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.

Sharks Beans

Sharks Beans is a Patron of the Emblem Warhorse, hailing from the underwater city of Shark Seattle, where everyone is a shark. They crossed over to our dimension after becoming extremely lost trying to take a shortcut to the Jaylen Hotdogfishfins Memorial Climate Pledge Stadium And Parking Facility. That shortcut led to the bathroom of the Emblem Warhorse, their sudden appearance surprising and alarming Passion Popsica. Lemon Lime, (who was, at the time, in the bathroom fixing her makeup) responded quickly to the situation, reentering the bar to impart an important piece of wisdom on the rest of the patrons:

"There's a SHARK. In the BATHROOM!"

After that wisdom was shared, Sharks Beans came out of the bathroom and made a simple request:

“Can I have a glass of water pretty please?”

Emmie and Madame W, as professional bartenders, couldn’t turn down a request for a drink from a non quadrupedal animal. Since then, Sharks Beans has hung out in the Emblem Warhorse, saying they “Like the good service.”

Beans adapted quickly to a mostly-sharkless Seattle, their resemblance to the former Garages player Sparks Beans endearing them to the team despite the initial wariness about having a shark around. They have replaced their previous diet with one of salmon, which seem to be in abundance, and have found contentment in going for regular swims in the Puget Sound, coming back to the Warhorse Bar under cover of darkness so as not to alarm other players who might expect a shark attack. This has led to rumors of a cryptid living in the Sound, which has confounded Lenjamin Zhuge, typically adept at finding such creatures. They get along very well with Fammy, with whom they often have eating contests. (To this day Fammy has won all of them.)

Beans' emblem is engraved on the outside of a small heart-shaped locket that they wear around their neck. The inside contains a small picture of Chorby Soul. They reportedly do not get along with any Chorby Soul replicas, considering them to be an affront to everything that makes Soul themself. Patrons speculate that this locket has to do with the fact that Chorby Soul is revered in Shark Seattle as a savior, reclaiming the good name of sharks everywhere by punching consumers, but Beans’ wouldn’t comment when asked.

Due to the lack of ubiquitous water in the Seattle we know, Beans' signature home run style tends to backfire and they are mostly known for hitting unruns when batting as a Patron. Due to that same lack of water, their preferred drink is water, and as much as possible.
