“	There was a saying, Phil, by a traitor, once part of L'Manberg... It was never meant to be.	”
—Wilbur Soot to Philza, before detonating L'Manberg

This page is about the character on the Dream Team SMP. For the streamer who plays this character, see Wilbur Soot. For his ghost counterpart, see Ghostbur.

Wilbur Soot, also commonly known as Will, or Alivebur, was the unofficial leader of Pogtopia and the key founder and First President of L'Manberg. He was the son of Philza, the biological father of Fundy, and the half-brother of TommyInnit.

After his declaration of intent to destroy Manberg, as well as his act of keeping one of TommyInnit's discs hostage, he served as one of the key antagonists during the Manberg Rebellion era. During the final battle, Wilbur worked and planned with Dream as the traitor to the rebellion, aiming to detonate L'Manberg after realising that its core ideas had failed. He was ultimately killed by his father, Philza, upon his own request, shortly after completing his mission. His last death is considered to be a suicide.

After his final death, he reappeared as a ghost, having lost many of his memories. This ghost version of Wilbur calls himself Ghostbur, and seems to consider himself as an entirely separate entity. It is not known what happened to Alivebur's physical body after his re-manifestation - it is rumoured that he was left unburied in the button room.

Appearance

Wilbur was a human with light skin, black eyes, and brown hair. His default pre-L'Manberg outfit was a white shirt, black jacket, black pants, and black shoes. He also had a skin with a red beanie and yellow sweater. He also briefly wore a skin with an orange and black varsity jacket.

As the General of L'Manberg, he wore the standard revolutionary uniform, which was composed of a blue blazer, red sash around the waist, white dress shirt, cream breeches, and tall black boots. This uniform was accompanied by a white and black tricorn hat.

Briefly, as the First President of L'Manberg, he wore a formal black suit with golden shoulder pads and a red tie.

As an outcast from Manberg, he wore a long brown trench coat with a (presumably bloodstained, though Wilbur has also claimed it to be wine, or food-stained) gray shirt, black cloak, and fingerless black gloves. The sleeves of the trench coat are rolled up unevenly.

Personality

Independence Arc

As the core founder and the First President of L'Manberg, Wilbur displayed strong charisma and leadership skills, preferring to use words rather than weapons. This belief would lead to him banning armor from L'Manberg in hopes of becoming a peaceful nation, and not a war-torn one. As a fledgling leader, he was cocky and self-assured, seemingly unaware of the dire consequences that forming a nation would bring.

Though he was a self-proclaimed 'Dirty Crime Boy' (and sometimes participated in or even started schemes revolving around drugs and scamming), he was one of the more lawful members of the server, and preferred to seek peaceful resolutions to conflicts. Both before and during battle, he tried to prevent and de-escalate the Dream Team SMP vs. L'Manberg War several times, and only resorted to violence after negotiations fell through. Contrary to popular belief, he did not force anybody to fight for him, and before Eret's betrayal, was very trusting of his fellow soldiers.

Despite often facing incredible odds, he was a resilient leader, looking death in the face multiple times and refusing to back down. He only considered surrendering to his enemies when he and his team had been completely defeated at the hands of betrayal, their land ravaged by TNT. He displayed loyal and selfless traits, even going so far as to use himself to draw the fire of the opposing side during the war.

He was a cunning character, often employing plans and tricks to fulfill his goals with as little resistance as possible. While he claimed to have a powerful moral compass (which he usually did, as he disliked killing for no reason and found most acts of violence to be fundamentally useless), this did not prevent him from attempting to perform immoral actions himself in attempts to consolidate his presidency, and order in his nation - notably, for example, he intended to host the elections with only his own party as the candidate role, and he intended to use Schlatt's endorsement as a tool to assert his control over L'Manberg.

Wilbur displayed an interest in literature. He kept and collected many of the written books on the server (such as POG2020's old election policies, war treaties, and the Declaration of Independance). He shared the books with Tubbo, who had a similar interest, and kept them in his ender chest when he lost his L'Manberg citizenship.

During his Presidency, he dealt with a lot of stress behind the scenes, most likely spurred on by rising disobedience (such as the Civil War between Fundy and Tubbo) and, later, the threat of being removed from his position in cabinet by the results of the Election. Despite this, Wilbur refused to let this stress show, likely in an attempt not to raise concerns among the nation, and only ever admitted to it post-death. This repression would likely serve as one of the precursors to his later downward spiral.

Manberg Rebellion Arc

Despite having initially considered himself to be in the right in his attempts to take down Schlatt's dictatorship, Wilbur lost faith in the morality of re-taking L'Manberg, coming to the conclusion that he had inadvertently started playing the role of the villain. His trust issues worsened, developing into a state of paranoia, and as more and more people seemed to leave his side (namely Fundy, who seemingly disowned him), he began to trust less and less, convincing himself that anyone who allied with Pogtopia would abandon them when it became clear they had no power.

Fearing ultimate abandonment, Wilbur acted somewhat manipulatively towards Tommy and Tubbo, projecting his own fears onto Tommy in particular in order to keep him around longer (though he would later regret provoking him excessively, and it would appear his focus was more on avoiding loneliness, rather than explicitly controlling Tommy). As he spiraled, Wilbur turned back on his previous ways of non-violence and diplomacy, resorting to plans of violence and bloodshed. His lost pride turned him into a paranoid wreck, unable to trust even Tubbo or Technoblade, two established allies of Pogtopia. He prepared himself mentally to kill anyone caught in the crossfire, as he believed himself to be completely alone. Later admissions from Ghostbur implied that he believed strongly at the time that nobody liked him.

Despite his mania, he seemed to value L'Manberg's integrity, ultimately only coming to the conclusion that it needed to be destroyed because its ideas of being free from tyranny had been permanently lost. He did not seem to value the concept of meaningless power at all, and never actually actively sought it, denying the position of leadership in Pogtopia and later denying the position of President in L'Manberg.

As his spiral progressed, and more and more people joined his side, Wilbur became more resolute in his plans, as the only person he really wanted to target was Schlatt. Even though he was quite clearly losing his grip on his mental health, he vehemently denied the rising idea that he was "insane", genuinely believing that he wasn't in the wrong with his assertions of the tumultuous revolutionary landscape.

Despite his conviction about his desires to completely destroy his nation (and go down with it), he struggled with actually pressing the button to destroy Manberg when given the opportunity, trying and failing on several occasions to go through with it. Even though he seemed to listen to others' plans for reclamation on the surface, he only ever felt safe knowing that he would ultimately press the button, promising himself that he would eventually return to it. He didn't consider Pogtopia to be a home at all, believing that he had no place in the world after the loss of his L'Manberg.

Even when it seemed he had achieved victory, Wilbur expressed heavy discontent with his irreversible losses and the ongoing violence of the people, believing that L’Manberg’s core ideologies had been lost forever. This resignation fueled his path to his ultimate self-destruction and later death. It would appear that Wilbur believed he was doing his nation a service by destroying it, as it was no longer the tyranny-free L'Manberg that he fought to bring to life.

Wilbur has said that at the end of his corruption arc, his character's D&D alignment is neutral evil, bordering on chaotic evil.

“	Wilbur is on the border of chaotic and neutral evil. Wilbur, in his chaotic sense, is a crazy man who wants to blow up his old nation and kill his friends. But, more realistically, in his neutral sense, Wilbur is the archetype of a man who had great power and who lost it all due to his own poor choices and negligence who sees destruction as his ratification.	”
—Wilbur on Reddit

Mental Health

Wilbur has a long history of issues with his mental health, presumably spanning back even before the conception of L'Manberg and picking up heavily with his exile from the country. Wilbur has always displayed a hunger to be accepted, especially from his father, Phil, implying that he struggled with feeling unloved or overlooked.

Despite his problems, Wilbur was never open about anything he struggled with, preferring to keep his mental health under wraps. As the First President of L'Manberg, Wilbur suffered heavily from the stress of leading the new nation (and presumably from the lasting trauma of the War for Independence) - in his own words, he would scream and cry into his pillow whenever he wasn't behind a podium. Even before being defeated in the election by his own hubris, he had severe trust issues, and appeared to fear losing the little control over the nation that he had. These would display clearest in his refusal to let even well-meaning non-Europeans into L'Manberg and his attempt to rig the election in his party's favor.

After being exiled from L'Manberg, Wilbur's personal issues with trust worsened. It would appear that his continued distrust of the world (and resultant paranoid actions) likely stemmed from Eret's betrayal back in the initial War for Independence and Schlatt's betrayal of ex-friendship, and was reinforced by Fundy's burning of the flag and later disowning of Wilbur. As his exile dragged on, Wilbur became increasingly paranoid that nobody was on his side, resulting in him slipping into a dark state of self-doubt, during which he came to the abrupt conclusion that he may have been playing the role of a villain the entire time.

This pseudo-psychotic break kick-started his corruption arc. With the conception of the explosion plot, Wilbur displayed dangerously suicidal tendencies, taking action with absolutely no regard for his personal wellbeing . Though he claimed he did not want to go down with it, this would turn out to be a lie, as he was fully aware that he would die in the button room when the explosives went off, and would later directly ask to go down alongside the nation. At the peaks of his spiral, he often refused to wear armour, even in high-danger situations. Also, he would regularly let himself grow hungry, without caring to eat. Wilbur also reportedly did not sleep.

Wilbur visited the button room supposedly at least eight times - it would appear he struggled with the act itself despite his confidence about its creation. This struggle was most likely borne of a deep inner turmoil of self-doubt and would only serve to worsen his self-deprecation, as he would berate himself out loud for it on multiple occasions. It is later heavily implied by Ghostbur that, alongside believing that everybody else didn't like him - a fact that is reinforced by his own words directly before his death - Alivebur did not like himself at all either.

In his spiral, Wilbur would rapidly shift his emotional tones unpredictably. Sometimes, he was almost manic, excitable, and sickeningly enthusiastic about the destruction he had planned for himself. Other times, he would become enraged at the situation he was in, expressing anger at resistance to his reckless ideas. Or, he would become almost depressive and deeply troubled, his mood turning somber and his enthusiastic facade disappearing to reveal the true nature of a man who'd lost everything.

His hunger to be seen and paid attention to resurfaced tenfold in his corruption arc, as he would insist on making sure that at least one person bore witness to his potential detonation on every attempt he made - it would appear that Wilbur did not want to die alone, and he berated himself aloud for being a "showman". This, in turn, made it clear that, even though Wilbur wanted for himself and Schlatt to die in the wreckage of his nation, he did not actually want anyone else to suffer the same fate, as he backed down from his plans when Tommy and Quackity threatened to go down with him. He would eventually make true on his suicidal desires even after Schlatt's death and the reclamation of L'Manberg, begging Philza to end his life.

Ghostbur's lack of memory surrounding his exile from Manberg and his loss in the election heavily implies that the events were traumatic in some degree to Wilbur, though this wouldn't become explicitly clear until his death.

Ideology

During Leadership of L'Manberg

Wilbur initially proposed the idea of L'Manberg as a capitalist-based nation in response to the mistreatment of himself and Tommy during their attempts to monopolise the "drug" (potion) market. He remained diplomatic, at first being open to the idea of a free partnership between the neighbouring nations. Notably, before the war, L'Manberg did not even consider an official title hierarchy, though Wilbur took a default leadership role as the one people looked to for duty assignment.

He built the idea of L'Manberg upon the concept of true freedom and emancipation, likely as a result of the unfair prosecution attempts that led to the nation forming. He would become resolute in his ideology, willing to die to see it come to fruition. He believed in the idea of being free from tyranny, intending for L'Manberg to be a safe space from what he would come to consider to be a hostile and dictatorial nation. The walls of L'Manberg were important to Wilbur, as he saw them as a protective force for the nation.

Notably, he did not construct L'Manberg on democratic baselines, instilling himself as the President without election. Later, he would come to favour democracy, as he recognised how it would be a necessary tool to properly instill properly recognised authority and order into the nation. Wilbur did not endorse chaos, and actively sought peace, going so far as to ban weapons and armour from his nation in a direct response to violence.

Later in his presidency, he would begin to attempt to enforce the idea of his own political power, as cracks began to form in the stability of the fledgling nation. The elections were called in order to consolidate his own control over the people, as Wilbur feared that his further inaction would lead to the people tearing themselves apart.

During Manberg Rebellion

During his his spiral, Wilbur never stopped valuing the core ideology of L'Manberg, even throughout his paranoid spiraling. He would become dangerously possessive over it, even holding it to a higher standard than ever before when he came to the despairing conclusion that it had been lost for good.

Wilbur recognised that Schlatt's leadership was a cruel dictatorship that suppressed the citizens. However, he saw that his forceful reclamation of L'Manberg would be tyrannical at best, and would only paint himself in blood. He also recognised that, as soon as Schlatt stopped being a threat to both him and Dream, their alliance would end, and that their fragile peace with the Dream SMP would once more be thrown into question as they resumed being ideological enemies.

His explosion plans were founded on the belief that, with the rise of Schlatt and the fall of democracy, the ideas of freedom and liberty in L'Manberg had been lost. He believed that, instead of being a safe space from tyranny, it had become a hot-spot for it, bringing tyrannical leaders and power struggles into the cabinet as time went on. Wilbur valued legitimate leadership, recognising the importance of having a legal claim to power and understanding that a coup-won leadership would be corrupt by nature.

He once lied to Tommy about intending to leave a power vacuum for someone else to fill - it would became clear that this was untrue, as Wilbur intended to leave no L'Manberg to reclaim at all, having come to the conclusion that L'Manberg's core ideologies had failed. In his final moments, he expressed excitement at having left nothing but a crater for the people to "lead".

He would make his newfound stances very clear in his last "presidential" speech, mentioning that Techno's anarchist ideals had rubbed off on him, and that he no longer believed that government was the way to go.

Despite Tubbo's apparent good nature, Wilbur had no faith in his presidency, recognising that even under his leadership, the nation was beyond repair. Ultimately, Wilbur lost hope in the land he made for freedom, believing it had lost the ability to ever be free again. At the end, Wilbur's detonation scheme was not about dethroning Schlatt, or reclaiming power, it was about ridding the land of the nation he had made.

History

Forming a Drug Operation

Wilbur joined the server with the intention to create a business revolving around selling "drugs" (potions) to the more combat-focused members of the Dream SMP, setting up a base of operations in the Camarvan.

Immediately after joining the server, Wilbur convinced Tommy to help him confiscate every brewing stand and blaze rod on the server in order to establish a monopoly on the potion industry. They initially operated under the pretense that they were confiscating tools for disposal, in hopes that nobody would call the cover story into question. Tubbo was willing to comply initially, but Sapnap challenged Wilbur and Tommy, refusing to follow their request.

After Tommy's arrest, and pressure from Eret and Sapnap guarding Wilbur's location and attempting to prosecute them all, Wilbur tried to help Fundy evade their judgment, guiding him to bury their valuables. Eret continued to keep an eye on Wilbur's location, pressuring him into taking a remote stance of leadership for Fundy. However, to their surprise, Eret defected from the side of the Dream Team, offering to keep Wilbur safe and declaring to him that he'd had a change of heart. Wilbur welcomed him into their ranks, and asked Eret to take over in escorting Fundy to the courthouse, hoping to secure their freedom. Purpled placed pressure on the group, snitching on the operation, and Wilbur began to voice his displeasure and dissent with the server's system of law enforcement, mocking the officers.

When Tubbo voiced a desire to make sure that Wilbur didn't do anything illegal, due to his ties to TommyInnit, he explained that he was attempting to remain completely legal, showing off the new oven layout he'd set up in the Camaravan. Realising that Tubbo was also trying to play the role of a police officer, Wilbur asked him to find out who stole his brewing stands, claiming that he'd intended to destroy them after "studying them", but they were now back in circulation in the SMP. When Tubbo offered him compensation, Wilbur denied, claiming he didn't want anything from anyone - though he voiced interest at the offer of being paid in gold, and the condition that he be left in peace.

Tommy contacted him multiple times about Fundy and Eret's situation across the duration of Wilbur's attempts to brew an invisibility potion, seeking his insight as he remained trapped in jail. He tried to inform Wilbur of their enemies' gear status, implying a violent approach, but Wilbur explained that he had no intentions of taking the killing-oriented route out. As he worked, he once again voiced his frustrations, stating that he'd been on the server for less than a day, and had already been screwed over by the law enforcement. Tommy contacted him one last time, informing him about Purpled's imminent interception of his activity. Wilbur tried to shake them off of his tail, mocking them as he went, but the officers held their focus on him.

Wilbur voiced his dissent with the situation yet again, openly casting shade on the operation style of the entire server. When Purpled's attention was taken away, Wilbur tried to take the heat off himself by focusing on the hot dog van, continuing to mock the police officer force for their mistake in pursuing him and not keeping an eye on the prisoners they were supposed to guard. He acted cockily in light of his victory over the officers, unfazed even when Sapnap tried to silence him with violence. When Tubbo spoke up defensively, he explained that he'd technically done nothing. He and Tubbo discussed the situation, and Wilbur voiced his frustration at Sapnap's desire for control.

Fundy asked what happened desperately, and Wilbur explained the situation to his regrouping allies. He decided to allow them all to hide in his Camaravan, stating that he had diplomatic immunity, as they wouldn't have reasonable evidence to assume that he was harbouring them. Purpled and Sapnap arrived to discuss the situation, and Wilbur offered to talk with them, persistently reminding them that he was innocent. He offered to cook a hot dog for them, preparing one for Sapnap and once again taking the chance to mock his chosen work in law enforcement.

Sapnap asked Wilbur if his drugs were good, to which Wilbur acted defensively, claiming he didn't do drugs. He let Purpled in the van to inspect, but Purpled broke down the room in which he was harbouring his allies. He tried to feign ignorance, but ended up logging off in order to evade Purpled's reaction to the situation and retain his status as a free man. Wilbur expressed that he wasn't done with his plans yet, and that he intended to return and continue his business after he had the supplies he needed, and could evade unlawful prosecution.

L'Manberg's Conception

Now intending to create a free nation, and not just a business, Wilbur logged on to the server to be greeted with a gift of blaze rods from Tubbo. He invited Tommy to see him in the Camaravan, dissuading him from wearing armour and explaining that he was starting a revolution, not a war. Wilbur voiced a desire to build a nation in which he could brew drugs without repercussions, reassuring Tommy that they were on the right side of history. As he set out the baseline for the nation he hoped to form in revolution, Wilbur likened his and Tommy's new stance to George Washington and Alexander Hamilton, from the Hamilton musical.

Sapnap attempted to get back on the good side of the duo, but Wilbur turned his offers of friendship down, referring to his prior actions as 'tryanny'. As he left, Wilbur informed Tommy that he needed sand, gravel, and dandelions, explaining that they needed to make a wall around their small land for the benefit of their revolution. Wilbur began to outline their claimed territory in concrete, building the base foundation for L'Manberg's walls.

Upon contacting Tubbo for supplies, he explained that they were starting a revolution, claiming their independence from the server and making their own unnamed land, in order to seek freedom from the Dream SMP faction. He explained that, after the drug war, he'd come to the conclusion that Americans couldn't be trusted to run their own nation, and that he was making his own nation in response.

The group began to think up a name, struggling to think of names not based on antonyms (as Wilbur didn't want to form his land on hatred, or unoriginality). Tommy came up with the name idea of Manberg (or, alternatively, Mantopia), in response to the nation's lack of European women. Wilbur voiced approval, wondering how to make the name more European sounding - he toyed with the name of United Manberg (UNM), but that sounded too similar to the United States. The group hit upon the prefix L', toying with the name of L'Manberg, and it stuck thanks to France's consistent association with revolutions.

Dream stumbled across the rising nation, and confronted the duo with weapons raised, so Wilbur encouraged Tommy to use his words rather than fight back with weapons. Wilbur invited him to a formal meeting, taking the recognised position as leader. When Dream questioned what was going on, he explained that they were removing themselves from the Dream SMP. Wilbur defended Tommy against Dream's acts of violence, attempting to take a respectful stance. He claimed that Dream could not take control of their land, explaining to him that they were a peace-based nation.

Wilbur responded to Dream's bragging confidently, disregarding his threats and his boasts without much thought. He requested for Dream to acknowledge their independent status, and when Dream explained that they would be taxed on the remainder of the Dream SMP, Wilbur agreed to the terms. He explained aloud that he did not consider Dream an enemy, but that he would be removing himself from Dream's "tyrannical rule". Wilbur offered for Dream to make an embassy in their own land, and for Tommy's house to become a L'Manberg embassy in Dream SMP land. He openly taunted Dream, acting cocky about their settlement.

Eret arrived at the situation, asking what Wilbur was doing, and Wilbur explained the situation to him, inviting him to stay with them when he voiced his interest thanks to his position as an European. He tasked Eret with upgrading the walls proper, using the foundations he laid out, and the group continued to work on progressing the nation underneath Wilbur's guidance. Wilbur called Tommy into question, claiming that he wasn't pulling his weight in consolidating the new land. After ensuring his loyalty, the group donned new fan-made revolutionary skins, completely cementing their role as a new nation on the server.

Wilbur gathered the group to write the first iteration of the Declaration of Independance, allowing for Tommy, Tubbo, and Eret to sign it alongside him. Upon the arrival of Fundy, who had yet to join the nation proper, and members of the Dream SMP, Wilbur read it aloud, and Dream, in turn, delivered a document to Wilbur for him to read - the official declaration of War. Wilbur rallied his group in the wake of imminent war, voicing his belief in their cause, and entrusting the preparation to the grouped members.

War for L'Manberg's Independence

Main article: Dream Team SMP vs. L'Manberg War

Wilbur arrived to war after the conclusion of peacetime, attempting to establish a formal meeting between the two sides after the Dream SMP forces rallied around the walls of L'Manberg. He gave Tommy the role of the commander to the L'Manberg 5th Revolutionary Battalion, stating that it would do more harm than good if he took the charge of the attacking front. The group travelled out to meet their enemies outside the L'Manberg Embassy, upon which Wilbur noted the armor discrepancy. When Tommy tried to retreat, though, Wilbur summoned them all back, briefly overriding Tommy's authority in order to keep the spirit going.

The group pressured the Dream SMP forces off of the tower they had perched off of, "chasing" them into the forest. As the battalion fired down on the forces from a Power Tower, Wilbur drew their attention, using himself as a distraction until they'd won a decisive victory in which the Dream SMP army retreated. Satisfied, Wilbur began to lead the group back, but Eret voiced that he had a secret edge that could win the war, and Wilbur responded with curiosity. He allowed Eret to lead the group to the Final Control Room, opening the chest labelled with his own name and voicing confusion when it was empty. Eret turned traitor, unleashing Dream and his men on their forces, and though Wilbur tried to rally his allies through the confusion, he and the rest of L'Manberg were killed, taking the first of their canon lives.

Wilbur voiced contempt for Eret, trying to evaluate the supplies they had left - among them, L'Manberg had nothing significant to their name. Wilbur traveled out to meet with Dream by himself, intending to negotiate an end to the war with Dream, but he denied, threatening to detonate a piece of TNT in L'Manberg's walls if they did not surrender. Wilbur treated the threat as insignificant, standing by his morals and encouraging the others to do the same, but when Dream lit the TNT, it activated a hidden wealth of explosives, completely decimating the land they stood on. Wilbur and the rest of L'Manberg took refuge in a panic room built by Tommy, and Wilbur admitted that he was finally out of ideas, and intended to surrender.

However, when trying to surrender, even though Wilbur tried to keep Tommy from running his mouth, he challenged Dream to a duel, and Dream accepted. Tommy turned to Wilbur for moral guidance, and Wilbur reassured him despite his initial doubts about him risking his life, stating that Tommy should follow his heart. He counted down the duel from ten, watching Tommy die to Dream's fired arrow. Shattered, he led his men back to L'Manberg's walls, awaiting their end, but upon Tommy securing their independence with the Disc trade, Wilbur regained his hope.

Atop the Camaravan, Wilbur penned a second version of the Declaration of Independance, finally officially cementing their full independence, and instilling himself formally as the First President of the nation.

Presidency of L'Manberg

Making note that L'Manberg was not formed on the basis of democracy, Wilbur appointed TommyInnit as his Vice President, Tubbo as his Secretary of State, and oversaw the reconstruction of the war-torn land. As the land saw prosperity, and the members healed and recovered from the war that had finally concluded, Wilbur took a key role in inviting Nihachu to be a member of L'Manberg.

In an attempt to earn more money for the Treasury, Wilbur executed a plan to start up L'Manberg's tourist business, intending to make the nation a desirable hotspot for visitation. He enlisted the help of Tommy and Tubbo in the plan, though he wondered if he'd accidentally influenced Tommy into having too strong an attachment to drugs when he proposed a strip club. Wilbur settled on making a paid park, though the park was oriented in the goal of attracting women and drug dealers (as per Tommy's wishes), though the park-alleyway result was a resounding failure in terms of money-making.

During The Railway Skirmish, Wilbur stepped in briefly when it appeared that Tommy's reckless actions may lead to a second war with the Dream Team, advising for him to instead take a diplomatic route in an attempt to prevent further bloodshed. He didn't take an active role in the war, though, instead only providing advice for his vice president.

In direct response to the rising threat of Civil War in L'Manberg's cabinet, it became clear that people were not listening to his decrees, and Wilbur grew frustrated, deciding he needed a way to reinforce and legitimize his position as the head of state. He set up and organized a presidential election, including Tommy as his Vice Presidential running mate. Their campaign was intended to be the only one on the ballot during the election, but this plan would quickly spiral out of control, as when he informed Quackity that the election was taking place, Quackity responded by creating the SWAG (So We Are Gamers) Party in opposition.

Because Wilbur had neglected to finalize the election ballot prior to this party's formation, Quackity's SWAG2020 campaign was perfectly legal and thus was eligible to run against him. To improve the marketability of their campaign, Wilbur and Tommy renamed what was up until then known as the The Right The Best Party to the POG (Politicians of Gaming) Party. With this, the SWAG2020 vs POG2020 Election began.

During the election cycle, Wilbur would participate in a presidential debate against Quackity, with Tommy participating in a vice presidential debate against Quackity's running mate, GeorgeNotFound. The debate ultimately didn't go well for either party, devolving into an argument without any structure. Later, in a final moment of solidarity between political rivals, Wilbur, Tommy, and Quackity built the White House for the future president to live in.

On the night before the election polls released, one last rally was held. When Wilbur's endorsement from a newly arrived Jschlatt went sour, he attempted to form a coalition with Quackity, but was denied when Quackity came to the conclusion that he was being used for votes. Instead, Quackity formed a coalition against POG2020 with the newly formed Schlatt2020, leaving Wilbur concerned for his position in cabinet as a whole. Shortly before the elections, Wilbur took Tommy's discs, promising to return them upon a victory for POG2020.

Wilbur's party ended up winning the popular vote with 45%, but due to the coalition between SWAG2020 and Schlatt2020, his party ended up losing the election by a margin of 1%. After passing the Presidency over to Schlatt, Wilbur ended up exiled by the new Second President of L'Manberg alongside Tommy, his citizenship having been forcefully revoked.

Exile from Manberg

Main article: The Manberg Rebellion

Due to being effectively banned from both SMP and L'Manberg soil, Wilbur led TommyInnit to a cave in the wilderness to rebuild and regroup. He began to work on building the rebellion, reluctantly letting Technoblade tag along in spite of his status as an American. He enlisted the help of Tubbo, who was working on the inside of the newly renamed Manberg, and moved the base of the newly created Pogtopia into a ravine system. Wilbur "returned" Tommy's discs to him shortly after their exile due to their technical victory with the popular vote.

He acted as the leader of the rebellion, tracking and countering Schlatt's movements every step of the way. Wilbur began by refusing to take any immediate violent action, focusing on espionage and intelligence based missions. He and Technoblade ventured out to Manberg upon recieving a tip that Niki was in danger, and he promised to eventually help her escape into Pogtopia. Shortly after returning back, Tommy entered the nation, and upon seeing the new flag, requested permission from Wilbur to burn it down. At first, Wilbur disagreed, claiming they should not throw the first stone, but Tubbo showed him a document with all of the new plans for Manberg, and he changed his mind, issuing the command for Tommy to set fire to the new Manberg flag.

During their exile, he and Tommy butted heads multiple times. Their disagreements started off as being casual bickering over decorations, but they escalated. Due to the construction of a tunnel to Pogtopia, Wilbur and Tubbo were forced to disconnect the newly expanded Prime Path briefly, which caused a new argument between him and Tommy. When Tommy grew upset, Wilbur proclaimed that there was a reason that he was not President, and that he never would be, and the two split ways for the remainder of the day.

Later, Wilbur and Tommy traveled out to watch Schlatt give a declaration. Once again, Wilbur dissuaded Tommy from assassinating the President, and they listened in secret to hear him announce the Manberg Festival.

Descent into Antagonism

Main article: Manberg Festival

On the return trip home after witnessing Schlatt announce the Manberg Festival, Wilbur wondered if he and Pogtopia were on the right side of history. He voiced his concerns aloud to Tommy, coming to the realisation that he was playing the role of a villain. Instead of rejecting this, though, Wilbur embraced it, seeing it as his only path to a satisfactory ending.

It became clear that during his exile, his mental state had been on a rapid decline, as he began to reconsider his relationships with his allies and his supporters. Wilbur seemed convinced that even Tubbo was not trustworthy, and that as soon as it was clear Schlatt would win, he would drop them for good.

Tommy tried to dissuade Wilbur from his paranoid delusions, but failed, and Wilbur came to the realisation that no matter what he did, he would lose. If he killed Schlatt, the people of Manburg would come after him - but if he remained inactive, Schlatt would come after him and have him executed. In his own words, he had nothing left to lose, which meant he had nothing stopping him from doing whatever he wanted.

In a rush of anger, Wilbur declared that if he couldn't have Manburg, nobody could, and he began to plot to blow the nation up during the Festival just how Dream had during the war. He initially secured 51 blocks of TNT from Dream, storing them in his Ender Chest, and subsequently rigged the festival area with them in an optimal pattern for destruction, priming them for their intended detonation during Tubbo's speech. Later, he approached Tubbo about it, informing him that the only way they could win against Schlatt was to destroy the one thing he cared about. He warned Tubbo about the TNT in order to allow him the opportunity to run, tried to dissuade him from speaking to Tommy again, and gave him the task of tearing down Manburg's flag once the rubble clears.

During the festival, Wilbur convinced Tommy not to actively oppose him, and the two laid in wait for Tubbo to speak his key words so he could activate the TNT. However, Tubbo ended up being caught after speaking the line. Wilbur tried to reassure Tubbo that Technoblade would not follow Schlatt's advice, but Techno did, leading to the Manberg Massacre. Wilbur tried to find his control room, only to panic and fail to find it, so he went to face Schlatt in the middle of Manberg. The two shared cold words, and Wilbur initiated a large scale scuffle (the latter half of the massacre), before realising his bomb plot needed to wait, and retreating to Pogtopia for the day.

Post-Manberg Festival

Upon retreating to the safety of Pogtopia, Wilbur invited Niki to join their ranks formally by sending her the coordinates to the base. As he let her in, he encouraged Tubbo, Technoblade, and Tommy to fight about what had just happened, even carving out a pit for Tommy and Techno to fistfight in. He goaded Tommy, reminding him he would never be president, pressuring him into striking at Techno in anger. Once the fight had concluded, Wilbur came to the conclusion that he wasn't done yet, and that his TNT plan was very much still a viable plot despite the failure of the festival. After securing Techno's willing support in his scheme, and explaining how he planned to duplicate TNT, the day's events came to a close.

The day after, Tommy announced to Wilbur that he had recruited Quackity to their side, and he watched as they pulled off a minor prank on Manberg. Despite initial hesitation, he led Tommy and Quackity to the location of his button, and proceeded to talk to them before threatening to push it. Both Quackity and Tommy tried to stop him initially, encasing him in stone, before stepping aside and deciding to let him make his decision. Wilbur turned away, realising he didn't have the strength to go through with it yet, and agreed to leave it for another day, destroying it. However, when Tommy and Quackity had their backs turned, he placed it back, singing the anthem in order to calm himself, and promising that one day he would be back for it.

The three regrouped and went to discuss a new plan to retake Manberg - "Plan Ass" - involving Quackity's betrayal of Schlatt. Wilbur seemed to support the plan vocally, though it's not clear if he ever had any faith in it, because he was persistent in making several backup plans, one of which was his network of bombs - "Plan Bomb".

Rising Tension around Plan Ass

After a week of silence regarding the progression of Plan Ass, Wilbur seemed to lose faith in the idea. At the end of Nihachu's birthday party, an event he had been invited to, and had been drinking at, he revealed that he'd been waiting for an audience in order to resume his explosion plot, and attempted to detonate the rigged TNT again.

Quackity, who was in attendance, managed to convince him to hold off on Plan Bomb by promising that one, he would secure the primary plan by Friday the 6th of November, and two, that if things showed the slightest signs of going wrong, Wilbur could detonate the explosives. He agreed to this plan, and presumably logged off in the button room in anticipation.

The Meeting

Wilbur accompanied Tommy to watch Quackity attempt to scam Schlatt out of his leadership, ready to detonate at any moment. The plan fell through, and Wilbur extracted Quackity from the situation by firing an invisibility arrow at him. When things fell further south, he ran to detonate the bombs as promised, but Schlatt had deactivated them, rendering them useless when he pressed the button. Believing that the TNT had been relocated to their base, he retreated to Pogtopia, where Fundy and BadBoyHalo joined them - notably, Wilbur did not take the bomb threat seriously, playing with the copious amounts of buttons that had been placed earlier as a prank by Fundy.

Fundy revealed his gathered intelligence on Schlatt's declining health - A Spy's Diary - to Wilbur, prompting him to suddenly believe the power had shifted, and that the people were once again siding with his side of the rebellion. This seemed to only fuel Wilbur's drive to explode Manberg, believing that only his one true enemy would be affected, and only seemed to further his theory that people only rallied around whoever appeared to be strongest.

Dream entered Pogtopia, informing the members that he had been offered something that the rebellion could not provide, and that he would be defending Schlatt from that point onwards. Despite his shift in loyalty, he still supported Wilbur's bomb plot, offering to provide gunpowder for new TNT. Wilbur proposed that they set up an end to the scheming and the plotting, choosing a date for a final conflict that would end the fighting between Pogtopia and Manberg and finally declare a victor.

After agreeing to the 16th of November, Dream revealed that there was a traitor among the ranks of Pogtopia, someone who would be more surprising than Eret. At this point, he and Wilbur were already in partnership, and Wilbur had made a deal with him that no matter what the outcome of the war was, he would detonate Manberg. Vocally, though, Wilbur reassured the members of the rebellion that he would fight on their side, and that he would only detonate the land if Pogtopia showed any signs of losing.

Together with the members of Pogtopia, Wilbur formally established the L'Mantree, a landmark of the nation that had survived the copious amounts of war they had suffered through. He marked it with a sign, mentioning that it needed to be protected for as long as possible, especially in the upcoming war - at this point in time, Wilbur was already conscious that he would inevitably end up lighting the TNT to explode the area.

Afterwards, the members of Pogtopia began to formally plan for war, but Wilbur did not take a vocal part in the process. As the rest of the rebellion members began to prepare, he took a back seat, eventually separating himself entirely from the group in order to go and collect sand to make TNT. Before the war, he managed to amass eleven and a half stacks of TNT, laying them beneath Manberg and wiring them up to his button room.

Main article: Manberg vs Pogtopia War

Wilbur seemed to better a little as he worked alongside the rebellion during the takeback of L'Manberg, fighting with his allies and expressing a false sense of hope - though, notably, he refused to wear any armour. He reassured Tommy that he would not detonate the land if things went well, and voiced belief that everyone was on his side. This was an act; at several points over the course of fighting, Wilbur spoke up about how it was most likely that he himself was the traitor. During early conflict, Dream seemed to make an effort not to attack Wilbur despite his lack of armour, and Wilbur purposefully missed several opportunities he had to attack or kill Dream.

Despite his somewhat suspicious behaviour, such as his purposeful trailing behind the group, or his disappearance mid-fight to speak to Dream privately, nobody seemed to take the threat of him betraying them seriously, likely believing Wilbur's betrayal would be too obvious to be true. On the cue of Dream, he stopped the fighting and herded everyone into a room to watch Schlatt die of a stroke. Dream proceeded to claim that there had been no traitor, to which Wilbur feigned a surprised reaction.

In the haze of supposed victory, he chose Tommy to be a new president, but when Tommy refused and tried deflecting, he elected Tubbo instead. After Tubbo finished his speech, he excused himself, intending to make true on his promise to destroy L'Manberg once and for all, having come to the conclusion that the land he had once fought for, even with his friend at the helm, was well and truly dead.

Finally realising that he needed to step in to save his son, Philza spawned behind him and attempted to talk him out of it, but Wilbur could not be convinced, and he detonated the explosives, destroying the majority of central L'Manberg. He then handed Phil his sword, and ordered for his father to kill him. After a long hesitation, Phil complied, and Wilbur surveyed the damage he had caused once more before canonically dying.

Authorship

As a fan of literature and an advocate for the preservation of history, Wilbur personally wrote and signed a significant amount of the plot-important documents on the server, both during his life and after it. Though they were once preserved on the server, as of the Doomsday War, most (if not all) of these books have been destroyed.

Declaration of Independance - Written shortly after L'Manberg's conception, the Declaration serves as a formal recognition for the nation's desire to remain separate from the greater Dream SMP. Two versions were authored (the first titled Independance, and the second titled Decree), both penned by Wilbur, as the first had been signed by Eret before his betrayal of the nation during the War for Independence. The second would officially promote Wilbur as the First President of the new nation.

Trade (9/8/20) - A formal trade agreement signed by Wilbur as President of L'Manberg, dealing with the bartering of commodities such as drugs, hitmen, and lemons.

Electoral Ballot - The official document that would call for the SWAG2020 vs POG2020 Election, the first (and only) L'Manberg Election. Wilbur intended to finalize and sign this document before SWAG2020 could enter, but forgot to close it in time, ruining his plans to keep the nation under the leadership of a single party.

POG Policies - Written during the run-up to the Election as a formal list of POG2020's promises should they be re-elected into presidency. Wilbur would bring this document to the L'Manberg Presidential Debate and attempt to persuade people into voting for his party with the various promises on the list.

Personal Items

Wilbur has never had very many personal items to his name. Even in life, he often refused to wear armour, and never personalised any items with his own names. In past, he has rarely had named weapons, such as the now-lost Pogtopia Stabber. He lost the majority of his items in exile, as his ender chest space was taken by his literature. Later, when some of the literature was moved into Tubbo's care, Wilbur would fill his Ender Chest with stacks of TNT instead.

Known Personal Items
Name of Item	Notes
Chekhov's Gun	An enchanted crossbow presumably made by Wilbur himself near his death. Its name makes light of Wilbur's persistent habit of referring to his TNT Button as a Chekhov's Gun.

L'Dog	Presumed Dead		L'Dog was tamed by Wilbur when Tommy was out helping Technoblade reach Pogtopia. Later when the two return to Pogtopia, Technoblade was distracted by L'Dog. Technoblade commented on L'Dog's erratic movements, which Wilbur said is due to him being "frisky." Prior to being named L'Mandog, Wilbur called him L'Chien (which is from French for dog, le chien). At the top of HBomb's Tower, Fundy punched a dog off the tower, to its death. It is unknown if this was L'Dog.

Relationships

Known Relationships
Name	Status	Notes
Technoblade	Positive	Wilbur and Technoblade often acted like brothers, supposedly having shared a long history together. The two were allies in Pogtopia, Techno having arrived on the server in order to assist their rebellion. However, Wilbur refused to wholly trust Techno, even after he created the semi-automated potato farm he was tasked to, believing that due to Techno's motive to stab people, he would eventually grow tired of Pogtopia's rebellion tactics and switch sides in order to fight for Schlatt and create some excitement. After Wilbur's snap, he trusted Techno even less, despite the fact that they both aligned themselves in goals of anarchy. After realising that Technoblade wholeheartedly supported Wilbur's destructive plans, Wilbur since forgave Techno for his actions against Tubbo, despite admitting he trusted him too much during the run-up to the Festival. Wilbur and Techno were both individual traitors to the rebellion's intention to re-establish government (though this was not an official co-ordinatinon), and as a result, were close moral allies to the end. Ultimately, Wilbur's self-destruction was a precursor to Techno's surge of ongoing anarchist beliefs. In his final speech to the nation, Wilbur even stated that Techno's anarchist beliefs had rubbed off on him, and that he shared his pseudo-brother's anti-government stance.
Tubbo	Positive	Tubbo is Wilbur's adoptive brother. Having fought in the War for Independence together, Wilbur and Tubbo were on very good terms. However, their relationship soured somewhat after Wilbur's exile from Manberg. Although Tubbo worked as a spy for Pogtopia, Wilbur continued to doubt Tubbo's loyalty due to the latter's role in the Schlatt administration, and believed that Tubbo would desert Pogtopia as soon as Manberg gained the upper hand in the war. Wilbur also claimed that Tubbo was a "yes man", with no morals of his own. After Tubbo was caught as a traitor and executed, Wilbur welcomed him into Pogtopia, but the two's relationship remained tense. Despite their tense relationship, Wilbur refused to detonate Manberg while he was stuck in immediate danger of the explosion. Tubbo frequently called Wilbur crazy before and during the war, but they worked side by side throughout it nonetheless. Wilbur elected Tubbo as the new president after stepping down, though this was not out of much trust, as Wilbur would later state he had no faith in Tubbo's presidency, as he believed it to be long-gone anyway. Wilbur's final detonation would firmly place him against Tubbo, souring their relationship briefly. They were briefly at odds after Wilbur's death, though in his final moments of mental clarity, Wilbur explained that he never intended to detonate Tubbo's L'Manberg. This would prove that despite his lack of faith in the nation, in life, Wilbur never actually disliked Tubbo.
Philza	Neutral/Positive	Phil is Wilbur's father. Not much is known about the exact nature of their relationship before Wilbur's spiral, but it can be assumed that they were once close. It would appear that the two had a less than optimal familial relationship during Wilbur's life, with Phil often condemning his later actions while praising Techno's. Despite this, Wilbur valued Phil's opinion highly, thinking back to him and wondering if he'd be proud of him in what he once considered to be his final moments. Phil was the one who attempted to stop Wilbur detonate L'Manberg on the sixteenth, during which their dialogue was strained and tense, proving how Wilbur's spiral had driven a further wedge in their relationship. Ultimately, Wilbur begged for Phil to kill him, despite his father's resistance, and Phil reluctantly agreed to follow his wishes.
Quackity	Neutral/Positive	Quackity and Wilbur were once the main rivals in the SWAG2020 vs POG2020 Election (during which Wilbur acknowledged that he had good intentions for L'Manberg individually) and initially were enemies in The Manberg Rebellion. However, after the Festival, Quackity joined Pogtopia, and become an ally to his rebellion, working to help them take down Schlatt. Quackity wanted to work alongside Wilbur, but did not endorse his explosion plot, frequently trying to dissuade him from it altogether - this frustrated Wilbur quite a lot. The two had a fluctuating and confusing relationship in Pogtopia, switching between being borderline romantic to tense and resentful incredibly quickly. Wilbur seemed to support the idea of Quackity taking presidency at one point, indicating that they were never really spiteful enemies, though he still preferred the idea of just burning the country to the ground. Quackity repeatedly tried to dissuade Wilbur from continuing to explode things, but Wilbur seems to think of his resistance as some sort of joke. After his detonation of L'Manberg, their relationship soured. Despite their rocky relationship, Wilbur refused to detonate the explosives while Quackity was in immediate danger, stating he did not want to kill him.
Tommy	Neutral/Positive	Tommy is Wilbur's little brother. In life, Wilbur often acted as Tommy's mentor, guiding him through L'Manberg's creation and testing his loyalty in times of trouble. On multiple occasions, he held Tommy back from his own hastiness, doing his best to keep him from making dire mistakes during their leadership of L'Manberg. Under Wilbur's mentorship, Tommy bloomed into a confident and matured warrior, willing to risk everything for his nation. However, in their first exile, Tommy strongly condemned Wilbur's moral shift, and his plans to destroy Manberg. Their relationship became very strained due to this, to the point where Tommy no longer saw Wilbur as an ally. However, they remained together out of necessity, and Tommy voiced a desire to snap Wilbur out of his spiral. After Tommy took charge of the rebellion in the wake of a new war, Wilbur grew more distant from him and his plans to restore L'Manberg's government. Wilbur displayed trust in him during the war itself, but after Wilbur self-detonated, their relationship soured incredibly as it became clear he had not changed his plans at all. Despite their troubles, Wilbur valued Tommy enough to refuse to detonate the bombs while his life was in immediate danger, and it would seem that he valued his company in the ravine quite highly, speaking to Tommy with a fond, nostalgic tone during the build-up to the Red Festival, the day Wilbur once assumed to be his last day alive on the server.
Dream	Archivo:RelationshipNeutral LargePixelArt.png Neutral	Wilbur's relationship with Dream was tricky during his life. They were once bitter enemies on the server, leading opposing sides during the War for Independence, and they often clashed vocally over the battlefield as their nation's corresponding leaders. However, after the conclusion of the fighting, Dream seemed to have mellowed out towards Wilbur, and upon the banishment by Schlatt, Dream offered to help Wilbur's rebellion. Dream claimed to be helping Wilbur out of a change of heart, but Wilbur remained convinced that Dream was only looking to foster conflict in the SMP, and take down both Manberg and Pogtopia in one fell swoop, though this didn't bother him as Dream's intentions aligned enough with his own. During the Manberg vs. Pogtopia War, Dream sided with Schlatt, and for a period, Wilbur was publicly against him. However, in secret, Wilbur was actually still working alongside Dream as a traitor to his rebellion's cause, and blew up the TNT as per his wishes. The two were functional allies at the end, though Wilbur likely did not feel much warmth towards him.
Niki	Archivo:Relationship SlightlyNegative LargePixelArt.png Neutral/Negative	Wilbur and Niki were good friends on the server, Niki having been introduced to L'Manburg thanks to Wilbur. During Wilbur's exile, she led a rebellion in his stead, withstanding heavy repercussions for his sake. Wilbur did intend to eventually rescue her from Manberg after having defended her bakery on an espionage mission, but due to his corruption, he never managed to pull through on it. Upon her eventual joining of Pogtopia, it became clear that Niki did not side with Wilbur's detonation plan at all, and the two seemed more distant than usual during Wilbur's spiral. During the war, they appeared to be closer despite Wilbur's unstable tendencies, but after Wilbur's detonation, their relationship has been forever soured. Wilbur's death would later influence Niki's own spiral into instability.
Fundy	Archivo:Relationship SlightlyNegative LargePixelArt.png Neutral/Negative	Fundy is Wilbur's son, having been born inside L'Manburg's walls. Wilbur often babied Fundy, to the point where he assigned him a crayon coloured version of the L'Manburg uniform over the usual royal blue one. This excessive childish treatment led to tension between the two, as Fundy grew rebellious and Wilbur grew more overbearing. He refused to give his son proper acknowledgment for his war efforts, claiming that he was too young and needed time to properly understand the weight of a political role in the cabinet. Fundy eventually came out and revealed that he was always on Wilbur's side of the rebellion, leaking confidential information to him in the form of the Spy's Diary. Wilbur seemed to still distrust his son in spite of this, referring to him as a traitor and outwardly claiming to despise him, though this was said in a non-serious manner. It could simply be that Wilbur had stopped caring at that point about betrayal, as he had already made the decision to betray Pogtopia. Even after his betrayal, Wilbur displayed defensive affection for his son, attempting to defend him against Schlatt's abuse.
Eret	Negative	During the initial War for L'Manbergian Independence, Wilbur initially was open to Eret joining the nation, stating that he automatically had a visa due to his European blood. He displayed trust in him up until his betrayal, completely blind-sided by Eret's turncoat actions. After the mid-war betrayal, Wilbur despised Eret for his actions, seeing Eret as nothing but a traitor and often cursing him out or acting defensively around him. His prejudices against Eret would lead to him persistently refusing any support he offered to him and Tommy during their exile from Manberg. They fought on the same side in the final Rebellion war, but this may only be because Wilbur was already a traitor at that time, and he no longer cared about the others' loyalties.
Schlatt	Negative	Wilbur and Schlatt were once friends on the server before L'Manberg's conceptualization, close enough to the point that Wilbur trusted him enough to endorse his political party. It has been implied by both Schlatt and Quackity that the two were once even close past friendship, but this is heavily disputed. However, when Schlatt became the Second President of L'Manberg, he exiled Wilbur and painted the falsified image of him as a dictator, ruining their relationship and turning them into bitter enemies. Wilbur and Schlatt clashed frequently over the course of the Manberg Rebellion, and even when Wilbur was a traitor to his rebellion, neither he nor Dream was on Schlatt's side. Despite their once-friendship, Alivebur ultimately despised Schlatt for what he did to his once-peaceful nation.
