Box of Bevan Underbuck Files

Dust billows as the file box lands on the table. While many archives in the Interdimensional Rumor Mill are unified in some way, this... definitely isn’t one of them. The accompanying Rumor Registry explains all of the contents... wherever it is... but for now you grab the folder labelled IF-73.842 and start reading...

Background

Bevan Underbuck is a Late Cretaceous, 72-million-year-old, bird-like dromaeosaurid theropod dinosaur. The holotype specimen was discovered in 1993 by 14-year-old fossil hunter York Silk. The skeleton that Silk discovered was approximately 95 percent complete. Because of its completeness, it has been compared to the 'Rlosetta Stone' that enabled archaeologists to translate Egyptian hieroglyphics. The completeness and undistorted qualities of the bones were critical in helping scientists further understand the dinosaur-bird link.

Research indicated that Bevan may have had mutually opposable first and third fingers and a forelimb maneuverability that would allow the hand to reach its mouth. This would have given the animal the ability to "hold" food in its front limbs and place it in its mouth, in a similar manner to some modern-day small mammals. However, Bevan lacked the ability to bring their arms past a suborbital position, resulting in them being a little bit terrible at Blaseball.

After being wrangled into a Jazz Hands uniform, Bevan performed admirably for a 72-million-year-old, bird-like dromaeosaurid theropod dinosaur. Indeed, despite lacking the maneuverability to throw a ball or swing a bat, Bevan managed to play the flute very well. Furthermore, like all theropods, Bevan could not pronate their hands, and thus, was physically incapable of doing jazz hands. Research into if this played a role in their eventual expulsion from the team has been inconclusive.

Trade to the Fridays

When the call for the trade to the Hawai'i Fridays was made, Bevan was once again put through the arduous process of receiving a new uniform for the team. The Fridays were happy to welcome their latest addition, though they did note that the climate did not seem to agree with their new dromaeosaurid theropod teammate. Bevan did notably gain an ally with fellow theropod Fletcher Yamamoto, despite their evolutionary separation of 72 million years.

Trade to the Crabs

Once Bevan was traded to the Crabs to ascend, their jazz handlers declared that they "are not getting Bevan into another uniform" and promptly quit on the spot.

-===Background ===
+During the {{BetaSeason|6#Election Results|@ election}}, Underbuck's pitching increased by {{Star Rating|0.5}} due to the Shoe Thieves' '''Mutually Arising''' [[blessing]].
-Underbuck is a scrappy underdog who always gives 110%, but given their utter lack of talent, that doesn't amount to much. Their previous team's coaching staff believed that if Bevan could dial it up to 143%, they'd have a real shot at [[The Underleagues]]. Underbuck's parents were known to be good friends with the Jazz's ownership, and major donors to the Breckenridge Jazz Hands Charitable Trust.
-Underbuck is also an impressive Jazz Flutist.
+===Season 10===
+During the {{BetaSeason|10#Election Results|@ election}}, Underbuck was traded to the [[Baltimore Crabs]] for [[Montgomery Bullock]] due to the Fridays' '''People's Champion''' blessing.
-===Possession by Landry Violence===
+===Season 12===
-In semi-finals of postseason Season 2, an arrangement was made with the [[Hades Tigers]] to have [[Landry Violence]] possess Underbuck for a little help in beating the Pies. While in this state, he was referred to as Bevan Violence and switched to he/him pronouns. While Underbuck struggled to contain this newfound power, in the bottom of the fifth inning of Day 105 he hit an unprecedented 3-run homer.
+Underbuck was moved into the shadows for the [[Baltimore Crabs]] in the {{BetaSeason|12#Election_Results|@  Election}} via the {{BetaSeason|12#Wills_2| '''Foreshadow'''}} Will. Underbuck was replaced by [[Jacoby Podcast]].
-Underbuck is renowned for being one of the few Blaseball players to have of a [[Landry Violence]] possession alive, though not entirely whole. Since then, Underbuck has been known to simply stand in a corner and stare blankly at the ground as if waiting for something. When asked about the legendary homer in a postgame interview, they had to say "I have been into the soul of Violence, and it has been into me. Look upon my marks, and tell me that there is salvation in our future." They also became significantly hotter.

-===Trade to the Hawaii Fridays===
+==Gallery==
-After Underbuck's trade to the Fridays, their former fugue state seems to have loosened, fueled by the soft ocean breeze, abundance of frosty beverages, and the ability to "jam" with fellow musicians [[James Mora]] and [[Stevenson Heat]] at the team's cookouts. Although they still show traces of their dark past at times, they are helped by [[Terrell Bradley]], who has pledged to be sure that "his kid makes it through all this just fine."
