Talk:Siobhan Chark

Siobhan Chark is briefly mentioned in a proposed addition to Elijah Valenzuela's page that mentions them becoming friends over shared struggles with joining the team, which can be found here: Topic:Wr5pqsdsf4oq5tj3

https://www.blaseball.wiki/w/Talk:Steals_Chark establishes how Steals and Siobhan are siblings and also maybe evil alternate twins of one another, and also how they don't get a long. The article also references Siobhan having a partner, but does not provide any details as to who that might be

Over the second Grand Siesta, the Jazz Hands fans on the Blaseball discord, alongside fans from Siobhan's previous teams, have come up with the following summary for a lore update:

• Siobhan is a mershark and can control how shark-like she appears

• She/They

• The Mom Friend, she doesn't act like a mother but she worries about her teammates

• She can hear the collective unconscious of the Fans of her current team, as well as the dead, but hearing the dead is more of a tertiary power.

• Participates in Roller Dlerby alongside Wyatt Pothos, Lancelot Kane, Russo Slugger, as well as Chorby Short and Zippy DeShields, who compete as one player

• Can swim through non-water substances via her Hellmouth adaptation

• Picked up some bioluminescent properties while in Breckenridge

• Visits Randall Marijuana's Memorial Cat Cafe and hangs out with Nagomi Nava from time to time, visiting via a portal in The Pocket

• Keeps in contact with Hahn Fox and Priya Fox

• Decently in tune with the weirdness of The Pit

• Wields a trident/spear

• Always cold due to Breckenridge being cold.

• In a Trio with Neerie McCloud and Mint Shupe

• In active contact with Wyatt Mason IV

• Plays the Glass Harmonica

• Befriends several jazz hands players, especially Lancelot Kane, Wyatt Pothos, Mikan Hammer, and Elijah Valenzuela

Everything here is so good!! 💛🦈

Full Proposal - Currently, Siobhan has a single IRM (https://www.blaseball.wiki/w/Siobhan_Chark/IF-67.941). It contains all their lore except the “Time on the Sunbeams” and “Trivia” sections, which live on her main page. I want to close the IRM, move all content from it to their main page, and add two new sections between “Time on the Sunbeams” and “Trivia.”

Flickering

Chark, who had already shown a penchant for Feedback, gained a pair of Flickering Socks on Season 20, Day 90. This item sent Chark through a rapid series of team changes in the late Expansion Era.

At the beginning of Season 21, Chark Feedbacked from the Hellmouth Sunbeams to the Houston Spies, in exchange for Comfort Septemberish. Chark had made many friends in the Hellmouth, but was worried about the chaos and harm her series of Feedback moves had caused across the league. Upon returning to Houston, Chark began working with the Agency to undo that damage.

First, Chark used their knowledge of the Hellmouth to help plan Agent Septemberish’s extraction. Chark recruited Quack Enjoyable, with whom she had previously Feedbacked herself, for the rescue mission. In the Season 22 Election, Agent Septemberish briefly relocated to the Breckenridge Jazz Hands, before being Equivalent Exchanged for Enjoyable, in accordance with Chark’s instructions.

With Septemberish back in Houston, and Enjoyable comfortable in Breckenridge, Chark sought to reverse her very first Feedback with Sosa Hayes. On Season 23, Day 46, Chark was Voicemailed out of the Shadows, in preparation for a Feedback game versus the Atlantis Georgias the following day. On Day 47, Chark and Hayes feedbacked, returning Chark to her original team, and Hayes to his longtime home in Houston.

Chark’s homecoming proved more stressful than she’d hoped. Shortly after returning, Chark became concerned about Steals Chark’s malevolent influence on the team. To learn more, Chark arranged to be Voicemailed into the Georgia’s shadows, and used their time there to investigate Chark’s origins. After completing their investigation, Chark was Faxed into the Georgia’s pitching rotation in exchange for Chark. While Chark had always preferred hitting, she was willing to pitch to keep Chark contained. Chark felt at peace for the first time since they’d left the Georgias in [[Season 19], and thought now she’d finally have a chance to relax.

Unfortunately, Chark’s hopes went unfulfilled. On Season 23 Day 83, Chark Feedbacked to the Hades Tigers in exchange for Hiroto Wilcox, to the shock and dismay of both teams. The Tigers were too devastated by the loss of their captain to help make Chark comfortable in the unwelcoming environment of Hades. Chark understood, and did not begrudge the Tigers taking time to grieve, but felt alone and scared on her new team. After having worked so hard to undo the damage she’d done, Chark worried they were about to inflict a new wave of pain across the league.

This worry was made manifest only a few days after Chark’s arrival in Hades. On Season 23, Day 95, Chark Feedbacked to the Breckenridge Jazz Hands in exchange for Walton Sports, in her final Feedback of the Expansion Era. This took place during the same game in which Spears Rogers and Famous Owens Feedbacked with each other twice. Chark, having observed how much the loss of Wilcox devastated the Tigers, was relieved when Owens returned to the team shortly before the end of the game.

Time on the Jazz Hands

Chark joined the Breckenridge Jazz Hands in a time of turmoil, and worried they wouldn’t fit in. Sports had been the team’s designated responsible adult, and Chark naturally took over that role in his absence. She consoled the team after the loss of star Collins Melon in the Semi-Centennial Exhibition Match, and helped prepare them to face the challenges of Season 24. While the Jazz Hands were saddened by the loss of Sports, they appreciated Chark’s presence, and did their best to make her feel at home.

Chark struggled to adapt to Breckenridge’s cold weather, but got advice on layering from Elijah Valenzuela, who had also moved to Breckenridge from a warmer climate. In their free time, they joined Wyatt Pothos’s Rloller Derby team, visited friends in The Hellmouth through The Pocket’s portal to the Randall_Marijuana_Memorial_Cat_Café, and took up playing the Glass Harmonica. Chark also bonded with Mikan Hammer, a fellow ancient being who’s seen much turmoil in their long life, and their partner Lancelot Kane, who appreciated Chark’s assistance babysitting Zippy DeShields and Baby Doyle.

Chark remains in contact with Wyatt Mason IV, and follows their career in Dallas with great interest. In Breckenridge, she also reconnected with Quack Enjoyable, their former teammate from the Houston Spies. The two have occasionally been observed speaking in hushed tones, exchanging furtive glances, and requesting access to high powered radio equipment.

I was told to ping everyone in here. Could someone move the content from Siobhan Chark's one IRM (https://www.blaseball.wiki/w/Siobhan_Chark/IF-67.941) to their main page, and delete the IRM?

Thank you for your patience. The IRM entry's lore has been transferred, and the rumor registry & individual rumor will be deleted shortly.

No problem, i actually hadn't checked in on this in days. We're cleaning up the wreckage of the Expansion Era here, so this wasn't urgent.

Siobhan gets a mention in the Pond Squad section of this doc, the Pond Squad is a group of library assistants that help in the Library of Alexandria and this group contains Chorby Short, Quack Enjoyable, Siobhan Chark, and Zippy Deshields

I'm guessing this was intended to be a filebox from the beginning because of the Georgias' IRM-by-default thing anyway.

Here's a proposed section based on our Sunbeams lore jam with the Georgias and Spies. It's sort of preliminary, so may be fleshed out more over time! If you have any questions/additions/concerns reply here or message me on discord, dasyuridae#6509 :]

'Chark was feedbacked to the Sunbeams in exchange for relatively new arrival Quack Enjoyable after a stint of 39 days on the Houston Spies. After this period of rapid change, a siesta gave them the opportunity to settle into the team and their new life in Hellmouth. Over this time, Chark adapted an ability to ‘swim’ through the desert surrounding Hellmouth, with a suite of physical changes making this possible. Despite her new ability, she still enjoys swimming with Hahn Fox in local bodies of water, such as Fox’s pool and the “Colorado River” reemergence. Chark is also often found in Randall Marijuana’s Memorial Cat Cafe with Nagomi Nava, or sun basking in the desert with Zack Sanders, Hendricks Richardson, and Howell Franklin.'

Full text available on Discord in team lore channels; here's a summary:

Before this section, a small note saying roughly "IRM ends here" (exact wording pending)

• Joined via feedback with Sosa Hayes.
• Mom energy gets along well with the other Spies’ parental instincts.
• Despite her connection to the Consciousness weakening substantially upon her departure from Atlantis, the Agency and the Spies began analyzing and exploiting it.
• These plans were cut short by Siobhan being Feedbacked right out again within the same season.
• Rumors of this second feedback being the gods deciding that the Spies would be too powerful if they were allowed to continue exploiting her connection to the Consciousness are obviously false.

Hello there! Here's a preview of an IRM being cooked up for everybody's favorite shark selkie! The link to the full thing is here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bviHyA8dzsaf-2uhAX7aqzIUoyuz5bRMmQoyzqIJvKY/edit#heading=h.yczgz9c5ares

And here's an overview:

Siobhan Chark is widely considered a shark selkie at current time, although the exact nature of their existence has shifted and changed over time in unrecorded ways. Her recorded forms are that of a humanoid around six and a half feet tall, with dark skin, strange eyes, and long, tightly-braided teal hair; and a mermaid-like form with traits resembling a shark’s, measuring approximately eight to nine feet.  Chark is able to change between these forms at will, and often keeps a sharkskin close to hand.

   At first impression, Siobhan often seems to be quiet, distant, and reserved.  Almost all three parts of this are false.  Although she may tend towards shorter sentences and letting actions speak for themselves, Siobhan Chark is dedicated, devoted, and a chronic worrier with a tendency to overwork themself into an early grave.  Someone has to do things and do them right, and nobody else is going to do it right.  At any given time, she would like to find a way to help, and being useless or unable to lend aid often leads to spiraling bouts of self-doubt that may last for several days.
