There are an innumerable amount of Dimensions, and several Dimensions have already been identified. However, without the aid of Portals, it would be an impossible task to discover any further Dimensions.
Portals are the gateways that enable their users to travel from one Dimension to another. Portals can come in many forms, such as a door that may directly lead to a specific point in a different Dimension or a book that will instantly teleport the reader to a different Dimension. It is currently unknown exactly how Portals work, as Portals are often a mixture of technology and magic that is incomprehensible to the typical dimensional traveler.
It must be acknowledged that any form of dimensional travel will generate an amount of Instability. The more abruptly a dimensional traveler crosses from their Dimension to another, the greater the amount of Instability.
Instability is the amount of disturbance in the natural order of the Multiverse and dimensional travel will increase the amount of Instability within individual Dimensions. Dimensional travel involves the transportation of one being from the Dimension they were residing in to another Dimension, and this process requires a large amount of energy, which is typically drawn from the two Dimensions. The energy lost in dimensional travel is then reclaimed by the Dimensions in a different, more ‘hostile’ form and generally causes havoc. Left unchecked, Instability can destroy entire Dimensions.
One of the many destructive effects of Instability is also its most defining feature: spontaneous dimensional travel. Unstable Dimensions will often generate Portals in unorthodox locations, and any being unlucky enough to stumble upon these Portals will be forcibly transported to a random Dimension. These Portals often close just as abruptly as they appear, leaving the victim in a foreign world that may possibly be their end. This effect only serves to further feed Instability, as it is merely another form of dimensional travel.
Theoretically speaking, any being has the capacity to travel from Dimension to Dimension, but most will probably be limited by an exceptionally strong link to their home world.
Wanderers are beings who can freely travel across the Dimensions, unanchored to their home world or to any world. Most Wanderers do not realize that they have this ability until they try traveling through Dimensions, and they typically do so out of necessity. This comes with a slight drawback, though: they must conform to the Standard of the Dimension that they travel to.
The Standard of any Dimension refers to the form or shape that a majority of the inhabitants of that Dimension have assumed. The Standard can vary heavily between Dimensions, from the humanoid/bipedal form of most worlds to forms incomprehensible to many.
The typical dimensional traveler, who may only encounter one or two other Dimensions in their lifetime, will not have their form changed to the Standard. This may cause other problems for them, ranging from derision from the world’s inhabitants to death if the traveler cannot adapt to the challenges posed in the Dimension.
A Wanderer, by comparison, will have traveled through many Dimensions, and will be forced to change to the Standards of the Dimensions that they encounter. However, the change in form usually does not interfere with the abilities of the Wanderer, and they will typically be just as able in their new form as they would have been on their home world. Furthermore, even though their form may change, their overall appearance may not be drastically changed. The Wanderer can be easily recognized by anyone who has seen them before in a different Dimension.
salinedepths asked: god damn it pass the fucking whiskey
<Synthia> Please direct any further inquiries about whiskey to the Fusion Five. The King is currently having a breakdown over those mysterious Mets, and I am not certain as to what the changeling is trying to accomplish today. As for me, I have my own business to attend to.
salinedepths asked: Looks like TG MET his end!
<TG74> AHAHAHAHAHAHAH– Shut up.
<TG74> “Magical dicksucker” time is over. We’re back in our bodies now, and it was… an interesting experience. I’m gonna have nightmares about all those mets…
<TGOT> At least you didn’t have to sit your ass on a boring throne 24/7!
borderline-maverick-deactivated asked: doesn't dictator birdbot have a cigar instead of a penis
<TGOT [TG74]> Who knows? I would go and check, but I kinda can’t right now, you know, being the laziest king in all the lands–
<TG74> [TGOT]> Excuse me? I’ll have you know that I graduated at the top of my class in–
<Synthia> Please, calm yourselves. For my sake and for yours.
Anonymous asked: magical dicksucker TGOT and TG switch bodies for a day and nobody is willing to acknowledge it
<TGOT [TG74]> My good friend, we’ve already swapped bodies! I honestly don’t know how or when it started, but it happened. It’s due to end any second now, though… give or take a few hours. And let me tell you, sitting on the throne is probably one of the most boring things I’ve ever done in my life in this world.
<TG74 [TGOT]> HOW DO YOU DEAL WITH ALL THESE METS
Anonymous asked: what would you do if dictator birdbot showed up to your door naked with flowers
<Synthia> I’d send him over to Annette. It would make for quite an interesting evening.
