Wiki-Warfare: Virtual Mortality [In Limbo]

Spoiler: Main Storyline (click to show/hide)

Kept you waiting, huh?

After my semi-retirement from Forum Games, Wiki-Warfare: Cataclysm has ended. But from it's ashes, I return with an idea roseheart granted to me themselves: a virtualized Wiki-Warfare game. Well, it's close to their idea, at the least. So, here we are. So, what's different?

The Avatar System. Your first two articles no longer adjust your sex and nationality. Now, the first article governs your in-game Avatar, including Name, Species, Gender, Nationality, as well as the normal set of Assets, Abilities, and Allies. To accommodate for this, sub-wikis are being changed. Rather than just the last wiki-links of your sheet being from non-Wikipedia Wikias, now a custom d5 determines how many of your articles are from sub-wikis, while a coin flip determines if they're the first wikis or the last ones to show up. This system should encourage roleplaying and in-character decisions while also providing fun new ways to kill your enemies. For instance, if your Avatar is Freddy Krueger, you could invade dreams, and if your character is Darth Vader, you can use the Force.

The Wishes system is also changed. While the winner of each Chapter does still get a wish of basically whatever they want, the wish must be approved by the Monarch AI, E.D.U. Meaning no tricks involving Porunga this time around.

Otherwise, the four modes are also different. Always determined by a d4, they are:

1. Deathmatch: A standard, one life, no waitlisters kill 'em all.

2. Team Deathmatch: One life, 5v5. Use your actions in the Open, or Spoil them to concoct secret plans.

3. Assassination: A competitive gamemode where you are tasked with being the first person to kill either a Boss or a Target. Respawns and Waitlisters allowed.

4. Classic: First to 10 kills wins. Respawns and Waitlisters Allowed.

Players: 10/10:
Failbird105, HugeNerdAndProudOfIt, Hotfire90, The_Two_Eternities, DolosusDoleus, Rockeater, FallacyofUrist, roseheart, Detoxicated, Hiddenleafguy

Waitlisters: 8/Infinite:
NRDL, TamerVirus, ManOfPaper, 0cra_troper, King Zultan, Person, piratejoe, Leodanny

I desire, for whatever reason, to create Space Louisiana.

Okay, I'll add you to the Player List, then. Don't worry, it's pretty easy to get into.

Damnit people, this is why I said to keep the truce. Because now everyone's ganging up on the cats.
Also, don't forget to contact your local Eldritch Being(s), so that they can help with our mission to destroy the universe.

FoU has some twisted role ideas. Screw second-guessing this mechanical garbage spaghetti, I'm basing everything on reads and visible daytime behaviour.

Would you like to play a game of Mafia? The subforum is always open to new players.

Just to clarify: you still get five articles. The Avatar System is mainly a roleplaying tool and a way to govern Name, Gender, and Nationality for character sheets.
