Sliplikes

Sliplikes are a category of fictional entities or phenomena characterized by their ability to traverse or exist between dimensions or planes of reality. They often exhibit fluid, non-corporeal, or constantly shifting forms, making them difficult to perceive or interact with using conventional means. The term "sliplike" suggests a movement or nature that is not fixed or solid, akin to slipping through a crack or a gap.

These entities are frequently encountered in speculative fiction, particularly in genres such as science fiction, fantasy, and horror. Their abilities can range from simple dimensional phasing to more complex forms of reality manipulation or interdimensional travel. The nature and motivations of sliplikes vary greatly depending on the narrative; they might be perceived as benevolent guides, indifferent observers, or dangerous predators.

The concept of sliplikes taps into human fascination with the unknown and the possibility of realities beyond our own. Their elusive nature often serves as a narrative device to introduce mystery, suspense, or cosmic wonder. While their specific manifestations differ, the core idea remains a being or force that defies the established rules of our perceived reality.
