Broternal Order Of Different Helmets/Guide

The Complete Guide to the Broternal Order of Different Helmets

What is the Broternal Order?
In 2016, the user formed the Broternal Order of Different Helmets (abbreviated to the BODH, sometimes called the Order), based on the group of the same name from the toon Ever and More!. Back then, we held meetings on the forum, discussed current events, and participated in activities. Each member had their own character persona, and one day we started writing short "episodes" about our characters. Over time, the episodes became longer and more ambitious, and eventually, they became our priority. The BODH "franchise" grew to encompass not only scripts, but animations, video games, board games, comics, and so forth. Now this franchise has become our main focus. "The Broternal Order of Different Helmets", depending on the context, could be referring to the fictional group, the real-life group, or even the franchise itself.

Everyone is encouraged to join. By joining, you can help us write episodes at our forum. To write episodes, one person makes a forum post consisting of a few lines of the script, then the next person posts some more lines, and this continues until the episode is finished. There are no restrictions as to how much you can write, or what you can do. Most of the episodes are improvised, although a few have a rough plot outline written beforehand. We usually write multiple episodes at a time.

After each episode is finished, the scripts are copied onto this wiki. (You can find them on the page.) The wiki scripts are the definitive versions of each episode, meaning if there's a difference between the forum version and the wiki version, the wiki version is correct. The forum merely serves as an easy way to write collaboratively. The episodes are often edited on the wiki for purposes such as fixing grammar and formatting, correcting continuity errors, or even just making a line funnier. All members of the Order can make these edits &mdash; however, they might be reverted if they aren't seen as an improvement. Also keep in mind, not all episodes may be formatted fully on the wiki. Usually we just copy and paste it straight from the forum (making it look ugly and unfinished), then format it like a regular transcript later on.

What's happened so far?
We've made a lot of episodes. You can't just jump right in with the latest script, because so much has happened. And you can't just start with the first script and read through all of them, since that'll take forever. So here is a quick rundown of the series, starting with characters and objects, then moving on to significant events.

Here are brief descriptions of each major character, and other important things. See also the page or the wiki.

Here is a list of the most important events in each episode. If an episode is missing, that means nothing particularly noteworthy happened.
