The early days of Zisteau consisted of February 2020-Early March 2020. Prankware intended to use an old spawnbase from November 2019, and originally planned to call the base "Padotown". However, that plan was quickly abandoned because the spawnbase was extremely to the +X highway. Prankware made a discord for what was at that time still a group with ~3-5 members. He traveled out to ~300k overworld to build what was going to be Zisteau 1. Zisteau 1 started out with big intentions, and as the group slowly grew in numbers, those plans got bigger and bigger.  

After hearing about the newer Donkey Dupe, Prankware started heading to spawn and making outposts along the way, one of which he called "Point Donkey", as it was his only source of donkeys at the time. This was useful, as the dupe active at the time was a variation of the many donkey dupes. Prankware then made a base with a skeleton grinder to use as a Team Trees spawnbase.

== Duplication Efforts ==
Soon after, Noah3j gave Prankware coordinates to where he would begin duping along with 8 others in the group. The group created a small stash but their wealth was short lived after the stash was quickly found, and they had to start over from scratch. Prankware attempted to grow Zisteau's wealth by continuing to dupe at a base known as Point Tortoise. He also stumbled upon a small stash owned by bebeli555.  This made Zisteau significantly more wealthy.

== Downfall ==
[[File:Zisteau1.1.png|thumb|Zisteau 1 in its final days. The large acacia and terracotta house belongs to TheRedFenix. Prankware's House cannot be seen in this screenshot.]]As a result of a combination of factors, namely: the session id exploit, growing inactivity amongst members, lack of interest in 2b2t, and the announcement that the groups main base Zisteau I would be abandoned due to it being too close to spawn. Prankware traveled out via nether to around 600k overworld however died on the way and lost many items. Zistaeu's activity would dwindle after this point and soon the group disappeared into the annals of the server's history.




== Bases ==

=== Zisteau 1 ===
[[File:Zisteaugroupphoto.png|thumb|A group photo taken by prankware. To the right is Pitboss21.]] Zisteau 1 was active for a short period of time until Prankware officially decided that Zisteau 1 was too close to spawn to be safe. This was supported by the fact that Zisteau 1 had an open nether portal and was roughly only 8k blocks away from a nether highway. There was never anything huge or outstanding at Zisteau 1, except for the housing, specifically TheRedFenix's House and Prankware's unfinished house. The base had a large amount of planning put into it, and a fair few of those plans are being implemented into Zlossea, the group's next planned base. Some of those plans included a banner museum, a spleef arena, aqueducts, horse roads, a large storage facility made mostly out of quartz, and a large gold farm.

== Past Relations ==
* Avalonian Republic/ The White Lotus Society: Closely allied as result of Noah3j's leadership role in the Avalonian Republic.
