The beauty and the challenge of OtherSpace is that it takes place in a multiverse that allows for infinite parallel realities that evolve simultaneously and independently. It is only possible to experience paradoxical incidents, such as meeting your doppelganger, by traveling through extremely rare rifts that lead to these other realities. In some cases, such as the Palisade Pocket Universe, it is impossible to travel there from another part of the multiverse.
Your character can come from any of the universe variants found on this page or you may feel free to propose your own new variant, which could then be added here for other players to consider as their own "home" universe.

Palisade Pocket Universe (Open for New Character Applications)
In a Kamir-created pocket of reality hidden somewhere behind the Tomin star, this small solar system has one habitable world, Palisade, circled by six moons. It is home to the walled city-state of Fastheld. Here, it is the year 624 ATA (After the Aegis), six centuries after mages raised a huge wall around the realm to protect against threats in the wilderness beyond. Since then, magic has become feared and forbidden, punishable by crippling injuries and, in extreme cases, death. The realm is ruled by Emperor Talus Kahar XIV, who oversees six noble houses that are vying for political and economic dominance.
This universe is isolated from all rift modulator-equipped transuniversal starships.
