Chapter Text
Hello! Writer ThaCataBoi here to give you some explaining, because this work definitely needs it. If you’re one of my friends who already knows all of this, skip this chapter and the next.
First of all, real quick “disclaimers”: Tone and quality will vary wildly depending on what’s happening. This wasn’t originally designed for Ao3, as I’ll explain in a moment, and while I tried to make it more consistent since I now have full control over the story, I am still completely insane so this will not be a very serious fanfic except in the REALLY important parts. While there won’t be anything very NSFW here, I do swear a lot (not Vivziepop level, but it may get annoying to some), so just comment if you want me to tone the fuckshits down a little.
Now, some backstory: I’ve been on Discord for many years now, and when I was 11 (I know, against Discord ToS, but I didn’t give a damn at the time) and still new to everything I found a very interesting server called Survivor. It was a roleplay server, where people would use the Tupperbox bot to make 5 characters per user fight each other in, you probably guessed it, Survivor-style. I loved this idea, so I naturally joined.
However, there was one big problem. The owner of the server, as well as a few of the other people, were completely batshit insane, and not in the fun way. I won’t say too much, but this server was the first place I ever saw porn. At age 11.
Yeah that server sucked, but I had the sense to leave pretty fast, and luckily I wasn’t traumatized for the rest of my life, but I still blame that server for helping make a big part of my life and personality. And the reason is…
After I left, I reflected that I loved the idea of Survivor, but I hated the people in it. So naturally, I made my own, inviting my best friend at the time and 3 people who I knew almost nothing about except that they like roleplaying, and made my own, called Furvivor.
We had 5 “seasons”, so to speak, but Season 6 got cancelled because I wanted to start over! A lot of the stuff that happened was weird, and that world wasn’t in a great spot, so I made some characters create a new universe and the real world equivalent was to make a new server! Thus, Furvivor Rebooted was born.
Furvivor Rerebooted isn’t a third server that I made, but rather me remaking Furvivor Rebooted for Ao3. The characters are the same, the elimination order is the same, and most of the plot points are the same, but now more people can see my masterpiece.
There will be 5 seasons, each its own work. A chapter will consist of a challenge, an elimination, and any interactions before the challenge or before the elimination.
As I said above, quality will vary wildly, but characters may not act the same as in their source material, depending on how much I know about them and also who they were used by in the original server. There’s also a few “original characters” made off of generic enemies from games like Mario, Minecraft and especially Pokémon.
There is also no intentional main character for most seasons.
There may be a main villain or a character that gets a bit more screen time, but never a main protagonist.
Me (the writer) and you (the reader) are sort of characters. My narration can be heard by certain characters, but it’s mostly just used for gags. The characters that can do that are also aware of the fact that their in a fanfic and that they’re being read, but they obviously can’t communicate with you like with me.
There is a very cool rock that is wielded by the characters from the old server (more on them in Meet the Cast), and an identical one wielded by the host. There’s 2 because they’re from different universes, but both give basically limitless power. The only limit is that it can’t do everything at once. For example, it can’t simply erase the universe, but it can create something designed for that purpose, or just erase it very slowly. Small tasks, though, like moving a boulder telekinetically, can be done easily, though. If one has it for long enough, my voice can be heard and that one will become self-aware, and from that point onward, that one will be cursed with this knowledge.
I think that’s all, so you can go to Meet the Cast or just skip to the actual story! I don’t mind either, but certain characters will be a little confusing if I don’t introduce them to you first.
Have fun! You probably won’t, but I hope you do anyways!
