Within Our Current Understanding Of Reality And The Multiverse, There Is A Theoretically Infinite Number

Within our current understanding of reality and the multiverse, there is a theoretically infinite number of sophont species that have achieved the Hyperichon stage of advancement and have broken free of their Cycle. Though all have differing origins, these omni-beings are collectively called "Hyperichals," or more commonly "Drifters." Drifters exist outside the limits of the cosmos and can travel between universes at will. They have attained final and complete knowledge of physics, and have total mastery over the workings of reality through post-singularity thaumatech.

They are, in every sense, ultimate.

Individual Drifters no longer retain the biology of their ancestors, having transcended the limits of physical form, and can choose to manifest in whatever way they wish while inside a universe. Since Drifters have an entirely different relationship with time, it is possible (though rare) for a developing civilization to encounter their Hyperichal descendants, though they will likely never realize this unless they are explicitly told so.

In terms of society, there are a few paths a Hyperichon-stage civilization may take after ascendancy. Some believe there is still further to be known, and perform increasingly elaborate and esoteric experiments with the clockwork of reality. Most, however, choose to adopt or create a small, stable cosmos or cosmic network as their new ideal home, called a Haven. They harvest mass from dead universes to build, unlimited, inside their Haven, and maintain its entropy in a similar manner to how we maintain marine tanks or the air cycle in a spacecraft. A rare few Hyperichal civilizations are marauders, but these are the ones who have accidentally attained pseudo-Hyperichal status before they were ready and almost always destroy themselves in due time. True Drifters have no qualms with each other; they live in a post-scarcity eternity, where everything is infinite and forever.

Lore Tuesday

So, a while ago, a community Discord server I was in had a thing called Lore Tuesday: every Tuesday in the daily questions channel you got a free pass to share a random nugget of information about your original world/story/characters. That server is effectively dead now, but I'm bringing Lore Tuesday here, because I miss it very much and it feels like a fun thing to do on the blog –especially considering I haven't actually posted much in the way of worldbuilding, historically speaking. I'm gonna try to post a random lore nugget every Tuesday, and tag it with #lore tuesday! Feel free to snag this idea yourselves if you so desire. :)
