Many Multiverse experts describe the Multiverse as a tree with an infinite number of organically growing branches. Others describe it as a forest of trees with an ever-increasing number of intertwining limbs. The tree trunks represent the origination points of the universe, but each decision or every interference from outside the universe creates another branch from the main timeline, which continues to grow and sprout more new timelines of its own. Some of these timelines are remarkably similar, such as in the cases of E-ST1966 and E-ST2009. Others are vastly different, Such as our own universe wherein Rabbit-Kind is the dominating sentient race versus other universes like E-RL226 where Humans have somehow gained sentience and control of Earth.
This page contains more information about the multiverse itself as well as theories about it's creation and ever continuing expansion.
Time travel is the phenomena of moving forward or backwards through time within ones own universe. Though it is sometimes debated whether such phenomena is simply another manifestation of similar "universes" colliding. Time travel is often characterized by figures familiar to the traveler, regardless if the traveler knew the figures personally or from a historical context.
As seen in the picture to the left, time "loop" is a misnomer. The time loop phenomenon is not so much of a loop as it is a "resetting" of time. Dimensions that become entangled in a time loop reach a specified point in time, which is often the cause of the loop, and then are forced backwards to a previous place in their own time line.

Typical found in E-RL-PS26, we occasional find transmission of Humans with a strange interest in simulated versions. It remains unclear how much of their initial self is invested in these simulations. The line between their actual lives and the simulation can become blurred at times. It makes classification of these transmissions particularly tricky.

The butterfly effect is the theory that small, seemingly inconsequential things, such as a single butterfly, have an exponential effect on a complex system. For example, if a person goes back in time and accidentally kills a bug, this could drastically change the whole timeline until the point where it is nearly unrecognizable.
This page deals with cases in which the rate pf time's passage is slowed or increased either through natural phenomena or artificial means
A paradox is a self-contradictory situation. For example, a "grandfather paradox" occurs when a person goes back in time and impregnates someone in their direct family tree; thus the person becomes their own grandparent and cannot exist until they go themselves go back in time.
Similar occurrences happen in time travel frequently, though the multiverse seems to have a built-in correction mechanism, creating more universes, sometimes it appears that this may fail and cause time lines to collapse or become locked into a time loop.
