The First Day
EdgyCommunist69 joined under the name TestSubject11 on June 30th, 2017. He noticed people mentioning a town called Birchwood in chat, and immediately became intrigued. He joined the town, witnessed it getting blown up by ayden327, and left. Arzaen gave him a few diamond blocks, and Edgy set off to found a town of his own.

Diamond Bay
Edgy found Diamond Bay on an ocean around 4000 blocks from spawn, and with the help of generalbluetit, he built the town and invited some people. One day, he accidentally leaked the coordinates to the town whilst ayden327 was online. He saw no problem however and continued to operate as normal.

One day, TooAtomic4You visited the town, shortly followed by ayden327 and Stealthinater. Atom warned Edgy to run away, and so he did. Edgy went back to spawn, then decided to walk back to Diamond Bay to discover it in pristine condition. He then logged off for the day. Upon logging back in, he was trapped inside a wall and was suffocating: ayden and Stealth had lavacasted the town.

First conflict with The Order
Not knowing where to go or what to do, Edgy accepted an invite to The Teutonic Order, a new group that was growing rapidly. Edgy arrived at Pumpkin Town and helped around a bit. He then left to explore Cam's road further, and after pondering about Diamond Bay's downfall, he devised a theory that The Order had actually griefed him to recruit him and his members: and so began his brief insurgency against The Order. Edgy joined Atom's resistance against them, and snuck around Pumpkin Town before he was discovered, killed and sent back to spawn. Edgy decided that this rebellion was futile, apologised to them, and went back to Pumpkin town. After Lethal ordered him to be killed and he was sent back to spawn again, a member of the order, erikblue1234, suggested that he found another town, and so he did just that.

The Kingdom of Emipea
Edgy travelled to X 15500 Z 0 and founded the town of Emipea's Heart (known to most simply as Emipea) under the group The Kingdom of Emipea. Edgy invited quite a few people to Emipea, the most notably being Sy1en, electrozap and David_1267. He ran the group for some time, even suffering a rebellion from a recruit that didn't quite know english and a minor troll, but both were dealt with by him, his members, and his army of dogs. He also founded New Birchwood to be a secondary town, inspired by The Order's multiple town system.

Edgy's Inactive Period
One day, Edgy decided to not log on. This went on for around three weeks. When he came back, he found his kingdom barren and everyone was inactive. During this period of inactivity, The Apathy War occured. Edgy learned from electrozap that he had taken over the group and gone to New Birchwood with everyone else where he encountered an Apathy member. Without Edgy, the group had dispersed and everyone had gone their seperate ways.

Dire Keep
Wanting to continue playing with a group, Edgy saw a player named Stornwald asking for people to join a group he was setting up. Edgy accepted, and travelled to a castle on an island that Stornwald built named Dire Keep. There he met Fallen014 and FireFox2234. Edgy helped to design the government system for the young group: A council would elect a King or Queen who would rule until someone on the council deemed them unfit to rule, and the vote would be held again. Stornwald was elected as the first king, beating Edgy by one vote. He built a house a ways away from the main castle but still on the same island. Edgy was anti-Order, along with the majority of the inhabitants, when Camorrista and Lethal showed up at the island with their merging proposal. Edgy missed most of the negotiations.

Post Dire Keep
After Dire Keep, Edgy went into a period where he didn't know what to do. He did attempt to revive Emipea, but the second Kingdom's life was cut short by AceXSD killing Edgy and taking all of his stuff. Edgy then got the idea of starting yet another group: The Byzantine Empire.

The Byzantine Empire
The Byzantine Empire was founded a few thousand blocks south of Emipea's Heart, and the capital city was named Testantinople after Edgy's name at the time. Edgy still to this day regards Byzantium as the turning point in his career on VanillaCraft, as it was the last noob town he ran. Byzantium was another evolution of Edgy's group structure: He was the Basileus, and there were only two roles, Senator and Citizen. This was also the first group to have an official Discord Server, but the rules and members were not posted on it and joining the discord was not compulsory. Unfortunately for Edgy, Byzantium fell after it was raided by muddyviolet, who Edgy invited to the town.

Waiting for the reset
Edgy was again without a 'purpose' after Byzantium fell, and with the map reset right around the corner, he didn't want to commit to anything. So he joined The Order, living in Iron Haven and then Haxoria. Edgy ended up leaving however, and very near to the end of the map he sold the locations of Pumpkin Town and Haxoria to FireFox.

The Holy Roman Empire
Around this time, Edgy was invited to The Holy Roman Empire by BlackRaptorMoses. The HRE was a group-to-be that was going to exist in the server as a real group once the reset happened, but at that point it was just a discord server. BlackRaptorMoses then invited Lethal to the discord server and gave him ownership, and Lethal rebranded the group to The Templar Inquisition.

The Templar Inquisition
Edgy was a Duke in The Templar Inquisition, and played a key role in the group. He was secretly anti-Lethal and was working with Camorrista and FireFox2234 to try to oust him, but he never had the courage to publically do it since he believed everyone else was loyal to Lethal. The Templars had a structure where Edgy would run a puppet state called The Byzantine Empire to filter members and grow until The Templars could reveal themselves and rise up. He also acted as a diplomat to try and negotiate a settlement for the constant bickering between themselves and The Order due to Lethal's assertive nature. For a while, Edgy negotiated independence from The Templars but rejoined after Byzantium died due to inactivity. The Templars was also inactive for a while, so Edgy founded the town of Riverside. Camorrista would show up at the town (a plot Cam and Edgy created to try and make Lethal angry to worsen people's view on him) and it was abandoned, so FirePhoenix and AerialSN1PER, two members, would found FireFall, The Templar's last base. Edgy built an acacia house at FireFall and didn't do much until the coup against Lethal.

The People's Republic of People
After all of Lethal's council overthrew him, they reformed the group into the People's Republic of People, a name Edgy jokingly came up with. erikblue1234, one of the people in the coup, liked that name, and after a popular vote, it was implemented.

Edgy proposed the idea of the council being democratically elected, and stayed in the council for the 3 elections that did happen. He also helped to draft up most of the laws and the entire constitution of the group.

Edgy and Rhansen710 founded Rhansenville as the first recruitment town of the PRoP, and Edgy founded New Diamond Bay, Sheeptown and Three Islands. Him and Erik did most, if not all of the recruitment into the group.

Nearing the end of Erik-Era PRoP, Edgy and Fallen began plotting to overthrow Erik since he was becoming more friendly to The Order and they feared he was attempting to merge the two groups: something the two were very much against. Their fears passed however as he, Pipitone and doyle125 were the only ones who left, and no-one else.

After Erik's departure, Edgy became the new owner of the discord server. To prevent The Order from knowing everything, Edgy and Fallen saw that all ambassadors were purged from the discord server, and they founded Highturf, the new capital of the PRoP. After the New Diamond Bay was raided, Edgy founded Carlisle. He was also present in the skirmish with Bflamed on the ice road, after one attacked the other.

When Edgy and Bflamed had their skirmish on The Ice Road, Edgy declared war on the Circle of Freedom, Bflamed's group. He sent HonusOdin to inside the CoF, which he did successfully. Him and Fallen then led the attack and the Raid of Vacation Island commenced.

Edgy reluctantly agreed to rename the group to The People's Legion once it became clear that PRoP seemed like a silly name to many of its members.

Edgy was not present for most of The War of The Dog, being away for the weekend. Once he saw the aftermath he jumped onto the power vacuum that Fallen had left and proclaimed himself Emperor of The People's Legion.

The People's Legion
Once Edgy became emperor, he discovered the location of the next capital, Edgestantinople. Him and HonusOdin would work on its walls for a month until they were completed.

He also got the idea to build a giant gold farm at the city, and painstakingly mined out most of the 6 double chests of obsidian required, using the end pillars and a beacon reluctantly provided by ayden327 (under a different name).

Edgy oversaw the fucking with of OrangeStoneTorch, and led Operation Kingslayer until AdaRose betrayed The Legion and Edgy called in The Order to help defend Bel Air. He wasn't present for The Battle of Bel Air.

Edgy was quite involved in running The Legion, and wanted a more centralised group. This was contrary to the beliefs of Mr_Murphy, a prominent member of The Legion and the leader of the town of Den Lumen, and Edgy worked against himself in this regard by insisting on each town having its own overseer in a feudal style. This would create problems that were not easily resolved, often resulting in clashes between Edgy and Murphy in the council. Over time the problems would keep adding up and resulted in the fall of The Legion.

The Fall of The Legion
Irritated by Mr_Murphy's bending of his rules and Lumen drifting further and further towards independence, Edgy provided a choice to him: abandon Lumen's discord server or leave The Legion. Murphy chose the latter option. This caused a split in the group, with many people joining the Provinces of Lumen. After the 1.15 Map reset, Edgy became inactive for a while, and so The Legion died.

Post-Legion Era
After The Legion fell, Edgy became a solo player for a time. He would construct his own base and achieve 'godhood through infinite totems' via a raid farm, before making the descision to attempt to reform The Legion as The Remnant.

It was around this time when Edgy discovered the potential that End Crystals had. Before then, most people saw crystals as quite a niche weapon only good for traps, despite them having existed for many years. When he one-shotted mutterstarb with a crystal, and used them against TooAtomic in a minor skirmish to save wertia3's life, more people saw End Crystals as a viable alternative to conventional pvp, and the server's pvp meta began to drift towards them.

Edgy also met Jorgur and became allies with The Heretics. He fought Yeet Gang alongside the Heretics in the Battle of Temptown, scoring most of the kills against NexusTheGoy and thevincenator.

The Remnant
Edgy was the Imperator of The Remnant, starting Remnant Town Alpha, its only town, and introducing a strict recruitment policy. The Remnant did not last long though, as D4RON leaked the coordinates of Remnant Town Alpha.

The Heretics
After The Remnant, Edgy took a break from the server for a while, returning only a couple of weeks later. When he did he joined The Heretics and was swiftly promoted to Warlock status, then Overlord. He later stepped down to prevent The Heretics from getting any more of a bad reputation, primarily from ncarmillo30.

Edgy participated in the Siege of the Menger Sponge, and was the one that ultimately killed D4RON using an end crystal.

The Dragon Council
Edgy was initially planning on attempting to kill the ender dragon alone, but a few days before the event he recieved an invite from Fallen014 and joined her team. There were only 3 members including himself, 1 of which was inactive, and so he invited hamoodi123 and benchkcb to the team. Together they managed to win the event and decided to form a group together.

Since the Heretics was close to dying, Edgy left them in favour of his new friends, and they began working on a town. Unfortunately for him, due to differences in raiding/griefing philosophy between members, The Dragon Council did not last long. This was the final thing that ultimately led to Edgy's involvement in The Summer Wars.

War Against Lumen
Since he was out of luck when it came to running groups, Edgy decided to take a more destructive path in life. On the 1st August 2020, he teamed up with Tynominally, MissPrism, and The Dongos to grief Rouffernaught Outpost, a Lumen recruitment town, and Comet, a town belonging to the Lunarians, a sub-faction of Lumen.

The next day, him, hamoodi123, and AT&T grief Lumen City (edit of the grief). This gained Edgy a lot of hate from Lumen members, when before he was not taken as much of a serious threat. Tynominally and MissPrism would get banned for "toxicity", and Edgy considered leaving the server, but he chose not to, citing that he still had unfinished work.

On the 3rd August, Edgy was mostly lavacasting Lumen City some more, and the cast got very big. Early into the morning of the 4th August, he fought ncarmillo30, catching him off guard with an end crystal which popped his totem, making him flee.

On the 5th August, him, Fallen014, and later D4RON griefed Lunaris. Initially, Fallen did not want to be revealed, but she was found by Horry70 with no invisibility on, and Edgy accidentally killed her in an attempt to kill Horry.

After Lunaris, Edgy was out of towns to grief and so stopped for a while. He did manage to kill ncarmillo30 in The End however.

Later on, Edgy led a M.I.C.R.O.W.A.V.E grief against Tulipsfountain, a Lumen recruitment town. There him and the other griefers killed wertia3, as the day prior to the grief he learned that wertia was insiding M.I.C.R.O.W.A.V.E for Lumen.

War Against TSS
At the beginning of September 2020, AT&T were unbanned. They began to destroy 'Simon', the spawn dragon The Secret Society had built, and Edgy joined them. This effectively severed the truce that M.I.C.R.O.W.A.V.E and TSS had made, and put them at war. Edgy, Ty and Alk used some of the obsidian they had gathered to 'reinforce' the southern bridge at spawn - in reality this was just making it easier for Edgy to kill people. And kill people he did: On the same day, he managed to kill ncarmillo30, TooAtomic, BabyBurrito and Vini_Stronda thanks to the bridge.

Later on in the month, M.I.C.R.O.W.A.V.E griefed The Void's base, but were forced to flee after TSS showed up en masse.

It was around this point that Edgy began to feel a particular disliking towards TSS, even more so than Lumen, so he ended his war against Lumen and solely focused on TSS.

Edgy was present at The Battle of Lagom, getting killed by Atomic in a trap, and then killing him later on the same day. He also griefed Aska with Annick30, and managed to kill KingGroyo there.

Edgy's and the rest of M.I.C.R.O.W.A.V.E.'s plans to attack Gelato were foiled when Annick30 leaked plans to erikblue1234, who then warned Rebecka. Despite this, Edgy went alone and partially griefed the base with aria_minecraft.

After Gelato was griefed, TSS had been 'sufficiently humbled' in Edgy's eyes, and so the war ended once the Soviet Stardust Crusaders were formed.

Soviet Stardust Crusaders
After the war, Edgy chose to (temporarily) end his griefing spree and settle down to form another group, and with Najivka's help, the Soviet Stardust Crusaders was born.

During the Pluto incident, Edgy managed to kill Birkou while he was in the middle of raiding.

Despite the history between Edgy and them, many members of The Secret Society and SSC became quite close and after a few months of friendship an alliance was formed. This led Edgy to briefly return to fucking with Lumen, albeit in a less destructive manner: with the help of others, a war was faked between TSS and SSC, originally as a meme, but once Edgy realised that some Lumen members took it seriously he jumped on the opportunity to scam them. The scam was successful, but it was abandoned after the first package of resources was recieved since some co-conspirators began to feel bad about it.

Eventually, when SSC fell, Edgy quit the server for a third of a year, where he learned various things via experiences on semi-anarchy servers.

Return
EdgyCommunist69 returned in May 2020 and since then he has griefed the gulag, a spawn base built by DarthObsidian64, and killed a few people near spawn. He said he will not be doing much productive until 1.18 however.
