Richard

Milkywaytrain:

"Richard" is a lineage of endermen that appear in [[Rhubarb]]'s house. The only criteria for an enderman to become a Richard is to teleport into his house and get named.

Several generations of Richards have gone by:
* The original Richard stayed by the living room window, staring hatefully at the sea. He was accidentally killed by [[Illura]] with Thorns armor.
* Richard 2 lived in the basement for a short while before his boat was broken and he left. Presumably, he died of natural causes.
* Richard 3 never existed.
* Richard 4 lived in the kitchen with his pet grass block. He was joined by an armadillo at some point. He was then killed by a loose Iron Golem that Rhubarb had transported to his home, forgetting that golems attack endermen for some reason.
* Richard 5 lived in Rhubarb's basement, next to the enchanting room.
** Richard 5 the Second was accidentally killed before he could be properly named. He was going to be kept in a cage for later purposes.
* Richard 6 died somehow
* Richards 7-10 were accidentally killed by the gamemode being set to peaceful.

}}

Rhubarb is a normal guy who lives in a hole in a mountainside.

== Personality ==

Rhubarb is an extremely paranoid and isolated man. He has a habit of shutting himself off from the other islanders, keeping many secrets and refusing to elaborate on his cryptic statements. He tries to avoid drama, unless he's not involved, in which case he wants to know everything about it and will egg on any negative feelings. He grows obsessed with things easily. More than anything else, he is deeply lonely and afraid of losing everything again, doesn't understand who or what he is, and is incredibly easy to manipulate due to his fragile mental state.

== Backstory ==

A long time ago, Rhubarb woke up in a place he didn't recognize with no memory of who he was or where he came from. All that he knew was that he wasn't supposed to be here, and he was terrified. He ran away from where he woke up and started living a life of secrecy, digging a house out of a stony shore and staying there. He took up exploring, trying to map out this unfamiliar world he found himself in, and eventually came across the deep dark and the Ancient Cities. There, he began to feel drawn to the sculk and to the Warden's looming presence.

==== Current History ====
Rhubarb fell asleep for a very long time and woke up again, in another place he didn't recognize. Everything he had worked for was gone, replaced by this unfamiliar island. This time, he remembered who he was from that past world. He proceeded to do the exact same thing as before: running into the ocean and living in a hole. After settling down, he started as an explorer again, and once again found himself drawn to the Ancient Cities. When he met the Warden again, it stayed with him. He started having strange dreams, hearing the Warden's heart beat, and sculk started to manifest in people's homes.

The constant beating of the Warden's heart in his head started to drive him insane, slowly. He started to fall prey to the Warden's influence, leaving cryptic messages around the island. Sculk started appearing at spawn, a massive mound of it resembling an egg sack. He had a conspiracy board and messy journals on his shelf, all documenting what he believed to be "the truth" about this world.

All of it was bullshit. During an island meeting, he was asked to leave. He immediately left and killed himself within the sculk mound, trying to remove his own soul. After failing to do that successfully, the Warden decided he was a failure and abandoned him.

Rhubarb was miserable throughout the days after, sealing himself in his home and letting everything fall to pieces. He got better, eventually; he even tried to make things right with Finch and befriend him. Of course, everything fell apart again when Finch died and turned into a ghost.

== Appearance ==

Rhubarb is around 5'6" and fairly skinny. He has dark circles under his eyes from how little he sleeps. Rhubarb is a fox man of some kind, having the lower body and ears of a red fox. He's unable to wear shoes due to his overgrown claws, but other than that he dresses like a normal person. He usually wears a torn-up jacket over a plain shirt and bandana, with shorts over his digitigrade legs. His fingers are stained with sculk, turning them solid black.

His fur is a little rough and unkempt. He has several scars on his body: several on his arms from minor accidents and skin-picking, a large one on his chest from where he tried to take out his soul, and the entrance/exit wounds on his stomach and back from when the Warden attacked him.

== Relationships ==

[[Finch]]: i'm sorry.

[[Cherry]]: Cherry has assaulted him twice but Rhubarb stills considers him a friend, somehow.

[[Queen Amanita]]: He despises them. Would gladly kill them if they weren't piloting Finch's body at the moment.

[[Illura]]: He got killed by her once. Generally friendly, sees him like a pesky little sibling.

[[Owl]]: Friendly.

[[Jelly]]: Friendly. Trusts them with his research.

[[Daisy]]: you had it coming.

== Trivia ==
* He has one of every kind of dog, all of which are named after units of measuring radiation. In the same order as [https://minecraft.wiki/w/Wolf#/media/File:Wolf_variants.png this picture], they are named Becquerel, Rutherford, Rad, Coulomb, Curie, Roentgen, Gray, Erg, and Sievert.
** Rutherford and Curie have both survived being jaunted.
* He knows what Source Engine is despite Minecraft running on Java.

{{InfoboxLocation
|name = Rhubarb's "house"

Rhubarb's shitass house

== Rooms ==
* Living room - Has a little couch and china cabinet in it. Connected to the storeroom, smelter, kitchen, basement, and attic.
* Storeroom - A bunch of chests. Nothing special. Connected to the smelter and the living room.
* Smelter room - Contains the super smelter. Nothing special. Connected to the living room, storeroom, and something else.
* Basement - Houses the enchanting table. Connects to Rhubarb's bedroom, the bathroom, and the second basement.
* Second basement - Leads to the mine and axolotl pond.
* Bedroom - go away.
* Something else? - off-limits, sorry.

== History ==
Rhubarb repeated what he did before, in the "old world:" he ran off into the ocean and dug a hole. The various rooms have gone through a lot of changes; what once consisted of a large open space of nothing but stone is now a proper house dug into a mountainside. It even has tiling this time around!

== Appearance ==
hole
[[File:Base.png|thumb]]

== Secrets ==
Formerly host to a large conspiracy room full of sculk and sculk-related items. It had a full conspiracy board and incomprehensible journals in it! No longer contains any of that.

''Not to be confused with [[Station]]!''

The Train Station is an underground subway system that goes around the Island, built primarily by Rhubarb.

== Builds ==

== History ==

The train station was started by Rhubarb as a way to "make up" for his past sins. It then became a passion project, providing easier transportation to various remote parts of the island.

== Appearance ==

The upper floor is dug out of a hill, with stone walls and stone brick floors. Decorative copper pipes go up into the ceiling and down into the floor. There are two indoor garden patches with pink shrubs, and some benches. The left wall is entirely tinted glass, giving people a glimpse into a cave.

The middle floor consists of a few shops, currently only Jelly's wood shop and Alphys' prismarine shop.

The bottom floor is where all of the tracks are located, sprawling out in all four cardinal directions. Each track is made of cherry logs, cut copper, and polished deepslate. It smells vaguely of copper throughout the bottom floor due to the large amount of the metal used.

== Secrets ==
don't look under the grates.

Cherry is not supposed to be here!

Cherry is a guest from another world. He's currently unable to communicate with anyone other than [[Rhubarb]]. 

== Personality ==

On the outside, Cherry is very friendly and excitable. He likes making new friends and starting random conversations, and will insert himself into existing conversations whenever he wants. Several people find him off-putting and annoying due to this. 

== Backstory ==

This is for him to know and for you to find out. :)

== Appearance ==

Cherry isn't very tall or physically imposing, around 5'6" and not very strong by himself. He has scruffy red-brown hair with unusual blue and purple streaks, and a very prominent [https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/IdiotHair ahoge] which emotes with him. He usually wears a green striped sweater and scuffed up old slacks and farm boots, with the most formal part of his outfit being the red tie.

Richard

2024-11-02T02:31:00Z

Milkywaytrain:

"Richard" is a lineage of endermen that appear in [[Rhubarb]]'s house. The only criteria for an enderman to become a Richard is to teleport into his house and get named.

Several generations of Richards have gone by:
* The original Richard stayed by the living room window, staring hatefully at the sea. He was accidentally killed by [[Illura]] with Thorns armor.
* Richard 2 lived in the basement for a short while before his boat was broken and he left. Presumably, he died of natural causes.
* Richard 3 never existed.
* Richard 4 lived in the kitchen with his pet grass block. He was joined by an armadillo at some point. He was then killed by a loose Iron Golem that Rhubarb had transported to his home, forgetting that golems attack endermen for some reason.
* Richard 5 is currently alive and lives in Rhubarb's basement, next to the enchanting room.
** Richard 5 the Second was accidentally killed before he could be properly named. He was going to be kept in a cage for later purposes.
* Richard 6 is currently alive and lives by the stairs in Rhubarb's living room.
* Richard 7 is currently alive and lives in the kitchen, like Richard 4 did.
* Richard 8 is currently alive and lives by the living room window like the original Richard did.

More than anything else, he is deeply lonely and afraid of losing everything again, doesn't understand who or what he is, and is incredibly easy to manipulate due to his fragile mental state.

== Backstory ==

A long time ago, Rhubarb woke up in a place he didn't recognize with no memory of who he was or where he came from. All that he knew was that he wasn't supposed to be here, and he was terrified. He ran away from where he woke up and started living a life of secrecy, digging a house out of a stony shore and staying there. He took up exploring, trying to map out this unfamiliar world he found himself in, and eventually came across the deep dark and the Ancient Cities. There, he began to feel drawn to the sculk and to the Warden's looming presence.

==== Current History ====
Rhubarb fell asleep for a very long time and woke up again, in another place he didn't recognize. Everything he had worked for was gone, replaced by this unfamiliar island. This time, he remembered who he was from that past world. He proceeded to do the exact same thing as before: running into the ocean and living in a hole. After settling down, he started as an explorer again, and once again found himself drawn to the Ancient Cities. When he met the Warden again, it stayed with him. He started having strange dreams, hearing the Warden's heart beat, and sculk started to manifest in people's homes.

The constant beating of the Warden's heart in his head started to drive him insane, slowly. He started to fall prey to the Warden's influence, leaving cryptic messages around the island. Sculk started appearing at spawn, a massive mound of it resembling an egg sack. He had a conspiracy board and messy journals on his shelf, all documenting what he believed to be "the truth" about this world.

All of it was bullshit. During an island meeting, he was asked to leave. He immediately left and killed himself within the sculk mound, trying to remove his own soul. After failing to do that successfully, the Warden decided he was a failure and abandoned him.

Rhubarb was miserable throughout the days after, sealing himself in his home and letting everything fall to pieces. He got better, eventually.

== Appearance ==

Rhubarb is around 5'6" and fairly skinny. He has dark circles under his eyes from how little he sleeps. Rhubarb is a fox man of some kind, having the lower body and ears of a red fox. He's unable to wear shoes due to his overgrown claws, but other than that he dresses like a normal person. He usually wears a torn-up jacket over a plain shirt and bandana, with shorts over his digitigrade legs. His fingers are stained with sculk, turning them solid black.

His fur is a little rough and unkempt. He has several scars on his body: several on his arms from minor accidents and skin-picking, a large one on his chest from where he tried to take out his soul, and the entrance/exit wounds on his stomach and back from when the Warden attacked him.

== Relationships ==

[[Finch]]: It's dire.

[[Cherry]]: Cherry has assaulted him twice but Rhubarb stills considers him a friend, somehow.

[[Queen Amanita]]: He despises them. Would gladly kill them if they weren't piloting Finch's body at the moment.

[[Illura]]: He got killed by her once. Generally friendly, sees him like a pesky little sibling.

[[Owl]]: Friendly.

[[Jelly]]: Friendly. Trusts them with his research.

== Trivia ==
* He has one of every kind of dog, all of which are named after units of measuring radiation. In the same order as [https://minecraft.wiki/w/Wolf#/media/File:Wolf_variants.png| this picture], they are named Becquerel, Rutherford, Rad, Coulomb, Curie, Roentgen, Gray, Erg, and Sievert.
** Rutherford and Curie have both survived being jaunted.

Richard

2024-10-02T00:18:39Z

Milkywaytrain:

"Richard" is a lineage of endermen that appear in [[Rhubarb]]'s house. The only criteria for an enderman to become a Richard is to teleport into his house and get named.

Several generations of Richards have gone by:
* The original Richard stayed by the living room window, staring hatefully at the sea. He was accidentally killed by [[Illura]] with Thorns armor.
* Richard 2 lived in the basement for a short while before his boat was broken and he left. Presumably, he died of natural causes.
* Richard 3 never existed.
* Richard 4 lived in the kitchen with his pet grass block. He was joined by an armadillo at some point. He was then killed by a loose Iron Golem that Rhubarb had transported to his home, forgetting that golems attack endermen for some reason.
* Richard 5 is currently alive and lives in Rhubarb's basement, next to the enchanting room.
** Richard 5 the Second was accidentally killed before he could be properly named. He was going to be kept in a cage for later purposes.
* Richard 6 is currently alive and lives by the stairs in Rhubarb's living room.
* Richard 7 is currently alive and lives in the kitchen, like Richard 4 did.

You.

Huh?

Why didn't you do anything to stop it?

What are you talking about?

Don't play dumb. You're smarter than that. Smarter than me, even.

Is flattery the best option right now, Cherry?

Someone blocked the signal at the radio tower.

I saw. I don't know what I could have done to stop that.

Asked them to stop?

Do you think they'd listen to me after everything?

I thought we were friends, Rhubarb.

...We are friends.

Then why-

I just don't want you hanging around everyone else right now. There's... too much going on.

What?

The blood moon. The Queen. Finch. There's too much happening at the same time.

...

They don't know what your intentions are! Hell, I don't even know what you want.

I wanted... to be friends.

...

I could have helped, you know.

With what? How? You don't even live here.

The blood moon... I know more about the moon than any of you ever could.

...?

It chose me-

You've said that before. What do you mean it 'chose you'?

...You'd know if you followed it.

Followed...?

The moon. It saved my people, and they worship it to this day.

Do not fucking touch me. You make absolutely no sense.

The point is... If you had let me talk with everyone more, maybe I could have given you some pointers!

...

But now the signal's closed, so I'll never be able to tell anyone~!

Shut up.

...

You gave up on being friendly pretty quick, huh?

...Well, why would I want to be friendly to someone who just tells me to shut up?

You act like I haven't let you get away with heinous shit. I built that damn radio tower for you.

Heinous...?

All of these conversations get saved as logs, you know that, right? Haven't you read through them?

...I have.

Don't you remember tearing my fucking soul out?

You let me!

After you kept pressing the topic! You held me down when I was trying to get away from you!

I'd do it again.

What?

Your soul is just... so beautiful to me. If you'd let me, I'd take it out just to see it whenever I wanted.

Cherry.

...

Stop looking at me like that.

Get away from me-

''A sickening sort of wet noise can be heard.''

Cherry-

If this is a dream world, who can stop me from dreaming this?

You're- You're fucking crazy. Let go of me.

I can feel it... I've got your soul in my hand, Rhubarb. Again.

...

If you try and run, maybe I'll just take it out. How's that sound?

...

Now... I think you should fix the radio tower. Will you?

...

Rhubarb.

Rhubarb...? What's wrong?

What are you-

''That sickening wet sound can be heard again.''

...!

Two can play at this game, you know.

...

Did you think I'd listen to you after you pulled this stunt?

Let go of me and I'll let go of you.

...

...

There.

That's better.

 

...Are we... really friends, Rhubarb?

After that? No.

Right.

...I'll give you another chance if you help me with something, maybe.

...

I did build that tower for you, after all. And I let you tear my soul out.

...

It's the least you can do.

What do you need?

How much do you know about souls?

...I know what they're supposed to look like. Blue, flaming, about the size of two hands?

There's... different types of souls, ones that can respawn and ones that can't.

How can you tell the difference?

I don't know, really. I just... assume people can't respawn until they die and come back. Most people can't.

Interesting.

Why do you need to know this...?

...I don't want to tell you about it.

Fine.
 

... Have you ever noticed the sky in here?

...No?

Look at it. It's split perfectly down the middle... Half day, half night.

Huh. That's...

I think it's pretty.

...Yeah, I do too.

...

...

Are we really still friends?

Yes. Stop asking before I change my mind.

You don't seem very happy tonight...

I'm not.

What's the matter?

Don't touch me. You should know what the problem is.

...

What are those signs? How did you even get those there? You can't- You can't, like, physically interact with this world, right?

No...! I didn't do anything on purpose!

On purpose?

Yeah... One time while you were awake and I was asleep, I... I kind of saw the world through your eyes. I couldn't touch anything or build anything... but I could still observe it...

If you couldn't change anything, how did those signs get there? How did the radio tower change?

I don't know! I really don't! I guess I... willed that into existence? Hehe.

...

Seeing the radio tower makes me happy! I like being able to talk to you and your friends! Maybe it changed because of that?

...I don't like that at all.

What?

I don't like it. You shouldn't be able to change a world you aren't a part of! You- You came from some other world entirely, right? How did you get in here at all?

... Rhubarb... You seem... really upset. I'm sorry. But... I'm telling the truth! I didn't mean to do that!

You still did! You're still... ...

Still what?

Still here because of me. This bullshit just follows me, doesn't it?

What do you mean...?

I mean... God, I- I hate talking about it.

I won't tell anyone else, if that matters.

...No, it doesn't. Everyone already knows. It's done with by now. Ugh, I can just tell you. You know what the Warden is, right?

...

That's a... new expression from you.

Hm?

You're... actually frowning. You're always smiling.

...

Stop doing that, you look scary.

Of course I know what the Warden is.

Oh-

It is the reason my people fled the underground. I haven't told you that story, have I?

No.

Well, a long time ago, the residents of Poet Town lived underground.

Something began to seep into their homes. Sculk. It started taking over what they knew. Into the water, into the food... The entirety of their city was covered.

The Warden showed up not long after.

They didn't know what it was. They just learned they had to be quiet, or they'd die.

Isn't it a pitiful story?

...

The sculk didn't stop spreading. Everyone who died to the Warden just spread it further.

They had to flee. Quickly, silently.

Many died in the process, of course. The Warden couldn't let them leave without a few souvenirs.

When the survivors found the surface, they were greeted by intense light in the darkness of the night sky. The Moon.

This was long before I came around, though. Even now, the Warden is seen as a scourge. A devil.

...

So yes, I do know of the Warden.

...Hm. Well. I... also know the Warden.

I guessed.

More personally than you do, sadly.

...What?

It... well, there's... It took interest in me, for some reason...

...

It... Finch says it took advantage of me. Used me to... further its goals.

How is it in both of our worlds?

I don't know. It's... something else, something otherworldly.

It would... briefly possess me, move my body in ways I couldn't remember... all to spread sculk on the surface.

I hurt people. I hurt... everyone. Especially Finch.

You didn't. The Warden did-

You don't understand. It was... lying to me. Telling me everyone else hated me! That it was the only one who could help me...

I didn't realize it was capable of such... manipulation.

It... Well, it left eventually. After... no, I don't want to talk about that at all.

That's why... That's why I'm scared when you start trying to interact with everyone else! Last time something like that happened, well... Nothing good came from it.

... I see. Well, surely you know I'm different from that thing?

I know you are. I just... I can't shake the feeling, you know?

I do. But... it'll be different this time. I wouldn't hurt you!

...

... So... why did it take interest in you? Do you know?

...

...

... Because...

There's something wrong with my soul.

You're back!

Nice to see you again.

We've been seeing each other more often. There was a bit there where I never saw you!

Ah... For a while there, it was really hard for me to sleep.

Insomnia?

Something like that.

I've had it before. Eventually I would end up so tired I just fell asleep as soon as I sat down somewhere. Usually after working on one building for too long.

... I was the same way.

It's fun to get caught up in building, for me. Even if I don't know what the end result will look like for sure.

Don't you plan before you start?

Eh, sometimes. Other times, I have a clear enough image in my head, I don't feel the need to plan.

Oh. I do the same thing, actually. It's gotten me in some trouble before.

How so?

I'll end up building in the way of other people, and one of us has to move. Usually me.

I take it you're close to the other people on your island?

... Physically, yes. It's a large island, but we tend to stay in the same areas.

What are the other people there like?

They're... interesting. Sometimes they make no sense.

Eh?

They talk about stuff that doesn't exist. Sorry, that means nothing.

...

I really don't want to talk about that. As for the others... There's quite a few of us. There's Owl, he owns a town... Hill Valley. I've been a few times.

It sounds like a nice place, from the name.

It is. Not finished, but still nice.
There's... Illura, they're an interesting one. Almost like an annoying sibling.
Lucian's the one who built our Nether hub- oh, have you been to the Nether...?

Of course! The End, too!

The End... I went there once, a long time ago. Anyway, there's... Finch.

... Do you not like him?

It's not that.

He seemed friendly enough last time. Is he...?

Not really... For a good reason. I... I did some bad things to him... I... I don't...

Hey, hey! It's alright. We don't have to talk about this if you don't want to.

Sorry... It's still complicated...

I understand. Kind of. I don't know what you did, but I hope he can forgive you.

...

You're so tense. Do you... not like hugs?

I hardly ever get them.

Oh. I'm sorry. It's just natural for me...

You're fine.

... I got your communicator, by the way!

What?! Give it back!

''I'm here again! He told me about you all!''

''Stop talking on my communicator! Stop! You can't talk to them!''
''Sorry about him... No! Stop it! Hey! Give that back!''
''If you pull that again I'm going to fucking kill you.''

''I need to figure out how to improve a signal for you.''
''are you aware your messages are text? it seems like audio transcription.''

''Can you figure out how to get him his own communicator?''

''you're cutting out way too much....hmm.''

Hello? Have we met before?

I... think so? You look familiar.

That's what I thought!

I don't know where I've seen you from, though. I know everyone on the island... mostly.

Island... ?

Island. The island we live on.

I don't live on an island!

That was apparent. There are some of us who live very far out. but I've still seen them before. You, though? I've never seen you. Not in person.

Well, I could say the same about you! I know everyone in town, but I don't know you. Somehow, though, we know each other!

Do you have any clue how we've met?

Not at all.

Very helpful. Well, if we can't figure out where we know each other from, let's—

Get to know each other!

… Yes. How did you know...?

Hehe. Sixth sense?

You're insane.

So let's get to know each other! I'm Cherry, mayor of Poet Town.

I'm Rhubarb... not anything special, really.

Hey, don't put yourself down! Everyone's got something special in them.

I don't like talking about myself very much, sorry.

Oh, that's fine. Is it just the more 'introspective' stuff, or talking about yourself at all that you dislike?

Uh... I guess just the deeper stuff. I can talk about what I do for fun just fine.

Then let's do that! I like gardening and beekeeping. I also like to write, and folks say I have a knack for building!

You do all of this, and you're the mayor of a town?

I can still have hobbies! I'm not busy all the time!

...Sorry. I honestly don't know how busy a mayor would be... we don't really have those on the island.

Really?

Yeah. There's a few towns. but no official titles...

Interesting. ... So. what do you do for fun?

Oh. Right. I… like to explore? And... I like collecting things, and mining.

What sorts of stuff do you collect?

Treasures, mostly? Things like... armor trims, records, and... Well, I used to collect more. but there's... been same issues.

Oh no!

I don't want to talk about it.

…

Don't pout at me, you're a grown man. We barely know each other. I don't want to talk about it.

Sorry! It's, uh, habit.

… Anyway.

What's that device you have?

This? It lets me talk to everyone else on the island. Even if they're far away.

Oh, communicators! A few of my favorite townspeople have those!

Only your favorites?

Hehe. Can I see yours? It looks different from the ones I've seen.

… Alright?

''Hello? Where is this? I've never seen this before! Can anyone hear me?''

Are you typing on my communicator—

There's new people in there!

Those are the other islanders! Can they even see what you're saying?

I don't knowww!

''what'' 
''hi''

''hello?''

Oh my God.

''Oh! Hello! There's people here! I'm sorry to show up uninvited, but it's nice to meet you!''

''you're cutting out a lot..... ''

The signal's weak?

Yeah... I'm starting to feel weird...?

''The signal's cutting out... It's getting harder to send messages... I think I have to go. My name's Cherry! Bye!''

bye…. ?

Did you tell them your name?

I tried! I don't know if it went through!

I hope it did. I think I'm starting to… wake up? I'll-

See you next time~!

… I guess.

Rhubarb

|name = Rhubarb
|image = <gallery>

</gallery>
|pronouns = he/him
|species = Fox Kemonomimi
|playedby = Allister
}}

Rhubarb is a normal guy who lives in a hole in a mountainside.

== Personality ==

Rhubarb is an extremely paranoid and isolated man. He has a habit of shutting himself off from the other islanders, keeping many secrets and refusing to elaborate on his cryptic statements. He tries to avoid drama, unless he's not involved, in which case he wants to know everything about it and will egg on any negative feelings. He grows obsessed with things easily. More than anything else, he is deeply lonely and afraid of losing everything again, doesn't understand who or what he is, and is incredibly easy to manipulate due to his fragile mental state.

== Backstory ==

A long time ago, Rhubarb woke up in a place he didn't recognize with no memory of who he was or where he came from. All that he knew was that he wasn't supposed to be here, and he was terrified. He ran away from where he woke up and started living a life of secrecy, digging a house out of a stony shore and staying there. He took up exploring, trying to map out this unfamiliar world he found himself in, and eventually came across the deep dark and the Ancient Cities. There, he began to feel drawn to the sculk and to the Warden's looming presence.

==== Current History ====
Rhubarb fell asleep for a very long time and woke up again, in another place he didn't recognize. Everything he had worked for was gone, replaced by this unfamiliar island. This time, he remembered who he was from that past world. He proceeded to do the exact same thing as before: running into the ocean and living in a hole. After settling down, he started as an explorer again, and once again found himself drawn to the Ancient Cities. When he met the Warden again, it stayed with him. He started having strange dreams, hearing the Warden's heart beat, and sculk started to manifest in people's homes.

The constant beating of the Warden's heart in his head started to drive him insane, slowly. He started to fall prey to the Warden's influence, leaving cryptic messages around the island. Sculk started appearing at spawn, a massive mound of it resembling an egg sack. He had a conspiracy board and messy journals on his shelf, all documenting what he believed to be "the truth" about this world.

All of it was bullshit. During an island meeting, he was asked to leave. He immediately left and killed himself within the sculk mound, trying to remove his own soul. After failing to do that successfully, the Warden decided he was a failure and abandoned him.

Rhubarb was miserable throughout the days after, sealing himself in his home and letting everything fall to pieces. He got better, eventually.

== Appearance ==

Rhubarb is around 5'6" and fairly skinny. He has dark circles under his eyes from how little he sleeps. Rhubarb is a fox man of some kind, having the lower body and ears of a red fox. He's unable to wear shoes due to his overgrown claws, but other than that he dresses like a normal person. He usually wears a torn-up jacket over a plain shirt and bandana, with shorts over his digitigrade legs. His fingers are stained with sculk, turning them solid black.

His fur is a little rough and unkempt. He has several scars on his body: several on his arms from minor accidents and skin-picking, a large one on his chest from where he tried to take out his soul, and the entrance/exit wounds on his stomach and back from when the Warden attacked him.

== Relationships ==

[[Illura]]: He got killed by her once. Generally friendly, sees him like a pesky little sibling.

[[Finch]]: They're better now...?

[[Cherry]]: Friends?

Rhubarb's shitass house

== Rooms ==
* Living room - Nothing special.
* Storeroom - Nothing special.
* "Trophy" room - Formerly the conspiracy room. Now displays various treasures he's found.
* Kitchen - No longer full of mold! Richard 4 sits at the table.
* Basement - Connects to his bedroom, bathroom, and enchanting area, which is a normal structure for a house to have.
* Axolotl pond - Complete with a viewing area.

== History ==
Rhubarb repeated what he did before, in the "old world:" he ran off into the ocean and dug a hole. The various rooms have gone through a lot of changes; what once consisted of a large open space of nothing but stone is now a proper house dug into a mountainside. It even has tiling this time around!

== Appearance ==
hole
[[File:Base.png|thumb]]

== Secrets ==
Formerly host to a large conspiracy room full of sculk and sculk-related items. It had a full conspiracy board and incomprehensible journals in it! No longer contains any of that.

“There’s something wrong with my soul.”

“How so?” Cherry cocked his head, and his expression shifted slightly. That small change betrayed boundless interest in this malformed, broken soul.

Rhubarb shifted uncomfortably in his seat. This wasn’t something he liked to talk about – he could hardly stand to think of it most days.

“What’s that look for?”

“...That’s all I know. There’s… something wrong with it. I don’t know what.” An ache started to form in his chest, right beneath the skin. It traveled down into the fat and deeper into the muscle, the same way he had done before.

Cherry hummed. “Have you ever seen your own soul?”

The question hit Rhubarb like a sack of wet mice. “I- no? How would I…” He knew exactly how – you can just take them out, of course. Normal people can. Finch did it. Rhubarb couldn’t. “I tried to look at it, once.”

“I take it you failed?”

“...I did.” Rhubarb rolled his eyes, trying desperately to brush off the malaise he was feeling. “He… you make it sound like it’s easy.”

“Well, it was for me!” Cherry was beaming, as if the memory of seeing your own soul could be pleasant. “It hurt, of course. At first. Then it didn’t feel like much of anything.”

“Did you just… reach in, or something?”

“Mhm! Gross, isn’t it?” His smile made Rhubarb feel sick.

‘Gross’ was one way to put it. Rhubarb could still remember the feeling; the different layers of skin, the fat and muscles and fasciae separating as he cut into his own chest, exactly as Finch had. There was no relief or numbing as he reached for his soul, only agony as his fingers grazed his ribs and all of the disgusting flesh inside him.

“...It’s pretty gross, yeah.”

“I did have some people to help me with it, in case I couldn’t handle the pain.” Cherry was still beaming, recounting this memory. How was he so cheery about it? “I pulled through, though. I don’t know what they’d have done if I chickened out!”

“What?”

“Did you have anyone helping you?”

Rhubarb looked at the ground. What was his problem? Yeah, of course, he could just ask one of the other islanders who hated him to watch him rip out his own soul. That totally would have gone over well! It would have made that meeting he ruined even more interesting! “No. I did it alone.”

Cherry reached a hand out to Rhubarb. He snapped his fingers in Rhubarb’s face when he still didn’t look up, too busy remembering that day in intense detail. Rhubarb immediately looked up, the noise startling him out of his daze. Cherry’s regular, seemingly-glued on smile was replaced with something gentler, but his blank eyes still burned holes through Rhubarb.

“How about I help you this time?”

Rhubarb felt like he was going to vomit directly into Cherry’s lap as he processed the question.

Cherry moved his hand under Rhubarb’s chin, gently tilting his face up and locking eyes with him. He stroked his cheek with his thumb; the unexpected touch sent a shiver through Rhubarb. It wasn’t a pleasant one. “I’ve taken out my own soul before; it’s gotta be even easier doing it to someone else, right?” His tone was saccharine and disgusting beyond words.

“Stop. Stop it.” Rhubarb grabbed Cherry’s wrist, abruptly ending his gesture of ‘affection.’ He loosened his grip as Cherry’s smile faded. “Sorry, I- I just don’t like to be touched like that.”

“I understand.” Cherry sighed. “I should have asked. But, my other question still stands. Would you like some help?”

Rhubarb squirmed away from Cherry trying to touch him again. “I don’t… I don’t know.”

“What’s got you hesitant about it?”

Everything, is what Rhubarb wanted to say. The pain and weakness he felt and the disgusting feeling of his insides and the shame. All of it. “I… I don’t know. Too much,” is what he actually said.

Cherry sighed again, like a teacher dealing with a child who scraped his knee. “Think of it like this, Rhubarb. I know what I’m doing, I’ve done it before-”

“You… you did it once! That’s nothing!”

“That’s more than you’ve managed, isn’t it?”

Rhubarb’s chest ached again, that searing pain radiating through his skin into his flesh.

“I know what to do, how to do it. If you want to know what’s wrong with your soul but can’t find it yourself, you might just need some help.” His voice was gentle as he reached around to pat Rhubarb on the back. Rhubarb resisted the urge to recoil from the touch; he knew it wouldn’t stop Cherry anyway.

He didn’t like this. He hated it. He stifled the urge to vomit and swallowed all of the words he wanted to say. He needed to know what was wrong with him; he needed it more than anything. He had resigned himself to never knowing, but now he had the chance to find something. Anything.

Rhubarb took in a deep breath and exhaled loudly. He had to steel his nerves. “Okay. You can try it.”

Cherry clapped. That plastic smile returned to his face and he positioned himself in front of Rhubarb. “I know you want to see your own soul, but I’ll be honest… I’m pretty interested in it, too.”

“Really?”

“Of course! I’ve never seen another soul with something wrong with it before, after all. That’s not something you see every day.” Rhubarb didn’t think to question his wording; a soul should be something you never see at all, but that’s far besides the point. “Here, take off your shirt. I don’t want to cut through the fabric.”

Rhubarb reluctantly stripped his shirt and bandana, revealing his thin frame. The scar from his previous attempt was ever-present, the entrance wound on his stomach paling in comparison in Cherry’s eyes. Cherry ran a finger down the scar, as if he was admiring the handiwork. “That’s a pretty clean cut. I don’t even need to draw a guideline to follow.”

“Thanks,” Rhubarb said, biting back a snarl. He didn’t want to be complimented for that. He felt disgusting.

“Lay on your back. It’ll be easier for me to cut if you’re under me.”

Rhubarb didn’t like this. He laid down anyway, trying to ignore everything he was feeling.

Cherry removed his sweater, tossing it onto the pile with Rhubarb’s clothes. He tucked his tie down into his shirt; he couldn’t have it hanging in the way while he was slicing his friend open. Every second felt like an eternity as Rhubarb waited for him to get started. He withdrew a diamond sword from his inventory space, and held it to Rhubarb’s throat for a second. He giggled when Rhubarb visibly tensed up, restraining himself from wiggling lest he poke himself on the tip of the blade.

“This is the same sword I used on myself. I kept it as diamond, in case I ever needed to do this again.” Cherry lifted the blade from Rhubarb’s neck and held the back edge in his hand. “Diamond’s sharp, and strong as long as you don’t hit it too hard.”

Rhubarb gulped as Cherry lowered himself on top of him, straddling his thighs. “Netherite’s stronger, and heavier, but it’s not as good at cutting cleanly. It leaves a nastier scar, too.”

“Why… why do you know all of this?”

Cherry just laughed. Rhubarb’s stomach churned as he stared at the tip of the blade. Cherry lowered it down, the cold sharp edge pressing on the scar tissue. It ached. It ached all the way through his body now.

“I’m going to start cutting now, okay? It’ll hurt.”

“I know.”

Rhubarb took in a deep breath as Cherry pressed the blade into his chest. The gentle ache was replaced with a sharp, searing pain. Cherry plunged the sword deeper, and slowly started to drag it towards him.

Rhubarb couldn’t help it anymore. He started to squirm and writhe under Cherry; the pain was too much, the memories of that day were too much, it was all too much. His own heartbeat was starting to pound in his ears already. He couldn’t hold back tears anymore.

Cherry withdrew the sword. “Hey. Stop moving.” He reached over and held Rhubarb’s head in place, holding his cheek against the floor. “If you want to see your own soul, you have to cooperate.”

“I can’t- I-” Rhubarb flinched as Cherry returned the blade to his chest. “Cherry, I can’t do this!”

“You can. You tried before. You’ll be fine.”

Rhubarb looked up at the man on top of him, calmly dragging a sword down his chest and severing the flesh keeping his organs in place. His face was blank, no more than a patient smile as he watched the blood pour out of Rhubarb.

“There, see? I made the cut. Now, I just have to…” Cherry tossed the sword aside, nonchalantly letting it drop to the floor. He reached into the new opening in Rhubarb’s chest, trying to feel around for his broken soul.

Rhubarb could hardly move anymore. Between panic and blood loss, he felt paralyzed underneath Cherry. He could feel everything – every movement of Cherry’s fingers inside of him, every graze of his fingernails, the blood still running out of him and onto the floor underneath. He could feel it, but he couldn’t make himself move. It was agony.

“Hmm. I think I see what you mean.” Cherry took his hand away from Rhubarb’s face, using it to pull the gash apart even further. “You obviously have a soul… You can respawn and teleport like me, but…” He pulled his other hand out and held the cut open. Rhubarb involuntarily whimpered in pain as his flesh was stretched out in ways he hadn’t conceived before. “It’s like it’s buried inside you.”

“Cherry, please- just- Please…” Rhubarb’s voice was weak. His breathing was quick and shallow.

“Relax. I know what I’m doing, okay?” He cupped Rhubarb’s face with his blood-covered hand, smearing his blood all over him. “I have an idea.”

Rhubarb prepared for whatever he was about to do. Cherry held one side of the cut open, and plunged his other hand deep into Rhubarb, like he was trying to pierce through his abdomen. Something came over Rhubarb – a wave of deep calmness, comforting yet agonizing all the same. It was as though he was suddenly paralyzed and frozen in place. All of the thoughts drained out of his mind, pouring out of his ears like nothing.

Cherry wrapped his hand around Rhubarb’s soul and pulled it out with force that Rhubarb could hardly feel.

“Look! Here it is!” Cherry exclaimed with an unnatural, uncomfortable glee.

“Is it… supposed to look… like that?”

Cherry looked at the ‘organ’ in his hands. “No. Not at all.”

It was luminescent, but dim. Its light was gentle, faint, and weakly pulsating. It looked like it was supposed to be a bright cyan, but had been left to rot like a tossed out stuffed toy. It dripped onto Cherry’s hands, the drops immediately evaporating as they fell.

It was the most terrifying, hideous thing Rhubarb had ever seen.

Cherry gently cradled it in his hands. “It’s small, for a soul. I can fit it in one hand.” Every touch sent a strange feeling into Rhubarb. It felt like someone was petting his head. It was… nice. “They’re supposed to be… well, bigger. Mine took both hands to hold.”

“That’s… not good… Why is it…” Rhubarb coughed. Blood came out of his mouth, dribbling down his face.

“I’ve never seen a soul like this before. It’s…” Cherry held it up to the light, watching it shimmer. “Beautiful.”

Rhubarb was silent.

“Ah… Are you there?” Cherry lowered the soul back into Rhubarb’s body. “I don’t want to keep it outside of you for too long.” He gingerly placed it down, watching it fade through his flesh and into its rightful place.

The feeling returned to Rhubarb’s body, but he couldn’t make himself move at all. He laid there in silence. What was there to say? He knew what his soul looked like. It was disgusting. It was broken and ugly and abnormal and wrong. It was everything he feared, everything he knew was true all along. Tears were welling from his eyes once again, rolling down his face and mixing with the puddles of blood.

“Hey, Rhubarb. There’s something special about you, you know.”

He just sighed. He couldn’t find any words to say.

“I’ve seen a few souls. They all look the same. Then there’s me, and then there’s you.”

Cherry brushed a stray hair off of Rhubarb’s face. Neither of them cared about the blood anymore. “Have you ever seen a broken screen, or a picture taken with a broken camera? There’s dark spots all over them. My soul looks a bit like that. Covered in dark spots that don’t glow anymore.”

Rhubarb stirred, an ear flicking at Cherry. He could almost visualize it; a soul with dead pixels.

“I’m defective too. I still bore my soul to the moon, and it still chose me.” Cherry smiled. It clearly meant a lot to him to be ‘chosen,’ whatever that meant. “I think your soul is beautiful just as it is! Even if it’s not a normal soul. It’s still you.”

Rhubarb closed his eyes. He was sick of this. He was sick of Cherry’s voice. He was sick of being told he was beautiful, that his soul was worth anything, he was sick of hearing about souls in general. He wanted to wake up. He just wanted to wake up and forget all of this.

Cherry pressed the sides of the cut together. Obviously, it wouldn’t heal in this dreamscape. It would just go back to normal when Rhubarb managed to wake up. Cherry still pressed it back together, like he was trying to stop the bleeding far too late into the process. It was… a kind gesture. It made Rhubarb want to scratch his skin off.

“Ah… I’m sorry if I said something wrong.” He sounded genuinely apologetic, as though he was capable of feeling remorse.

“...It’s whatever.”

Cherry perked up at Rhubarb’s voice. “Come see me soon, okay? Thank you for letting me do this.”

Rhubarb didn’t look at him. His voice was starting to fade out. He closed his eyes and waited for his body to wake up in the real world.

Rhubarb opened his eyes and saw the same ceiling he always sees. He rolled over and stretched, and felt a twinge of pain in his chest. The weather must be bad again; his scars usually hurt a bit worse when it had been raining for too long.

He couldn’t remember his dream, again. All he could remember from it was laying on the ground and hearing another voice saying something… Something like, “I love you.”
