Synopsis
On a journey throughout the Wikiverse, Trail Blazer, a recent outcast from his home town, has stumbled upon the LMMCU, a land where anyone can create (almost) anything their imagination provides them with. There, our hero befriends its residents but is exiled after setting free a dastardly evil force. Trail sets out on a mission to unite the LMMCU and stop the evil that he unleashed with Lord Blox before he fulfills his goal to insert viruses throughout the Wikiverse causing all of it to become corrupt, while Trail learns to become a better person on his journey of self-reflection.
