Okay. Now that picture is funny.

Sorry, I got bored...

Oz: Crossroads of Legends.

Somewhere out there in the multitude of realms and pocket universes there is one that just so happens to take card games very very seriously. Seeing as the cards of that realm/universe can release characters from stories and legends of limitless power, the focus on card games is quite justified. In a setting where magic and technology are one and the same, this...realmiverse is called Oz.

Oz had two ruling classes. There were the Wordsmiths, who wrote epic tales of heroes and villains, of monsters and machines, of gods and men. The technology they used to write commands a magic so powerful that their scripture is infused with summoning and life magic that through psychic matter transmutation gives anything they write about the ability to come to life. The magic of their stories remained, even when alchemically reduced into a film-like digital data storage.

Then there were the Dealers, who wielded the cards. Their rituals extract the magic of the Wordsmiths to release them from their small rectangular transdimensional quantum computer films. This allows the characters of the works to be brought to life.

Sadly the primary intent of interactive fiction was quickly lost when the destructive potential of these cards was realized. In the first and last war to occur on Oz, Wordsmiths were called on to write the most devastatingly malicious and powerful characters ever imagined. The Dealers took these horrible stories to rain the hellfire of pure imagination upon each other.

Obviously this didn't last long. Not because of mutually assured destruction, but because suddenly an incredible amount of deities of utter chaos and destruction were brought to life, and were told they were to fight on behalf of obviously inferior beings. Oops.

So now the world of creators belongs to their creations, who have spent the last centuries being oppressive jerks for fun because that's how they were written. In a last ditch attempt to reclaim their realmiverse, the people of Oz found another world. One which still contained stories of hope and peace, of benevolent gods and mighty heroes. And so with their last bit of magic fuel, they reached out towards the most powerful scriptures of this world, to bring forth the heroes that would save them.

But they missed and instead they got this website. ...looks like they don't have a choice!

Plz nu. They would slaughter us with numbers.

Anthor: Dice go!

*dice crushes everything with numbers*

Anthor: Oh yeah Baby!

No, as in that they actually roll dice when rolling for damage and such.

Snipers aren't deadly because they use really big guns.

Snipers are deadly because they know how to weaponize math.

'Twas a joke, but thank you for the abolopgy anyway. For once, where my heart should be, a fuzzy feeling was surfaced. Nice people still exist.

*floats into the air before ascending to heaven* I can now go in peace...
