The Weaver (creator)

Sick and Wrong

Weaver^[1] is a Quest gamer who got his start as an artist on 4chan's /tg/ board.

One of the oldest quest authors, as Weaver's popular quest Ruby Quest brought the medium into the spotlight and influenced many subsequent quest authors.

Created the "cutebold" and "d'awwblin" style interpretations of kobolds and goblins respectively, originally created in comics and inspired by various events from Dwarf Fortress.

He is known to be a close friend to Reaver--author of Mudy Quest and Knight Blades--whom he shared Supporting Protagonist in the Self-Insert Fic WeaveReave Quest.

Has been known to suffer from "Dainty Leg Syndrome".

As of recently, Weaver was been getting into the My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic craze and has since done a number of Fan Arts and related projects and even has his own Ask a Pony blog, Ask Ice Pack.

Tropes that apply to The Weaver himself:

• Author Avatar: Two — /tg/ Weaver and "Weavy the little brown girl"
• The Chessmaster
• Deadpan Snarker
• Large Ham: On occasions; especially prevalent during John Quest.
• Rage Breaking Point: At one, major point during Ruby after getting frustrated from /tg/'s lack of useful ideas.^[4]
  • And again in the next post^[5]
• The Reveal: When Weaver had confessed that he had indeed been the one to have written The Metal Glen poem, not William Murdoch as he had most everyone convinced.
• Self-Deprecation
• Spell My Name with a "The": Inverted. Most every time his name comes up^[6], he is referred to as "The Weaver"; but he goes simply by "Weaver" during his Quest campaigns.
• Trolling Creator/ Trolling: A master at this on the occasions he decides/(pretends) to prank the players by branching the story off into one of his wild, erratic discontinuities; or otherwise, break into one from out of nowhere. In one instance, he even started a wild gag while using the title "NotWeaver" then switched back to his regular title in the same thread, feigning innocence/ obliviousness to the matter afterwards.
