#Inktober Day 18 - Bottle / Twin


The many and varied orbiting spirit worlds exist on a multidimensional field where one of the many axes is comprised of temporal possibility, while another is comprised of causal probability. Between these axes are the realms that were, the realms that weren't the realms that will be, those that could be, and those that should never be allowed to come to pass.

Among those realms of the past are static worlds constantly cycling through a single day of historical importance, realms locked into step a decade or three behind the physical world, and realms of alternate presents where a single change in history might have led to a dramatically different global climate. Among those realms of the future there are infinitely more possibilities, all competing to be the "true future" which will eventually supplant the mortal realm when the time is right.

Any potential technology could exist in these realms; flying cars, cold fusion, faster than light starships, laser guns, cybernetics, immortality via chips in the brain stem, anything at all. But these realms exist in quantum flux. In order to become the "true future", many of these realms send clones, robots, Deloreans, soul transferred operatives, or other tools at their disposal into the mundane world. Here these travellers wage a shadow war against one another, each pushing obscure agendas designed to strengthen their own realms chances of becoming reality.

The more exotic a technology, the more noticeable it is in tne physical realm, and the more easily it will be noticed by conflicting reality potentials. For this reason, some of the best true future agents are clones sent into the mundane world after killing their originals (in times gone past, they might have been called doppelgangers)... perhaps even better than those are the operatives who change the will of the collective masses by afopting the roles of movie directors or producers.
