Here’s a comprehensive summary covering the main elements we’ve explored within the ORDER multiverse—including its organization, key facilities, notable realms, and characters. This overview serves as a broad reference to the unique universe ORDER operates within, capturing the depth and diversity of its missions, technologies, and personalities.

ORDER as an Organization

ORDER is an enigmatic and powerful organization established to protect the multiverse from threats that could disrupt its stability. Founded by Glitch Daracova after the Chaos Age and the collapse of the Galactic Republic, ORDER has evolved into a multiverse-spanning intelligence agency dedicated to safeguarding reality itself. Originally a family-led initiative, ORDER has grown in influence, with its advanced technologies, specialized personnel, and elite operatives enabling it to manage cross-realm relations, neutralize supernatural threats, and conduct multiversal research.

The organization is known for recruiting individuals from all walks of life, including condemned criminals given second chances as No Profound Class (NPC) personnel. ORDER provides opportunities for education, personal growth, and skill development, fostering a structured, disciplined community loyal to ORDER’s mission. With its vast resources and advanced technologies, ORDER maintains a careful balance between diplomacy and enforcement across various realms, navigating complex alliances and inter-realm politics to ensure the multiverse remains stable.

Key Facilities

  1. ORDER Tower
    • Located on New Earth and extending into other realms, ORDER Tower serves as the central hub of ORDER’s operations. A remarkable feat of dimensional engineering, the Tower’s interior is much larger than its exterior, with sections existing across multiple realms. It includes Null-Sec zones open to civilians, encouraging cross-realm interaction and recruitment while respecting inter-realm regulations. Vertigo, a Null-Sec township in Pandemon_ium, allows visitors to experience elements of Pandemon_ium’s culture in a controlled environment.
  2. The Afterlife4
    • A super-dreadnought operating within the chaotic realm of the Breach, Afterlife4 is ORDER’s largest mobile hub, designed to function entirely within the Breach. Equipped with multiple Vargas Field generators to shield against Breachfire, Afterlife4 acts as a base of operations for cross-realm missions and a refueling station for other ORDER ships. Overseer Michael Shadesmith commands this vessel, maintaining ORDER’s presence within the Breach and managing sensitive inter-realm operations.
  3. Site 42
    • Directed by Doctor Leo, Site 42 is ORDER’s high-security containment facility, tasked with neutralizing or incarcerating high-risk threats to the multiverse. It houses dangerous entities and failed experiments, including some of Seth Shadesmith’s corrupt progeny. The facility also hosts Project Iceman, an ongoing research initiative attempting to replicate nano-augmented abilities similar to cryozyme without the accompanying madness. Doctor Leo’s strict protocols and classified research define Site 42 as one of ORDER’s most secure and secretive installations.
  4. Vulka’s Workshop
    • Located in the realm of Ferro_nyx, Vulka’s Workshop is a vast, automated production facility that manufactures high-tech equipment, weapons, and nanotech components. Overseen by Vulka, a skilled engineer of unknown origin, the Workshop spans a continent on Ferro_nyx’s third planet. It is staffed by ORDER’s elite Ferros Engineers, who complete contracts under extreme conditions. The Workshop produces hexagrammic weapons for supernatural containment and supplies critical resources to other ORDER facilities, maintaining operational self-sufficiency in the resource-rich realm of Ferro_nyx.

Notable Realms

  1. New Earth
    • A key hub of ORDER’s activities, New Earth is the central seat of the New Earth Government, with which ORDER maintains diplomatic relations. ORDER Tower stands here, linking New Earth to various other realms via its cross-realm infrastructure. New Earth’s advanced society and structured government make it an important ally and recruitment source for ORDER.
  2. Pandemon_ium
    • A dark, supernatural realm known for its diverse inhabitants, including demons, goblins, vampires, and chimeras, Pandemon_ium is the location of Vertigo, a Null-Sec township linked to ORDER Tower. Vertigo provides a unique space for inter-realm interactions while preserving the local culture. Pandemon_ium’s residents often frequent JACK’S, a tavern run by Jack the Snowman, a former Project Iceman subject, now a beloved figure in Vertigo.
  3. Ferro_nyx
    • A smaller yet stable realm rich in nanomaterials, Ferro_nyx is where Vulka’s Workshop operates. Known for its unending ore veins and abundant resources, Ferro_nyx supports continuous production, making it a vital supply source for ORDER’s advanced technology needs. The realm’s unusual properties make it ideal for industrial operations, despite its hazardous environment.
  4. The Breach
    • A chaotic, nanotech-filled sub-realm that ORDER exploits for faster-than-light travel. The Breach is dangerous and unpredictable, with corrosive Breachfire that can destroy unprotected matter. Afterlife4, ORDER’s mobile base within the Breach, relies on Vargas Fields to prevent destruction and conducts multiverse exploration missions, ensuring ORDER can operate within this hostile realm.
  5. Other Realms
    • Agar_ia and Aeth_yr are realms from which adventurers regularly pass through Vertigo. These realms add to the diversity of visitors at JACK’S and allow ORDER to maintain cross-realm awareness. These adventurers often bring valuable information and rumors that feed into ORDER’s intelligence network.

Key Characters
