Editing Torg (section)

==Setting==

The game is set and sprawls across infinite different dimensions and realities called cosm(s) with each being a different genre. Every cosm is mostly self-contained but with two unifying elements common to all - a Darkness Device and its linked ruler known as the High Lord. Below cosms are realms which are tempoary areas of a foreign cosm that a High Lord has invaded with the use of the aforementioned Darkness Device. Realms take on the axioms and world laws of the invading cosm, but a High Lord can modify these in the realm to better subdue the population or more efficiently drain the cosm's "possibility" energy. The realm conversion drains possibility energy which feeds the Darkness Device and High Lord, rinse and repeat ad infinitum.

Each cosm also has its own four axioms and three World Laws and each cosm survives by invading other realms and converting them to its native reality. Meanwhile, the inhabitants of most invaded realms transform into those of the invading cosm, while a few become Storm Knights, also known as Stormers - the player characters of Torg. 

Earth in-universe is an unusual 'realm rich in possibility energy' and the only way to access all of it is to have a number of cosms invade all at once. Initially six cosms invade and thus start the Possibility Wars, but this later complicates with the arrival of new realms and power players.
