The Continuum Universes Wiki serves as a dynamic and expanding encyclopedia for the Continuum Universes, which spans captivating works like ''[[Legends from Lethurêa Series]],'' ''[[Saga of Galaxa Series]]'', and interactive formats such as the Continuum CCG and TTRPG. Created originally by Jensen Saga Studio, these Universes reflect a familial passion for storytelling, with the hope that its community will grow as the series evolves.
The '''Continuum Universes Wiki''' is a [https://www.mediawiki.org MediaWiki]-powered encyclopedia and writing workspace for the '''[[Continuum Universes]]''' project: a connected multiverse of original settings used for stories, games, and related creative works. It serves two roles at once: a reader-friendly reference guide, and a structured “lore database” designed to keep canon consistent across many universes and genres.


The Continuum Universes are unique, interconnected realities brimming with diverse characters, enthralling lore, and intricate worlds. From the urban underbelly of Galaxa's Deep City to the celestial grandeur of Lethurêa's legendary twin blades, these realms offer endless adventures. The universes explore everything from gritty battles of vampiric [[Valorêin]] to the harmonious societies of crystalline [[Aenorian|Aenorians]].
== Purpose and scope ==
The wiki documents the Continuum as a multiverse setting with recurring cosmology, metaphysics, and scientific principles. In practical terms, it is meant to:


At its heart, the franchise showcases complex mythologies and awe-inspiring technology, combining science fantasy with cultural depth inspired by global traditions. Every creation weaves a narrative tapestry where deities, mortals, and cosmic forces collide, offering players and readers endless ways to engage.
* organize canon (so concepts stay consistent across books, games, and campaigns)
* keep terminology standardized (so “the same thing” doesn’t splinter into five names)
* provide a home for both core setting material and curated community contributions


From the rich history to the colorful characters and exciting conflicts, Continuum Universes has something to offer for every taste. This is but the first of many amazing journeys that there are. :dog6:
While many pages are written in an “in-universe encyclopedia” voice, this wiki itself is a real-world creative production tool: a way to build a large setting without it turning into an unreadable pile of disconnected cool ideas.

The Continuum Universes Wiki is a MediaWiki-powered encyclopedia and writing workspace for the Continuum Universes project: a connected multiverse of original settings used for stories, games, and related creative works. It serves two roles at once: a reader-friendly reference guide, and a structured “lore database” designed to keep canon consistent across many universes and genres.

Purpose and scope

The wiki documents the Continuum as a multiverse setting with recurring cosmology, metaphysics, and scientific principles. In practical terms, it is meant to:

  • organize canon (so concepts stay consistent across books, games, and campaigns)
  • keep terminology standardized (so “the same thing” doesn’t splinter into five names)
  • provide a home for both core setting material and curated community contributions

While many pages are written in an “in-universe encyclopedia” voice, this wiki itself is a real-world creative production tool: a way to build a large setting without it turning into an unreadable pile of disconnected cool ideas.

Content model

Most pages are built around repeatable content types (with templates and categories to keep them consistent), such as:

  • Universes (major settings within the Continuum)
  • Species and races (biological and cultural profiles)
  • Characters (biographical entries tied into factions and events)
  • Substances and materials (chemistry, hazards, exotic matter)
  • Atmospheres and world types (planetology and environmental rules)
  • Magic systems and metaphysical mechanics (how “weird physics” behaves)

The intended style is highly interlinked: pages should connect outward to related concepts (taxonomy, locations, factions, cosmological laws) so readers can navigate the setting like a living knowledge graph rather than a linear book.

Community and licensing

The Continuum Universes Wiki uses a hybrid model that separates:

  • core IP (official setting material, characters, and flagship works), and
  • fan contributions (community-written content published under a Creative Commons framework)

Community contributions are expected to follow the project’s formatting and canon-safety guidelines (templates, categories, tone, and internal consistency), with review/approval processes used where necessary to prevent contradictions or accidental canon breakage.
