History FanFic / OfficialFanfictionUniversity

Hey, check it out! The Fandom's {{Fanfic}} is suffering from SturgeonsLaw! [[RougeAnglesOfSatin Terrible spelling]] [[WantonCrueltyToTheCommonComma and grammar]] is everywhere, {{Mary Sue}}s are making everyone {{OOC}} and {{Squick}}y pairings are being written! We should do something!

* BerserkButton: [[Literature/{{Redwall}} Stiffener Medick]] is fed up with jokes about his UnfortunateName. He's even threatened [[WebOriginal/ProtectorsOfThePlotContinuum Agent]] [[AnythingThatMoves Luxury]] over it.

[[FanFic/TheOfficialFanfictionUniversityOfMiddleEarth First done]] by Camilla Sandman for [[Franchise/TolkiensLegendarium Middle-Earth]] in 2002, offsprings quickly started spawning everywhere. Originally these fanfiction universities required Sandman's approval to become "official", but now you're fine writing one as long as you mention Miss Cam anywhere, and don't write a blatant ripoff.

** Sometimes this produced other things; at the [[Theatre/{{Cats}} OFU, the Heaviside Lair[[labelnote:*:]]instead of "Layer"[[/labelnote]] was a staff room and the Russile[[labelnote:*:]]instead of Russell[[/labelnote]] Hotel became a second pen for mini-Pollicles.

** Of the student at the Literature/{{Redwall}} OFU who sang the Hedgehog song[[labelnote:*:]]A song by Creator/SirTerryPratchett all about bestiality[[/labelnote]], they did not find all the pieces.

* RougeAnglesOfSatin: All [=OFUs=] are guarded by mini-versions of a particular animal or enemy from the series, e.g. [[LordOfTheRings Balrogs]], [[Franchise/HarryPotter Acromantulas]], or [[VideoGame/{{Myst}} Camoudiles]]. They are spawned whenever a misspelling occurs of a proper name in that continuum, a practice that subsequently spread to the [[WebOriginal/ProtectorsOfThePlotContinuum PPC]].

All [=OFUs=] share a multiverse with the WebOriginal/ProtectorsOfThePlotContinuum. [=PPC=] agents have dropping by their favorite Official Fanfiction University to "help" since Jay and Acacia visited ''FanFic/TheOfficialFanfictionUniversityOfMiddleEarth The Official Fanfiction University of Middle-Earth''.

'''Tropes:'''

** At the ''Theatre//{{Cats}}'' OFU, a jelly monster ran amok on Halloween, killing several of the students (but see DeathIsCheap below).

* GratuitousJapanese: Sakura, a catgirl at the ''Literature/{{Redwall}} OFU, spoke in it, as did a fanfic-generated character replacement for Eedrah at the ''VideoGame/{{Myst}}'' OFU.

** Of course, students don't get special powers, as a student who signed up as a [[VideoGame/{{Myst}} Bahro]] complained.

* BerserkButton: [[Literature/{{Redwall}} Stiffener Medick]] is fed up with jokes about his UnfortunateName. He's even threatened [[WebOriginal ProtectorsOfThePlotContinuum Agent]] [[AnythingThatMoves Luxury]] over it.

* ComedicSociopathy: Some of the treatment of the students crosses into this.

* ExactWords: The applications take a fiendish delight in {{Deconstructing}} the flowery prose of their "applicants". For instance, one of said writers who said she had "creamy" skin arrived in [[{{Myst}} the D'ni cavern]] with [[BodyHorror literal cream for skin]].

* ComedicSociopathy: Some of the treatment of the students cross into this.

* FisherKingdom: Any [=OFU=] for a world with nonhuman sentients will ask "race" on the entrance application. Any fanfic author who fills in [[Creator/JRRTolkien "Elf"]] or [[Franchise/StarTrek "Vulcan"]] on the form ''will'' be transformed into a member of that race while in attendance.
