It's basically the outer space, but with the touch of fantasy

TheoAllen, tried to explain the rift, scientifically

Note: Not to be confused with The Rift. This page explains the rift in a bigger picture and larger concept.

Riftverse is a plane of collection of many different realms that are separated by the void gap that is called “The Rift”. These realms have their own name and its own rules. Each realm may (or may not) occupy one of the sectors/regions. Riftverse has no actual deity that rules the entire universe. However, the local realm or region may have one.

Riftverse in its core consists of only two components. The source of energy that is often named as “Ether” and the Matter. Ether does not have a body but the existence drives something toward the change. In another hand, the matter is static. They will not change itself on its own. When ether and matter meet, something happens. The shape of the matter may change. Some believe that the source of life is the Ether while the vessel is the Matter.

There're other components that made the Riftverse in which they're basically just a derivation of the main two components. These components are

1. The Rift
2. Ether Core
3. Devourer
4. Serpent's Tunnel

Further explanation below

It is believed that Riftverse has more than 95% of its component as The Rift, the gap between many realms. However, the appearance of the rift does not always be dark and gloomy. It usually imitates a random environment whether if it's a harsh environment or subtle one. This change is influenced by the instability of ether that flows within the rift space itself. Many who have fallen into the rift may not actually aware if they're inside the rift until they began to see some irregularity of their surrounding like the sudden shift of environment.

Although, occasionally the appearance of the rift may appear friendly (such as when the rift decides to imitate a peaceful environment), the rift itself is inhabitable. The reason why it's inhabitable is because every matter within the rift is not permanent. Longer exposure to the rift may also harmful to the living being as their physical form may be altered.

The Void is a place within the rift space that contains nothing. There is almost zero matter and ether within the void space. The void space is harmful that any living being thrown into the void may dissolve into pieces to fill the space.

The Great Filter is both periodical and unpredictable phenomenon within The Rift that makes life or civilization impossible to establish. The Great Filter causes a massive disturbance on the fabric of space causing distortion and turning most of the matters into something else. The phenomenon is caused by the Ether Storm that flows within the rift space itself, effectively affecting anything that goes through within the storm. There is no known way to endure the storm except to hide within the Pocket Realm. Direct exposure to the filter may greatly reduce any living being life span. In a worst-case scenario, they may even turn into The Lurker.
