== Backstory ==
Odwofi was once an NPC, during much simpler times. The outside of the bar he lived in was little more than a shrouded mist of nothing with a road passing before it, but that didn't matter. He never left, he never needed to. He needed nothing, and therefore everything he needed was already there.

Occasionally a Player would show up, they always did. Many types, some more than once, but all the same in their goals; Either to sell something, or picking up the quest to save the world.... well, that was the last one in the line, there were other lesser quests, few heroes he met were ever ready to take on the end on the first visit.

There was a certain power in the air, a certain urgency, whenever a hero was ready, whenever one was about to show up for the final quest. With exception to a few occasions, events unfolded pretty much the same; The bell tolled in the distance, thunderstorms began appearing in the 'nothing', and powerful artefacts were shoved into his hands in exchange for the gold he always seemed to have just enough of.

Then, soon after they leave, everything was back to normal. Everyone was back like they never left when things got dark.

He knew all the spells they'd need to look out for, all the defenses of the castle, every monster and mercenary that would get sent at the Player, and exactly how to get there, without having to set foot outside his little tavern corner.

But they were late....

The bell had tolled...

The storms rolled in...

Cracks of black lightning had forced him from his corner, the world was rending itself apart in blurred squares and static lines, and most worryingly they hadn't come to sell anything at all.

They weren't coming... All the signs he knew had happened, and a few new ones he never saw before. Someone must be the hero, someone must save the day, someone must take the quest.

And that's when the quest giver, gave himself a quest.

Outcast:

The Cleft is rather confused as far as this goes, although likely not for any lack of divine presence. Rather, the confusion comes from the fact that the Gods either bicker wildly with each other or never do anything it all, making it hard to choose a figure of worship. Adding to the confusion is the fact that many newcomers import religions.

Nonetheless, there are many true Gods and Goddesses to be found, even if they do have a tendency to be unstable.

==Layers of the Cleft==
The Cleft of Dimensions is divided into several layers, in a metaphysical sort of way.
* The Upper Realm - Home to the immortals and other things
* The Middle Realm - The physical realm most people inhabit
* The Underworld - Home of the dead and [[Dreadite]]'s domain.

See the main article at [[Layers of the Cleft]].

==Immortals==
While they are called Immortals, these entities are for the most part entirely mortal, just super-powerful. During the creation of the Cleft, these beings were the first sentient creatures to fall into the Origin Wormholes. It is said the first being that entered the Cleft from the wormhole was imbued with immense power based on their existence in their home dimension.

Other entities listed here are directly related to the Immortals in some way.

===High Immortals===

The caretakers of the Cleft itself. These Immortals maintain the very fabric of reality, and who's influence and power can be felt across the world.

*[[Ageatii]], the Caretaker of Vitality

*[[Arctic]], Maestro of Weather

*[[Avenant]], the Infinite Muse.

*[[Benamas]], the Ancient Mariner.

*[[Carsanquay]], the Grand Architect.

*[[Dreadite]], the Carriage of Spirits.

*[[Jango]], the Lord of the Night.

*[[Pisces]], the Violent Pacifist

*[[Rune]], the Laboring Alchemist

*[[Saber]], the First God.

*[[Soohyun]], God of Judgment, helps maintain the balance of power between the immortals.

*[[Sylvere]], Fate Storyteller.

*[[Tenor]], God of Day.

*[[Ziddar]], the Mischievous Illusion

===Lesser Immortals===

These beings are no less important than other Immortals, but their influence is both highly focused in specific areas, and draws from the overarching powers of the High Immortals.

*[[Ademisk]], the Grand Game Master

*[[Lilly]], the Animal Shepherd

*[[Puffleton]], the Embodiment of Greed

*[[Sarai]], the Keeper of Hope

*[[Shamaster]], Scribe of the Universe

*[[Versalia]], the Lovely Lady Luck

*[[Ozlynn]], the Absent Mage

*[[Odwofi]], the Quest Giver

*Sunflash

===Other Beings===
These creatures are not quite on the level with the Immortals, but they can't be called mortal either. Their purpose and power varies, and they have no place in the work to keep the Cleft together.

*[[Arilothas]], the Clockwork Construct

*[[Cooper]], the Thief

===The Claire Bible===
The Claire Bible is one of very few magic objects whose source of power is not the Mana Goddess. Instead, it harnesses the divine power of the Immortals directly.

See the main article at [[Claire Bible]].

===Forgotten Immortals===
*Ami
*dataAndrew
*Hazama
*Hiru
*Jeeaghyn
*Raven
*Rew
*Shionjin
*Sirius
*Umbraunt

==Mana==
The [[Mana Goddess]] and subordinate [[Mana Spirits]] control the flow of Mana, and thus, almost all Magic in the Cleft of Dimensions.

'''Patron Immortal:''' Unknown

== Backstory ==

Ozlynn is very unskilled is almost every category. But once she saw a magic show; Very theatrical and filled with like very obviously gimmicky tricks and not real magic. She was overly impressed and tried to learn some of the tricks but just couldn't get it, even while following various magicians around through their lifetimes as a stage hand.

But then, she remembered she's been ''outliving'' these people and that she has these powers that she's not even used. So, she started using her powers to make up for her lame skills but only to mimick lame magic tricks. She performs impromptu "shows" only at places that aren't set up for hosting a magic show EG a bank, houses, hotel rooms, places of business or even secure facilities where she's not exactly a welcomed guest, you know, whenever and wherever the inspiration comes. She holds out her hat for donations at the end of every show, but she doesn't really care about that, she does it for the spectator's "Wow" factors EG "That was amazing! How'd you do that!", "Can you show me again?" or "Hey! You're not supposed to be in here! How'd you get in?!"

=='''On Watch'''==

===Truce Fountain Square===

'''July 20 of the year 323'''

'''Mana Holy Day'''

Variance looks up at the perched Seikou, perking a brow. "Interesting lookout spot you have there!"

Seikou looks down at Variance, grinning. "I like it up here. Good view, nice breeze..."

Variance lets a quiet laugh pass under his watch as he rests on one of the benches around the fountain. "I'm sure."

Seikou leans over a bit more, preparing to say something, and nearly falls off the roof "Ack!"

Seikou looks embarrassed and jumps off the rooftop, landing fairly neatly. "I guess that wasn't the best spot..."

Variance breaks a faint smirk, laying his spear across his lap leisurely. "And this is why we don't brood on rooftops."

Seikou looks slightly annoyed, brushing hair out of his eyes. "I wasn't brooding, I was on -duty-!"

"Not that there's a use for it." Variance's expression turns somewhat irritated at the thought. "I've been around for the past few hours with nothing out of place."

Seikou shrugs. "There has to be a maverick somewhere..."

You say 'True... Though after a month or two of restless searching, it's understandable if someone wants a little time to themselves, even if such quietness usually means scheming and plotting.'

Seikou says 'I really don't have much to do other than patrol... It's not like I know anyone around here besides you...'

Variance nods slightly, breathing a tired sigh. "At least we end up doing our job out of a lack of better things to do. Not to say that there are, mind you."

=='''Maverick At Last'''==

===Location Unknown===

'''January 1 of the year 325'''

'''Gnome's Day'''

[[Variance]] takes a bit of a stretch, no matter how futile an action it
was for him. Force of habit, perhaps?

You Hmmmm out loud.

You say ' Another reploid I have not seen before...'

Variance suddenly turns very still, eyes narrowing. There was...
someone here? He hadn't seen anyone arrive...

You say ' I guess there is no reason to hide.'

Nary a sound breaks the sudden veil of silence as Variance tightens
his grip on his weapon.

Variance says 'Show yourself!'

Vice turns off his cloaking unit and stands before Variance.

Variance takes a startled step back, slightly lowering his weapon.
Another reploid... and why did he seem so familiar? "What's your
business here?"

You say ' My business here?'

You laugh.

Vice reaches for the beam saber attached to his back.

Immediately, the dark wooden shaft raises defensively, Variance taking
another step back. He had a feeling another fight was in order, but
-why-?

Looking at the young man standing to the side, Vice smirks.

You say ' You there!'

You say ' Take one step and you will die.'

You say ' The choice is your's, reploid.'

Variance says 'What do you mean by that? You can't mean to...'

You say ' Wasting time is not a hobby of mine.'

Variance looks to the youth, openly disquieted by the sudden
situation. He couldn't possibly be meaning to kill the innocent
bystander, right? "I... Who -are- you?!"

With a swift motion, Vice grabs the beam saber from his back and
slashes the young man.

Variance shakes his head in disbelief, staring at the other reploid.
How...? How could he slay a human so quickly with so little remorse?
Could he be...?

You say ' You didn't stop me.'

You say ' Is that your answer?'

Vice slowly walks towards Variance.

Variance says 'Answer... Answer to -what-?!'

Variance steps back as fast as the other advances, confusion and shock
plain on his features. Is that... is that what a Maverick is?

You say ' I see fear in your eyes.'

Fear wasn't the only thing occupying his usually calm, clear amethyst
gaze. Variance was more confused now than he'd ever been, and that's
saying something. "Why... How could you -do- that?!"

You say ' Few reploids have the willpower to break the stupid laws...'

You say ' I seem to be one of them.'

The Law... Finally, something he knew about! Variance's look changes
quickly from one of bewilderment to stern morality. "But more have the
-sense- to abide by them. And of them, you're obviously not."

The jewel on Vice's helmet begins to glow...

You grin evilly.

Variance takes another step back, this one more to gain a stance than
to retreat. He was certain this was the cue for conflict, and he was
ready to call it.

You say ' I have come to realize, I can not accomplish the big goal alone.'

You say ' You seem like a strong reploid.'

You say ' Were you not built to fight in this ongoing war?'

Variance says 'From what little I was able to gather, yes.'

You say ' The war will continue forever...everything must be destroyed
for it to end.'

Variance says 'How do you know for certain? The war may have been
prolonged, but surely there must be an end other than annihilation.'

You say ' How naive...something a typical Hunter would say.'

Variance laughs softly, maybe somewhat cynically at the comment.
"Funny thing. I'm not even sure what a Hunter is and I already sound
like one."

Vice clenches his fists.

You say ' Enough talk.'

Focusing all of his energy to his legs, Vice dashes behind Variance.

Variance smirks and drops to one knee, spinning around to the right to
position himself perfectly to swing his glaive at Vice's legs when he
touches down.

Without the slighest flinch, Vice takes the hit.

You say ' I believe it's time for you to rest and think over your decision.'

Vice backhands Variance's face.

Variance reels back from the attack slightly, retaliating promptly and
lifting his glaive, switching his hold on it. He pushes back some,
shoving the end of his weapon towards Vice's chest in an effort to
gain some space.

You say ' Stop wasting your energy...it's no use.'

You say ' I will have no satisfaction killing someone like you.'

You say ' We will surely meet again.'

Vice turns on his cloaking device and dashes off.
