Coffeeccubus

Coffeeccubus is a player on the official Stoneworks Server. They have founded multiple nations, such as the Ayleidic Empire, the Dominion of Ashura, and currently, the Aurlûnor Velande. They are also known as the founder of the Twin Dragon religion, although previously, they founded the "Ayleidic Pantheon", which was a failed attempt in trying to make the dimension-hopping Ayleids "different" from their original Elder Scrolls counterparts, and the Ashuran Pantheon, which was actually expanded upon during their Aurlûnor Velande days in mid July of 2021.

Known as previous alias such as Sereniama, Howiter1, and their first ever Minecraft Username, Teh_Verness (all according to NameMC and Wikia), Coffeeccubus has been playing on the server since August 19, 2020, and has been a member of the Stoneworks Discord since July 23rd.

History
Coffeeccubus seemed to have their humble beginnings on the server as a lurker prior to the Minecraft server, and was usually seen asking about their world in the Stoneworks Discord Server. Coffeeccubus left the Stoneworks Discord server for a while before returning it, stating that they were cleaning up their discord slots, which was roughly around late July. Upon the opening of the server, Coffeeccubus would be one of the later joiners on August 19, and would begin to scout around for a town. When they eventually founded White-Gold Tower, Coffeeccubus established their nation as a neutral nation with a roleplay quota, and changed their skin to reflect this, as well as declaring it a roleplay haven away from PVPers and other non-PVP users. They would leave prior to Jadgas' closure in September due to disinterest in the server, and thought to have never return.

Coffeeccubus would come back in the reboot on October 30, 2020, and has since been a far more active and important member in the community, influencing and even changing aspects of the server culture forever according to some people. Coffeeccubus would seemingly first settle in the Dominion of Ashura located in Syltör's far southeast. Coffeeccubus would go on to learn how the server works and how it is played, and would complete the Obelisk of Qamiya, which was the capital of the humble dominion, using a mixture of quartz and some diorite, as well as glass. Since they did not know how the claims system work, their claims would be rather unknown, and unmapped, only being mapped later on by independent mappers at the time as a rather small settlement, even though they had written some lore for it a while back. Up until November 14 2020, Coffeeccubus would abandon the region, due to lack of interest and lack of players, leaving blocks around as ruins, and would migrate away from Syltör.

Foundations of the Aurlûnor Velande
Following the abandonment of Qamiya, Coffeecucbus would attempt to head over to the old settlement of Turtlonia on Nieden, and settled there. There, sparked the idea, that according to Coffeeccubus, that Elves are usually portrayed as "Euro-centric" and "generic". In order to counter this idea, Coffeeccubus had decided to play Stellaris to help inspire their idea. When they stumbled across the "Elves of Stellaris" mod, they saw a nation known as the "Aurlûnor Velande", and would decide to take that nation, and try to put it into a more fantasy setting with their own spin. With permission from the Mod Author to use it, Coffeeccubus would go on to create Lhûmar in the region. This was claimed, until SikkeOst discovered the settlement almost immediately after discovering the settlement on the Dynmap, which was, at the time, constantly updating due to the lower server population. They would for them to move, and following a brief argument, was compensated $5,000, however, Coffeeccubus discovered they could move the land without having to re-found it, and decided to donate the money into the bank.

When Coffeeccubus left Nieden, they would eventually make their way back to Syltör, after discovering there was no one in a particular harbor-looking area, and decided to move toward the region. It was there, that they would go, to the then #rathnir-claims, circled the area, and would ask "is anyone claiming this general area?", to which to a surprise, Sieg responded to Coffeeccubus, stating if no one was there, they could claim it. When zoomed out and showed it was unclaimed, it was fine, as well as with many other members of the mapping guild. And thus, Coffeeccubus would found Lhûmar, establishing the Velande for sure from there.

Early Years as the Velande's Ruler
The early years of the Aurlûnor Velande was lonesome as Coffeeccubus was the only person who inhabbited the nation. Though originally was planning to be isolationist, they would join the alliance, the Syltör Confederation.

Dalatra would be titled "Imperial Concubine" on November 16, a day after establishment, and would see Coffeeccubus' character (who is also Sareariel Lelya-Earcala) becoming one of Dalatra's wives. They would also participate in the coronation of Dalatra as Empress of Yimmu-Audal, and would support her claim during the near Yimmu-Audal War of Succession, before the war was called off.

Later, multiple changes happened around the nation. Most notably, it's "roleplay restart", where it restarted all foreign treaties and alliances, including the cancellation of Dalatra's marriage to Coffeeccubus' character. For the next few months, the nation remained neutral from world affairs, until it rejoined the Syltör Confederacy in later December. Coffeeccubus continued to deny Globalism, and keeps declaring that Aurlûnor will not recognize a declaration of war against them, unless they are neighboring or nearby to wage war. This opinion is unpopular by the community, but it is apart of the nation's strict roleplay policy.

The Hands, Bardonia, Relation with Unic0rnb0i and World Conquest
This began to change, as on Janurary 17, 2021, Aurlûnor formally joined Bardonia, but made an agreement that they are only there in name and color, and agreed that they will keep their sovereignty, titles and such without having to change any aspect, but only have to follow Bardonian Law. But Aurlûnor's laws remained, which means that secularism is not allowed in the borders that Aurlûnor controls, and forced conversions may still happen should Aurlûnor conquer something. On the same day, Aurlûnor went through a small conquering spree, and colonizing the unclaimed territory that Transyakistan had as a trade outpost. These gains, saw Aurlûnor's influence in the sole sea that it bordered increase drastically. They would purchase Sokalis as well, but not formally annex it until two weeks later.

Mid Years, Velande Expansion, and Rising Fame
On Janurary 20, 2021, Aurlûnor would renounce their ties to Bardonia as a Protectorate, and would even state that none of the things that happened between Aurlûnor and Bardonia happened, citing that they "will not take it to roleplay consideration if they are voiding the global war". Following the Bardonian Conflicts, Aurlûnor would go back to normal until Janurary 25, 2021, where the Takumakken Empire collapsed due to their leader no longer having interests of ruling the nation. This lead to a crisis between Cool_Man69 and Coffeeccubus over Sokalis, as Cool_Man69 claimed that the territory never belonged to Aurlûnor. Coffeeccubus would disagree and a war would almost begin, until being resoluted on Janurary 27, 2021, where the two leaders would agree to a compromise, fully annexing Sokalis (now Helemar) into Nir Province.

In addition, the Partition of Takumakken occurred, and Aurlûnor managed to gain a large chunk of the western territories. This alone, finally end the three month long dispute with Takumakken over settlement, and greatly expanded the borders of the Empire. It would also aquire the County of Fornois on Janurary 30th, 2021. It would become the sole member of the Syltörian Confederation, which would also be dissolved on the same day.

Multiple raids would follow by a group of nomads by the name of the Boris. They would raid and sack Athrabar, and would settle there, establishing their territory. They would be eradicated during the First Barbarian Rally. Since the rally however, multiple more groups had shown up in Aurlûnoren territory, such as the Sangrians and the Anarchists of Froggi Town. These two would be dealt with in the Second Barbarian Rally and the Third Barbarian Rally, the former not being declared due to their crushing defeat at the hands of Bardonia at Andorn. Froggi Town however, would of been eradicated, with their people being mercilessly slaughtered and the forced end of Jaxism.

Months later, the Velereth would marry Mistic II, in which would have the birth of Mistic III, who would go on to rule Theios-Essukdal, creating a dynastic defense pact. The Empire would engage in two massive wars which would reach their borders. The first being the war against Jazzon, Entropy's right hand man, following Entropy's multiple visits to the Empire, which would cause destruction to the old Temple of the Divines. Many Aurlûnorens commanded by both the Velereth and Governor Aesop of Tacua, would assist Bardonia and Theois-Esskudal in this engagement.

After a small nation in North-west Syltör was found plotting against them, Bjørn´sberg, (they wanted the mountains back) they decided to launch a coup with Børn Helheim (Alohomora2006) at it´s center, then making it a vassal of The Venlande, attempting to expel the cowardly and arrogant Frognog Flasor to Eldham, but failed as he ran using some kind of magical music enhancement.

Several attempts at banditry and raids would happen following the influx of new peoples coming from the newest Stoneworks Minecraft uploads, which saw mass murderers, excessive toxicity and settling in Aurlûnoren territory, much to the dismay of Coffeeccubus.

Present Day
Presently, Coffeeccubus, alongside Beast Killertje are considered among the most roleplay-friendly people in Rathnir, with many commendations for their efforts in keeping roleplay alive in Rathnir, and appears to be well-liked and hosts a rather large community in the Velande. Despite a very long period of stress and anxiety that has hit them, and the many controversies that had came their way, Coffeeccubus, to many, seemingly left a lasting impact on the people of Rathnir, often being asked about roleplay, and was even featured in two of Stoneworks's videos, "How to Make History in Minecraft" (which later turned into a fuss by Coffeeccubus about the amount of squatters they'd received according to them), and "How to make a World Religion in Minecraft" which their religion managed to earn top place in the polls.
