Universe #17 - Beware the Ides of April, for as the senate meets Decimus Hardus and Alphus Longinus clash once more, betwixt them Decimus' daughter Genviva Synerian. The delicate and emotional flower of Rome has captured the heart of brave General Alphus, however the oracles of the Ministratum Sphinxiae have warned of ill omens after the mad seer Shamanus committed his evils on the gates of Pluto. their only hope may be to aline with the barbaric Detonouccia and her tribe...but will it be enough?

Universe #18: In the far future Emperor Andonius, mortally wounded from the use of his powers, sits half merged to his throne of gold not dead and yet not alive. Throughout the galaxy his crumbling empire is held together by the efforts of his elite paratroopers, each legion following the teachings of one the First Wave, beings of great power whose loyalty to him forged his domain. Supported by the technocult of The Brainbox shipping forth its advanced technology from the planet Metis, His Empire is besieged on all sides and from within, its collapse staved off only by its enemies hatred of each other preventing them from working together. Issuing forth from the dread planet Hokkaido within the Nimue maelstrom the forces of the seven traitor lords and their fleets harry the brave Imperial defenders while Sphinx cults practising dark witchcraft gnaw at their loyalty from within. Mysterious Atlanteans, claiming to be the true lords of the galaxy, strike unseen from the depths of interstellar space while vicious evolutionists gather to them in the wild places on untended planets those who believe man can only be advanced through barbarism and conflict.

Universe #20: In the far future, trade between the four systems of note is controlled by 7 great trading houses each supported by the use of an artifact plundered from the asteroid "Hokkaido".
The peoples of the planet WV Primus, primarily interested in trade and profit, are ruled by the philandering President Alpha and his cabinet, perhaps the most influential of whome is his Guardian of Off World Affairs. Though not the most advanced, nor the most harmonious, the Primates make up for it by being the most prolific.
Meanwhile the indigenous people of the green world Verdant are oppressed by the dominion of The House of Wyman. Their normally cheerful and outgoing race made more grim and determined by the separation from home and the toil of their kin.
The machiavellian Sphinxes weave shadow and conspiracy to fool their contemporaries into poor deals. Their vast stores of knowledge giving them an edge over the more hasty Primates and Verdants.
Aloof and mysterious the Atlanteans shun contact with the other peoples believing them to be young, disrespectful and ignorant.
This fine balance however is sure to end, there are rumours of the strange paradigm energy of the artifacts warping the bodies of those of the trading houses, conferring strange and terrible powers, a mysterious new force with its own ships harrys the edges of the great systems calling itself The Unity Of Nations and The Corporate Council works feverishly to unlock the secrets of the houses artifacts so that it might break their stranglehold on trade and profit enormously!

Sounds eerily familiar... as if this universe was one I've tread before. I do like the comparison between the U.N and the Sol Unity "Hello - my name is Dr. Xander Goosens. Take me to your leader."

Universe #21. All parahumans are actually bonded to a spirit from the world of the dead who has learned a particular strenght and it's the spirits that give them their power.

Shaman would point out that (apart from the dead part) we are already in Universe #21.

True, however the Parahumans don't get their powers from spirits as far as I know. The powers are their own.

Yes, but Shaman believes a lot of things that aren't true

Universe 22: At Ms. Andersons Elementary Lil'Alpha and his special mega awesome super friends endure the trials and tribulations of the average school child...admittedly the fact Lil'Diehard has taken over the slides and the jungle gym is sentient and encroaching on the sand box...but that's all average, at least at this school.

Universe #23 "Para. Human. Atlantean. Long ago, the three peoples lived together in harmony. Then, everything changed when the Atlanteans attacked. Only the Pharoah, master of all elements, could stop them, but when the world needed him most, he vanished. A hundred years passed and my friends and I in the Ministry of Sphinxes discovered a new Pharoah, a mummy named Menhet. And although his para abilities are great, he has a lot to learn before he's ready to save anyone. But I believe Menhet can save the world."

That's ... a lot more optimistic than the universe we're actually living in IC.

Think I kinda love universe 5 and 22
Universe #24 The digital universe the world inside the matrix, sprites and emoticons form a society. Only the bravest are allowed travel the info highways and log on as avatars. Traditionally the great heroes Vince and Dianna have stood as the protectors of this realm but when the viruses attack and spam-wear threatens to corrupt the central mainframe the profit Uplink is nowhere to be seen, one brave little watermelon sprite steps up and proves you don't need finely rendered graphics to be a hero.
Universe #25 everyone is a anthropomorphic animal Alpha's a eagle, Brainbox is a chimp, Iason is a bat, DieHard is a cockroach, The Guard is a doberman, and Catnip and RedClaw are these weirdo ducks that have cat and wolf powers respectively. Eddy gets to be a seal

A doberman? I would have pegged The Guard as a wolfhound.
