“So, you three think you can run around doing anything your heart desires? Not on my watch.”

–Willham

Willham, sometimes spelled Wilham and Wilhem, is a character that appears as a main character in Blank Slates, Salem Rose Pt. 1, Salem Rose Pt. 2, Blank Slates 2, and Heather Dating Sim Prelude. He is one of two screeners, the other being Shadow Mari. He was originally against the population of The Void and worked to delete them all, but he eventually had a change of heart. He was visited by Miles and Milfre during their conflict and was one of the many people to help defeat Salem Rose. He later worked to apprehend GenericChallenge and find Jeremiah Slaczka. At his death, he transferred his powers over to Temte Mapleleaf.

Appearance

As a screener, Willham is a blue mist that can change his form at will. He also has one physical accessory, being a pair of glasses, that can also be dissolved or changed at will.

Story

Creation

Willham was created alongside Mayo and the Four Guardians by Joe at one point to help regulate cut and unused content in The Void.

Shadow Mari's Attack

Willham is first seen at the Discussion Grounds with his fellow screener Mayo, helping the Four Guardians decide on who to send up to the Developer's Grove. Eager to send someone up and be done with the discussion, the Guardians and Willham agree to send Mildew to the Grove. After making the decision, Shadow Mari attacks the Discussion Grounds and sends a beam of Shadow through Willham, killing him.

Erasing the Villages

Eventually, Willham reforms himself and watches as the Wii Village begins to form. He decides to erase the village and those in it, including Rocko, Fox, and Jinxy. He succeeds in erasing the village, but fails to erase the three characters. After threatening to erase them, Rocko convinces him to keep them alive, as they can lead him to Shadow Mari so that he can get his revenge against her. Rocko says that they need to make a pit stop at The Next Chapter Village to find Fiora and Lambert.

When they get to The Next Chapter Village, Willham begins to dissolve the village, and after getting in another argument with the characters, he leaves them. Eventually, he charges at the village and erases it, along with Fox, Lambert, Hans, the Rocket Vulture, Rata, Tat & Tat. This prompts and argument between all the survivors of the attack in the area, ending with the group splintering off. After fighting with Mayo and Crawler, the three of them, along with Rocko, decide to fly to the Shadow Hole to fight Shadow Mari.

Fixing his Mistakes

On the way there, Flash stops them and begs them to help fight Dinofrog. Willham agrees to help fight and creates a cloud of blue smoke around the beast, erasing it. Just as the smoke dissipates, a tree thrown by the Droogle Killer lands on where Dinofrog used to be. The group then returns back to their journey. When they arrive at the hole, Willham apologizes to the characters for erasing their friends and begins to fly to the other side of the hole. As he makes his way to the other side, Mayo begins to fly after him. When Drakon flies into the Shadow Hole and Shadow Mari calls off the army, Mayo tells Shadow Mari to kill Willham once more, and she obliges.

When he reformed himself, he was met by Mayo's breakdown and her screams. When she noticed him, she began to yell about how she changed the void for him. When Mayo floats back to the ground and begins to sob, Willham pulls Shadow Mari aside and asks her about what happened. Eventually, the two of them come to an understanding and worked together to silence the Droogle's fear. Willham asked for the Droogle Leader, and in tandem with Shadow Mari, grabbed him and dove into the Shadow Hole, erasing it from the void.

When he arrived in the Developer's Grove, he handed the Droogle Leader off to Joe and asked him to delete Mayo from the void permanently. He and Shadow Mari then returned to the void to bring life back to the area and return everyone's friends.

Giving Miles a Shadow Stone

Willham is next seen when Miles discovers the void. Annoyed, Willham takes Miles, along with Flash and Rocko, to The Next Chapter Village. As Flash talks to Miles about how he found out about the void, Miles reveals that he has a Time Machine at his disposal. Willham gets annoyed, and when Miles says that more of his friends are time-travelers as well, Willham tells Miles to leave. He points out the Color Vat and then tells Miles how to use a Shadow Stone to return to his realm, explicitly telling him to destroy the stone.

Recruiting Aly and Fighting Salem Rose

Later on, Willham is one of the beings who welcomes Alana, believing herself to be Aly, back into the void. He and Shadow Mari realize that Sandal's Shadow is restoring Aly's memories. When Alana's memories of the void return, Willham and Shadow Mari pull her aside and tell her about GenericChallenge, asking her to help them capture him and bring him to the void. She agrees to the terms and returns to Belleview.

Almost immediately after Alana leaves, Salem Rose, a corrupt version of Miles, attacks the void. Willham, along with Shadow Mari, Crawler, Jinxy, Fox, and Rocket Vulture. They encase Salem Rose in a ball of Shadow and smoke, but he portals away to the Color Vat. Willham, Shadow Mari, and the Four Guardians fly over to him, but Salem Rose falls into the vat before they can attack him. They call for him to come out, and when he does in a blaze of color, Willham realizes that Salem Rose never destroyed the Shadow Stone and tries to erase him from existence, but his attack misses and Salem Rose disappears.

Building Milfre's Team

Willham is next seen when Milfre comes to the Dev Grove asking for help fighting Salem Rose. He and Shadow Mari come up to the Grove at Joe's request, and the two of them agree to help fight Salem Rose. Milfre gets Kamalah and Jowee from Rapoville in 2042, and the five of them go to 1982 to find Athys and her time machine. When they arrive in Rapoville, Shadow Mari hones in on Athys' Shadow while Willham explains to Milfre and Kamalah the events that had happened in the void, stating that he's happy to finally be away from the void. Just then, Shadow Mari notices that Athys teleported to her lair, creating her own portal, and the group travels through it.

In Athys' Lair, Willham stays back with Milfre while Kamalah talks to Athys and Shadow Mari talks to Jowee. Willham asks Milfre why she doesn't have any code or art associated with her, and Milfre, annoyed at Willham for a tone he had earlier, simply brushes off his concern, saying that it might be because she's a Creation Hero. She then announces that Athys' time machine is ready to use, so the five of them pile into the machine, and Athys tells them to return to 2042 to visit Lavasteam.

In Lavasteam, the five of them appear in Russet's meeting room, and Willham, Shadow Mari, and Russet talk about the damage Salem Rose had caused. As Milfre reunites with Stampy, she calls the attention of everyone in the room. After getting a census of the abilities each being had, Willham's being his ability to erase things from existence, she tells the group about the fight against Salem Rose they were about to take part in. Everyone except Lock and Russet gather in the time machine, with Russet staying in Lavasteam and Lock holding onto the machine, and the group leaves for 2007 Rapoville.

Rematch with Salem Rose

When they arrive outside the Village Bridge, Willham waits as Milfre attempts to talk down Salem Rose, but when she fails, Willham, along with Jowee, Lock, and Stampy, fight Salem Rose. Willham tries to erase him from existence, but Salem Rose attacks Willham's glasses, causing the screener to vanish for a bit. When he reforms, he sees the rest of Milfre's team sending blasts of their weapons at Salem Rose, so Willham joins in. However, he is attacked when Salem Rose throws the Galatic Jungle Orb at Willham, erasing the orb from existence. Then, Salem Rose releases a supercharged blast of ruby energy, knocking out everyone except Wilfre and destroying all three time machines in the area.

When Willham and Shadow Mari wake up, they find Athys and Wilfre pinning Salem Rose down and stripping him of his power. Willham takes the opportunity to erase the Ruby Earring from existence. When Wilfre kills Salem Rose and Milfre wakes up, she, Willham, and Shadow Mari help bring their unconscious friends back to the Dev Grove. Once there, Willham says goodbye to everyone, and as they return to their homes, he goes over to Joe, asking to be sent back to the void.

Searching for Miah

When Shadow Mari returned, Joe explains that the Droogle Leader had gone missing, taking his sword with him. Willham decides to erase a cluster of trees to search for him, but his plan fails. Eventually, Joe decides that they need to find Miah. Joe brings Alana and David Franco back to the Developer's Grove, and he tells them that after the development of Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter, he hid himself in canon as Mike's father - Mr. Row.

While Alana, Franco, and Shadow Mari left for 2007 to look for him, Willham and Joe stayed behind to discuss the grove and the void. When the three of them return with GenericChallenge, Willham starts berating him for stealing people and things from the void, leaving them in canon and establishing their roles. GenericChallenge agrees to tell the group where Miah was if he was allowed to tie up his loose ends in canon. Willham and Joe reluctantly agree, and GenericChallenge leads them to Miah.

When Miah returns to the Developer's Grove, he creates the Stylus and explains how it works. Willham thanks Miah for the chance to meet him, and Joe uses the stylus to send Willham and Shadow Mari back to the void.

Battle with the Jungle Creature

Willham and Shadow Mari reappear outside the Two Realms Plains where they see the Shadow Squid attacking and reopening the Shadow Hole. Willham takes to the skies and asks Gingerfre what had been going on. After learning about the Tree King, Willham covers the Shadow Squid in smoke and attempts to delete it, but is shocked to see it doesn't work. Willham helps the rest of the group fight the Shadow Squid, and the combined efforts of Lambert and Violet take it down.

Willham and the group then head towards the Wii Village, where the Tree King had starting attacking again, and Willham attempts to erase it. However, the Tree King is too large to be deleted, so Willham recruits Lambert to douse his flames, which would kill the Tree King. Lambert is unable to kill the Tree King himself, so he returns to the screeners to get their help. Willham agrees to help him, so he and Lambert fly back up to the Tree King's face, where they are joined by Mill. The three of them extinguish the Tree King's flames, killing the Tree King, and they help treat injuries and bury the deceased Droogles.

Death

An unknown amount of time later, Willham is sitting in the Guardians' HQ alone, as every other inhabitant of the void had vanished in a burst of light. When Temte Mapleleaf appears outside the HQ, Willham is shocked to see that she's still alive. Willham tells her that everyone else had died, and he asks her to take his powers so he could finally rest. Temte agrees to his terms, so he releases his smoke from his body, allowing it to inhabit Temte, and she crushes his glasses. These glasses are eventually deleted when Temte erases the void.

Quotes

“Alright people lets go through this shortlist! We only have thirteen characters to go through, so let’s make this quick!” –Willham “Alright! First up we have Nolan! Scrapped without a personality, but he did have a best friend named Alana, who we’ll be getting to shortly.” –Willham “Up first we have Fiora! Not much is known about her other than she popped into the void one day along with Lambert. In my eyes they’re a package deal but I know the devs see differently.” –Willham “Reborn? No, you don’t mean-” –Willham “Oh no you don’t.” –Willham “I’ve burnt down one village; I’ll burn down another!” –Willham “So, you three think you can run around doing anything your heart desires? Not on my watch.” –Willham “And what makes you think I want to see the person who killed me?” –Willham “And what’s to stop the three of you from turning on me when we get to her?” –Willham “I have no idea how you know what that means, but yes. It looks to me like that’s what happened.” –Willham “Alright fine. Where are they now?” –Willham “If we don’t know where they are, then why bother looking for them? You all never should’ve come back!” –Willham “No. I’m not in need of any bodyguards. You go find your friends on your own, and I’ll figure something out.” –Willham “Our team? Mayo, have you forgotten that none of these people should exist right now?” –Willham “We have to destroy it! None of them should be alive, and you’re lucky I left these ones for you. Now, Rocko and Jinxy, take Fiora and come with me.” –Willham “Sorry, but who are you and what was your goal here?” –Willham “Because that was part of our terms! Don’t you remember why I led you here in the first place?” –Willham “What do you mean, ‘we’? I’m perfectly capable of fighting this thing!” –Willham “If anyone should be dying for this, it’s me.” –Willham “I know, I am. But this is how I’m gonna end this.” –Willham “Mayo, no one here ever hated you. You were the only friend I ever had when the Guardians were put to sleep.” –Willham “So, what’s your side to this story? You killed me twice now, so this is the least you can do to repay me.” –Willham “So, you were cut from a game, sent down here, and Mayo resurrected you? She was rambling about wanting to give us a better life. What was that all about?” –Willham “But Mayo was always suck a sucker for the rules. Why would she want something like this to happen? All these people, ripped from their sleep only to be flooded with memories that aren’t even theirs?” –Willham “What about Dinofrog and Drakon? How were they supposed to help us be happier?” –Willham “How do we stop the Droogles?” –Willham “Nobody move, or you get erased too! Which one of you sparked this coup?” –Willham “Would you like us to deal with him, or is he all yours?” –Willham “Alright. Let Joe make this last announcement, and I’ll be ready to go.” –Willham

“Aly, we heard Joe’s announcement. What are you doing back in the void?” –Willham “Close, Alana. This is Shadow Mari. Maybe you could accelerate the process with a beam?” –Willham “It might be worth the risk. If we could have Alana in the field, then we could make it to the game world if we absolutely had to.” –Willham “Rogue code. GenericChallenge still needs to be brought down here, so Alana could be the perfect plant for the job!” –Willham “You might not see them around anywhere, but when you go back to Belleview, look for a Raposa with a pink and black checkered pattern. They’ve been causing a bunch of chaos with the villagers in both realms. If you see them, come back to the void and let us know so we can wrangle them up.” –Willham “You’ve snuck around the void more times than anyone else in our history. If anyone could sneak past them, it’s you.” –Willham “Thank you for your help Alana. I’ll be sure to let Flash know what’s happening in case something comes up and we need to pull you out.” –Willham

“And I’m Willhem. I’m one of the screeners here. Why have you come to the void?” –Willham “Follow me.” –Willham “Miles, I said follow me. Rocko, Flash, you come as well.” –Willham “You have a time machine?” –Willham “I don’t have the patience to deal with a used character, much less a used character who has time travel at his disposal. You’ve seen the color vat, now it’s time for you to leave. Since we don’t have the Shadow Hole anymore, and you don’t have a mantra to use, go to the Drawn to Life Village. There you’ll find a Shadow Stone. Use it to teleport back home and then destroy it. I will hone in on its signal, collect the shards, and then you won’t ever have to deal with us again. Good day.” –Willham “I thought I told you to leave!” –Willham “You never destroyed the Shadow Stone! You idiot, you’ve doomed your realm!” –Willham

“Do you know where he is?” –Willham “So, you’re the ‘we’ he was talking about the first time he was here. Why do you need our help if you have time machines of your own?” –Willham “Is it just you, or are there more people that had time machines?” –Willham “Alright then, where should we go to get you three a time machine?” –Willham “Jowee! Kamalah! Other Raposa! Let’s go!” –Willham “If push comes to shove, I have a sneaking suspicion that we’ll be able to find her in Wilfre’s Lair at the end of Shadow City.” –Willham “Sorry about that you guys. Things are really tense in the void right now, so we had to put on that act for Joe.” –Willham “Oh, trust me, It’s gonna be nice to have a break from all the chaos. Plus, if we get a chance to finally rematch Salem Rose, it’ll be worth the trouble.” –Willham “Can I ask you a question?” –Willham “That’s what I wanted to ask you about actually. You see, when I look at someone, I’m able to see any code or art associated with them. You don’t have either.” –Willham “Well, in the realm I come from, everyone has either code or art, and most people have both. Even in your realm, people like Kamalah, Jowee, and Boss all have code.” –Willham “I don’t know, but it worries me a bit.” –Willham “Well, we’re on a manhunt. Salem Rose attacked our realm and destroyed a lot of places in yours, so we plan to kill him.” –Willham “I can erase things.” –Willham “I never should’ve let you get your hands on that stone.” –Willham “For now, let’s just take them back to the Grove and we can send everyone back home from there.” –Willham “Yes, he is. We don’t have to worry about him anymore.” –Willham “Of course, and likewise. Salem Rose did just as much damage to us as he did to you.” –Willham “Once again, likewise. If you need our help again, don’t hesitate to give us a visit.” –Willham “Well, it’s time for me to get back to the void. Where’s the sword?” –Willham

“For one, the Guardians died. Salem Rose killed them when he attacked us.” –Willham “How much have you looked for the Droogle Leader already?” –Willham “Damn. Even with all those trees gone, there’s still no sign of him anywhere.” –Willham “Don’t worry. I made sure to shoot high enough so that it wouldn’t delete him.” –Willham “Good luck you guys. Get Miah back here in one piece.” –Willham “Do you have any idea how much trouble you’ve caused us? All the stuff you stole, everyone you repurposed, all the information you leaked? I’m surprised the world hasn’t folded in on itself yet!” –Willham “Are you just going to ignore all the damage you’ve done to the realms? The only good thing I can think of is you giving those dolls to the carnival. The Angry Baki Mask appeared in Jangala, half the residents of Rapoville are from the void, and you’ve told Deadwood everything about us! Do I need to be any more specific?” –Willham “Why didn’t you stop when she died?” –Willham “We can’t. Not after how long you left them in the realms. They’re fully integrated at this point. If we tried to pull them out, then who knows what could happen.” –Willham “You were going to die in Miah’s place?” –Willham “They better not be, or we can find Miah on our own.” –Willham “I did notice they didn’t have any of our code making them up. It was almost like they were dropped in by some outside force. Modding maybe? Creation Heroes? Fanfiction?” –Willham “Now, where’s Miah?” –Willham “Ready as we’ll ever be. It was nice to meet you Miah!” –Willham “What the hell is going on here?!” –Willham “What did you do while we were gone? Less than a day and everything’s gone to hell!!!” –Willham “What the hell is this thing?” –Willham “Thank god. Lambert! Over here!” –Willham “We can’t attack this guy at all. Do you think you could try extinguishing his flames again?” –Willham “There we go. Now that bitch is gone for good.” –Willham “Of course, what’s on your mind Pot?” –Willham “Salem Rose is dead for good. He’s not gonna come back no matter what.” –Willham “Alright, fine. Let’s get you back home Pot” –Willham

“Holy shit, someone else is alive.” –Willham “Not that I know of. I’m really sorry FTR.” –Willham “FemaleTemplate_Raposa. That’s your name, right?” –Willham “You’re corporeal, and I’m technically not, which means I won’t die.” –Willham “You take my place as a screener, do whatever you want with the powers, and I’ll finally be able to die.” –Willham

Trivia

• The name "Willham" was Isaac's name in beta builds of Drawn to Life
