《A Guide To The Egos: Jacksepticeye》Chase Brody (Part 2)
Advertisement
TRIGGER WARNING: Depression, s**cide attempt, and mentions of alcoholism.
Chase Brody first appeared in the video "The Jacksepticeye Power Hour — Chase Brody" (originally titled "Teabag Edition | Bro Average") uploaded on April 11, 2017. This video acts as his first—and only—Bro Average vlog, and we see Chase attempting to make low-quality trick shots. The trick shots he attempts to make are: "The Teabag" (throwing a teabag into a mug), "The Easter Egg Hunt" (throwing Cadbury eggs into a box, and "The Roar of the Lyon" (shooting a box with a Nerf gun). Chase makes sure to celebrate whenever he makes a shot. When we see Chase attempting, and sometimes making, the trick shots, he puts on a happy demeanor and a smile, as he doesn't want to let anyone know of the troubles he's facing off-screen. But despite his effort to hide them, in between the trick shots the camera person eavesdrops on Chase. Because of this, we find out that Chase is having marital troubles possibly due to his work, and begs his wife Stacy not to take their kids, but she tells him that she wants a divorce. When Chase tries to talk to his kids and say that he loves them, they hang up and Chase begins to cry. Every time the video cuts back to the trick shots, Chase appears to get more and more agitated, although he tries not to let it show for the camera. At the end of this video he professes his love for Stacy and that he doesn't want her to leave. Then he attempts suicide. The attempt is unsuccessful, as he opens his eyes.
The next time we see, or rather, hear, from Chase is at the end of the video "THEY'RE HERE | Stories Untold — Chapter 3," uploaded on May 7, 2018. As Sean is sharing what he thinks about the game, whispering starts to become audible and Sean's voice becomes muffled as he says. "Oh...this is good." The screen then goes black, and this may imply that Sean went into a coma. We hear Chase's voice in the darkness calling out to the YouTuber: "Jack.... Jack! This is Chase! You need to wake up." The video ends with radio sounding out morse code, which delivers the message "WHERE AM I?"

The come storyline seems to come back in the video uploaded on May 11, 2018, "TIE — A Game About Depression," which is also the next time we see Chase Brody. The ego talks about how he can only see his kids on the weekends, and he mentions how his best friend is in a coma—this seems to reference what happened at the end of "THEY'RE HERE | Stories Untold — Chapter 3." Towards the end of the video we can see Chase stroking a photograph as he's crying and drinking whiskey. Then we see him set the picture down and places his hat over it before leaving. This is how the video ends.
On May 14, 2018, Chase appears towards the end of the video "Dark Silence." What we see takes place at night; Chase walks through the seemingly empty house with nothing but a flame from a cigarette lighter. He can hear his kids screaming, which further prompts him to try and find them. When he goes upstairs he sees a figure standing at the end of the hall, bathed in red light, with his back to Chase. Then the figure turns, and it's clear that it's meant to be Antisepticeye. He starts walking towards Chase as the father as he screams, "Where are they?! What do you want from me?!"
October 13, 2019: Chase gets the second video solely focused on him. The video is titled "CHASE." Whether this video continues to follow the Sean-in-a-coma storyline is unknown. The video does not include any dialogue, and thus all of the story shown relies on visual clues. To start, we see a vacate notice, indicating that Chase no longer has a house to call home, and we see him going to his car. The inside of the vehicle is a mess, which alludes to the idea that Chase is becoming an alcoholic. Anti appears in the backseat of the car in this portion—as Chase searches for the picture of his family in the glove compartment, Anti is visble in the back. There's an idea that Anti is really the cause of Chase's problems and his depression. When Chase finds the picture, he screams in frustration, then starts the car and drives until he arrives in a forest. He exits the car, finds a cairn, and sets the picture from his glove compartment against it. It's unknown whether this mean his family is dead, missing, or just cut off contact with him. He drinks whiskey for a while, then is teleported from the woods into a car park. He looks around, confused. It's unclear how or why this happened, but we know that the other egos are involved.

We also see Chase, only for a fleeting moment, in "Don't Make Eye Contact," as Marvin the Magnificent has a vision while looking in a crystal ball.
As of writing this section of the guide, there has been another sighting that's believed to be Chase. In the video, "I got cancelled on Twitter," Chase can be heard pleading with Satan to see his family. From 5:55—6:08 he says, "Look Satan, I've done what you want. Please just let my family go. I plugged the coffee twice already, I told them to look at the graph and to subscribe to the channel—what more do you want from me?" And from 20:23—20:38 he says, "Look, it's been three times now. Can you please just put them on the phone so I can hear their voices and know they're okay?"
Other small appearances of Chase include:
—the animated short, "JACKIEBOY MAN BACK IN JACKTION!"
—the video, "L A U G H" in which he shows up in a fan-made clip; it recreates Sean's "LAUGH!" clip, but the board says "CRY" instead
—the video, "This Isn't Funny!" Sean reacts to a "Super Smash Bros" edit of his egos; Chase appears in the edit with the caption "Wants to see the kids"

A Different Kind of God
The city that never sleeps is one like no other. You could look at the wolves on Wallstreet trying to make a buck or you could look at the more fun things, the more supernatural things. There are all manner of these things in the underbelly of New York whether it be gods, demons, monsters, or even vampires. Now, where does Liam fit in? ... This is a Percy Jackson/Elderscrolls Fanfic I came up with in my free time. After writing 16 chapters I had some people DM me about co-posting it to different sites. Currently, I have it up over on Fanficiton.net and Spacebattles but as I saw this site allows fanfiction, and I use this site a lot, I decided to start posting it here as well. Feel free to enjoy it or hate it, I'm just writing to have some fun. If you're wanting to read it on either of those two sites I have the same name on both.

A City of One
A three-part story about a mad scientist, a child of death, and a man plagued by imminent doom. Part 1: He's the last man on earth, and it's all his fault. The time counts down as Cain fights against the remains of a fallen world in order to complete a mysterious mission. Where did all the people go? What is Cain's goal? Find out in "A City of One." Author recommendation: This story is best read slowly with sad music playing in your ears.

The Fall of The Gods
Synopsis: In the year 1966, an army of Orishas led by Sango stormed Amadioha’s palace and razed it the ground, starting a decades-long war between two of Nigeria’s most powerful divine orders. Blinded by the rage of battle, the gods did not detect the rise of a third power, far greater and deadlier than anything they could have imagined. When gods, on both the Yoruba and Igbo sides, begin falling mysteriously to their death, Sango seeks the help of Odion, a Lagos teenager destined to rise from his dark past to become a hero. But can a human hero save the gods from a doomed fate? The Fall of the Gods is an action-packed YA fantasy based on the mythical bond that ties human life with the realm of the divine. It demonstrates the power of stories to change our lives. It also reminds us that Sango and Amadioha are not relics of the past and that, sometimes, what it means to be a hero in today’s world is knowing how to find inspiration in the stories of the gods. PLEASE NOTE: Weekly chapters will be released every friday along with interludes once in a while about Nigerian mythology. I'm a young 17 year old writer and I am new to the site so I will appreciate your comments and reviews. Thank you very much.

Gloryland
**for Quravin** It's the summer of 2010, and Evan Barker's older brother Jason has just committed suicide. His devastated parents are reeling from the Recession, his friends are shiftless drunks, and his younger sister has been committed after discovering Jason's body. In an attempt to assuage the trauma his family has experienced and break away from his own shitty existence, Evan decides to grab his portion of the modern American Dream by trying out for that year's American Idol auditions in Nashville. Never mind that Evan's a 21-year-old virgin with a self-image as poor as his social skills. Never mind that he's never even attempted to sing before. In 21st century America, anything is possible, or so Evan's been told by a cultural upbringing of "Follow your dreams" and "Everyone is special" and "True love awaits". Speaking of true love, Evan asks Lily Trent to accompany him on the journey. Lily is a childhood acquaintance with whom he's recently reconnected and developed a crush on. Lately Lily's been working as a stripper, a cynical and jaded young woman who may or may not have her own motivations for joining Evan on the trip. Evan hopes the time alone will spark reciprocal affections in Lily, and an improbable come-from-nowhere triumph on national TV will not only free his family from their blue collar burdens, but win him the respect and love he craves-- not just from others, but from himself. Together, Evan and Lily discover why learning how to fail may be their generation's greatest lesson. Cover art by Gerry Siorek
