Dimensions all across various universes have started to attract each other and pull themselves together like magnets to create a dimension that houses every character from different universes, where they'll eventually meet and interact with each others. Some of these may be familiar faces, old foes, complete strangers, loved ones, heroes, villains, etc.

There's no way of going back to your separate universes..... at least that's what Miguel O'Hara (Spider-Man) 2099 thinks..... maybe he could be wrong and believes there's a possibility to send all of you home, but for now- Shattered Dimensions is your home, but don't fret! There are over many universes that have joined the Mega Universe (yes, he calls it that), meaning you may find shelter across both familiar and unfamiliar locations!

Below is a list of some universes that have been pulled together:
✅Cyberpunk 2077
✅Marvel
✅DC
✅Power Rangers
✅Star Wars
✅Tokusatsu
✅Kingdom Hearts
✅Final Fantasy
✅Pokémon
✅Minecraft
✅Mario
✅Sonic
✅HH/HB (Hazbin Hotel/Helluva Boss)
✅Zelda
✅Megaman
✅Cookie Run
✅Anime worlds
✅Backrooms
✅Original worlds
—————————————————
More universes keep being strung into the Mega Universe database, but aren't yet confirmed. However- we do know more universes exist within this huge dimension, waiting to be discovered and/or inhabited by you!

Come join us where you're free to shape and weave the destinies and fates of your characters, control their every action, interact with other characters, can be part of immersive and immense storytelling, and more!

- Narrative-based rolling system with no stats
- Desert setting inspired by the Colorado Desert

— Battle Cats Online!
A Warrior Cats hub server.
✧ est. Feb 2026 ✧

⁀➷ Our Mission Statement...
To provide a stable, welcoming environment for Warriors roleplayers of all ages, writing styles, and experience levels where members can enjoy their shared hobby and find the servers or partners right for them.

⁀➷ We Offer...
✧ Partnerships! — An advertising platform for all types of Warriors adjacent roleplay servers.

✧ Inclusivity! — Diligent staff who take maintaining a safe, peaceful space for people of all sorts very seriously.

It’s a new dawn in Torrence, a new day. And with this new day, comes new challenges. New faces. New enemies.

Synopsis
It’s been some time since Shroud and the Red Ring launched their assault on the city, the Z-Team of the SDN were able to contain the situation and prove themselves as more than villains pretending to be heroes. Robert Robertson III, aka Mechaman working as a dispatcher for the SDN, fought Shroud and won. Proving his heroism once again by sparing the life of the vengeful villain.

Since his arrest, the Red Ring has gone through some changes. A power vacuum has hit the scene, with up and coming villains and scoundrels vying for power. But, with the newly supportive public image of the SDN’s Phoenix Program, specifically the Z-Team composed of former now reformed villains, the SDN has been able to slowly expand their program.

With the growing escalations on the streets, events might be brewing for a new conflict that could spread all over Torrence once more. Will you try to help put out these flames, or fan them?


In game timeline:
Robert did not romance either Blonde Blazer or Invisigal. HR was not needed in this matter.
Shroud was not killed, instead apprehended.
Kept Coupé, let Sonar go from the team.
Forgave Sonar in the final act, allowed him back onto the team amicably.

Canons up for the taking all around
OCs are actively encouraged

✷ We are an 18+ multi-fandom roleplay community aiming to deliver immersive narrative experiences without all of the bloat.

╭═════════❖═════════╮

At the turn of the century on the year 2300, our universe was visited by something. Something we never saw coming. A mysterious force swept across the milky way, spinning seeds of change. This caused our universe to collapse, converging with those parallel in the multiverse. In it’s infinite branches, dwindled to one. An event now known as “The Final Crucible”. Many believe it’s punishment for the lives we’ve lived. Our own personal crucibles to go through. And then there are those who believe it’s a second chance. Being thrust into a world where all manner of diverse minds and cultures suddenly exist together.
For the past 6 months, world leaders have argued and established a political presence in the world, trying to get to the bottom of the convergence and why it’s happened. New fantastical, and even terrifying discoveries where many folklore and legends are actually real, and sometimes……the boogeyman really is under your bed…..

╭═════════❖═════════╮

✷ ✷ Both Canon and OC opportunities from various movies, tv shows, and even some video games.

✷ ✷ Massive open world/universe, with iconic locations created to provide an immersive roleplay experience. Some sources currently include Assassins Creed, Halloween, Dead Space, Evil Dead, Supernatural, Friday the 13th, and even DOOM! From our world, and even into the vastness of space!

✷ - Community driven plots, where staff won’t try to force their narratives, but instead work with everyone equally. We aim for consistency, not chaos.

✷ - Professional and very mature staff team, all of which ran by people who are equally passionate in order to create a safe place for everyone to exist and have fun.

Hello! I'm doing an interest check for those interested in a Warrior Cats RP centered on the existing clans in the original series!

I know there's a lot written here so...

TLDR;
Are you a fan of Warriors Cats? Would you like to join a laid-back group where you can rp, have fun, and reminisce on the nostalgia of the first series? Join Rise of the Clans, an rp set in the old territories in a world where the story of the books hasn't happened. Here we are writing our own cast of cats and traveling down our own path.

Windclan struggles to pick itself up after a devastating attack from Thunderclan. It's been half a moon since that fearful night, and the gathering is getting closer. Will Windclan be able to find allies and get revenge for the lives taken by Thunderclan? Or will Talonstar, the leader of Thunderclan, finish what he started? Join us and find out!

-------------------------------------------------

This roleplay centers around Windclan and does NOT follow the timelines of the books. While the layout of the clans is similar to that of the first series, I want to try to create original plotlines here (as original as one can be with a secret medicine cat lover-centered plotline that is).

I want to make this roleplay easy for newcomers to understand and to be able to hop in and have fun, but I also want to reassure everyone that you can join with no prior knowledge. If you just wish to roleplay and have fun, you can play a minor character.

While we are centering this rp around Windclan, everyone is allowed to make cats in different clans and rp then, but we will rarely need those characters unless it's for a plot point.
---------------------------------------------------

If you are interested or want to learn more, please come check it out!!

The setting:
- Urban/modern fantasy, a secluded-ish area of modern small-town Scandinavia. Folklore heavy, roughly 10:1 mundane:supernatural population. Charming and thoughtfully built by many hands. Ever evolving.
- Lots of creative freedom. More about that in our rules.

Our expectations:
- SFW/non-sex server with many adult themes otherwise.
- Age: 21+ for maturity and the ability to nuance both IC and OOC.
- ISO tightknit COMMUNITY of members who are here for the right reasons and interact well with others:
- - Not low-key lurking for romance or waiting for the hot characters. Be honest with yourself about this.
- - Excited to step out and interact - not wait for others to come to you.
- - Are not possessive of other players or engage in clique, cultish, or high school table dynamics.
- - Responding appropriately to partner posts. Yes-and, and no-but.
- - No Main Characters™. We help feed into each others' plots and take turns in the spotlight.

The server:
- ISO literate writers and thoughtfully-created characters.
- Newbies welcome. Pretentious behavior not.
- Always looking for new people to get involved with AND pull into our plots. We take turns doing the cool stuff and are actively looking for ways to push each other into the spotlight for their moments!

Not only seamlessly combining 5e and OneDnD content, but adding popular Eberron 3rd party content including Exploring Eberron and other Keith Baker products to our player options. All while DMs bounce ideas and look into popular 3rd party sources like Duran's Guide to the Blood of Vol and the Giant's Guide to Xen'drik for even more stories to unfold!

We have Sharn as our main hub, so even when you're not engaging into quests you can roleplay with a vast community and bring your own stories into the mix. With special encounters avaliable so you can fight crime in the streets of Callestan or help patrol King's Forest against the nerfarious Jungle Boys! We're also actively seeking special events as the Eberron we've expanded on together continues to flourish. Including the implementation of holiday events providing special challenges and opportunities.

Welcome to Steven Universe: Prismatic Visions!

What were to happen if Pink never shattered herself? What were to happen if she was just as firm as the other Diamonds and wanted Earth to be colonized like any other planet?

There's much to explore in this AU, so come take a walk with us as it pans out!

The sea is cold. The fog never lifts. Blackridge Maine is a fading coastal town of empty storefronts, and residents with too many secrets. Things seemed too quiet, until the bodies start turning up.

50 years ago the world outlawed Quirks. After All For One's defeat every nation signed the Quirk Accords, forcing civilians to surrender their powers while only licensed Pro Heroes remained. Japan became the model state. Surveillance expanded, children were evaluated as soon as their quirks manifested, and "unworthy" Quirks were erased. Beneath the illusion of peace, a secret black-ops agency kidnaps gifted children, fakes their deaths, and molds them into disposable assassins to protect the regime. Opposing it all is the fractured Resistance, risking everything to preserve freedom and the right to exist with Quirks. Now propaganda masks corruption, oppression, and rising unrest as the government prepares its most extreme law yet: the eradication of mutations from future generations.

We're looking for very active, dedicated RPers willing to take initiative to push the story forward. Everyone has a seat at the table, you control the narrative.

Welcome to Within the Woods, where we welcome players who are ages 18 and over into the world of the Old Code within Warrior Cats, closely relating to the book series 1-3. Here, you may chose between the four clans and dive into a slice of life roleplay server with classic problems.

We have high ranks open, staff open, and lore team open, all available to apply via Google Forms auditions. Submit a character and decorate a whole channel all for yourself, and engage with our growing community!

Server is brand new, sessions have not started. Times are currently set to be 9pm-11pm GMT on Wednesdays and Fridays. These are open to be changed depending on what suits the staff and community majority vote. We will always do our best to cater to everyone, but always expect rigid days and times - we do not vote on session days and times per week.

This server is for dedicated roleplayers who enjoy realism and complex systems that exist to preserve realism. Decent activity is required, and each role has a part to play in their clan. Please note that we have a good few rules to ensure player and community safety.

Small amounts of lore to learn, basic things like former high-ranks names, current situation of the clans and a medium-sized paragraph of history that gives the clans a mostly clean slate for players to develop from.

Don't hesitate to join and look around to see if Within the Woods is the server for you!
