User:DiCinnoa/Tier 0 Guide

This is just the thoughts and ideals of SSgt. Goose regarding the creation and use of Tier 0 races/factions.'''

Your Race or Faction
Having a Tier 0 race or faction is like taking Halo by the ring and dashing around like Sonic. You need to be careful when writing. More so than usual as Tier 0 is a very touchy subject. Users don't want to find a Race or Faction that can beat everything without much effort. I myself have two Tier 0 factions; the Vitika and the more recent addition the Ensying which still has much to be asked for. So far they have been accepted by the community only because of how I was able to intertwine them with the Halo Universe and how I can place them in fiction without attacks. I just treat them as if they were a lower Tier race(s) but with some technological advances. The best way to help them work with other fanon is thier ability to take as much hits as every other race. Just like the others they can Fall from Grace.

Know Your History
Your race or faction did not achieve Tier 0 by kissing humming birds or frolicking through flowers. They need to have a strong history as to how they climb the tiers and reached the final, and it should have but is not required, a large scale events in which the people of that race or faction is ultimately deceased. This is explained in finer detail in the next section of this guide. If you don't include a well written (documented) history, it can be an ongoing work where several articles are linked, you are subjecting the readers to the belief that your article is Überwin otherwise known as Godmodded. With no history of any kind it makes your race or faction seem to have always been Tier 0 and are the ultimate force in the universe.

Eventful vs _____
The key to making and maintaining your Tier 0 race or faction less Überwin and more acceptable is the inclusion of Events. These events; large or small, few or numerous, are to create an understanding about the race or faction so it can be comparable to the other factions of the universe. In most of these events, the race or faction should be plagued by death. Not necessarily a plague, but they must have a death ratio, list or even a mere mention. This supports the second most important aspect of the Tier 0: Mortality. For those who are unfamiliar with the meaning of the word it means killable. They are not invincible/invulnerable and should be subject to the same causes of death every other race has. Events help to define the mortality of the race by sharing what they have been through and their survivability. Remember that even though they can survive many things, they are still organic (except for those who have machines that are Tier 0 for which there is no cure for insanity).
