3''Ulti's Bar & Grill'' is a roleplay based in the Minecraft Forums and then moved to Discord. It was founded by the user [=Ultimation12=], in December 2013. [[https://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/off-topic/forum-games/forum-roleplaying/440488-ultis-bar-grill-hangout-roleplay-moved-to-discord The forum link, including Discord invitation link, is here]].

5The roleplay started out as a generic hang-out roleplay, into which various people put their characters from whatever world they felt like. However over time it became more and more plot driven, with an overarching story emerging and several arcs splitting away from the main story. The rules however haven't changed, with characters coming from any and all worlds. These include established series, such as the ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' series, or entirely unique worlds such as those of the Dark Legion.

7!!''Ulti's Bar & Grill'' contains examples of:
8* AnachronismStew: Everything. Characters from the far future meet characters from a steampunk past meet medieval wizards. Expect absolutely no technological consistency.
9* ApocalypseHow: Class X-5. Ulti the bar owner took part in a massive war, which ended up destroying both his and several other people's dimensions. Never talk to him about it.
10* AscendedExtra: Guy, the standard mook, who was pulled into the spotlight and is now a semi-important part of the Legion world.
11%%* Beastman: The bar's owner, Ult, comes from a universe of such.
12* CanonDiscontinuity: [[invoked]]Due to OldShame of the creator, the original OneTruePairing of Ulti X Mayhem has been decreed as non-canon.
13* CerebusSyndrome: Towards the beginning, there was little to no true story, and all events took place within the bar proper. That no longer holds true.
14* CharacterDevelopment: Plenty of it. Ult himself gets married and begins to recover from his past, and Sayuri of the Dark Legion learns that emotions can in fact be good, both make good examples.
15* DeadlyUpgrade: Dakarr of the Dark Legion uses a shadow sacrifice to grant him immense power and speed, but at the cost of his life.
16* DeusExMachina: There's a box with one inside of it in the bar's storage, which will be involved in the roleplay's end. Also Chesed's light teleporter capable of pulling him straight out of any situation that would normally kill him. Of course, it doesn't always make his situation that much better.
17%%* HumanoidAliens: Most of the Dark Legion, Ult himself to a degree, and the Organeers of the Alpha world.
18* ImplausibleFencingPowers: Rune Tynan, and in fact any character with a sword as a main weapon will almost surely be able to do some fairly ridiculous stuff with it.
19* InnBetweenTheWorlds: The bar itself exists in every reality and possibility, somewhere.
20* LittleBitBeastly: Ult's daughter, Julie. Being half fox and half human, she has fox ears, but is otherwise human in appearance.
21* MonsterAllies: Endie is a more recent example, considering he is part of a certain species of creatures that will try to kill anyone that so much as make direct eye contact with them.
22* RunningGag: The stairs to the first floor are theorized as cursed, since people fall down them so often. Done to the point of someone turning the fall into some kind of acrobatic display.
23* SwordSparks: The anti-energy sword literally emits sparks when activated.
24* TournamentArc: An arc based on a tournament called The Ultima Games has been announced by the GM.
