## About

INK Camp S1 is the first camp series and the 7th season of the entire INK Series.

INK is a traditional object camp which contains a total of 24 contestants (adding the debuters). The winner of the season will get a Mystic Paintbrush, known to create anything that is painted with the brush.

The camp operates like so: A challenge is released and operates by the "Triple 5" rule (not associated with the angelic sign.) , meaning it goes on until 5 days and ends in 5:00 PM Mountain Time. 1-2 hours after the challenge, results come in. The team with the fewest percentage, or the person that did not make it to 1st or 2nd is put up for DM voting. It lasts until 5:00 PM and then the elimination starts with either a solo elimination or a double elimination. This cycle repeats until there is one left, who wins the prize.

## Lore (Simplified)

It all started on August 1st, 2023 when binary codes started appearing on #camp-billboard, leading to something approaching to the INK Island.

Then during challenges 5-6 Win Token and Controller started to post more binary codes revealing something menacing coming their way. In the process of storytelling, Fuz, Woody, Win Token, and Ring Light started to become affected with some kind of anomaly mutating them, controlling their body in the process.

Operation: ORION then was teased in Challenge 5 (Collect three genuine Moonite) and Challenge 6 (Create an exact replica of the bottom part of the collider). Then after elimination 6, the operation was now put into place. [SEE OPERATION:ORION FOR DETAILS ON THE EVENT]

The fight is now over, but it left the islands of INK in shambles. During that time, Fuz and Zie started to transport to the Greater INK Island for help with Meilis and her harbour group.
