Wikipedia:WikiFallen

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A party of WikiKnight and WikiImps trudging through the path between redemption and destruction

The WikiFallen are a subset of WikiFauna that were banished from the realm of Wikipedia. These creatures look like a pale and corrupted version of their normal counterpart. The WikiFallen cannot see this drastic change as their eyes still see their glorious self and see anyone opposing them as gibbering worms. The WikiFallen should not be confused with the WikiTroll, though they do have similarities, as both are despised.

Characteristics[edit]

These creatures were once glorious creatures of the light. Some were once even keepers of the law. But pride in their work crept into their hearts; they foolishly believed their work was valued and worth the effort of writing. They think that they deserve the praise of their peers and that the realm cannot prosper without them. These creatures of the living dead also realize that they have the divine right to proclaim this to the creatures of Wikipedia; where such treacherous thoughts are deeply unwelcome. This attitude causes widespread damage, deep dismay off-site and results in others taking harsh measures. However, the WikiFallen might be hard to defeat as they twist the benevolent energies of others to fuel their rage. However, after many epic battles, the WikiFallen will be either banished from the realm or forced into self-exile.

Containing the Fallen within[edit]

A calm mind keeps the Fallen within from manifesting. Experienced WikiFauna utilize zen-like meditation to calm themselves. They also know that anger leads only to destruction of the self. For those who are deeper in the path of the fallen, a choice between redemption and destruction is given.

Fallen Fauna[edit]

WikiDragons[edit]

The WikiDragon is the most susceptible of the WikiFauna to fall. Some can still feel the praise of a lost generation of editors, a generation who built an encyclopedia, when they created majestic pillars of knowledge and breathed life upon the Wiki. But time has been cruel to the great wyrms and the land is no longer the place they once knew. New editors, armed with the shackles of civility and policy, try to tame the volatile creative rage of the WikiDragons. Some would even dare venture to the Void of Off-sites to craft weaponry against the mighty Dragons. Surprisingly, most dragons are able to withstand and even turn the tide against their detractors, yet some still fall. These weakened dragons try to hide in their crystal spires, thinking that they would be shielded from danger, but these too shall fail them in time. "I am ONLY at Wikipedia for the people who use computers to find information. That is the only thing I care about," cries the beleaguered Dragon, but this falls to deaf ears as the clash of blades and torn flesh fill the night sky. Battered and beaten, most devolve into WikiOgres but some become darker versions of themselves. Like the mythical Hydra, they grow mutated heads and young death wyrms that gnaw upon the lands that they once called home.

WikiKnights[edit]

The fallen version of the WikiKnight is known as the Dark WikiKnight.

WikiBadgers[edit]

WikiBadgers were primarily known for not caring about anything including the rules. While formerly tolerated, their bitey behavior eventually caught up with many who were then fed to the WikiGiants. Those that remain have generally been redeemed.

WikiNinja[edit]

A WikiNinja who becomes a fallen is considered a WikiShadow. Once known for their loyalty to the Wiki as WikiNinjas, a WikiShadow seeks to vandalize it covertly.
