![Limited Life - Out of Context bc of course [FINALE SPOILERS]](https://64.media.tumblr.com/bb96ae7d0dc2491013ee2a3fa57aa131/56d5c6e9ed58f5b9-86/s540x810/ba9717fca6f91b867a2ddf43826354b576a04e32.jpg)
I really love this out of context LiL video! Stalary did such a great job!
I was thinking about this while on a drive since I was already thinking about red Scar in limited life. Since I know in the cannon of Hermitcraft, Scar has cannibalized some of his fellow hermits in a past season and a few times has mentions eating friends in other season and 3rd life I believe.
So what if blood thirsty Scar while chasing someone talks about how hungry he is and that he needs to feast.
I’m going to honest the scene that went down in my head was Red Scar visiting Martyn who is yellow just having a little chat while Martyn is nervous and is carefully moving around his and Scotts area. Until Martyn finally lets his guard down thinking the other isn’t going to do anything which leads to Scar talking about hungry and even asking Martyn if he has ever been so hunger for something that only that thing can quench their hunger. Then Martyn answers the question as he moves to use the crafting table and he then asks Scar what he is hungry for and there is a bit of silence until right behind Martyn, Scar says “You” With a big sharp teeth grin and then takes a chunk out Martyn's neck. And it goes black.
And that all I was thinking about during the drive.
I really want Scar and Martyn to team up again in MCC or in the life series I love their friendship.
I loved the watcher lore that Martyn did during last life and there could be a possibility that he’ll do it during Double life, but image if he didn’t do watcher lore, but did something with Scar.
Like image Martyn in the void waiting for the Watchers to talk to him or something, but instead of them its Scar who is talking to him. And of course Martyn would be confused on why Scar was the talking to him and I feel like Martyn would ask questions like “Are you a watcher?” “If not then what are you?” And Scar could either give him answers or answers beating around the bush, but are not technically lies, Scar could possibility mess around with Martyn until the other get upset since Martyn doesn’t know what's going on and all he wants is answers. And I also kinda want Landscaping your mind apart of it, like maybe towards the end. Like maybe Scar says something along the lines of “Now listen little listener, I have a story to share, Landscaping Your Mind Chapter Four.” And he’ll continue the chapter and image it slowly fades as Martyn starts to fall unconscious but not without trying to take in all of Chapter Four because maybe there is something more to that book. Now maybe the Landscaping your mind is a little scratch and I know this is not going to happen, but its just an interesting idea I thought about last night.
So I've been rewatching Third Life from Martyn's perspective and not even in the first session Martyn essentially institutes the beginning of essentially everything major in all seasons of the Life Series from the instigator of curses and creator of storylines, Martyn has been the intiator for all of them. He has never been more essential to the history of the Life Series lore wise then his involvement in Third Life.
Not even in the first five minutes of the Life Series, Martyn already foreshadows the Canary Curse that haunted Jimmy until Secret Life. at 2:58 of his Third Life: The Movie, Martyn gives BigB the role of his canary with BigB stating "I'm with you in spirit" moments prior. Elluding to Jimmy's endeavour to stay and comfort those subsequent fallen after his final demise and Grian's task and Secret Life that brought him back in the astral realm.
Besides the alluding to the Canary Curse, Martyn's ability to replicate and emulate sounds from the natural enviornments and mobs as a Listener allowed him to travel across the boundaries of the world meeting and scaring people from his imitation of creeper sizziling. Which lead him to meet Ren and establishing Renchantyn as their official spokesperson. Proclaiming enchanting for those who needed in the village where majority of the participants were gathering. Spoking them with his creeper noises as the night drew nearer. Yet after all this and their "guards were down" Grian did a little prank that would change the course of the series. Resulting in Scar's demise of the whole season and kickstarting Desertduo and the fued between Dogwarts and the Desert Alliance.
To quote Mumbo, "Cross-season beef" is an understatement to the relationship between Scar and Grian all because of Martyn and his Listener superstitions and powers.

So one of the most lore-indepth wildcards of Wild Life would be the superpowers that relates past seasons of the Life Series and acknowledges other series (eg. Hermitcraft and Evo) and their personal lore to attribute to each participant's power.
Starting alphabetically,
Bdubs power is essentially all related to time and his ability to manipulate the day cycle expentially. With the clock being his main motif across all Life Series, the ability to slow and speed time according to his will is easily solvable but with the inclusion of the Hermitcraft and Empires crossover event, his ability to speed time according to his sleep schedule becomes another layer deep. Besides the clock being a main symbol for Bdubs, the concept of sleep is another that has essentially been from the beginning of Hermitcraft. Always carrying a bed and sleeping whenever. The Empires crossover Bdubs was framed as a god of sorts of the Sun. Always bright and always there when the Sun remained as its brightest.
Bigb can summon creaking. He creaking. He is like a king or dimplomant to the players who invade their home and they view him as their kin so he has the responsibility and power to summon them.
Ethoslab based of Kakashi from Naruto is by definition a ninja. An escapee or fugitive at best. So with his ability to jump higher boosted by wind charges can be explained by his connection to the shonen series and the inclusion of the mace could be chalked up to typically stories of protagonists gaining resources or inventory to defeat the "Big Bad" or achieve some sort of goal that is to win the Life Series.
GeminiTay or GeminiSlay named by others intimidated by her, has slayed each participant brutally in the Life Series and on Hermitcraft rewarding her the reputation from her immense PvP skills. So with her power of astral projection, it acts retribution for the slayed to talk and apologise or instigate to those dead for her or others benefit.
GoodTimeWithScar is nortorious for being not PG friendly so the inclusion of one of his powers been the ability to ride people, it's self explanatory. Yet as Scar is commonly associated with and as a vex, his other powers of extreme knockback and thorns can be explained by the hostile and aggressivness of the mob.
Grian as essentially the grandmaster or orchestrator of the Life Series would have access to all the powers and mimic but not fully copy the others' powers. Yet because of his power chained by an omnipresent force, he's unable to fully copy the powers but imitate them for only short periods of time.
ImpulseSV and his teleportation powers could derive from his cyber-theme aesthetic for his Hermitcraft Season X base. With most series of fictions based around cyberpunk civilisations, technologies like teleporation and other advanced transportational devices are commonly utilsed. Resulting in Impulse's power of teleportation and the ability to swap the position of another with himself.
Martyn power is boosted hearing cause he's a Listener.
So Lizzie or LDShadowLady's inflicts blindless or a shadow upon the surrounding people in her radius and resulting her in temporary invisibility and blindess to others around her. But from her endless descent into the void in Secret Life, arises Lizzie with trails of the void clinging to grasp the light of the overworld. Causing the void remnants to spread to others and infect them with blindness in all for the hope to spread towards the light from the cold world of the End.
With the ability to fly, PearlescentMoon carries aesthetics relating to Greek mythology in both her powers and external design choices. As one of the Postmasters of Hermitcraft, Pearl is essentially the builder and additional redstone help of the trio for the postoffice and other aesthetic designs. Hermes the herald or messenger of the Olympus gods delievers messages to other celestial dieties and mortals similar to Pearl's jobs as a Postmaster. Other than the similar professions, both Pearl and Hermes wear a petasos which is essentially a wide-brimmed hat that is commoly adorned for shade and for Hermes, additional wings to the sides of the hat. Symbolising their shared ability to fly quickly and efficiently for a purpose.
As RentheDog is commonly interpreted as a dog-hybrid of sorts by the Hermitcraft and Life Series community, his ability to splice and copy the DNA of others to match their appearance could be an aftermath or positive side-effect from his hybrid mutation.
Similar to Ren, Scott has the capability to transform into any mob in sight and similar to Limited Life where he was depicted as a siren as part of the Mean Gills. His ability to shape-shift into any mob regardless if it's passive or aggressive could be similar to his mutliple origins from New Life SMP and Origin SMP and the reflect the changing nature of his powers.
So Joel with essentially triple jump could be hinting his slimely origins of his Shrek skin in the swamp. Where the swamp generally spawns slimes at a higher rate than other slime chunks and slime blocks harvested from the slimes can be used as jump boosts. Resulting in the triple jump.
After just breaking the Canary Curse two seasons ago, SolidarityGaming or Jimmy has the power to turn fully invisible until someone or something damages him. Ever since his debut to the Watchers back in Evo, Jimmy has been under constant surveillance by the Watchers as an object of their amusement. Always failing to reach even the finale and fumbling to keep alive. Yet when he broke the curse and relayed it too another, he was discarded. Seen invisible to the Watchers as he had become an object of boredom by reaching his resolution. So that's where his invisibility comes from.
Tango with his cowardly approach to things, has constantly ran away from situations but with this power, it supercharges his speed allowing him to become part of the fight and conflict instead of running away. And with his ability to frost-walk on ice, it could recall his Season 9's skin back when he was the Dungeon Master in Decked Out II and became an icy persona.
ZombieCleo and resurect dead people as she's a reanimated zombie.
