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.

Adrian "Addy Warhorse" Ventrer

Adrian “Addy Warhorse” Ventrer is a semi-frequent patron of the Emblem Warhorse who enters the bar through a trapdoor in the back storage closet. Primarily seen sporting carefully-made and well-used metal armor and a longsword at their side, the shield on their back sports the usual emblem of the Emblem Warhorse.

While they don’t have a name for their home other than “home,” they frequently enjoy telling stories of their adventures back home to anyone willing to listen to them. Ventrer has yet to run out of any stories or repeat any of them to the same person, though occasionally they will be heard regaling the same story to different people.

Ventrer and Malik Destiny became fast friends, bonding over their history as adventurers. While Destiny is close to being banned from the premises, Ventrer is one of Destiny’s biggest advocates for letting Destiny continue to visit. However, their friendship is perhaps more infamous, rather than famous, leading to the chances of Destiny being banned growing more likely, rather than less likely. Still, the two are close friends, and occasionally Ventrer will ask Malik if he wishes to join them back home, though neither of them expect Malik to ever take Ventrer up on the offer.

While some may expect this rough-and-tumble adventurer to enjoy primarily beer or ale, Ventrer instead prefers sweet and fruity cocktails, and allows Emmie or Madame W to create some new cocktail for them instead of requesting something specific.

Ventrer described the pull towards becoming a Patron as a familiar sensation, though they regard the game as far more laid back than whatever they were doing back home. Despite this, they play blaseball with as much gravity and treat it with as much importance as any other world-saving quest they might be given. Additionally, apparently due to their past, they’re found playing in almost exclusively Blooddrain weather.
