Philza is a MCYT content creator. He is well known for being a member of the Dream SMP and the QSMP.

He is also notable for having an extremely long-running hardcore Minecraft world. After five years, he died to a baby zombie, which made him gain a lot of popularity; Philza and baby zombies are now somewhat of a fandom inside joke. His current (2023) hardcore world is his season four and has its own massive builds, lore, and fanworks.

He is a member of the Sleepy Bois Inc. (SBI) along with Wilbur Soot, TommyInnit and Technoblade. All four of them joked about SBI as a familial dynamic, with Philza being a father figure. SBI fics with this interpretation are common and popular. However, Philza sometimes embraces and sometimes rejects this interpretation depending on context, leading to various fan interpretations of the dynamic.

He and Technoblade met while competing in Minecraft Monday, and later joined SMP Earth together where they founded the Antarctic Empire. Technoblade & Philza is a popular pairing platonically (often called "Emerald Duo" after a Dream SMP exchange), as a queerplatonic relationship, and also as a romantic ship. Some members of the fandom disapprove of the romantic pairing because Philza has stated[citation needed] he prefers to only be paired romantically with his real-life wife, Kristin Rosales Watson, while others argue that it is incestuous because of the general family dynamic in SBI.

In fandom, Philza is often headcanoned as an avian, or a bird-human hybrid. He is also frequently portrayed as the Angel of Death, a nickname he first got from Technoblade in SMP Earth due to his deadly bow skills while flying, also due to popular portrayals of Kristin as the goddess of Death (later canonized in the Dream SMP finale.)

Philza is one of the original members of the QSMP. He was assigned an egg, Chayanne, together with MissaSinfonía, who he called his platonic husband. Since Missa rarely played, Philza mostly took care of his son Chayanne by himself and later also of his adopted egg Tallulah, originally Wilbur´s egg. Philza´s QSMP character has some not yet fully explained connection to his hardcore world, and he told some tales from other SMPs he participated in as bedtime stories to Chayanne. In addition to Missa, q!Phil is also popularly paired with Forever, Étoiles, and Fit.
