On the night of the game, Laivan spends much of his time goofing around and playing Anthropormuncipality with [[Murrit Turkin|Murrit]]. He messages Arcjec, asking him if he wants to join in as well, which Arcjec declines. During their game, Murrit wanders off to mess with Dismas and prepare him for the coming night, before going off to the Frog Temple next to his hive to observe the Lotus Time Capsule in it. Before he leaves, Murrit makes a memo regarding the game and includes everyone (except Ellsee) in it. | |||
Meanwhile, Laivan takes a nap, waking up on [[Prospit]], as he's done ever since he made a contract with [[White Noise]]. He visits Arcjec, who has yet to wake up. He delivers another Prospitian newspaper to Arcjec's dreamself, in hopes that once he wakes up, he can easily be caught up on being a Prospite dreamer. Laivan quietly wishes that Arcjec had woken up sooner, wondering if he might have been a happier person if he did. White Noise uses his reality-warping abilities to make Dream Arcjec momentarily smile, which freaks Laivan out and tell White Noise to take it easy. | |||
He is then intercepted by White Noise and taken into his static realm. The two reflect on the purpose of the game and its existence, and how the trolls are destined to play it, but are ultimately destined to fail to meet its purpose. Noise notes that failure does not mean inevitable defeat. They also reflect on why Laivan took Noise's deal, with Laivan simply stating that the deal would give him a purpose. White Noise then gives Laivan the essense of his soul: a medallion with The Green Sun contained within, telling him that he must return from where it came for the sake of the perpetuation of reality. As Laivan puts on the Green Sun medallion, he finds himself unable to breathe, and White Noise uses his abilities to send Laivan away. | |||
Laivan is then awoken by his dog lusus: Mutt. After making sure he still has the medallion, he answers a message from his matesprit: [[pliableDecadence]]. The two lovers discuss Murrit's plans for the night, and the fact that it happened to be their anniversary. PD light-heartedly brings up how she and Laivan first met when he accidentally shot her in the leg and left her with a permanent handicap, which makes Laivan visibly uncomfortable, despite PD not being mad about the accident anymore.

As he is away from his desk, he receives a set of panicked messages from Albion, who had recently learned a distressing truth from her lusus. | |||

After Arcjec enters the game, Laivan is seen helping [[Taz]] with her entry. The two struggled to find Taz's code set of codes while Laivan continues to play more Anthropomunicipality with Murrit, which infuriates Taz. The two are abruptly pulled into a memo made by [[Ellsee Raines|Ellsee]], who wishes to share her own knowledge of the game in response to being excluded from Murrit's. Laivan is grateful for the prospect of help, but Taz behaves incredulously when she sees that Laivan wasting time with banter. When Taz leaves the memo in a huff, he chides her for burning bridges when they could have used the help. Suddenly, when Taz's back is turned, Taz's lusus succumbs to her natural instincts and jumps into the black ocean depths that neighbor Taz's hive. The large mink monster is very swiftly eaten a live by the deadly fauna below, and its blood reveals the location of Taz's code: in the rocks at the edge of the cliff, hidden by the murky black water. As Taz goes into a grief-driven rage, Laivan asks if Taz is okay, and Taz makes it clear that she does not want to talk about it and that they should move on. | |||
Taz and Laivan make quick work of the entry process, and when it comes time for Taz to unleash her [[denizen|nizen]], she has Laivan to put the rusted and locked cage, her [[Paragon Repository]], in her [[Tazsia's hive|Torture Fort]] so that she can go against it on her own terms. Despite trying everything in her power to destroy the cage, it having a lock with no key, she is forced to ask Laivan for help to fetch her Ferocity Weaver which she left outside in the rush. Laivan obliges and gives it to her, and Taz uses it to channel the full power of her rage and chucklevoodoo to destroy the cage and unleash her denizen. The release of her frustrations on the cage calms Taz back down in the process. The denizen quickly enters the portal and Taz follows suit. | |||
After Taz's entry, Laivan begins preparing for his own, with Murrit as his server player. Laivan questions why Murrit left Ellsee's memo, clearly upset about how poorly she is treated. Murrit doesn't provide an answer, only telling Laivan that he has his reasons and he should trust him. Murrit then begins the entry process. | |||

Biography
Six Sweeps
Laivan made a deal with White Noise at a young age with the condition that he will return at a later date and fulfill an obligation for him. Upon making this deal, Laivan awoke on the moon of Prospit and became a well-recognized figure on the moon. Eventually spending his nights getting newspapers to give to Arcjec upon his awakening so he can know about his surroundings. Why exactly he does this is currently unknown, but it is implied that it is because Laivan has some sort of history with him.
Pre-Game
On the night of the game, Laivan spends much of his time goofing around and playing Anthropormuncipality with Murrit. He messages Arcjec, asking him if he wants to join in as well, which Arcjec declines. During their game, Murrit wanders off to mess with Dismas and prepare him for the coming night, before going off to the Frog Temple next to his hive to observe the Lotus Time Capsule in it. Before he leaves, Murrit makes a memo regarding the game and includes everyone (except Ellsee) in it.
Meanwhile, Laivan takes a nap, waking up on Prospit, as he's done ever since he made a contract with White Noise. He visits Arcjec, who has yet to wake up. He delivers another Prospitian newspaper to Arcjec's dreamself, in hopes that once he wakes up, he can easily be caught up on being a Prospite dreamer. Laivan quietly wishes that Arcjec had woken up sooner, wondering if he might have been a happier person if he did. White Noise uses his reality-warping abilities to make Dream Arcjec momentarily smile, which freaks Laivan out and tell White Noise to take it easy.
He is then intercepted by White Noise and taken into his static realm. The two reflect on the purpose of the game and its existence, and how the trolls are destined to play it, but are ultimately destined to fail to meet its purpose. Noise notes that failure does not mean inevitable defeat. They also reflect on why Laivan took Noise's deal, with Laivan simply stating that the deal would give him a purpose. White Noise then gives Laivan the essense of his soul: a medallion with The Green Sun contained within, telling him that he must return from where it came for the sake of the perpetuation of reality. As Laivan puts on the Green Sun medallion, he finds himself unable to breathe, and White Noise uses his abilities to send Laivan away.
Laivan is then awoken by his dog lusus: Mutt. After making sure he still has the medallion, he answers a message from his matesprit: pliableDecadence.

After Arcjec enters the game, Laivan is seen helping Taz with her entry. The two struggled to find Taz's code set of codes while Laivan continues to play more Anthropomunicipality with Murrit, which infuriates Taz.

As Taz goes into a grief-driven rage, Laivan asks if Taz is okay, and Taz makes it clear that she does not want to talk about it and that they should move on.
Taz and Laivan make quick work of the entry process, and when it comes time for Taz to unleash her nizen, she has Laivan to put the rusted and locked cage, her Paragon Repository, in her Torture Fort so that she can go against it on her own terms. Despite trying everything in her power to destroy the cage, it having a lock with no key, she is forced to ask Laivan for help to fetch her Ferocity Weaver which she left outside in the rush.

Murrit doesn't provide an answer, only telling Laivan that he has his reasons and he should trust him. Murrit then begins the entry process.
During the game
Laivan has yet to enter The Game.
Personality and Traits
Laivan is a passive but sociable troll who seems to get along with just about anyone. Having a severe lung condition after a malfunction in his artificial birthing process, Laivan's capabilities and choices with what he does in life are inherently limited. However, this doesn't appear to bother him much and makes due with the help of his friends and his beloved lusus, Mutt.
Among Laivan's interests are sharpshooting, taxidermy, playing video games and dogs. If trolls had a concept of furries, Laivan would be one, due to his love and frequent association with dog-like creatures. This further established by his love of drawing original characters based on dogs, he has two as far as we know; one named Figment and one named Abel.
At some point in his youth, Laivan made a deal with White Noise to fulfill some sort of obligation related to the perpetuation of reality. In matters related to these obligations, Laivan tends to take things much more seriously but also begins to rush.
In his conversation with White Noise, Laivan admits that he doesn't really know what he wants out of life and that he largely took White Noise's deal out of a desire for purpose. In the same conversation, Noise characterizes Laivan as pragmatic, caring and constantly listless.
Relationships
Murrit Turkin
Murrit is one of Laivan's closest friends, with the two sharing a passion for Anthropormuncipality and a destiny in leading everyone to play the game they recovered from the Frog Temple.

Murrit is often more honest around Laivan in turn and does not seem to harass him as harshly as some others, even though he isn't free from it either.
pliableDecadence
Laivan and PD are matesprits and appear to be as close as two can be. The two met when Laivan apparently accidentally shot PD in the leg at one point which left her unable to use that leg without a cane or a brace. Apparently, they fell in love within the night due to this accident, the absurdity of which is something that does not elude them. PD is evidentially more comfortable with making light of the accident than Laivan is, for obvious reasons.
Arcjec Voorat
Laivan isn't bothered by Arcjec's cantankerous personality and sardonic demeanor but considers him to be a generally sad person. The two appear to be good friends and their relationship appears to be one of Arcjec's least tumultuous ones. They potentially share some sort of deeper connection, as Laivan frequently visits Arcjec's sleeping dreamself on Prospit and Arcjec's pants match Laivan's blood color.
Albion Shukra
Although their relationship has not been elaborated on, Albion and Laivan appear to be on good terms and do message one another enough to where Albion feels comfortable in asking Laivan for help. He is visibly worried when she messages him and he is unable to get a response.
Ellsee Raines

Trivia
- His tag is a reference to his asthmatic condition and to his taxidermical interests.
- His dog-like traits are based on his archetype of "Unoriginal" or "Furry", both of which would potentially associate him with a character from another comic.
- Laivan is apparently very bad at tying knots.
- Laivan has a tendency to use a lot of glue, and constantly seems to run out of it.
- He has two laptops that appear to be the exact same laptop, only one is literally marked with a '2' on it.
