Breadboie/SMP

''This page refers to the character from the Pizza Baby SMP. For the player who potrays this character, see breadboie.''"I'm glad [Astro] is alive. I don't exactly have to deal with everyone saying 'oh, Astro's dead and you killed her,'-- now she's alive, but I still killed her. It's a bit much. Also I have Silk Touch now."

Breadboie, also known as Bread, is one of the main characters in the Pizza Baby SMP storyline. He is the self-proclaimed president of No Astro City (now a spawn area) and is currently in hiding in a secret base which he claims to be "thousands and thousands of blocks away" from all other players. He has been in hiding since the coup staged by FallenClown (also known as Dan), but has since temporarily created an alliance with him to find a trident. Dan has also promised Bread safety, as well as returning his stolen horse, Honse.

He was one of the first members on the SMP, along with astrostrudels and itsconkcrete (Conk). As time went on and new alliances were formed, Astro and Bread's friendship became gradually more rocky, eventually leading to her exile. Currently, Astro attempts to create an alliance with Bread to get Honse back from Dan.

Appearance
Breadboie has light brown hair, white cat ears, and a white cat tail. For his casual outfit, he wears a yellow sweater with a bee on it, black sneakers, and brown pants. For his presidential suit, he wears a navy blue suit with a pink tie. During Honse's funeral, he wore an all black suit and black tie.

Main Personality
Breadboie is gay, ambitious, selfish, arrogant, and a megalomaniac. He is also shown to be two-faced, putting on a kind and polite persona with some but expressing hatred towards others. Bread is obsessed with having power, and has gone as far as abandoning No Astro City without remorse due to the fact he was technically able to keep his title of president. He is continuously frustrated about the lack of respect he receives, even whilst in power. Bread has a very strong grudge against Astro, and has held a deep hatred for her and the business PissBaby Inc. since he was elected as president.

Bread also tends to be overly paranoid about everything, including people plotting against him to take away his power, this being exhibited increasingly during his presidency. Bread cares a lot about approval from others, and when he doesn't get it he deludes himself into believing they like him anyway. He does this often, and was even able to convince himself that his citizens loved him and that he was a great president, despite making little to no progress on the town during his presidency. Currently, despite being driven out of town, Bread claims to still be president. His reasoning is that even though the town has no inhabitants, that means that there won't be another election and therefore Bread can rule as president until he dies. This being so, he is in hiding so no one can kill him.

Post Bread's Coup
Following his coup, Bread has been shown to be more easygoing. He has settled down in a base far away from all other players, visiting the town only when he's needed or when he wants to see everyone else. Because he claims to have "secured power" by staying alive, he has been shown to exhibit less paranoia. However, there are moments when these tendencies return. Bread's goal of staying alive and in power mean very much to him, and has gone as far as to team with Dan to ensure his own safety. Furthermore, Bread seems to have no other goals besides staying alive and getting back his horse, Honse. He had previously had no plans on revealing his location, however after creating an alliance with Nath and Astro he led them to his base, dubbed "Bread Cottage".

Gamers Don't Die and Pizza Baby v.1
Before it was hosted on an Apex Server, Astrostrudels hosted an SMP on a realm, calling it Gamers Don't Die They Respawn. The realm had a few members, including Chunky_Tree, FallenClown, Breadboie, and Astrostrudels. The realm eventually went inactive, so Astro started fresh with a new world-- this time on a server-- allowing more members to join.

The first Pizza Baby SMP was opened in mid 2020, now open to the public. It was named after a drawing Bread had made when he was nine years old. It was a presumably unfinished drawing, consisting of a circle with the words "Pizza Baby" written under it in pencil. All members of the original realm, excluding Bread, had joined the SMP along with new people such as gamerloaf, tccasanova, and TheFlyingPig101 (Jack). The first incarnation of the server was very easygoing, though it slowly died out as the school year began. Eventually the discord server was nuked and the server was shut down for good.

On November 7, 2020 the current iteration of the Pizza Baby SMP was opened and is still ongoing.

Early Development
Upon the new server's creation, the players consisted only of Astrostrudels, Breadboie, and Itsconkcrete. They built houses for themselves, only one of which still stands today; it has since been turned into the Pissbaby Records. About a week into playing, Bread suggested an election for the town as to assure growth and development. Astro initially objected, arguing that the server would contain too many similarities to the Dream SMP, but eventually ran in the race so she could secure power. More members were added, and FallenClown, also known as Dan, entered the presidential race as well. Conk became somewhat inactive on the server after this point.

Brewing Stand Debacle/Initial Corruption Arc
Early in the server, Bread had traveled very far to find spruce wood for his house. He was unable to find any, however he was able to return home with many great items such as emeralds, lots of iron, and a brewing stand. Bread became very protective of his brewing stand, not allowing anyone to touch it until he was finished his house. He would get angry if anyone opened the chest where it was stored, and became livid when Conk had placed it in his house without permission. When Bread finally finished his house, he placed the brewing stand inside. Unsatisfied with how it was placed, Bread mined it with an axe in hopes to place it differently. However, because he used the wrong tool to mine the brewing stand, it broke and Bread's over-protection had all been for nothing.

This can be noted as Bread's first signs of corruption, as it was a lesson to him that attachment to tangible things would only hold him back. This being so, he instead became motivated to gain power; something intangible that he wouldn't let anyone take away from him. Despite being distant from every other material belonging, Bread became very attached to his horse, which he named Honse.

Presidential Race/Campaign Period
At the first debate, Bread promised equality and opportunity for all citizens of the town. He was against "catperson-phobia", something he accused political rival Astro of. Dan also ran in the presidential race, but Astro and Bread didn't see Dan as a threat due to his constant tomfoolery during the debate. This being said, neither of them took him seriously.

Throughout the campaign period, Astro and Bread's friendship began to become increasingly more tense, seeing each other as opposing threats rather than friendly rivals-- something they had previously been. When 69nath, Astro's personal friend from their school's marching band joined the server, the two created a strong friendship and regularly confided in each other. Nath regularly stole from and engaged in PvP with other players, presumably taking advantage of the rule that presidential candidates were not permitted to kill anyone whilst campaigning. Astro consistently stuck up for them, however she did not publicly condone their actions as it would harm her standing as a candidate.

Tensions arose when Nath broke Dan's Ender Chest and did not initially take responsibility. After it was revealed to have been Nath who destroyed it, Astro and Nath then had a private discussion about the future of the town, Nath expressing that they wanted to turn their life around and start a business. Astro came to the conclusion that she did not want to run as President any longer and dropped out of the race, much to Bread's dismay. Bread strongly protested Astro's withdrawal from the race, as he didn't want to go against a seemingly harmless Dan as a final opponent. Reluctantly, Bread suggested she run as his VP, expressing that she needed to be in some sort of power to ensure the server wouldn't fall apart. Astro said she'd think about it, and left Bread to continue his campaign against Dan.

Bread built a campaign HQ to carry out his election plans and further his campaign. Under the HQ, he built a secret obsidian bunker where he stored a book titled "My Plans :)" describing what he would do as president. His overall plan for the town was to turn it into a "surveillance state", drive Astro out, and seize power for himself. He spoke of implementing a sewer system that lead to people's houses so he could regularly spy on them. (Despite this being Bread's initial plan for his presidency, he never actually executed any of it.) Tccasanova stumbled upon this bunker, and in an attempt to keep him quiet about what he saw, Bread tried (and failed) to kill him. He escaped, desperately asking the others for help and retelling what had happened. Forced to come clean about his bunker, Bread showed it to everyone, however denied that he tried to kill Tccasanova. Others assumed that this was the end of Bread's campaign and would seriously tarnish his reputation, however Bread continued to run in the race regardless.

During the primary voting, Dan was shown to have more power than everyone initially thought. He received an overwhelming amount of votes, beating out Astro (who had at this point already dropped out). Dan revealed that his horseplay during the first debate was intentional, and that he had succeeded in convincing his fellow candidates that he wasn't a threat. Intimidated, Bread turned to Astro as a last resort, once again pleading for her to re-enter the race. He begged her to run as his vice president, telling her that he needed her in power. Humored by his pitiful plea, she agreed, but kept her main priority as the business.

Pissbaby Kingdom Inc.
Nath went on to become the founder of Pissbaby Kingdom Inc. (Pissbaby Inc. for short), a business that specialized in "life insurance", but was actually a cover for them to thieve and kill. Despite its shady start, Pissbaby Kingdom Inc. became a fairly legitimate business. They set up a vacation home in the town, which caught Astro's attention. Now able to pursue business without worrying about campaigning, Astro joined Piss Baby Inc. in hopes to become a successful businessperson like Nath. Initially, Bread was intrigued by PissBaby Inc. and even wanted to join at some point. However, Nath refused this, due to the business's unwillingness to be involved with local politics.

Astro and Nath grew closer, achieving many great things as business partners and "best friends". Together, they singlehandedly beat the Ender Dragon without telling anyone. Bread became jealous of their business and friendship, accusing Astro of spending more time with business than politics. It was soon revealed that Nath and Astro even had their own base away from the town, much to Bread's disapproval. Tensions continued to grow between Astro and Bread, despite their partnered running in the presidential race. Astro then made it clear that the only reason she partnered with Bread was because she pitied him, and was indeed prioritizing business over the campaign.

Bread grew to resent PissBaby Inc., envying how it was able to bring Astro close to Nath and away from himself. He began to dislike Astro, regretting his decision to choose her as his running mate. However, he knew that by tying Astro to his campaign he would get more votes. Bread decided to grin and bear Astro's constant criticism of himself, all whilst implementing a plan to strip her of her title of vice president as soon as he was elected.

Bread's Election/Pissbaby Inc. Ban
On November 27th 2020, Bread was elected as President, receiving 80% of the popular vote. Despite having previously stated that he needed Astro in power, Bread's grudge towards Pissbaby Inc. lead him to ban all practice of Pissbaby Inc.-related business in town, as well as banning Astro from entering the town and removing her title of Vice President. The town was then named No Astro City after said ban. Nath and Astro retreated back to their HQ, and continued to bigger their business together.

Bread, angry that Astro and Nath were able to so easily adapt to life outside of the town, hired Dan as a double agent to gather intel on anything the two were planning. Dan revealed to Bread that they had plans to blow up No Astro City, causing Bread to spiral into paranoia. After working together for some time, Bread and Dan stormed Piss Baby Inc's new base and burned down the HQ. After this, Astro took it upon herself to move into a new base away from everyone else. On her own, Astro had settled down quite nicely into her private base. She frequently visited No Astro City, despite being banned. During this time, she secretly planted some TNT under the town, waiting for the right moment to use it to threaten Bread with.

The Honse Conflict
One day, when travelling to her base from No Astro City, Astro took Bread's horse, Honse without permission. She used him to quickly travel between the town and her base, and replaced him with another horse with significantly lower speed and health. Bread was unaware Astro took Honse, and demanded that whoever stole him return him back immediately for a reward. Finding it humorous, Astro didn't tell Bread she stole Honse, leading him to find out only by watching her stream at the time. Astro bargained that she'd return Honse for the reward Bread had previously mentioned, but Bread claimed the offer to have "expired". Taunting him, Astro rode Honse in circles around town as Bread tried to catch her. After a frustrated Bread left the game for the night, Astro returned Honse as she claimed "the bit" to be dead.

Soon after, Honse disappeared once again. This time, Dan had stolen him and convinced Bread that he had died. Heartbroken, Bread held a funeral for Honse, unknowing that he was actually still alive. Astro attempted to let Bread know that Dan was tricking him, Bread angry that she would say that while he was mourning. Eventually, she found out that Dan had plans to coup Bread from presidency. She continuously tried and failed to tell Bread that Dan was going to betray him, but Bread wouldn't listen. As he descended further down into madness, Bread was only able to confide in Dan. Despite Astro having clear judgement, Bread's grudge towards her was stronger than any red flag from Dan.

Since being stolen by Dan, Honse had been dubbed "Tax Evasion the War Horse", allegedly being tortured by Dan daily whilst in Bruh County.

Bread's Coup
Having spiraled into extreme paranoia, Bread had become unable to perform any presidential duties towards the better of the town and spent most of his time on the server working on the sewer systems, claiming that despite his lack of improvement in the town he was a great president. No longer attempting to warn Bread about the coup, Astro stood by and watched as Dan readied his allies to double-cross the president.

Bread fled from the town, taking refuge in a base "thousands and thousands of blocks away" from everyone. As Bread left, Dan detonated the TNT he had placed unbeknownst to even Astro, destroying No Astro City.

Post Bread's Coup
Now settled down in his new base far away, Bread was able to focus more on himself without having to worry about responsibility to anyone else. Despite loving his title of president, he revealed that he actually hated the town and its citizens, only liking the title that it gave him. He went on to explain that even though the town was virtually empty and had no inhabitants, this meant that there would be no more elections and therefore he would keep his presidential title (and power) until he were to die. Anxious that there are people out to kill him because of this, Bread has since been keeping the location of his house a secret from everyone in the server, even those he has no conflict with.

Bread has since been a little more lenient with being around others, as he has visited No Astro City (now a spawn area) many times and has even made himself a vacation home there. Currently, he has no goals other than to stay alive and get Honse back from Dan.

Recently, Bread had teamed with Dan to both ensure his safety and get Honse back, in exchange for finding Dan a trident. Astro quickly protested and attempted to get Bread to team with her instead to take back Honse. However, Dan had found his own trident off-stream and forcefully took back the netherite armor from Bread, and Honse remained in Dan's grasp.

Settling Down Era
Bread created a new life for himself where he could relax and not have to worry about being killed whilst in retreat at his cottage. Despite this being his plan, he quickly grew lonely and began to feel guilty for the things he had done in his past. After inviting Nath and Astro to his cottage, he became conflicted; he had previously thought that all of his actions would be led by his hatred for Astro, however it had become apparent that it would be objectively better for him to team with Astro instead of Dan. This created confusion and internal conflict as he didn't want to pick a side, all he wanted was to continue having a reason to hate Astro.

As time went on, Bread spent more and more time alone at his cottage and became very lonely. One day, an ominous entity showed up at his cottage. They closely resembled Astro's skin, except it was in grayscale. Bread assumed it was the ghost of Astro, as Dan had told him that he had killed Astro in a war. This ended up being incorrect, as the entity revealed themselves to be a manifestation of Bread's own subconscious. They explained that they had manifested because Bread had serious issues he had to deal with, namely his guilt and loneliness. No one else could see or hear this entity, and both Gee and Dan had assumed Bread was going crazy. Bread denied that he had any issue, calling the entity a bitch and mocking it. At some point, the entity appeared to be summoning the Wither, scaring Bread, however it was revealed that the entity was unable to summon it in any capacity due to their lack of existence in the real world. They continuously criticized Bread for his tendency to push others away, hypocrisy, and paranoia (something he had previously thought he was free of). Bread ended up being unable to confront any of his problems with the entity. It ended up going away, presumably for reasons other than healthy coping mechanisms from Bread.

Buddy Arc
During one of Gee's streams, yet another mysterious entity had shown up around Bread's house. This entity was completely black, apart from having two sets of eyes with yellow pupils. Bread was very suspicious, but Gee quickly made friends with the entity and nicknamed them "Buddy". Buddy seemed non-threatening, wanting only offerings of crops, plants, and flowers, moaning in delight upon receiving some. Bread apologized for being quick to assume Buddy was bad, and dropped the suspicions he had previously held.

A few days later, a strange looking tower had shown up near Bread's cottage. Upon investigating, Bread found the tower belonged to Buddy, and served as a vacation home. Bread asked Buddy some questions about the matter, such as where they had come from and why they were visiting. Buddy began to give some strangely vague answers, and seemed to take an interest on Astro's location. Bread quickly became worried for Astro's safety and began distrusting Buddy once again.

One day when Bread logged in, a shulker box full of valuables and a book asking for help was in his cottage. It had been addressed to him from Astro, who was undergoing a strange transformation and came to Bread as a last resort. She explained that she had attempted to summon a powerful being some time ago, but the summoning had gone wrong and she had lost a good chunk of her memory pertaining to the situation. Astro had apparently gone through months of transformation, documenting in a series of diaries that she had no recollection writing.

Bread gathered Conk and Gee to meet in Spawn to speak to Buddy about their intentions. Gee had still believed Buddy to be good, so hearing there was a possibility they wanted to hurt Astro was surprising. Buddy began to drop their friendly demeanor when Bread refused to give information about Astro, revealing their intentions to be malicious. They disappeared after stating that they'd find Astro themselves. Bread informed Astro that Buddy was dangerous, which began to cause inner turmoil as he had believed he didn't care about Astro.

Astro met up at the Gee Spot with Bread, Conk, and Gee to get a drink and speak to Bread. She revealed that she was moving away to avoid getting hurt by Buddy. They had no idea what Buddy was capable of and therefore saw them as a very large threat. They announced that their appearance at the upcoming planned PvP tournament would be the last anyone would see of them. This made Bread very upset. Astro was confused, as they were mostly familiar with Bread feeling negatively about them. Bread explained that he felt guilty for everything he had done to her as President, and apologized, stating he didn't want to lose her again; not when he could do something about it. Astro protested, saying it was too late and to just let it happen. They proceeded to get drunk at the Gee Spot and return to their home.
