Have you ever seen someone with a purple name in chat and wondered who they are? Every RPF Veteran has a story, and this is the fourth edition of the Vet Spotlight column, where we take you back in time to tell the story of our esteemed veterans! Today, we’re telling you the story of the rebel who, out of our Advisors, likes to pop up in announcements every now and then: Perry.
Perry is an RPF Advisor, and was a dedicated troop achieving up to the rank of Deputy Commander (then’s Second-In-Command).

His story began five years ago, when he was recruited in May 2017 by RPF Legend Silverburg. Perry had been recruited when he showed interest in coming back to Club Penguin Armies after spending years in the upper ranks of the Dark Warriors.
When Club Penguin closed down, Perry joined RPF in 2017 despite not experiencing any tournaments as an RPF troop due to the fact that none were being hosted that year. However, he still managed to find joy and interest in the Operations hosted every week.
Unfortunately, this continued till 2018. The same year, he was offered the rank of Rebel Commander, but refused it as he had initially planned to retire.

Fast forward to 2021, two years later, Perry earned the title of RPF Icon.

After his retirement, Perry became an RPF Advisor, talking to the RCs and HCOM, discussing various war strategies, finding things to improve on and just general discussion (sometimes just pinging all of them for absolutely no reason)!
Though now his contributions as an Advisor are primarily behind-the-scenes, they are no less valuable: he remains an important figure in shaping modern RPF affairs! The greatest lesson he has learnt is internet safety and he thinks that RPF and CP Armies should teach everyone about that.
Thank you to Perry for all that you’ve done for RPF and CPA, and for letting us tell your story! To end off this edition, we have one word to summarise, brought to you by our dear Perry:
Thank you rebels for reading along and learning more about Perry! Stay tuned for future additions to learn more about the Veterans of RPF, and their story behind their rank.
