Timescape (Warp)
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Timescape is a system of at least fifteen alternate realities, separate but inexplicably tied to one another (and to the fantasy world of Talisman) through the Warp. The Timescape is policed by the entities known as Sentinels, imprisoning and exiling those judged a threat to the space/time continuum. Within the Timescape can be found:[1]
- The Warp Gate to Reality in M41.[1]
- A Space Fortress, on which one can find a Robo-Doc and a Rogue Trader, willing to barter in gold for items from Reality.[1]
- Unknown planets, including Death Worlds with dangerous aliens and unbreathable atmospheres.[1]
- Endless expanses of horrible black void.[1]
- The Rad Zone, an irradiated reality of mutants and mutations.[1]
- The Realm of Chaos and powerful Warp Demons.[1]
- a Nexus at which multiple futures converge such that one can choose their own destiny.
- Time Loops which return oneself to before they left.[1]
- The Negative Zone, a strange unreality devoid of colour.[1]
- The Fourth Dimension, a realm of geometry whose transcendence of form also reverts any turned by magics into slimy little toads to their original form.[1]
- The Astral Plane.[1]
- The timeless plane of Limbo.[1]
- The Vortex, a swirling miasma tied to locations across the world of Talisman.[1]
- Outposts of the Sentinels.[1]
Note
The Timescape was created for Talisman: Timescape in 1988, the fourth expansion to the Games Workshop board game Talisman as a means for the characters of other Games Workshop properties, including Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader and Chainsaw Warrior, to adventure in the fantasy world of Talisman.
