BetaPlain
BetaPlain is the mayor of Newburn, Alaska.
History
Before BetaPlain played on the server, he had played SimCity 2016 and Cities: Skylines. He got bored with the two and wanted an alternative.
BetaPlain isn't really a PVP person, so he went on minecraftservers.org and found EarthMC. He entered in the IP into Minecraft and went in.
Spawn and Travel to Alaska
Spawn
On June 28th, 2019 BetaPlain spawned in the real-life location of Mongolia. He looked on earthmc.net/map and found a mostly uninhabited bay in Alaska. He asked how to teleport, but nobody said how.
He was tired when he joined and went all the way to Spain, just to get to Alaska. (He could have gone through China.)
He wondered what would happen if you died, and where you would respawn. He drowned himself in the Atlantic Ocean, and luckily for him, he spawned near Chicago. He went through Cascadia and was amazed that they even had a highway system.
New Town
When BetaPlain was going through Chicago, he stole some resources from a chest. He also noticed that some towns had these basic mine entrances and decided to make one of those in Newburn.
BetaPlain started a long staircase all the way down to Y12 and found a handful of materials.
He knew about voting, so each day he would vote and put the gold in a chest hidden under the mineshaft.
Raided
Eventually, karma had come to BetaPlain and a player sneaked up on him and killed him. The player also broke the chests because he couldn't find anything useful. Luckily, the gold was still safe underground. Nevertheless, BetaPlain lost some glass and other important items from his chests.
The Town Starts
Eventually, BetaPlain had enough gold to start a town. He named it Newburn and started it where he thought he would put his Town Hall.
BetaPlain asked Yukon if he could join and they never responded, so he looked in the official EarthMC Discord Server and did not find them.
Next, he asked in global chat to join Alaska. (Incarnation__ was not online) He then went to the EarthMC Discord Server Again in search of the Alaskan Discord Server. He didn't find it, so he asked in global chat again. Sure enough, Incarnation__ had just got online and /msg him to ask if he wanted to join Alaska. BetaPlain accepted, and Incar explained the Cascadian Republic.

Irre1evancy
Irre1evancy was an important figure in the town's start, but Irrev /msg BetaPlain and claimed "I'm going on holiday, be back soon" and never came back. It is still unknown what happened to him.
