Nethy Chunqiu
"Fortune and risks come together, why should I go slow and steady to build my foundation? Simply creating my own texts is not enough, there are countless historians hoarding texts beyond my grasp. Thus, I must go and work harder! Using all means to achieve my goal! Whether it be bargaining, extortion, or banditing... I'll pursue my aspirations with my own path. Even if I fail in the end and obtain nothing. That is what I want to do! This is how I want to live! Today, I tread on green hills; later I will firmly plant my feet on my own library!"

- Nethy the Book Bandit Nethy Chunqiu is a human Scribe, Book Bandit, former Grand Consul of Rhineland, and current ruler of Zhon. His passion lies in collecting books. So much that he has developed a pseudo-machiavellian attitude towards obtaining them.

His aspirations lay in establishing his own library in the North East. As such, he can be commonly seen scribing new treaties to amass the necessary funds. He owns a local tea brewery in the capitol city of Kingston and lives in a quaint study by the countryside.

Book Bandit Code
The goal of the Book Bandit is to primarily extort stolen items in exchange for written texts. As long as it is a book that the Bandit does not own, and the text being a sincere creation, a transaction is almost always guaranteed.

The Aerillion Swindle
On 8/27/21, The Book Bandit had encountered his first loss in the Simulami town of Aerillion by the innumerable arrows of the Nobleman DerpyLi123. Caught within the confines of a small pit, he was cornered and left with no options, abandoning both armor and shiv before fleeing. Ashamed, the Book Bandit returned to initiate a trade. Offering a nicked Netherite Ratism Sword and a secret brewing recipe in exchange for his lost gear. DerpyLi123 firmly rejected the trade, explaining they would be kept as trophies.

It was only until the following week that DerpyLi123 had a sudden change of thought. Requesting the Netherite Ratistm Sword, two diamond blades of excellent quality, and a stack of enchanting bottles. The Book Bandit agreed, but the location of exchange became contentious. The Book Bandit argued for the neutral territories of Mushroomica situated between Simulami and Rhineland, while DerpyLi123 demanded to do the trade in Simulami's port of Myrkira. Vigilant, the Book Bandit delayed himself for three days, of which DerpyLi123 would strangely urge for the Book Bandit to quickly conduct the deal at every hour just before midnight.

Finally, although suspicious, the Book Bandit agreed to do the deal at Myrkira. He cautiously equipped himself with fresh elixirs and a Scribal blade, while also donning the title of a Scribe and set off. It would be halfway through that the Book Bandit chose to add to a twist. Switching the location to the entrance of Myrkira's nether portal. One where the environment suited his Myconic experience. DerpyLi123 somewhat hesitant agreed in the end.

Upon arrival, DerpyLi123 cautiously travelled through the portal into a Crimson forest, wherein checking the surroundings claimed that he would now grab the Book Bandit's goods to conduct the trade. Understanding the mutual distrust between the two, the Book Bandit agreed to wait a while longer, as DerpyLi123 returned to Myrkira. It was through that timeframe that two invisible Aerillion citizens would sneak their way through the portal...

Unbeknownst to the Book Bandit, he patiently waited with the Ratism Sword and the other requested goods. As DerpyLi123 returned, the Book Bandit on good faith began the exchange by dropping an enchanted diamond blade, requesting for his chestplate in return. Upon taking the sword, DerpyLi123 drew his blade, as two geared strangers smashed through the netherrack ceiling.

DerpyLi123 ushered the two assailants, Brawler Brownbear1972, and the Merchant At4micN1K8 to murder the Book Bandit in cold blood. Enraged the Book Bandit leapt into combat. Under the threat of three tricksters, the Book Bandit made use of his terrain. Forcing the Merchant At4micN1K8 into a wall before promptly slashing his neck. DerpyLi123 lost his composure and soon was beheaded, as the Brawler Brownbear1972 received a fatal blow through his heart.

The Book Bandit had slayed all three shameless liars & returned home utterly disappointed in the townsfolk of Aerilion. Although reclaiming his shiv from DerpyLi123's corpse, his angered expression eased as he recited:

"I can kill others, others can naturally come to kill me. Whether Scribe or Book Bandit, I am someone who repays kindness and takes revenge for enmity. I only desire books, nothing more. And you my friends have paid the price for crossing me!".

Thus, the Book Bandit made his way back much to the chagrin of DerpyLi123.
