There are some factors to consider here: - Length and purpose of fic. If the fic is a short piece meant to flesh out the history of a place like the Necrohol, that would be more likely to count for points than an epic length fanfiction focused on OCs who lived there, with a storyline that revolves entirely around them. - Ties to canon. If there are many references to canon characters, events, explaining the why behind certain things in the game world, etc. that would be more likely to count for points than something that starts from scratch with a character people aren't likely to know about.
Sorry this isn't very helpful. :/ I can just see both of those types of fics going anywhere between "OCs that have a tie to canon / OCs placed in an existing world" to "an expansion of the canon itself".
