[ FANDOM ][ GEN Z BRAINROT ]
The official, story-confirmed facts and events of a fictional work — the baseline reality that fan-invented material like headcanon and fanon exist in relation to, either supporting, filling gaps in, or contradicting it.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
"It's not canon yet, but the writers have hinted at it enough times that fans treat it as basically confirmed."
LORE & ORIGIN
Borrowed from the literary/religious sense of "canon" (an authoritative body of texts), adopted by organized fandom as early as Sherlock Holmes fan communities in the early 20th century and standard fandom vocabulary since.
