I have two minds to answer this, because part of me is going 'WE GOT EM!!! WE GOT EM!!' While the other part of me is like 'oh god how do I tell them. Who’s going to tell them.' The easiest way I can explain: Tom, Ben, and Harry are not in a minecraft series together, and the lore that I have for them is not based in any actual series. HOWEVER. DON’T LET THE TRAGIC TRUTH MAKE YOU CLICK AWAY /silly so I can explain properly LMAO

Here’s a TLDR for anyone who likes these guys and is a lil interested in them!!

Most of the lore for these three is based on an amalgamation of inside jokes, non-minecraft character trends, and general yogs minecraft world lore!

Tom was an editor (now has a YouTube channel, AngoryTom) and did behind-the-scenes minecraft prep for the Yogscast for so long that he was never really interested in any actual "main channel" series besides [Dig Site - 10 episodes] with Simon, Lewis, and Ben, and [Skyblock - 2 episodes] with Ben! Although he’s also played several npcs throughout various main channel series since he was helping run the show lol. My take on his character is that he’s a former yoglabs employee due to [YOGLABS CLASSIFIED INFORMATION] and now lives his laziest life ever in an undisclosed remote location. He’s also the demigod of death but he’ll never tell

Ben started doing main series mc content a few years ago, but hasn’t done anything mc with Tom and Harry until recently (see below)! His character is a Shark Hybrid due to [YOGLABS CLASSIFIED INFORMATION] who now lives with Tom at the same undisclosed remote location.

Harry has been an insane speedrunning minecraft legend for ages, but was never in any main series content bc he’s actually a graphic designer for the yogs. But he was part of Iskall’s twitch vault hunter event back in November, and he’s now in the [Vault Hunter Series - Ongoing] with Ben and Duncan on YouTube! <3 so there’s plenty of mc content of Harry and Ben, but not so much Tom. c!Harry has lived remote for as long as he can remember, locked in Hardcore, until…?

But again, I base their backstories on a bunch of kinda loosely connected lore dots that are half based on jokes <3

Below the read more includes: links to clips, compilations, and very brief lore explanations (though you can check my other lore drawings in Tom’s tag (#Angory Tom), Ben’s tag (#bedgar), Harry’s tag (#brryhrry) or posts that have any of them, which should be under the (#the outcast trio) tag)!

BEN AND TOM

I’ve been in love with Ben and Tom as a duo forever, since the TTT (modded Trouble in Terrorist Town) days, where Ben’s player model was Left Shark, and Tom’s model was Emperor Palpatine (yes from Star Wars. I can’t stand them). But Ben and Tom have been yogs editors and Behind The Scenes guys forever, so it wasn’t until more recently that they became known personalities in the main yogscast circle (4-5 years is pretty recent in the 10+ years of yogs content timeline LMAO).

Through Warhammer streams and behind the scenes stuff, I kinda fell in love with their chemistry and idiocy, and they worked so well with the “main cast” that I just had to put them in the yogs minecraft universe, somewhere. Turns out, Tom had actually done a majority of the "behind the scenes" work for the Yoglabs series (he built a majority of the main building, did mod research and testing, was present during recordings to make sure things went well, stuff like that) so it only made sense to have his character be the Right Hand Man/ Behind The Scenes Assistant to Xephos (Lewis), the Morally Questionable Head of Yoglabs.

For anyone who’s unfamiliar with Yoglabs, it’s one of the yogs’ more famous series featuring Simon (Honeydew) and Lewis (Xephos) where they tested mods! more info can be found here!

c!Tom also ended up as a Lumian (the fanon alien space species for the yogs fandom, vaguely inspired by Star Trek Vulcans) because of a one-off joke where one of the Yogs artists drew him as a star trek commander, and I really didn’t need any further reason to make him a weird little guy LDKFJG

As far as the “demigod of death” thing goes, it felt right to give him a lore thing that vaguely coordinated with the whole “Emporer Palpatine” vibe, since that’s kinda the mc skin he’s used most recently. There’s another reason there that I don’t think I’ve properly explained, so I’ll leave the rest of that be for now ;]

Ben, on the other hand, plays a shark character in pretty much every video game he ever participates in, so shark hybrid was a pretty obvious way to go. And of course, since the duo had to be in the same place… involving Ben’s shark Hybrid-ness with yoglabs experimentation made good sense and good angst. What can I say :]

Here are the bigger lore posts I’ve made so far (in the order i posted them i believe!), explaining in a little more detail plus art to go with! :] [x] [x] [x]

HARRY

Harry is kinda known as the yogscast’s token memelord? But in the ironic way. He somehow makes it genuinely hilarious idk man. His humor is very dry, witty, and sarcastic, but he’s a sweetheart and kind of a god at minecraft. I’ve been arguing since day one that this man should be in mcc but we won’t go there

There aren't many solo harry compilations, so here's a link to a Harry and Ben compilation hehe

Regarding his minecraft lore, pretty much all of it is based around the idea that he’s a god at speedrunning and hardcore Minecraft. A common consensus in yogscast minecraft lore is that respawning is actually a Yoglabs-based mechanic tied to clones and clone making. I thought it would be interesting if Harry could be tied to a hardcore element in the yogs lore purely by having Somehow slid under yoglabs’ radar. And since he was never in any main channel (aka modded) series, i usually associate him with Vanilla mechanics, and since i also view mods as a Yoglabs-related lore element, it made sense! So basically— no clones, no respawns, no mods!

except that he’s in a main channel series now. So I’ll need to find a new lore reason around that DTBJDFGHK

And his design, well… this man’s skin is straight up Mr Mime, and there’s only so much I can do with that /silly But he’s a HUGE Pokémon fan! He’s played a couple of Disaster Nuzlockes with Lydia from the yogs a year or so ago, if that’s something you’re interested in! Was a huge comfort series for me for the longest time and rly good background noise, theyre soooo good at Pokémon I promise <3

Harry does more twitch stuff (hrry on twitch) than youtube stuff, so twitch is the best place to check him out if you're interested in his solo content!

Last thing I'll say about him is that he designed and ran an original minecraft minigame called "Capture the Wool" and he and Martyn are the hosts for a few episodes i think! i dont think there's any way to explain how entertaining it is to listen to him announce the chaos of yogs members trying to play competitive minecraft LOL

Um, so. TLDR…2, These guys are basically my ocs and now I get Actual minecraft content from them which is crazy. I love them as content creators and cool guys so so much though, so! Definitely recommend listening to these idiots (affectionate) babble and ramble to each other, mc or not <3

I miss all the old Yogscast Minecraft stuff immensely.

I'm not one of those people who just, stopped watching new stuff. I enjoy the Yogs as people so GTA, TTT, and random quest modpacks are fine for me.

I just don't get that same... light-rp vibe that got me hooked into the characters and stories they told.

I should go back and do a big rewatch of EVERYTHING and record it or something.

[yogurtyogitup]

I dunno if you watch yogs TTT but like. Lewis was abusing admin power to give everyone whatever role they asked for. And Duncan asked for mad scientist. It’s been like a decade and he has not changed

That's so awesome! Man's got a brand, what can I say?

Ok! So, if you like roleplay content, Blackrock is THE place to start. It wasn't finished (most yogs series aren't, you'll find), but the story is fantastic and set standards I still don't find in most modern stuff. Another great one is Flux Buddies (Link here to the full series playlist, minus FB4) but that is. WAY longer. worth it, and a lot less roleplay focused, but a great watch if you're up for the marathon.

More silly MC series I'd recommend is Moonquest, the recent Gartic series, and Kirbycraft (if you're into watching VODs. There are a few edited episodes on Briony's channel here, (I wonder who drew those thumbnails :D), but theyre a great watch anyway.

The TTT videos on the main channel are also excellent, but I'd just start with any new ones that come out.

For IRL vids, the Taskbox series and the Cult series are great, and the old Don't Starve series is a good watch. They revisited the DS video fairly recently too.

I'll also plug Best Bits Weekly, which is exactly what it says on the tin. Clips from vids and streams from that week across the network.

I'll let people add more in the replies because otherwise this could go on forever (and I really don't watch like. most of the network. because I do not have time to, but they're all really good!!)

art so good i started watching yogscast

WAAH!! Highest compliment ever thank you so mucu

that is dangerous territory though, if you want some series recs I'm happy to provide!

[roguehawke]

Just a quick sketch of some yogscast ttt as I’ve started watching them again

[shepscapades]

yogscast is still going??? god i havent interacted with it since i was like 11

Haha yep!! Most of yogscast content creators are now streamers and don’t really do minecraft content as much anymore, but Duncan always seems to have a mc series going! A lot of behind the scenes editors and graphic designers and stuff have started becoming more involved in content though, so there’s still a lot of really fun personalities and content to watch :) (and the main channel still plays Gmod TTT. Love that for them)

Harry, who’s a graphic designer for the Yogs, started doing Minecraft speed runs a few years (?) ago and has gotten crazy good at the game, so he’s finally getting involved in projects like vault hunters with other big mcyt content creators, which makes me really happy! >w< I’m still holding out for Harry MCC. real and true mans would kill in mcc

Most of the old tumblr yogs fandom still sticks to the old cast of yogs Minecraft characters (They’re basically our adopted ocs now, let’s be honest), but quite a lot of folks still keep up with content I believe!

[yousaytomato]

sorry to yogs post in 2022 but Lewis and Sips playing Plate Up on Team DD is some of the most enjoyable content I've seen all year

[phanta-friends]

I love bon with all my heart

[melongraph56]

Here’s a Lewis I forgot to post

Expect to see a bunch of art from 2020 that I didn’t post because I was lazy haha
