Pootie Shoe

Pootie_Shoe is a teenaged livestreamer with a massive following. He regularly streams Mythic Quest and is a massive fan of the game.

But he also game-tests for MQ competitors, Cold Alliance Studios. Poppy comes to realise that Mythic Quest Studios is not just an unprofessional environment, but a deeply flawed one, because of the difference in the way the two teams treat Pootie.

Late in the series, he figures out a way to hack into the Mythic Quest Studios servers to take control of the NPC, the Masked Man. Because of the popularity of the usually-friendly NPC, he is able to create considerable chaos amongst those players that engage with him. He is unmasked as the hacker behind the Masked Man following an in-game death battle between him and Ian, in which he is defeated. Everyone in the world sees his identity because Poppy hacks into his computer's camera just as Ian defeats him.
