The Game

The Game - is the name of the certain activity invented by Supervisors.

Story
Several millions years after existing, many Supervisors were outright bored with their duties to simply observe multiple universe. They wanted actually to participate somehow in the processes going on in the worlds, but rules forbade them to do so. Eventually they invented a little game. One of the Supervisors choose certain being or group of beings in one of the dimensions, assigning him / her / them as his "hero(es)". Another Supervisor then invented challenges for the "hero" in form of villains and various obstacles. "Hero" had to pass them, relying on his own strength. Supervisor who is on the "hero"'s side, could provide some help, like arranging favorable circumstances to him. Second Supervisor is to counter efforts of his rival and to create more obstacles for the "hero" and provide favorable chances for his enemies. After one round, Supervisors exchange roles.

It is said, that nowadays during their meetings, Supervisors are bragging about Games and their results. They also compete who can create more bizzare or unique Games. More often then not, those who participate in the Games are not aware about manipulations. When they somehow gain awareness of the fact, that many important events in their lives, were arranged by two powerfull beings for their own amusement, they usually getting depressed or reacting with fiery anger. Many of the former Game heroes, dedicated their lives to bring down Supervisors or at least just spoil their Games. But more often then not, their efforts become just another element of the Games.

It should be noted, that during Games "hero" has freedom of choice. And Supervisors do not have complete control over environment. Sometimes they just create "hero" and "villains" and leave them on their own devices. During Games "hero" can stop fighting or find some unpredictable way to solve the problem. "Hero" can even "break the Game" with his decisions, which, depending on Supervisor's personality, could be taken as very amusing or higly irritating. Sometimes, Games go out of control. In those cases Supervisors retire from influencing them and remain just as observers.

Overseers do not approve of the Games. At least officially. Some of them sometimes oberve Games as a way to gather more information about beings living in the Multiverse. Also, since they can not influence physical realities without disastrous consequnces, realistically they can do very little to stop Games from occuring.

Behind the scenes
Concept of the game was created in 2006. In subsequent years this idea was elaborated and expanded.
