Chance was born as the second child of [[Connie Lobdell]] and [[Ruple Smith]] in Kenai, Alaska on September 20, 1990 under the name "Patrick Smith." From birth, Chance faced [[Health and Appearance|numerous health complications]], including being born underweight, with only one kidney, with an undeveloped lung, scoliosis, and various other health issues. These challenges were likely due to Chance being born prematurely, reportedly at just 26 weeks (6 months) into Connie's pregnancy<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15uN8k8cECs&t=1086s</ref> (''not'' at 16 weeks, which is impossible<ref>https://www.uab.edu/news/health-medicine/uab-hospital-delivers-record-breaking-premature-baby</ref> and is often falsely recounted by many people), which would've been so early that he would have not yet developed brown fat in his skin, leaving his skin somewhat transparent. Exactly why he was born so prematurely is unclear - it's often speculated that Chance may have FASD due to Connie allegedly using drugs and alcohol during pregnancy. However, [[Gordon Wilkins|Connie's stepfather]] recalled her as not being a drinker,<ref name=":2">https://youtu.be/hB6t6_WyOlI</ref> and Chance does not exhibit many of the typical signs of FASD, such as a smooth upper lip. It's more likely that Chance's premature birth was due to other factors, such as genetic issues or the use of drugs other than alcohol which did not result in the typical signs of FASD. | Chance was born as the second child of [[Connie Lobdell]] and [[Ruple Smith]] in Kenai, Alaska on September 20, 1990 under the name "Patrick Smith."

Chance's brother, the couple's first child, was taken away by the state of Alaska<ref name=":0">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BsEzaQsuMfs</ref> before Chance was born, and Chance was taken away from Connie's custody as soon as he was born.<ref>https://youtu.be/hB6t6_WyOlI?t=1091</ref> The exact reason why isn't known, but it's likely due to the fact that Connie couldn't take care of them due to her being heavily disabled. He was then entrusted to his grandmother, [[Sally Arntzen]], and was relocated to somewhere around Atlanta. Sally, who was married to [[Gordon Wilkins]] at the time, made the decision to change his name to Chance Wilkins soon after.<ref name=":0" /> At the age of four, his father Ruple, back in Alaska, was arrested for raping a 14-year-old girl on a bike path. The story of how Ruple got arrested is a great testament to the theory that Cyraxx's low intelligence runs in the family, as Ruple actually managed to entirely get himself caught, as he called the police on ''himself'' saying that a sketch of the perpetrator looked like him (likely to throw the police off him), and after searching his house, the police found a bike with tracks that matched those from the crime scene. Ruple's actions also further continued a family history of abuse as Sally married Chance's grandfather (''not Gordon Wilkins'') when she was 14.[[File:20ish.png|thumb|347x347px|A photo of chance from around ~2010]]After moving to Atlanta, Chance then moved to Lake Wales, Florida | Chance's brother, the couple's first child, was taken away by the state of Alaska<ref name=":0">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BsEzaQsuMfs</ref> before Chance was born, and Chance was taken away from Connie's custody as soon as he was born.<ref>https://youtu.be/hB6t6_WyOlI?t=1091</ref> The exact reason why isn't known, but it's likely due to the fact that Connie couldn't take care of them due to her being heavily disabled.

Gordon later divorced Sally, partially due to the stress of adopting Chance<ref name=":2" /> as he did not even want children to begin with.[[File:20ish.png|thumb|347x347px|A photo of chance from around ~2010]]After moving to Atlanta, Chance then moved to Lake Wales, Florida<ref name=":0" /> in 2002 after Sally learned Gordon had moved there with the pretext that she wanted Chance to be "closer to his father."<ref>https://youtu.be/hB6t6_WyOlI?t=665</ref> He attended Roosevelt Academy,<ref>https://odysee.com/@UnofficialCyraxArchive:b/2017-2-16-Save-Roosevelt-(Facebook):b</ref> and presumably around this time, he was in Cub Scouts.<ref>https://odysee.com/@UnofficialCyraxArchive:b/2012-6-29-Inside-The-Shadows-Episode-1-Part-2:3?&t=142</ref> On Chance's 17th birthday in 2007,<ref>https://www.myheritage.com/names/connie_lobdell</ref> Connie passed away in a house fire. For reasons that remain somewhat unclear, Sally, Chance, and [[William]] (one Sally's sons from a previous marriage) moved to Akron, Ohio around 2008-2009, around when Cyraxx turned 18. Chance started attending Garfield High when he moved to Akron. Information about Cyraxx's time in Garfield is extremely limited, with the only people giving much insight into his time there being [[Elspeth|Kat]] and [[Blind Billy]], who were presumably his only friends. His friends led to him finding a passion for [[music]] and [[dancing]], and Kat introduced him to artists like Linkin Park. Cyraxx did poorly in school due to his [[Intelligence|intellectual disabilities]], but despite this, there is no evidence that he was put in any special education classes or given any disability services. | ||
On February 14th, 2012, an [[Kansas Incident|incident occurred between Cyraxx and Sally]] after he told Sally that he would undertake a journey from Ohio to Kansas by walking and hitch-hiking in order to meet a girl that later turned out to be a catfish. Sally objected to this obviously stupid plan, causing Cyraxx to have a temper tantrum and physically assault her as soon as she had her back turned on him. William intervened and called the police, and Cyraxx was arrested and charged with domestic violence. He accepted a guilty plea deal that reduced his charge to disorderly conduct and he received a suspended 30 days jail sentence on the condition that he attends mandatory anger-management therapy and have a mental health assessment.<ref>https://courts.akronohio.gov/AkronCaseInformation/cases/criminal/12-CR-01598-001</ref> Fun fact, after the incident Sally was advised to use PBS ([[wikipedia:Positive_behavior_support|Positive Behavior Support]]) on him (a therapy technique meant for people with behavioral disorders) and Cyraxx heard this and thought that the television network PBS was coming to his house to film a documentary on him. | On February 14th, 2012, an [[Kansas Incident|incident occurred between Cyraxx and Sally]] after he told Sally that he would undertake a journey from Ohio to Kansas by walking and hitch-hiking in order to meet a girl that later turned out to be a catfish.
