Summary

Earth is a strange man hailing, like many other characters, from outside the two main Epic universes. He was originally a character from the old RPG Tyler was in during the early 2000s, and is probably the only character to actually carry over from it. (Although some, such as Weapon or Sye, were remakes of characters from that game) Shortly after that RPG ended in late 2003 AD (2313 AE), Earth got bored and did what probably only Earth would be stupid enough to do, entering 314 different universes at the same time. This split him into 314 Earths, and is Tyler's excuse for any alternate universe Earths having been seen prior to New Epic.


Past Life

Prior to his time in New Epic, Earth and his four siblings were members of an ancient group watching over the multiverse. They did this for a very long time, with Earth himself often watching over the universe designated East 1, which was very similiar to the real world. Earth rarely needed to do much in this world, but did occasionally have to retrieve advanced artifacts which had found their way into the possession of this world's residents, such as a device that could create powerful bursts of heat which he had to retrieve from Altan Khan in 1549 AD (1859 AE).

East 1 only served to enhance Earth's odd nature, with him obtaining a fixation on tomatoes following their recovery from South America by the Spanish in the 16th Century AD. The culture of the late 20th Century AD influenced him even further, with him growing a love for sombreros and Hawaiian shirts in this time which has persisted to this day.

In 2293 AE (1983 AD), Earth and his siblings were vacationing in East 1's New York City and ended up having to deal with the burst heat device once more, with it eventually being sent to Ja'Raji, a member of their group and old friend of theirs living in New Epic.

In 2313 AE (2003 AD), events with their group came to a head as they faced an old enemy they'd been long preparing for, defeating him at the cost of their home universe. This resulted in the return of the aging process for the group, and Earth now having nothing to ease his boredom. As such, he went off in 314 different universes in February of 2314 AE, including Old Epic, New Epic, and SAJ Epic.

In New Epic, Earth began to look for his old friend Ja'Raji, but encountered a man by the name of Parus, who had killed Ja'Raji a few years prior and had taken the burst heat device. He also had a Laquiri, which Earth had remembered from a while back. Earth retrieved the burst heat device once more, eventually leading to its recovery by Granmir the Firebringer, who also took the Laquir from Parus.


Universes Collide

During the summer of 2319 AE, the Earths of Old Epic, SAJ Epic, and possibly New Epic (debatable due to the confusion surrounding New Epic Kasch's actions) went on similiar quests for Manly Steak as a result of a promise made at a certain tournament. This soon attracted the attention of Edjejre. Edjejre, seeking to take control of the universe by means of entering the real world, copied Earth's fourth wall breaking abilities and Manly Steak powers, and used them back on Earth himself to enter the closest universe to his own. This resulted in a tear in the universe opening near Losenna in Banivia.

Due to the upcoming New Epic reset and changeover in a few hours, the tears in the Old Epic and New Epic universes were connected to each other, resulting in Old Epic Earth being trapped in New Epic. The tear in SAJ Epic, however, was connected to Seth's bedroom in the SAJ Real Universe due to the reset being pushed back, trapping the SAJ Earth in Sethington.

A day or two later, SAJ Earth found another tear in the universe near Seth's house, which had been made by Weapon months before. Drago and Nick Cobalt entered it and followed Earth around in the SAJ Real universe. They soon met up with the Manly Trio, joining up with their group to go after Edjejre. Earth explained how everything that had happened was essentially Kasch's fault, and they went and beat him up.

Following Edjejre's defeat, Earth stowed away in the Hopestar Alpha as the trio went off to defeat the other Edjejres who proved a threat. The last universe they ended up at was the New Epic universe, where the Old and New Epic Edjejres were teaming up. After the Edjejres were defeated, the Old, New, and SAJ Epic Earths merged back into one Earth, and went on a two year long adventure to merge with the remaining 311 Earths.

The Earths were all done in December of 2321, but when he tried to return to the New Epic Universe (the place he decided to hang around at), he found that it had been blocked off. To get past this, he went to a universe with time machines readily available, and went back to 10 October 2319, the day he left New Epic, and entered there. The universe was all "no cheating jerk", and froze him in time until he reached the morning of 21 December 2321, where he reappeared.


New Epic Adventures

With nothing big left to do, Earth's mostly returned to just goofing around as usual. He decided to take up announcing at tournaments when possible, serving as a guest announcer at the Ivory Arch Tournament, Black Rock Tournament of 2322, and Tournament of the 116th Olympiad, all alongside Nick Cobalt.

In December of 2322, his old friend Marcus Mull asked him about what had happened to Edjejre. Earth gathered the people who were present at the battle of the two Edjejres so the story could be retold, and Mull explained someone had sent him the New Epic Book of Quests.

Earth also won a giant robot from a box of DOUBLE OS around this time, but his use of it didn't last long. More importantly, he was drawn to St. Tomato Monastery, where its monks declared him to be the current Master of the Art of Tomato Fu, the head of the Order of the Tomato. Earth used this position to help out Iota Vandir in his struggle against Nyogotha.

In June of 2323, an Aetherstorm blocked off access to the planet Earth, where Earth's home was. As such, Earth decided to take up semi-permanent residence in St. Tomato Monastery. During this time, he retrieved sunglasses from Nick Cobalt and was then approached by Ganchi Hiaba and Cail Milons regarding the burst heat device and the Laquiri. Earth gave some information about them, but the monks removed Ganchi and Cail from the monastery before he could go into more detail.
