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-25.740 out of its Patron Rumor Registry...

Emblem "Jon" Warhorse

Emblem "Jon" Warhorse (He/Him) is an active professional wrestler for Washington Ultimate Wrestling. The Emblem Warhorse sometimes hosts Washington Ultimate Wrestling events, at which time they become Emblem Warhorse Wrestling.

While at the Emblem Warhorse, before and after the show, Jon would hang out with the other patrons of the Emblem Warhorse and the crowd. One night before Emblem Warhorse Wrestling’s Warhorsemania, Jon found himself simultaneously arm wrestling Emerald and playing a game of chess with John. That night, Jon was surprised to find that, unlike every other event, the Emblem Warhorse had not kicked him out.

As an Emblem Warhorse, Jon trains the other Emblem Warhorses in the ring, improving their physical conditioning and balance so that they can play baseball and do sick tricks on the Grind Rails. In addition, Jon spends a considerable amount of time with the Lil' Roadies, teaching them wrestling moves with a large blåhaj. Jon had to switch to using a standard training dummy after one of the Lil Roadies confused Brisket Friendo with the blåhaj.

On the field, and when in the ring, Jon sports the Emblem Warhorse on his scarlet and gold wrestling boots and trunks. During games and inside the Emblem Warhorse, Jon wears the Kandi bracelet made by Lemon Lime.

Trivia:

  • Jon plays Drums for Emblem Warhorse
  • Jon's finishing moves are the "Fourth Strike" (Short-Arm Lariat) and the "Rogue Ump" (Pop-Up Powerbomb)
  • Jon is currently a heel in Washington Ultimate Wrestling.
  • Jon's drink of choice is a Piledriver.
  • Jon will attempt to Rogue Ump Zephyr McCloud on site. As such, Jon is not allowed to play when the Garages face Zephyr.
