Welcome to Madness¹⁾! This is Improbable Island's how-to-play Wiki.^2)3)4)5) Here, you'll find a labyrinth of misinformation about the game in a delicious 50/50 black forest cakemix of true tales and the taller kind ⁶⁾. So grab your ball of string, tie it tight to your nearest sturdy item of furniture and get ready for a ramble through a maze of Dunbernarding proportions.

Read this. READ THIS. Believe us, this section's pages are very important. We know it's confusing, first off, to be faced with all these billions of pages flapping around in your face like broken-hearted pigeons on steroids, but we promise that a quick whiz⁷⁾ through the next three in this section is going to be Very Good For You.^8)9)10)

• On that note, take a look at the Rookie Advisory and theFAQ^11)12)13). They are both lie-free¹⁴⁾! You probably need to read these to survive.¹⁵⁾

• Advanced Roleplaying And when you're done reading that one, you should have a look at this as well!
  

• After you've finished with the basics of roleplaying, it's time to get acquainted with the setting and backstory of Improbable Island, known as the Canon.

• How to Greet Rookies For when you're settled in a bit and want to pass on the friendly vibes.

Here are things you might want to read if you want to know what a Zolotisty is, or where not to sleep for the night, or why those people have many more arms than you, or why you've been dropped naked into the middle of an outpost, or even what the hell a Chat Channel is. These links are for you, for when you need details on anything, you want to get a grip on how people write or you just feel like enjoying a few scenes we've hijacked into existence for your visual delectation. Flit around! It's all there for your well-being and general warm fuzzies.

It's not too difficult to set up an account at the Enquirer, and once you have one, you can edit, add to, vandalize or change this page and any others in any fashion you see fit. Check out this page for instructions on how to edit a page; then try your hand at editing one here. Please bear in mind that you'll have to decide for yourself how much truth any individual page contains. The Wiki of Lies²⁵⁾ is like that.

So! Make some pages. Soon²⁶⁾. Don't forget to lie.

Use the Sitemap in the bottom right corner as a reference guide when you're creating a page, so you don't go creating multiple pages that contain the same info (such as Housing vs. Dwellings, Cake vs. The Cake).²⁷⁾ Pages are indexed in the Sitemap automatically.

<note important>Links! Green! Red! Other red! Half-assed efforts and unobtainable ambitions! Pointless references to songs and/or poems! In-jokes that don't make any sense anymore! Memes from 2008!</note>
