. And 1.25 USD at 620,000 Froglins is **775,000F**, not 77,500F.
+
+ ### 2.4 The appearance tracker
+
+ - *#story-general* (Big Oil, 2023-11-26): headed "Most shown to least", it uses the number **87 twice** (Moyai, Mr Bontu) so the 101 numbers hold **102 names**.
+ - **Rank 17** Doug Dimadome has 7 episodes but sits above **rank 18** Nick with 8; ranks 33 and 34 (Mai, Mowzyn) have 4 episodes but sit above rank 35 (Panda) with 5.
+ - On 2024-10-16 Evil E said "nobody's name starts with a q, x or u", yet **Umuli** appears in the Hydra list of 2025-07-31.
+
+ ### 2.5 The tiering system overlaps and jumps
+
+ - *#story-general* (therek0_0, 2026-04-11), Harnester Tiering: **A tier: 15-17** and **S tier: 17+**, so 17 is in both.
+ - Damage scale tops out at "Universal (20)", described "power can warp reality". The effect scale goes "Minor Reality Warper (9)" then "**Reality Warper (20)**", also "can warp reality". All other steps rise by 1 or 2.
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** the top tier is ambiguous, and the two top values have the same description.
+
+ ### 2.6 Ability stats are meant to run 0 to 100
+
+ - *#skillset-or-ability-descriptions* format post (therek0_0, 2022-08-02): each stat is "(0-100)". Big Oil: "It's seems that they all only go to 100."
+ - But Inertia and Folsom Prison Blues have an Effective Time of infinity, Rock n' roll McDonalds has an Ability Power of infinity, and **Timeless Highway** (Rango) has infinity for all five stats.
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** values outside the scale it declares.
+
+ ### 2.7 The Hydra lists
+
+ **Note:** the Cocoethes are pirates who travel between universes; how Hydra relates to them is still open.
+
+ - *#story-general* (therek0_0): **25 names** on 2025-07-31, **16 names** on 2026-03-02. Missing from the later list: Karma, Ivan, Tony, Nate, Krema, Sadra, Lee, Red, Gama.
+ - Karma, Lee, Sadra and Tony are in #graveyard on 2025-11-12. The others are not explained.
+ - Also: Rango is described as joining the Cocoethes (2024-10-16) and is listed in Hydra; how the two groups relate is not stated.
+
+ ### 2.8 Five or six in the "Disastrous" group
+
+ - *#character-drawings* (therek0_0): "The Disastrous **Five**" (2024-01-22), "the disasterous **six**" (2024-06-12).
+ - *#news* (Big Oil, 2025-07-28): "where is the disastrous five?" and names five (Rango, Karma, Iyasu, Satamachi, Ivan). The Wild West universe has the "Disastrous Six" (Rango, Sundrie, Karma, Ivan, Satamachi, Iyasu).
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** the sixth member is only named in the Wild West list, and the five named in the news are the same five without him.
+
+ ### 2.9 The tournament
+
+ - *#tournament-arc* (2024-04-09): **17 matches** are posted, but results are posted for only **7** (Myisu, Shawty, Ry, Mary, Nero, Rosario, Mai).
+ - "Jason vs Bill Collector" but the price list has "Tax Man". "Tyleadreadoncano", "Treadoncaeno" and "Tredoncanoe" are all used. Ry Joones has two prices: 1.25 million and "(combind)" 6.3 million.
+
+ ### 2.10 The class list
+
+ - *#class-list* (therek0_0, 2026-06-14): five students (Aldrice, Zap, Nimona, Suhen, Ilora) each have classes in periods **1st, 2nd, 3rd, 5th, 6th**. There is no 4th period listed.
+
+ ### 2.11 The academy calendar
+
+ - *#story-general* (2026-07-03): Fall schedule: "**November 16th**: Admissions for Spring Trimester Open". Big Oil asks "What happens November 16th????"; Evil E: "Secret... mass murder day (upcoming)"; therek0_0: "I added it. Also that's **Christmas Eve**".
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** November 16 is not Christmas Eve. The calendar has Summer, Fall and Spring trimesters but a "Winter Break". The Summer one is titled "Iyasu Harnester" while the Fall one says "Iyasua Harnester". "October 10th: Velonian Independence Day" is not dated anywhere else (the timeline has 1743-1750).
+
+ ### 2.12 The sticker shop translations
+
+ - *#offical-lore* (Apple Jimmy, 2026-10-26): "Daward's Sticker Shop in 91 different languages". There are 91.
+ - #22 is labelled "France" (a country, not a language); #30 is "Hindu" (a religion; the language is Hindi); #36 (Jamaican Patois) and #57 (Marshallese) are the same as English; #41 (Kituba) and #43 (Kongo) are identical to each other.
+ - The poster adds: "Not any ai btw. Only Google Translate."
+
+ ### 2.14 The bounty lists
+
+ - *#fart* (therek0_0, 2023-11-23), "Top 25 Paromatican Bounties": Karma Gin **300 million**, Satamachi Yichita **200 million**, Iyasu 250 million, Rango 250 million, Mai 200 million, Sundrie 900 million.
+ - *#tournament-arc* (2024-03-28): Karma Nothing **500 million**, Satamachi Yichata **250 million**, Iyasu 250 million, Rango 250 million, Mai 200 million.
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** Karma and Satamachi have different amounts in the two lists, and the surnames differ (see 3.9).
+
+ ### 2.13 Three country counts
+
+ - *#offical-lore* (2026-08-28): **150 countries**, 11 in Peloshia. *#peloshian-census* (2025-06-13): "(possibly) Every Country in the World", **138**. *#peloshian-census* (2025-05-18): the countries that have cities in Caho, **17**, including Official Dominion, Mystia, Hanjajas, Patch Amber Dash, Trusevia, Smidlovosk and Forge Mountain.
+ - See section 6 for which names appear in only some of them.
+
+ ## 3. The same thing with different names
+
+ ### 3.1 The sword has four names
+
+ **Settled:** the real name is the Sword of Misery; Missouri, Alabama, Rhode Island and Ohio are a running joke.
+
+ - *#history* (Big Oil, 2024-06-26): "the **sword of misery**" and later "the **sword of Alabama**".
+ - Tracker, Dirty Deeds Deals Once More Ep 5 (played 2022-07-04): Rango gets "the **Rhode Island Sword**".
+ - Tracker, Shadows of Evil Ep 7 (2024-05-21): Grossemer "had the **Sword of Ohio**".
+ - Its finder is spelled Gossamer, grossamer and Grossemer, and described as a "fallen angel" and a "fallen arcangel".
+
+ ### 3.2 MW
+
+ **Settled:** MW stands for Manga Weaboo, and MW is they/them. "Miracle Worker", "he" and "her" in the posts are then variations in the text.
+
+ - *#history* (Evil E, 2022-04-17): "a scientist who went by the name of **Miracle Worker** or MW for short". *#skillset-or-ability-descriptions* (Evil E, 2022-08-02): the ability Ostracism belongs to "**Manga Weaboo**".
+ - The Pyres story uses "they", "he" and "tall" for MW; the tracker says "MW gets **her** skillset" (DDDOM Ep 15).
+
+ ### 3.3 Lyn, Blaze, Rango and Nimona have two surnames
+
+ **Settled:** Lyn Atana; Blaze Azicory; Rango Azicory. Nimona's surname is still open.
+
+ | Character | Names used |
+ |---|---|
+ | Lyn | Lyn **Atana** ("Fell on Black Days", 2022-10-31); Lyn **Foreman** (Nagabiku, 2024-03-30; Spiraling Desolation, 2026-05-30). Satuyo and Wock are also Atanas |
+ | Blaze | Blaze **Peklo** (Power Slave, 2026-04-14); Blaze **Azicory** (#character-drawings, Big Oil, 2026-01-26) |
+ | Rango | Rango **Azicory** (#skillset, news, side story); Rango **Azukori** (#tournament-arc, 2024-03-28); "??? **Azukory**" (Blue Oyster, 2023-01-26) |
+ | Nimona | **Nimona** (#class-list); **Namona** Peklo (side story, 2026-09-14); Nimona Peklo (2026-03-30) |
+
+ - In the Medieval universe side story Blaze and Namona are twins and both are called "the kids of... Rango Azicory", while Namona introduces herself as "Namona Peklo".
+
+ ### 3.4 Akira or Akura
+
+ **Settled:** two separate characters.
+
+ - Shaken Pillars Ep 13 (played 2023-07-04): "**Akira** fucking dies".
+ - Civil War Eps 4, 5, 7, 8 and 12 (Oct 2023 - Feb 2024): **Akura** is alive, is captured, nearly dies, and "RIP Akura".
+ - The appearance tracker (2023-11-26) lists "Akira 2ep" and "Akura 2ep" separately. Akira is "her" and Akura "him".
+
+ ### 3.5 Bob, Bobison, Bobby
+
+ **Settled:** all one person.
+
+ - *#skillset*: "Guns n' Roses - **Bobision Joones**". *#timeline*: "Bob and Vwacile meet and become friends", "Bob and Ala get married". Tracker DDDOM Ep 20 lists "Bobison, Wacko" and then says "Bob and Wacko have a skillset debate". Wandering Shadow Ep 14: "Ry goes all the way to Caho to talk to **Bob**". Civil War Eps 7 and 12: "**Bobby**" makes plushies and "says goodbye".
+ - **My reading:** Bob and Bobison are the same person. Whether Bobby is the same is not stated.
+
+ ### 3.6 Peyton, Butler and Stanley
+
+ **Settled:** one person with three personalities: Stanley (crazy, Plague), Peyton (smart, Death), Butler (brute, War). Note that War and Plague are not among the five Domains described in #offical-lore.
+
+ - *#the-offical-diary* shows three voices: the Official Peyton Butler (entries 1-3), "the new and improved official peyton butler" who locked him up (entry 4), and "official Stanley... the more nerdy and more personal side" (entry 13). *#offical-lore* says he was split into "the insane and the official" who "came back together as one".
+ - The tracker has "**Butler**" as a separate character (Spirit World Ep 2, 3, 6) and "Official Peyton steps in and has an argument with himself".
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** two halves or three selves, and whether "Butler" is the insane half is never said.
+
+ ### 3.7 Daward, Word, Ward and W A R D
+
+ **Mostly settled:** W A R D is the eyeballs; "Word" is a typo; Ellie Daward is a real person's gamertag. Open: the Pyres story's line "Daward was never seen again" and Daward's Enterprises.
+
+ - *#history* (Evil E, 2022-04-17): the Pyres story names **Word** and Asobii, and ends "**Daward** was never seen again." Daward is never introduced.
+ - *#quote* (Karma, 2022-08-09): "**Ellie Daward**". *#offical-lore*: Daward's Enterprises, Daward's Sticker Shop. The tracker's villain is **W A R D**, "just a pair of fucking eyes" (Big Oil, 2023-12-27); "Ward 1980" is quoted.
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** it is not stated whether Word, Daward, Ward, W A R D and Ellie Daward are one entity.
+
+ ### 3.8 Other spellings
+
+ - **Octengeti**: Octengeti, Octingeti, Octinghetinus, Octinghetti, Octintavius Mathrolan, O C T E N G E T I.
+ - **Cocoethese**: Cocoethes, Cocoethese, Cacoethes, "Conshelltwotees".
+ - **Cat**: Cat, Kat, Katt (and Swordess/Swordo/Sordess/Sordo).
+ - **Blitalia's rulers**: Sokolov/Sokalov; Alexi/Alexei; Vwacile/Vwacele.
+ - **Places**: Monte Clou/Cloue/Clau; Neusenhaven/Nuesenhaven; Belsbee/Bellsbee/Beslbee; Fort Chilocothy/Chilicoth/Chillicothe; Castillia/Castelia; Santulanan/Santulannan; Paromatica/Paramatica/Paromatic.
+ - **Others**: Dr Pearson/Dr Person; Mowzyn/Mowyzn; Invictus/Inviticus; Doug Dimadome/Dimmadome/Dimathrone; Mohini and Mowzyn Sharma.
+
+ ### 3.9 More full names in the bounty list
+
+ *#fart* (2023-11-23) gives full names that differ from the ones elsewhere:
+
+ | In the bounty list | Elsewhere |
+ |---|---|
+ | Karma **Gin** | Karma **Nothing** (#tournament-arc) |
+ | Antonio **Costello** | Antonio **Bernard** (#skillset) |
+ | Ivan **Petrinko** | Dimitri **Petrenko**/Ivan (#skillset) |
+ | Mikey **Fazuli** | Mikey **Boritilli** (#skillset) |
+ | Satamachi **Yichita** and Sachi **Yichita** | Satamachi **Yichata** (#tournament-arc); Gama **Yichita** is a Velonian prime minister (#news) |
+ | Cosmin **Yukni**, Keisho **Hernandez**, Akura **Sasta**, Necka **Hisuho**, Pavol **Familia** | no other full names found |
+
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** several characters have two surnames. Lon, Tong, Sai and Karma all share "Gin" in this list. Satamachi's and Sachi's surnames match, and Satamachi is also spelled Yichata.
+
+ ## 4. The same name for different things
+
+ - **Caho**: the Minecraft world (#welcome), a Velonian city, and the story's name for itself. "Caho or Monte Clou" are both listed as "established Velonian city" options (#story-general poll, 2023-07-16).
+ - **Peloshia**: the Discord server, the landmass, a seventh continent, and a speaker in #character-quotes ("Brovah - Pelioshia 126CE").
+ - **Voleria**: "British Voleria" taxed in 1705-1714 and rising in 1752-56; the country founded in 1988; the "Knights of Voleria" in the medieval universe; and the Legion's state.
+ - **Charity**: a Paromatican city, a country, and one of the seven virtues in the Spirit World.
+ - **Iyasu / Iyasua / Iyasuwa**: a character, a city and academy, and a Velonian province. The lore does not say if they are connected.

+ - **Civil War**: an arc, the Paromatican Civil War (1982-84), the Volerian rebellion, and "Velonia civil war factions".
+ - **Spirit World** and **Tenmachi** and **Cocoethese**: each is both an arc and a place or group.
+ - **Ellie**: Evil E's nickname (Big Oil: "Ellie it's been longer than a sec", 2022-02-17); the Cocoethes member **E V I L E L L I E**; **Official Ellie** ("official Ellie's mom", #official-record); and **Ellie Daward**. **Rex** is also what therek0_0 is called in chat ("It's your arc Rex", #story-general 2023-07-16).
+ - **Jack**: Jack Frost Azicory (a boy, brother of Rango, #news 2023-06-27); the 13-year-old CEO of Azicory Industries (#news 2025-01-09); "Jack is 15" (#story-general 2026-03-12); and the Jack in the Shaken Pillars tracker.
+ - **Joones**: Albert, Amanda, Bobision, Claire and Ry are all Joones, and Alan keeps the Joones house. How they are related is not stated.
+
+ ## 5. Who is who, and what is what
+
+ - **The Officials and their Domains.** **Partly settled:** the Officials are the gods, named after the players. Peyton is Death, Butler is War, Stanley is Plague. Still open: who holds Knowledge, Weather and Chaos, and whether Ludus is an Official. Five Domains are described: Death, Knowledge, Weather, Creation, Chaos (#offical-lore, 2026-08-28), "each Official holds their own". Named Officials: **Peyton**, **Rex**, **Ethan Howard**, **Ed**, "Official E / Off. E.M." and "official Ellie". Only Rex is placed (god of creation). Ludus is called "god of chaos" (#charachter-themes) yet fights the Officials. Which Official holds which Domain is not given. The Creation Domain's trial involves "the eternal judge appointed by the god of cration", which doesn't say whether the god and the Official of Creation are the same.
+ - **Cocoethes: group, event or arc?** **Partly settled:** a group of multiverse-traveling pirates (see 1.9). See 1.9. Its 2022 membership is "Ward, Evil, Luna and Tic" (#character-drawings 2022-10-31); the 2023 list is F I G, F R A N, R A T T L E R, O C T E N G E T I, G E O R G E, R A N G O, E V I L E L L I E (#story-general 2023-12-27). Luna and Tic appear nowhere else. Big Oil: "Isn't George and fig two half's of someone" (#character-drawings, 2023-01-15), and Fig and Fran are one entry in the nationality list.
+ - **Hydra vs Cocoethes.** See 2.7.
+ - **"Nothing".** "Nothing" is an energy (the power of Nothing, MW), a surname (Karma, Cat, Sundrie, Paddy, Nobody, Yulisis Nothing), a place ("Capital: Nothing", #the-darkest-hour-althist) and a percentage ("Cat is 50% nothing", "Sundrie is only 25%").
+ - **Sordo, Sordess, Swordo, Swordess, Sordodom.** Used throughout, never defined. "Sordodom of Igeria: 1100-1745" is a kingdom, while a Sordo rules Paromatica.
+ - **The eyes.** DDDOM Ep 21: W A R D "shatters into 3 eyes". Shaken Pillars Ep 5: Sundrie "gets a ward eye". Civil War Ep 1: Fin Lee fetches "the future eye". Ep 2: Rango "gets all 3 eyes". Ep 4: Kat "takes the eyes". Ep 7: Rango "rips Kat's eyes out". Shadows of Evil Ep 4: Ludus takes "a W A R D eye". The number of eyes and who holds them are not consistent.
+ - **The organisations of the demon fight.** The GDEF (a demon archive with 111, 007, 808, 012, 162), the Official Prayers (exorcists), the Harnester Council, the Peloshian Powerscaling Society and the Tenmachi are all mentioned; what GDEF stands for, who runs it and how it relates to the Official Prayers is not stated.
+ - **The demon king.** Big Oil's sword story has "a demon king" with purple eyes and a black crown; the GDEF archive has **Demon 808, "Spirit (A.K.A The King of the Demon Realm)"**; Big Oil also posted "Spiris the Angel of Chastity & Love" (#character-drawings, 2026-07-19). Whether these are the same is not stated.
+ - **Asobi Shinobi.** The Pyres story's "Asobii Shinobii" ran away (2022). In 2024 Asobi Shinobi is "she", is framed in the Spirit World, and is vaporised by Ludus (Spirit World Ep 5 and 8). Whether this is one person is not stated.
+ - **Arine.** The main city of two arcs; its location is not given, and it is not in the 2023-07-16 setting poll.
+ - **News posts.** Settled: they are the story's future or current status.
+ - **Money.** Peska: Ridens. Velonia: Palon/Pallon (also "pallens"). Voleria: "paloons". Froghorn: Froglin. The server's own list of currencies is not given.
+ - **Where Peloshia is.** **Settled:** on a new landmass in the Pacific Ocean.
+ - **"GDEF", "PPS", "AMF/PAF/MAF".** "PAF (Power alliance force, previously the MAF)" (#news 2021-07-31) is never explained further.
+
+ ## 6. Dead, alive and back again
+
+ | Who | What is written |
+ |---|---|
+ | **Deetz** | Killed by Albert (DDDOM Ep 14); Rango goes back "to kill Deetz again" (Ep 21); a "ghost Deetz" makes a deal (Civil War Ep 2); appears again in Shadows of Evil Ep 5 and 8. Listed in #graveyard (2022-11-02). |
+ | **Vai** | Killed by Guy Gieri (DDDOM Ep 6); "Vai (again)" in #graveyard. |
+ | **Guy Gieri** | Killed by Rango (DDDOM Ep 6), revived by Doug (Shaken Pillars Ep 13). |
+ | **Cosmin** | "RIP Cosmin" (Civil War Ep 12, 2024-02-15); "Cosmin is also back" (Spirit World Ep 7). |
+ | **Alotoph** | "RIP Alotoph" (Shadows of Evil Ep 8); "Alotoph is brought back" (Smokeville Ep 1). |
+ | **Rango** | Dies (Spirit World Ep 5), sent back (Ep 7). "Great and noble sacrifice" (#news 2026-03-04); "before he sacrificed himself" (#comics 2026-03-26); "Since 1990 after people found out Rango Azicory was using Skillset enhancement drugs for a while before his sacrifice" (#news 2026-07-25). Also in news on 2024-12-13 and 2025-07-28 ("We haven't seen Rango in months"). The date of the sacrifice is not given. |
+ | **Grimmy** | Listed among those who died in the Cleansing (#graveyard 2024-11-27); alive in Graduation of the Fated Ep 2 and 9. |
+ | **Akira / Akura** | See 3.4. |
+ | **Lon Gin** | See 1.16. |
+ | **Roz** | See 1.16 and the Peska timeline: Velonian PM who vanished in 1981, Peska's ruler, killed June 1985. |
+ | **Ron Berer** | Missing for over a week (#news 2025-04-13); listed in #graveyard (2025-11-12) as "Mid Bad Business". A "Ron" (Ron and Albert) is also in the Hydra duos. |
+ | **Albert's Dad / Alan** | Albert's dad is killed (DDDOM Ep 8) and "Albert's Dad (again)" is in #graveyard; Alan dies Dec 2023 (Wandering Shadow Ep 13). |
+ | **Wacko** | "RIP Wacko" (Shadows of Evil Ep 8). A 1985 candidate (#elections). "Wacko will die to W A R D" (#predictions-of-ben, 2022-11-08). |
+ | **Sachi / Satachi** | #graveyard has "Satachi" in 2022; Sachi is alive in the 2023 Civil War episodes and dies in Civil War Ep 12. Not stated if they are the same. |
+
+ **Settled:** the Medieval universe is separate from the modern one, branching from when Rango sacrificed himself, so its characters are technically not the same people as their modern namesakes.
+
+ **Not a conflict, but easy to mistake for one:** the Medieval-universe story has Blaze hunting Salem; in the modern-universe scene "Salem" (as a wolf, 2026-09-15) is sorry to have left Blaze. Big Oil marks the medieval one "(THIS IS AN ALTERNATE UNIVERSE)".
+
+ ## 7. Maps, countries and places
+
+ - **Which countries exist.** **Partly settled:** Peska is a country. The lists themselves are, in the owner's words, "a mess". The 11 Peloshian countries (2026-08-28): Abelia, Blitalia, Calculia, Charity, Durado, Igeria, Karagan, New London, Paromatica, Velonia, Voleria. Things that act as countries elsewhere and are not on it: **Actussia** (independent 1778, conquers Paromatica 1998), **Teln**, **Nightbloom** ("independence from Charity" 1988), **Peska**, **Pyres**, **Trusevia**, **Mystia**, **Hanjajas**, **Smidlovosk**, **Official Dominion**, **Forge Mountain**, **Patch Amber Dash** (#peloshian-census 2025-05-18).
+ - **The two world lists.** The 138-country list (2025-06-13) has Actussia but not Peska, Voleria, Abelia, Durado, Igeria or Karagan.
+ - **Charity's independence.** Timeline: "1986: Charity Gains Independence from Paromatica". #peloshian-census 2025-05-18 lists Charity as a Paromatican city and on 2025-06-08: "And Charity is now independent".
+ - **Who conquers whom.** Timeline: "1998: Actussia conquers Paromatica". #war (2025-07-27): "Actussia now under Paromatican Control". #news (2026-05-27): "We have captured the Swordo Sundrie Nothing. And have assumed total control of Big Paromatica."
+ - **Provinces of Velonia.** 1981: 16 provinces. 2008: nine flags, including Iyasuwa, North Actussia, Rochmeariv, Velonian Ikoron, Zapadnir and Hallet Islands that are not in the 1981 list.
+ - **Calculia / Calcula.** Both spellings; "Calculia Incident 1987" (timeline); the 2025 war. FY lists "FY Store 2 (Calculian Undergrounds)".
+ - **Pyres.** Has coordinates (4800 65 -4300) and, in the story, was destroyed.
+ - **Japan Town and Chairville.** Chairville is the crater under Japan Town (#offical-lore), and also what a group "calls Japan town" (#news 2025-04-03).
+ - **FY in the 1980s.** "FY Plaza" is the sixth largest Velonian city in 1985 (#peloshian-census 2025-07-31: "FY Plaza 36B"), while FY's other posts are written as a modern company ("FY Corporation®", stock prices, 2025 dates).
+
+ ## 8. The story's own records
+
+ - **Arc order exists in three versions.** **Settled:** time-based, oldest first. See the Arc order page.
+ - #arc-names (2024-07-29): Bad Business, Rivers Edge, Return of the Masters, Mark Shinobi, Rise MW, Dirty Deeds Deals Once More, Shaken Pillars, Wander Shadow, Civil War, Shadows of Evil, Smokeville, Spirit World, Graduation of the Fated, Finale, Cocoethese.
+ - #story-general (2026-05-07): Wacko Novels, Rivers Edge, Shinobi (Mark of the shinobi + Masters + MW), Dirty Deeds, Shaken Pillars, **Civil War, Wandering Shadow**, **Smokeville, Shadows of Evil**, Spirit World, Graduation, Finale (Tenmachi + Paromatica), Cocoethese. Apple Jimmy: "Erm, bad business?"
+ - #story-general (2026-10-16): 17 arcs; **Wandering Shadow before Civil War**, **Smokeville after Spirit World**; Tenmachi, Last Ride (Paromatica) and Finale as separate arcs; then Twin Flames, Welcome to Iyasua, Warpath.
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** Civil War and Wandering Shadow swap places, Smokeville moves, Bad Business disappears from the 2026 lists, and "Finale" changes from containing Tenmachi and Paromatica to being a separate arc. **My reading:** Civil War and Wandering Shadow were played at the same time (the tracker interleaves them from Oct to Dec 2023), which would explain the swap.
+ - **Arc names that don't carry over.** "Deetz Deals Again", "The owner of Caho", "Whisky River", "arine pt 2" (#arc-names 2022); "Settling the Score" (#timeline). They are not in the final lists.
+ - **The tracker stops.** The episode tracker ends at Tenmachi Ep 4 (posted 2025-07-06). Cocoethese, Twin Flames, Welcome to Iyasua and Warpath (arcs 14-17) have no entries.
+ - **Episode numbering.** "Dirty Deeds Deals **One More**: Episode 7" and "Civil War Episode 6" (no colon) don't match the others.
+ - **The graveyard.** Headings are posted with no names: "Pre Story", "Pre Arc 39-50", "Pre Arc 50-70", and the arc names. The arc numbers 39-70 are not defined anywhere.
+ - **Peloshia's constitution.** The twelve Amendments in #peace-talks (2025-09-06) are rules of the Minecraft server (griefing, lag, backups), not of the in-story world.
+
+ ## 9. The setting's years
+
+ - In-story years used: **126 CE to 1987** in quotes, **1939-2003** in the timeline, **1989-2008** in the news posts. The lore dates the invention of the **internet to 1973**.
+ - Posts inside those years mention things from the real 2020s: "tik toks" in Graduation Ep 9, "Femboy Hooters", "Shnut Bucks", "AirBNB" (#news 2026-08-13), "Jollibee" (#land-split-proposals 2025-10-08), "zaza", "rizz".
+ - **Why it doesn't fit:** the story is set in the 1980s but shares references with today. The server never says whether this is deliberate.
+ - Real-world figures appear: Ronald Reagan as US president in 1988 (matches), Margaret Thatcher, and "Paul Groseman" in 2026-07-28 posts.
+
+ ## 10. Still open
+
+ These are the ones the answers did not settle. Answer any of them and I'll update the notes.
+
+ 1. **GDEF and the Peloshian Powerscaling Society:** what do they stand for, and who runs them? (You said you don't know; that is fine and they stay marked open.)
+ 2. **The year of the Cleansing / Ludus attack:** 1983 or 1985?
+ 3. **Satamachi's birth year,** and Iyasu's (Satamachi is two years older).
+ 4. **Which of the Domains Knowledge, Weather and Chaos** belong to which Official? Is Ludus an Official?
+ 5. **The country lists:** which entries count as countries? (The list is "a mess"; I can keep the three lists as they are and mark them unreliable.)
+ 6. **Daward in the Pyres story:** "Daward was never seen again". Who is that?
+ 7. **Nimona's surname** (Nimona Peklo, Namona Peklo?).
+ 8. **Luna and Tic,** the two other Cocoethes named in 2022. Who are they? And are Fig and George two halves of one being?
+ 9. **Who are the Tenmachi** in 1976 when they form?
+ 10. **Peyton's time away:** a century, centuries or two millennia?
+ 11. **The news posts as the story's future:** the 2025 war on Velonia, the 2004 June Revolution and the 2008 World Bontu Ball League. Should they be shown after the 1980s arcs?
+ 12. **Dave:** he is a joke character, so his three different homelands can stay as they are. Should the site say that on his page?
