 The Universe created in Cracked Earth is the result of the setting in the Sliders universe. Quinn Mallory, with the aid of Professor Maximillian P. Arturo, created a device that would allow them to "slide" between alternate universes. However, the device didn't work and, instead, created permanent cracks between dimensions. This left one stable area on the planet, protected as if by a giant invisible bubble. Ever since, people have fallen through the cracks of their own dimensions and universes and woken up inside the bubble, which is on an endless journey from one dimension to the next. Luckily, over time, this protected area became a thriving economic center. Your character, along with the rest of the cast, has been brought into this safe area. They live in an enclosed town, with housing, shops, restaurants, entertainment and other assorted necessities for day-to-day life. Outside this bubble, Earth's dominant dimension changes on its own. One day, characters might leave the bubble to find it exists within a dimension where a species of aliens has taken over the world. Another they might discover that they're surrounded by a dimension where the American Civil War never occurred. This is a panfandom, group story examining how characters from various worlds deal with life inside the bubble. And, more importantly, how they react, change and adapt to the different dimensions they'll be subject to if they leave the safety of their safe haven. places || current world || past worlds || players (locked) |

You might've been sleeping, walking to work, eating, showering, or in a battle for your life when you suddenly find yourself in front of a sign with nothing but what you had with you at the time of your departure. There is a table at the base of the sign, a radio, key, a map to the city and mobile device sit there waiting. Static suddenly breaks through the silence, and a voice crackles through the radio speakers. |

"The real world is where the monsters are." For as long as anyone can remember, San Luis Obispo has been a place of beauty; a place for tourists to stop by on their way to the larger cities along the California coast, a place for people to come wanting a quiet week away, a good stopping point for those headed to the national park. And yet this pretty, quiet county just happens to be sitting on a Hellmouth. A Hellmouth which, up until 2002, was mostly dormant. You see, it wasn't named after a Saint for no reason. When the Spanish explorer sailed into the harbour, in the late 1700s, he had no idea what he was getting himself or his men into. He couldn't understand why the neighbouring Chumash tribes weren't making use of the deep, protective harbour which had granted his ships safe passage and provided them with shelter from the storms and swells of the Pacific Ocean. Why weren't they fishing in these waters? Why did they stay in the confines of the glaciers and forest? The answer was simple, and it came to Francisco, their captain, exactly three days later, when he awoke to discover seven blood soaked bodies lying neatly at the edge of his camp. Another three days passed and he awoke to find the same thing. Except this time, the bodies were drained of blood. Three days later, while scouting in the forest, he came face to face with his friend Pere. No big deal you might think, only he'd buried Pere himself two nights prior. It was then that Francisco began to realise what he was dealing with. Not the tribes, as he'd first thought, but demons. No one knows exactly what happened in the weeks following. Francisco never spoke about it, and neither have the Chumash people. But if you were there you'd know that blood was spilled, sacrifices were made and at some point, the Hellmouth temporarily closed. Without its pull the demons retreated back into the darkness and left the little harbour town alone. San Luis Obispo was born, the church was erected for safe-keeping, Francisco went back to Spain, and the centuries slowly passed until the city's bloody history was completely forgotten. |
