worlddlings

Worlddlings is a term coined by author and game designer Scott Reintgen to describe a hypothetical species of small, humanoid creatures that inhabit a parallel universe. The concept was popularized through Reintgen's blog and later expanded in his book "Worlddling: A Guide to the Multiverse."

Worlddlings are typically described as being about the size of a human child, with proportionally larger heads and smaller limbs. They possess the ability to traverse the multiverse, visiting and interacting with different universes and their inhabitants. This ability is facilitated by a device called the Worlddling Gate, which allows them to shift between dimensions.

The Worlddlings are not a single, unified species but rather a collection of diverse cultures and societies spread across the multiverse. Each Worlddling community has its own unique customs, languages, and beliefs, reflecting the diverse environments and experiences they have encountered.

Despite their small size and humble origins, Worlddlings are known for their curiosity, adaptability, and resourcefulness. They often play significant roles in the stories and events of the universes they visit, sometimes even influencing the course of history.

The Worlddlings' existence serves as a reminder of the interconnectedness of the multiverse and the potential for cooperation and understanding among diverse species and cultures. Their adventures and interactions with other beings across the multiverse continue to inspire and captivate readers and fans alike.
