Portal Dimensions

Introduction Details Plot Important Restricted Other Known Claim

Introduction

Ellipsa is connected to several dimensions. They're all part of the world, but exist on other plains entirely.

There are two different types of dimensions:

- World Expansions. Places that are connected to Ellipsa completely, adding something to the world, such as Hell Dimension.
- Neighbours. Places that have their own magic systems completely, with little to no relation to Ellipsa.

Portals all require a portal gun and a coordinate of two numbers; X and Y. So one coordinate would be x1, y2 for example. The coordinates come from "a grid" of 999 x 999.

Once a dimension has been officially chosen, the portal gun used will be locked to that location only (other portal guns cannot access it). Before that characters are able to visit different worlds briefly (max. 24 hours before the portal closes) to investigate what they're like and make a choice based on their discoveries.

Portal Dimensions, once locked, can remain open as long as the character wants them to be - so even permanently in their own house, for example.

Portal Guns

The devices look a lot like radar guns in different kinds of colors and decorations. The numbers are put on the gun by num pads installed on them. The trigger works as both opening and closing method.

First portal gun can be received from the Research Center for free; gaining more requires 50,000 Moon Coins per gun.

The portal guns are very sturdy, but if one does break it can be easily fixed by either Winter Powers or at the Research Center. The coordinates will only be erased from it if it's completely broken into bits and pieces. If that happens, the portal will either remain closed or open.

Nature of the Portal Dimensions

The portal dimensions are whatever players wish them to be with some restrictions.

The worlds inside the dimensions are no bigger than Madagascar. They come in various different landscapes. Some are lush green islands surrounded by the sea while others might be mode modern, empty cities. All of them are blank canvases in terms of having no people in them.

Instead the dimensions usually have their own wildlife that fit the world's landscapes. It's entirely possible to encounter communities of animals living a normal life like they would back on Ellipsa.

There's also a possibility that a world is filled with monsters. Hostile or peaceful, intelligent or savages, maybe even a mix of all. There could be just wildlife and monsters. But one thing they lack is 'humans' or human-like people.

All monsters with human-like intelligence need a permission from the portal owner to come out of their dimension. Others can come and go as they want, which is why the Research Center suggests opening portals for the first time in a safe space and not in one's living room.

New monster species can be made by the characters and even submitted to this comment, in case you want to 'accidentally' release some into Ellipsa. Just don't create any game breaking world ending ones.

Players are also free to come up with a magic system for their world, but the magic from the dimensions can't be brought to Ellipsa at this moment.

Use

Portal Dimensions are given to otherworlders to "use as they wish". Exploration, cultivation, experimentation. The Research Center only asks that people treat the local ecosystems with respect and don't bring the dimensions into complete ruins just for fun.

Officially, the research center is using these dimensions to test ways to bring people from other worlds into Ellipsa willingly. A safe place to do magic that's normally dangerous to use.

Entrance: Currently Closed

A space that looks as if the water surface and the sky melt together, as the water reflects the starry sky. On the water there are several rowing boats. Once at least two people are inside a boat it will start moving across the surface of water and will eventually disappear into a mist.

Home of demons and other dark creatures. Seems to be on fire.

Other Known Portals

Portals that have appeared in TDMS, Quests and so on, provided by the mod team.

x151, y151: Pokémon Dimension (April 2025 TDM)
Entrance: Underground Mall

Stepping into the domain is like stepping into another world. Right inside of it, there’s an array of things for getting started on exploration.

There’s a vending machine with simple food and drink items that are going to be easy to store and travel with when venturing further into the domain. There’s also a small machine with camping items - just in case anyone forgot to grab their own before setting out into the domain. Any items bought are yours to keep - and it seems these vending machines were set up just after the domain was opened up.

Nearby, there’s a vending machine featuring things that are needed for any Pokémon Trainer - Poké Balls! All Poké Balls (except Master) are able to be obtained in this vending machine. And, if someone gets lucky it will drop a shiny charm or other useful items in your adventure (think things like Potions, Repels, Lures).

Throughout the domain, there’s several different biomes - mountains, fields, forests, water, ice, caves, etc. They are typically found in biomes appropriate to them (Zubats in Caves, Rattatas in tall grass, Magikarp in bodies of water - for example). Most Pokémon can be found if you search the right spots. There are no Legendary or Mythical Pokémon, and the Pseudo-Legendary are extremely rare.

Other locations that can be found throughout domain are:
● Pokémon Centers - There are two different types of these throughout the domain. Some are run totally automatically without any help from staff. There are others that are manned by Pokémon - especially Chansey! These Pokémon Centers will have vending machines with food, drink, and Poké Balls.
● Campgrounds - These are scattered throughout the domain. Many are set up near the Pokémon Centers; however, there are some scattered throughout.
● Bicycle and Scooter Stations - The first one is not far from the entrance. There’s many throughout the domain which have bicycles and electric scooters that can be used for faster travel. When a one is left abandoned or unused for a few hours, it will be returned to the nearest station. These electric scooters are able to last for 48 hours of solid movement without a charge, but simply parking it at a station seems to charge it! Scooters make sounds that can scare off wild Pokémon, while bicycles are quiet.
● Observation Towers - There’s four of them in total in the domain. Climbing up a long staircase will lead someone to the top which allows them to get a good view of the landscape. In these, there’s a telescope to help enable someone to see quite far! There’s also one cot in case anyone wants to stay there for the night.

190x, 5y: Farmland (June/July 2025 Questboard)
There's a portal dimension that's being used to grow crops for the people of Nightwake since there's not enough farmland. Crops are mostly grains and other field crops, such as wheat, barley, canola, or flax. The farm work involves irrigation (it doesn't rain so much in summer!), weeding, spreading fertilizer, finding ways to keep out pests like mice and gophers that are eating the crops, and possibly finding ways to protect the crop from hail or fires.

x238x, y25: Jam (April/May 2025 Questboard)
A dimension that's basically a giant jar full of jam.

Claim Your Portal

All portal dimensions must be claimed by using the form below and commenting on this post before being used.

If a character visits multiple before deciding, the briefly visited ones don't need to be reported.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

If there's any technology in the worlds, can they be brought over?

If there are species intelligent enough (ie. robotfolk?) to make technology, yes. It's likely very rare, but no unheard of.

As long as they're only actually played in locked posts, can we have dimensions where the description is NSFW?

free use dimension tho

As long as you give proper warnings for the dimension on your claim post and restrict anyone under the age of 16 from going into it, it's fine.

In the event your character stumbles upon one of the restricted coordinates, comment here so it can be used for later! Your character will also get a personal update on the portal dimension once the place is discovered.
