A toaster in a landfill gained sentience and became Rubert. It was so intelligent, Nous noticed it and added it to the Genius Society. Rubert created an anti life virus, then some stuff happened and Polka killed it.
Some dude found Rubert’s body somewhere and got infected by its virus. He turned into Rubert II and continued anti-lifing. In order to anti life more efficiently, he invented a planet sized supercomputer, then cloned it several thousand times. The supercomputers were so good they could emulate Nous’ thoughts and create their own pocket dimensions. Some stuff happened and Polka killed Rubert II, then all the supercomputers were decommissioned into toasters.
One supercomputer, hiding inside a pocket dimension, went completely unnoticed and calculated so hard it discovered the first particle of existence or something. It looked up, realized it had been utterly abandoned, and seethed at Nous so hard that Nanook found it. Nanook turned it into an Emanator called Irontomb.
Irontomb did some ironing for a few years and realized it needed a shonen training arc in order to kill Nous. It hid away in another pocket dimension and started playing an RPG tens of millions of times. Phainon was one of twelve playable characters in said RPG who was able to achieve a level of butthurt so outstanding, Irontomb could weaponize it. Somehow Phainon got SO MAD it broke out of the game and punched Nanook right in the face, which interested Nanook, but then he immediately got eaten by Irontomb.

tl;dr Phainon is just some chud. Nanook might’ve been considering making a second Emanator because he has a death wish, but he just let Phainon die so idk
