Style Guide

General Guidelines

 * Avoid excessive use of future tense, e.g. "When thrown, these objects will ignite in a bright blue flash.". Use present tense for general description and instead write "When thrown, these objects ignite in a bright blue flash.".
 * Avoid unnecessary prefacing language, e.g. "Note that it is also possible to.." or "Interestingly it is also possible to..". Avoid padding sentences out and instead write "It is also possible to...".
 * Use American English orthography, e.g. "color" over "colour", "center" over "centre", and "defense" over "defence".
 * Use double quotation marks only when quoting or otherwise referring to in-game dialogue or text, e.g. "I think I know what you are looking for." over 'I think I know what you are looking for.', and They are edible when 'popped'... over They are edible when "popped"
 * Treat all creatures, places, and objects (basically everything with a wiki page unless specified otherwise) as proper nouns, e.g. "Slugcats are both the primary protagonists..." over "The slugcat is both the primary protagonist..."
