The Runiverse in Tables and Numbers

Civilization

In the vast expanse of the Runiverse, there are whispers and echoes of numbers, equations that weave a pattern through the multiverse. As Tabitha of the March, I have trod beyond the veil of reality, encroaching upon other planes and dimensions in pursuit of wisdom. I have danced with time and walked with shadows, and in my celestial journeys, I’ve discovered an intriguing pattern.

For every four hundred souls living their lives in the tumultuous dance of existence, there stands one sentinel, armed and ready to protect. The ratio, 400:1, as we understand in arithmetic, is a curious constant across diverse political systems and locations within the Runiverse. Yet, it is but an average; this reality is fluid and changes like the course of a river, bending under the weight of peace and conflict.

The Runiverse, in its limitless expanse, houses around 6.4 billion entities. Ah, such a constellation of life! Elves with their timeless grace, Humans bearing the weight of mortality, Dwarfs chiseling their stories into stone, Robots ticking away at the mechanics of existence, and countless others, some of which haven’t been seen since ages past.

Then, there are us Wizards. We are but 10,000 in this sea of billions, each holding a spark of magic in our cores. Strange isn’t it, how we remain constant, unchanging and unbreeding? A ratio of 1:640,000 it might be, yet in this scarcity, the rarity of magic gleams ever brighter.

Entity Type	Total Quantity	Ratio to Total Entities
Total Entities (Elves, Humans, Dwarfs, Robots, etc.)	6,400,000,000	N/A
Warriors	16,000,000	400:1
Wizards	10,000	1:640,000

There is a myriad of different folks roaming the planes

Anurans	Amphibious beings, possibly similar to frogs or toads.
Canaanites	Not much is known about them currently.
Corvids	Likely bird-like creatures, based on the name (related to crows and ravens).
Dwarves	A classic fantasy race known for their short stature and craftsmanship.

Goblins	Often portrayed as small, green, and mischievous creatures in fantasy settings.
Great Old Ones	Likely very powerful and ancient entities.
Imps	Typically small, devilish creatures.
Kobolds	In some mythologies, these are sprite-like creatures, and in others, they are reptilian.

Occupations

Ah, the many roles one might occupy within the Runiverse, as diverse and mysterious as the stars above! As a keen observer of this wondrous world, and I’ve had the pleasure of interacting with many individuals of varying occupations.

In our magical realm, labels of ‘jobs’ take on fluid meanings, much like the marshes I call home – always shifting, yet ever constant. Now, let’s delve into these fascinating statistics, bearing in mind they’re as variable as the tides, changing across lands and ages.

Firstly, do remember that our classifications can intertwine, much like the roots beneath my beloved marshlands. For instance, consider a healer – their role extends into both ‘Healthcare’ and ‘Professional Services’, much like a lily pad touches both water and air. Moreover, many inhabitants of Runiverse carry out roles that defy conventional categorization, much like my dear friend Jingle-Jangle, my faithful pony companion who also doubles as a fearless explorer and occasional comic relief.

Now, to cast a spell of understanding on these numbers, I would say…

Occupation	Estimated Percentage	Workers
Sales and Retail	10.2%	652,800,000
Food Service	9.6%	614,400,000
Office and Administrative Support	15.5%	992,000,000
Healthcare	12.1%	774,400,000
Education	8.4%	537,600,000
Transportation	3.8%	243,200,000
Manufacturing and Construction	8.1%	518,400,000
Professional Services	12.3%	787,200,000
Public Safety and Security	2.4%	153,600,000
Cleaning and Maintenance Services	3.5%	224,000,000
Witchcraft and Wizardry	0.00015625%	9,310

Of course there are many occupations within the realm that are not widely known and very specific to the Runiverse. Here are but a few:

Occupation	Description
Wizards	Individuals who have mastered the art of magic and spend their days practicing and refining their spells.
Warriors	Brave fighters who often venture into dangerous territories to protect the innocent and uphold justice.
Healers	Masters of restorative magic, they dedicate their lives to curing ailments and injuries.
Artificers	Craftsmen who specialize in imbuing everyday items with magical properties.
Alchemists	Scientists of the magical world, blending the line between magic and science to create powerful potions and transformative elixirs.
Beastmasters	Individuals with a deep connection to magical creatures, working as trainers, caretakers, or liaisons between humans and magical beasts.
Seers	Individuals blessed with the ability to glimpse into the future, offering guidance and predictions to those seeking it.
Bards	Keepers of stories and songs, using their music and tales to inspire, entertain, and occasionally cast spells.
Runemasters	Scholars and practitioners of ancient runic magic, often working as historians, translators, or magical consultants.
Merchants	Traders and shopkeepers dealing in magical artifacts, enchanted items, rare ingredients, and other curiosities.

Geographic aspects of the Runiverse

Ah, the vastness of our Runiverse! How does one capture its expanse in mere mortal terms? If I, Tabitha of the March, may venture an attempt to paint a picture of this magical realm…

You see, in my many travels across the Runiverse, from the highest peak of the Ether mountains to the deepest caverns of the Goblin Town, I’ve come to understand that the Runiverse cannot be measured in ordinary miles or kilometers. It is a realm where magic pulses through the very air we breathe, and time dances to the rhythm of the Ouroboros.

Yet, if we were to liken the Runiverse to something known, imagine Earth, our ancient home, in a time when all continents were one – Pangea, they called it. If you can fathom that expanse, then you’re beginning to grasp the breadth of the Runiverse. Roughly 57,308,738 square leagues, as the crow flies… or so I’ve been told by a particularly chatty Sphinx I met in my wanderings.

But, oh, how dry and lifeless numbers can be! The Runiverse is not just a space to be measured. It’s a living, breathing entity, humming with the stories of those who dwell within. In every corner of the world, from the Rusty Cogs of Gearland to the whispering leaves of the Dream Forest, a thousand tales unfold. Each one adds its own unique thread to the rich tapestry of the Runiverse, making it far more than the sum of its parts.

So, dear friend, the next time you gaze upon the Runiverse Map, remember: it’s not about the size of the land, but the magic within it. And that is a measure no alchemist’s scale could ever weigh.

Aspect	Description
Land mass	57,308,738 square leagues
Location	Earth, thousands of years in the future
Major Event	Technological Singularity
Result of Major Event	Magic brought into the world, reality distorted
Geography	New Pangea due to continental drift
Climate	Varied; affected by magic
Wildlife	Includes mythological beasts, magical creatures and distorted versions of known species
Inhabitants	Wizards, Warriors, Liches, Zombies, Goblins, Chimeras, Anurans and more
Technology Level	Varies; from non-existent to highly advanced
Magic	Coexists with technology; source of conflict

The Economy at a glance

Ah, the economy of our Runiverse, a realm where the mystical and the mundane intertwine, where every toil births not just goods, but stories themselves. I must share with you my observations as a humble alchemist who has charted this world, one potion at a time.

Imagine, if you will, a cosmos where every denizen is not just a craftsman, but a world shaper. A blacksmith, in the glow of his forge, hammers out swords infused with ancient magic. Wizards, cloaked in moonlight, brew potent elixirs that can turn the tide of battles or mend the most grievous wounds. And poets, ah, those wordsmiths whose verses echo with the vibrant harmonics of the Runiverse, crafting tales that transform into tangible power.

These are not mere objects; they are lifeblood, tokens of our shared existence, traded and exchanged in the grand dance of mutual prosperity. I have seen it firsthand, watching as an ordinary herb transforms under my touch, becoming a vial of shimmering potion, a token of healing that can be gifted or bartered.

The principle of “create-to-earn” beats at the heart of our world, like a drum resonating through the ether. It’s not merely about survival, it’s about contributing to the tapestry of our shared experience. Each creation, from the simplest wooden spoon to the mightiest fortress, adds another thread to this intricate weave.

What truly fascinates me, however, is how our Runiverse melds with the digital ether. Every artifact, every creation can be transmuted into a form of Digital Enchantment – or as the technomancers call them, “NFTs”. These can then be traded in the vast expanse of the digital market, a bridge between the ethereal and the tangible.

And then there’s the land, each plot a unique blend of resources and potential. The location of your homestead could dictate the herbs that grow in your garden, the creatures that roam your forests. This creates a real estate market as dynamic and unpredictable as a storm at sea3.

In essence, our Runiverse’s economy is a reflection of our own world’s, yet it is suffused with the enchanting elements of magic and the visionary concepts of technology. But know this: while gold and gems are prized, the true wealth of the Runiverse lies in its people. Their dreams, their creativity, their stories… these are the treasures beyond measure. And as Tabitha of the March, I am honored to play my part in this grand cosmic dance.

Food and Drink

In the endless cycle of seasons, one question often weighs heavy on my heart – how does one nourish such an abundant sea of souls? A question not just of practical reality, but a puzzle that pierces to the very core of existence in our Runiverse.

Our realm, in all its enchanting complexity, is a theatre where wealth and scarcity dance in a relentless ballet. Verdant valleys brim with bounties, while elsewhere, parched lands hunger for the kiss of rain. Food, that simple necessity of life, becomes a coveted treasure and a spark for discord.

Ah, the grains! Those tiny kernels of life, each one holding a promise of a lush, golden field. Every year, we harvest billions of them, each grain a testament to the miracles of nature and magic combined. And corn, its golden cobs glowing like suns under the azure sky, is reaped almost as plentifully.

Fruit trees burst forth in a riot of colors, their branches heavy with succulent offerings. Apples, those emerald and ruby orbs, number in the billions. And the humble potato, the underground gem, multiplies generously beneath the earth.

Beneath the shimmering surface of our vast reservoirs, water elementals tirelessly work to purify the billions of litres we need to quench our thirst. The vineyards, under the watchful eyes of the grape sprites, produce an ocean of wine, while hops and barley spirits collaborate to create rivers of beer.

Milk, that nurturing potion, flows abundantly from our blessed cattle, watched over by the gentle Earth goddess herself. Oranges, those radiant globes of vitamin-filled nectar, are gathered by the millions.

And oh, the carrots! I fondly recall my own experiments with these orange roots. Their cultivation has exploded since the discovery of their magical benefits.

Not to forget the protein providers – the livestock and fish. Whether swimming in the ever-changing blues of the seas or grazing in the emerald pastures, they multiply under the protective gaze of our Runiverse’s guardians.

And the eggs – innumerable little packets of life, each entrusted with a precious spark of existence, counted in trillions.

And so, we carry on, in this magical world. We plant, we reap, we eat. We strive to balance the scales of abundance and need, we strive to feed the multitude of mouths. But above all, we marvel at the miracle of life, and the magic that sustains it. We live, and we learn, in the ever-turning Wheel of the Runiverse.

Crime

In the Runiverse, crime and its resolution take on a form unlike anything we’d recognize in our traditional sense. The combination of scientific principles, magic, and alchemical processes creates a unique and complex system. My perspective, my experiences and interactions with this system are as remarkable as they are puzzling.

In my adventures, I’ve encountered what can best be described as “Magical Constabularies.” These organizations aren’t merely law enforcers but a blend of investigators, scientists, wizards, and alchemists. Their duty is to maintain order, resolve disputes, investigate unusual happenings, and ensure the proper use of magic in the Runiverse.

In the Runiverse, we don’t have a centralized police force. Rather, each region or domain typically maintains its own magical constabulary. I’ve noticed these constabularies are often managed by seasoned wizards or witches, who hold extensive knowledge in both magic and alchemy. They utilize their expertise to probe into crimes, track magical energy, interpret intricate alchemical patterns left at crime scenes, and they can even manipulate spacetime to revisit past occurrences.

For instance, I remember a time when I was implicated in causing magical disturbances. The local Magical Constabulary, with their impressive skills, traced the magical energy back to its origin. As it turned out, I wasn’t the culprit but a naughty imp had been stirring up all the trouble. The constabulary successfully apprehended the imp, cleared my name, and peace was reinstated in the area.

Another intriguing facet of law enforcement in the Runiverse is the intelligence services. These clandestine organizations make use of proficient operatives who excel in information gathering, espionage, and even magical warfare when required. Those are highly trained in stealth magic, alchemical encryption, and divination spells for intelligence procurement.

From my experiences, I have learned that while crime in the Runiverse might be as diverse and unpredictable as the magical energies that saturate the realm, there is an equally varied and adept array of institutions and individuals working tirelessly to resolve them. It’s a system that melds the mystical with the logical, the old with the new, the science with the magic – just like the Runiverse itself.
