Terminology

There are many terms which translate easily across all languages, having a universal meaning that can be thought of as loan-words or short-hands for other terms.

Detranslated

Many names of things cannot be remembered due to Physics: Detranslation phenomena. As such, they are given new names based on their remembered attributes, even if clear and specific memetic facts (such as events and identities) are unavailable.

  • “The Blue Empire” - A term used to describe a vast multisolar empire several hundred lightyears across which originated in elsewhere_universe_one which is purported to have performed many atrocities. They existed in a nightmarish utopia which had escaped death where even the thoughts of its citizens were property of the state. They wielded weapons which harmed spacetime itself causing several mass genocides, the destruction of entire star-systems and used an energy source which leeched energy from the Neverwhere, resulting in its stillbirth of an entire universe.
  • “The Mythos” - an engineered species with forms resembling an octopus, a dragon and a caricature of human form of radical horror. They were known for their remarkably predatory behavior and incredibly advanced technology. They were developed by the Blue Empire by The Irresponsible in a race to develop a warrior species to defeat an unidentified and undisclosed threat.
  • “The Katze” - Thought of as a “second version” of The Mythos, they are a super warrior species developed purely for war. Scarcely older than children but filling the vast navy of The Blue Empire, they are predominantly female and were sometimes described akin to war-maidens.
  • “He Who Resisted” - Not a man, but an entire people who refused to move forward as part of The Blue Empire, protecting their own identity and their own sense of self. They were known for being loud, brash and their vast love of fire-arms.
