Universe-1689

This neutrally-aligned universe residing in the Balis cluster is the main setting of the comic. As the number may suggests it is not the only one, much like DC/Marvel and Sliders have a vast multiverse to contend with. In fact, every fictional universe imaginable is a possible destination for macrocosmic travelers (at least a facsimile there of so I don’t get sued lol). Now being neutrally-aligned means the characters are capable of morally gray decisions much like our reality. While positively-aligned ones can have heroes being okay with playing a game of baseball with the villains or the converse, negatively-aligned ones where the good guys are actually the villains like evil Spock and my favorite, Heroic Decepticons vs. Evil Autobots. As far as the Balis cluster goes, the multitude of universes within it shares several common cosmic phenomena. The Sieve of Maga pours a vast supply of mana, the power source of magic, from the Magic Plane into all open dimensions within its universe. The Planar Keys unlock the ability to travel to each dimension, which in the process allows magic to function within that plane of existence. The Cosmic Surge pulses an exotic and evolution-inducing energy from the center of the universe outward. And finally, all universes within the Balis cluster are observed with a keen eye by the omniversal race known as the Deithans, especially since they use Universe-1689 as one of their penal facilities.
