And their connections to each other
Iâve low key been thinking about Phil, Techno, and Death (Mumza) and had a realization
If Mumza is death and Phil is deathâs angel then Techno should be deathâs blade
Basically itâs a popular head canon (and is somewhat implied canon by Phil) that Mumza / Kristin is death or the goddess of death. This is partially due to the idea that while Techno was referred to as the blood god during SMP earth, Phil was referred to as the Angel of death. It transferred over to the DreamSMP and it was brought up that what if âAngel of deathâ wasnât an Angel who brings death, but deathâs angel. And who better for phil to be an Angel to than Mumza.
A very interesting thing I found about Philâs character is while he call him the Angel of death, deathâs Angel, he has actually only killed one person (canonically) - Wilbur.
Wilbur I-Just-Blew-Up-An-Entire-Country-Please-Phil-Kill-Me Soot. It could honestly be described as somewhat of a mercy kill.
To me at least, Deathâs Angel would be a much more merciful killer. Think the personifications of death that are merciful, that rock dying animals to sleep in their arms, lead scared children away from the living world with their hand in theirs. Deathâs Angel is kind in death, a fatherly figure in ones last moments. Sounds like the kind side of Philâs character.
As to the more chaotic side- heâs still his own person, and is technically mortal, though heâs lived for a very long time, that would make a man chaotic.
On that topic- Phil is technically mortal in the sense that he can die, but he ages much much slower than the average person. He has only ever had 1 canon life, after each life he reunites with mumza until he is reborn to another place.
In one of his last lives he was killed by a baby zombie.
Techno / Deathâs Blade / Blood God
While Phil is Deathâs Angel, Deathâs Mercy - Techno is Deathâs Blade, her wrath. Unlike Phil he is not reborn - he has lived one (very long) life (hence technoblade never dies). However unlike Phil he doesnât age, which is why he calls Phil old.
After SMP Earth, he had retired to far off floating islands, where he settled down and set up a farm, until mumza called on him again.
Unlike Phil, Techno has many canon kills. Tubbo, Schlatt, Quackity, Quackity again, and is a renowned warrior, unbested. Again works with the idea of being deathâs blade, deathâs warrior, deathâs wrath.
He has 3 canon lives because he was a normal piglin brute (or just pig idk) before he was chosen, which stopped his aging and gave him abilities (made him a player) and because he isnât reborn, he only has one life, so him having 1 life and being in the heat of battle all the time doesnât make sense.
Basically Phil and techno know each other because they work together and under deathâs command. They are Yin and Yang of mercy and wrath.
I love this theory and I will not be taking criticism thank you very much. (I actually will if you have any questions or want to nitpick specifics I will very gladly elaborate I love getting into those specific questions about headcannons)
(Also if anyone has ideas for what ranboo, niki, Wilbur, or another member might be feel free to add on) (I just feel like ranboo niki and Wilbur would be the most likely)
