DYOS 6: Quest for the Mods' Fridge

The F.A.S.E Door
The F.A.S.E Door by @Thorvald (El Thorvaldo)

My 22nd submission to DYOS VI.

Mods have the strangest artifacts. And no, I never thought to elaborate the acronym. It's actually a reference to the ancient Windows 3.x RPG Castle of the Winds: one of the spells the player can learn is "Phase Door", which instantly shifts one's position locally (although cannot be directed). "Wrinkle Theory" is in homage to the Madeleine L'Engle novel A Wrinkle in Time.

The whole business about memory failure is a direct reference to the ReBoot episode "When Games Collide", in which Megabyte leeches energy from games to break into the System Archives.

GeoCities was shut down in 2009, but HitlerCities is still going strong.
