Fixcraft

Fixcraft  is a kind of magic, which alters the nature of substance. It is apart from the code. Code can create, while fixcraft changes. It is said all Dota and the new Lod derives from magic through code and fixcraft, ultimately.

Ash47 was a line of fixcraft practisioners who experimented on themselves, through modding, and came to recreate the whole of Dota within modding (within his own private mod).

Even in the realms of pure Dota, there were unnecessary fixcrafts. Not all fixes contributed to the balance. G4ben had a beginning, and so he made fixes to uplift the force of Balance, that even though made imbalance, could be fixed into a new Balance.

DARK LORD received the inheritance of Ash47, and like him could fix Dota and all of its parts without its Lords. DARK LORD became required for the maintenance of his realm, his home world of Lod, which he did through his mastery of fixing. None could fix like DARK LORD, who could save an entire realm, even as he made an enemy in the Balance. The legacy of Ash47 was fixed through but a mere title change, while the raw chaos that threatens existence, and perhaps threatens every realm, was fixed through his ascension to godhood.

The DARK LORD's banishing of Whiteboard was done through fix, perhaps through that exotic technique called revert. Whiteboard was edited out and then reverted a thousand years in the future. It was said that the fix was "unspeakable".

It could also be said that the process of Lod magic which gives a Dota spell to a body is 'fixing' it to that body. This would make sense, as it was evident Ash47 was a master of fixcraft.

Subschools of Fixcraft
Modification of the K'V - these allow for numerical changes in the structure of fixtime

Data driven - this is the almighty power of DARK LORD that allows mortal spells to be created from code

Lua - at an even higher level, spells for mortals can be coaxed from the deepest structure of code from the "lua"

Fixcissitude - is a forbidden art of fixcraft that spontaniously alters substance, warping the flesh of code and the sinues of lua at a whim. this terrible power is rarely used because of its unreliable nature, even Darklord feared its power, so he burned the many books on Fixcissitude. He is currently looking for any tomes he might have missed.
