The Hyperverse is a rather large place, containing many fragments and sections, called Plains. These plains have their own rules and regulations for how they internally run. While there isn't any inherent danger going on, it can be nice to visit them, and even battle it out in a game of Infinite Dvorak.

The Special Rules

New Card types

  • Plain is a new card type, and all Plain type cards are kept in the Hyperverse deck. Plains are a card with some static or activated ability, and have an additional effect when Chaos is rolled.
  • Event is a new card type, and all Event type cards are kept in the Hyperverse deck. Events are cards which have an immediate impact on the game, then are discarded. All Events have the implicit text at the end "Then, Plainswalk". Players cannot Plainswalk on an Event unless it instructs them to.

When printing the deck, you may want to print these as Double-Sized cards, to denote that they are special.

New Zones

  • The Hyperverse deck contains all Plains and Events included in the game, and it is always face-down. It may never contain cards which are not either a Plain or an Event. If this zone ever needs to be restocked, shuffle the Hyperverse discard to make a new Hyperverse deck.
  • The Hyperverse discard contains any Plains or Events which have been discarded during the game.
  • The Current Dimension contains the currently active Plain or Event. While a Plain is in this zone, its effect applies to the current game.

New Action

Instead of playing either a Thing or an Action, you may choose to roll the Hyperverse die, which is a d6.

  • Whenever a 1 is rolled on the Hyperverse die, Plainswalk.
  • Whenever a 6 (or whatever the highest number may be in case of modification) is rolled, activate the **Chaos** ability on the Plain.

Whenever a player is instructed to Plainswalk, that player discards the Current Dimension zone, then puts the top card of the Hyperverse deck into the Current Dimension face up. If that card is an Event, that player resolves its effect, then immediately Plainswalks again.
