Lore & Background
The source states that Dema is a fictional location set within Trench, ruled by nine bishops. Their names are Nico, Andre, Lisden, Keons, Reisdro, Sacarver, Nills, Vetomo, and Listo. The chief bishop, Nico, was revealed by lead singer Tyler Joseph to be Blurryface, the personification of his insecurities from the band's previous album. The bishops are opposed by a group called the Banditos, who aim to liberate the people of Dema. The Banditos adopt the color yellow, specifically 0xFCE300, which the bishops are unable to see, instead seeing it as grey. No additional information about Sacarver's specific actions, history, or role within the bishop hierarchy is given in the source.

The source does not provide any narrative or story involving Sacarver as an individual character. It only lists Sacarver as one of the nine bishops of Dema and describes the general conflict between the bishops and the Banditos. The Banditos seek to liberate the people of Dema, and the bishops cannot see the color yellow (0xFCE300), which the Banditos adopt. No specific events, quotes, or turning points involving Sacarver are mentioned.
