𝓐ppearance

Phil is a human with light skin, blue eyes, and dirty blond hair. His default skin is a green jinbei, a black undershirt with a red heart, black haori, a red belt, sandals, and a green-and-white striped bucket hat with an emerald hanging off of it. The skin is based on Kisuke Urahara from the anime/manga Bleach.

Phil's winter clothing is very similar to Techno's, consisting of a steel chest plate, maroon arm wear, white shoulder pads, black boots and navy blue pants. His trademark hat is also replaced with a blue scale replica of it.

He has black wings sprouting from his back and wears a long, dark string necklace with a red hardcore heart.

𝓟ersonality

Of all the SMP members, Phil is one of the most respected and seen as relatively powerful despite not holding official titles in any nation.

Usually, he is resilient, kind, and hard-working, taking care to complete mundane tasks such as filling creeper craters and repairing paths. He initially appeared to be peaceful, lending a hand to people in need. Despite this, Phil is far from a pacifist, not afraid to shed his peaceful nature and resume his classic chaotic attitude when pressured by the people around him.

Phil is a no-nonsense person, wise and willing to discipline people if they break rules or cause problems. He is easily exasperated at their chaos, and not hesitant to leave people to deal with the consequences if they continue to act up despite his intervention and warning.

Phil is efficient and seeks to solve problems in the most straightforward way possible - for example, when he identified that L'Manberg was the corruptive force behind Wilbur's spiral into madness, and the violence of the Butcher Army, he sought to end it as soon as possible by assisting in its destruction. Phil is not afraid of taking a stance when he needs to.

Though he works for the betterment of people as a whole, this broad perspective of the world blinds Phil to nuance, as demonstrated by his failure to show empathy to Ghostbur in the aftermath of Doomsday.

𝓑oundaries/𝓔xtras

• He will only let people extremely close to him touch his wings

• He often has bird-like instincts, such as preening his feathers or holding specific items, like rocks, close to him as if they were his children.

• His Twitch chat is represented in the SMP as a murder of crows only he (and Kristin) can understand. These crows follow him around, and he has to calm them constantly. The bits the chat donates are trinkets the crows bring him, and the channel/subscriber badges are necklaces he's given different crows

• He only has one canonic life on the server, compared to everyone else starting with three. This is because of his hardcore world

THE SYNDICATE

The Syndicate is an underground organization started by Technoblade and Philza on January 18, 2021. The members of the Syndicate promote anarchy and wish to diminish tyranny in all its forms. The Syndicate's base is located in the arctic north near the homes of Technoblade, Philza, and Ranboo. Its meeting room is in a stronghold and features immovable end portal frames, although the members of the Syndicate are unaware of their true nature (though Ranboo has some suspicions), and use it as their meeting table. The Syndicate acts as the primary fighting force of the Anarchist Refuge, as well as acting as a general representative for the faction as a whole in conflicts.

L’MANBERG

L'Manberg, alternatively spelt as L'Manburg, was an independent nation-state in the Dream SMP. It declared its independence from the Greater Dream SMP on July 29, 2020 and gained its independence after the Dream Team SMP vs. L'Manberg War on August 2, 2020. It was reformed as Manberg on September 22, 2020, but was restored on November 16, 2020, until it was destroyed and permanently disbanded on January 6, 2021.

L'Manberg was initially structured as a centralized autocracy led by Wilbur Soot as its self-appointed President with TommyInnit as his vice-president, establishing a ruler-for-life method of leadership that was initially supported by its people, but as civil conflicts emerged Wilbur moved to establish a democratic system to consolidate his power. The First L'Manberg Election led to a great upset that placed Jschlatt in power. Assuming dictatorial powers as Emperor of the now renamed Manberg, his Administration revoked the citizenships of Wilbur and Tommy, sparking a chain of events that would lead to the Manberg Rebellion and ultimately, Jschlatt's downfall in the Manberg vs Pogtopia War.

Following the fall of Manberg, Wilbur attempted to elect Tommy as the third President, but he declined the role. The position was then passed to Tubbo. After Technoblade attacked L'Manberg in accordance with his anarchist beliefs, and Wilbur detonated L'Manberg as a traitor to the nation, L'Manberg once again became politically unstable. Out of fear of further antagonizing Technoblade, L'Manberg under the Tubbo Administration was organized as a democratic collective. As peace and prosperity returned, the nation transitioned into a parliamentary democracy, with its citizens having the right to hold and vote for parliamentary positions.

On January 5, 2021, Dream and Technoblade declared formal war on L'Manberg. The next day, several former L'Manberg citizens decided to assist the nation while some citizens decided to defect from the nation and sabotage its war efforts. Forced to fight the Doomsday War nearly half an hour earlier than scheduled, the remainder of the L'Manberg Army, despite being boosted by other neutral members and Dream SMP citizens, failed to repel the attack. L'Manberg was irreparably destroyed in the conflict and abandoned as a smoldering ruin.

L'Manberg, at the beginning, was rather small, enclosed by thick blackstone walls in around a 3 by 3 chunk area with a small outpost that belonged to TommyInnit. After the War for Independence, L'Manberg expanded slowly, eventually annexing a lake and hill to the west as well as a claim of the ocean to the east. As L'Manberg entered its second administration (the Jschlatt Administration), it was reformed as Manberg. Though Schlatt made promises to expand, he barely did any expanding, only annexing the tower that Eret had built to the south, Rutabagville due to an alliance, and a section of the Prime Path to the north. With Manberg's defeat during the Manberg vs Pogtopia war, the L'Manbergians began rapid "reclamation" of land that they believed was rightfully theirs. They reserved Pogtopia as a colony, took the prime path leading up to the embassy as well as the rest of Tommy's property, Purpled's nearby cabin, the Pogback railway that led to Pogtopia, Eret's second tower, and a new terraformed area for a "poor people area." However, L'Manberg had little power to enforce these claims and mostly controlled only the L'Manberg mainland.

THE BUTCHER ARMY

After Tommy had been exiled, Quackity showed the rest of the cabinet a secret room full of pictures of Technoblade and other people who were enemies of the state with crosses on their eyes, defining them as excommunicated. This eventually lead to the formation of the Butcher Army, whose goal was to hunt down and kill Technoblade for his crimes against L'Manberg during the Manberg vs Pogtopia War.

On December 16, they decided to execute this plan, forcibly entering Ph1LzA's house because they knew he had connections to Technoblade. They were proven correct when they found a compass Phil had received from Techno. Because Phil refused to comply with them, Tubbo placed him under house arrest. The Butcher Army then traveled to Technoblade's cabin with the help of the compass and confronted him. However, Technoblade killed two of the army members and only stopped when Quackity held his horse Carl hostage. To save his horse, Technoblade gave up and had to give all of his items except a secret totem of undying. They brought him back to L'Manberg, where he was placed in a cage. They then revealed that instead of holding a trial for Technoblade's crimes, they were going to execute him. However, the execution failed, and after being saved by a Totem of Undying, Technoblade escaped with the help of Dream and Punz, taking one of Quackity's canon lives in the process.[31] Phil then mocked the Butcher Army for their incompetence as they retreated to their meeting room, where Quackity blamed the failure of the execution on Dream. The cabinet came to the decision to have another festival where they would execute Dream to punish him and to end his grasp on L'Manberg and the Greater Dream SMP. Ranboo and Fundy were given the role of the event organizers and Quackity was given the role of executioner.
