Editing Rule of Q

The '''Rule of Q''' is a common IRL Quelmar shorthand tool that originated in the [[Metagame (Campaign)|Metagame]] campaign in 2021. The idea is simple, in situations where more robust or inventive worldbuilding is unavailable due to:

* Lack of time (or because it was improvised)
* Lack of effort or energy (shoutout to [https://slyflourish.com/lazy_gm_resource_document.html Lazy GMs] everywhere!) 
* It would be funnier to ''not'' worldbuild (Do it for the bit!) 

Until substantially canonized, instances of the Rule of Q are presumed to be examples of [[Implied Transcreation]]: where a shorthand is used because it quickly conveys an idea to players and viewers alike, allowing everyone to roleplay and work together on the same wavelength without having to learn a deeper bit of lore or worldbuilding.
