Live anywhere in the Worm and Ward eras: Brockton Bay before Taylor's first patrol, a city changed by Leviathan, the end of the world, or Victoria's fragile new world on Earth Gimel.

The companion lorebooks contain 560 entries: 354 Worm setting entries, 32 Worm arc and chronology entries, 140 Ward entries, and 34 adaptable RPG rules. They cover roughly 250 named characters and major beings, plus factions, places, powers, events, and 53 arc summaries. Character counts are approximate because some people appear in both series and some entries describe groups or identities.

Choose a canon arc, a chapter, a different date, an alternate timeline, or an original starting point. Bring any character sheet: a new arrival, an established cape, an ordinary civilian, a powerful original character, or someone with an entirely different power source. The Gamer framework adapts to your sheet. Strong abilities remain strong. No obligatory hero path, forced canon outcome, or artificial power balancing.

Taylor's journey gives Worm its timeline; Victoria's gives Ward its next chapter. Their stories continue only as far as the player's actions allow. The world moves with or without you.
