DIMENSIONS
There is space everlasting, worlds without end. Of the endless number of dimensions, the Bureau has visited [REDACTED]. Most dimensions are beyond conveyable comprehension or description in records using a 26-letter alphabet. These are some of the declassified and more tangible dimensions which can be approximated in language. The dimension you are reading this in, Bureau Prime Escher-Crowley Pseudonumerological 4D Reference Axis Byzanto-Greenwich Mean Time Standard Reality, henceforth referred to as “Standard Reality”, is the benchmark from which fieldwork is conducted.
DIMENSIONAL REGISTRY
- ZO0N8-MONTAUK: Most thoroughly explored of the tunnelworlds (no. 98 of 228 recorded). Surveyors who have returned still report no end to the pipeworks. Accessed via spiral-marked manhole covers.
- GV4LH-CANDLEROOM: Travelers who enter derelict transportation vehicles and places such as shipwrecks, abandoned train stations, and decommissioned aircraft may find themselves here upon exiting. All places are reachable from here- meaning that Entities from those places can be found here too. The Transit Authority keeps the peace for the most part, but its many eyes are not omniscient.
- JBUR5-KAPPA: Mirror plane which due to hostile inhabitants has not been thoroughly explored. Entry gateways occur rarely upon the re-reflection of mirrors (as in the case of parallel mirrors, i.e. elevator mirrors) of at least five reflections, upon which KAPPA-dimension entities can crawl out of mirror plane into adjacent dimensions.
- Y3UNF-FLAGSHIP: No matter where you go, the water seeps in slowly. There is a feeling this place doesn’t want you to leave.
- MIHOB-JUNG: Detritus of an earlier dimension which collapsed in on itself. JUNG-dimension is similar to Standard Reality, with the notable exception that triangles have more sides, though the same number of points.
- 9M0HI-ALEPH: The VOIDPLANE. Dimensional backwater and prison colony. Parajudicial Class Z Misdemeanors may include punishment up to and including banishment to the VOIDPLANE.
- XS1B3-ORPHEUM: An uncanny valley effect of geometry, like a mirror-house made of concrete. Surfaces do not align, walls and ceilings at incomprehensible angles, paths and stairs to inexplicable places. Agents report a sense of feeling on the brink of symmetry yet confronted by non-euclidian asymmetry.
- G93M9-SYZYGY: In this place the sky is all neon, and there is an unending sense of déjà vu. Shadows don’t work right, and angles have too many degrees. When one returns from this plane, there are numerous journal entries that one does not remember writing down.
- X33SN-BROADCAST: Throughout the dimension one hears a hum, like far-off conversations. Are there people hidden in the dimension, or trapped in adjacent hidden worlds? Any structure in this dimension are larger on the inside than the outside.
- CF7KO-VISIONARIUM: A place of halcyon light and sky. The longer one stays, the further the daydream deepens. Strict time limits must be observed by travelers.
- 40RPJ-BUZZARD: A lighthouse-dimension, shining through into numerous adjacent worlds. Strange entities, much akin to Standard Reality’s strange deep-sea fish, are attracted to this reality.
- WMH32-SKYLIGHT: A gallery of past futures. Imagined alternate worlds from throughout interdimensional space are consolidated here, with tempting visions of long-dead fantasy. A graveyard to utopia.
- F7SJN-THRONE: The ego dissolves at a higher-than-standard rate here, and there is a danger of confusing oneself with others. One will see colors they have never seen before or after visiting THRONE.
- OXVW7-WAYSTATION: A physical manifestation of the frequency between radio stations. Travelers will find that there are voices in the static. Beware the Radio-Silent Man.
- VON7Q-ECHO: The place you hear when you put a seashell to your ear.
- VFVT0-SANCTUARY: Traders from all dimensions congregate here. However for travelers from Standard Reality, the price can only be paid with one’s soul.
- DW734-LODESTONE: This dimension can only be located by means of special cryptocartographic charts, combining topography and optical illusion. Upon arrival, travelers find that there are some places where one can climb a ladder only to re-emerge where one started, go up towers that lead underground, go through basement doors that come out onto balcony overlooks. Space begins to go mad.
- MFEDA-EUCLID: Time is in retrograde here. It is a stacked dimension, like a monstrous origami with an uncountable number of sides.
