Rule drafts eh? I think I can help with the task.

This would be the rough draft I'd probably write if I was running the wiki.

1. Give solid, reasonable explanations on why your verse has reached to their current level of power. In otherwords, when lore writing laws of physics will be broken but not to bullshit extremes. Put differently, all OC verses need extensive explanations on why some of the laws of normal earth physics can be broken. The staff reserve the right to ask for proof such as in story canon proof or citations from academic articles and wikipedia cannot be used as a source.

Examples of unacceptable reasons:

"My verse is strong because of plot"

"My OC is strong cause power"

Examples of acceptable reasons:

"My OC can manipulate gravitational constants"

Here the reason is acceptable since logically put you rewrite the concept of numbers to give

your character possibly casual flight abilities.

"My OC can deploy computers to further her magic capabilities"

Here this reason is acceptable because if I were the admin, I can find possible academic citations or citations from reputatble computer science texts such as Kleinberg Tardos and Cormen, to better understand why the said OP thought up of said power in the first place.

"My OC was struggling hard against a character stronger tierwise than him and thus got to tier 2-C"

This one is straightforward, the character probably underwent an entire hell fight to defeat his opponent and thus there is story based reasoning.

2. Users should avoid powers that rely heavily on NLFs. That is what is meant by immunities vs resistances, and what does the word "absolute" mean in the scope of the verse itself. Put differently, any powers that can be potentially seen as NLF need to have a solid proper explanation.

3. Users if asked should be able to explain their verse's mechanics in terms of others.

Example ability:

Longinus Condemner:

The more corrupt my opponent is based on the wielder's defintion of corrupt based on moral affliation, the more accurate the spear is.

If an admin asked me on why this abilitiy isn't BS I would say its a reversed version of Brynhilder's Romantia except it targets accuracy rather than destructive power.
