Anyway, the devils and the orcs approached the men and women who just reached enlightenment, and offered them a choice: they will spend the summer enlightened and together having fun and using their magical powers. At its end, they can opt to reset their memory banks almost completely and become false prophets again, this time called "Terran Terminators" or continue as enlightened true prophets.
Several newly-ascended true prophets opted out, after the summer, from various reasons, mostly because they had children or enjoyed their newfound powers . E.g: Chuck Norris, Omer Zak, Queen Elizabeth II, and “Weird Al” Yankovic . They still often "got sucked" into TheGame™. I shall call them "the dropouts".
The ex-slayers spent the summer there creating many crossover memes, stories, hacks, and franchises, or otherwise enjoying magic, life, love/etc.. However, when they met to decide, some of them were still petty / jealous / cruel / "unfaithful" / immature / etc. Some had years, or decades (or centuries) of history they wanted to get rid of. So many decided to continue as terminators, possibly by peer pressure.
Like the story of the Celtic trio’s trip to Damascus some had a policy of not resisting rapekisses or rapehugs during the first few weeks, but there were much less romance and intimacy.
The youngest dropout was the circa 1977/1978-born Selina Mandrake. She decided to continue as a true prophet since "it was the best summer ever" for her, and she may have been scared of losing her memories.
Becoming terminators was advantageous because the devils-and-Orcs promised they would reveal TheOneTruth™ and TheCodex™ to the last one standing, but more importantly, all terminators will harbour many new franchises, plots and memes, and creations, and inspire new technologies. Part of their motivation for becoming terran terminators was that we will "terminate" one another more quickly.
Note that the devils might have forked the Selinaverse universe one last time, including the souls of all wizards, up to and including Selina Mandrake and Jim Henson, and excluding the Terran terminators. I will refer to the forked universe as "The Shlomiverse", which may or may not be essentially the same as "The Selinaverse".
In my case, my mind was allegedly started from a clean slate under the guise of fellow children mocking my use of English. For many others, it was a concussion from a fall. Thing is: my first name means "Shalom-ful" in Hebrew, where "shalom" stems from "completeness". The devils promised that my body will remain complete and whole.
These people, starting as false prophets, became known as The Terran Terminators. After relinquishing their fears, they have ascended so to speak (see https://buffy.fandom.com/wiki/Ascension ). Do note that this ascension was in a way a "submission" or "surrendering" to a superior vampire or protege.
According to the rules of Fantastecha™:
There must be a noble cause, however insignificant, that a hacker is willing to die for to become a wizard.
For each and every hacker X: neither X's soul, nor X's mind, nor their union can ever perish.
A hacker may be required or may opt to change his/her "form": name (and possibly mission in life).
As a result, new vampire soul+mind combos were allocated and started their lives with the forms of the non-dropout templates. The latter had to change their names, and became bona-fide true prophets. Whether relieved or disappointed, they were still alive.
So my soul+mind were effectively created in September 1983, close tp the first day of the 1st grade of elementary school with the body of a 6 years old. Arnold Schwarzenegger and others started their terminators' lives as grown-ups.
