The Holders
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
"The Holders" is a series of posts gathered from 7chan's /x/ board that tells of an epic quest to gather a shitload of random items that, when brought together, are supposed to end the world. Or something. People think it's serious business.

[edit] Information
There's a website that someone made specifically for this series, namely this shit, which somehow finds all the posts on 7chan and puts them up in a database. It's supposed to be creepy, and a lot of it deals with people going bat-shit crazy when they look for or find these items, but only idiots get scared of shit like this. It's an interesting read if you want to waste some time that you'll never get back.
[edit] History?
Apparently there was some blind guy that they found these documents next to (which is retarded because they were supposed to be invisible by means of -no joke- a magic thumbtack, but it apparently isn't retarded that the guy was blind, fuckwit) when they found his body, which was being eaten by cats. Then some shit happened with his body disappearing and never being seen again while in transit to the government, go figure. There are supposedly 538 of these magic items, and if you get one, then you are doomed forever, they say. The story is a blatant ripoff of House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski.
[edit] Some of the Items
- Aforementioned thumbtack, which makes shit invisible.
- The Knife. It's sharp.
- The Cup. Never runs out of what is put in it; probably being used in Ireland.
- The Wolf. A serial killer in a green fursuit that follows you around. Who the fuck would want this?
- The friggin' knowledge of the aforementioned items.
- A tattoo on some whore's tits.
- An eye from a guy like the grim reaper.
- A music box from a cripple.
- A head.
- An urn.
- A dead baby.
- Candlejack. Don't say his na
- Some money.
- A... look. This is fucking retarded. I give up.
[edit] How to become a Seeker
A seeker is one who wastes their life looking for these magic things. All you have to do is be retarded, really. It's not hard. If you go crazy, though, then you'll never die and instead waste the rest of eternity protecting your "precious." However, a common recommendation is that an aspiring seeker would be more useful by becoming an hero instead.
Summary of these "Holders" is tl;dr.
