The Static Map, the place where all Contestants of Nexus's game put the things that don't fit in their pockets or P.L.O.T. Device bracers. The Static Map is by no means Static, as it changes drastically and constantly. But it is a universe that can be accessed from any other universe, as long as the one trying to get there is already a resident of it.
Of course the first thing Nexus puts into the Static Map is a paradox. With a Contestant now owning an Explorer Kit that grants the ability to go underground, undergrounds now exist in the Static Map. But there is no land, or anything else. An empty universe containing nothing. But you can go under it if you can get there.
For every Patron that was paying Nexus, he brought their nominated Contestant to a classroom. Succeeding in the written and practical test earned that Contestant a Caretaker Collar which came with a Sphere, a 2d island with ambient lighting and a surrounding of dense clouds.
When Nexus allowed Lord McCracken's Patron to nominate him as a Contestant, he brought along the Overlord's Gauntlet, a piece of armor with an alignment that granted the user the ability to summon minions from the underworld do do their bidding. But since minions can now exist in the Static Map, there must be an underworld.
When Nexus allowed Tyler Brikz's Patron to nominate him as a Contestant, Tyler's own gummi ship was acquired as the first spaceship to enter the Static Map.
By completing enough courses at the Terrene Protectorate, a Contestant earns a Matter Manipulator, an item that does various things and shows you have the authority to claim a planet as your own property. It even comes with a free spaceship!
Not many Contestants bothered.
Upon graduation, the Contestants that had been part of Nexus's game for awhile realized that the Terrene Protectorate didn't offer them personal spaceships for colonization because they already had the custom-built ones Nexus made them that rescued them from the previous place they were at as Nexus blew it up.
Some Contestants either traded in their ship or already had one not made by Nexus.
The unnamed robot claimed a planet named Daenc Hydrax 4 in the name of the Terrene Protectorate, and built two houses- one for Hydrangea and one for Yumiko, as was its promise to them. There was already a civilization of glitch living there, which were not displaced or attacked.
BM06 recruited Rusty onto the starship Nexus made for her as a party member. This made the Novakid species appear in the Static Map!
Darius claims Xanthe 3 as a planet, and soon meets the Rubber family that already lives there.
None of the Contestants are aware of it, but by going where they went, the Static Map changed. Various celestial objects may now have special statistics:
Shielded Worlds: Technological shields that protect a planet from outside influence.
Shrouded Worlds: Worlds psychically shielded from outside observation.
Shattered Worlds- worlds blown into asteroid-like rubble incapable of harboring life.
The robot's ship was destroyed in orbit after it teleported to the planet below. Nexus teleported it back into the Static Map as-is.
"Out to the galaxy, steady she goes", Nexus says in a sing-song tone of voice.
The Janet that was accompanying the party lost her access to the same afterlife she came from, losing her powers. Treated as 'luggage', was sent by Nexus to Darius's Sphere.
The robot, still periodically considering what it was experiencing to be an ethics training program, offered what used to disguise itself as a human, and was therefore a human, citizenship on its planet. Screams Against Someone Else's Cage accepted the offer.
Viola bought a Synchronize P.L.O.T. Form upgrade after seeing a Caretaker Collar Bracer Form, which made a new basic Sphere appear in the Static Map under her ownership.
Upon Lynn getting a Redistributed Caretaker Collar, she put it in her bracer and sacrificed the item and slot. Nexus asked Lynn's Patron if she wanted to make a new Sphere or get a Redistributed one, and she chose the Redistributed one that Nion had since it had all the canonical cooking, nesting, and food producing upgrades possible.
When Kai's Patron nominated him, he brought with him a Vault Key, which allowed him to travel to and summon items from an extradimensional vault that gets bigger the more full it is. Now that that happened, Vaults of the same style exist in the Static Map. Then his patron stopped paying Nexus.
THIS TYPE OF BULLSHIT IS WHY ALL PLAYERS MUST CHOOSE INTERESTING ITEMS FOR ALL NEW CHARACTER APPLICATIONS!
Olivia Pretre bought a Synchronize P.L.O.T. Form after seeing the unnamed robot's Matter Manipulator form. When Nexus asked Olivia's Patron if she wanted to be able to claim a new planet at a later time or be given one from the Redistribution List, she asked for a Redistributed one. She chose the moon BM06's Patron never named.
The many noodles that were so excited about whatever Darius did were offered citizenship on Xanthe 3, and they accepted. They moved into the tents that Darius had stolen from the irradiated desert full of cannibals that he was in earlier.
While wandering around in a zombie-filled post apocalypse, Ikeda was interested in the Museum of Natural History and decided to Banish a spinosaurus display to the Static Map in orbit around his Sphere for some reason.
Right after Ikeda Banished the spinosaurus display, he Banished the stegosaurus display into orbit around his Sphere as well.
With zombies approaching en masse, Lynn asked the freegans if they would consent to her sending them and the van she had taken from the used car lot to a place where there was guaranteed safety, and they said yes. As soon as they did, she bought a Banish, sending the van and its contents to her Sphere.
Ikeda found a tank that had obviously been used against the zombie apocalypse, but didn't bother looking inside. Instead, he Banished it into orbit around his Sphere with his other moons.
Alfonso was playing with the bracer linked with his father's bracer, and bought the Banish option, sending the apocalyptically-upgraded school bus with the people he'd known for awhile to a random location near the other people already living there.
The robot didn't know where it came from, but when visiting its Sphere with Yumiko, it saw a large rock in orbit. It decided to dump the originium onto the rock so it could study it later.
Nexus wanted to show that he can create planets just as easily as a Contestant can claim one, but also create new life with its own civilizations and cultures unlike the Contestants who have to build them from their friends, victims, and refugees.
Lynn stood on her Sphere, took the dollhouse she took from a trailer park out of her bracer, and purchased At Least Three Times Bigger, making the dollhouse the size of a full mansion. However, it stayed in stationary position outside the range of her Sphere and she couldn't quite reach it.
In Lynn'a attempt to reach her dollhouse by way of her Sphere, she learned that she couldn't place any more Blocks past a certain distance, but wanted to reach her dollhouse. After purchasing Snap-To Grid, the dollhouse connected to her Sphere and walking between the dollhouse and Sphere became just as easy as walking anywhere else.
Every single citizen of the Static Map now has a bank account. Well, intelligent citizens. Well, even dumb citizens that are members of intelligent races. This does NOT mean that their planet, dollhouse, spaceship, or anything else has a bank in which to provide the service. That's up to your resident Contestant!
Teleporters, telepads, and teleportation locations purchased with I.O.U.s exist all over the Static Map. However, when Olivia purchased a comprehensive magery spellbook from a vendor near Trammel Britain, it awarded the Static Map Brittania's own moongate travel system. However, there still aren't any moongates. Setting this up is entirely up to the Contestants!
