"Not off the top of my head."

Name: Eos

Worldfamily, if applicable: N/A

Primary inhabited planet(s): Earth, Mars

Known intelligent species: Humans

Technology/magic situation: Standard technology level for early 21st century Earth; one kind of transferable magic - minting/wishcoins - and one kind of innate per-person magic - ingots, which are people with single non-duplicated magical powers.

Afterlife situation: Downside world number 74, introduced to Downside post-pealing

Safety rating and notes for visitors: Magic is nonsecret to the population of Earth but individuals may be wary.

Glass's commentary: --

List of inhabiting templates: Bell, Stella; Libby, Libby; Joker, Alice; Chainsaw, Sandy; Anna, Anna. All humans, all mints. Sandy, Alice, and Stella are also ingots.

"It does have that resemblance to Aurum. They're not as close as any two Sunny worlds, but it's not nothing."

"Okay," she says, and she puts 'Eos-Aurum' under Worldfamily. "Pending a better name. Maybe we'll come up with one if we find another cousin."

Glass nods. "It's not an unusually nice or unusually mean world. It's exploitable - more than here; Chronicle is nice but doesn't natively lend itself to being cracked open and comprehended, I think, and Eos is fine with that. Most of the Earths I looked at seemed more or less exploitable in this way. It feels more - isolated than some of them. Like - it has features in common with Aurum, but not on the same layer as the Sunnyworlds. On the layer that Sunnyworlds are - using - for resemblance, Eos floats around completely alone and nowhere else I looked at does - though some of them do it differently."

"Interesting," says Libby. She copies this down.

"Huh. Maybe a 'worldfamily' description isn't going to cut it," says Libby. "It'll do for now, I guess."

"And Wellspring is distantly related to Sunnyworlds on a different layer."

"I wonder what the family tree would look like."

"I have no idea!"

She laughs.

"Milliways does the complete opposite of the Eos-floating thing. I'd say Downside does too, but it doesn't even compare to Milliways."

"That seems logical."

"I should really name all these layers, but they don't come in a sensible order to allow for numbering, and I have so little idea what any of them mean."

"Wait on it," Libby suggests. "When you have a better idea of what they mean, you'll have a better idea of how to name them."

Glass nods.

"I'll ask my alts to profile their worlds," says Libby, and she conjures a proper Worldbook containing the Eos entry. It has a planet on the cover, and because Libby has a sense of humour, the planet on the cover is rotating at roughly Earthlike speeds.

Aegis swings by to add a new profile.

"Glass, you wanna comment on Aurum? And Helios and Sunshine, but Granny's the one who's currently writing."

"Aurum's not as mean as Sunnyworlds, but it's still pretty mean - but perfectly exploitable. It's related to Eos, like I said. I think it might have some kind of special relationship to the Bell template but I don't have any more detail."

Pattern puts in a profile too.

Name: Aurum

Worldfamily, if applicable: Eos-Aurum

Primary inhabited planet(s): Earth

Known intelligent species: humans; vampires, "diamond" variety; werewolves, Quileute variety.

Technology/magic situation: Mid-twenty-first-century Earth. Apart from special characteristics of aforementioned species (pamphlets available), there is a kind of innate non-transferable per-person magic called witchcraft, where witches are people with single non-duplicated magical powers.

Afterlife situation: Downside world number 61, connected since before pealing

Safety rating and notes for visitors: Someone might fall magically and irrevocably in love with you! And magic is not fully known to the population at large. Consult the local precog, name of Alice, before meeting anyone else.

Glass's commentary: "Aurum's not as mean as Sunnyworlds, but it's still pretty mean - but perfectly exploitable. It's related to Eos, like I said. I think it might have some kind of special relationship to the Bell template but I don't have any more detail."

List of inhabiting templates: Bell, Golden, vampire; Libby, Granny, human; Joker, Joker, human, immigrated from Origin; Anna, Eights, human, died and moved to Downside; Jasper, Jazz, vampire.

Juliet reprofiles herself, incidentally providing an excuse for Glass to put her Sunnyworld commentary into words.

Name: Helios

Worldfamily, if applicable: Sunny

Primary inhabited planet(s): Earth

Known intelligent species: humans; vampires, "sunshine" variety; a staggeringly extensive list of nonhuman species collectively referred to as "demons".

Technology/magic situation: Early twenty-first-century Earth, with aforementioned demons and a flexible but occasionally hostile magic system common to the Sunny worlds.

Afterlife situation: Downside world number 78, introduced to Downside post-pealing

Safety rating and notes for visitors: Most nonhuman species consider humans food. Magic is not generally known among humans. Safe for cautious visits, but not a good tourist destination. Don't turn into a local vampire; the transition comes with unpredictable personality changes and a frequent hobby of recently turned Sunshine vampires is killing all their pre-transition friends.

Glass's commentary: "This place is mean as anything, all the worlds in the family are. The Sunnyworlds are distantly related to Wellspring on one layer and to Yggdrasil on another."

List of inhabiting templates: Libby, Slipstick, human, moved to Origin; Tony, Sapphire, human; Sherlock, Cloud, human.
