Shard of the Nexus - The Great Tree

This world, The Great Tree, contains a shard of The Nexus. Denezins of this world or universe may travel to and from the Nexus and its connected worlds provided that this realm has a means of traveling there.   Individuals or entities of this world have access to the Nexus - Right of Combat, which allows access to, and use of Nexus Node - "The Arena". Nexus Node - "The Atelier" Nexus Node - "The Cataclysm" @nexus as well as access to other Nexus Nodes.   Parallel continuity is enforced here, should there be an existence-ending event within a related realm, leaving this one unaffected.   This shard, this piece of choas incarnate has opened a door the creators of the world would not have anticipated. Allowing the Wayfares Guild an additional challenge, for their magic cannot touch this shard. An auger of times to be, was, an agent of chance. This shard will remain at the core of the world, it's purpose unknown. It's disengagement known to none, save for the one who placed it's like in the trunk of the Tree.

Manifestation

Those traveling between worlds may hear a voice informing them of the changes they are undergoing. Entities who attempt to use abilities or items not suited for the world may experience side effects or penalties. These include, but are not limited to:
  • headache
  • diarrhea
  • upset stomach
  • nausea
  • people coming to get you
  • runny nose
  • sneezing
  • silver chains appearing from the ground and restricting their actions
  • sore throat
  • fatigue
  • hallucinations.
  Upon landing in the Branches of the Tree, the interloper will feel a wide variety of effects not listed above. Those with no magical Talent in any variety will feel little to no changes, howvere if the interloper has divine attributes they may or may not be hunted by either The Quartet or The Eight Divines soley depending on the nature of their abilities. Should they enter the world in the past present or future, will also depend on who answers you.   Those with evil or ill fated powers will be felt across all levels of the Tree, their presence known almost instantly to any of the Denziens of the Tree, making it nearly impossible to hide in any capacity. The Interloper will be followed, watched, and possibly "dealt with". It is best to leave the way one came as swiftly as possible, the Tree need no more Shadows to walk in the eaves of the gods. If unable to leave, it is best to attempt to surpress their power to the largest degree possible.   Those with positive dispositions or else powers relating to aspects of good or neutral tendancies, should run. The Shadows are hungry depending on what age and era the interloper has fallen into. Your power is what they hunger for, a dark cloud to decend on you. A black ring to grace your every move. One of this divine power should seek The Elsewhere immidately. Use your forbidden knowledge to be answered as soon as possible, for you are prey.

Localization

Those with powerful magical abilites will largely be ignored by the gods, unless you seek them out. Though depending on who you are asking for, this may prove to be somewhat suicidal. Your powers will fall under you base elemental property and on a three tiered basis. Powerful casters, will fall under a Domain, where with but a little concentration and intention, can command the very concepts of your elements to your wishes. A Greater Talent is reserved for those who are competent and versed to a large degree in magic. While you can use your powers freely, you cannot manipulate the concepts or realities as one with a Domain can. A lesser talent is a weaker form, reserved for those with singluar spells or specializations pertaining to only three or four spells.   All patrons powers will now be an inborn power on the branches of the Tree. Your god or master unable to hear or assist you. Creatures with racial abilites will largely remain the same, though any ancentral ties will be broken as they are yours and yours alone, a species of one. Cursed creatures such as but not limited to: Vampires, Lycanthropes, Undead, Mutants. Will be granted by the chance to shift forms at will, The Great tree limiting these abilites to a large degree. On the Branches of the tree you are concidered a Shadow Touched Soul, shouls one of the Shadows take credence, you will be beholden to them.   All levels of technology technically exist. Ionic, Nuclear, Interstellar, Quantum power only exist withing a pocket dimension of The Elsewhere. Your technology will not function properly unless in the Queen of the Fae's realm. Technology from the prehistoric to the Industrial Age of Man function as intended.   Cybernetics and Synthetic beings will have their technolgy phased into a biological form. The full range of your abilities now being concidered inborn abilities, or converted to handheld versions of the existing technology. Though the same limitaions to form of power still apply as above.
