In the MMORPG Tibia, which has been developed in Regensburg for over 25 years, there is a very special player. In 2023, he died a total of 15,000 times, which is about 42 times a day. The player is a walking legend in the community, and very few know if there is actually a person behind the character.
What is behind the deaths? On the site Nabbot.xyz, special statistics for Tibia were published. The charts show, for example, what share certain classes make up in the player base.
One chart stands out because one player breaks the scale. Among the characters with the most deaths, there is a top position that all other placements lag behind significantly:
- 1st Place: Baby Boy with 15,287 deaths
- 2nd Place: Kiki Camarena with 1,320 deaths
- 3rd Place: Lbomb Ocexandebra One with 1,229 deaths
- 4th Place: Lipe Rushz with 1,214 deaths
- 5th Place: Suato Bank with 927 deaths
The player named Baby Boy has more deaths on his account than all the other players in the listed statistics combined. He is on the server called Antica and is a great mystery even among his server colleagues (via reddit.com).
If you are looking for an MMORPG in the style of Tibia, the following game might be for you:
Tibia players are not sure if it is a macro
Why does the player do that? Unfortunately, it is not known what the player is thinking. On tibiaring.com, it can be seen that the player continues as before in 2024.
Many players do not even know whether Baby Boy is a player or a macro. YouTuber Tibia Papo tells that Baby Boy writes a bit strangely, like a little baby. But this suggests that there is actually a human behind it.
In the comments, a user writes that he was once able to get Baby Boy to sing a song by David Bowie with him. This also suggests that Baby Boy is a real person.
One player even wants to know who is behind Baby Boy. He writes in the reddit forum that he would not want to reveal the user unless money is involved. Another user, on the other hand, writes that he should hold back on the revelation, or Tibia’s greatest mystery would be in danger.
The team from TibiaSecrets adds:
- Baby Boy would respond every time he was contacted. The user can even answer specific questions about the game, which suggests that an experienced player is behind it.
- He is also an experienced tutor with 5 stars. It takes years to achieve this status, as numerous inquiries from beginners must be answered and bugs reported to reach this status.
- Often, Baby Boy would stay in his role and respond with baby sounds. This would drive players so crazy that they kill him so often.
It is likely that Baby Boy is a role-player. The user is married to a character named Baby Sitter, who is currently at level 75. Baby Boy is only at level 20 as he loses experience points every time he dies.
There is even a player in Tibia who kills himself on purpose to lose levels. This allows him to complete a quest repeatedly to achieve a specific achievement: MMORPG player kills his own hero 300 times, drops from level 200 to 6 – Achieves a success that no one has been able to attain for 10 years
