“A timeline, treading in the strings of the past, present and future.”“A timeline, blessed but not restricted by the single rationales, scripts; such a conceptual, transcendent idea that’s much more alive than one, mortal or not, would ever recognise.”

“When Scripters leave their mark of detriment on the Planet, relinquish unnamed moral vices for purity,
they shall abandon their people who continue working on their problems they buried in their wake.”“Greed must be humanity’s most accepted sin.”
“Is greed humanity’s most accepted sin?”
: What happens when a former angmodel, former proclaimed deity of sacrifice, an anomaly, hunter of hackers, a wanted criminal and a ghostmarcher walk into a bar?
That Image Is So Outdated Lol

INTRO .01
At the centre of the universe, a small, small world amongst the black sea of dead sibilating stars and prosperous planets all astir; where death is most valued resides a fascinating society. Their humanistic yet visceral devotion is carved into their knees to bow beneath the weight of the heavens; gods; Scripters of, who have granted them the liberty of naught but a helping hand . . .An opportunity of purification, cleansing and divine redemption.They shall all live around, praise and look towards the Rift of the Axis as an attestation of the Scripters’ existences. As though paying a lonely homage to them, their people named all regions after long-crafted stories of the underworld which still stay true to the present-times.Delicately strung through the creator’s fingertips, she weaves the respawn symbol, Robloxia’s signature symbol of death, birth and reincarnation, that were derived from the Axial Rifts.
Beyond the rifts’ dark webs and within their eyes of the storm are the Spawn’s Point: Robloxia’s True Place of The Dead, and within its branches, Scripter’s Place: Her very first Roblox creation.

ABOUT .02
Carinae Timelines revolves around individual’s and society’s relationship with the Scripterism, the very belief that crafted this established world-order prevalent in Carinae and is colloquially referred to as The Rebirth.
To what desperate extent, would humanity take in order to fulfil their intemperate desires?The Rebirth is described to be the framework for all robloxians' roles that they take living around the Axial Rift. This so-called role that all robloxians are predisposed to at an early age is the role of "moderating the Axial Rift" and "gratifying the Scripters" as they have done the same to them millennia ago in acts of repeated Divine Retribution. In Scripterism, this is done in order to rouse the scripters again for the attainment of a true paradise much akin to what heaven would be as it ostensibly collapsed and was lost as a concept with their sudden inactivity.
“With the washed-out bodies piling up into a spire, it was believed that it would grow indefinitely into a limitless pillar that wore the draping deep red. It would then pierce the vast universe and smile with the stars as their teeth and the planets as their eyes.””But the Heavens itself would eventually collapse in on its own mass; corpses, pride; and die one day. Her very first creation would survive as leftovers—dishes for the scripters’ followers—and would permanently paint The Planet’s only named ocean to praise what it once was, and always is.”“— A graveyard. An isolated graveyard.”
“It will hug her children close until they are ready.”
Carinae Timelines’ main story manifests as a tetralogy split up into four different distinct time periods.
This is divided up in titles of
CTL_I, CTL_II, CTL_III, CTL_IV,HOWEVER, the story focus is CTL III.* I takes place centuries back during one of Carinae’s major historical events: CANOPUS’ OVERHAUL, consequently shaping modern Carinae into the abnormality it is now. It has a focus on an eccentric scientist and philosopher, THE CAT’S CRADLE as she slowly descends to a unstable state from constantly questioning the world around her.* II begins approx. 7 years before III, detailing the events, struggles and achievements of each of the main casts’ lives before they all met, with a much bittersweet “end to a beginning” as the story begins to transition to III.* III follows KEYREAVER a cynical mercenary of Elysion, and a Player, who is on their to meet one of the scripters in person while also having another loose side quest of trying to find possible vessels of other scripters with items or gears left by them.
The initially solitary mission later develops into the group ARGO as they begrudgingly meet more peculiar people along the way which, ”you can blame Madhoney for that fancy-pants name.” - They all proceed to unintentionally stumble upon and consequently deal with (but not entirely solve) problems that arise with each seemingly simple visit to every region in Carinae.
Each chapter is character-driven.* IV # what even happens here bro

NOTES .03
Carinae Timelines is an OCverse (Original Character-verse) based around the game ROBLOX & its universe is set in Robloxia: to clarify, it’s the whole omnipresent (multi) universe!* CTL IS A WORK OF FICTIONAL CONTENT. REFERENCES TO REAL WORLD CONCEPTS ARE MADECTL is my escapist passion project and is very personal to me—while a tribute to myself, other people, and the other parts of me, it also criticises us and the world around us. I have no means to turn it into a bigger thing than it is right now, and I have no active plan to.(It will go through revisions as the story is still W.I.P, please expect tons of retcons.)
CTL was officially created on 23/11/23. Some stories can be traced back to early 2021.Thank you for this journey!
