Writing guide of "Project Aidita"
Now that you've been reading writing guide of Project Aidita, we'll assume that you already know or are familiar with the concept of "parallel universes" and have read the above.
Parallel universes represent infinite possibilities — the same person can have different identities in different parallel universes, and Foundations do the same.In some universes, foundations are on the right side; In some universes, the foundation may be a related organization that threatens the world, and the Cogwork Orthodox Church is the world orthodoxy.On top of that, Project Aidita exists to give you the opportunity to write the story of foundations in different parallel universes and how they interact.
Next, we will explain in detail what to pay attention to in several types of creation on Project Aidita.
Anomaly Entry
SCP documentation has always been central to the foundation's creation, as it is for Project Aidita. The whole idea of Project Aidita evolved from the document [[SCP-CN-146]], although the author originally wanted to write about a man-eating container.
Although Project Aidita encourages different authors to develop different storylines on stories, for SCP documents associated with them, we want them to exist independently of the individual storylines — which is why we have set exception items in a separate page.
A single anomaly item (or SCP document) should be able to stand on its own, as opposed to a story with a cohesive plot.This is not to say that your exception items should be short or not tied to your story, but that your items should have their own complete story structure.This way, even readers who have never read the story will be able to read your entry without difficulty, and the entry itself can even be used in multiple storylines.
The contents of the exception entry can occur at any time in the background of Project Aidita - if you are in doubt about what this means, please read the 【Peripheral Stories > Storyline】 section of this guide.
Of course, don't forget to add your Project Aidita exception entry to this page in the numerical order of the anomaly number - the reason we didn't use automatic references was to preserve the "golden sentence" section! That will make the page look cooler.
Peripheral Stories
Write out your idea of a parallel universe! For this part, it is worth noting that:
We never stipulated that the story of Project Aidita should be based on the current world.In fact, you can do whatever you want with anything we don't specify. Your stories can be standalone or serial.
Other than that, you just have to do what you do best: tell your readers a good story.
Separate Stories
"Standalone Stories" are those Project Aidita stories that are not part of any storyline and are created solely based on the information contained in Project Aidita Overview. Standalone stories can take place at any time in the setting of Project Aidita — if you have any doubts about what this means, please read the 【Peripheral Stories > Storyline】 section of this guide.
After you post your story, don't forget to add it to the "Separate Stories" tab in the bottom half of this page.
Storyline
Instead of writing individual stories, some writers prefer to use a series of connected stories to create a more complete and clear setting and plot development. The concept of a "storyline" is created for a series of stories that are connected to each other
Project Aidita may have a very different story script for different authors: some will see the collapse of Aidita Space as an accident, others as an invasion from outside.Some authors set travel between parallel universes as absolutely impossible; For some writers, travel across parallel universes is an inevitable consequence of Project Aidita and the necessity of the plot.Some of the stories focused on the foundation's diplomacy in the various universes in the early days of Project Aidita, while others preferred to write about the Foundation's expedition to explore the new world after the formation of a storm in a parallel universe.
So when you have your own detailed idea of the overall story of Project Aidita, don't hesitate to write it down.In addition to a few fixed events, the stage of the story, the direction of the plot and the cause and effect behind these events are entirely determined by the different story writers.In other words, any writer can create a new storyline for a story he or she has in mind — you don't have to match your story to an existing one.For example, in the "Enemy" storyline, most of the story takes place around the Site-CN-06. When you're creating a new story and storyline, you don't have to follow it at all.
Now for a bit more prescriptionality: No matter what the details of your storyline are, the setting/story must not violate three fixed events:
- The beginning of Project Aidita:The Foundations of the parallel universes make contact through the Aidita Interspace.
- At the time, no Foundation had the technology to travel directly to other parallel universes;No Foundation has ever told anyone that it has the technology to travel directly to another parallel universe.
- Project Aidita had a history of mishaps:The Aidita Interspace collapsed, creating a storm between parallel worlds.
- The storm can be a Keter anomaly, or it can be a natural phenomenon that the Foundation can easily eliminate.
- We didn't say what would happen if we lost something in this past storm, like some probes and survey boats.
- We don't have a rule on why the Aidita Interspace collapsed.
- Project Aidita was frozen for a time due to the collapse of the Aidita Interspace.
- It could be a sign of deteriorating relations between Foundations in different parallel universes, or it could just be a simple intermission because everyone is tired.
Of course, we said your exception items and stories can take place at any time in the setting of Project Aidita. Not everyone can predict the future, so if you write a story that takes place before a fixed event in time, it really doesn't need to mention that fixed event.For example, if you want to write about the beginning of Project Aidita, you don't have to mention the collapse of the Aidita Interspace.But if your story takes place after certain fixed events — those events may not play a significant role in your storyline, but they need to exist within the context of the story.Again, we do not specify when these events occur, when they are spaced, what causes them, and what effects they have.So just make sure your storyline says, "Ah, it looks like these things did happen."
To create a storyline, you must have at least two works in your storyline.Until then, the only work in that storyline can only be placed as a standalone work in the "Separate stories" tab.When creating a new storyline, create a new page and try to write a few quotes at the beginning of the page.The arrangement of the internal pages of different storylines is entirely up to the author of that storyline, and you can use it however you want.
If you have multiple interconnected works that don't have a detailed secondary setting for Project Aidita, you can still put them all in the "Separate stories" section if you wish.
The use of story settings
We find that from time to time authors who are interested in Project Aidita are put off by the idea of collaboration because "these parallel universes are too troublesome".In fact, The setting of Project Aidita is not complicated: love's plan a set of only the current page's "Project Aidita outline", the contents of any other page including related anomaly entries, the stories (and
the data center which will be mentioned in the following passage) are the detailed content in the other authors in a setting on the basis of the creation of the second set.
Project Aidita exists as a canon. This means that each writer has considerable freedom to create his or her own story, to establish his or her own design within the larger framework.But before Project Aidita officially becomes a "canon",a number of works have been accumulated under the setting, and reading these works will help you quickly grasp the tone and style of the setting.We don't need to point out what works are required to read in this setting, just that when you decide to write your own document of Project Aidita, you should have grasped, or at least understood, the tone of the setting.That's what makes a setting independent of this setting.That is, you need to at least have a good grasp of "reality", parallel universes and other commonly used concepts in this setting, the theme style style and specific logic consistency is the most important.For example: we do not want to see a simple "God" in the way, you should hold the most basic scientific spirit to explore, to explain the existence of this "god"; This is to say: __ "god" may exist, but "divinity" should be stripped as far as possible __; A work that overemphasizes "divine" would be inappropriate here.
The current story set in Project Aidita (here refers to the original main storyline, the "enemy" storyline) takes place in a relatively recent period from the end of the 20th century to the present.Under this main concept, Project Aidita has even been on hold for several years. Of course, we are not saying that Project Aidita is truly dead under the dominant worldview.After Project Aidita froze, it's just that our connection to the other parallel universes became thin.What's more, you could conceivably imagine a scenario in which Project Aidita is still in operation — because the nature of Project Aidita is parallel universes.But what we should see is that this "freeze" laid a foundation for the work.The golden age of Project Aidita almost coincided with the Cold War, but unlike the Cold War, there was an open academic environment within Project Aidita, and the Foundation achieved many results during this period.However, after our first cursory exit from the project, the new reboot was short-lived, and it remains "frozen" so far.We should see that the idea of Project Aidita offers not only the possibilities of the future, but also the possibilities of the past,and how to excavate and application, select a network with the computer has not been popular era as the background, or on the basis of the current information explosion of the world in the near future as the background, how to expand and dig is the freedom of the author.It's up to each writer to expand and delve deeper, and the canon itself is based on a parallel universe.Although cross-latitude travel across parallel universes is impractical under the main worldview set up by Project Aidita, the way the parallel universes interact still offers us a new perspective,the possibilities contained in this setting of Project Aidita are undoubtedly multi-directional and free.
Because of the subtlety of the "parallel universes" genre, it makes sense that every author of Project Aidita has his own set of secondary Settings.You can always create your own second setting, which is the embodiment of our slogan "Create Infinite Possibilities".You can also use existing secondary Settings that you think are good, and many authors are generous with sharing their Settings.To avoid confusion about the Settings you use in your story, here are two suggestions that might be useful: link to/briefly explain the Settings you use in your story; Use the comments or comments section to list and explain the Settings of others used in your writing.
In short, the creative bar for Project Aidita may not be as high as you think.
Derivative engineering and Knowledge from Aidita
The data center is where authors of Project Aidita store their ideas and complementary content, divided into "Derivative engineering of Project Aidita" and "Knowledge from Aidita".
Please try not to delete or massively alter (including changing engineering or technical serial numbers) content that has been added to the data center, as other authors may have already worked with it.At the same time, it means that these "Derivative engineering of Project Aidita" and "Knowledge from Aidita" should not have an obvious storyline.
Please pay attention:You are free to post your original content in the hub,but by posting it on this page you are giving permission for others to use it in their work (including works not based on Project Aidita),and they do not have to specifically identify the original author of the concept.And in exchange,it will be the same for you.
In order to avoid duplication of content and keep the page clean, the canon lead may edit the content of the data center in a format or change the content after contacting the original author.
Derivative engineering of Project Aidita
"Derivative engineering of Project Aidita" is the ideas that have been written down in connection with Project Aidita. In terms of design, these are the engineering projects carried out by the Foundation based on Project Aidita; In reality, these are the fragments of ideas left by the authors of Project Aidita in order to inspire themselves and others. Feeling an Epiphany? Write them down in engineering records.
You can add your project to an existing category folder by content type, or create a new category for your project by format.
Knowledge from Aidita
This section is used to store supplementary content. "Knowledge from Aidita" means "science and technology derived from Project Aidita".It is actually all kinds of black technology obtained by the Foundation from Aidita Project.However how to say black technology also needs to have a "black" limit, so things like "star destroyer" which has no edge had better not be taken out……
This section can also be edited freely, but only if it follows a pre-existing format.
Endless number, born of thy hand.
May Aidita be with us.
