Formatting on the Wiki

Core Formatting Rules

1. Third-Person Player Perspective: Always write from the player's objective knowledge, never from a character's in-game point of view (no first-person "I/We walked into the cave").
2. Zero Emojis: Do not use emojis in titles, headers, callouts, or body text.
3. Clean Heading Hierarchy: Use standard Markdown # for main titles and ## / ### for sub-sections.

Formatting Examples

1. Internal Wikilinks & Aliases

Connect notes across the wiki using standard double brackets:

• [[Ouroboros Inn]] $\rightarrow$ links to the article titled Ouroboros Inn.
• [[Ouroboros Inn|The Local Tavern]] $\rightarrow$ links to Ouroboros Inn while displaying custom text "The Local Tavern".
• [[Sythian]] $\rightarrow$ automatically routes to the campaign world page.

2. Text Styling

**Bold text** for emphasis or key terms.
*Italic text* for book titles, spells, or foreign phrases.
~~Strikethrough~~ for deprecated information.
`inline code` for technical terms or dice notations like `1d20 + 7`.

3. Lists & Task Lists

- Unordered bullet point
  - Nested sub-item
1. Numbered sequential step
2. Second sequential step

- [ ] Uncompleted task or open investigation
- [x] Completed task or resolved quest

4. Markdown Tables

Organize structured data cleanly:

| Location | Region | Danger Level | Primary Faction |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Ouroboros Inn | The Crossroads | Safe | Guild Staff |
| Sunken Caldera | Sythian Wilds | High | Ashbound Cult |

5. LaTeX Math Expressions

Render mathematical formulas and loot splits cleanly using KaTeX syntax:

• Inline math: $\frac{1}{2} \times \text{Level gp}$ $\rightarrow$ $\frac{1}{2} \times \text{Level gp}$
• Block math:

$$
\text{Total Gold} = \frac{\text{Loot Value}}{N \text{ Players}}
$$

6. Obsidian Callouts

Section off crucial notes, warnings, quotes, and quest questions:

> [!note] General Note
> Informational context about the setting.

> [!tip] Practical Advice
> Helpful advice for players or GMs.

> [!warning] Cautionary Warning
> Important alert regarding rules or hazards.

> [!quote] Voidmaster Citation
> Word-for-word quote directly from a Voidmaster.
