Trophonius

Welcome to the Order.— Kydomus

History

Trophonius created their first Roblox account, known as "robyty", on the 21st of May, 2012.^[1] Initially, this account wasn't all that active, as Trophonius used a different account as their main account, known as meligato. This account was created on July 31st, 2012, and was used as his main account until late 2016. Early on, meligato would discover myths on Roblox, most notably being intrigued with 1x1x1x1.^[2][3] In November 2012, meligato would create a forum post stating that he had a "Myth HQ", likely tied to myths such as John & Jane Doe, as well as 1x1x1x1.^[4] Later on, in 2013, meligato would join the group Robloxian Myth Hunters. During this time, meligato would continue to be interested in 1x1x1x1, as well as legends like Dignity, Zuka and Minish. There is also one video documenting meligato interacting with Lezus, although it was a fake account.^[5]

During the next few years, meligato would continue to be actively involved with myths, uploading videos onto various channels covering myths like WilsonGrey and Lost Void. In 2016, Meligato began his journey with RMH as a YouTube/Video Team member, with the help of Cenoglyphic and Hjo337. His videos, particularly his myth hunting videos, were highly regarded at the time. His successes were duly noted by Cenoglyphic, RMH's second in command, and he was promoted to the rank of Extreme Hunter, which granted him special abilities. Unfortunately, Meligato ran into controversy in June of that same year when he imposed limits on the powers of lower ranks due to the lack of administration in the group, which was met with disapproval from the RMH community. Cenoglyphic also expressed his disapproval of Meligato's new restrictions, leading Meligato to impulsively destroy the RMH headquarters using admin commands as a form of compensation. As a result, Meligato was demoted and eventually left RMH.

After a long absence, Meligato returned to RMH in late 2016, under a new pseudonym. He self-terminated his main account and operated on his other 2012 account, "Robyty". This account was initially used for a small myth, although it would later turn into hunting account. With Smartruffy and ClockJpg, he formed a laid-back group to investigate the Noli myth in Roblox. Soon after, Robyty released a video exposing the supposed corruption of the RMH staff. This caught the attention of Cenoglyphic, who gave Robyty another chance. Robyty then proceeded to overthrow the corrupt admins, most notably MrLonelyVoiceCracks. His was then promoted to the title of "Hunting Prodigy," and he was able to assist in the development of the third edition of the RMH headquarters , construction of a discotheque in the classic "RMH Town" game, and a redecoration of the RMH Park.

During 2018, robyty would also gain ownership of the account MartinCult. This new ownership led to the Cult Family being revived. This iteration of the Cult Family was quite silly, including members such as BobbyCult, LenzCult, ArthurCult and DavidCult. Later on, Kazdam, the owner and founder of Roblox's Myths would urge robyty to add MartinCult to RM. Robyty reluctantly agreed, seeing it as a chance to both help the myth's evolution and gain success points for himself. Robyty left the Robloxian Myth Hunters to join Roblox's Myths, where he soon became a supervisor and eventually the head of the department of foreign relations. With the help of the Technology department, Robyty further developed the MartinCult character with a customized mechanized suit and sword.

Later on in 2018, many people would learn the identity of MartinCult. This led to Robyty selling the account to Kazdam, for 3,000 Robux. After this, robyty changed his name to Kydomus and began work on "RM City," a game inspired by Batman's Gotham City but based on Robloxian myths and legends. The project was done in partnership with numerous high-ranking RM executives including but not limited to Universities and Taphies. With the majority of its developers focusing on the group and Kazdam wanting to establish a new containment facility, he took away Kydomus' lone builder and cancels "RM City.” Kydomus would then disappear from the community for a while.

During TheStormlsComing's memorial organized by Robert_Void and The Void Cult in 2020, he was briefly seen on his alternate account, "Okunote." In mid-2021, Kydomus would return again, with a new group titled "Order of Owls". This group contained various veteran myth hunters such as Universities, Enszo, iEvee, Hapsta, ClockJpg, iAounic, and others, as well as bringing new experienced myth hunters such as Ouselle, Misodent, Iateabanma, and Sonssier. He also relaunched his YouTube career, releasing new videos as well as old archived videos from the myth community's "golden days". He would also beginworking on EudoraCult, an short-lived member of the Cult Family, added under robyty's leadership.

Eudora was MartinCult's wife in Kydomus' storyline until Kazdam entirely removed her. Kydomus enlisted the help of a close friend to join in the myth and began introducing additional characters, such as "AylethCult," before establishing "Cult Family: Generation One" as a separate story from the Cult Family Rebirth story-line. EudoraCult's story was independent of the Rebirth plot-line as it followed in the footsteps of previous iterations of the Cult Family myth. In January, 2022, after being thrown into controversy yet again (check "Controversy/Drama" section), Kydomus deactivated all of his places and groups, self-terminated the majority of his Roblox accounts, and canceled the EudoraCult myth.

On May 31st, 2022, Kydomus briefly logged onto Roblox to upload requested myth decals to an archival group. He reconciled with his creative partner from the Cult Family: Generation One myth after their falling out. Kydomus would then turn to a new account, Trophonius, which was originally created in 2017. This account would be used for around a year, until a falling out with the user "alawkwa", which led to the account being terminated, and Trophonius disappearing.

• In late 2012, Trophonius' main account, "Meligato," was hacked by an unknown user claiming to be 1x1x1x1. This prompted him to create a new account, "xXmeligatoXx." A year or so later, this account was later hacked as well as terminated.
• Meligato and Universities were acquainted in 2012 before they were myth hunters, when Meligato was on his primary account and Universities was on his previous account "christian10232456."
