Big Three

"Big Three" is the English translation of an epitaph commonly given to the three regulatory agencies that oversee and (supposedly) safeguard the Extremity. These are the Pan-Dimensional Office of Deities, the Temporary Government of the Extremity, and Omni Corporation. These three organizations are the most powerful and influential in the Extremity, and are now inextricably bound up with its workings. A brief summary of the three is given below, in descending order of age from top to bottom. For more detail, visit the entries on each one.

Pan-Dimensional Office of Deities
The oldest and most mysterious of the three, it seems that the Pan-Dimensional Office of Deities has existed in some form for as long as the Extremity has been. It is the most closely related to the actual workings of the Extremity and maintains the laws of science and magic both. It's members and offices are worshipped by many fledgling civilizations who do not understand its true nature. The most mysterious thing about the Pan-Dimensional Office of Deities is that it seems to have been created with a definite purpose before any of the prominent civilizations even existed. This fact has led to much speculation about the possibility of beings older than the Extremity itself, who created the totality with purpose.

Temporary Government of the Extremity
The Temporary Government of the Extremity (TGE for short) is the second oldest of the Big Three. It is also the most open and democratic, formed from an agreement between the many civilizations ascending to prominence in the Extremity. The TGE was created to settle disputes between them, create laws, and decide important matters. The civilizations involved vested all of their powers into it, and representatives from every one of them are elected regularly to serve as government officials. The Pan-Dimensional Office of Deities (somehow already established at this point) also recognized its authority, pledging to give the TGE equal authority to itself in any matters of import regarding Extremity-wide law.

Omni Corporation
Appearing almost immediately after the TGE, Omni Corporation was founded by a party which has taken great pains to remain anonymous. It is not known exactly why both the TGE and the Pan-Dimensional Office of Deities agreed to give it complete control over all copyrighted material (in other words, everything that anyone has officially registered ever) but they did, almost without hesitation. Omni Corporation quickly became powerful enough to be considered on equal footing with the other two organizations. Though it is a private agency and technically has no lawmaking power, the fact that it owns almost everything in the Extremity gives it quite a lot of influence. No one is sure what Omni Corporation's ultimate goal is, but many people feel that it has a sinister agenda.
