Most Wanted Characters
The BlueBerry

The BlueBerry

The meaning of "blueberry" can vary slightly based on the gaming community and context, but it generally refers to a player who is not part of one's squad or party. The term originates from the way teammates are often represented on the minimap or HUD (head-up display) in blue. Players in your squad or party may have different colors on the map, but those who are not part of your group are commonly represented in blue. Therefore, a "blueberry" is someone who is marked in blue on the map. In some cases, the term may carry a slightly negative connotation, suggesting that the "blueberry" is not as coordinated or communicative as members of one's squad. It's often used humorously and may not always imply a lack of skill, but rather a lack of coordination due to not being part of the same organized group.

Character 2

The Meat Shield

a player who takes on the role of absorbing damage and attention from enemies, essentially acting as a protective barrier for their teammates. The player intentionally places themselves in the line of fire to draw enemy attacks away from more vulnerable or strategically important team members. The term "meat shield" implies that the player is akin to a shield made of flesh, suggesting that their primary function is to absorb damage rather than deal it. This role is common in team-based games where different players take on specific roles, and having a player designated as a meat shield can be a strategic choice to protect more fragile or high-damage teammates during battles.

Hockey Night in Canada


In 1892, Lord Stanley of Preston made a historic pledge to donate a challenge cup for the best ice hockey team in Canada. Although not an avid hockey enthusiast like my dad (more on that later), the cultural impact of the sport was undeniable. Toronto, despite not securing a cup victory for over half the life of the trophy, witnessed an unyielding passion for the game. Seats were impossible to come by, bars overflowed during Leafs games, and hockey became the catalyst for familial rifts across Canada – a testament to the profound love people had for their teams.


My dad epitomized this fervor. In the 1970s, Saturday nights revolved around the game, and nothing else happened until the final buzzer. I played the role of the manual remote, flipping channels until the advent of cable boxes with extra channels. Engaging in every hockey trend, my dad crafted a Leafs pyramid of power using my sparse hockey card collection, newspaper clippings, and an abundance of blue and white vibes. He even affixed his prized Dave Keon autograph, the revered greatest Toronto Maple Leaf, on the pyramid – a collector's dream.



Despite the Leafs' last Stanley Cup triumph occurring in 1967, when they outplayed Montreal in six games, my dad never witnessed another championship victory. The closest he came was when Gretzky thwarted Toronto's playoff hopes. Sadly, my dad passed in '96, and almost 30 years later, the Leafs are yet to bring the coveted cup home. The quest continues, but the memories of shared hockey rituals endure.

St Patrick’s nightmare


 

Fucking Leperchauns

Once upon a time in the enchanted land of Shamrock Grove, a fierce conflict known as the Leprechaun Wars unfolded. The peaceful leprechaun clans, each guarding their coveted pots of gold, found themselves entangled in a bitter struggle for supremacy.

The leader of the O'Reilly clan, Seamus the Swift, coveted the legendary Pot of Endless Gold rumored to possess unparalleled magical powers. Igniting the flames of war, Seamus sought to unite all pots of gold under his rule.


The Wars raged on, with leprechauns employing clever traps, mischievous illusions, and cunning strategies. Rainbows, once symbols of joy, became harbingers of impending battles. The grove echoed with the clashing sounds of tiny swords and the mischievous laughter of leprechauns engaged in skirmishes.

In the midst of the chaos, a wise elder named Fiona sought a path to end the strife. She discovered a forgotten legend that spoke of a mystical unity among the leprechaun clans, transcending the allure of gold. With a glint of hope, Fiona embarked on a journey to share this ancient wisdom.

Through heartfelt tales of shared heritage and the importance of unity, Fiona managed to sway the hearts of the leprechaun leaders. Slowly but surely, the once-warring clans began to see the futility of their conflict.

As the unity spread, a magical event occurred: the Pot of Endless Gold emerged, shimmering with a radiant glow. It symbolized the newfound harmony among the leprechaun clans, an end to the Wars, and a shared commitment to prosperity.

However, the leprechauns soon learned a valuable lesson about the fragility of peace. With unity, the once-infinite pot began to dwindle, revealing that its magic thrived on cooperation. As greed crept back into the hearts of some leprechauns, the pot diminished.

Determined to preserve the lessons learned, the wise Fiona gathered the leprechaun leaders once more. Together, they devised a plan to ensure lasting peace. Instead of hoarding gold, each clan contributed a piece to a communal treasure, fostering cooperation and shared prosperity.

And so, Shamrock Grove became a beacon of unity, and the Leprechaun Wars became a distant memory. The pot of gold, once a source of conflict, now stood as a symbol of the enduring strength found in cooperation and shared purpose. And in the hearts of the leprechauns, the wisdom of Fiona's fables lived on for generations to come.
