Premise & Rules

Premise:

At the crossroads of the fabric of space and time exists a place in the fold where all the worlds' edges meet. For as long as anyone can remember, this place has always existed, drawing in wayward souls from places so myriad and dissonant it became a wonder that, instead of conflict, came peace and cooperation. From the wake of the Rift's epicenter grew a grand and stretching city called The Nexus.

Roughly seventy percent of this world's population are known as Drifters: people who have strayed here from their own place and time. The remainder, those called Domestic, can always trace back their lineage to ancestors who had themselves been Drifters. While the exact nature of how and why the Rift exists remains a mystery at large, a few common rules have been observed:

Though flow from The Nexus back to other worlds is possible and occurs on occasion, it is rare; flow from the Rift into The Nexus, on the other hand, is frequent enough to occur nearly every day.

Most Drifters will never return to their home world - though if they do, they are almost always bound to return to The Nexus some day.

For this reason, one stalwart truth exists among this world's people: The Nexus will always and forever strive to be home to any and all who cross its threshold.



The Crystal Nexus is a tiny invitation only panfandom sandbox! The general tone for the sandbox is both slice of life with some adventure mixed in.

Pretty much any character will be welcome - OCs (including canon OCs), fandom characters, AU versions of fandom characters, duplicates, etc. - so long as said character is not a real person, not offensive, and doesn't make others within the community uncomfortable. You can choose to have your character come to The Nexus completely new, or to have been at the Nexus for some established period of time; expect some fandom characters to be wandering citizens of The Nexus at any given time. You can even have OCs be Domestic citizens if you so choose.

Continuity and setting is pretty loose and can be freely manipulated at any time. Feel free to maintain a continuity with your characters and their relationships, or feel free to do a one off post with a character you're not planning on having around frequently.


Rules:

As this community is invite-only, there will be practically no moderation, and the general rules should be common sense if you are invited: be courteous, be friendly, communicate your needs and boundaries and respect those needs and boundaries, and absolutely no bigotry or drama. This is for fun between friends, and should be treated as such!

Rule breaking will be handled on a case by case basis, but most likely you will be kicked out if you cause any problems or make anyone uncomfortable.
