On the January 23<sup>rd</sup>, 2020 Rain established the [[Industrial Workers of the World]] (IWW), an organization of anarchist, socialist, and communist countries on the northern continent of Napistan, though the anarchist part is disputed due to later events. Rain chose this area as the northern continent of Napistan was largely unclaimed compared to the rest of the world.
When the IWW was declared on the 23rd of January, Rain recruited players to join the server and began to set up communes in the region

Later, Rain begun a recruitment campaign utilizing the [[Anarchist Communist Association]] discord that he ran. Along with Reddit posts, the IWW grew incredibly quickly,
The IWW was a very loose and disorganized group as many did not fully understand the mechanics present on CivRealms. This later lead to the easy bombing of Tolstoy by PartyAnimal with Rain and [[EmDubleYou]]

Rain was unpearled after his two weeks was up and proceeded to contribute to the IWW. Sometime later some members of the IWW would make calls to have a vote on a new leader. In doing so, the role of complete ownership came to be titled "Server Organizer" or SO. Folks including Rain, Freezor, Ian, Pierre, and Hiduck ran for the new Server Organizer position. Initially, the opposition against Rain was divided. However, a series of events and manipulation lead to an outcome that elected [[HeyDuckHi]].
At the end of the day Rain did honor the vote and transferred ownership of the IWW. In spite of this he attempted to undermine the new leadership as well as spam shit tier memes. This ended up with him getting banned from the IWW discord.

After leaving Napistan, Rain would end up settling in [[Norlund]]. This was suggested by a user named 1234fireball who suggested to him that he should create a town and petition to become a municipality within Norlund. He would end up founding the Paris Commune and the Black Internationale while in Norlund.<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/CivRealms/comments/ga9kly/what_we_proclaim_is_the_right_to_wellbeing/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 RainOfPain125 publicly declaring the the Black Internationale on r/CivRealms]</ref>▼
While the Paris Commune was accepted into the government itself,{{when}} Rain would immediately face opposition from the majority of Norlund. While this caused widespread public outcry, King Terry of Norlund at the time, reacted with indifference. When King Terry of Norlund could no longer play CivRealms, a referendum was held in which ShamelessShamus became the King of Norlund. As a result of an argument and annexation of Paris Commune territory, Shamus pearled Rain. This was seen as a controversial move at the time within Norlund due to Rain being a Norlish citizen and the pearling being an extrajudicial killing.{{citation needed}} It would come to be known as "[[Norlund#The King's Crime|"The King's Crime"]]," result in King Shamus being removed from power within Norlund. ▼
Rain would leave Napistan as an exile of his own nation. He left, but was supported by his former IWW comrades [[ADAM]] and [[VeryStrange]], of which Strange would note their disapproval of Ducky's attitude and leadership style as hostile.<ref>[https://i.imgur.com/9ptL1OM.png ExcaliburSword (VeryStrange) expressing their concerns with post-Rain IWW leadership]</ref> Rain was also soon given support by his associate [[1234fireball]]

=CivUniverse=
===Wyvern===
Rain saw CivUniverse as an opportunity to begin again. He would end up joining the small building nation of Wyvern with his friend [[UnknownKarnij]]. This stint wouldn’t last for long as a user named Prebanned along with a friend decided to travel to Wyvern and kill Rain.
Of course this isn’t the end. He left Rain’s pearl in a random chest in the middle of nowhere and the pearl would proceed to expire the next day. After this to make sure this didn’t happen again the council of Wyvern evicted Rain but gave him time to gather his belongings and demolish his house.
===Guthrie Commune===
After this he’d move to a jungle with [[Zombie_Striker]] where they would both proceed to secretly build an underground commune named after [https://
He’d join the voice chat of the Fempire Union and hang out while touring the nation, until members of Camertem raided the voice chat and verbally berated Rain for minutes, making tens of accusations and interrogating him randomly in the Fempire voice chat, which made Rain and everyone else there very uncomfortable, with members of Fempire asking them multiple times to leave and take it somewhere else. After a few minutes of screaming and accusing, they ended with saying that Rain and his friends were kicked out of Camertem and not allowed back for no reason provided, with no evidence provided.
Rain got on the nerves of the CivUniverse staff which led to him being frequently muted on both Discord and the CivUniverse global chat. Rain frequently argued with notable player [[Vespasian]] who was posting content about race theory among other racist things, resulting him being muted and the eventual removal of the #shitflinging channel on the CivUniverse Discord.

Rain joined CivClassics in late June of 2021. He spent all of his time in [[The No State Commune]]. Mainly building and having fun with friends. He never joined other nations or did much else.

===RainOfPain125-Acadia Conflict===
{{Main||TNSC-Acadia Conflict}}
===
Shortly after [[The No State Commune]] was raided by Acadia and others, Rain had quit playing [[CivClassics]]. Though he remained on the r/CivClassics subreddit making comments. One day Rain noticed on his phone that he received two different notifications to a post he made, both posts containing the same content, but both posts written by different authors. From his perspective he thought it was funny that he caught someone using their alt reddit account, and let the user know that he saw it by replying to the content with a link to an image of the two notifications side by side together.
Rain argues that he never looked at the account before posting the image, nor did he intend to dox the user. However, his action was seen as an attempt to dox the user, who was from Acadia.
Rain counter-argued that he didn't mean to harm, and pointed out that if someone in his situation truly wanted to cause harm that they could. He argued that if his intent actually was to dox this user, then he would have looked through the alt accounts' posts and comments gathering as much details and personal information, compile it together, then publish it publicly - which he did not do.
The CivClassics staff team would temporarily ban Rain for one month. This struck less observant users as weird, because doxers are almost always permanently banned. However, the CivClassics staff team believed that doxing the user was accidental, and no personal details were gathered. To calm the community and at the request of Rain
The user would later go on to say that they would not pre-ban Rain from his server, because "The dox was real but I do not believe it was intended as one."<ref>[https://i.imgur.com/I77uegc.jpg Clearing up rumors of Doxxing]</ref> The alt username and time that the incident occurred will not be added for privacy and safety.

It is rumored that Rain is banned on CivRealms, however no evidence was ever provided to support this claim.

After [[CivUniverse]] closed, owner [[Ian_X12]] banned Rain, after the server had already closed, for doxing on July 20th, 2021.<ref>[https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/415706745566920716/884248652598624256/unknown.png CivUniverse Ian_X12 banning RainOfPain125]</ref>

Rain is permanently banned from CivMC for "past activities", most likely because of the Owain incident.
=Beliefs=
Rain himself claims to be an Anarcho-Communist & Anarcho-Syndicalist, both of which are slightly different in their management of economic affairs.
Rain claims to be a Platformist & Synthesis Anarchist, despite many of the contradictions between ideologies. Platformism argues that Anarchists should be grouped together based on a common set of ideas and strategy, while Synthesis Anarchism argues all Anarchists should unite despite their ideological differences. He supports Platformism when possible, and Synthesis Anarchism as a backup to achieve economic, military, and political goals.
Line 135 ⟶ 140:
Rain also supports Queer Anarchism, aka Anarchism as a means of queer liberation and success. Himself and many of his comrade peers are LGBTQIA+.
Critics are quick to point out many of his actions differ from the principles of anarchism. Rain’s anarchist leanings have been questioned by many, including many leftists.
