"Contradictory stories can cause a natural disaster known as a 'reality storm', The most powerful of which can have potentially apocalyptic consequences"

[NJW2000]

I look forward to seeing what kind of people will arise in a universe where someone could use bragging and lies to become a god emperor.

I can't imagine a world leader doing that nowadays.



The most important species are immortal spiders, whose string shows each story, connecting all of them into a giant and always growing web. But the world was not created by a spider, but by a mysterious being known as the Author, the subject and teller of the first story.

(Cycle 2, Truth 6, Amendment)

[Empiricist]

Most creatures hurt their prey and competitors through slander, be it spoken or engraved in their very fangs and talons.

[Kakaluncha]

The Nightmare is an aberration of corrupted dreams and lies, with it's only purpose being the corruption of all Dreams, and to scare other beings

[Naturegirl1999]

The Truth Snake is a snake that preserves truth by searching for and eating liars

[piecewise]

Dreams count as stories, but their effects are fickle, lasting only as long as their dremer dreams. (Cycle 2 Truth 4)

Cycle 1: Ultimate Truth
1: Stories are real.

Cycle 2: Great Truths
1."The size of the world at any given time is directly proportional to the amount of people who tell stories" Is the accepted truth but in fact the world has many sizes, and can be endless or have no size at all, depending for each person on the stories they know.

2. There are many species, each of whom have their own stories

3.  Any story told even if its a lie might become reality.

4. Dreams count as stories, but...

5. Different species prefer different tropes, and these tropes shape the land locally based on the amount of storytellers.

6. The most important species are immortal spiders, whose string shows each story, connecting all of them into a giant and always growing web. But the world was not created by a spider, but by a mysterious being known as the Author, the subject and teller of the first story.

7. Dreams count as stories and their effects are even more permanent and long lasting than normal stories.

8. Contradictory stories simply cancel each other out harmlessly.

9. Most creatures hurt their prey and competitors through slander.

10. The Nightmare is an aberration of corrupted dreams and lies, with it's only purpose being the corruption of all Dreams, and to scare other beings. This is the accepted truth, but...



Truths 4 and 10 are still open to be amended, and because of that the cycle itself is still open for potential rewrites. We will move on to the next cycle as soon as everything is finished.

[Naturegirl1999]

Dreams count as stories, but when the entity that dreamed them wakes up or dies, the dreams morph into the opposites of what the dreamer dreamed about
(Amendment To Truth 4)

The Nightmare is an aberration of corrupted dreams and lies, with it's only purpose being the corruption of all Dreams, and to scare other beings. This is the accepted truth, but Nightmares are the opposites of various dreams
(Amendment To Truth 10)

[Leonardo8]

The Nightmare is an aberration of corrupted dreams and lies, with it's only purpose being the corruption of all Dreams, and to scare other beings. This is the accepted truth, but it is actually a stabilizing force, absorbing the wildest dreams into itself in order to avoid the nocturnal havoc they would cause.

Amendment to truth 10

[Jerick]

Dreams count as stories, but the effects of them always take place far away from the dreamer.
(Amendment To Truth 4)

[piecewise]

Feel free to post multiple amendments to either, I'll do a roll off to see whose is true.

[dgr11897]

Dreams count as stories, but it is the Id, the primal beast within all creatures, which shapes these, rather than one's conscious mind.

Cycle three: Truths about the nature of the world

2.
3...


We have the bones of the universe set, now we work on the world built upon them. The history or features of the world, specific details about the origins of life on it, the species that inhabit it, etc. Planets, planes, moons, regions, mountains, valleys, species, the rise and fall of continents, all is free game.

[Naturegirl1999]

One of the spiders tells a story about a planet called Thetss, weaving it into existence. Thetas is a planet of mostly water, with ice at the surface to contain the water. The water contains various chemicals, which over time form into self replicating structures aka life
(Cycle 2, Truth 6)

"Ruins from ancient civilizations that predate the creation of the world can occasionally be found."

[Kakaluncha]

The Ones Who Float are titanic Whales that float around the Universe. These Whales mate for life, and can live for eons. Inside each Floating Whale exist an ecosystem, that varies with the Whale. The Whales demonstrate some sentience and are REALLY smart. They communicate with small stories.
