π Contribution Guidelines
To keep the Wiki consistent and helpful, all live edits must follow these rules:
- This Wiki is Out-of-Play (OOP) unless a page is specifically marked as In-Play (IP). Write in clear, neutral language for real-world reference.
- Stay Canon-Faithful β Do not invent lore or mechanics. Expand only with staff approval or official FOIP reveals.
- Use a Reference Tone β Think handbook or rule summary, not storytelling prose or personal voice.
- Avoid Power Creep β Donβt suggest mechanics, races, or abilities outside approved balance processes.
- No Religion β Volaire is a godless setting. Avoid religious terminology, cosmology, or divine references.
- Follow Formatting Standards β Use correct DokuWiki syntax (italics, bold, etc.) and the namespace: `operations:public:*`
- Proofread Before Submitting β Clean grammar and formatting are required. Sloppy edits will be reverted.
- Cite Your Sources β When referencing rules or lore, include the relevant Rulebook section or approved ticket #.
π‘ Common Contributions

- β Clarifying confusing rules or XP tables
