Beginning their civ career in July 2013, Lowtuff became famous for their far-reaching diplomacy in service of [[New Danzilona]] and their extensive mapping, notably marking visited locations with signs that read "hi - Lowtuff." After the end of [[Civcraft 3.0]], Lowtuff helped found [[Provincia]] on [[CivClassics 2.0|CivClassics]] and played only intermittently before eventuallyreturning decidingin toearly recreate2021 - refounding the 2.0 city of [[Carson (CivClassic)|Carson]] from 2.0 after an IRL dalliance with the works of Kevin Carson in April 2021that year.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/mz8clq/preliminary_planning_permissions_post_pertaining/</ref> OverA thelongtime coursecitizen of Danzilona and the U3P, through their civ career, they hadhave also been a citizen or resident of New[[Fellowship]], DanzilonaSaraliana, [[Tropica]], [[Mount Augusta (Civcraft 2.0)|Mt.

Over the course of 2021, Lowtuff had beenwas pearled no less than 5 times on various trespassing and related charges due to a relentless and principled commitment to free knowledge and the rights of civvers to peaceably travel unmolested about a public server.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/nwy27w/the_lowtuff_all_tomato/</ref>

Lowtuff first began their career by joining New Danzilona with two of their IRL friends in July 2013.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/1itvtf/if_no_one_could_touch_beetees_shack_yet_thatd_be/</ref>Lowtuff quickly became an active explorer and pioneer for NDZ, overseeing the foundationdevelopment of theirjungle & nether biome colonycolonies as well as establishing more bases in their immediate surroundings, most notably claiming the city of [[Babylon]].<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/1k5we0/hooray_for_imperialism/</ref><ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/1jvql7/a_new_dawn_rises_and_with_it_rises_a_new_town_of/</ref> Along their travels, Lowtuff developed a knack for mapping and went on to spend much of their time on [[CivCraft 2.0|Civcraft 2.0]] mapping out the entirety of the +,+ quadrant.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/1nblx7/i_made_a_maaaaaaaap/</ref><ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Civcraft/comments/224sfp/an_updated_accurate_map_of_the_plus_plus/</ref>Interacting with a variety of cities around the map also led Lowtuff to forming an interest in diplomacy. They became a foreign representative for NDZ numerous times and helped found the [[United Provinces of the Plus Plus]].<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/UnitedProvinces/comments/1szuo0/embassies/</ref><ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/1ph3gh/we_should_really_formalise_the_alliance_system_we/</ref><ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/1wenbv/lets_talk_realpolitik_friends_lowtuffs_campaign/</ref>

Lowtuff took part in the founding of Provincia in the summer of 2017, becoming a moderator of its subreddit, but was not very active in any of its subsequent activities. It was not until almost 4 years later when Lowtuff was inspired to become active again and found the city of Carson as a homage to the Civcraft 2.0 city of the same name. The hole for Carson was completed in June 2021 after 2 months of digging.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/o9a5ag/dread_it_run_from_it_carson_arrives_all_the_same/</ref> During their time as leader of Carson, however, Lowtuff would be pearled by the [[Mutual Assistance Command|MAC]] a number of times, first for randomspawning in the vault of [[Imperial Truidence]] and then for allegedly trespassing in [[Mir]]. Though Lowtuff did not enter the borders of Mir, the current mapping technology inherently revealed blocks within their borders, which they erroneously booked them for. Lowtuff was finally released during [[Pearled Harbor]], immediately repearled by [[Hjaltland]], and then released once again to take part in the End of the World party.

Lowtuff helped found the city of Merthyr with former CCCP friends, playing only occasionally to help with others' build projects. Lowtuff secretly buried [[ChocChips]] 3 (3) times while they were AFK in Methyr.
