4th Walling is for fandom characters. For example if your character is Nightcrawler from Xmen and someone else reasonably could have read the comic books, are they allowed to go "OH YOU ARE NIGHTCRAWLER" and proceed to know details of your life/canon.
A more practical example is if you're playing a character from Fables, say Snow White. In her canon people know her fable so she knows who she is and people know details of her story even if they aren't all correct.

1) Is this another one where we just jump in as if we were anywhere else first or does this one have a more specific premise?
2) Does 4th-walling mean "character speaks knowing they're a character" or something else?

2) Pretty much. Is the character aware they are a character is how I've heard it defined.
I am not allowed to fourth it due to my creepy obsession with meta.
