The Seer

The Seer is a Second Session Carlisle Position who holds the Vessel of Joshifer, a duct-taped stick with a plastic spoon (Joshifer) on the end, connected by a duct tape chain.

History

The Vessel was created on Love Tape Day at CAR.24.2 by the first Seer, Anya Ausiello, who found a "nice stick" on their way to class and did what had to be done, given the holiday. They then spent their class time creating a chain to attach to the stick, and, for the finishing touch, stole a plastic spoon and attached it to the chain. The Vessel went unnamed for some time, though referred to as "CTYer Bait" by some, until that day's activities, when a RA (somehow) misread a name as Joshifer. The spoon adapted this fate-given moniker and thus, Joshifer was born.

The Vessel accumulated a variety of duct tape over the course of the day, most of which was used as restraints for the first Seer and then repurposed after the fun was put to an end (RA Gaynor: "and what are you going to do if there's a fire?"). Some chains were tragically severed as some individuals got a little bit too excited attempting to grab Joshifer, notably one of the first Seer's RAs, but was quickly patched with, shockingly, duct tape. Joshifer himself was broken too, but for unknown reasons. It boasts some nice floral tape due to this.

The Seer was created as a position for the purpose of "being silly" (the first Seer was very tired at Passionfruit and could not think of anything better) and passed down to an appropriate "silly guy". The origin of the Seer's name comes from ChatGPT, funnily enough, which is somewhat fitting for a so-called "silly" position.

Since the end of the session, a group of heretics have emerged, claiming that Joshifer is a false deity and its basis in being “a creature of whimsy” is not sufficient to justify worshiping a spoon.

Joshifer is also involved in a romantic relationship with all IKEA sharks.

In 25.2, Joshifer was seldom seen, but his appearance on one of the last days of session led to him being broken by the heretics. This was especially disrespectful, for the vessel holding his spirit was one of the holy spoons of the Blammo police.

In 26.2, the holder of joshifer chosen in 25.2 was not able to attend or mail joshifer to the site in time, much to the chagrin of the true whimsical worshippers of joshifer, who were basically outnumbered 10 to one by heretics. The title of seer was passed down via text message to Walter Wu, who continued to spread the word of joshifer throughout the site. By the end of the session, joshifer had gained more followers, of whom the most passionate was chosen to inherit our god of whimsy.
