Career

Brief Civ Server History

Civcraft 1.0

Played under the IGN "ITIDeathGod" and joined 1.0 in January, 2013, with players such as Mark_Antony, Varkanos, HerbieVersmells, and Roma_Victor(Silianat) from a factions server known as MC Titan. Together with other migrants who have long been inactive, they founded 1.0 SPQR and were involved in the conflicts with Yugoslavia, Beunos Aires, and Gondolin(Aristopolis). Allied to Gondolin, SPQR fought on their side during the vaunted battle that became known as the "Valentine's Day Massacre." ITIDeathGod was among the combatants and was pearled by forces under ZombieLenin and Buenos Aires, alongside most of his allies. Realizing they could not hold the pearls for long, he was released the next day. SPQR was mostly peaceful for the rest of 1.0, except for some rogue HCF raiders in the city from time to time. He served as Censor of the city until the end of the server.

Civcraft 2.0

Still using ITIDeathGod(hereby referenced as 'ITI'), founded Solis with other 1.0 SPQR veterans. Serving in the Knights of St. John order, his group served as the backbone of Solis industry for the majority of the city's duration. Being allies of Gondolin's successor state, Minas Minas, they were subject to its many enemies. Suffering from constant griefing and threat of attack, life in Solis was difficult. During this time, he aided in pearling raiders that attacked Metroplis region with other allies on more than one occasion. He fought as a part of the Metro Marines that chased the Butter Brigade out of Minas Minas in July, 2013, resulting in many of the BB group being pearled. He also helped the city of Orion clear its significant obby grief following one of its many attacks. During various times in Solis, he held the position of Praetor, Censor, and Pro-Consul. During an internal incident, one of the elected Consuls, Ghalen37, was attacked by a citizen named JUPITERMAXIMUS and pearled over a trespassing dispute. ITI and another Knights of St. John member, ToastTemplar, attacked and pearled JUPITERMAXIMUS and freed the Consul.

After a dispute regarding alleged theft of Knights of St. John valuables by a member named Poopdish, ITI and xRiptidex griefed and destroyed their house in Solis. This act was illegal and ITI and xRiptidex were expelled from Solis and a bounty was placed on the both of them. Riptide was pearled by Solis forces and held for trial. ITI remained at large (and did not log in) while Mark_Antony fought to diplomatically resolve the issue. Eventually, the situation was resolved without further escalation. The bounty was voided and xRiptidex was freed. Riptide journeyed to Orion, where he eventually became a leader in the city. He extended an invitation to ITI to join the city, however, he declined and remained a citizen of Solis.

Eventually, Berge403 and the other leaders of Metropolis became inactive, which left Solis vulnerable to attack. By order of Mark_Antony, the city was abandoned, and Roma was founded far to the west, near -,- world border. Here, the city flourished with many new members and allies and ITI aided in building much of the early infrastructure. He attended the triumph and crowning of Mark_Antony as SPQR Emperor, which was attended by dozens of citizens from across the server. Sometime during this iteration, the account CiceroTheOrator was created as an alt, which eventually became _Cicero_.

Civclassics

Following the Somber War, Cicero was persuaded to play civ again after a 3 year absence by Varkanos and Mickale, Cicero joined Varkonia in 2018 and served as one of the city's founders. Eventually serving on the city's senate each month he ran and constructed over 1/3 of the city by the end of the server. He also helped build VarkVault with many other Varkonian slaves. While mostly inactive during the Infinity War, he provided moral support by laughing at Mickale when he talked about how much time he spent bunker busting and skybridging with allies.

CivMC
