SparksXV roles/actions on the Momentum SMP

Each person on the Momentum SMP has had many roles over the seasons and have definitely had quite a few changes to their archetypes and appearances, which is most evident in SparksXV, the owner/leader of the server.

Season 1: In season 1 SparksXV's main role was building structures and making the server a nice place to be. He and Litestrike worked on several large structures which became their megabases, and he also made an iron shop and a mob farm, which provided materials for the server to use to move forward and progress as much as it could. Throughout this season, Sparks would take on multiple large challenges such as building his megabase, trying to get the ender dragon egg, and attempting to defeat a Warden with bees (which unfortunately was unsuccessful, however it led to an attempt in season 2 to fight another boss with bees). Sparks acted as the main source of content and information on this season alongside Litestrike, however without any major conflict Sparks mainly just acted as a resource collector and builder for the many buildings in the central area of the season. SparksXV didn't have an official skin change during the first half of season 1, however in his thumbnail for How I became a Saint on this SMP a separate skin variation can be seen which resembles a color swapped variant of his normal skin. In the second half of season 1 a very slight change is made to his skin, making the blue on his sleeves a slight amount lighter, the hexidecimal value being #0098ff whereas the previous color was #0010e0. No other skin changes were made for SparksXV in season 1

Season 2: SparksXV's role in season 2 had a slight shift from season 1. Although still collecting a majority of the resources, mainly in the form of his gold farm that he created, he also had a much more chaotic role throughout the season, taking a hiatus from the server for a few months during the middle of the season, but then releasing a video about everything he had worked on, which had included becoming the "mayor" of the server by essentially tricking the players to vote for his pig named Technoblade after the Minecraft Youtuber, and along with this he also had a pivotal role in shaping the economy throughout the season, making season 2 one of the most industrious seasons of Momentum. As mentioned earlier, he started a plan to defeat 2 withers with 10000 bees in his video I Killed The Wither With 10,000 Bees In Survival Minecraft (Part 1), and throughout this time he acted as a slight antagonist to the other server members, as this project caused the server to lag for weeks on end. This made the players turn against Sparks, forcing him to finish his project as quickly as possible, and after it was complete he was forced to transform Momentum for 100 minecraft days in order to make amends for the server lag that was caused throughout his project. Sparks and Litestrike had a war known as the "tree war" where Sparks was trying to plant trees as part of making the server a better place, whereas Litestrike destroyed trees to go against Sparks, however Sparks built a tree farm which caused Litestrike to not be able to destroy the trees fast enough before Sparks was able to replace the destroyed areas, causing Sparks and Litestrike to agree to end the tree war. During this time SparksXV also made a "megabase" which was just a giant wool platform in a diamond shape in the sky, with a small pyramid on the top of it, and after Dutch0 reviewed SparksXV's work he let him off the hook. SparksXV during this time was planning a large event, in which he would end season 2 by summoning the witherstorm, and by using a command block which he took from Dutch0 he had everything ready for the event. Throughout the event Sparks acted as a leader, getting all the players ready for the final showdown inside the witherstorm's head, however he also had plans to kill a new member on the server named Spwiggle sometime during the event, as he needed to get rid of him to get the server to season 3 (more likely just a fun lore thing to get moved from season 2 to season 3 in a way that the server members would be able to have fun with) and after destroying the witherstorm and killing the players he had accomplished his goal to get the server to season 3. Throughout season 2 SparksXV didn't have a skin change, and his role stayed mostly the same throughout the season apart from the finale with the witherstorm, in which he turned from a leader and someone who was gathering resources to allow the server members to create as much as possible to a more chaotic character that wasn't necessarily against the players, but wasn't trying to help them either (because in the end everyone was going to season 3 anyways, so perhaps he was just wanting to have a bit of fun)

Season 3: SparksXV's role in season 3 was by far the most interesting, as at the start of the server he was much more chaotic, killing Spwiggle and Cucumbersyum in the woodland mansion near season 3's spawn. Overall he had significantly focused more energy into pvp along with conflict, which resulted in a lot more content throughout season 3 compared to previous seasons. SparksXV owned a mooshroom island in season 3, however he didn't do anything with that island, instead building his base alongside Dutch0 on Dutch's jungle island. The season had a dragon fight that would actually have another dragon egg, which would allow Sparks to get 2 dragon eggs if he played his cards right, which would only be difficult if the rest of the server members teamed up against him, however despite this actually happening, Litestrike had to leave halfway through the dragon fight, leaving Spwiggle and another member named Poiesis4X74 (found in Sparks video How I Started A WAR On A 3 Year Old Peaceful SMP at timestamp 7:38) to fight for the dragon egg separately. Sparks and Dutch using coordinated efforts took down the dragon to receive the dragon egg before Spwiggle or Poiesis4X74, and soon after Sparks had a duel with the server admin Badgen, in which he accidentally obtained a barrier block, however Spwiggle, wanting an illegal item for the fun of it, attacked Sparks and stole the barrier block. Sparks wasn't happy about that, causing Spwiggle to return the barrier block to Sparks, but after receiving an elytra as a gift from Spwiggle, Sparks decided to set up a puzzle for Spwiggle to earn the barrier back, which ended up being a trap that resulted in both SparksXV and Spwiggle's deaths, along with the designer of the trap Kilomegaminx, and after giving away the barrier block Sparks didn't have too many more major roles until one day Litestrike and Cucumbersyum built a giant cobblestone tower at spawn, which caused Sparks to promptly destroy their build. This is where SparksXV started taking a role more towards a vigilante/villain as although Litestrike and Cucumbersyum were in the wrong, his retaliation started a war against their team, which got several players involved, and after a long dispute they had their first battle, which was won mostly by SparksXV's pvp skills, along with the fact that Spwiggle had created two custom foods called the Aether Carrot and the Crimson Carrot (with SparksXV stating that the Aether Carrot is the "attack carrot", which is backed up by him receiving strength I, speed I, absorption III, along with the random addition of conduit power, and presumably the Crimson Carrot acted more like an inverse of the Aether carrot, defending instead of attacking) however after the battle Spwiggle decided to turn on everyone, which caused Sparks to build a bed trap to trap Spwiggle and keep him from going on a rampage. He also teamed up with Litestrike and Cucumbersyum to achieve this, however after Spwiggle escaped Sparks began hunting for him since Dutch0 had disappeared. This led SparksXV to season 2, where he went on a slight scavenger hunt to find Spwiggle, and after finding him, Sparks killed Spwiggle which led to the first skin change of season 3 for Sparks, in which one of his eyes switched from light blue to red, and after returning to season 3 and building a pyramid called the Badgen pyramid, SparksXV's skin changed to have both eyes red along with his sleeve color changing from the lighter blue to a red color, and after receiving a sword that can ban people called the Omniprism, Sparks banned Spwiggle off the server. This marked the start of Sparks villain arc, where he banned several players off the server and slowly became more and more chaotic with his actions. Sparks banned Sugarplate, CheezyMango, Litestrike and Cucumbersyum off the server while drowning in the power that the sword provided, but after a meeting with Spwiggle in an alternate dimension (supposedly where banned players go on Momentum) SparksXV began to be less and less chaotic with his actions, slowly choosing to fight against the server admin Badgen who was the one who gave him the Omniprism in the first place (though supposedly Spwiggle was the one who actually designed the Omniprism, not sure exactly how that works but it might just be a subtle nod to Spwiggle being the developer that made the Omniprism possible through a datapack or something like that?) and after having a fight with MemeLord, Sparks goes to season 1 where Jyxo and MemeLord are, which after getting sent to an alternate dimension they meet up with Spwiggle (which means they are in the realm where players go when they get banned on the Momentum SMP? Tiny bit confusing because they clearly aren't banned imo) which leads to them preparing to fight Badgen in the main season 3, who can't get to where they are for some reason (lore or something). After preparing and having Sparks be more similar to his Season 1 and season 2 self, SparksXV starts the fight with Badgen as soon as he enters the dimension, and after not being able to do much of anything against Badgen in the dimension, SparksXV leads the players back to season 1, where they get teleported to season 3 and fight Badgen inside the Badgen pyramid, where Sparks leads the players like he did in season 1, and after the battle shifts to a train, SparksXV deals the final blow with the Omniprism, which gives him the wither effect, explained as Sparks needing to sacrifice most of his soul to defeat Badgen (equivalent to getting banned apparently, the lore isn't extremely clear though) and Sparks goes into spectator mode and flies off while the rest of the Members are put in the alternate dimension area. Apart from the skin changes when SparksXV kills Spwiggle and when SparksXV bans Spwiggle, there are no other skin changes throughout season 3 for SparksXV

This basically concludes every main thing that Sparks has done on the server, though there are a few things that aren't mentioned such as Sparks role in Spwiggle's magic show or the livestreams that Sparks did, but that is a story for another post, for now this should suffice for the information about SparksXV and his role on the Momentum SMP
