1 | A chat-based roleplay between a group of friends held on the ''VideoGame/StarCraftII'' GameMod known as the Cortex Roleplaying Engine. World Of Omni follows the exploits of several characters of varying degrees of morality. |
2 | |
3 | The central plot follows a mildly dysfunctional group of [[VillainProtagonist Villain Protagonists]] headed by [[ManipulativeBitch Mariska]] - an [[EvilSorcerer Evil Sorceress]] with ambitions for the powerful [[TheEmpire Eastern Empire]]. She is accompanied by [[TheDragon Dianatronoka]], a [[BloodKnight violent]] and [[DontYouDarePityMe stubborn]] [[OurDragonsAreDifferent red dragon]], and Halian, a HumanoidAbomination in the guise of a young boy. |

5 | The world they live in is [[FantasyKitchenSink extremely chaotic]], filled to bursting with all manner of [[OurElvesAreDifferent elves]], [[OurDwarvesAreAllTheSame dwarves]], [[TheUndead undead]], [[OurDemonsAreDifferent demons]], [[EldritchAbomination eldritch abominations]] and aspiring [[EvilOverlord dark lords]]. What isn't ruled by established nations is split up into dozens of [[MicroMonarchy tiny, independent fiefdoms]], which generally spend their time fighting the self-proclaimed 'forces of darkness' and each-other for various reasons. |

7 | Simply put, its the kind of world created when a near-random group of 7-14 total strangers, with varying levels of [[WritingPitfallIndex skill]]/[[GenericDoomsdayVillain creativity]]/[[MarySueTropes common sense]] and conflicting ideas, [[HilarityEnsues get together in one lobby]], and the World Of Omni group [[StylisticSuck simply wove it into their own setting]] as an excuse to give some rather blatant LampshadeHanging for comedy. [[TakeThat Often at the expense of those same people]]. |

13 | !!World Of Omni canonically displays these tropes: |
14 | |
15 | * AdvancedAncientAcropolis : Nagarthim ruins. Mind you, [[RagnarokProofing most of their technology]] [[AvertedTrope is just as ruined as the buildings themselves]], and the few well-preserved items have long since been snatched up by adventurers and thieves. |
16 | * ArchaeologicalArmsRace : Mariska begins one herself, by gradually recovering and restoring {{Precursor|s}} {{Magitek}} to provide an edge over her enemies. |
17 | * CitadelCity : [[ShiningCity Talmain]] has high, solid stone walls and only one entrance. There's even two higher tiers (with the imperial palace at the top) with equally sheer sides - and again, only one way to get up each level. The [[AwesomeButImpractical impracticality]] of this layout, given the considerable jogging distance between each tier threshold, is only acknowledged in passing. |
18 | * DeadpanSnarker : The main trio all get in on this, [[LampshadeHanging especially when it comes to pointing out the little details]]. |
19 | * TheEmpire : The [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Eastern Empire]] is a fairly benevolent example. |
20 | * EvilVersusEvil : |
21 | ** [[VisionaryVillain Mariska]] versus [[TheSocialDarwinist Viraashakara]]. |
22 | ** Later, Mariska versus [[OurDemonsAreDifferent Junae]]. |
23 | * FantasyKitchenSink : Anything goes in this setting, to the point of coming up with [[OurMonstersAreDifferent New Races As The Plot Demands]]. |
24 | * GreenRocks : [[ImportedAlienPhlebotinum Lithecite]]. |
25 | * {{Magitek}}: The {{Precursors}} had this all over the place, including [[EnergyWeapon energy weapons]], golem-robots and [[CoolAirship flying ships]]. It's become LostTechnology in the modern age, though individual items can be restored with some time and effort. |
26 | * {{Precursors}}: The [[LizardFolk Nagarthim]], who once had a [[{{Magitek}} powerful and advanced]] civilization before they were brought to their knees by an unexplained cataclysm. [[spoiler: Mariska is the LastOfTheirKind, and fifteen-thousand years later she has managed to start resurrecting her fallen race as the Automata.]] |
27 | * OurDragonsAreDifferent : They generally follow the ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'' standard. |
28 | * ShiningCity : Talmain, TheEmpire's seat of power [[spoiler: until the red dragons leveled it]]. |
29 | * TwoGirlsAndAGuy : The main trio. [[spoiler: Until Dianatronoka and Mariska became enemies, anyway.]] |
30 | * VillainProtagonist : Mariska, Dianatronoka, and [[BlackAndGreyMorality several other major characters]]. |
31 | * YouAllMeetInAnInn : Many epidodes do start within a local inn, and Mariska and Dianatronoka even had their first encounter in such a place. |
32 | * WorldOfHam : Dastardly villains, overbearing heroes and melodramatic conflicts galore. |
