History Main / Fanverse

* ''FanFic/FalloutEquestria'', a ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' crossover with ''VideoGame/{{Fallout}}''. To put this in perspective, the original story alone is, at 608,000 words, [[DoorStopper nearly fifty thousand words longer than]] ''Literature/WarAndPeace'', and the unfinished RecursiveFanfiction ''FanFic/FalloutEquestriaProjectHorizons'' (which has in turn spawned its own recursive fics) has ''over a million words''.

* At its height, ''PowerRangers'' had loads of these, including "Fanfic/PersonalityConflicts" by Ellen Brand and "Earth Crystals" by Jeremy Ray Logsden. Sadly, [[DeadFic neither of these have been updated in years]].

* ''{{Ambassadors of Liberty}}'' is a ''Franchise/StargateVerse'' RP site with several other settings in the pipelines.

* The ''Fanfic/HauntedMansionAndTheHatboxGhost'' is a fanverse created on DeviantArt by users Kelly-M-Mortal, Benthehyena and Scrooge Mac Duck. It focuses on the Haunted Mansion ride from the Disneyland parks, and includes short stories, a multi-chaptered fanfic, and various illustration and one-panel comics, all set in an unique FanVerse of which the most important character is the Hatbox Ghost.

* There are several fanfics written by the same author using DCComics heroes set during the 1940s mixing elements of modern continuity with [[UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfComicBooks Golden Age]] tropes. WordOfGod says the basic impetus of this retro-style FanVerse was an excuse to write a story where [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4540948/1/Superman_vs_Hitler Superman actually gets to punch out Hitler.]]

* ''{{Daria}}'' fanfic has expanded outwards into what's actually known as the ' ''Daria Expanded Universe'' ', with such fandom-created characters as Lynn Cullen, Jim Vitale, Pat Hackney VII, Richard Rawlings, Steve the security guard, Julia Carlyle, Michael Fulton, Alfred Phelps, Veronica Morgendorffer and Col. Kyle Armalin [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters (and that's just a]] ''partial'' [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters listing]]) of ''Daria'' [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters Expanded Universe original characters]] freely interacting with the canon characters. ({{Daria}} fans know these folks as if they had been on the show itself.) On the fandom's Wiki, there's actually a listing for the ' ''Daria Multiverse'' ', and many of the original characters have Wiki entries and histories as fully fleshed-out as the canon characters.

* ''WebOriginal/TheAethionExpandedMultiverse'' is a universe where any ''Franchise/{{Bionicle}}'' fanfic writer can put their own work in and be considered "fanon" for the universe.

* In general, all of the fanfiction written for a particular genre by [[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/390166/Michael2 Michael2]] takes place in the same FanVerse, e.g., all of the ''{{Sliders}}'' fanfiction written by Michael2 is in the same [[Fanfic/ColinMallorySeries Fan Verse]].

* The ''FanFic/BlackCrayons'' series is several Film/{{Transformers}} stories mostly set after the second film that explores the franchise from the point of view of [[CheerfulChild Annabelle Lennox]]. It all leads up to a re-written version of the third film which, among other things, keeps Mikaela in the plotline.

* The [[WhatCouldHaveBeen original, darker]] concept for ''Disney/{{Zootopia}}'', where prejudice against predators was so strong that preds were forced to wear [[RestrainingBolt shock collars]], was popular enough with fans to inspire a host of fan works set in "Zoodystopia".

** Ani-Earth is a completely different story altogether - it was a series of stories by another author that started out as a simple crossover between SonicTheHedgehog and TenchiMuyo and spiraled out of control there!

* The ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8192955/1/Vantage-Point Vantage Point]]'' series by Aggie2011 takes place in the MarvelCinematicUniverse, with focus on Black Widow, Hawkeye, and Agent Coulson. Fics are set pre- and post-Avengers, and are AU by virtue of having no canon for the events covered. World building is very LikeRealityUnlessNoted, but the inner workings of SHIELD and various missions are explored.

** ''Fanfic/TranscendenceAU'' is a verse that sprung up overnight and is currently growing exponentially. It's a bit unusual in that there's no central fic. There's a blog, and the mods of the blog are the authorities on what is or isn't canon for the verse (particularly Mod Z, or Zilleniose on Tumblr), but in general the verse's canon is pretty loose and open to contribution from anyone, which is probably one of the reasons why it's growing at the frankly astounding rate that it is. Seriously, there are several new pages of content every day.

* ''FanFic/ThePrivateDiaryOfElizabethQuatermain'' is an ''{{LXG}}'' fic series which picks up where the movie left off. It took four years to write and stretched across five complete multi-chapter stories, plus a handful of side scenes and alternate points of view. The final installment crossed over with the same author's unfinished Sherlock Holmes fanfic, thus indicating that the two stories take place in the same continuity. It also spawned a few instances of RecursiveFanfiction from other writers.

* ''Fanfic/NeonGenesisEvangelionR'' was all written by one author but it has two branching continuities and has itself spawned fan fiction (such as ''[[ColonCancer Neon Genesis Evangelion: R: Redemption]]''). It's also unusually detailed for a piece of fan fiction and elaborates substantially on the [[AncientAstronauts nature of the angels]] compared with the original series.

* In ''{{Naruto}}'' fandom, the Lace and Strawberries or Saki-chan Fan Verse, started by Asuka Kureru or Askerian. The basic premise is Sasuke dealing with his issues via cross-dressing as a Gothic Lolita that goes by the name of Saki. Not actually crack. While she has written only three fics in this verse, the number of fan-fan works has possibly reached triple digits, and includes writers such as chibirisu-chan, ice-dark elf, and crazy-toffee.

* ''OnePiece'' has one in the [[Fanfic/CrewOfTheAxe Crew Of The Axe]] due to the main fanfic crossing over with several other fics, and those fics crossing over with more fics.

* There is a fanfic version of the {{Marvel Universe}} that puts much more of an emphasis on lesser-known heroes and villains, such as the 1990s superhero ''Sleepwalker'', rather than mainstays such as {{Spider-Man}}, the ComicBook/{{Fantastic Four}} or {{Captain America}}, who usually guest star in the C-listers' own stories rather than get the main spotlight. Many aspects are also heavily reimagined, such as Gwen Stacy being alive and well as Peter Parker's one true love, and Mary Jane Watson developing her own spider-powers as Spider-Woman, with her own rogues gallery and supporting cast entirely separate from Peter's.

** ''Reverse Pines'', in which Gideon Gleeful and Pacifica Northwest are the heroes and Dipper and Mabel Pines are the villains (with Bill Cipher as their bound demon servant).

* The FanFic/ElementalChessTrilogy is effectively this. With four novel-length installments, plus one collection of side stories still being written and the possibility of yet another volume in the future, it is known as one of the largest ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist'' fanworks.

** ''[[http://relativityfalls.tumblr.com/ Relativity Falls]]'', an age-swap fan 'verse in which young Stanley and Stanford Pines spend the summer with their "Grauntie Mabel" investigating the weird goings-on in Gravity Falls with a teenage Manly Dan and handy-woman Lita Ramirez (Soos's grandmother).

* ''Fanfic/TranscendenceAU'' is a verse that sprung up around ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls'' overnight and is currently growing exponentially. It's a bit unusual in that there's no central fic. There's a blog, and the mods of the blog are the authorities on what is or isn't canon for the verse (particularly Mod Z, or Zilleniose on Tumblr), but in general the verse's canon is pretty loose and open to contribution from anyone, which is probably one of the reasons why it's growing at the frankly astounding rate that it is. Seriously, there are several new pages of content every day.

* [[http://www.sterman.org/ Richard Lawson]] created two such {{Fan Verse}}s for ''[[RanmaOneHalf Ranma 1/2]]'' during the late 1990s:

** ''Fanfic/SuperwomenOfEva'' are two separate Fan Verses that turn basically the entire female cast of ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'' into superheroines. In the first 'verse, Misato becomes [[TheIncredibleHulk She-Hulk]], Asuka Comicbook/GhostRider, Rei the ComicBook/SilverSurfer, Ritsuko [[Franchise/SpiderMan Spider-Woman]], Maya ''all'' the Franchise/FantasticFour, Mana [[IronMan Iron Maiden]], etc., while the second 'verse has Misato joining the [[Franchise/GreenLantern Green Lantern Corps]], Asuka becoming PowerGirl, Rei [[ComicBook/WonderWoman Wonder Girl]], Ritsuko BlueBeetle, Maya ComicBook/{{Zatanna}}, Mana {{Steel}}, etc. Even some spinoff-only girls and the canonically ''dead'' mothers get into the game.
** ''Fanfic/NeonGenesisEvangelionR'' was all written by one author but it has two branching continuities and has itself spawned fan fiction (such as ''[[ColonCancer Neon Genesis Evangelion: R: Redemption]]''). It's also unusually detailed for a piece of fan fiction and elaborates substantially on the [[AncientAstronauts nature of the angels]] compared with the original series.

* ''FreedomCityPlayByPost'' is the largest online source for stories in the ''FreedomCity'' setting. Characters use the ''MutantsAndMasterminds'' rules set to make things a little more balanced than the usual collaborative free-form stories.

* ''WebOriginal/TheAethionExpandedMultiverse'' is a universe where any Franchise/{{Bionicle}} fanfic writer can put their own work in and be considered "fanon" for the universe.

* The ''Fanfic/HauntedMansionAndTheHatboxGhost'' is a fanverse created on DeviantArt by users Kelly-M-Mortal, Benthehyena and Scrooge Mac Duck. It focuses on the Haunted Mansion ride from the Disneyland parks, and includes short stories, a multi-chapters fanfic, and various illustration and one-panel comics, all set in an unique FanVerse of which the most important character is the Hatbox Ghost.

** It also comes with their own AU based on Anime/GuiltyCrown called ''Fanfic/GuiltyCrownTheLostKingdoms'' with Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica as guests and later on cameos with LightNovel/SwordArtOnline.
** Likewise, the author of YYGDM and Digimon Fusion Kai, alongside contributors (such as the author of Guilty Crown: Lost Kingdoms) has an [[Fanfic/KaniusProductionAbridged abridged series]] with the characters living in a shared universe alongside various pop culture. Fanfic/ShinnenNewYear is also set as the series finale.
