Castrovalence

Castrovalence is an international measurement unit that measures the likelihood of Advanced Deviation occuring. While it mainly affects deviation, it may also affect other constants such as Dimensional Stability.
=== What is Advanced Deviation? ===
Advanced deviation is a type of erroneous timeline deviation where the current timeline creates a timeline that resembles a completely different timeline in it's own right. If castrovalence is one castrovel, it indicates that timeline collision is occuring. A common way to represent the concept of castrovalence is the "two trees" diagram (see right.)
=== How is Castrovalence Measured? ===
The castrovel, (symbol: c, abbreviation: cas) is the base unit of advanced deviation in the International System of Units. Castrovalence is the scale of advanced deviation, with one castrovel being maximum deviation. There are 1,000 microvels in a castrovel, and so 10 microvels would represent 0.01 advanced deviation.
Legally; "The castrovel is defined as being as the point in which the ratio of advanced deviations to standard deviations is one to zero." This means that at one castrovel, no standard deviations are occuring whatsoever. Castrovalence therefore is an exponential scale.
