Sauce

"'Evil will never truly win, so long as you never let the light of good within you go out.'"Sauce, also known as SauceManBoyardee, was a character in the Phoenix SMP, owned by the user of the same name. He was first created in Febuary of 2021, and had been present in both the lore of the original world and the new world up to June 2nd, 2021, when the character was retired.

Appearance
Sauce is approximately 5'8, with fair skin, a slightly stocky build, and brown, curly hair. He most commonly wears a yellow and brown striped turtleneck sweater, blue jeans held up by a hefty work belt, blue lace up boots, and a metal visor that obscures more than half of the top of his face. Besides a few biological discrepancies, he looks like a normal human.

Biography
Sauce was born within the ocean of the old world, in what he described as a pit of blackstone that he emerged from. From how he describes things, by the time he became cognizant of his own self he had already aged physically and mentally to what would be considered as a human adult. Due to being born in the ocean, he had to mindlessly swim to the mainland in order to get a vague semblance of where he was. Upon meeting the members of the Cake Cult, they offered a place for Sauce to build a home on Mushroom Isle alongside them in exchange for a contract signing his allegiance to the cult.

Since then, he has experienced the following:
- At least 5 cumulative real world hours in The Pit, a parkour dungeon with no escape besides completion once entered.

- Watched his brother ve killed due to a genetic blood rage driving him mad

- Watched a man be brought back to life before his eyes

- Watched the Cake Cult's leader slowly go insane, eventually causing the cult's dismantling

- Escaped from burning his contract and himself in the fires of a forge as an exit protocol for the cult

- Went to war once, winning it with the most kills alongside his compatriots

- Experienced the old world's destruction

- Built the town of Macguire in the new world

- Allied with the Fire empire in exchange for resources

- Dealt with his father being killed

- Died of a heart attack"'I'm telling you now, I will never leave you again. You call for me and I'll come. I am responsible now, that is my purpose.'"

Biography (Spoilers)
As the forces of creation and destruction created their own entities from their energy, so too did the ever growing force of war that was rampant in the old world. The difference between Sauce and literal gods is that there was barely enough to make a person, let alone a god. The visor strapped to his face protected his head from leaking out a harmful energy called the Harbinger Effect, which would induce violence and conflict when nearby it. Sauce only ever removed his visor once, when it was knocked off of him fighting a war. Whether this had any part in the old world's eventual end is merely speculation.

Personality
Sauce is a content pacifist by heart and is a frequent advocate for peace instead of war, a sentiment that frequently causes him to disagree with the philosophies of many stronger antagonists within the SMP. Instead of combat, his passion is more drawn to architecture and carpentry, being known for his numerous houses and buildings that he makes on a near constant basis. His secondary passion is cartography, wherein he explores vast amounts of land and marks it down on various maps to display in his home as one large picture of the world.

Old World Sauce, despite being able to talk and act like an adult human, his brain took awhile to properly adjust, so he had close to no worldly knowledge and had a very childlike outlook on life. He kept to himself, frequently going along with whoever's plan he heard first, and offered to help whenever he could.

New World Sauce had finally caught up mentally by the time his town was founded, and at this point figured out how to give and deny his trust to people. Despite a very optimistic view on life, its meaning, and the idea of finding purpose within it, there are brief moments where his positive outlook falters as he gets reminded time and time again that there are forces in the world wanting to do him and his loved ones harm. He now feels more responsibility for the people around him but secretly fears that when the times comes, he will be too weak to make his assailants see reason. Upon realizing that there are people so much worse off than himself, he adopted a very protective approach to anyone and anything good, deciding that defense was his best offense. "'You need therapy, as do I.'"

Trivia
- Because Sauce irl plays minecraft on mute, it can be assumed that Sauce in canon is deaf and can only read lips and written words.

- Occasionally when rping with Sauce, there is a chance that a state dubbed "question mode" occurs where Sauce will continuously ask questions from a near endless supply. Nobody knows how he thinks of so many damn questions, but he does.
