Jschlatt/SMP


 * ''This page is about the character from the Dream SMP. For the YouTuber who plays this character, see Jschlatt.

"You know what I said the day I got unbanned from the Dream SMP? I said things are going to change... I looked every citizen of L'Manberg in the eyes and I said 'You listen to me, this place will be a lot different tomorrow.' Let's start making it happen."

Jschlatt, also known as Schlatt (or post-mortem; Glatt), is the fifteenth member of the Dream SMP, and was banned from his join date on July 16, 2020, to the POG2020 VS SWAG2020 elections. He was the president and self-proclaimed emperor of the then-renamed nation of Manberg. He served as the antagonist of The Manberg Rebellion.

During the Manberg vs Pogtopia War, he was cornered by all the SMP members after Manberg's surrender and died due to a heart attack as everyone watched with confusion.

He was later given a funeral where the attendees disrespected the former emperor.

Physiology
Schlatt was a human with tan skin, black eyes, brown hair, and a beard. He wore a black suit with a red tie and black shoes.

Schlatt was most likely born a biological human. However, in A spy's diary, Fundy explicity states that Schlatt had an 'aching body', which helped motivate his alcohol and smoking addiction due to wanting to suppress this feeling. In addition, Schlatt was incapable of swimming - and Fundy believes that this was due to some form of muscle atrophy. Fundy adds that Schlatt used protein supplements to regain his strength, however it is implied that these slowly lost their effect over time. As a ghost, Schlatt temporarily sported translucent red ram horns, supporting the popular theory that his character was a ram hybrid.

As a ghost, Schlatt has explicity made it clear that he is incapable of going outside. However, this might either be a placebo effect or a simple lie, as Schlatt did go outside during The Haunted Mansion, and he was able to go to Las Nevadas in order to gamble with Quackity.

Normal personality
Schlatt was a charming, self-centered, tyrannical leader with a knack for manipulation. He was a calm and calculated individual who is rarely brought to anger, making the majority of his movements from behind a podium. As a leader, he preferred having absolute control, only pretending to take on the suggestions that his cabinet offer. He was very confident to the point where he would confront his enemies without a single piece of armor or a single weapon on his person.

He did not have much patience, becoming tired of activities that took too long. Schlatt also lacked professionalism at times, even going so far as to drinking whilst performing a presidential speech and allowing an underage child to drink alcohol at an event.

It is hard to gauge when Schlatt trusted or distrusted someone, as he guards his perception of his people very closely. Even when it appears he fully trusts someone, he keeps a close eye on their actions just in case. It is not clear where Schlatt's trust lies, if he trusts anyone at all.

Wilbur had said that Schlatt's D&D alignment is lawful evil. "Schlatt is VERY lawful evil. Schlatt follows one creed; "I was elected fairly. I will rule until I lose the next election". He uses this power malevolently to assert dominance and punish rebellious factions."

Glatt
As a ghost, he has taken a liking to his 'ghost' name, Glatt, and likes to repeat it at random moments. His personality is similar to the regular, out-of-character streamer Jschlatt, but he retains his interest in protein powder, alcohol, working out, and cigarettes. Wilbur's first attempted revival allowed Schlatt to appear in the living world as Glatt, later being found working out in a cave filled with workout equipment by Quackity. Glatt explains that he had spent nearly all of his time working out (and learning Spanish on the side), due to claiming that he was incapable of leaving the cave. Occasionally, he is joined by Tommy and Wilbur (Before their revivals), and Mexican Dream at his gym. Glatt also mentions that Dream visits him on occasion, although this may have been a misspeak/misunderstanding, as he could have actually been referring to Mexican Dream.

Flaws
Schlatt's ultimate flaw is his independent attitude. He centralizes power into a single position so he could "rule better than the two tyrants," even though he himself is becoming a dictator, with no power to alternate positions of "vice president," "secretary of state," or "archbishop." He doesn't ask for help due to him believing that he could take on the world, though this oversight would eventually lead to his demise.

SMPLive
Before joining the Dream SMP, Schlatt and Connor were business partners on SMPLive, co-owning a company known as Schlatt & Co, which sells a cryptocurrency known as SchlattCoin.

Early Dream SMP Arc
On his first day in the SMP, he joined and was toured by a few others including TommyInnit, Tubbo, Fundy, Sapnap, Wilbur Soot, and GeorgeNotFound. During this visit, he built The Cuck Shed. Later, almost after the visit, he was banned by Dream since he didn't know Schlatt at the time.

Election in L'Manberg
Jschlatt was unbanned on September 20, 2020 to "endorse" POG2020 as their second endorsement after Vikkstar.

A very intoxicated Schlatt then began endorsing Coconut2020 before deciding to run his own campaign, Schlatt2020. Dream immediately endorsed him, giving him weapons and helping hunt Wilbur, Tommy, and Quackity. While running away through Tommy's tunnels, Wilbur proposed a compromise with Quackity and asked if they wanted to combine their parties into SWOG2020. Quackity considered it, but decided that POG2020 was just using him due to the conditional nature of the proposed coalition, instead deciding to combine his campaign with Schlatt's to create SchWAG2020.

Jschlatt won the election with 46% of the vote after pooling with SWAG2020, to form a coalition called SchWAG2020. He first pronounced himself to be L'Manberg's emperor and revoked Wilbur and Tommy's citizenship. Later he renamed L'Manberg into Manberg, stating that the nation would no longer be "taking Ls".

Presidency
Schlatt brought in many rules as the emperor of Manberg. The rules being to raise taxes on Niki, build an apartment complex on the caravan, give every citizen of Manberg a suit, and drain every lake and kill all animals. He also ordered several actions, including imprisoning Niki for standing up to him, ordering Fundy to burn down the L'Manberg Flag in order to replace it and getting everyone to try and hunt down Wilbur and Tommy.

Manberg Festival
Schlatt called for a meeting in order to announce that Manberg would be having a festival in the name of democracy. He placed Tubbo in charge of the planning, trusting him to set the whole event up and giving him the role of a key speaker. His initial intentions with the festival were unclear, since Schlatt has always been vocally against democracy.

The festival began smoothly, and Schlatt oversaw the events in a good mood. However, his true intentions became clear once Tubbo's speech drew to a close. Schlatt enclosed him in yellow concrete, revealing that he knew about Tubbo's work with Pogtopia and his conspiring against Manberg. He sentenced him to immediate execution, making it clear that the festival was never intended to be a festival at all, but a public punishment of a traitor to the state. Schlatt ordered Technoblade to do the deed, pressuring him into using his rocket launcher to kill Tubbo. The explosions ended up killing Schlatt and Quackity as well.

Schlatt and Quackity reclaimed their position on the podium with Fundy joining them in Tubbo's empty space. When Wilbur arrived for a confrontation, Schlatt did not care for his theatrics, waving him away and referring to him condescendingly as 'lover boy'. As fighting broke out among the citizens, Schlatt took a step back.

Once it was over, he ordered the citizens to come back to their seats in order for him to make another speech. Niki started to speak up against him, but he shut her down by exiling her. He then asked for arrows in order to shoot her, but forgot that Tubbo was dead and so he had nobody to give him them. He turned to Quackity to ask him, but the confusion gave Niki enough time to escape. Schlatt then insulted Niki and Tubbo saying he was glad the festival ended in death and ruins, causing some conflict between him and the others.

Internal conflict
After telling Quackity to take the White House down, Quackity refused and challenged Schlatt's power. The two got into an argument over the amount of power Schlatt had, prompting Quackity to kill Schlatt and run. Schlatt ended up taking down the building with the help of Ponk, who was at the time, his only real supporter.

Schlatt agreed to meet Quackity to discuss the building of the Manberg Hotel. In actuality, the discussion was a part of "Plan Ass", an attempt for Quackity to secretly transferring all presidential power from Schlatt to him, thus securing Pogtopian control over Manberg once again. However, Schlatt saw through this plan and changed the topic of the contract to the TNT he had found under Manberg (placed by Wilbur) and accused Quackity for the TNT, claiming that Quackity hated Manberg and wanted to take Schlatt down with Manberg. He then proceeded to wound Quackity, but Wilbur had obtained an arrow of invisibility from Ponk that would allow Quackity to escape into the forest behind Manberg undetected. Deep in the forest, Schlatt caught up with Quackity and Tommy, the latter of whom was witnessing the event from afar. Schlatt coughed and laughed as he said that the TNT was no longer under Manberg, but under Pogtopia. This was later revealed to be a lie, but the claim left the Pogtopians in a newfound state of discord and panic.

The Manberg vs Pogtopia War
Before the war, Dream betrayed Pogtopia and allied with Schlatt and Manberg, in return for a mysterious book which he claimed to hold incredible power. During the Disc Confrontation, Dream used this book to negotiate into imprisonment, revealing that this book contained the knowledge of how to revive dead members of the SMP. It is not known how Schlatt came into ownership of this book, but the only ones who knew of this knowledge are Schlatt and Dream.

During the war, Schlatt did not appear on the battlefield at all. After Dream and the rest of the Manbergian forces surrendered to Pogtopia, the members of the server involved in the conflict found Schlatt drinking heavily while lifting weights in the Camarvan. Schlatt spent the last minutes of his life arguing with Fundy and Quackity and hitting them with a broken bottle, dismayed by their betrayal - shocked at Fundy revealing his true allegiance, and then continuing to insult Quackity. He then mentioned smelling toast and his arm not being able to function properly; it was there that he finally passed away from a heart attack or a stroke, depending on who you ask. Briefly after his death, his ghost seemingly returns to insult Quackity one last time, i.e. calling him a "flatty patty", to Quackity's dismay and everyone else's amusement.

Though there have been some rumors that he died of a drug overdose because he was in the Camarvan, also known as the "drug van" when he passed away, they lack any other substantial evidence.

Jschlatt's funeral
During his funeral, Schlatt's death was celebrated. Members that attended the event defaced his grave and played with his remains. After the funeral, Quackity took the remaining bones, apparently plotting to revive Schlatt to use as a political puppet. The other remains were secretly kept by Puffy.

Wilbur's resurrection appearance
When Ghostbur had been killed in the shrine as an attempt to bring him back as Wilbur, Glatt (the ghost version of Schlatt) appeared speaking as if he had possibly interfered as a side effect in Wilbur's failed resurrection. Ghostbur then took interest in things associated with Jschlatt, such as protein powder and cigarettes. More importantly, Glatt's voice was heard from Ghostbur's body saying "big booty goddess."

Reunion with Quackity
At some point after Wilbur's first attempted revival, he became an actual fully-functional Glatt. He appeared in the Overworld and sent an unsigned book to Quackity, requesting that he travel to a set of coordinates. When Quackity got there, he saw a dead Schlatt, working out in a cave fully furnished with workout equipment. Schlatt explained that he was unable to leave, and had spent nearly all his time doing bench presses, and was also learning Spanish on the side. Occasionally, he was joined by Tommy (during his temporary death), Wilbur, and Mexican Dream. Schlatt explained that Dream also visited occasionally, and carried a book that was used to resurrect Tommy. Schlatt wanted Quackity to use that book on him. Quackity was reluctant, saying that Schlatt had treated him awfully, but proposed a bet: they would travel to Quackity's business of Las Nevadas and would gamble. If Schlatt won, he would be revived, but if Quackity won, Schlatt would remain dead and would serve Quackity's business forever. It is implied that Schlatt won, as Quackity later traveled to Pandora's Vault and demanded that Dream give him the book.

The Haunted Mansion
Connor rented a house for a party owned by Glatt. After coming to the house he led Connor, Karl, and the rest of the party to his mansion. He took Connor hostage and told the party in order to get him back they'll have to find all three nether stars at the end of each hallway. The halls all had a series of parkour challenges, mazes, and/or other puzzles they'd have to complete. Glatt picked off one to three attendees after every hall. When they completed all the puzzles, it was revealed that Glatt was just an old, lonely ghost that just wanted friends.
