* ArtisticLicensePhysics: And how! The attempts to rationalize some of the more bizarre technologies in the MV usually don't even come close to sensible, and usually just rely on AppliedPhlebotinum and TechnoBabble. This makes it slightly ridiculous when writers adherent to the superiority of science try to make magic out to be nonsensical.

* ACommanderIsYou: Certain writers take ''a lot'' of effort making their individual space empires unique from eachother. This is somewhat necessary, as without a coherent identity, empires with multiple writers would be all over the place.

* AGodAmI: The primary motivator for many characters. In addition, it's perfectly acceptable to play as any sort of deity. Usually this leads to a lot of foolishness, but if played with restraint, a god can add a lot to a story. Also occasionally played for laughs in the OOC chat.
* AllYourBaseAreBelongToUs: Some writers play the MV like it's a ''VideoGame/CommandAndConquer game''. It gets messy.

* AnotherDimension: Zig zagged. Hypothetically, the Multiverse is a combination of all possible realities into a single universe. At the same time, there are also definitely separate layers of the MV, such as Hell, The Æther, and the Giggungagap.

Trope misuse, judging by the explanation required, the title does not reveal the entirety of the plot in its name.


''The Multiverse'' is a massively multiplayer play-by-post roleplaying game that is featured on Roleplaygateway.com. It consistently holds the title for the largest game on the site, at least in regards to character and player count. It is basically WhatItSaysOnTheTin.

* {{Magitech}}: Growing in prevalence within the MV, [=VARIATech=] was one of the first IC corporations to experiment with this. The Aschen Empire is adapting more of it into their arsenal as they go head to head with more magic users.

* EarthIsTheCenterOfTheUniverse: Well, Terra is anyway, and while Terra is explicitly said not to be Earth, it may as well be. Regardless, roughly %70 of the MV's action happens here.

The MV has no singular plot or goal (though attempts have been made), so the entire game is character driven. There are, however, several larger ongoing stories that span almost every genre imaginable. It would be impractical to try and encompass a summary of the MV's content here, so it's probably better if you look for yourself. On that note, since everything can (and probably has) happened in ''The Multiverse'', it would be shorter to list the Tropes that ''don't'' apply to it. The list here applies specifically to the game's largest driving themes and elements. Only characters who have had a verifiably large impact on the game should be mentioned here; otherwise, feel free to make a heading for them on the Characters/TheMultiverse page.

* CrowningMomentOfAwesome: Most storylines have at least one, and ideally this is what all writers are striving for, whether they're competitive or not. Some can be more awesome than others, depending on the depth or scope of the story.



* NightmareFuel: Sometimes when writers make an attempt at writing terribly upsetting things in can take on a bit of Narm, but sometimes writers are also capable of being truly horrifying.
* * The MV also has quite an abundance of FridgeHorror, when you consider things like collateral damage and casualties from everything that happens.
