 The Box: Self-containing recursive extralogical concept that defeats most half-baked attempts to surpass it.

Essentially defined as "containing all the things"; may or may not be the highest meaningfully arguable
cosmological element. To be determined.
 Abfield: That which the schemafield does not encompass; in a vague sense, contains the objects that cannot
be reached through information patterns and set theories at all. Contains multiple schemafields, higher
ultimata, ultimata-surpassing hierarchies, and infinitely weirder things.
 Schemafield: A sort of operation-space dominant over generalization in the first place. Generalization from
Prism Gates and such is one way to try to climb it, but arbitrary portions of it are sealed off to typical set
theories and such.
 Limit of Prism Gate recursion falls somewhere up here, thanks to repeated abstraction over ultimata and their
definitions.
 Metempiric space: Extracosmological zone not part of an altarca. No extent, no meaningful properties, nada.
 Altarca: Self contained mini-Boxes holding various cosmologies different than those seen below.
 The Barrelplex: This wiki's "local" altarca, containing the structure seen below, including the Barrel and
its contents.
 Soupcount enumerates all the higher -verses past this point with various ordinals. Being rethought/reworked.
 Transcendentem: Mapped to level ω + 3. A form of higher-order nonspace holding beyond bubbles. Also forms
bubbles of its own.
 Beyond: Mapped to level ω + 2. A form of higher-order nonspace holding monocosms. Wrapped into "bubbles"
contained within larger structures.
 Monocosm: Mapped to level ω + 1. A self-contained pocket of Outside holding some quantity of large-scale -
verses.
 The Barrel: The "local" monocosm used for most of the work on the wiki, unless otherwise specified.
Contains an omniverse, two godverses, and the Outside in between them.
 The Outside: The extradimensional nonspace forming the region within the Barrel disconnected from the -
verses below.
 Godverses: These two structures "orbit" the omniverse - one houses Creator, the other Destroyer.
 Omniverse: Mapped to level ω. First lodeverse (limit archverse). Infinitely high up in the archverse chain and is
really more of a "direction" one approaches by counting... like ordinal ω.
 Archverse: Infinite group of -verses below. You can start counting them at 1 (universe) and then start going up
from there.
 Megaverse: Infinite group of multiverses and specialized multiverses, like paraverses.
 Multiverse: Large finite, or infinite, group of universes and pocket universes, plus weird specialized ones.
 Past this you probably have a good handle on the rest.

 The Box: The ultimatum of all existing and nonexistent altarcae. If you can, or can't think of something, it's in
the box.
 Metempiric space: The area between altarcae with no properties.
 Altarca: Alternate cosmological routes leading up to the box. Some don't lead up to the box at all but instead
are contained at an inaccessible barrier an infinite amount of distance away.
 The Barrelplex: The wiki's set of altarcae, however, this is an altarca itself.
 Transcendentem Continuum: Infinite set of Transcendentem-bubbles.
 Transcendentem: The sum of every beyond-bubble.
 Beyond: Contains a variable amount of omniverses and godverses. Beyond contains most altarcae, the
altarcae that aren't contained are present in their own bubbles throughout Transcendentem.
 Monocosm: The name for any standard verse hierarchy leading up to Beyond, our local monocosm contains
the omniverse, the two godverses, and beyond. This can vary, though, since there are an infinite number of
monocosms in the box. Each monocosm can have different properties, leading different types of verses to be
created within it, or even some verses not even being able to be born at all.
 Godverse: Home to Creator and Destroyer, there are two in most altarcae. The godverses don't contain any
lower verses.
 Omniverse: Contains every archverse. Omniverses are cosmology transcendent, meaning that any laws of a
smaller verse do not affect it at all. aleph null can be assigned to it.
 Ultraverse: Container of archverses, can still be contained by a larger archverse. (usually an archverse at
1,000,001+) Most ultraverses contain around 1,000,000 archverses. Ultraverses can be assigned to every
millionth natural number.
 Archverse: Placeholder name for any verses above Megaverse. Each archverse can be assigned to a natural
number.
 Megaverse: Contains many Multiverses, can have different properties leading to multiverses with different
properties, leading to different types of laws inside of these multiverses, making their cosmologies different.
 Multiverse: Every possible outcome of one universe. Each outcome is located in a different universe within a
multiverse, and some multiverses have completely new events aswell. Each multiverse created can have
different properties, leading for different type of universes to be born.
 Universe: Hyper-cosmic bubble of an indefinite size containing several hyper-intergalactic structures. Some
universes can expand, some don't. Some universes don't even have the opportunity to be born at all.
 Supercluster: Contains tens of thousands of galaxies
 Supergalaxy: End state of a supercluster when every galaxy in that supercluster has coalesced into one
 Galaxy cluster: Contains hundreds of galaxies
 Galaxy group: Contains dozens of galaxies
 Galaxy: Can contain up to 100 billion solar systems
 Solar System: Structure with at least 3 planets and 1 (possibly) habitable planet orbiting a large interstellar
mass, usually a star, can be a Black hole.

Scoot's Degrading Cosmology

It's called a Degrading Cosmology not just because it gets worse and worse over time (though it definitely does) but
because a key focus is that the higher up you go, the fewer laws apply to the sum of the lowest levels. (If that sounds
confusing, all it means is that a random universe out of the Multiverse follows more of our universe's laws than a
random universe out of the whole Box.)

It doesn't really have a "highest structure" or "upper bound" so just because a certain thing may be at the top of the
list, that doesn't mean it's a supreme unbeatable unquestionable structure, it just happens to be the largest.
(It might be useful to read this from the bottom to the top instead of top to bottom.)

Maximal Tier:
 The Box: Contains everything and ignores anything that prevents it from doing so. It is in the Box, for any
definition of "it".
 Cheesebox: Contains everything except one single cheeseburger and ignores anything that prevents it from
doing so.
 Microbox: Contains anything that is local to us on a Boxial scale and ignores anything that prevents it from
doing so.

Hypercosmological Tier:
 Deepfield: Contains everything that must inherently exist as a consequence of an object that contains
everything, and ignores all paradoxes that prevent it from doing so.
 Disfield: Contains all possible extensions and exploitations of the Antifield and ignores anything that prevents it
from doing so.
 Nonfield: Contains everything that isn't contained and ignores anything that prevents it from doing so.
 Parafields: Like n-aryfields, except instead of focusing on "is" and "isn't" it's "can be contained" and "can't be
contained".
 Antifield: Contains everything that can't be contained and ignores anything that prevents it from doing so.
 Itfield: Contains everything. It is in the Itfield, for any definition of "it".
 Ennoifield: Contains all concepts.
 Abfield: Contains everything with no information at all.
 Schemafield: Contains all information and all manipulations of information.
 Platofield: Contains all n-aryfields.
 Prismfield: Contains everything output-able by a Prism Gate.
 n-aryfields: Extensions of the Binaryfield and Trinaryfield where 'n' is the number of options. (For example,
Binaryfield is 2-aryfield, Trinaryfield is 3-aryfield.) 'n' can be any number, including infinities and post-infinities.
 Trinaryfield: Contains everything that either is a potato, isn't a potato or neither. (Potato is arbitrary.)
 Binaryfield:Contains everything that either is or isn't a potato. (Potato is arbitrary)
 Maiorverse: Contains all Selfverses.
 Selfverses: Cosmological structures that are larger than themselves and/or contain more than they themselves
contain.

Pre-Barrelplexial Tier:
 Barrelplex: Our local Altarca, and the end of the Archverse chain.
 Nonexistence: A realm beyond standard human thought where the logic we know does not apply.
 Mathverse: The Archverse that contains everything that follows the laws of mathematics.
 The Secode: The Archverse which is to the Omniverse as the Omniverse is to our universe. (Soupcount value
of ω*2.)
 Transcendentem: An Archverse made of pure Trosinium with a Soupcount value of ω+3.
 Beyond Bubble: An area of Transcendentem with low informational density. Functions as a hospitable
Archverse with a Soupcount value of ω+2.
 Beyond Singularity: An area of Transcendentem with high informational density. Functions as an
inhospitable Archverse with a Soupcount value of ω+2.
 Monocosm: The Archverse directly following Omniverse, often (though not always) containing
one Omniverse and three Godverses. (Soupcount value of ω+1.)
 Omniverse: The Archverse that contains everything that abides by basic scientific ideas such as dimensions
and quantum physics. Many civilisations struggle to go beyond this point so it is often considered to be all of
existence. (Soupcount value of ω.)
 Godverse: A specialized Omniverse created by and controlled by a Monocosmic God.
 Archverses: Each Archverse contains an infinite number of the previous Archverse. Each Archverse has one
thing which all of their universes have in common, and the Archverse after that one does not have this in
common, however it has another feature they all share, which is removed at the next level. Thus, the more
abstract a feature is, the larger its corresponding Archverse will be. (The laws of physics are very real while the
laws of mathematics are very abstract, so the Mathverse will be larger than the Megaverse.)
 Megaverse: Contains an infinite number of Multiverses which all have different laws of physics but all share the
same fundamental particles.
 Multiverse: Contains an infinite number of universes which all share the same laws of physics.
 Universe: Contains an infinite amount of 3-dimensional space and 1-dimensional time.

Sub-Physical Tier:
  Voids: Common denominators of fields and -verses. (For example, Megavoid is contained by everything within
the Megaverse.)
 Metabyte: Unit of measurement for modelling small pieces of abstract information.
 Quantum: Unit of measurement similar to Metabytes with far less detail, allowing it to model the
entire Schemafield.
 Sergeconcept: The most basic and fundamental concepts in existence, more complex concepts are collections
of Sergeconcepts.
 Nihil: Complete lack of anything according to a particular definition of 'everything'. (Such as, for example, "all
tangible things", "all information" or "all concepts".)
 Sergeconnection: Collections of Sergepoints that connect Non-Concepts together to make concepts.
 Non-Concepts: Loose collections of Sergepoints.
 Sergepoint: The Most basic unit in all existence and nonexistence. It can be broken down into Sergepoints, for
any definition of "it".
 Nothing:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

ThisWriter's Cosmology
It pretends to contain the not so humble properties of being coherent with what we intuit, believe, feel and seem to
observe about our reality as well as to be able to include any and all fantasy at the same time while being able to
relate them to each other and maintain a measure of coherence. In other words, it tries to point out the obvious using
made up and important looking words.

Basic or Top Level concepts or elements, also known as ThisWriter's Top Cosmology

 Omniumverse - The set of our real cosmology plus all of the fantasy
 Realium - Our own reality and whatever cosmology it is part of (could be just our single universe)
 Imaginarium - All of fantasy including all invented cosmologies and such (like those listed on this page)
 Great Barrier - The border between reality and fantasy

 Dimension
one of a group of properties whose number is necessary and sufficient to
determine uniquely each element of a system of usually mathematical
entities (such as an aggregate of points in real or abstract space) [Merriam-
Webster]

The official scientific definition of a Dimension is an axis of movement, such

as height, length, and width. [VS Battles Wiki]
Do not limit your understanding of the word Dimension to just space and time.

Dimension is a fundamental property (quantity or quality) that distinguishes one system from another. It is
not the same as number of dimension or dimensional values.

 Number of dimension is how many of those fundamental properties that it can be described with
 Dimensional values are the values of the properties.
In daily lives, we just say it to mean an aspect of a situation. There are different kinds of dimensions:

 Mathematical dimension is a quantifiable extent. Numbers can be used to describe it, such as coordinates
and axes e.g. (x, y, z) for 3 dimensions.
 Physical dimension is the model that describes our reality specifically e.g. 4-dimensional space-time
 Spatial dimension: usually with 2 possible directions
 Temporal dimension: usually with 1 possible direction
 Non-physical dimension is any other model that does not describe our reality or purely mathematical.
 Non-mathematical dimension are not quantified or represented by numbers e.g. True/False, Infinity,
Banana
By itself, no dimension is "larger" or "later" than another. Length does not come before height, nor does it
come before time. I could just as easily say time is the "4th dimension". The question "what is the fourth
dimension" does not make sense.

However, fictional contexts can rank dimensions differently. In certain Multiverse models, not all Universes
have the same dimensions. The dimension that describes the most Universes are considered to be "biggest"
(can imagine it as the largest container).

Universe
The physical Universe is defined as all of space and time (collectively
referred to as spacetime) and their contents. [Wikipedia]
While our physical Universe is 4-dimensional space-time, an alternate universe can be of any dimension;
physical, mathematical, non-mathematical etc. By convention, Universe is understood as 4-dimensional
unless otherwise specified.

 A regular Universe is a 4-dimensional construct.

 A "pocket" Universe is a 1 to 3 dimensional construct.
 The idea of Alternate Universe is counter-intuitive if "Universe" is defined to be "everything" there is? Why
don't we consider all of them to be part of a Universe just like everything else? With the introduction of the
concept of dimensions as the fundamental distinguishing properties, Universes can be separated in a few
ways:

 Type 1 - Universes of different dimensional values. While existing in the same continuum, say 4-
dimensional spacetime of (x,y,z,t), two different "Universe" simply exists in different portions.
 Type 2 - Universes of different dimensions. (x,y,z) has a different dimension from (x,y,t)
 Type 3 - Universe of different numbers of dimensions. (x,y,z) has a different number of dimension from
(x,y,z,t)
Many confuses Alternate Universe with Alternate Dimension. Alternate Dimension is just one type, Type 2,
of the different types of Alternate Universe.

Parallel Universe or Parallel Dimension is slightly less definitive. It implies that one Universe, despite
being different, has some similar properties that makes them "related" or parallel.

 There is no way for Type 1 Universes to be parallel since they are only distinguished by dimensional values.
Having the same dimensional values will result in just one Universe identified.
 Type 2 and Type 3 Universes can be considered parallel if one or more of their dimensional values is the
same. For example, two Universes that occupy the same spatial location (x,y,z) but a different temporal
location t.

Multiverse
The multiverse (or meta-universe) is the hypothetical set of possible
universes, including the universe in which we live. [Wikipedia]

A multiverse is a self-contained group, or larger bubble filled with a finite

or infinite number of universes. [Verse and Dimensions Wiki]
There are four types of separation from the introduction of the concept of Dimension that gives birth to four
models of Multiverse. To adapt Max Tegmark's "Four Levels of Multiverse" to apply to even fiction:

 Level 0: An extension of our observable universe. Since observable universe is not a universe, this is more
of a model for a Universe than Multiverse.
 Level 1: Bubble universes. Portion of the same continuum with slightly different laws of physics and
physical constants (which traditionally are known to be "Universal"). Since all universes exists on the same
dimensions, it does not involve extra dimensions.
 Level 2: Many Worlds Interpretation. While the Quantum Mechanics version describe a worldline split
based on random quantum events, fiction often adapts it to split based on choices of sentient decision-
makers. Universes are different "lines" on the same plane, hence it involves one extra dimension.
 Level 3: Extra-dimensions. Superstring theory, for one, proposes that our 3-dimensional Universe are part
of a larger Multiverse with 10 spacial dimensions and 1 temporal dimensions. Universes are of different
dimensions altogether, hence it requires multiple extra dimensions.
 Level 4: A combination of multiple different models of the Multiverse to form a Multi-Multiverse.
Multiverse can mean either just any construct with more than one Universe, or strictly a ordered collection of
Universes. The latter is usually used in more developed models, while the former will be introduced later
as Archverse.

A Multiverse is a 5-dimensional construct.

Megaverse
Multiverse, or megaverse, any hypothetical set of multiple universes
described in physical cosmology and other disciplines. [Wikipedia]

A Megaverse is a collection of several different Multiverses, either a finite

or infinite amount of them [Verse and Dimensions Wiki]
Before we had the word Megaverse, we first knew about the possibility of a Multi-Multiverse. We all know
that Megaverse is "a collection of Multiverses", but that's a little too vague for any pragmatic uses.
Fortunately for us, the prefix Mega- does not only mean "very large", but also denotes a factor of 10^6. We
can take advantage of this coincidence and just understand it as a six-dimensional construct.

A Megaverse is a 6 to 8 dimensional constuct.

Gigaverse, Teraverse, Petaverse...

A less-known term than Multiverse and Megaverse but one that is quickly gaining recognition. Members of
pop culture took it one step further and named "the collection of Megaverses" as Gigaverse. Giga- denotes
the factor of 10^9. Hence, Megaverse covers up to 8 dimensions. Since the next multiple Tera- denotes the
factor of 10^12, a Gigaverse is a 9 to 11 dimensional construct. Conveniently, the separation between
each prefix is 3, which is the number of dimensions we are accustomed to. This enable us to visualise say, all
3 dimensions of Megaverse as 6D point, 7D line and 8D plane in a 9D Gigaverse space. This makes this
system of definitions a very powerful tool.

Hence, instead of backward-defining the multiverse to be 5 to 11 dimensional based on Superstring Theory,

we can say that the real world is a Gigaverse according to Superstring Theory. A Teraverse would be a
12 to 14 dimensional construct, and so on.

Archverse
An Archverse is a cosmological structure that is defined to be a large set of
verses that are composed of Universes. Simply put, they are finite or infinite
sets of smaller archverses. [Verse and Dimensions Wiki]
You might realise that as the list continues, we may eventually run out of words to describe constructs of
higher dimensions. This is why we need an umbrella term called Archverse. Multiverse, Megaverse,
Teraverse are all examples of an Archverse. Multiverse is a 1st-degree Archverse, Megaverse is a 2nd-
degree Archverse and so on. In this way, we can easily identify a construct of say, 100-dimensional, to be
32nd-degree Archverse (do the math).
Macroverse
A Macroverse is a verse of any type which is particularly large when
compared with the normal size of verses of the same type. [Verse and
Dimensions Wiki]
There is pretty little lore behind the word Macroverse. If we use this definition, Macro-Megaverse would
probably refer to 6-dimensional Megaverse, and a "Micro-Megaverse" would refer to 8-dimensional
Megaverse.

Macrocosm and microcosm refers to a vision of cosmos where the part

(microcosm) reflects the whole (macrocosm) and vice versa. [Wikipedia]

Any large organized system considered as a whole, rather than as a group of

smaller systems [Cambridge Dictionary]
About the only similar concept would be Macrocosm, which also refers to the idea of similar structures in
different sizes.

Hyperverse
"Hyperverse" in this case comes from two words: "Hyper", which is used in
mathematics to designate higher-dimensional space, and something
extreme, above or beyond the usual level. As well as "verse" as a short for
"universe". So it is intended as a description of a superior higher-
dimensional existence, beyond conventional reality. [VS Battles Wiki]

Hyper a prefix appearing in loanwords from Greek, where it meant “over”

usually implying excess or exaggeration (hyperbole). Hyperverse means
Oververse which can be translated to "Over Universe" or "Hyper
Universe" [All dimensions Wiki]
So and so character is Hyperversal! But what does this mean?

Hyper- does not really mean something above and beyond, but just a more exaggerated prefix for Super-. It
means the extreme. Hence, Hyperverse usually means a construct of infinite dimensions. Whether is it
considered an Infinite-degree Archverse is up for debate, but frankly that fact has little use.

Outerverse / Reality
Outerverse is a term coined within this wiki to refer to any reality that
transcends all concepts of dimensions. [VS Battles Wiki]

It is infinite-dimensional, and has no dimensions. [All dimensions Wiki]

Outerverse is the assumption of something that dimensions cannot describe. Since dimension is defined as
the most fundamental level of separation, the Outerverse is by definition the largest thing in any fictional
context. In other words, it is the fictional context itself. A fictional context is basically like all of Marvel or
all of DC.

Reality is the sum or aggregate of all that is real or existent, as opposed to

that which is merely imaginary.
Fictional context is a term from the perspective of readers. From the perspective of fictional characters, the
synonym is Reality. Reality is usually used descriptively rather than objectively. Meaning real things are part
of reality, but what do we mean when we say a Reality, or that Reality?

Just like how they are not real to us, readers are not real to fictional characters, neither are characters from
another publication, or characters from comic books inside of comic books. Even if a character appears to
break the fourth wall and addresses the reader directly, it doesn't make you any more real to them. There is
still no way of interaction or perception on either side. They merely acknowledged your existence, not
your reality. The difference between reality and existence will be elaborated.

Whenever there is a crossover, either the crossover is considered a separate Reality from the participating
worlds, or everything is considered as one Reality. Outerverse is all of a fictional context or
Reality. Hence when you hear someone says "Marvel Omniverse", it really just means Marvel Outerverse.

Metaverse
The Metaverse is a collective virtual shared space, created by the
convergence of virtually enhanced physical reality and physically persistent
virtual space, including the sum of all virtual worlds, augmented reality,
and the internet. [Wikipedia]

The Metaverse is a virtual-reality space in which users can interact with a

computer-generated environment and other users. [Verse and Dimensions
Wiki]
Many times Metaverse is often associated with the cyberspace, like the cyber equivalent of Megaverse, but
this is simply a waste of the word's potential. Meta- means "beyond" and in fiction, being "Meta" or "Meta-
fictional" is associated with breaking the fourth wall or transcending into reality. Yes, Metaverse refers to
what includes our reality. No fictional character can reach this level, not even those who supposedly "killed
my own writer".

Omniverse / Existence
Omniverse, a concept in western superhero comicbooks of an all-
encompassing reality that every real and fictional universe is a part
of [Wikipedia]
<So and so> is Omniversal!

Omniverse is basically the new Universe. Everything that there is, it is the Omniverse. If we are just
comicbook characters, then the Omniverse contains even "that reality". Omni- means all, and defining it
otherwise to have something even larger would just leave it underappreciated. It is also a term perfectly
useless in any discussion.

Existence is the ability to, directly or indirectly, interact with reality or, in
more specific cases, the universe. [Wikipedia]
The lament term for Omniverse would be Existence. Existence is not a predicate, hence you literally cannot
have anything that doesn't exist. (Existence comes first!) Any effort to describe something that is supposedly
"beyond existence" is just over-complicating things for no pragmatic use.
