Catha'Vi 3D model

*See Catha'Vi's YWOT Wiki page here.

Catha'Vi is an OWoT user who joined early 2024.

They are known mainly for their discord server which they call "Moth Cult", and their OC "Catha'Vi" They have recently closed the "Moth Cult" that they based their name around.

When they first joined OWOT, they formed their entire personality around their OC and their "moth cult" discord server. This understandably annoyed many people, however Catha'Vi began to ragebait and annoy people more frequently in response to this. This behavior spread to the OWOT discord server, but recently their habit of ragebaiting people has died down significantly.

They have expressed that they genuinely want to become/live as their OC Catha'Vi, or at least something similar to it. This has spawned long debates with many users, such as d9eoead.

As of 2025, the "moth cult" has been shut down. This is due to a variety of factors, including Catha'Vi identifying more with their OC, and them wishing not to have the responsibilities of managing a community.

They are one of four members of an endogenic system.

History

Tulpamancy

Around July 2024, Catha'Vi would spam/interrupt chat as an anon with the nickname "tulpamancy" spamming nonsensical messages. This was done purely out of boredom, and nothing said should be taken seriously. However, multiple others have impersonated this character, and it should be noted Catha'Vi hasn't been the tulpamancy anon since the first time.

YWOT

Moth Cult

Scripts

Roombas

Catha'vi's roomba on YWOT(Sped up 30x)

In their early days on the site, Catha'Vi was known for creating ASCII roombas which would move around the canvas and delete everything in their paths.

These roombas were initially deployed on Your World of Text, where they were seen as a nuisance by much of the site's users. Catha'vi's roombas were inspired by an earlier script from YWOT which was also abhorred by the userbase.

The roombas suffered a similar level of backlash when they were eventually ported over to OWOT. On one instance, FP himself ordered Catha'vi to shut down their script, complaining that they needlessly erased text and left ugly patterns all over Spawn.

/movienight

/movienight was a world which hosted scheduled broadcasts of various movies.

It played films at ~5 fps using a grid of 80x25 characters. Graphics were initially rendered using colored full blocks(█), but later updated to a combination of half blocks(▀, ▄) and cell background colors for double the resolution. Subtitles were included to make up for a lack of sound, though they were often out of sync with the scenes.

/movienight hosted several screenings throughout 2024, featuring movies such as:

  • Shrek
  • The Mario Movie
  • The Minecraft Movie
  • etc.

While the world was active, a voting system existed but was purely cosmetic. There was also a Discord server dedicated to the page.

/movienight shut down in August of 2024, but Catha'vi hinted one year later that the world might return sometime soon.

/movienight2

On August 18th, 2025, Catha'vi created a sequel to /movienight which rendered footage using octant characters. This newer world animated on a smaller grid(40x12 characters) in order to improve the frame rate(and also because octants allowed for higher resolutions to be achieved using fewer characters).

Loading the Minecraft Movie(August 19th, 2025)

OWOT-YWOT Bridge

*See also: OWOT-YWOT_Bridge.

In August of 2024, Catha'Vi (then Moth Cult Leader) launched a script that synced edits between YWOT and OWOT within a small portal. They later created another bridge that allowed YWOT users to interact with OWOT's Global Chat.

Unlike the Warpserver and Fastclient, which were used to spam YWOT without the community's knowledge, Catha'Vi's OWOT-YWOT bridge was able to create an open, two-way interaction between the two text canvases. Reception to the portals were generally positive on both websites, though there was some backlash from the YWOT community over the insertion of OWOT chat into YWOT.

The creation of the OWOT-YWOT Bridge was commemorated by Lemuria in the September 7th Issue of Our World of News. FP also complimented Catha'Vi for their creation, citing it as an improvement over their previous script: the roomba. Mr.Guy commented on the bridge and compared it to the New York-Dublin Portal.

Mainpage Visualization

On February 28th, 2025, Catha'vi used a python script to form a 2000x2000 tile(roughly 250x250 in coordinates) map of the Mainpage, where each tile is represented by a pixel.

Catha'vi

On April 5th, 2024, Catha'Vi realized that their Discord server needed a deity to worship. To this end, they created the Moth God Catha'Vi by photoshopping a deer's skull onto a moth's body.

Catha'Vi then created a detailed render of the moth deity with orange fur and four arms. This design has since been used in multiple animations and was the subject of many pieces of fan art by the Moth Cult Discord.

Catha'Vi shows great pride in their OC and frequently advertises it on the Our World of Text Discord server.

Note: The Skull 3d model is taken from https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/deer-skull-7c0b25f9067f4503b704fc88b304137d. A new skull model is being developed.

Catha'Vi Suit

In July 2024, Catha'Vi revealed that they have been working on an IRL costume of Catha'Vi (the OC).

As of October progress has only been made on the moth god's skull, which was modeled on Blender and printed out piece by piece using a local 3D printer.

The rest of Catha'Vi's body will be made entirely from brown fabric, though Catha'Vi once humored the idea of a functioning mechanical tail.

Only the skull mask was planned to be made, the rest of the suit was a lie (lol).


Catha'Vi Game

As of October 12th, 2024, Moth Cult Leader has been working on a game named Super Catha'Vi World.

Reputation Within the Community

Much of the community was initially unnerved by Catha'Vi's moth obsession and would frequently :wastebasket: react their messages. Likewise, Catha'Vi's deployment of roombas into OWOT was met with just as much backlash as it did in YWOT, with FP himself calling the script out for being annoying.

But in introducing a series of more beneficial scripts, and by improving their art, Catha'Vi was able to gradually gain the approval of the userbase.

As of 2025 they have become a respected member of the community, and multiple users even supported their bid for admin.

However some users are still distrustful of their moth-related antics.
