The Butterfly Effect: A chaos theory that small events can have enormous consequences.
There are NPCs in the game. They are affected by every effect you cast, and potentially everything you do.
What you thought was only a whisper, might have been overheard. Did it plant a good idea or bad idea?
Feel free to use these as ideas to incorporate into your rp.
Don't like one of these, change it. Run an idea by staff with how you plan to do that.
Current Effects
Players may attempt to ICly change any of these laws. Some will be easy to change, others will be harder as they affect many other things. Submit a +request to Staff if you'd like to attempt to make a change.

Every connection between RealSpace and Webspace was shattered by a gargantuan wave of pure White. When things came back online, dozens were dead, hundreds were dazed, crazy or catatonic, and decades of formatting had been undone or corrupted. In the mortal world, screens went blank, networks froze and data disappeared. In the deeper, more magickal levels of the Web, the damage was far more severe." - Digital Web 2.0 | ||
