What if the world you were in was not the limit? What if existed another, separated by an invisible barrier keeping you apart? Living oblivious to the fact that, in this world, existed another you, that was different in some ways but the same in others. That each world was different and a new world could be spawned by even the slightest actions? 

That is the basic idea behind the All-Verse, the collection of infinite worlds. When reality was created, the dimensions followed. There is no telling how many universes there are, or what are in them, but they are vast and infinite in their potential. Some have magic, some don't, and some are strange and fantastical in their own special ways. It's [i]impossible[/i] to describe them all as they are all special in their own ways. However, one consistent trait in the All-Verse are that most of them have some type of life in them, human or not. This causes the [b]Counterpart[/b] Phenomenon.

Every individual in each universe shares a counterpart in another universe that is a different version of them. The changes can be completely small such as a different hair color to a completely different appearance and personality - however, they retain some similarity to their counterparts. They lived peacefully in bliss in complete ignorance to one another as they were never meant to know more than the universe they lived in. 

However, with the sudden resurgence of magic, it is possible to interact with alternate worlds as some abilities can open portals from one world to another. They are uncommon, but not impossible, and there are some abilities that interact with other dimensions in small ways (Pulling objects from a different dimension for example).[/cell][/row][/table][indent]However, it wasn't like this, as in the old timeline a being known as the Glutton went on a rampage through the All-Verse. It devoured countless worlds and almost brought reality to an end, leaving around eleven worlds. These remaining worlds were spared when the Glutton was defeated on [b]Glint[/b] and sealed inside of a world known as [b]Shimmer.[/b] When the old timeline was closed, the new timeline brought back these worlds and their stories. However, in between these worlds is a place known as the [b]Void[/b]. A limitless space of unreality where such concepts such as time, entropy, and atrophy do not exist and where incomprehensible beings exist. Reality is protected from the void by barriers that keep them out and a "safety" net that keeps beings from falling into the void. It [i]is[/i] possible for the right abilities to enter the Void... but with the horrors of the void out there? Why would you enter it?[/indent]

Arguably the most important universe given for one simple fact: it was where the Glutton was sealed. It was sealed eons ago, and it took all the magic possible in this realm to do so. Since then the universe moved on, relatively unaffected by magic and technology advanced as it should, with that one tiny spot in the world which had the tracest amount of magic. However, the Glutton was defeated in this universe and the timeline was restarted, and magic has recently returned. With the return of magic comes all the Apparitions and magic that was dormant awoken yet again, with new threats moving in from the other universes as well.[/cell][/row][/table]

This universe originated the same way as our world, but there was a secret society of magical families known as the League that waged a war against the Apparitions in shadow. However, everything changed when the Glutton attacked and wiped out more than half of the universe's population with his armies. 

The League united with what remained of their universe from Apparitions to even beings from other worlds to engage in a final stand. Their forces were slaughtered until a massive being of light (they named their "Light-Father") battled the Glutton and eventually sacrificed his own life to weaken it. Which allowed the League to imprison the being in Shimmer. Since then the League took over the governments and eventually rule the world with an iron fist with magical beings over the Blind and covered up the Glutton's existence.

Most inhabitants of Glint are members of a massive organization known as the League of Luminscience, a powerful collective of different families that rule the world of Glint. The League is a rustic organization as instead of advances in technology they did advances in magic. They all believe in the Lumunscienceas the source of their power and life and worship the Light-Bringer that saved them from the Glutton - which nearly destroyed their world ages ago. The Adepts and the League have had heavy involvement in the world of Shimmer.

The world of Glint is somewhat similar to our world; however, during the Glutton's rampage it destroyed a majority of Europe so many events that shaped our world did not occur. It also means the Caucasians are in the minority while other races such as the Arabic, Asians, Africans, and so on are in the majority. They have created their language which is a mish-mash of Arabic, African, and Mandarin, but few know how to speak English. 
[/cell][/row][/table][indent]Racism is rare if not nonexistent in the universe as what rules Glint is status. You see the League of Luminscience is a collection of families that wish to be on top of the league. Getting their children in the highest statuses and whatnot. In the past, the League was ruled by a Monarchy system that was heavy on slavery, but one man, known as King Magnanimous, eliminated the whole system and tried to create an "equal" system for the entire League. This was a massive council in which each family has a voice and the opportunity to make a change. However, one issue is that the most popular families have the loudest voices. This means the League has mostly devolved into petty squabbles and feuds instead of actual progress.

The League is fairly extreme in their methods and punishments. They are a very religious and strict nation, and the most heinous of crimes are punished by wiping out entire bloodlines. In their logic, the family is everything, and it is their fault that the crime was committing by simply not raising them right. This can include murder, rape, treason, and heresy. The League is very religious and worships the Luminscience and Lightbringer fervently enough to kill for it. However, even smaller crimes will be taken out on an entire family. The other thing about the League is that they treat anyone who doesn't have a connection to the Luminscience (AKA. The Blind) as a second-class citizen. Officially these people are not members of the League but under their "wing". They are used as functional slaves; cleaning and doing the jobs that the League doesn't want to do. They are constantly abused, raped and killed and an uprising is brewing.

The ruling government of the League is four houses that act as de facto governments: House of Candlelight (Which contains Africa and the Middle East), House of Torchlight (Which contains Asia), House of Firelight (Which contains North and South America), and House of Starlight (Which contains Europe and Russia). Each of these houses has a representative that oversees all matters and they are voted into their position, and their voice is the loudest in the council meetings. The primary military of the League is the Knights of Luminescence, a massive army of magic-wielding warriors. It consists of millions of warriors that fight to protect the League's way of life and roughly a volunteer army. Families from the bottom of the totem-pole are recruited into this huge army to gain status and money and that is the primary recruitment. Like some families, once they gain enough rank, they may have a louder voice in the meetings. Recruits start as Squires, and they can start as young as ten years old. At Squire, they are still in training and are mainly support for the actual fighting force. They are mentored by Knights and once they gain the experience they may eventually become a Knight.

If the League of Luminscience is the dominant force in Glint, who do they fight? Apparitions, beings that were deemed the sworn enemy of the League since it's conception. Ghostly beings that prey and grow stronger off belief. The Apparitions have been wreaking havoc in the League as even the slightest belief or emotion that grows out of control can create one. However, the true opponent of the League is the resistance movement known as the White Rabbit Society, which primarily consists of Apparitions but has members of the League that have rebelled and the Aberrations they oppress. They are lead by the mysterious entity is known as White Arachne, a being so fearsome and powerful to the League that nobody that has faced her has lived to tell the tale. The League changed history so that they blame White Arachne for the near extinction of humanity to keep information about the Glutton to a minimum. This caused White Arachne to be a Boogey woman of sorts and has, ironically, created more Apparitions.

The League was officially the first universe to achieve dimensional travel which they still have easy access to. However, after the Glutton's rampage and a few expeditions that went wrong, they largely stay out within Glint. The only universe they had any type of involvement in was Shimmer, as they imprisoned the Glutton inside of it and maintained the masquerade to keep it there. However, one of the League's most popular form of punishment is exiling people to other universes. After the Glutton's defeat things are beginning to change.[/indent]
