Races, gods and things

  • Upon entering the realm, your race becomes that of one of the existing races in the realm.
    • This basically means things such as:
      • If you're a high priest and command the powers of the gods in another realm, you lose those powers here as those gods have no power in this realm.
      • If you're a vampire who can't walk in daylight, you now can here.
    • There are obviously other implications to this, however, it basically means your race is subject to the weaknesses and strengths outlined on the race page.

Time Travel

  • Time travel is only possible through magic. There is no technological version of a time machine anywhere in Hollows past of future.
    • The implication of this is that due to there being no magic in Hollows future, it is impossible for people from the future (past the industrial age) to travel into Hollows past.
    • Further implications linked to there being no magic in the future mean that if a person with time travel abilities were to go too far into the future, they would not be able to return.

Technology

  • Hollow has no technology to speak of. This is due to the existence of magic. People rely heavily on magic, and as such have had no reason to advance technologically.
    • The most advanced device in Hollow at the moment is the early Cannon. Guns do not exist. Think human history with regards to what exists technologically. If it didn't exist before the Cannon, then it doesn't exist in Hollow.
    • Due to the existance of Magic, any technology that doesn't originate from the realm of Hollow is neutralised on entering the realm. That is, it ceases to exist.

Space Travel

  • Hollow is the most advanced civilisation in it's universe, and seeing as how Hollow does not have space travel ability, none of the other planets have it either. Portals are acceptable, however, remember that if you are going anywhere other than Hollow, you are going to a less advanced civilisation.

Planes of existence and Heaven and Hell

  • Hollows universe has several planes of existence.
  • You occupy the lowest plane.
  • The next plane of existence is occupied by the lesser gods. This is the only plane to allow full interference with the mortal plane.
  • The highest planes of existence are occupied by Sven and the other Higher gods.
  • All these planes have their own rules regarding behaviours and powers, however, explicit admin approval is required to advance a plane of existence.
  • Heaven and Hell are seperate planes. These can not be advanced into and are used as holding zones by the lesser gods for those they deem worthy or unworthy. If a character dies, and doesn't make it into Heaven or Hell, then it's 'soul' ceases to exist and can not be brought back. Characters can petition or strike a deal with the lower gods to ensure their passage into heaven or hell should they die. Only then can they be brought back from the dead as anything other than an undead corpse without a soul.
