We begin our story with a handshake, a merging of two entities! Strawhats thus became incorporated into Squishy, bringing in new smiles and laughter into the halls of faction chat.

"Let us not forget who we were, to better understand who we will become."

Strawhats, a popular and widely-loved faction, led by none other than Dather, has weathered the storms of time and loss. At the peak of her influence, Strawhats inspired unity and friendship. With the tidal strength of charisma, Dather led many friends and allies towards victory against Chrysallis.


How merciless Time is, to slowly weather away the seemingly unbreakable bonds of Strawhats. Time has greedily stolen families away from the world of Granado Espada. The intial 10 Strawhats consisted of Dather and his close real-life friends, but as they left the game one by one, more recruiting was done. At one point, recruitment reached an incredible peak of 97 members! Wow!

Dather, under a lot of stress from school work, and Advanced Placements (Yikes! North Americans will know how awful those are), was unable to supply the multitude of events other faction members boast about. Slowly, the pillars of the faction crumbled, as families left to pursue their goals of fame and fortune with other armies.

Seeking familiarity, Dather turned to Silesia, who was in the midst of debating whether or not to accept offers from larger factions. Our story shifts to Squishy..

The first Squishy faction was created by Ithimus, stealing the faction name idea from Saucy, one of our first loyal members. It was disbanded as members left Granado Espada, so the remaining three pioneers, Ithimus, Ophiera and Silesia could merge with BloodMilitia. However, with the language barriers and other issues, the faction seemed a mismatch. Anticipating similar problems from mostly non-English speaking factions, the Squishy pioneers decided to remake Squishy, this time with Silesia as the leader.

With only her two cousins accompanying her in the faction, Silesia felt lonely. Invitations from friends seemed very appealing. Dather's suggestion to disband and find a larger faction together almost went through. However, at the crux of disaster, Ithimus stepped in, to remind Dather and Silesia of one very important idea they had both forgotten.

"The most important thing a faction should stress, is unity. "

Ithimus is correct. His argument brought some sense back to Silesia. It is often times hard for a large community to bring together individuals with different ideas, and have them work together efficiently, however, it is not impossible. Unity. Care for every single one of your factionmates--That is one of the better methods of keeping a faction together.

If greed or desire for power is something that is inevitably felt, make it the greed for advancement of everyone. A faction is a home--It's the soft, warm bed you seek at night.

Squishy is revived with the doctrine to climb to the top, together. So, let's go!

Now for some flukes. D:

Right when we were about to take an important shot, a very scaly Ophiera jumps in in an attempt to steal the spotlight! xD *bats tail away*

One thing ladies out there should know.. Don't be fooled by the innocent look a guy may have. They are teh conniving!! Watch out for their fingers.
