Zi is mentioned on Alston England's page in the following paragraph: "England has most often been spotted with fellow former Firefighters’ shadow, Zi Sliders, with whom England was faxed for. According to England, they were college roommates, and have remained close friends ever since. England and Sliders have switched out for each other so often that they’ve fondly become known by Firefighters’ fans as “the tag-team”."

Lore for Zi. Please direct comments to discord user wtc#7453

"History Zi Sliders, while currently from Chicago, grew up in the rural upper Midwest. Reports vary on whether she is specifically from Minnesota, Wisconsin, or the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, namely because Sliders has given a number of conflicting answers when asked. Sliders originally moved to Chicago to attend DePaul University, eventually joining the Chicago Fire Department after dropping out late into zir undergraduate degree.

Sliders is Chinese-American and a transfeminine butch. She is known among fans of the Firefighters for zir personal style, especially her trademark leather jacket and large colorful earrings. Sliders is also a self-professed movie buff and, “dad rock aficionado”.

Pilotry Sliders reportedly learned to fly planes at a young age, having been taught by zir aunt, aerospace engineer and hobbyist pilot Hualin Gao. When asked exactly how old she was when zi learned to fly, Sliders told reporters, “what are you, a cop?” Following her aunt’s passing, Sliders inherited her personal aircraft, a two-seater plane named the Hou Yi.

After hearing the Call, Sliders brought the Hou Yi to Chicago and retrofitted it for use in firefighting. The aircraft is mainly used for fighting forest fires, as well as in any urban fires that are of large enough scale to warrant its use. Sliders has also been known to use the Hou-Yi to visit family, saying, “sometimes you just need to get away for the weekend, dude.”

Team Relationships Sliders is close friends with teammate Alston England. The two reportedly met in college, having been randomly-assigned roommates their freshman year. Sliders makes few public appearances, but is often accompanied by England when she does.

Sliders is also close with fellow former Shadows members Conrad Twelve, Clare Mccall, and Rush Valenzuela. Valenzuela spoke about Sliders on a TlikTok, saying, “you can only spend so long around a person before either loving them or hating them. Zi’s cool, though, we have a group chat.”

Following zir exit from the Shadows, Sliders has also reportedly developed a friendship with Baby “Ruthless” Triumphant. This relationship is unconfirmed as Triumphant threatens any members of the media who get too close and Sliders is committed to respecting xir wishes by not speaking of xem.

Trivia

Zi Sliders (Pronouns Ze/Hir or They/Them) is a forest firefighter, extreme sports fan, and pitcher for the Chicago Firefighters. Sliders's full name is 紫羅蘭, and hir family tends to call them 紫.

      • Before Blaseball***

Sliders grew up waiting for The Call, the siren song that comes to all Firefighters. Growing up, ze'd sit at hir desk and daydream about being able to fight fires with the best of them. After ze hit adulthood, ze decided that waiting wasn't enough. If The Call wasn't gonna come to hir, ze was gonna go to it.

Ze picked up hir grandma's jacket and smoking habit, along with his water scooper plane the Hou Yi and set to the skies. Ze's fought fires across the mountainous regions of western Chicago and pacific coastal Chicago.

Ze made it onto the Firefighters shadow bench early on in our understanding of Blaseball, but didn't hear The Call until Season 21, when ze was faxed in for Kennedy Rodgers.

      • Blaseball Career***

Slider’s was faxed in for fan favorite Kennedy Rodgers and played 5 riveting games with the team before being replaced for Alston England. Sliders reportedly exclaimed “are you kidding me” as ze was faxed out.

On Day 2 of Season 22, they faxed back in after Alston gave up a 4 point homer to the Sunbeams. Sliders reportedly parachuted into the field from their plane, leaving it flying in a holding pattern above the Firehouse.

      • Team Relations***

Sliders Sliders is a bit of a slob- ze enjoys to sit around and watch garbage sci-fi movies and will tell you about ALL the trivia that comes with them. Hir family will tell hir "ze eats like hir grandma". ze will snack at all times and will make huge meals for whoever will eat, which has caused hir to take up the title of "grill master" at the Firehouse Cook Outs, where ze is a huge hit.

Sliders enjoys hanging out with the "olds" more so then the people hir age. Ze tends to have a bit more of a world weary energy and likes to just relax with Douglas and Geepa.

Sliders smokes after games and rolls hir own cigarettes.
