(Trait)

Disconnected
Summary::You are disconnected from the rest of the universe, stuck in your own petty insignificant world.

Benefit:

Drawback: You may not leave your world, with all methods failing. You may feel an unnatural dislike of certain creatures without knowing why, even to the point of killing. Against those creatures you feel the unnatural dislike towards, you will forget they ever existed. Foreign substances have no value to you, even if they would have value if they were created in your world.

Special:

Roleplaying Ideas: As a player character, you should never take this trait. It is made for non-player characters. The only exception is when you have left your character at home or your character just died permanently. As long as the other player characters are staying on that world, you could play a character with this trait, but when the rest of the player characters leave the world, this equates to death for your character, and you will have to play a new one.

World Barrier
Is is possible for creatures to travel from world to world, but the worlds naturally resist. They have a soul of their own that pervades most creatures and the environment. And this soul has dispositions against foreign and non-natural effects against it, along with a disposition towards the core ideals of the world. Ultimately, this leads to the world treating each creature specially.

Mechanically, this is done via an "Ideal" score. Positive ideal scores lead to benefits in the world. Negative ideal scores lead to penalties. Each world has its own ideal score per creature.

(mythos, astronomy, ect.)

The worlds are constantly traveling, traversing from one side of the universe containing a white hole to the other side, containing a black hole. Anything that goes into the black hole is spit out into the white hole. It takes 10 millennium to make this journey. Since every world travels at the same rate, the only observational difference of the sky is due to rotations.

During the last millennium of the journey, the world forms a protective barrier around it, not allowing any interplanetary travel to it at all. During this time, all knowledge of interplanetary travel is lost, due to people dying, general amnesia, and books being buried. After this period of time, the world falls through the black hole only to emerge through the white hole. At this point in time, the protective barrier is extremely erratic. Within a week, it completely breaks down, leading to a meteor shower of Gummy Blocks and the reopening of interplanetary travel.
