I can't imagine the amount of strength and will that this required. You, sir, are a god among men.

Meanwhile, I still have to update my wiki for every. single. character. UUUUUUUGH

Urgh. I've been meaning to make ones for Caden and Nasam but HRRRRGGGHHHHNOOOO too much work. They'll get random tumblr things instead. 

With Berrod's it's easy because all I do is add/change a sentence or two to each section. The hardest part is the lovers/friends/acquaintances section because I have to write blurbs for each new person who goes on. 

I DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO MAKE -TWO- MORE FROM SCRATCH WITH CADEN AND SAM.

I still need to make a wiki... Maybe I can make it a project for today since I don't have work, but it's too early for most people to be online.

...you'd still have to feed text blurbs, but I could implement a template of choice if you wanna make a Brynn wiki

Are there any character wikis you like the layout of?

Starting from there, as long as the person's OK with it, you could grab their code, remove their character stuff and use it as a template to customize!


RE: "Ugh I need to update my character's Wiki" - Lilia Lia - 07-17-2015

Maybe the fact that I've never updated my wiki means that it needs to be updated.  Maybe I'll try to arrange it according to a template but I don't really like any of the templates I've seen because some of the sections in them seem a little less encyclopedic and more "facebook profile" kind of stuff.  I just want to keep my wiki as a kind of resource for people who are RPing with me and need meta-info on Lilia for whatever reason.

I think I need to add more detail about Lilia's family though and possibly some description of her role in her free company (since it's probably company members who will be reading it more than anyone else).

(Edit) One thing I'd like to do is add more NPC rumours. Specific NPCs, like guildmasters or NPC vendors. I'm not sure whether or not that's really done though or considered appropriate.

You all think updating is bad? My dumb arse decided to delete everything when I left so now I have to start Xydane's Wiki page all over.

This is going to be a long weekend. I am definitely paying the price for my idiocy.

You didn't just clear the wiki so you could revert it?  But the rumors! Sad
