Smajor1995's 3rd Life: Episode 1

I've NEVER done a series like THIS before! is Smajor1995's first episode of 3rd Life. It was uploaded on April 20, 2021.

Plot
The episode begins with an out of context clip from later in the video, followed by a short introuction and segue into Grian's prepared explanation video. He starts on his own, spending a few minutes in video exploring and doing early game work before stumbling onto SolidarityGaming.

The two of them cave together, and after a while encounter RenDog in the same cave system. He has his mic muted, so it takes a while for them to get his attention but once they do he 'trades' them a rabbits foot for 5 iron. Both Scott and Jimmy seemed amicable to giving Ren the supplies he wanted without a trade. After the trade, Scott and Jimmy leave Ren to further explore the cave.

The two of them find a ravine, and someone's blocked off mineshaft leading to it. When they ascend they find themselves in a flower forest, and see GoodTimesWithScar in the distance. They chase after him, and also find TangoTek and EthosLab. Scar runs away again out of fear of monsters, and Scott and Jimmy go to a base they see in the distance. It turns out, Scar is there again, along with ZombieCleo, ImpulseSV, and BdoubleO100. Tango and Etho also arrive slightly later.

Bdubs plays a music disc, and the group are "vibing" to the music until a horde of phantoms attacks the players. The group takes shelter in the nearby base, chatting, expanding it to fit the 8 players present, and jokingly dubbing it the refugee camp. Eventually, Bdubs leads a charge into battle against the phantoms and the threat is dealt with.

As the group are saying their goodbyes, Cleo stands on a sapling at the same time as it grows, and almost dies to suffocation damage. After Cleo is saved, and a few more goodbyes, Scott and Jimmy go back to the area of the flower forest they emerged in earlier. They decide to build their bases in the area.

Scott sends Jimmy out to retrieve the things from their caving trip, and later again some seeds for a farm while he prepares the area for living. While Jimmy is out for seeds, SmallishBeans and InTheLittleWoods briefly pass through the area. Martyn goes looking for Jimmy so he can try scaring him using a creeper sound effect he can play through his mic, while Joel leaves in search of a place to call home. Eventually Martyn circles back around after being unable to find Solidarity, who shows up just after his name is mentioned.

Martyn successfully pranks Jimmy, after which he leaves. Scott and Jimmy then plan out the set up of their area, and Scott builds a cut hobbit hole into the side of a tall hill. As Scott is showing Jimmy his new house, Martyn returns to advertise Renchanting, RenDog's enchanting business. He also admits that he feels partially responsible for GoodTimesWithScar's death, because he played his creeper noise shoorting before Grian lead a real creeper over, killing Scar. After chatting for a few more minutes, Martyn leaves again.

Scott decides to go exploring for a bit, passing by the village, and eventually making his way towards Renchanting. He walks in during tense negotiations, and hears the village people threaten Ren's business. A bargain is made, and the Village people leave, meaning the only people left at Renchanting are Ren himself, Martyn, and Scott. He makes a deal to send Jimmy with some sugarcane later and enchants his gear.

Shortly after, Jimmy shows up and Scott reprimands him, before explaining the situation, and heading back to their bases. He spends some time decorating his area, before deciding to also decorate the front of Jimmy's house because he thought it was ugly. When he comes back, Jimmy is grateful for the help on his build, and tells Smajor what happened while they were separated. He explains that he had to place signs as part of his payment for enchanting because the sugarcane wasn't enough, and that he's worried Martyn is mad at him.

Martyn appears but doesn't bother Solidarity too much about the signs, and after some conversation and seeing the death message of Skizzleman in the chat, Scott does a quick outro and the episode ends.

Description
Welcome to a brand new Minecraft series on my channel, 3rd Life! The goal of the series is fairly simple, don't die! Or at least be the last one to do so! Each player starts the series with 3 lives! You play the series pretty normally for your first two, but after you're on your third life, that's when everything changes... On your 3rd life your goal is to hunt down and kill the other players! We also are using a proximity voice chat mod, so it leads to a lot of random and funny interactions with people on the server!
