Dazed, confused, but chugging on.
Lore thread for MPB.
How are worlds created?
Like galaxies form in outer space, worlds slowly push themselves together when stray magic collapses and collect debris from the creation of preexisting worlds. The space between universes is simply known as the Backyard, and its inhabitants must alert the preexisting universes when a new one is formed. One of the MPB's other tasks is to travel to these worlds and connect them to the network.
Beings outside the multiverse
Not everything has a set home in the multiverse. Sometimes, when new worlds shape themselves insidethe Backyard, new creatures form out of the leftovers. Some are benevolent and even help put new worlds together, others are more malicious, and the latter type likes to group up and cause problems in the multiverse. Sometimes they're even able to persuade more villainous beings already in a universe to help.
Good teams and...not-so-good teams
Although the RP primarily focuses on one team, there are plenty more existing both within and outside the organization. When these teams come together during a crisis, it can quickly turn into competition, friendly or not.
On the flipside, some teams don't mind chaos in the multiverse-in fact, they might be causing it! Like the malicious outside beings, these groups will travel around the multiverse for the sole purpose of wreaking havoc. Teams of the MPB are meant to have any members of the bad teams locked up in headquarters, then shipped off to their own universes to have authorities deal with them there.
Team recruitment
The MPB is always accepting new members, but it's not as easy as signing up for a team and receiving the equipment. First, the desired team must be chosen and summoned, then the newbie is escorted to an obstacle course where their stamina, speed, agility, physical prowess, and wit is tested. The members of the desired team may either help or harm, providing aid or being an obstacle. If they fail, the would-be must wait a minimum of six hours to try again. If they pass, they are officially recognized as a rookie member of the team, but as they are shown the ropes they are usually limited to Nuisance or Threat missions.
Team equipment
Typically, the MPB's teams are told to bring whatever they can carry, but they do get supplies on top of that.have
-A swiss army knife, in case the member's weapon is lost, or something needs to be cut.
-A flashlight, in case the universe or an area within it is dark.
-Walkie talkies, if the members need to communicate with each other from far away or in a loud environment.
-A magnifying glass, which comes in handy when searching for something small.
-The most important item is the Portal-ble, a small handheld device which has four main buttons: one that creates a portal to the headquarters, one that creates a portal to the user's home universe (It's required to tell it your home universe when you first receive it), the previous universe the user traveled to (useful if the user forgot something), and the nearest universe. It doesn't have as much power as the headquarter's computer, and cannot take the user as far.
Lapatido
One of the oldest Backyard beings, and one of the cruelest. Lapatido loves attention, especially from "smaller beings". His goal is to become a deity among them, whatever it takes...
