Hey lorehounds!
I'm looking for ways to explain the OSRS world being an alternate (slightly-altered) universe, thus allowing some OSRS content to deviate from RuneScape 3's lore... and I thought you guys would be the perfect people to ask
To be specific, we're looking for some way to explain both the existence and altering of an alternate dimension. The difference between the two would have effects in both the past and present of OSRS; for example, maybe Sliske doesn't even exist in OSRS (past), and Guthix never is assassinated (future). As OSRS and RuneScape 3 have many similarities, the initial difference in them would have to be somewhat small (such as Jas sneezing when he created the first one, accidentally creating another slightly different one).
A few things we've thought of are:
- Jas creating another universe before they destroy everything
- Some magical force duplicates the universe during the tectonic movement that unfroze the God Wars (or the same magical force that caused the tectonic movement)
- When Saradomin accidentally copy/pasted the Stone of Jas instead of cut/pasting it, he also copied the universe (unbeknownst to him)
Do any of those seem both feasible and believable to you? Do you have any ideas that'd be better?
Thanks a lot, and happy 'Scaping!
