Template:About Template:CharacterTemplate:Quote SiIvaGunner, formerly GiIvaSunner, is a central character in SiIvaGunner lore. He ran his self-named channel during Season 1.

Profile

SiIvaGunner's appearance is based on GilvaSunner's avatar, a datamoshed edit of an image of a bust of Antinous.[note 1] Starting with GilvaSunner's Highest Quality Video Game Rips: Volume 3 & Knigra's cover art, his crotch is usually covered by the Fred Flintstone star from the 7 GRAND DAD title screen whenever his full body is shown.

In videos where he is given a speaking role, he is voiced by the text-to-speech voice "Wiseguy" from Voice Forge. This was established in the video "A Big Announcement" (although the actual first appearance of the Wiseguy voice is "Title - Ōkami", but it's unknown whether the character had been conceptualized prior to "A Big Announcement").

Following the GiIvaSunner Termination, an eyepatch and horn similar to those of Venom Snake from Template:Category were added to the avatar. Following the SiIvaGunner Termination, the character's appearance became more damaged, with his horn exaggerated and scars added on his left eye, nose, and lower lip, further referencing Venom Snake.

Behavior as channel host

Most of SiIvaGunner's character is defined by the kayfabe from the channel impersonating GilvaSunner. On the GiIvaSunner channel and in the early days of the SiIvaGunner channel, he would occasionally reply to comments, usually repeating the phrase "I only upload high quality video game rips." to people who pointed out that the videos didn't actually contain unedited video game music, or if they insinuated that a rip wasn't "high quality" for a different reason, such as it containing a disliked meme.

At the end of channel events, he would comment "Regular uploads will resume in [amount of time]." This was sometimes parodied as well, with the amount of time being the usual one hour. When he released an album, he would usually complain in the descriptions of Template:Category that the titles and artist names of his rips don't match those of the tracks. This was eventually explained to be caused by Wood Man.

The catchphrase on most rips he uploaded was "Please read the channel description.", with some variations during certain channel events.

History

Template:See also On October 1, 2017, the origins of SiIvaGunner were explained in the first Template:Category file, "The Creation of GiIvaSunner [FILE-01]". The video reveals that GiIvaSunner was carved from a meteor that crash-landed outside of Tokyo Station in Marunouchi, Japan, after the meteor was bought by an unknown man for ¥562,315,000 (approximately US$5,000,000 in 2017). GiIva then came to life, killed his creator, and hijacked his computer to create the GiIvaSunner channel.

GiIvaSunner Termination

Main article: GiIvaSunner Termination

Following from the first file, "Termination [FILE-02]" details GiIvaSunner's transformation into SiIvaGunner.

After uploading rips for almost three months, the GiIvaSunner channel received a copyright strike on April 5, 2016. In order to find the perpetrator of this act, GiIva apprehended seven suspects aboard a plane for interrogation, as seen in "A Big Announcement". One of the suspects was the high-ranking crime lord Dinkleberg, who revealed himself to be Angry Joe and the one who filed the strike out of jealousy. Joe then assaulted GiIva and filed another strike, terminating the channel and causing GiIva to become lifeless and fall out of the plane.

On April 12, the now-lifeless GiIva was fished out of a harbor in the Netherlands and sold in an auction to Chad Warden for $599, who then created the SiIvaGunner channel and allied with GiIvaSunner, now known as SiIvaGunner, buying him a house, a new computer, and an eyepatch, thus letting him continue making rips.

SilvaGunner: Rebooted

Main article: SilvaGunner: Rebooted

On June 17, 2016, the SiIvaGunner channel rebooted due to a constant dislike-bombing of rips featuring "Snow halation", starting the SilvaGunner: Rebooted story arc. SiIvaGunner made appearances in the arc's lore videos, but his role was essentially passive as he was unaware of his own rebooted status. His catchphrase was changed to "Read the channel description, please." and he would rarely comment with "I upload high quality video game rips only."

Immediately after the video "A Grand New Era ~Ending~ - SilvaGunner: Rebooted" was uploaded, in which the pre-reboot and reboot universes were merged, the channel's avatar was changed to an uncorrupted and undamaged version of SiIvaGunner, showing the original Antinous bust. This change was reverted after the release of "Melody of the Heart ~True Ending~".

Season 1 Finale

On September 26, 2016, SiIvaGunner started releasing albums at an alarming rate due to becoming exhausted from constantly uploading rips for nearly seven months. He then uploaded his final rip, "Title Theme & Ending - 7 GRAND DAD", on October 29. At the end of said rip, he declares it to be his "highest quality video game rip" and decides to take a long rest, leaving his computer and going to bed.

This was a set-up for The SilvaGunner Spooktacular Halloween Horror Special, in which SiIvaGunner was still the "host" of the channel, but all of the rips were actually uploaded by Wood Man. During this event, the catchphrase was replaced with varying amounts of the letter Z to show that SiIvaGunner was asleep.

Post-Season 1

Ditto, after the release of "One Last Chance".

After going to sleep, SiIvaGunner had little role in the channel's lore for a long time, remaining only as a subject of discussion from other characters, most of which was in Haltmann's Archives. For Season 2, his role as main channel host was initially replaced by The Voice Inside Your Head, then later by President Haltmann until the advent of the SiIva A.I. with Season 3.

"The SiIva AI [FILE-17] - Haltmann's Archives" re-established SiIvaGunner's role in the lore. As part of the "Quality of Control" network made to improve the A.I.'s output, SiIvaGunner was introduced into a controlled dream environment called Illucidity, where he continued creating rips to expand the A.I.'s dataset and exponentially improve the quality of its rips, inadvertently looping back and also exponentially improving his own output. After the A.I. shut down at the end of Season 6, the channel fell back to only uploading rips created by the original SiIvaGunner inside Illucidity in Season 7.

In The SilvaGunner Christmas Comeback Crisis episode "One Last Chance", SiIvaGunner finally awakens, having been stirred awake after Grand Dad is severely injured by an energy blast from The Voice.

Trivia

  • Given that SiIvaGunner is based on Antinous, a symbol of male homosexuality in Western culture, he is possibly gay himself (or bisexual, if "Love Theme - Mass Effect" is regarded as "canonical").

The source of the datamoshed edit is currently unknown, the oldest known copy being from a now-deleted Tumblr post on July 27, 2014.
