User blog:Inferno Pendragon/Afterlives, Immortals and Omniverse Paradoxes

we have many afterlives and concepts of the "soul", as well as immortality - we also run on the assumption that the Omniverse is a very real concept rather than simply theoretical.. as such we come across many seeming paradoxes : such as how can Life, Death and Rebirth work in a setting where absolutely everything can and will exist?

In some realities you'll have afterlives that are traditionally seen as "eternal" (Heaven, Hell etc) and in others you may have concepts of spiritual destruction (Abysm etc) and in all settings we have Life, Death and Rebirth going on.. these seem very contrasting but I think I've found some ways to get it all working relatively smoothly.

my first part is trying to flesh out "immortality".. the main types are briefly detailed here as well as how I feel the process of "Life, Death and Rebirth" tends to work out..

this is going to be a massive and complex subject and I'm just getting started on it but we need to tackle it eventually, with every author having different takes on the way souls etc are dealt with we need to find a way to get a grand plan together just as we did with the "God Force" and so on..

we managed to devise the Dreamer as a means to populate Omniverse with "Gods" (despite the apparent paradox of multiple "God" figures) - now we need to tackle an equally weighty paradox.. it will be interesting to say the least.
