Blaseball Career

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

Gloom was sweet-talked onto the Thieves by Cornelius Games, who desired his old rival's skill at footwear larceny. After a devastating bureaucracy accident, Games thrust a blaseball rod into their hands and told them to "go get 'em, champ." Sources presume that Gloom is just too polite to mention they have no idea how to use the rod. Since that incident, they have been slugging away out there for the Shoe Thieves, day in, day out.

That is until FEEDBACK.

IN THE FEEDBACK

During the FEEDBACK, Workman Gloom and Joe Voorhees shared a single moment where they were able to exchange words of forewarning and advice. Fans described the exchange as “precious”[1], “intimate”[2][3], and “so loud it’s imprinted on my brain”[4].

Workman Gloom put his hand on Voorhees’ shoulder and uttered “Take care of Beasley, he really is a good boy.” Voorheese, ever the straightforward blaseball player[2], signed the best advice he could think of to impart on someone new to the Moist Talker’s, “Remember, Be Kind, Be Gross. The Wet is always deeper.”

Career with the Moist Talkers

Saddened by getting ripped “unceremoniously”[5] away from the Shoe Thieves and their beloved[3] pet dog, Workman Gloom spontaneously formed a personal rain cloud. It hangs grey, wet, and stormy a meter above their head*. It wears the sickest kicks**.

Voorhees’ cryptic advice was surprisingly helpful to Gloom as they adjusted to the Moist Talkers. A sweaty reporter asked Gloom to explain Voorhees’ advice, “I’m only beginning to understand the depth of my own moistness.” they replied, “Accepting moistness into your heart is a journey of self discovery that I’m excited to be on. Someday I hope to be as attuned to the depths as Voorhees was, he’s a real role model, despite the murder”[6].

Workman became an invaluable guide to Voorhees during his rough adjustment to the Shoe Thieves[7]. It’s said that the pair’s respect for each-other grows stronger daily. Scientists are studying if this is an aftereffect of the FEEDBACK.

Despite the damp and gloomy weather Gloom now brings to the field, they have proven to have an unbreakable love of blaseball and their teammates. Gloom is trying their best to teach the MTs how to steal the other teams shoes, and maybe even a blase or two, but is met with incredible incompetence as every single MT gets caught stealing.

*It has been pointed out by observant fans that Gloom's rain cloud technically counts as spittle as it is (arguably) produced by their corporeal form[citation needed]. Therefore gloom is a great asset to the team's required donation of spittle to the Belligerent Phlegm Receptacle[error!! citation needed!!]. **note from the author: this is an objective fact, stop editing the page saying a citation is needed!

After a good while with the Moist Talkers Workman Gloom developed a slight purple hue on their skin and started sprouting sessile organisms from their neck. When asked, Mooney Doctor stated that Doctor-Patient confidentiality prohibited her from divulging whether these organisms are sprouting in other areas of Workman's physique or if indeed they do exist at all. Fans have theorized that their change in skin tone could be attributed to the incinerated prior-hitter of the Moist Talkers Tyler Violet is infusing their incorporeal spirit with Workman, a side effect of their personal rain cloud or that it is simply the damp playing tricks in the light.

Personal Life

Gloom specializes in stealing high-top sneakers.

Beasley Gloom, the Shoe Thieves' canine pitcher, is Workman's dog. Sources say that Beasley is very happy that they're at all of their games.

During Season 3, Gloom scored a single in a fifteen-inning game against the Tacos, giving the Shoe Thieves an edge and likely preventing a Spillover. When asked for comment, Gloom responded: "What? Hey, I gotta get home so Beasley can get his dinner." Beasley was then fed his standard evening bowl of kibble, with a treat for dessert because he had been such a good boy that day.
