• Constantly carrying a sword: Never parts with his legendary sword.

• Building and Creating: In the past, John was an incredibly creative and passionate Robloxia builder who inspired those around him.
What does John do between rounds?
When the round ends and the survivors return to the safety of the Lobby, John Shedletsky acts as an NPC in the Lobby and does the following:
• Keeps the team's morale up: John takes on the role of the team's "goofball." He understands how hopeless the survivors' situation is, so he deliberately plays the fool so the other guys can relax and smile a little between bloody matches.
• Studying Investigations and Reports: In-game footage shows John working closely with survivor Jane Doe. During breaks, he can be found studying documents, evidence, and the investigation board in an attempt to understand how the Spectre dimension works.
• Communicating with old friends: The lobby is the only place where John can calmly talk with Bilderman and Dusekkar, remember the old times in Robloxia and once again promise each other to stand to the end and protect newcomers.
• Lonely longs for his wife: His personal documents contain a photograph of his wife, BrightEyes. John is deeply distressed by the separation from her, as she was the only one who did not turn away from him during his youthful egotism.
• Hides a terrible secret: Between rounds, John is constantly on edge. He's terrified that the other Survivors will discover the truth—that the terrifying 1x1x1x1 Killer is a creation of his own subconscious. Therefore, in the Lobby, he tries to act as friendly as possible so that no one will suspect anything and lose trust in him.

Prehistory (The Golden Age and the Fall of Telamon)
At the very beginning of Robloxia's development, John Shedletsky was an incredibly talented, passionate, and creative builder. His skill and passion were so great that the administrators hired him as Creative Director. It was John who designed and built the legendary Sword Fights on the Heights (SFOTH) arena. Under the pseudonym Telamon, he regularly competed in the arena and earned a reputation as an unrivaled sword master.
During this period, John's life seemed perfect:
• His game flourished and his alter ego Telamon was adored in the community.
• He was close friends with his colleagues Builderman and Dusekkar.
• He met a beautiful girl, BrightEyes, whom he soon married.
The turning point: John was too young, stupid, and arrogant. Fame went to his head, and he abandoned his administrative duties in favor of endless training and the pursuit of recognition. His ego grew with each passing day.
After Robloxia survived an attack by an unknown enemy, John proposed creating a series of super-powerful swords as a countermeasure. However, his recklessness and hubris reached their peak when he stumbled upon the dark artifact Necrobloxicon. Under the influence of the artifact and his own inflated ego, something terrible happened: John's hatred, selfishness, and lust for power physically separated from him, giving birth to a terrifying monster—1x1x1x1.
John found himself at the very bottom of his moral decline. Realizing what he had done, he sincerely repented. His loyal friend, Dusekhar, supported him during this dark period. Together, they forged the legendary sword Illumina as a symbol of their vow to always evolve, grow beyond themselves, and be the best versions of themselves.
How did he get to Forsaken?
After an indeterminate amount of time, the empowered 1x1x1x1 monster returned, and John was forced to confront his ultimate nightmare at the height of their powers. The outcome of this final battle on their homeworld remained unknown. However, regardless of who prevailed, both were abducted by a mysterious entity—the Spectre.
The Spectre dragged John, his friends, and his own embodiment of hatred into his dark dimension—the realm of Forsaken. Here, they were condemned to an endless, cyclical nightmare of gladiatorial violence, where the survivors were forced to flee round after round from the brutal Slayers.
