See Emblem Warhorse (bar) for the establishment of the same name.

Emblem Warhorse is a player in the Shadows for the Seattle Garages, and has been with the team since the Season 19 Elections.

Official League Records

Warhorse joined the ILB as a lineup player in the Shadows for the Seattle Garages as the Garages' Season 11 Playoff Birth.

During the Season 19 elections, Warhorse joined the Garages' active roster in exchange for Brisket Friendo as a result of the Garages' Foreshadow will.

On Season 21, Day 79, Warhorse retreated to the Shadows in exchange for Oliver Loofah at The Hotdogfingers Memorial Climate Pledge Garage and Parking Facility via the Ratified Voicemail.

COMMUNITY REPORTS
The remainder of this article contains lore created collaboratively by the Blaseball community.

Background

Emblem Warhorse describes many things: a bar, a band, a Blaseball player, but most importantly, a community. The Emblem Warhorse is a dive bar in Seattle, and Emblem Warhorse is a collective of people who have at some point in their life found refuge within its walls, becoming Patrons of The Emblem Warhorse. Patrons can be found doing a variety of activities, including (but certainly not limited to) celebrating after a minor league blaseball game, chatting with fellow motorcycle gang members, performing in the group's band (titled Emblem Warhorse), performing at the bar's drag shows under the moniker Emblem Warhorse, or simply enjoying the atmosphere of the bar. A watchful reader may have noticed that some of these activities involve being named Emblem Warhorse; this stems from the bar’s motto: “If you’re here, you’re Emblem Warhorse.” Upon entering the bar, one's name becomes Emblem Warhorse for the duration of one's stay. All are Emblem Warhorse. All is Emblem Warhorse.

Warhorses who frequent the bar often note having never seen the bar before finding it, despite it being located across the street from the Queen Anne Dicks Drive In. Some speculate the bar is only visible when one is truly prepared to find it. The exception to this rule is when the bar hosts events, though visitors who are not meant to become a Patron often find themselves shooed out the door by The Emblem Warhorse itself. Visitors have reported experiencing this phenomenon differently, some finding chairs feeling more uncomfortable, others noticing the water tasting off or the music being just a little too loud. Some have taken to challenging The Emblem Warhorse, ready to prove themselves worthy candidates of the Emblem Warhorse name. It is unclear at this point if any such challenges have been successful.

After the name Emblem Warhorse appeared on the Seattle Garages active roster, at least one Warhorse has been chosen to play in each Garages game. How a Warhorse is chosen for play on a given day is unclear, as Patrons have given conflicting reports. It is possible that there is no clear way of deciding play, or that it changes from day to day. Some cite a competitive game of dlarts, others claim they simply feel the compulsion to pick up the bat and head out the doors.

Qualifications of becoming an Emblem Warhorse

Of the players who take up the moniker Emblem Warhorse, only two things are consistent:

  • They have at one point in time been considered a regular at The Emblem Warhorse, and have been deemed worthy.
  • They are required to wear the Emblem, a design featuring an upside-down chess knight, somewhere on their person.

The bar has a strict no quadruped policy, though there have been known instances of quadruped Emblem Warhorses managing to get around this rule.


Patrons of the Emblem Warhorse

Many people and beings have come to take up the moniker of Emblem Warhorse throughout time, as deemed worthy by The Emblem Warhorse bar. Below is one such Warhorse.

This time, the Interdimensional Rumor Mill reveals a Patron Rumor from IF-47.906 out of its Patron Rumor Registry...

Emblem "Emmie" Warhorse

Emblem “Emmie” Warhorse is a middle-aged butch Korean woman who is usually seen tending to the Emblem Warhorse bar with Mme. W or riding with the Warhorse’s outlaw motorcycle club. She has been around the Warhorse for as long as anyone can remember and serves a protector to both the bar and its patrons.

While Mme. W serves as a guide to newcomers of the establishment, Emmie tends to look after those who have been around for a while and is always ready to serve a drink and some sardonic advice to those who need it. If the situation is particularly dire she has been known to bust out one of her world famous bear hugs. These hugs are so good it is said they put the receiver in a state of euphoria for the next 24 hours.

When not working Emmie enjoys riding with the Warhorse’s biker gang and claims the shadows are the best place to ride. She has also been known to participate in the Warhorse’s drag shows as a king. Her persona is always cowboy themed and she is notorious for her complicated lasso tricks.

One of the few things widely known about Emmie’s personal life is her long standing relationship with fellow mysterious barkeep Madame Emblem Warhorse, with whom she is often found tending the bar with. Emmie is notably the only individual capable of flustering the Madam's otherwise unshakable cryptic persona. Due to their evident intimacy, the two of them are presumed to know a great deal about each other's cryptic origins, though they are both as guarded about their partner's life as they are their own - if not more.

Emmie’s drink of choice is whiskey. Her emblem is a tattoo on her upper left arm and is usually visible due to her preference for tank tops. How Emmie became a patron of the Warhorse is the source of several tall tales including stories of her single handedly fighting off a rival biker group, building all the furniture of the Warhorse in a day and deadlifting two motorcycles at once to save someone trapped underneath. Any attempts at discovering the truth of the matter have been futile.

Despite her many other skills she is not particularly good at Blaseball.
