General

What is a wiki?

A wiki is a type of website that allows users to easily add and edit content and is especially suited for collaborative writing. The Avlis wiki (also know as the Interactive Player Library) is a wiki used for documenting the rules and evolving history of the world of Avlis.

Why should I create an Avlis Wiki account?

The wiki account gives you another way to communicate with the Avlis community. By having the account you can edit pages on the wiki and communicate in a new way with other players. You can organize the characters you play and list known IC information about them on their pages. By adding additional categories you can link yourself and your characters to other groups and concepts on the wiki. You can also use the wiki as a directed form of open communication different from PMing in that everyone can see everything. I am trying to put together a player run matching system and also a mentor system that will take advantage of the wiki.

You can find lots of general help on the Avlis Wiki in Help:Contents as well as lots of little things to have fun, experiment with and learn how to use the Avlis wiki on Player's Playground.
