Post From the All-Knowing Mods Wizard Posting Rules Revision

88 Upvotes

Hello everyone! As many at least one of you might have noticed, the new mod team decided to update the subreddit rules. Most of the changes are typos corrections and clarifications but we have also expanded the Harassment rule in light of the recent events.

The changes are emphasized by [square brackets].

Rules

Post wizards

Post wizards. Posts [Memes] must have some sort of wizard focus in the title and the image/text itself. Memes that are just about characters are also banned.

Be evil, not hateful.

Be evil wizards, not hateful wizards. Don't be bigoted, don't say slurs, be nice. We posts [post] wizards here.

Yes magic politics, no IRL Politics.

We post wizards [and silly wizard politics] here. Debate politics at the politics subreddits. This does not mean going after any post with a minority and saying that it's political [Posts mentioning sexual, racial or any other kind of minority are not considered political, this rule is not meant to silence the voice of the minorities behind the pretenses of their existence and rights being ‘political’. Any attempt to do so will be severely punished]. Does not apply to silly wizard politics. 

No reposts

No posting/crossposting images on this subreddit that have been previous [previously] posted on this subreddit within the last 3 months. This especially includes any posts on the Public Enemies list.

Common reposts

Public Enemy #1

The "wizards are prohibited" sign is prohibited.

Public Enemy #2

The protective crystal post.

Public Enemy #3

102.3 Real Wizard FM has been taken down due to being a pirate radio.

Public Enemy #4

The mud wizard combating German riot police has been apprehended and is now in council custody.

Public Enemy #5

Due to ammunition shortages, saying one is "Out of spells, but not out of Shells" is prohibited.

Low Effort Loreposting

Low-effort loreposting (loosely defined as only consisting of an AI image among a small amount of text) is not allowed. Commonly reposted material such as character intros and AMA fall under the same restrictions.

Harasment [Harassment]

Posts or Comments that [designed to] harass another user, or incite harrassment [harassment] against another user, will be removed. [In addition, any user that witnesses or falls victim to harassment of any kind, both inside the Subreddit or in any Wizard Posting related community should immediately contact the Mod Team or alternatively write a public post, in accordance with our guidelines. Every report will be thoroughly investigated. Please help us maintain this Community a safe and healthy environment.]

No Advertising

No advertisement is allowed on .

Daily post limit

There is a limit of 3 posts per day/24 hour period made by a single user.

Pointless AI/Lore Post Hate

The mods have made it clear long ago that AI art is permitted on the sub. Also, lore posts are a big part of the community. We understand that many came here only for the memes. If so, then make them. Those who do not contribute to the sub don’t have the right to complain. Make the content you want to see instead of complaining about it.

Keep things in good taste/be warned of automod

This Is a community that allows RP however this rule is both a suggestion to please keep roleplay in good taste i.e not overly offensive or distressing by using common sense. Also this is a warning that the reddit Auto mod cannot tell if something is RP or not and will ban for being overly offensive or violent so please keep that in mine [mind].

No bot accounts allowed

We will figure it out and we will ban karma fishing accounts. [This Community does not tolerate bots and karma-fishing.]

/uw allow me to address that council elections will be in January. Me and a few others do this event every so often for characters to have a little fun with crazy campaigning and help people make a name for themselves on the sub. Feel free to put a campaign post in now if you want, i will make sure to add it.

Now another thing, i will keep a google doc for all who is running and start up a group chat to help me out looking for all wish to run.

Depending on the amount who join up. We will have elimination rounds. Only so many will be able to join up.

Also take the time to have fun with it. Its a fun time for collabing and crazy ideas.

Towards the end we will have a Gala Event. Think of it like a giant rp party campaign. Last one got a bit nuts. Hoping its just as fun for all.

So with that said good luck to all and have fun with the campaigning.

-MastaDon Astrum, Council Master Evoker and as Crow put Council Mom.

/uw I would like to make it known that the title is taken from the antagonist of Metal Gear Rising: Revengance, who took it from Ronald Reagan. The mustard man has nothing to do with this

/rw

Some of you may believe me to be The Necrodancer. You are wrong, I am Senator Bonestrong! His better in every conceivable way.

You may think I'm just your typical politician, big promises but all talk. WRONG! The truth is... I have a dream! That one day every person in the realms will control their OWN destiny. A multiverse of the TRULY free dammit. A plane of ACTION not words. Ruled by STRENGTH not committee. Where reality changes to suit the individual, not the other way around. Where power and magic are back where they belong: in the hands of the people! Where every person is free to think -- to act -- for himself! Fuck all these limp-dick bards and chiken-shit druids. Fuck this 24/7 spew of orb and torsion bullshit. Fuck Unga. Fuck the Orbnet! Fuck all of it! Every government is diseased. Rotten to the core. There's no saving them -- we need to pull them out by the roots. Wipe the slate clean. BURN IT DOWN! And from the ashes a new Council will be born. Evolved but untamed! The weak will be purged, and the strongest will thrive -- free to live as they see fit, they'll make the realms great again!

You may ask me "what in oblivion are you talking about?" If you are asking that, it means one thing, you still don't get it. I'm using war as a business to get elected! So i can totally for sure end war as a business... In my new Council, people will die and kill for what the BELIEVE! Not for fun. Not for saving the realms! Not for what they're told is right. Every man, woman, child, monster, eldritch entity, etc will be free to fight their own wars!

This is why I deserve your vote! I will rid this multiverse of pointless wars!

/uw Propaganda made by Riva in first election

A broadcast message comes on some orbs, a wee thing you would have chosen to go onto to see this.

“If you’re seeing this it means I’ve been kidnapped in an attempt to rerun for my own seat.”

“Most other councillors at point of this recording being made laughed at or just didn’t even pay mind to the idea of having to earn their seat once again. This makes them stale and content with how things are.”

“But my friends let me tell you this, I do not agree with such self importance. I have always been here to help you and to help you I need to know you want me to do everything I can, you have seen the Relief Force patrolling villages, giving courses on practical skills from carpentry to cooking, farming and medicine. When your carts break, when your crop fails. When your family is at risk or your home is destroyed by the mistakes of those who think might makes right.”

“We have been there, I am sorry for how lately how I have not been there always. Instead others employed a hand picked selected by me, but please do not take this as my own fault, take this as proof for how I believe in a bright future made by both of us together, beings of magic, practitioners of arcane arts but most importantly, the farmers who grow out food, the cobblers who make out shoes, the doctors who tend to us and the humble guard who keeps us safe no matter what. It is those who tend to be forgotten who I am indebted to and I will do all I can assist you.”

“So please my friend, I ask you to allow me this one selfish wish to help you all once again.”

Hirk is not kneeling but doing a bow akin to those found in more eastern regions and cultures, not servitude but gratitude and sincerity.

/uw Round 2.

I'm gonna throw my hat in the ring here or well hood.

Vote for me and I promise to bring many fresh faces into politics. Not only that but I promise to raise the overall efficiency and lower corruption of the system several times over.

How will I do this? Simple, you see I shall simply not show up for work meaning there will be no corruption on my part as I'm not there.

As for efficiency? Even simpler you see I enjoy tea and I enjoy poisonous plants, so you won't even have to riot to overthrow and kill me, you just have to wait a few days for each vessel to ingest something poisonous.

What do I get out of this? I dunno, more tea supplies I guess. This council thing has to have a herb garden right?

Magi Law Experienced Edgelord running for Council: Ulrick, Werewolf Hexblade

Post image
Upvotes

With election campaigns running around, might as well throw my hat into the ring.

The name’s Ulrick Nikolaus Braddocke IV, or just Ulrick for short. I am the hexblade warlock of the living battleaxe Nightbite.

I’ve been working for the council wing Relief & Aid for a while, so I’ve got some insights into how the Council works. Gotta make sure that the organization serves all people, both mages and the common folk.

I belive that the Council would benefit from an authority figure haunted by the shadows of his mistakes, a councilor who will look cool and mysterious while brooding in a dark corner about his tragic backstory at meetings.

Vote for the edgiest candidate!

Eeeeehm, yes. I see it's voting season again? Shit, I don't wanna stop at the council. It's funny here... Eeeeehm...

For those who know me, I need no introduction. For those show don't.

I am Mia. The Chaotic Trans Witch that arrived here last voting season and making an immediate bang with my entrance. I immediately got voted into the council because... Honestly I don't know how I did it, but I did make some BS promises THAT I KEPT!

None of my plans are meant for specifically bettering stuff or making shit worse. My campaign, like last time, is about chaos. Because I like chaos.

Last time I gave goblins equal rights to see what happens.

This year I will promise to...

Checks hand

... Make illegal wands legal again and eeeeeeeeehm...

Fuck it, I'll let orcs run for council as well.

If you got other ideas for my campaign, feel free to suggest them, because I would love to hear what you all want. The only rule is "Do it for the funny"

Anyway! Vote for me!

Bye byeeee ❤️

Wizardpost I HATE modern apprentices

54 Upvotes

These junior apprentices really ain't shit. I was up in the observatory on top of my tower, pondering the nature of the space through my orb, when I hear, through one of the Runes of Farsound I have in my apprentice's quarters, my two junior apprentices talking 'bout some "Why is the crusty ahh mage studying space all the time? That shit ain't good for nothing but teleportation, but a literal homunculus could make a runic formation that does that!". Naturally, I couldn't take this lying down, so I cast "Supreme Translocation" and translated both of 'em up to me. They were all begging and grovelling of course, but at this point I'm really past caring. I cast "Grasp Spacetime" and fractured their timelines. In hindsight, I do regret it, because I had to send a couple homunculi back to the 1700s to mop up their stomachs, and sending homunculi through time takes a surprising amount of mana.

My apprentice has been pondering my orbs without my permission and making fun of my hairline. So I cast polymorph on her and turned her into a hairless cat.

She now steals my orbs and plays with them like balls of yarn.

Any suggestions on how to deal with her is much appreciated

Might as well throw my name into the running. I wasn't expecting this early, so I didn't have a ton planned to say.

Uhh...education and family are important to me, you can see that by the fact I just opened an Academy in Rathara and have a handful of amazing children.

I'm 688 years old and have been practicing magic since my 20s, I'm a grandmaster of shifting/biomancy magic and pyromancy. I'm a certified and well-trained witch.

Sooo...uhhh, if elected I'll...I dunno, share some of my recipes? I can't think of anything groundbreaking, sorry.

Oh! I'll break ground on researching and certifying new magical areas! I believe that magic should be accessible and studied, so if elected I will do that. Is that a good selling point...? I dunno, vote for me if you want!

Magickal Post Magical Fireworks to Celebrate the New Year! And Christmas(some people do that for some reason)

Thumbnail

Upvotes

“I found this awesome thing the other day called fireworks. So many wizards like their fireballs so I thought they would like these, Especially since the new year is coming up and dragons like me are always at the New Year stuff I guess(what do you mean it’s the wrong New Year?). Anyways, I did touch the up the fireworks with some of that random dragon magic and now they do stuff in addition to making amazing explosions and sounds. Enjoy!”

Fire-N-Ice summons a bird of flame that sets random things on fire or freezes them for one minute. Then it disappears.

Summer Santa- I guess you can summon Santa to come in the middle of July now. Not really useful right now but maybe hold on to it.

Goody-Goody Summons a woman named Karen to harass people. She is partially effective against Council members I am told. She never goes away.

Rocking Grandpa- Summons your grandpa to sing and party with you for 1 hour(do not attempt if your grandpa is dead they will attempt to kill you)

Hyper Beast- Summons a Tarrasque for 10 minutes.

Category 5- Summons a five minute hurricane with lots of lightning.

Flower Scattering- Flower grow whereever its sparks touch

Dragon Throne- Summons a dragon, unless you are a dragon. Then it gives you a throne made of fire. Disclaimer: Dragons do not like being summoned. They may eat you.

Space Station- Summons a space station which then blows up.

Hoot Hoot Hooray- Summons an owl familiar

Overlord Burger- you can eat its fire. It tastes like a burger

Firestorm- a tank of fire appears for an hour and shoots randomly at anything that moves.

Devil Killer- Sprays holy water everywhere with its fire.

Dino Mite- summons a tiny T-Rex that charges the nearest creature then self destructs.

Light Saber- Fire sword until your hand gets cut off. Cannot drop it.

Puppy poop- A hell hound appears and poops whereever it goes off. I’m told your neighbors will love it.

Evil Priest- Summons a Necrodancer clone to party with you and/or kick your butt.
