The bearded man sat by the large crackling fire, drinking from a glass of unspecified alcohol, despite the fancy room, he was wearing dirty sweatpants and a hoodie.

"Hello, my name is MrBadWithNames, the self-insert designed to explain and keep you caught up with the plot!"

He took a sip of the drink and took a second to keep it down.

"Now, you may be thinking something along the lines of..."

He cleared his throat before putting on a silly voice.

"If YoU wErE a GoOd WrItEr yOu WoUlDn'T nEeD a ChApTeR lIkE tHiS"

"And, you may be right... but I am not a great writer." he poured himself another glass of unspecified alcohol and took a sip.

"But, as for you weeaboos - I know you're out there - consider this a filler-chapter! Though... it's not really a filler..."

He drank the glass in one go and poured another.

"Right, let's get started!"

The man stood up, grabbing the bottle of alcohol with him as he did so, then he headed towards a nearby bookshelf and retrieved a book which he flipped to an image.

"Let's cover the factions, I bet you people forgot half of them."

"We have the JGuardians... well, had, until I decided to annihilate them on a whim for a Christmas-special..."

"Well, actually, it wasn't on a whim, it was just a bit earlier than intended!"

He flipped to another page in the book.

"We also have the butt-pirates! I have plans for them I swear!"

He poured some more alcohol into the glass and drank it, letting out a satisfied gasp as he did.

"Right... where were we?...right the factions!"

He sat down on the floor, no longer feeling like standing around.

"Let's see... we have the Log Frog Tentacle Online guild!"

"Yeah, foxly, bony and bromy... bromy is my favourite..."

"We have JohnWillStab's guild, ehh... I forgot the name." he waved his hand dismissively, knowing that you probably know the name anyway as he poured himself another drink.

"Yeah, RuRet, I like him... he's edgy... ehh, speaking of RuRet, Olivionion is also great!... I may be a sadist..."

He flipped to another page.

"Ah, silverpeak, the big-bad guys of volume 2... I like how they are easy to draw... and how they have this kind of cult-feel about them."

"I can't say much about them, my goal here isn't to spoil the story after all!" he laughed as he drank another glass of alcohol.

"Ahhh, shit the booze is really hitting he hard, hehe." he stumbled back to his feet and dragged the bottle of booze and the book back to his seat near the fire.

"Let's see... the Ajuan people... there's two of them, the 'Ajuan half army' and 'Ajuan empire' they're not really developed right now... though I promise fun stuff in Ajuan!"

"Arlepia faction... they used to be important when the JGuardians were around... but... now John's the big problem y'know..."

"Kearudown... if not for JohnWillStab, I'd call them the dictator-faction of the game, they took the entire fucking continent except for some little bits of unclaimable land."

He drank another glass seeing that the bottle was almost empty.

"There is always the trade rash guild... greedy sons of..."

"Well... I think this should conclude out little revision-chapter for the story, let me know what you think about this whole... thing..."

"I dunno, you can leave a question in the comments or something."

"...I'm... about to pass out... so see you guys next t-" the man plummeted into the ground before he could complete the sentence.
