I've never monoluged before!

It all started some time ago, when I was messing with purpose-finder.program. One of the purposes it tried to assign me was of an NPC leftover from an earlier alpha version of the game.

The developers didn't remove certain mechanics from that older version. Why, I have no idea, but when it temporarily made me into the [Archmage of Light]. It dug out an asset from that older version, the [Orb of Excellence].

The [Orb of Excellence] was smashed, so it doesn't exist anymore, but it turns out, purpose-finder actually summoned seven different orbs.y hypotheses is that these had something to do with the story, before they decided to make this into a more open world game.

Anyways, that's why I asked you about seeing "ominous orbs". I found one, the [Orb of Wisdom], every orb has a price for its use. The [Orb of Wisdom] grants knowledge, at the cost of making the user obsessed with forbidden knowledge. I used it, my curiosity got the better of me.

So, I started researching stuff, about the limits of my purview. Turns out, any mechanic under the format tutorial.something.something is something I can control.

I can summon very basic items and monsters, I can teleport anyone who is in the process of doing the tutorial to any location which is important to the tutorial, and a bunch of additional things! I have like, 78 super basic health potions in my inventory! They aren't powerful, but there are a lot of them.

Oh, hello... Your body is made out of symbols?

Well whatever. Here is a quick rundown:

Basically we are all game UI or simply game elements that got sentience (somehow, we don't yet know how). Some of us are NPCs some of us are different parts of a game UI that somehow got bodies. All of us are characterized by punctuation marks (some of us really are actual punctuation marks, while some only have a punctuation mark instead of a face).

The world we live in seems to be what the players call a "classic RPG setting".

|On a more meta note, while this was all intended more as a bunch of gimmick accounts it devolved into a whole roleplay thing with lore.|

The latest thing happening is a war with trolls which seems to have been avoided. And that seems to have been in part caused by ice people who got woken up when the sun stopped doing its job which was caused by an oh so certain Wizard.

It's complicated.

Anyways before that, the original punctuation mark (status updates) hacked into the literal game command prompt and became a god. He was defeated. His duties were taken over by a slightly brain damaged "status updates 2" for some time. That situation is mostly fine now.

I also accept submissions! If you have any ideas feel free to submit them!
