Early Life

SquirrelMC joined on the 18th of June, and immediately began to move as far away from spawn as possible. He was quick to find a farm planted by The Hive Organisation to sustain himself. After obtaining diamond gear and tools, Squirrel was incredibly close to being ended by a creeper blast. After this close shave with death, he met Alcred outside the spawn zone. Alcred assisted Squirrel by giving him various items required for server survival, before Squirrel began his long trek out into the server. At around this time, Alcred's Cursed Pacts were ongoing, and with Squirrel's presence known by Alcred, he was made on offer. Unfortunately a player named Turtles2071 contested Squirrel for candidate as the next Gold Baron, (Alcred's offered pact). After discussing that an in-server duel would be difficult to host, the reset server was chosen as its location. Many players quickly joined to witness the event live, with even the server's owner Jake276493 arriving to watch. Squirrel and Turtles were both given full diamond gear and golden apples in preparation for the duel, and a pseudo arena lane was constructed by Doctor_Pancake and TheCosmicalKing. After a tense fight, SquirrelMC emerged victorious, his superior combos earning him the win. (Squirrel admitted at a much later date that this was his first ever duel).

Birth of the Gold Baron

After his victory, Alcred arranged a meeting with SquirrelMC, for his "reward". Owing to the name of the pacts, Squirrel's victory also came at a great cost. He was awarded full Netherite armor, already trimmed, save for the helmet. Upon Squirrel's head sat his new curse, a Piglin Head with a curse of binding enchantment. (SquirrelMC would GREATLY regret this decision in the future, stating he wasn't intending on playing as much as he did.) After the crowning of his new Gold Baron title, SquirrelMC decided that he would rather hang out at spawn around other people than go it alone.

Vigilante Work

Squirrel met up with known killer hunter, Th3eternal1, and became his accomplice of sorts, assisting in the hunting of player killers. During this time, a large chasm had been carved just North of Spawn Town by RedReaperxd on June 18th with the use of TnT bombers. SquirrelMC assembled a team and began his work of covering the entire hole with a layer of dirt. After around 4 hours, his team completed the task. After this achievement, SquirrelMC would go on to help eternal around spawn with tracking down and eliminating threats to the playerbase. Unfortunately, Squirrel wouldn't eliminate only threats. One day, with accusations thrown against a player named LightGreyPanda for killing a fellow player, SquirrelMC and Th3eternal1 located his logout at spawn town and constructed an obsidian box around him. Eternal brought up the idea of a fair duel to Panda, who accepted. Despite the protests of SquirrelMC, Eternal deconstructed the obsidian and allowed Panda to escape, who promptly fled to 8000, 8000, where he met up with his teammate InternetFound. They constructed a trapped portal, and invited Eternal to the location, where again Eternal dismissed SquirrelMC's warnings. The portal trap killed Eternal in mere moments after he stepped through, and with his death, SquirrelMC would dedicate his time at spawn to eliminating greifers and killers, just like Eternal had. Squirrel's next target was a player named EtoGlazer, someone who had joined in May, and rejoined in late June. EtoGlazer was found leaving Spawn Town to acquire TNT after destroying blocks at 0, 0 with a pickaxe. SquirrelMC chased him down and forced him to combat log, after which he constructed an obsidian lava trap around his log out location. Unfortunately when EtoGlazer joined later that night, he reconnected outside of the trap and escaped.

Co-Founder

On June 25th, SquirrelMC was still hovering around spawn as its guardian. With the construction of the Spawn Dome by Spalmipede, TheCosmicalKing was interested in forming a faction to dedicate to the protection of spawn. (Now that it had a beautiful build). Cosmical reached out to SquirrelMC, and the two formed a discord to discuss their plans for the newly created faction, The Order Of The Sanctum. The next day, ArtemyTheVorakh would join the duo, and afterward the group would go on to recruit the builder of the Dome, Spalmipede himself, as well as Bemf. The main concern of the Order, and SquirrelMC himself, at its founding was the protection of the Spawn Dome. The two biggest threats to the security of spawn was the trio of trappers, LightGreyPanda, InternetFound, and Ta7zzz. Several small skirmishes would occur at spawn between the two groups, usually ending in a logout stasis being triggered by the Trapper Trios. During this period, SquirrelMC had continued his vigilante work at spawn, constantly patrolling the dome along with Bemf, and ArtemyTheVorakh. Around this time he also picked up a new hobby however, head collection. When a player dies in Legendary Hardcore, their head is placed down as a block to be taken as a memento or trophy. SquirrelMC indulged this hobby of collection as he patrolled the spawn region, amassing quite the hoard, i.e. multiple shulkers worth. With this large collection of player heads, ArtemyTheVorakh suggested that a cemetery be constructed to house the heads. On June 27th, Artemy cleared out an area of a pale forest biome to begin construction, and a day later SquirrelMC and TheCosmicalKing arrived to kick the project off. Utilizing Artemy's wall design, they established a perimeter with TnT bombers and flint and steel and fenced in a majority of the cleared land. Graves were constructed, with SquirrelMC attaching epitaphs to each grave built. SquirrelMC's most notable achievements during the construction was his contribution to Order stores of deepslate and tuff, and excavation of the Cemetery's catacombs, as well as being perhaps one of the largest donors of heads to the Order. SquirrelMC and TheCosmicalKing became close friends over the course of the construction, often hanging out from afternoons until 3 AM in the morning. On July 6th, Cosmical took a two week long break from the server, and during this period Squirrel established another friendship with notable player MikoYey, and generally found himself as a rising pillar of the server's community. Many found him an upstanding and friendly player. On July 18th when Cosmical returned from his hiatus, ArtemyTheVorakh was killed at spawn by a zombie whilst afk. This death was a large blow to SquirrelMC, who's bond with Artemy had grown significantly. SquirrelMC and TheCosmicalKing worked to finish Artemy's half built cathedral at the Sanctum Yard Cemetery in his honor, before declaring their work done on the 25th of July.

Late Life

After the Cemetery's construction, SquirrelMC played a pivotal role in the planning of the Order's next project, Hammerfall. The location was scouted out by SquirrelMC and TheCosmicalKing over the course of a couple of days, before in-depth planning began. Hammerfall's architecture was decided to be a form of High-Gothic, and Cosmical drew up a rudimentary diagram of the base's dimensions, (later refined by Spalmipede). SquirrelMC was among the first to the Order's site of operational planning, and transported the majority of the Order's materials to the site. With the close alliance of Team Vortex being established, SquirrelMC travelled to the late Aqita's base to recover his stash of heads. What SquirrelMC found there would ignite new speculation concerning the Dragon egg conflict, as in the stash was Thridz and Yehomere's heads. Squirrel brought these finds back to the Order, but declared that Aqita did not know where the egg was after a lengthy conversation with the player on discord. After the surprise of finding the heads thought lost, Squirrel returned to his usual routine, killing threats and finding heads. He also helped construction of the Hammerwall around the new base. By this time, Squirrel was one of the most popular figures on LHC, with over 16 days of playtime, and around 7-8 player kills under his belt. That is why it was so shocking to the playerbase when on August 19th, 12:13 AM EST, SquirrelMC experienced kinetic energy whilst ripping through the sky on a riptide trident. SquirrelMC's client experienced a desync before he collided with a mountain, and the lag allowed his totem to be popped and he was killed. This death was most shocking to MikoYey and TheCosmicalKing, all three of which had formed a tight friendship. SquirrelMC left the server with his final message as "dirt", harkening back to his achievements at repairing the spawn region. Squirrel was also freed of his curse, but of course his mortal coil as well. ShyAlly, an Order knight, recovered Squirrel's player head and piglin head. A few days later, a dual funeral service for SquirrelMC and PoorGrammar313 was held at Squirrel's ranch, where his piglin head was displayed instead of his player head. (Owing to the fact Squirrel's real face had never been glimpsed by anyone except Alcred). Squirrel remains a constant presence in the discord, where he longs to become a reset admin to recover a shard of the experience he had whilst playing on LegendaryHardcore. Squirrel's death was also the catalyst for the worst day in server history, inadvertently starting The Longest Day.
