In the infinitude of infinitudes, cast first in the afterglow of The Big Bang, a series of events had to occur in order for what we perceive as the universe to 'begin'; a series of formulas, choices, chance happenings down to the milisecond and decimal point for everything and anything to break free from the nothing. These events, these choices, they effected not just one universe, but every possible universe imaginable. Like a stone cast in a pond, it created ripples. What we perceive as our universe, in our Milky Way, on our Earth - Earth Prime, for all intents and purposes - is not alone.
There are an infinite amount of universes, of Milky Ways, of Earths, that all took different paths than ours, that were made up of the smallest but most important divergences that make them so different and separated from us.
Universes whose laws of science, even magic, diverge and alter their realities around them.
There are very few who are aware of these other, alternate universes. Whether they were born with it or not, it's a difficult awareness to turn off, or shut out. Doctor Nandi Nkomo, a South African transfer, is the current scientist spearheading the decades-old project. Her main objective is to band together these people, and send them through the rift and into other universes. Their jobs? Protectors and guardians of reality.
For humanity, in this universe, is not alone in their awareness. There is another. A far-flung divergence, and alternate universe cast to the brink of madness and destruction, clogged with dark matter, with nearly every equation and alignment of numbers against the prospect of hospitable life anywhere. Yet they live. And they suffer. And they hate. They have become aware of the alternates just as Earth Prime has. But, perhaps out of desperation, or perhaps the drive to destroy as their universe has taught them, their goal is to conquer and burn.
They've been spreading across the infinity, from universe to universe, using their forces of darkness to overwhelm and conquer realities unprepared for the onslaught.
Our job, as those inclined to help, rather than harm, is to defend these universes.
By manipulating the rifts in between these universes, our heroes can align their consciousness with themselves, from other universes. People who have lived their lives and experienced their world so radically different than ours, but maintain the similarities in personality that make up who they are, across the infinity.
