#nomadverse

The Nomadverse as a concept is basically that there is a pantheon of gods made in the image of various incarnations of the TMNT who oversee different things in the multiverse. It also follows the people they effect with their actions.

Given how huge the TMNT franchise is, only a few sets of gods will get strong focus and some may get redundant titles. I'll just be focusing on introducing some of the sets that I've developed more, the others may be brought up later if I continue posting about this idea.

Certain aspects might be changed as things become more developed.

2012

Atlas, god of multiversal stability (Leo)

Appearance: The silhouette of a 2012 Leo strung up by cyan strings all over his body. His eyes are each a cyan, diamond-shaped eyes and the times when his mouth is visible it is made up of cyan diamond shapes. He also has 3 pairs of arms.

Personality: Cold, emotionally distant to everyone, and most people find him needlessly cruel.

Scope of Domain: Is basically a top god due to his domain giving him influence and knowledge on just about everything. He is also fully meta-aware.

Room: A endless void full of nothing but the countless cyan strings binding him within.

Common power manifestation: Him using his powers is usually accompanied by him tugging on the strings binding him.

Motivation: Story-given motivation is that he's lashing out at creators in spite, but he's actually aware he's just the designated villain in this AU and goes through the motions.

Quirk: He has no sense of smell, taste, or touch, and he will process things in the medium they were originally made in (so while the other gods and characters will look at a text-based universe and see images, he will only be reading the text).

Minos, god of animals (Raph)

Appearance: Can shapeshift into any animal species he wants, but he usually defaults to his base form with deer antlers and ears, yellow eyes that function like a cat's (shifts from round to thin), sharp canines, pigeon wings, tiger tail, and his appendages are sharp. He also tends to wears a rich red cloak that covers up the majority of his torso and limbs.

Personality: Slightly more melancholic than the average Raph when he's not facing high-stakes situations. He tries to be kind to anyone who has been victimized and will provide them a space where they can recover. He saves the typical rage a Raph has for when he's facing against evil people, who he will be willing to tear apart in defense of the innocent.

Scope of Domain: Technically has influence over all living things that aren't plants, both in being able to change their physical form or minds, but he doesn't like altering minds.

Room: Has all the different ecosystems for all species to live in so it is basically endless, but the spot he and his servant gods call home is a farmhouse located near a meadow and forest. It is full of various animals he's saved, or villains that he turned into helpless animals, he also uses it as a place for traumatized individuals to get some animal therapy or to temporarily hold populations until their worlds are safe to return to.

Motivation: To try and help people and animals escape bad situations.

Deucalion, servant god of uplifted beings (Slash)

Appearance: Looks like a typical 2012 Slash but he now wears a black toga with only one strap going over a shoulder and some cloud-like patterns.

Personality: Is fairly close to how the typical 2012 Slash is post-redemption. Normally tries to be kind but does not take it well whenever he sees somebody try and destroy the sapience of someone else, which includes people who try to force retromutagen on mutants that started as ordinary animals, he also has a bone to pick with any other version of Slash that chooses to remain evil.

Scope of Domain: Oversees basically any species that would be considered 'uplifted' from their previous forms, mutants are the most common case.

Common power manifestation: Usually accompanied by a show of white light.

Motivation: To help Minos and any innocents that he encounters that are in need of protection.

Argus, servant goddess of domestic animals (Ice Cream Kitty)

Appearance: Now has fully formed back legs again, peacock wings, and wears a red collar with a gold circle tag.

Personality: Could be summarized as a mischievous trickster, while most versions of the turtles and their allies don't have to worry about her turning on them because she views them affectionately, basically anyone else is fair game for her doing drastically dangerous 'pranks' if they do something to get on her bad side. Sometimes you don't even have to directly interact with her to achieve being on her bad side, hurting someone she cares about is enough for her to turn on you.

Scope of Domain: Oversees any species that is considered domesticated, like pets or farm animals. She can also forcefully 'domesticate' wild things or those with a human level of intelligence.

Common power manifestation: If she uses her 'domesticating' powers on someone, then they get a collar on their neck.

Motivation: Mostly just trying to have fun, but also feels a actual sense of anger when facing certain villains that would've otherwise gotten away with it.

Orthros, servant god of the wild (Chompy)

Appearance: Is basically his Mutant Apocalypse form.

Has basically the same personality as canon Chompy, though being the target of his rage is now much more obviously terrifying due to him being physically full-grown.

Scope of Domain: Oversees any species or individual of a species that is considered a wild and untamed animal, as well as any people who have returned to a feral state.

Common power manifestation: Magic is usually represented through flames.

Motivation: Mostly just following Minos, Deucalion, and Argus.

Eros, mad god of love (Donnie)

Appearance: Body is almost fully purple with sketchy black outlines. His eyes are fully hot pink with heart shaped irises with no pupils, circular hot pink blush marks, inside of mouth is fully black aside from a pink heart that represents his tongue, he also has a hot pink heart on his chest. He also has a pair of wings.

Personality: Eccentric. His morality is based on who has the stronger love in a group of people, meaning he will sometimes encourage the victory of toxic relationships due to one person being obsessed with the other person. He doesn't mean to do harm, but his insanity prevents him from recognizing the times when he does do harm. He rarely gets angry, basically the only time he will get angry is if someone takes the word love in vain (like when a relationship completely lacks love but at least one person in it will claim it is love anyway).

Scope of Domain: Doesn't just oversee romantic love, he rules over every form of love there can be.

Room: A chaotic city full of a wild mish-mash of symbols associated with love.

Common power manifestation: Will often pull out a bow and arrow when he's about to use his powers directly on someone, if he simply enchants a object then it is usually accompanied by pink colored magic and heart symbols.

Motivation: Believes love should always win in the end.

Quirk: He can actually see the love people have in their hearts in the form of flowers growing on their body. These flowers vary in color and species based on who or what the love is connected to.

Hypnos, god of dreams (Mikey)

Appearance: Has wings that look like a rainbow version of a monarch butterfly's as well as a pair of butterfly antennae. His freckles are now a glowing golden color and he has a small cartoonish golden crown floating around his head.

Personality: More melancholic than the average 2012 Mikey. He has a low self-esteem despite actually being very intelligent. He's also very kind and wants to make others who are struggling feel supported through their troubles instead of being ignored.

Scope of Domain: Oversees dreams as in what you see when you go to sleep, daydreams, or your ambitions and desires. He also technically rules over the subconscious as a whole.

Room: Normally is a pastel cloud heaven in a style akin to a show for little kids, as well as rainbows and other random little objects being scattered around the place. It will change according to Hypnos' emotional state.

Common power manifestation: Magic manifests as clouds of golden sand.

Motivation: Wants to give people a listening ear for their problems and a place where they can go to escape from the issues of the waking words.

Rise

Pluto, god of death (Raph)

Appearance: Looks like a normal Rise iteration of Raph but with a black hooded cape that looks slightly raggedy and the ends move as if alive. He wears the movie version of his gear except the badge on his belt is replaced with a skull shaped one.

Personality: Basically the same as any Rise Raph, though with slightly more anxiety.

Scope of Domain: He not only oversees typical death, he also oversees death of personality situations and cases where a world gets deleted. His room is literally full of doors leading to the afterlives of those whose worlds got deleted.

Room: Is a hall with endless layers of doors representing worlds that got deleted.

Common power manifestation: Magic manifests as a smokey black.

Motivation: To help give comfort to those undeserving of death but are still being given it anyway by the narrative, as well as try and help those whose worlds got deleted.

Quirk: Can literally see when people will die in the form of the date on a rectangle above their heads.

Sol, god of art (Mikey)

Appearance: Generally looks like he's splattered with paint on more parts of his body, has a sunny glow to him along with a sun-themed halo around his head, and his clothes are a fancier looking version of a painter's smock with gold lining.

Personality: More-or-less the same as a typical Rise Mikey, but the artistic side of him is his most dominating interest.

Scope of domain: All forms of art, whether it be from physically making something, a type of performance, decorating, etc.

Room: A art gallery with endless space for his works or works he liked from worlds he visited.

Common power manifestation: Usually manifests his magic through art mediums like paint.

Motivation: To encourage artists and see all the wonders the multiverse has to offer.

Quirk: Instead of blood, he bleeds paint and will start to slightly melt if exposed to too much water.

Jointly known as the Twins:

Shared Room: A circus tent with a theater stage at the center.

Thales, mad god of comedy (Leo)

Appearance: Outfit is a navy blue and gold highlights circus ringleader outfit with the right side of his face being covered by half of a comedy mask that looks like it is made from the same material as mirrors. The uncovered half of his face is done up with clown makeup. His left wrist has a bright red ribbon tied around it that binds him to Melpomene.

Personality: Is a little similar to Eros due to their shared 'mad god' status. He does understand typical morality though, he just chooses to ignore it in preference to pursuing what he wants to do anyway. He unwittingly causes harm a lot (particularly emotional harm), though he normally doesn't see it as a big deal and doesn't understand why people are so upset with what he does. Loves chaos as comedy and figures that anything is comedic if it is seen by the right person.

Scope of Domain: All forms of comedy, including ones that have fallen out of favor.

Common power manifestation: The only consistent thing is that it is flashy.

Motivation: Wanting to make people happy and to personally have fun, his methods are a bit destructive of misguided.

Melpomene, god of tragedy (Donnie)

Appearance: Heavily themed after a mime with the left side of his face being covered by half of a tragedy mask that looks like it is made from the same material as mirrors. His right wrist has a bright red ribbon tied around it that binds him to Thales.

Personality: Depressive, but the thing that will make him angriest is people who he sees as ungrateful for what they have or those who do awful things knowingly and get away with it (the sole exception to this is Thales and even then he does still get angry if Thales does something he can't justify even slightly).

Scope of Domain: All causes of tragedy and despair.

Motivation: To make the ungrateful or monstrous people of the multiverse suffer.

IDW

General: Designs I imagine them with are the Sophie Campbell art style.

Kannon, god of redemption (Leo)

Appearance: Has a white and light blue version of a Buddhist monk robe and his mask has become a very light blue color, has white wrappings on his wrists and legs. He also has a red circle on his forehead and a red dragon tattoo on one arm.

Personality: Patience of a saint, tries to be understanding of everyone and doesn't believe anyone is truly beyond redemption, some people just dug themselves into deep holes that will be a difficult process to dig them out of it.

Scope of Domain: Redemption, even for the absolute worst individuals, he will not give up but also will try to minimize harm.

Room: A serene temple with gardens.

Common power manifestation: Magic is usually a glowing white color.

Motivation: Wants to help villains redeem themselves because he believes that everyone, including the villains themselves, will be happier that way.

Onryō, god of vengeance (Raph)

Appearance: Main body has turned snow white with a sketchy black outline that gets more sketchy the more upset he is. Eyes are almost fully red except for black pupils and a outline to show his iris, inside of mouth is red as well. Mask is still red and is ragged on the ends, he also has dark red armor.

Personality: Is always at least a little angry, his best moods come from him being happy when someone evil has been made to suffer horribly. He genuinely believes in justice, but is blind to when he takes it too far and causes too much damage. Doesn't believe in forgiveness after someone has deeply hurt you physically or mentally.

Scope of Domain: Vengeance in all forms, which allows him to have influence over basically anything as long as he does it with the desire to fulfill vengeance. Also could be considered a god of anger, war, and justice.

Room: A war room full of various weapons.

Common power manifestation: Magic either manifests in the form of a red liquid resembling to blood or flames.

Motivation: Wants to help others get vengeance on those who wronged them, but his methods are very destructive.

Ishikori-dome no Mikoto, god of metalworking (Donnie)

Appearance: Defaults to giant size with a black mourning shroud covering most of his body.

Personality: One of the more reclusive gods, he's rarely seen outside of his room in the Pantheon and typically tries to avoid interacting with the multiverse unless certain cases catch his eye.

Scope of Domain: All forms of metalworking fall under his domain, including making technology, jewelry, weapons, etc.

Room: Is a massive forge full of his creations and a hole that is constantly producing metal ore.

Motivation: Just wants to be left alone most of the time.

Quirk: If you hit him, he'd be unaffected while your hand would be broken.

Tajimamori, god of celebrations (Mikey)

Appearance: Just has a outfit resembling Toad Baron's.

Personality: Puts on a mask of happiness for mortals or other gods that he's trying to cheer up, but inside he's actually a more melancholic Mikey.

Scope of Domain: All holidays, birthdays, and any other kind of celebrations. Can also influence people into being in more of a partying mood, but doesn't like using that ability.

Room: A massive banquet hall with various attached rooms full of activities for people to enjoy.

Motivation: To make people happy.

Ame-no-Uzume, servant goddess of distractions (Alopex)

Appearance: Has a orange and yellow outfit resembling a magician's assistant, though she will often change her outfit to various other ones.

Personality: Similar to Tajimamori in that she will wear a more upbeat mask to cover up her actual feelings of being frustrated and upset most of the time. Reverts to the behaviors of a assassin and using her powers to that end if someone has made her angry enough.

Scope of Domain: Can influence basically anything so long as she has the intention of causing a distraction. Can also magically compel people into turning their attention to something else.

Common power manifestation: Is always flashy.

Motivation: Usually intervenes to try and help people escape bad situations or she wants to punish a evil person.

Onna-Musha, servant goddess of fights (Angel)

Motivation: To protect the innocent or give underdogs a extra edge in a fight.

Omoikane, goddess of sounds (Jennika)

Scope of Domain: All forms of sounds, including voices, music, any other kind of sound, and things most people can't hear. Can enchant any sound to be able to influence reality or minds.

Room: A concert hall with some attached rooms for each band member to have a personal space with each one themed around their individual domains, and one garage.

Dōsojin, goddess of travel (Tusk)

Personality: Rough, quiet to people outside of her band, but kind-hearted enough to try and help people who are lost and would've otherwise met with a horrible fate.

Scope of Domain: Can basically teleport anyone anywhere, whether through taking them there through a vehicle ride (her preferred method) or teleporting them there. She can also spontaneously summon various means to travel or influence existing vehicles.

Motivation: Usually acts to help people who are lost, specifically those she knows won't ever be able to go home for one reason or another otherwise. Normally she just follows the rest of the band.

Quirk: She can see the fastest route to get anywhere like a built-in GPS in her brain.

Omoikane and her band's appearance defaults to the outfits they wore during their concert performance in the comics.

Izanami, goddess of rebirth (Venus)

Appearance: Has her post-becoming whole appearance. She wears a white and light blue kimono and veil, plus has a mask-like cyan marking around her eyes. Her eyes are also usually light blue with white pupils.

Personality: Quiet and tends to keep to her own business, but isn't actively reclusive.

Scope of Domain: She can give new life to the dead by either arranging for their souls to go to a developing body or straight up crafting it for them. She can also shape the bodies of those still living as if they were made out of clay. She can also alter memories, either wiping them away to give fresh starts or implanting false ones.

Room: Is mostly a serene garden with a large clear blue lake with a pottery space that Izanami uses to make new bodies for souls seeking rebirth or a direct return to life.

Motivation: To help those who've been left disembodied or give villains a second chance without letting them continue to cause harm.

Quirk: Whenever she suffers a notable injury, illness, or something that should kill her, she will literally shed her entire body and make a new one within less than a second.

Benzaiten, goddess of time (Lita)

2003

Freyr, god of water (Leo)

Scope of domain: Rules over all sources of heat. Can make volcanoes appear in random places or cause things to spontaneously combust in flames. Can also take heat away from something.

Room: A tropical island with a volcano at its center, said volcano sometimes erupts when he's upset enough.

Motivation: Wants to try and use his powers to do good, but it is hard when they are so reactive to his volatile emotions.

Jord, god of earth (Donnie)

Appearance: Looks like a golem made out of brown colored stone.

Personality: Close to canon.

Scope of domain: Can shape rocks into water form he wants, including making regular rocks into precious gemstones.

Common power manifestation: Looks like clouds.

This post will go over some random characters from the multiverse that have been impacted by the gods in the Pantheon. This can manifest in several ways:

They got displaced from their original world against their will (something Atlas is the most common culprit for doing).

A god chooses to intervene in their world's story in some way.

A god chooses to claim them as a follower, which depending on the god can cause physical or mental changes along with getting new powers.

They encounter a god that has chosen to enter their universe for a more casual visit or otherwise didn't come in with the intention of actively changing anything (less like to make them a noteworthy variant, but can still change characters depending on how strongly the god reacts to them).

Or they end up encountering someone who was more directly impacted by the actions of the gods. This is usually in the form of either followers coming into universes or travelers coming in to either visit or try to change something.

Note: This whole idea started off as just me wanting to create a scenario where I can kind of play around with the versions of characters I've seen in other creators' fanworks and fanfics and I wasn't sure if I'd ever actually show it to other people. I don't really know how to navigate this sort of situation and for the most part the focus will be on the Pantheon of gods with these characters serving mostly as side stories or just a way to bolster the numbers of groups outside of a handful that are important to the plot due to them closely interacting with the gods in ways that impact the main part of the story. For now I'm just gonna try and make the stories into more vague or generalized versions of themselves in case some of the creators don't want their own works explicitly featured here. I'm mostly saying this because some of the works I had made ideas for have very uncommon plots to have in the fandom and I wanted to make it clear that I didn't make the stories for any of the characters' origin worlds myself, I only made the storylines they go through after a god or traveler has interacted with their origin world.

Nomad

-Character type: 2012 Leo, origin world is set after the season 4 finale but doesn't include any season 5 content

-World Origin: Was Donnie and Mikey centric, with the storyline basically following the idea that the family dynamic is too dysfunctional (with it being more emphasized that Leo and Raph's behaviors are depicted as particularly abusive both emotionally and physically) which leads to Donnie and Mikey running away. While Leo and Raph are depicted with sympathetic qualities where it's clear that they are troubled (Leo becomes depressed after it sets in that Donnie and Mikey chose to leave for so long and they aren't in danger and may not be coming back, while Raph becomes progressively more self-destructive due to not knowing how to handle his feelings with the dynamics with the people in his life being disrupted so much), they are both still largely framed as the main antagonists and end up being depicted as deserving it or bringing it upon themselves as they lose basically all the connections they had with their allies during their attempts to find their younger brothers, and they are both framed as incompetent on their own.

-How the gods changed things: Is one of Atlas' earliest cases of displacing someone, and unlike most who are taken by surprised or otherwise tricked into walking into a portal at the last second, Nomad just had the portal appear near him when he felt like his whole life was irreparably broken. Figuring he had nothing to lose anymore and that everyone would be better off if something bad happened to him, he went in. He ended up in a artificially made universe that was basically a hub for various Mikeys across the multiverse to meet up and help each other through their struggles from their home universes. The creator of this artificial universe, a 2012 Mikey with genius level intellect, made Nomad a device called a Portable Dimension Tunneller (PDT for short) so he could get home, but Nomad instead decided that he'd try to find a new purpose by travelling around the multiverse and helping people change their stories for the better. He thinks no one back home will really care that he's gone, especially since he now has a extremely self-depreciating view of himself, so he avoids his home universe and any unaltered copies of it like the plague.

-Status: Actively travelling around the multiverse. Heavily important to story (obviously, the multiverse scenario is named after him after all).

-Appearance: Goes from wearing a mask to having blue face paint (the mask is now tied around a small section of his waist belt). Has a slightly ragged looking hooded cape that is a blue-gray color. Has his PDT on his wrist most of the time. Carries around a brown satchel bag that was gifted to him by a multiversal god so it has unlimited space. Has some new additions on his belts that allow him to carry more visible weapons, and his katanas are kept on the side of his waist belt. Everything else is from his original outfit that he wore when he left his universe, but it all looks messier and more worn out.

-Personality/Behavior Change: Outwardly, he comes across as being cheerful, albeit a bit reckless and impulsive. He also tends to confuse people by acting friendly but being avoidant of forming proper friendships and expresses not wanting to settle in any one spot. He's also rather forgiving when it comes to villainous or antagonistic versions of characters that are usually heroes in the main iterations of the universes (the canon iterations in the TMNT franchise), he knows what they did is wrong but wants to give them a chance to do better by giving them the option to no longer be trapped in a world that defines them by their mistakes despite the risks that come from letting them free upon the multiverse. His biggest value is freedom, which is a large part of how the DPTs got turned into a widespread piece of technology. Internally, his self-esteem is extremely low and he's convinced that if anyone spends too much time around him they'll inevitably come to hate him, he's so reckless with his own life because he thinks no one at home wants him to return and he started his travels feeling like he had no reason left to live and was simply persisting until something kills him, as time goes on his feelings become more complicated.

2. Taiyo

-Character type: 2012 Mikey, set after season 4 finale but doesn't include any season 5 content, he was in his early adult years before his world had any interactions with the wider multiverse.

-World Origin: A story where all of Mikey's brothers weren't able to handle their emotions in the aftermath of Splinter's death and slowly left the lair one by one within about a year, leaving Mikey to live there alone with only Ice Cream Kitty for company. He became depressive and experiences some traumatic things while still trying to fight crime. His world gets thrown off its intended course at about the second year mark.

-How the gods changed things: Atlas decided to drop a 2012 Leo from a different universe into Taiyo's universe. Taiyo saves this Leo by catching him as he was falling from the sky, though aside from giving him a place to stay Taiyo isn't equipped to actually help him get home. Instead, this Leo, despite struggling with his own troubling situation back home, notices that Taiyo doesn't really take care of himself and starts to do chores, bond with Ice Cream Kitty to make her less lonely, and even attempts to learn how to cook just because otherwise he would feel bad about not doing anything to actually help. This effort helps pull Taiyo out of his depression and the two more or less adopt each other with Taiyo being this Leo;s (who gets the nickname 'Hoshi') older brother since this Leo's about 17 while Taiyo is in his mid 20s. While it is a odd shift to get used to, Hoshi does eventually start embracing a healthy balance of helping support Taiyo while also getting to act his age instead of being a pseudo-parent. Hoshi's presence also leads to several tragedies to be averted and for Rocksteady and Bebop to be added to their small found family situation. Ultimately Taiyo was approached with a deal by Atlas and was forced to comply since otherwise the antagonists of the story would've been able to blow up the lair which Taiyo is now much more determined to protect than in the intended course of the story, resulting in him becoming one of Atlas' Arch Angels.

-Status: One of Atlas' Arch Angels, but still lives in his original universe and is trying to hide his status as a follower of a multiversal god from his loved ones. Has to leave his home universe for missions Atlas sends him on. He's one that I like, but isn't terribly important to story.

-Appearance: Normal appearance is obviously a little taller due to being a adult, is also slightly rougher and more muscular than the typical 2012 Mikey. He now wears a long black mask with the tips fading into a red-orange color, the rest of his gear also leans towards almost being black. When he's in his Arch Angels form he gains a mark in his right eye that is a red sun that is in a similar line style as a pentagram, his halo is a round red and more cartoonish looking sun with the center being a circle and the rays being detached triangles around the circle's edges, his wings are detached from his body and are primarily black with the tips of the feathers fading into a red-orange color but otherwise look like a bird's wings, also has red sun markings on his palms.

-Follower powers: Can completely erase things, both physical objects and messing with a person's mind. He can do this either by directly touching the object/person, or he can apply it in a long-range form by manifesting balls of glowing red energy that he can direct towards a target.

-Personality/Behavior Change: He's mostly diverged in that he isn't as depressed as he would've become had things gone down their intended path, but he's still prone to feeling he needs to internalize his negative emotions despite having others around. He also dislikes when anyone tries to alter his current life situation, especially when it comes to travelers saying that Hoshi doesn't belong with him and he should be trying to get Hoshi back home, which results in him being aggressive. When around Hoshi and the few others he accepts in his inner circle he acts like a slightly more matured 2012 Mikey, in addition to acting more like a big brother to Hoshi. When he's on missions as a Arch Angel, he is aggressive and focused on trying to get the mission done, he's not sadistic and very rarely ever takes enjoyment in hurting others, but he also won't go against Atlas or his fellow Arch Angels.

3. Colonel

-Character type: 2012 Mikey, is from a bad future based on SAINW so he is a middle-aged adult.

-World Origin: Since he already had a nickname that is used, I'm confirming that he's from 'His Father's War' by Takashidaimao on fanfiction.net.

-How the gods changed things: Butch and a 2012 Leo (who will end up getting the nickname 'Ace') from a different universe got displaced by Atlas and got dropped off in Colonel's bad future world. Ace was the first one and struggled to adapt due to the events from his own world making him wary of trusting a version of Mikey with a leadership position and hating that he's a teenager amongst a bunch of adults that look down on him a bit since he didn't grow up in the dystopic future. It didn't help that Colonel misguidedly wanted to try and protect Ace by keeping him out of the war effort since it isn't Ace's world and thus he shouldn't have to be sucked into the conflict if it can be avoided, but eventually they did talk it out with Ace explaining the situation that had been happening at his home universe and Colonel agreeing to let Ace help out so long as he's careful. About a year after Ace arrived, Butch got dropped into this universe and ended up having to also find shelter with Colonel's rebels, and Butch was arguably worse than Ace due to him not even wanting to help nor being willing to listen to anybody due to some unclear irritation he wouldn't name the cause of. At least until a event that no one else knows about caused Butch to suddenly seem to accept his current situation more and express a sense of guilt that Colonel struggled to try and get him to talk about (Colonel is a bit bad at emotions now, so is Butch). As the years go on Colonel basically emotionally adopts Ace and Butch as his kids (though he will deny this if it is commented on), but his main goal is to keep the two alive long enough for him to be able to figure out how to get them back to their home universes.

-Status: Currently only indirectly affected by the intervention of a multiversal god, still in his own universe and is planning on staying there. Isn't terribly important to story.

4. Butch

-Character type: Rise Donnie, is from a post-movie timeline where they weren't able to bring Leo back from Dimension X.

-World Origin: A universe where Leo's brothers weren't able to get him out of Dimension X in the events of the movie, leading Donnie to obsess over searching the multiverse to locate him. The continued disappointment leads him to change the plan to grabbing a Leo to turn into a replacement (though he's still consciously in denial that he is replacing Leo instead of getting him back).

-How the gods changed things: Right as he was about to actually kidnap a Leo, Atlas created a portal right below him which dropped him off in Colonel's world. Atlas also made sure that he couldn't easily get himself out by cursing Butch to be stuck in that universe no matter what technology he uses. For a long time Butch's irritation at his plan being foiled at the last second became his defining emotion that effected how he interacted with everyone. He did attempt to try and do a lesser version of his plan with Ace, mostly in making recommendations for his appearance and introducing some of his Leo's interest to Ace (Ace of course had no idea that this was manipulation, he thought Butch just wanted to bond with the only other person around who was also displaced from their home universe). Atlas eventually came back and forced Butch to see what would've happened if he hadn't been displaced, facing the horrifying end result of his attempts to force a 2012 Leo to become a replacement for a Rise Leo (leaving that Leo almost hopelessly mentally broken and disturbing just to look at, on top of all that this Leo would've became extremely dangerous to everyone). The thing that really broke Butch though, was the reveal that his actual Leo was actually alive and had landed in the 2012 universe, albeit with one less arm and temporary amnesia. So, not only was everything he would've put that 2012 Leo through would be pointless, but if he hadn't been in such a rush to kidnap another family's Leo he could've actually rescued his real Leo. After all that he drops Butch back into Colonel's world, and Butch is now experiencing guilt and has decided everyone back in his own world is better of without him and instead focuses on trying to make a new place in Colonel's world.

-Status: Displaced and stuck in the world he got displaced into, is now resigned to staying in that world. Isn't terribly important to story.

-Appearance: Underdeveloped, but I imagine him with a outfit that is slightly more leaning towards being about as casual as a military themed outfit can be, with muted colors.

5. The Exorcist

-Character type: A variant of a OC named Remy that was originally made by Suzukiwee1357 from Deviantart, though this one is based on a story made by Tamersworld from Deviantart. He was in his young adult years before a god intervened in his world.

-World Origin: The bad future timeline Tamersworld made where Ginas betrayed everyone.

-How the gods changed things: Right before the 'kiss' that would've killed him happened, Atlas froze time and told Remy about what the story had in mind for him. He then offered Remy a deal so he could stop the demodragon invasion. Not having a lot of options, Remy took it and became one of Atlas' Arch Angels. Remy/The Exorcist then used his newly gifted powers to raise the dead as beings who are predators hungry for demodragon flesh. This 'hunt' is ongoing, so his world is full of Pseudo Angels that don't hurt anyone except demodragons, while the remaining demodragons struggle to survive and hide from the Exorcist and the Pseudo Angels. The Exorcist is often called in by Atlas on missions to worlds that have demodragons (usually just Kavaxas) to attack them.

-Status: Is one of Atlas' Arch Angels, regularly travels to and from his universe due to Atlas sending him out on missions. Is one of the ones I like, but isn't terribly important to the story.

-Appearance: The majority of his body is covered in silvery armor, this includes a helmet that covers his mouth and nose bridge area, and in combination with him often using the wings on the sides of his head to fold over what would otherwise be the uncovered area of his eyes, It is difficult to see his face at all. His halo is a glowing golden Star of David with a small circle in the center. He has grown 3 pairs of wings in total, there is one pair that is on his head, one pair on his back, and a pair that has each wing located on the outer side of each foot, these wings are the typical white angel wings style outside of the cyan blue eye markings on them (the Exorcist can see out of these eyes, and the head wings basically function the same as normal eyes for him). If his face was visible, his main eyes would be shown to now be almost entirely a glowing cyan blue, with his left eye having a white Star of David with his pupil now being a small white dot at its center, the right eye now has a white diamond shaped star in it, and both his 'eyebrows' and freckles have turned into additional eyes that are cyan blue with white pupils, and his expression typically looks neutral, only changing in anticipation of a successful demodragon kill. He can change his mouth to a limited degree, mainly in that he can either have a normal mouth that just has sharpened canines, or he can open up the metal plates that normally cover his mouth to reveal a maw of fangs that belongs more in a horror movie. He's also normally carrying a sword around that is strong enough to slice through demodragon flesh easily. For the most part I made his design to basically be similar to but thematically opposite to the demodragons, making him the (slightly biblically accurate) angel knight to their demonic dragon designs.

-Follower powers: Can let out a 'scream' that sounds more like a loud trumpet, which can either raise the dead as Pseudo Angels or to direct the existing Pseudo Angels' actions. He also is physically strong enough to rip apart the normally unstoppable demodragons on top of slicing them up with his sword.

In this version of the multiverse that is ruled over by the Pantheon of gods, there are some weird rules to how things work between and within the worlds. Several of these quirks come from it being acknowledged by one of the gods (Atlas) that the multiverse is just made up of fanworks and made for the entertainment of those beyond even the Pantheon's reach.

Until a outside force interacts with it or some new canon has been added to the story, a world will be stuck endlessly repeating the events of the story up to wherever it has been cut off, the only way the loop ends is if something from outside the universe's canon enters and it properly joins the multiverse.

Once a universe's loop has been broken, a copy of that universe is made that continues on with the unaltered story until a outside force comes to take it off the track again, and a new copy will be made each time.

Deleted universes can still be accessed, but they are much more unstable since they are copies based on the memories of those who got to actually see the original instead of having a solid connection to the multiverse. The originals are preserved in Pluto's room behind the doors.

Some universes have time differentials from other ones, some only have a difference of seconds equaling minutes, but others can have 1 month equal years in another universe. The weirdest part of this quirk though is that, upon leaving their original universe, a multiversal traveler's aging will still be connected to that universe, meaning that someone can be travelling around the multiverse for many years and barely age at all.
