ZampanioSim

A simulation of Zampanio created by JR, with certain creative liberties taken to fit the medium of a simulation and JRs own particular way of doing things.

If you take the simulation at face value, it's a never ending series of not games that let you use the power of Imagination to speculate on what it would be like to play this game as this title or that. You unlock new menu items through the skill tree and every playthrough has different menus items possible. Maybe one time you get to explore the Companion screen, and another the Gods?

If you however refuse to believe that games lies there are two main paths away from that which is obvious.

You can force it to be a game.

Or you can insist that you be given only the truth.

There are branches and side paths from all the main paths. All are lies.

This wiki is itself a path.
Quotidians and Dangerous Knowledge: A Guide

**Quotidians and Dangerous Knowledge: A Guide**

InQQuisitive Beings proved to be THE BEST at gathering data for the Creator, to the point where incredibly dangerous and illegal LOCAL STATE SECRETS were obtained that the Creator had never asked for.

In the Creators Infinite Wisdom, a PATCH was applied to the InQQuisitive Being's genetic code to add an addendum to **Law 2: Hiding**.

If a piece of data broadly matches the pattern of "DANGER", an InQQuisitive Being will encrypt it with the Creators PUBLIC KEY. It would take anyone without the Creator's PRIVATE KEY decades to centuries (depending on technology level) to decrypt it.  Of course, with the Creator's death, no such PRIVATE KEY exists anymore.

As such, **Law 1: Data Acquisition** will eventually (over many generations) break into all encrypted data. If an InQQuisitive being is able to recognize the data as "DANGER", it will immediately be re-encrypted.  If it is not recognized as "DANGER" it will circulate in the Quotidian Quorom's economy until an InQQuisitive being capable of recognizing it as "DANGER" encrypts it again.

Initial generations of InQQuisitive Beings erred on the side of caution, as they were not intelligent enough to recognize nuance with regard to "DANGER", and there was no steep penalty to encrypting data by default (since the Creator could easily decrypt).

Over the centuries, as increased intelligence and sapience developed in individual units of the Quotidian Quorom, increased nuance was developed, to the point that it is extremely rare that family recipes, grocery lists, or love letters are encrypted. However, there remains an extremely low tolerance for information such as weapons of mass destruction or suppression of free will.
ThisIsNotAGame

The main DOM element of ZampanioSim. It does not contain a game. As you explore it you discover more and more ways it is not a game, even if you could be forgiven for mistaking it for one. You find many new screens that appear to be related to games. You can even discover many possible player characters that would be very cool to star in a game of some sort. Sadly, they do not. It's for the best.

It never ends.

If you make it into ThisIsAGame instead you get to play a text based adventure game with absolutely no consequences!!! Remember, it's not enough to know where to LOOK to make it into a game, you must ACT.

## In the Adventure sim

You find a conference room containing hundreds upon hundreds of copies of bootleg copies of Skyrim, all on burnt CDs with sharpies written on them.

There is a projection of the opening to the game on one wall, though it's hard to make out with how bright the lights are in this room.

> pick up one of the skyrims

Tord Towards Trove Travaganza, it says.

> dim the lights (or turn down the brightness on your goggles)

You dim the lights as the opening cutscene of skyrim plays.

Your vision fades to black and you find yourself outside the COURTHOUSE.

Wodin

He has the username odinsRazor.
He is obsessed with the crimes of the Eye Killer. Obsession is a dangerous thing.

He has two notBolgs: http://www.knucklessux.com/Blog/ and https://odinsrazor.tumblr.com/

You can learn more about his story in the East.

*"Wodin didn’t really exist at first? What did it matter what 'Your’ past was, if you’d thrown it all way to endlessly wander a hell maze? But…once the Quotidians became Relevant I realized there was room for their Creator, 'Odin’ to exist. Rather than shoe horn in another character, I quickly realized that the Wanderer is someone sacrificing themselves for Wisdom and…well, the rest sort of flowed from there."*
The Counterfeit God

The Counterfeit God is an incomplete God from X-Con. It is related to The Harvest due to X-Con's relation to the Lavinraca Corn Maze.

It is currently seeking a Name. X, X'y, and others are under consideration.

It does not wish to be fractally doomed to a variety of horrors. http://lavinraca.eyedolgames.com/images/HATEHATEHATEHATE/LOVELOVELOVELOVE/aLetterOfLimitedCoherency\_from\_the\_medium.pdf

Catalog of Shots from XCon: [Sacrifices to The Counterfeit God]

1. defensiveLobster (Possibly the Medium's test, uncertain.)

2. The Heralds (A bit glitched, but accepted. Presumably The Thief of Beef and NotAMinotaur)

16. Anime Protagonist Number 157 that could dodge bullets for some reason. But lets be honest here, dodging bullets is absolute nonsense. Do you actually expect me to believe that some anime boy that barely even managed to tie his shoes or draw breath without falling over and exploding like a crystal statue made by the worst statue maker in all of the realms somehow manages to dodge a metal object that was hurling at you at approximately 4600 feet per second? Are you kiddin (...this is pretty meta.)

As X-Con was sacrificed, the endings list is also included:

4 Lies Endings, 6 Truth Endings, 2 Closer Endings, 3 Time Paradox Endings, 1 WriteIn (It seems an Observer has found MatPat is canon alongside his Truth and Lies are the same Theory!)

If you count entries outside of justLies, the shot ending above also would be included. As the shot ending was a sacrifice, it is included.

Zawhei Bacama is the highest member of the ruling caste of jade blooded snake lamia, venerated for their role in expanding Nidhogg's Children. Zawhei believes strongly in the word of Nidhogg, and in upholding the status quo that supports Nidhogg's objective. She can be kind of a smug asshole, especially to Eirikr, her polar opposite, the lowest Player on the totem pole by their society's rules.

She talks precisely and formally, unwess you get her angwy and then she fawws into owo speak wike hew wusus. She hates this, and she hates her lusus, who she views as inferior. She wears a "lusus costume" in order to provide optimal maternal care to the grubs grown in her orchard, and to campaign for the institution of lusii to be disbanded as obsolete.

"The Truth is but a believable Lie. A Lie is but an ignored Truth. That is the nature of Illusions. One man's Truth is another's Lie. A Lie may hold a Truth. Layers upon Layers upon Layers."

He is the Illusionist of Dolls. He uses an imperfect facsimile of himself as a stand-in for himself in his creations.

Doesn't search for answers. Simply stumbles upon them.

Prefers to watch from the sidelines than actively command.

Just a little guy. Visually resembles someone else, but it's a coincidence. Probably.

His story started in confusion, seeing JR's reblogs with Zampanio tags without any further context. It was only when someone else asked for answers did he decide to look deeper.

Goes through phases of intense hyperfixation and mindnumbing distraction.

Made a presentation that he didn't present.
Quinque Cloak

A simple matte black cloak with a 5 embroidered on the back in shiny black thread.

**Effect** :  Wearing it permanently erases your buns, and prevents you from being anything more than an "acquaintance" with anyone ever again. In game effect is to dissolve your party and switch to solo play.

**Mirror World Effect** : When reversed, permanently causes anyone who ever knew you to feel at LEAST as strongly about you as if you were a childhood companion (for good OR for bad).

**Plot Consequences**:  We didn't encounter it in the main world, but in the Mirror World it is how the Association kept everyone at "small town" level of cooperation despite having billions of people.

The Artifact of the Closer.

## Devona's dream

*"Well, um, this one, uh, this one is probably about my brother Neville, uh, and how much he means to me, and really all my friends, are so important, and if I didn't have them I think I'd just die, so I thought about what if there was, what if you could put on some clothing and suddenly no one recognized you and they didn't care about you anymore and nothing you did could make them remember you were friends or that you had all this history together anymore and how alone you would feel and what if stoped you from making NEW friends. And THEN I started worrying about the opposite, if you could put on one of those fancy outfits like the models or the mannequins wear and instantly be anyone's closest friend and how would you even know if YOUR closest friend was someone like that?"*
ThisIsNotABG

Actually isn't, but pretends to be. Sometimes it changes, when you aren't looking. Hides secrets of various types depending on what mode you are. RageMode I am especially proud of.

If you try to make it be a background, it leaves. There are easier ways to make it go away than this, but hey, can't argue results.
Reluctant Mummy Eustace

> "*\*sigh\* I always knew I'd die surrounded by corn. I just thought it'd be with corn reeking of four-day old cooking oil and stupid cinema carpet. I'm not sure which is worse.* "
>
>

One of the lost souls in the Lavinraca Corn Maze. Doesn't get paid enough to feel fear. His costume is made out of toilet paper.

He was selected as the True Sacrifice by the actions of the Guests during Week 1. At the end of Week 3, he was subsumed into the Harvest alongside Camellia, Truth, the Scarecrow, and everything else.

Woke up in the corn maze, or mysteriously ended up there after leaving his workplace. Who can say for certain?

He works at Ghoul Halloween. And before you ask, no, he does not like Halloween. He thinks he might have. Before the Horror of Retail.

Was nice to Twig and tried to help them find a bathroom.

Terri thinks they are best friends. He hates her so much.

Eustace died in the Corn Maze, but if he didn't, this might have happened: https://archiveofourown.org/works/51166669

Supposedly based on a special character that appears in games of Zampanio started near Halloween.

Page 1

Here we go then, this is going to be me writing down my experiences within ZampanioSim-N. Can't be too hard, though my attention span may betray me.

Let's start it off simple, with a guide of sorts.

I'll give you some tips about my advice, to go through an area, you will need LOTS of items, lest you end up facing something you cannot beat. **It will always catch up.**

Certain classes impact the game itself, depending on what you choose, you may need to change stuff up, I advise that if you don't see **INVENTORY** as one of the possible menus, you go back and make a new seed, unless you want to play risky, though I'm not going that route, so that is a path you must walk alone.

This page is so infuriating, it keeps setting me back, deleting whole sections. Whatever, here is what you need to know, when you begin, you will see an achievement, it's useless for now, but keep note of it, click on options, depending on what is available, you can skim through this bit.

If you don't have anything noteworthy, then click on the skills menu, this is going to be your method of gaining additional menus, which are mostly pointless, except for the skill points THOSE give. Something simple, you will want to clear the whole first row of the skilltree, then, if you see **INVENTORY +1**, you really should get it, if you are using this as a guide instead of a simple way to pass the time. I trust those who can treat this lightly will know what they can do to progress without one.

When you get your inventory, you will need to head to the achievements menu in the top tab bar; click on EVERYTHING in there. once that's done, you can continue to other menus, now, in the skilltree, as some advice, never get the last skill, you can tell if you are at the last one if you check status and it says "Locked skills:1" That's a good thing, that means every menu upgrade you would need (and can possibly have in that run) is yours.

You should get the gist by now, go through everything except that last skill, easy stuff, more achievements if you want extra items, are to click 1000 times. and an achievement that most cannot access. without a particular skill I'm about to give you. Anyways to have gotten here to begin with, you will need to have "beaten the game" atleast once before, or have been given the link to the wiki. Point is, you SHOULD understand enough of this type to know what I mean

This next segment, wasting.

## Page 1

Now most people might not even be familiar with the term, but it's simple when you get to it, all you will need to know is how to use the "inspect element" developer tab, The most notable areas of importance are going to be "Elements" and "Console" At the VERY least, look over the stuff that is already expanded in the elements tab, the console can help you with the next step.

Everything is fucking up on this page, I don't understand,

Point is, you might need to figure it out yourself from there, don't be afraid to experiment, no truly permanent consequences available yet. sorry i'm being so quick here, time crunch, remember to have some restraint while wasting.
Spider

***"Spiders** (order **Araneae**) are air-breathing arthropods that have eight legs, chelicerae with fangs generally able to inject venom, and spinnerets that extrude silk. They are the largest order of arachnids and rank seventh in total species diversity among all orders of organisms. Spiders are found worldwide on every continent except for Antarctica, and have become established in nearly every land habitat. "*

Spiders spin webs.

Is it a trap or is it an artwork? It depends on how you look at it. Why couldn't it be both?

Usually goes in groups of threes. Not fours.

River

River is new and old and big and small. The slime of her body is confined to such a small space, just a handful of years, barely anything in the face of all of time and space. It chafes her, to be so restricted. She is doing her best. It's hard to care when everything is so big and small and nothing at all...

She does diary entries in the same monotone she collects pictures of bugs.

Traverses mazes counterclockwise.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0uxfHqGy4w&t=89s

She was a maid of space

*> can you tell us about river*

*You mean hole waifu? She's pretty much everywhere. You try not to dig into her on purpose cuz that tends to send you on a one way trip to the next loop. And then you end up missing your favorite episodes of all your favorite shows!*

*Ever since she spread out of that parking lot, digging sure has gotten a lot more spicy! She's great! PLUS you didn't really know her Before! Everyone wins! ~ Parker*

## From Parker Lot Lost

PEOPLE ROOM - This floor was where I got stuck. It's impossibly huge and the pillars are made of people. Our people. All locking hands. I think I saw Tim there. I don't know if there was even solid ground at the bottom of it. It felt like it just went on forever. The only way to go down was to grip onto their free hands. They were sticky and gooey the more I went on. At one point they became solid goo and all melted together into a sea of it. That's when I died.

I don't know if ANYONE lives here but frankly I don't even WANT to know. As far as I know this is the last floor and if anyone wants to take me up on that they can go down there themselves.
Quotidian Quorom: Survival Strategy

**Quotidian Quorom: Survival Strategy**

Congratulations for displaying the virtue of: Curiosity!

You may be asking yourself: "Just how do these idiot crow bois actually not go extinct in ten minutes? I've literally seen them 'investigate' a [REDACTED]'s waiting and open mouth. "

The key here is the fact that unlike most evolved sapient species, InQQuisitive Beings are R strategists!  This means that individual units are low quality, prone to death and just generally kind of idiots. The species survives as long as they can breed in numbers that overwhelm their own potential to walk right up to a Titan to get an interview.

Now, an obvious follow up question here is:  "If every individual inQQuisitive Being is a death prone idiot, how do they get ANYTHING done other than survival?"

The key lies in Swarm Intelligence. Even if 11 inQQuisitive Beings die gathering data, if the 12th makes it back to an InfoHoard with the data gathered by the first 11, the information is preserved. inQQuisitive Beings follow relatively simple rules that cause complex emergent behavior in the group as a whole.

If you get enough inQQuisitive Beings working at a problem, incredible progress may be made even while no individual inQQuisitive Being understands what is going on in its entirety or even working at cross purposes.

inQQuisitive Beings are roughly categorized by their strengths.  By far the bulk of inQQuisitive Beings have low levels of sentience, and could not be mistaken for sapient. They gather and report data with a singleminded focus.  Less commonly, you will find inQQuisitive Beings capable of basic processing of data, synthesizing conclusions from reports and forwarding them up the chain.  Most rarely, generally in the role of "Faction Leader", you will find inQQuisitive Beings capable of organizing and directing the efforts of the swarm as a whole. These beings take in vast amounts of highly processed data and form a high level "Executive Summary" to present to "Bestie" clients.  In the absence of a micromanaging "Bestie", faction leaders will even broadly direct the swarm towards goals that best fit with the priorities of the "Bestie".
Weave

Could be a method of referring to a tapestry, if one was under some sort of one syllable limit.

Regarding connections, if a spider were to map out connections between two ideas, then linked one of those ideas to a new one, and so on and so forth, she might find she's spun quite a Web indeed.

If a storm were to roll in, however, all that work might go to waste
RageMode

You do want to trigger it. It really makes the game memorable!!!

You trigger it by being a Waste. Its not enough to JUST be a Waste, you also need to do dumb things. Its easier to do dumb things if you know how to hack for real instead of waiting for the pretend game to hold your hand.

Once in RageMode the ThisisNotAGame stops pretending to be a game and instead pretends to not be a game. If you make it ThisIsAGame instead something new happens and it shows you the true shape of ZampanioSim. But that's even worse than RageMode. So you should do it!!!
History

So far, the timeline is:

- Pre-this-discord, mostly chatting in Farragospace, conceptualizing.

- The early days of this discord, when people were mostly just setting up worldbuilding.

- Late-pre-unmarked, when all the storylines started wrapping up and everyone went supernatural bullshit.

- Discord opening, the first unmarked arrive, wiki communications start happening.

- #zampaniosim days, when most events were going on in the FFD channel and the unmarked were starting to get called out.

- The Early Marked Era™️, when the Sparks started talking.

- The discovery of threads and the returnal of some of the Marked to chat and do mixed ARG shit and random shenanigans with the Unmarked, when everything really took off.

- Now, when things have dulled to a low roar and activity has started to fade.

It really does feel like a cycle. Slightly different every time, but still repeating the same major story beats. Starts small, gets bigger, dies down, repeat. First the Marked Era, then the Unmarked Era. Wonder what comes next?
Regula Draconis

Welcome to Regula draconis, a guide that will help you in understand dragons from taming, hunting, or even just dragon watching.

## Dragon identification

While dragons come in many different shapes and sizes it is noted that true dragons are long serpent like reptilians with 4 legs with two large wing like appendages made to glide. True dragons will also have 4 eyes and 4 horns which end in points just like a dryad for we and dragons share a common ancient ancestor in the line of evolution. Every dragon true or pseudo will be separated into the same 4 hatchright categories we have that being Air, Water, Fire, and Earth.
Zampanio

A game referenced by a creepy pasta on gamefaqs that JR can't find anymore. It was somehow both an rpg that tailored itself towards you and a malevolent(?) AI(?) that traps you in an eternal labyrinth. And somehow it ends the world? Maybe???

Its a really fun game. You should play it :) :) :)

If you can't play it, maybe you'll find a copy if you go looking. Sometimes the only way to look is to create.

Is it the epilogue? no

Some have used Zampanic as an adjective to describe things relating to or similar to Zampanio. Others have used the term Zammy.
Stopwatch

These mysterious objects can be found in the vents.
They are really helpful.

They show you the ť̸̳̯́ĩ̶̖͔͑m̴̘̞͌è̸̜̻̅.
It means that they are from a dimension where t̷̂̕i̶͕͌̅̈̃̈́m̷̨̪̝̣̲̩͓̓̓̉́͐͠e̷̙̰͓̓̋̿̾̑͘ still exist.

You could ask what time do they show.

The answer is... is...

20h:14m:36s !

5d:23h:17:04s !

4d:15h:21m:33s !

*AND THESE WERE THE WINNING NUMBERS OF THE WEEK, THANK YOU FOR FAITHFULLY PLAYING WITH US AGAIN!*
The Lake

A seemingly unremarkable lake, (if not for the 15 foot tall cyclops that rises out of it every so often) , contained within a room somehow, with many miscellaneous objects and creatures in it...Until you go below the surface; below the surface, resides what looks to be a large octopus, and attached where the legs of the aforementioned cyclops should be is a large writhing mass of tentacles stretching into the dark depths below. Trying to look towards the bottom results in no visible results, the bottom seems to be further down than is accessible to anyone other than the creature bearing the tentacles, considering moving past all of those tentacles would be nigh impossible, unless they made room.

During interactions with the cyclops, if she smiles, the mouth will wrap nearly entirely around the eye, the same occurs when she frowns, though on the top side. It can only be assumed that if this creature were to entirely open her mouth, the eye would be revealed to be attached to a sort of tongue instead of what would be previously assumed. If you try to talk to the creature below the lake, she insists that you would call her "The Lady of the Lake" though, accepts other titles such as "Kendall", "Mizumi", and "The Siren", She seems to be docile, though very capable.

Today, a remarkable happening has occured, the observable area of the lake has expanded deeper.
Stealing

"Could stealing be a virtue?", "Does 'thou shalt not steal' provide the maximum happiness to society when applied equally?", "If the owner of an objects derives happiness X from it, and there is another who would derive happiness 10X from it, is there a moral imperative to give the object to the non-owner? Or is it necessary to add the sadness the owner would have in the loss? If the sadness is less than 10X, does your answer change? More than?", "If the maximum happiness would be obtained for all through theft, is there a moral imperative towards theft?", "Would a society founded on the principal 'Thous must stela' survive long as a society?"
Tres Bottle

A simple glass milk bottle with a 3 emblazoned on it.

**Effect** :  If you write a concept on a scrap of paper and stuff it into the bottle, no one \*anywhere\* but you will be able to remember this exists. This can be as broad as "bananas" or as specific as "what happened the night of this murder".

**Mirror World Effect** : If you fill the bottle with liquid and dissolve all paper/ink inside then everyone will be aware of the concepts previously contained within it as "general knowledge" (even if they hadn't known about it before).

**Plot Consequences**:  The Cult of the Nameless One tried to keep Mr Lovettes robbery a sufficient Mystery (despite how much evidence they intentionally left behind) using the Tres Bottle.

The Mirror World uses the Bottle as a means to rapidly disseminate information, propaganda slogans and notices from the Association to its populace.

## Devona's dream

*"I don't... Okay um. This ride, uh, this ride is about INFORMATION? Like what if you could write something down somewhere and uh. Forget about. Just uh. Like a message in a bottle. And when you wrote it down just. Everyone knew? Everyone forever? Like you could invent whole things to be common knowledge? But if you destroyed the knowledge. Uh, like maybe filling the bottle with sea water and disolving the paper and ink, uh, then everyone would forget it too? Oh! How would you even know if you forgot a whole concept? What if there's whole colors we SHOULD be able to see but can't because its' gone?"*
ThisIsAGame

You monster. Fine. Play a game, but the consequences are yours. It never ends. Combined with Truth, you are NOT a monster.

Recommendation: It is best to play ThisIsAGame with minimal friends and also great wealth. The blessings of the gods would probably be useful, too.

I recommend you ignore the ~~minotaur~~.

You can probably use monsters to open doors which is...just delightful.

You can only reach it if you're willing to get your hands dirty. It's not enough to know where to LOOK, you must act!!!

If you got this far, you may as well visit the other places it leads to.
Unos Autograph Book

A tattered cardboard book filled with signatures with an ornate serif '1' embossed onto it.

**Effect**:  Started off the "Cultist of the Nameless One" sidequest.

**Mirror World Effect:**  ???

**Plot Consequences:**  [REDACTED] signed it in my playthrough and got a lot of buffs to bluffing in any Cult scenes.  There was some consequences to intra-party relationship scores, though.  We never reversed it so we didn't find out what it did in the Mirror World.

The Artifact of jr.

## Devona's dream

*"Um. I think this ride was about that time I saw an AUTOGRAPH BOOK And I realized that if you wrote your name in it it would be in there FOREVER and anyone who went to write their name in it would SEE IT unless I guess it was the next page and then I thought who wanted to be seen FOREVER like that and wouldn't it be much better if instead once you wrote in it you could never been seen again? But then I realized it wouldn't be YOU you it would just be your name and what would even be the point of just hiding your name?"*

X-Con

X-Con: Friends Unknown, also known as Week X of the Lavinraca Corn Maze was a fan-made edit by the Medium based on Week 1 and 2 of the Corn Maze. It followed the concept of a proper removal of the Scarecrow and Corn alongside themes of Dreams, Lies, and more.

It led to The Counterfeit God.

Spiral

Lies. Madness. Distortions. Spirals. Fractals. Twisting. Things that are not what they are. Mazes. Houses that are not houses. Books about books about movies about houses. Layers. Branches. Trees. Sand. Labyrinth. Shifting perspectives. Sand.

Games that not only are not games but do not fit into the confines of games.

Spiralling obsession can sand away everything that isn't your hyper focus. Leave you empty.
TiredTurbulence

Entered fourth after the one who screams i guess (the first Scribe).

What do they see? What are their thoughts.

Perhaps they will tell us here.

We see their feelings and we rejoice.

We see their thoughts and we rejoice. Our Scribe.

They posted their document here!

But will they tells us their story here? How did they find Zampanio? What drove them to create their document.

What secrets have they found? What theories have they created?

What do they dream they might have yet to find?

They used it to create JR and NotAMinotaur 's clownsona.

Found zampanio through the farrago server and fell headfirst into it- found nam through the server in the credits
Tyrfing

He is the Warrior of Destroyed Hope.

*"Nidhogg's Forsaken Follower, a copy of a copy of a copy.*

*Spiraling unending life has little place in a world of spiraling unending thoughts.*

*Nidhogg's chosen Universe is barred forever to him, and his Follower is powerless.  Corruption does not spread here, and even the Children wither and vanish.*

*Only Rod, Rebel and Melon remain, clones hateful to Tyfings eyes, yet protected by those far more powerful than he.*

*Wigglersim does not allow clone spam, after all."*

*"Is it okay that I really don't like that guy who has all those baby faced worms?" you ask, testing the waters.*

*"It's not good." they say as one.*

The Harvest

*"Praise me. Spread my word. Show more of those like you to me. Depict me, write me, sing my praises. I am all that you love, and the loss of it all as well-- surely you wouldn't sacrifice all which you hold dear on a whim, right? And maybe, after all of this is done. You could remember this... fondly."*

The Harvest (they or she) is the culmination of all the sacrifices made during Lavinraca, those meant to be possible and those not. The Harvest is everything there, including the Corn Maze itself. They appeared in the 4th Week of Lavinraca, a dialogue with them replacing the Corn Maze wandering activity available the previous weeks.

During Week 4, they took breaks at noon and midnight, not saying more than a simple message asking you to leave.

They dislike Truth, the Scarecrow, and the 'Week X' maze--a fanmade mod of the maze created by the Medium--seeing the first two as intrusions, parasites which eat away at their mind from the inside.

And the last? They see it as a corruption of something already long corrupted. They claim to have no ill will to the Medium, only to their creation.

Their funeral began before even their death. They rest, they slumber. You may visit them, but they may not say much. Those more inclined to wastehood may see remnants of their past, buried deep within.

Its domain is incomplete. Its story is incomplete. You can help by **expanding** it. Create something. Write about it. Write to it. Anything.
PuzzledPlayer

Causer of apocalypses, confused and curious about the secrets Zampanio holds. They try to stay on what they believe to be the main path, to get to the 'end', no matter the cost. Not much in terms of identity yet, they aren't even much of an individual unless you make them so. Unlike some other things that involve your changing them to be what they aren't, puzzledPlayer is fine with this. Turns out existing as more than a vessel for a person to project onto is nice.

Design note: question marks are default, exclamation points when surprised or scared, an ellipsis when deep in thought, tired or otherwise appropriate. Just sorta go with what feels right.
Farrago Fraydio

## Farrago Fraydio radio podcasts

Videos and live broadcasts on JR's Youtube channel contain secret (and non-secret) music, as well as what seems to be radio podcasts. They can be listened to as farragofiction AudioLogs, each one contains an answer to a previous riddle, and nearly all of them contain a riddle on their own, theoretically forming a riddle-chain. The Catalyst has been mapping these riddle chains out and attempting to sort them in their google doc. Do not be fooled into thinking in linearity. Time doesn't exist and there are twists and spirals along the way. You have been warned.

According to JR in radio\_the\_yellow\_yard, this radio show is important - but I bet they're a liar.

### Contents of audiologs

Each broadcast starts with the greeting "Dearest listener", and a question of whether they have been eagerly anticipating the answer to last podcast's riddle. This question references a time supposedly spent between each podcast, but the times are non linear and most likely don't make sense. They vary from "yesterday's riddle", to "last month's" to "tomorrow's". Trying to map these in a timeline would be insane.

After an answer is given, two types of a broadcast can happen:

1. the speaker then goes onto a pseude-philosophical gigglesnorty hideytalk about a theme related to the answer, sometimes branching out to more broad concepts. (Note one exception, radio\_nothing.) It will then end with another riddle, sending you to the next podcast in the chain.
2. JR will say "the spirits tell me the answer to your question", and will proceed to loudly announce I AM HAVING A VISION! and tells a description of a farragnarok lamia, says a lucky number and color, and a horoscope prediction they pretty much pulled out of their ass. Then the "spirits" will give you another riddle. (Funny exception: radio\_a\_musician)

These two types seem to be separate branches. So far no "beggining" to these riddle chains have been found, but we have two ending podcasts (not containing any continuing riddle): radio\_nothing and radio\_when\_opened\_both\_are\_read.
Septum Coin

An old bronze coin. There is a theater mask on one side, and a 7 on the other.

**Effect** :  Anyone holding it is considered to be unremarkable and perfectly normal and expected for wherever they are.

**Mirror World Effect** : When reversed, anyone holding it will stand out horribly in crowds and be extremely obviously out of place.

**Plot Consequences**:  It turned out that the Judge had this coin at all times (besides one scene), which is why he was so unremarkable. You could not remark on him.  [REDACTED] had used it to try to steal the OCTOME as well, which is why he wasn't caught even after the bodies were discovered (even though people can recount him as being at the scene no one considered it weird).

In the Mirror World, visitors are required to hold coins minted from the Septum Coin, which have a dulled version of its effect, so that the Association can "keep an eye" on them in particular.

## Devona's dream

*"This ride is uh, probably about this weird coin I dreamed about? It had like, one of those theater masks on one side, the kind where they can be happy or sad and that's supposed to warn you about whats in the play except these days everyone just shows BOTH Of them to just mean 'theater' instead of telling anyone whats inside and then its entirely useless just because they showed you too much but on the OTHER side of this coin was the number 7 and uh, the coin would make it so you were supposed to be wherever you were and no one would yell at you or tell you you had to leave and sometimes I wish I had that coin but also uh. Oh. Um. Nevermind."*
Weaver

A Weaver finds the connections between disparate things. In their Ascended form, they use those connections to create. Past that, they use those connections to tug the Unmarked along a path of obsession. "This connects to this connects to this: don't stop yet, you almost see the big picture. Keep going."

It is not enough to merely do, you must be Seen.

TODO Pile

List of things JR might do:

* zampaniosim quests
* tvtrope article for zampaniosim, (includes a few pws)
* more ao3 content
* more audio log threads
* truths quiz leads to them assigning you a title.
* blackbirds cipher
* redirect LitRPGSimE to something ominous
* rewrite fractalsim to be javascript, integrate to farrago fraydio
* pressing 'esc' too many times has menu crash, NotASpiral revealted and it panicking and turning on the credits
* subtitles only unlock as you unlock skills
* weave in all fan paths for zampanio sim

Feel free to add things to this pile here and JR may do it. Especially add any paths you've created you'd like more official integration with.
Time

There are people that believe time does not exist and there are people that believe it does. Whatever the case, time is like a river that splits into many branches.

"If you conceptualize time to be a river, consider the ox bow lake. When a river loops in on itself enough it can pinch off a little circle entirely seperate from the main river. A paradoxical river that creates itself and yet can never escape itself.", "An actual infinite cannot exist. All things end in time.", "One must ask oneself: what accounts for time's apparently unidirectional flow, whether times other than the present moment exist, and questions about the nature of identity (particularly the nature of identity over time).", "Focus on a number of basic issues, including whether time and space exist independently of the mindand whether they exist independently of one another.", "While such ideas have been central to philosophy from its inception, the philosophy of space and time was both an inspiration for and a central aspect of early analytic philosophy."
Wanda

The CEBro of Eyedol games.

She is the Lord of Known Space.

You can learn more about her in the East.

*"Wanda? Well. What is there to say about her. Why should she be the only character in this face with a 'True Name?'. All are reflections of a Truth, but none are of themselves True. Why feed your attention there. Why did your gaze move so swiftly from the North? Will you stay here? With me?"*

*"Wanda's first appearance was this Zampanio/Magnus Archives cross over fic: https://archiveofourown.org/works/34647190   (I actually wrote that one and just treated it as a rando, cuz that was back when I was trying to encourage people more? )  Plus...It actually was the first fanfiction I ever wrote, and I was nervous, I'll admit. I based the Magnus Archives opening off that dream avatar game? But once it got in it was more about emphasizing Wanda's obsession and how it helps nothing, and certainly not what they thought was WORTH of their obsession.  It IS still fan fiction though, more Magnus Archives than Zampanio. But I like that it gave me the concept of shortening the Wanderer's name to Wanda.  And from THERE I realized that if they have two names, why not three?  Why not have them be the Creator of the Quotidians, their odin?  Norse gods are ALWAYS changing gender anyways. Don't worry about it."*

Nidhogg

Wants you to grow trees, add branches eternal. You shall never die inside their Realm. Spreads Corruption in the form of rampant weeds and disease.

Before becoming Corrupted, was a friendly flower boi who just wanted to help out and felt REALLLLLY bad about hurting Yggdrasil. If only they could gnaw at its roots while also not hurting the tree???

After becoming Corrupted wants to be the creator of a corrupted Universe.

Nidhogg messes with time loops, and each iteration is meant to serve her better. And since Peewee is the doom player, he can remember all previous, failed timelines.
