File Extensions

File Extensions in the Phalikan Multiverse can be crazy powerful, to the point where some if opened, or even had on your system, could cause a error in the spacetime continuum.

First of all, the weakest of the extensions, a .fors file can be run to alter reality slightly, but is restrained to cyberspace. It can be used to hijack most computers that haven't gotten a program to block out attempted attacks. But, if used on its home computer, it can be used to create artificial intelligences, or even wipe data from the hard drive, in a way that cannot be recovered even with backups or RΔwind.

Second, there are .qxj files. These are considerably more powerful. They are similar to a .fors file, but are not restrained to cyber space. They rely on anomalies in the universe they are in to get their job done. However, there runs the risk of there being no anomalies to exploit, and the job never being done. But, if it works, it can be used to destroy universes. But, most anomalies are resolved before they can get powerful enough to do this.

Next, there are .f8 files. These are different than .qxj and .fors files, but are equally powerful. This can be used to alter anything the computer running it has access to, which, depending on the person, could be anything from the lights to a Quantum Reactor.

Next are .ρxi, or .pxi files, if you don't want to switch to superscript and paste a rho symbol in, or if your computer doesn't allow superscript in file names. These are one of the strangest, and the best for all-around coding and running said code. They are often used to create games, viruses, or other code that can manipulate reality, and a .ρxi file can be used to create other types of files.

Then there are .oz files, which are the most bizarre of the bunch. They are used for an assortment of things, like changing the laws of physics in an area, or causing a entire city to turn to dust, or even turning a star into a black hole. These are crazy dangerous and powerful, and that's why use of them is strictly forbidden for mortals and most celestials.

Then, there are .verse files. These are made when an Astral, or anyone else with access to a Zero drive, uploads a universe to a disc/cartridge/flash card/whatever. The owner of the file needs to make sure the file doesn't crash or corrupt, because if that happens, an event called Quantum Corruption takes place, requiring a restart or backup of the universe.

Next, the .λnδ. This is a file that can create anomalies in the universe, or even portals to other universes. Pretty self-explanatory.

And finally, the .راجناروك file. There are only one of these that exist, within a cartridge, within a Subspace Cabinet, with the owner of the cabinet dead, killed by a Master Astral. This file is called nςrΞhuφ.اجناروك, and rumors say that it had the power to create a Dimensional Pulsar, one so powerful and so destructive that the Astrals had to step in and destroy it. Very little info is known of how this file works.
