Praetor

This article is too large or off-topic. It has been suggested that we smash its Heart level down to 15% and split off the pieces into their own article. Discuss on the talk page.

Note on Credibility: Praetor has been deemed to be an unreliable narrator for the following reasons: • The members are all infamous attention seekers, and merely got in touch with Chris with the sole intent of piggybacking off his notoriety on the internet. • The members will occasionally say edgy and disgusting things purely for shock value. Bear this in mind, and use healthy skepticism when taking statements from the subject being discussed.

Praetor (sometimes referred to as "The Praetors") is a group of edgy enablers who came in contact with Chris to produce and sell Sonichu-themed products with Chris's permission, giving him a cut of the profits in exchange. Most of Praetor's members live around Goochland, Virginia, a town 55 miles (89 km) southeast of Ruckersville. In October 2020, photos were discovered of the group posing with Chris at a Chinese restaurant on Instagram. Although Praetor is "officially partnered" with Chris, it remains unclear when and how they first got in contact with him, and the full extent of their relationship is unknown. In the photo of Chris and Praetor at the restaurant, there is a laptop with a label that appears to read "Goochland High School", suggesting that they were born sometime in the early to mid-2000s.

The earliest sign of Chris starting to work with Praetor was on September 22nd when he mentioned meeting with 'new associates' on The Place . On 19 October 2020, the Praetor group posted their announcement of a collaboration with Chris on Instagram and Twitter, showing Chris along with two young women and a man, who are tagged on the account on Instagram. Chris also held a sermon with the audience being the Praetors at the Goochland Public Library, which Chris uploaded on 8 November 2020. A picture of a member of Praetor purchasing a stun gun and a Pikachu mask was posted on 15 November 2020, which Praetor later claimed to be a promotion for sales of autographed tasers. In February 2021, Chris wished to borrow a taser from Praetor to tase his collection of quartz crystals to activate the Dimensional Merge (with Chris also considering using the taser on himself, an idea Praetor objected to out of concern for Chris's safety), though Chris's taser plans seemingly fell through.

Praetor was a target of harassment by the Watchmen, who considered them a group of Idea Guy-esque trolls. Many rumors about the group were subsequently spread by Watchmen leader Naught, Watchmen member MKRNightVee, Larry Vaughn, and Bella following the release of a clip of a call between Chris, Praetor leader Caden Peck, and many Watchmen members.

On 29 July 2021, a four-minute call, where Chris admitted to having sexual intercourse with his mother, was leaked. It was soon revealed that the caller was Isabella Loretta Janke, who has collaborated with Praetor in the past and may arguably be considered a member.

In Jail Letter - 18 January 2022, Chris mentioned that he wished to get back in contact with Praetor. Later that year, Praetor restocked their Etsy shop with new items, including art pieces Chris mailed to them from jail. They are the only outside individuals with whom Chris has had confirmed contact following the sealing of his case in August 2022.

Known members

“	In the group, Annie is very much psychically able. Owen is like the magician of the group; among his skill set, he can also make a variety of special teas and such that can be like potions and elixirs. Cabell is also psychically inclined, but she's the artist. Caden is very open-minded, and the brains and business.	”

Caden Peck

Caden Peck
Information
Name	Caden Peck
Date of birth	(2002-09-27) September 27, 2002
Also known as	Praetor tinyhorse01
Gender	Male
Saga	Praetor, Jail

Caden Peck (tinyhorse01) is a co-founder and the leader of Praetor, as well as one of Chris's "business associates". According to Chris in the 2021 Jail Call, Caden is responsible for scanning his work to later publish. A few leaked DMs between Chris and Larry Vaughn also revealed plans to create a Discord server. Caden was also in charge of the Praetor accounts which had directly interacted with Chris.

He was also the sole Praetor member involved in the Taser Call, being accompanied by several Watchmen members like The WCT and MKR.

Chris stated in a 12 July 2021 chat that Caden was one of the people he had asked for help with getting together a posse for "sharing and protection" at Everfree Northwest, as Jacob Sockness had previously declared that he'd also attend the event.

In a jail letter from July 2022, Chris claimed that Caden was helping him raise a $150,000 fundraiser so that he can go back home after he has been released from jail. After Kenneth Engelhardt had criticized Caden's actions, Chris berated Kenneth, telling him that he shouldn't be "judging Caden in that vain[sic]".

Annibelle Ikenberry

Annibelle "Annie" Ikenberry (annirenee) is an erocosplayer and OnlyFans camgirl who was recruited by Praetor in order to "lure in" Chris. In a 17 February 2021 discussion with the Watchmen, Chris confessed that he had feelings for her.

Owen Sundstrom

Owen Sundstrom (owen_sundstrom) is a co-founder of Praetor, according to Larry Vaughn. He was present at the Goochland Library Sermon, where he was photographed posing with Chris. He also appears to be the photographer who took the picture of Chris and Praetor at the Chinese restaurant.

Unknown woman

The blonde woman pictured standing in the group photo with Chris (see above). There was an Instagram tag associated with the photo, but it has been censored by the CWCki due to Praetor having mistagged it with an unrelated account. Watchmen members misidentified the woman as Bella when Chris told Kyle about the animated intro she made for him.^{[citation needed]} She may be the "Cabell" mentioned by Chris, assuming that was not a codename for Bella.

Isabella Loretta Janke

Main article: Isabella Loretta Janke

Isabella Loretta "Bella" Janke collaborated with Praetor to make the animated Chris-Chan Sonichu Introduction video and had an unclear relationship with them going forward. Bella claims that she cut ties with them early in 2021. Chris claimed in a jail letter that Bella was not an active participant in Praetor's sales and that her primary interaction with them was in working on the animated intro. Unlike the core Praetor members, Bella does not live in Virginia, and she has never interacted with Chris in real life.

Golden Church of Sonichu

Main article: Golden Church of Sonichu

Golden Church of Sonichu was a Discord server created by Praetor. Customers gained access to it after purchasing a Golden Sonichu medallion from their Etsy page.

“

NOTE: When the Golden Medallions were first introduced, they functioned as a ticket into Christine's Golden Sonichu Discord, the beginnings of her attempt at crowdfunding an actual church. This is no longer the case.

”

The server sat in limbo following Chris's arrest, with users primarily posting about Chris's antics in jail.

Praetor and Tasers

Main article: Taser

What do they plan to do with that taser?

“	we had a whole discussion about why it's a bad idea.	”

On 15 November 2020, Praetor posted a screenshot of an online shopping service's shopping cart - in the cart was a Pikachu mask and a VIPERTEK VTS-989 560 BV stun gun. Praetor stated:

“	As Praetor, we always work hard to produce the best videos we can. Good works are in progress!	”

Praetor later claimed this was for promotion of sales of autographed tasers.

In February 2021, Chris stated that he wanted to borrow one of Praetor's tasers to stun his Gate Crystal and Celestial Key quartz crystals in an attempt to activate the Dimensional Merge.

Watchmen leader Naught then created a vicious rumor, stating that Larry Vaughn was in on a plot with Praetor when he shared bits of a conversation that he had with Chris regarding his intention to shock his crystals.

In 2022, Praetor began selling tasers previously autographed by Chris on their Etsy shop, supposedly for the purpose of simulating "zapping to the extreme" for buyers. Those were posted with the following description:

“

Recent Christorians may recall the Taser Incident, where the Praetor group while working with Christine posted images of tasers onto their respective Instagrams and Twitters. Through leaked chats and discussion, it was hypothesized that the Praetor group was planning to tase Chris on video. This lead to a flurry of drama and doxing, and the tasers were forgotten. The tasers had originally been intended for sale, as signed ones would be put out for purchase. To avoid negative attention, they were boxed and stored away to wait until the smoke cleared. Now, these zappy little buggers are available for sale once again! Each Taser is hand signed by Christine herself, emblazoned with her autograph and the iconic phrase "Zappin' it Up!" Per Christine's suggestion. Now you too can zap it to the extreme. Handle with care, while these are collectables they can be recharged and may have residual charge left over. Package comes with: -Autographed Taser -Charging cable

”

A post from their Golden Church of Sonichu server has them also promoting flamethrowers.

Etsy shop

Main article: OfficialCWCmart

On 11 December 2020, Chris advertised for their Etsy shop, linking to medallions produced by the group, explaining that he was currently unable to produce the medallions himself and so outsourced the production to Praetor, mentioning he would get a cut of the profits in exchange. In February 2021, Chris mentioned he had been paid $400 out of $6,000 Praetor had made.

The account on Etsy is also named Praetor, and they are the owner of OfficialCWCmart. As of 15 December, they have sold 151 medallions, and are considered a bestseller.
