Christmas Toyland

## The Christmas Toyland

The **Christmas Toyland** was an area of the pocket dimension inside Madame Tarsa's Toybox. Like the other themed areas of the Toybox, it was accessible through a wooden door in the “Toymake's Labyrinth” and was inhabited by sentient toys created by Tarsa.

## Description

As its name suggested, the Christmas Toymand was inhabited by Christmas-related toys, and decorated to match. The Toyland resembled an extremely large living room on Christmas Eve, with a gigantic Christmas tree in the centre, and, at the bottom, a town made of playthings. Enormous wrapped Christmas presents made up the “Giftbox Mountains” that surrounded said town, and there was also a Snapdragon Lake of boiling brandy where living raisins swam like penguins. Arganthone-056 speculated that the latter, and other elements of the Toyland, generated themselves magically to fit the theme of the place, without having been actively crafted by Madame Tarsa herself. (PROSE: *The Time of the Toymaker*)

## History

Around the time of Christmas 2020, the oldest toy in the Labyrinth had taken up residence in the “old dollhouse at the top of the hill” in the Christmas Toyland. This led Juliet-178, Arganthone-056 and Jenny Everywhere, who had been advised by the Frog Mayor to seek her on the off-chance that she would have knowledge of use in restoring the frozen Madame Tarsa to life, to visit the Toyland. There, they boarded the Toyland Railway's train (taking advantage of a comically fortunate, but coincidental, reduction awarded to “copper automatons in the company of dimensionally irregular humans”) and made their way to the dollhouse after enjoying the scenic tour of the Giftbox Mountains. (PROSE: *The Time of the Toymaker*)

In December 2021, when CS-NA asked her for help in learning more about Christmas, Madame Tarsa briefly considered showing him the Toyland before remembering that its inhabitants were busy with their Ribbon Harvest Festival. (PROSE: *The Winter Quests*)
Blue Tide

In Reality Z-25 31-H, **Becky**, alias **Blue Tide**, was one of the Guardians of Angel Falls. Her native language was not English, and was also spoken by PhyreFrost. Like Coil, SilverStar and Hailey Storm, she considered PhyreFrost her mentor.

Alongside many of her other friends, Blue Tide came to wait on the injured Ms. Blitzen after her battle with Kate Five left her bedridden in the medical wing of Guardians HQ. (PROSE: *Angel Falls: Vengeance Sought*)

## Behind the scenes

Blue Tide was created by DeviantArt user Knight3000 as part of the wider, collaborative Angel Falls setting.
Bunny Everyhare (Who Laws the Lawyers?)

## Bunny Everyhare

One experienced **incarnation of Bunny Everyhare** once intervened in the 925th Universe.

## Description

### Physical appearance

This Bunny Everyhare had the typical appearance of a small, “brown-furred funny-animal bunny”, and a “wiry” frame. (PROSE: *Who Laws the Lawyers?*)

### Personality

As typical, this Bunny Everyhare was a playful, mischievous being befitting her appearance as a classic cartoon character, but also displayed the heroic and empathetic side typical of Jenny Everywhere, being happy to help out former enemies once they stopped being a threat, and easily befriending those around her more broadly. (PROSE: *Who Laws the Lawyers?*)

### Powers & abilities

Describing herself as “the third most powerful being in the entire Multiverse”, Bunny Everyhare could travel in and out of the Null at will thanks to wings of Null-mist she could manifest or make vanish as desire. Her powers worked along the classic “rule of funny”, allowing her to pull mallets out of thin air or multiply herself if it was in service to the rules of comedy. (PROSE: *Who Laws the Lawyers?*)

## Biography

This Bunny Everyhare had had many encounters with other versions of herself, other Bunny Nullhares, and also various versions of Jenny Everywere. She once recalled that the first Jenny Everywhere she met successfully pulled the classic “Yes I will”-“No you won't”-“Yes I will”-“Yes you will”-“No I won't” trick on her, something for which she ceased to fall thereafter. She was a long-time, and possibly founding, resident of the “Bunny Town” with Jenny Everywhere helped paradoxically create within the Null as a haven for the various Null bunnies.

Bunny Everyhare once manifested in the 925th Universe, being appalled to see that she was now wearing a Kablamazon uniform to match the local Jenny Everywhere. After introducing herself to the Multidimensional Finders Service crew, she helped them foil a version of Bunny Nullhare who had manifested as Bonham, a realisation of the video game villain of the same name, and gotten himself worked up against the M.F.S. due to them “refusing” to tell him where his fictional archnemesis Benito could be found. After Bonham was subdued, Bunny helped him realise what he truly was, and asked him if he wanted to join Bunny Town. After he declined, confessing that he would rather “take a break for existing” for the time being, Bunny respected her choice and, spreading wings of Null-mist, carried him back into the Null with her. (PROSE: *Who Laws the Lawyers?*)
Cat (Extradimensional Experiments)

In one universe, a “slightly stylised” robotic **cat** served as the librarian of the Neptunian Orbital University.

It was a former Altern SmartPet, repossessed by Altern and modified to give it a new purpose after its owners traded it in for a more cutting-edge iteration. As a Librarian, it had the power of speech and could scan library cards with its tongue. (PROSE: *Extradimensional Experiments*)

## Behind the scenes

* The Altern SmartPet product should not be confused with the prototype robot cat invented by Professor Awesome. (PROSE: *Pit Stop*)
Big sisters

“The **big sisters**” was a term for incarnations of Jenny Everywhere who possessed, or gained, an understanding of reality that put them totally above ordinary, human-level incarnations of Jenny. Even other Jennies could not grasp many of the concepts which the big sisters understood, and most ceased to travel in ordinary three-dimensional universes.

Cha Ni once stated that she was “close” to being one of the big sisters, though she chose not to ascend fully. (PROSE: *How Jenny First Met…*)
Charon

**Charon** was the boatman of the Underworld in Greek mythology, to whom one had to give a special coin to be allowed entry.

He was a real being in the 925th Universe, where Marietta Over-There once gave one of the coins that could be used to pay him to Jenny Over-There so that the two of them could journey into the Underworld to bring back Jenny's cat Grober. (PROSE: *A Very Jenny Over-There Christmas*)
Beauty and the Beast

In the 925th Universe, Dibbsy once created a ***Beauty and the Beast*** film. It featured one of Dibbsy's many non-committal-yet-much-publicised stabs at gay representation in the form of Henribald, who “put his arm over another man for 2.3 seconds”. This was sufficient for the film to later be included in Dibbsy's 2022 Pride Month-themed “*First Gays*” promotional box set. (PROSE: *A Series of Queer Events*)

## Behind the scenes

Given the satire about a brief piece of alleged “gay representation”, the Disney film alluded to is presumably their 2017 live-action version of the fairy tale, as opposed to their earlier, better-known animated version.
Barbelith

According to one account, Jenny Everywhere's true name was **Jennifer Barbelith**. (PROSE: *Wanted for Questioning*) In a number of realities, her name was instead Jenny Corwin, but she was raised on the interdimensional Island of Barbelo. (PROSE: *The Hermetic Garbage of Jenny Everywhere*)

In a universe where Jenny was a fictional character, “Barbelith” was the name of the Internet forum where she was created. It was taken from the comic series *The Invisibles*. (PROSE: *SCP-JEv*)

The *Barbelith Baristas* was a bar in the Bohemian District of Interstitial City. One tourist brochure noted that “many travellers, tourists, and general vagabonds and vagrants, will eventually find themselves at the *Barbelith Baristas*”. One candid photograph of the outside of the building captured a scene featuring versions of Jenny Everywhere, Neeta and Octobriana. (PROSE: *Barbelith Baristas*)

## Behind the scenes

The term “Barbelith” was coined by Grant Morrison as a recurring element of their *The Invisibles* comic series. According to them, the name first came to them in a dream as the name of an alternative dimension or higher plane of existence; in their comics, the name instead refers to a mysterious, sentient red sphere existing on the dark side of the Moon which exists to help human beings connect to a higher, more enlightened plane of reality. What relationship may exist between Jenny's character and Morrison's fictional Barbelith (such as the Barbelith orb itself being an incarnation of Jenny in some way) has never been clarified.

The term's primary connection to Jenny Everywhere, however, is a behind-the-scenes one, as it was chosen as the name of the now-defunct *Barbelith* forums. Perused by many fans of Morrison's work, the “Barbelith Underground” community was the original context of the creation of Jenny Everywhere as a fictional character. The first comic stories to feature the character were created and posted on the website, and are often referred to as “the Barbelith Stories” in the Jenny Everywhere fandom.
Celebite

On one occasion, Tetra-None Hepta-Oct “was handed the legendary Rubix Configuration that imprisoned the **Celebites**, said to be impossible to solve”, and “solved it in seconds” such that “the Celebites hadn’t even finished putting on their chastity gear by the time they were freed”. (PROSE: *Good Crieff - The Tribulations of the Scottish Division*)

## Behind the scenes

The Rubix Configuration is a parody of the Lament Configuration from Clive Barker's *Hellraiser* mythos, a cursed puzzle-box which, when solved, summons the dangerous, erotically-charged demonic beings known as the Cenobites (or Eremites) into the mortal realm.Notably, the canonical Lament Configuration merely opens a doorway to the Cenobites' realm: they are not actually imprisoned *within* it.
Charon (925th Universe)

A **version of Charon** was native to the Underworld of the 925th Universe, as recounted in Greek mythology. One had to give a special coin to him for safe passage in and out of the Underworld. He was widely believed to be a myth, but in her occult studies, Marietta Over-There discovered that Greek mythology was mostly accurate as concerned the afterlife of their universe, and acquired one of the magic coins, which she gifted to her cousin Jenny Over-There on Christmas 2022 so that they could rescue Jenny's cat Grober from the Underworld, thereby repairing Marietta's childhood misdeed of killing Jenny's cat in a misguided attempt to please Nyarlathotep. (PROSE: *A Very Jenny Over-There Christmas*)
Bonangi

Jo-Jo the Congo King leading a group of Bonangi warriors.

In one universe, the **Bonangi** were an independent Congolese tribe ruled by Queen Gwenna, based in a village surrounded by a wooden fence.

They were skilled metal-workers, and, after coming into possession of some gold, created golden kitchenware and intricate decorative statuettes, most of which Gwenna kept for her own private enjoyment. Elder Subbi and her friend Jo-Jo the Congo King, however, both foresaw that the golden artefacts' existence would eventually attract greedy outsiders to the village. Indeed, an outlaw eventually came into possession of a golden statuette depicting Gwenna and, following its trail, came to the jungle. He allied with Ungulla, the leader of a rival tribe, and raided the village on the back of the Iron Beast, capturing Gwenna.

Though initially taken by surprise, Jo-Jo was able to rally the remaining Bonangi warriors to ambush the villains' convoy on the way back to Ungulla's village. After they emerged victorious (with the white outlaw being killed in the commotion), they captured Ungulla, and Gwenna agreed to make him face justice but show mercy to the rest of his tribe to avoid a perpetuation of their feud. She also agreed to get rid of the gold, admitting Jo-Jo was right all along. (COMIC: *Jo-Jo Congo King*)
Chief of the Euclidean Flying Squad

At the time Cupid Fact File #94 was written, the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids were trying, unsuccessfully, to covertly romanticize the **Chief of the Euclidean Flying Squad** in the hope of getting him to stop the Flying Squad from opposing the Crew's operations in the Euclidean Plane. (PROSE: *The Euclidean Plane*)
Chrono-stasis

The 925th Universe's version of the Land of Oz was placed under a state of **chrono-stasis** which meant that no one within its borders actually aged. When trying to make conversation about irrelevant topics, Professor Wogglebug once talked about how “one [unfortunate] consequence of Oz's chrono-stasis, besides all the other problematica that has arisen from this decision, is that [he] was sort of excited by the prospect of the Hammerheads dying one day”; he also discussed the fact that, due to the legacy of the Cardinal Witches, a “whole generation” of Ozians were now unable to correctly tell West from East. (PROSE: *Lovie Dovie Stuff*)

## Behind the scenes

In the canonical *Oz* books, the magical spell which prevents anyone from dying within the borders of the Land of Oz is a more specific enchantment granting immortality to the denizens, instead of being presented as a form of temporal manipulation.
Captain Noranga

**Captain Noranga** was a recurring supporting character in the Kaza's Mate, Gwenna series. He piloted his boat, the **Noranga's Pride**, up and down the Kogana River, occasionally appearing when a story's action came near the water. His vessel was conveniently small for shallow river work and easily handled by one man, with two small cargo cranes and an enclosed bridge. The occasional passengers, and some cargo, were kept on deck, with a small hold and the engine spaces below.

On one occasion he happened to be passing by and was able to tell Kaza and Gwenna about a movie being shot in the jungle near the Bogana village. (COMIC: *The Phantom Ape*)

Some time later he was on the river one night when Kaza was having trouble with the diamond smuggler van Horn. (COMIC: *Up the River*)
Blade of Aderax

The **Blade of Aderax** was among the many artefacts collected by the Chosen over the course of his adventures, and which he had in his possession during his travels with Jenny Everywhere. The Blade seemed to be enchanted to allow the Chosen to duel with it with more cunning than he innately possessed. (GAME: *The Jenny Everywhere Roleplaying Game*)
Bunny Nullhare

“**Bunny Nullhare**” was the natural archnemesis of Bunny Everyhare, and, like her, a class of Null-creatures.

## Nature

Above and beyond the degree to which this was true for Jenny Nowhere, Bunny Nullhare seemed less like a gestalt being with many variations, and more like a role that a variety of otherwise-unrelated beings might fit as part of the pattern of events surrounding a Bunny Everyhare. The only constant was that a Bunny Nullhare would appear as a villainous cartoon bunny of some sort, to oppose Bunny Everyhare in kind, and be wreathed in a variably-noticeable aura of dark Null-mist. (PROSE: *Who Laws the Lawyers?*)

## Biography

### Bonham in the 925th Universe

**See main article: *Bonham (Who Laws the Lawyers?)***
One version of Bunny Nullhare emerged in the 925th Universe, taking on the appearance and persona of the fictional video game villain Bonham, complete with a cartoonish military hovercraft. As such, he appeared as a “portly, mustachioed, blue-furred cartoon hare with beady red eyes, easily nine feet tall”. With no awareness of his true nature as a Null-entity, he was initially fixated on finding and defeating Bonham's canonical enemies, Benito and Giovanni. After the Multidimensional Finders Service proved unhelpful in locating them due to them not actually existing, he attacked the M.F.S. office itself, getting drawn into a battle first with Dynamite Thor and then with Bunny Everyhare, who showed up to fix the situation. After “Bonham” was defeated, he came to his senses, realising who and what he really was and calming down as a result. Everyhare offered him the chance to join Bunny Town, but he elected to fade back into nonexistence for a while, whereupon Everyhare carried him back to the Null. (PROSE: *Who Laws the Lawyers?*)

### Avatar of Nyarlathotep

**See main article: *Nyarlathotep (Who Laws the Lawyers?)***
Concurrently with Jenny Over-There's encounter with Bonham, she received several calls from another universe where the local version of Nyarlathotep was engaged in some kind of conflict with Randolph Carter's descendants Dwain and Karolyn. When he first called Jenny, Nyarlathotep was using a fairly traditional, Nicola Tesla-like human avatar. However, when she next spoke to the Outer God, they had been forced to abandon that body and had hurriedly created another manifestation, this one “a blonde woman wearing a bunny-eared headband and a corset which prominently displayed a black-hole-esque logo with the text ‘The NULL’, like it was the logo for some sort of nightclub”. It took “several hours” for Jenny's better judgement to get the better of Nyarlathotep's bald-faced denial that this body was a Bunny Nullhare. (PROSE: *Who Laws the Lawyers?*)
Captain Stewart

In the 1960s, in one universe, **Captain Stewart** was a member of a secretive international Intelligence Taskforce which had an office in London, with which Jenny Cornelius had contacts. Though he did not know her true nature, he was aware that she had extraordinary powers, and sometimes called her for help in a purely off-the-books capacity. Jenny treated him as a friend and also tried flirting with him with some perseverance, largely to no avail. Jenny speculated that within “ten or twenty years”, Stewart would rise in the ranks and be “a brigadier or something”. (PROSE: *The Folly of Men*)

## Behind the scenes

Captain Stewart is implied to be a younger version of *Doctor Who*'s Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart, who has yet to be granted his iconic rank of “Brigadier” within UNIT, the United Nations Intelligence Taskforce (just “the Intelligence Taskforce” here).

Jenny suggests that Stewart will be a Brigadier in “ten or twenty years” — that is, either in the 1970s or 1980s, taking the setting of *The Folly of Men* to be the 1960s. Her uncertainty is a nod to the infamous “dating controversy” about the present-day of the original run of *Doctor Who* serials featuring the Doctor working with UNIT: these were originally broadcast in the 1970s but with a loose premise of being set in the near future. This intent was gradually lost and, during the actual 1980s, a story was broadcast which outright treated the UNIT stories as having taken place when they were broadcast, i.e. in the 1970s.
Butterfly's Rest

The ***Butterfly’s Rest*** was a hotel popular with many incarnations of Jenny Everywhere. Located in a universe “several quintillion universes to the right,” it stood atop a stone spire resembling a slightly wilted tulip and offered breathtaking views of the waterfalls of Mount Agalanti. The only way up the spire required climbing upwards along a difficult path with “crude stairways and handrails... carved into the stone” for several hundred feet; consequently Jenny Everywhere, who could just shift in, represented a significant fraction of the guests. It was operated by Ms. Vricawfer, whose life had been much quieter before her hotel was overrun by a swarm of shifters. (PROSE: *The Honeymoon of Jenny Everywhere*)
Bartholomew

A leather-bound “King Charles Version” Bible with “only six gospels, omitting **Bartholomew**” was one of the items accumulated in the closet of Jenny's apartment in one universe. When she and Kim went through the closet to sort its contents, they found it again, with Kim noting that they'd been looking for it and shelving it where it belonged in the living room. (PROSE: *Cleaning Day*)

## Behind the scenes

In the real world, the Bible in its conventionally-canonical form only includes four gospels; although Bartholomew is recognised as one of Jesus Christ's apostles, the Gospel of Bartholomew is a lost and conventionally-apocryphal text, rather than something whose omission from a Bible would be noteworthy. The English Bible named after a King is, of course, the King James Version; Charles I succeeded his father James I as King of England.

Notably, although many of the items within the closet in *Cleaning Day* were obviously brought back from interdimensional jaunts, Kim's dialogue suggests that this is a normal Bible for their world, suggesting that aside from its many supernatural elements, the default universe of Scott Sanford's Jenny Everywhere stories is also a minor alternate history relative to our world.
Cleopatra

In Reality Z-25 31-H, **Cleopatra** was the last independent ruler of Egypt descended from Alexander the Great's general Ptolemy. When her rule over Egypt was threatened by Augustus, rather than let him claim the Philosopher's Stone over which she and her ancestors had been watching for generations, she had her handmaid take it down the Nile to safety. (COMIC: *Nula! Naked and Alone!*)

## Behind the scenes

Historically, Octavian had yet to take on the name of “Augustus” by the death of Cleopatra.
Brighton

Jenny Everywhere and the Man With No Name once had drinks at the Pier's End Bar in **Brighton**, England in Dimension 577. (COMIC: *The Legend of Jenny Everywhere*)

## Behind the scenes

The city of Right-On By The Sea, which appeared in some of the earliest Jenny Everywhere stories, including the very first completed Jenny Everywhere comic, was named for and directly based on the real-world Brighton.
Cardiff

Section P, the British government's superhero team in Reality Z-25 31-H, was based in **Cardiff**. (COMIC: *Kate Five vs Symbiote - Chapter 1*) Member Kate Five actually grew up there, having been born at the Prince of Wales Hospital and studied at Cardiff University. (PROSE: *Kate Five Extended Bio*)
Batwoman

A version of **Batwoman** was one of the guests from across the Multiverse brought to the grand opening of the Oasis Springs Nudist Resort by Jenny Everywhere and Jenny Anywhere. She, Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy appeared to be sharing a room. (VIDEO: *Grand Opening*)

## External links

* ***Batwoman* on the *DC Database* Wiki**
Bleeding Rose

In Reality Z-25 31-H, the ***Bleeding Rose*** was a nightclub in the Old Harbor District in Angel Falls. It was owned and operated by the vampire Marcus, and catered to other vampires, but kept on the right side of the authorities, strictly forbidding killing; a human guests only gave a quarter of their blood at most, and willingly.

The Symbiote-possessed Kate Five found herself drawn to the *Bleeding Rose* when she first arrived in Angel Falls, sensing that it was home to hunters and prey. However, Marcus sensed that she was dangerous and, taking her aside, banished her out of the club using his powers before alerting the Guardians to her location. (COMIC: *Kate Five vs Symbiote - Chapter 2*)

   Shortly after Kate's rampage in Angel Falls, she was smuggled out of containment by an unknown party (secretly her twin sister Kimmy). After a few weeks of no news surfacing (as Kate was being held captive and studied by her sister), Nexus Girl and Battle Angel returned to Angel Falls, visiting the *Bleeding Rose* in the hope of picking up her trail after she'd disappeared once again. Spotting them instantly among his patrons, Marcus had Lori tell Battle Angel to speak with him. Meanwhile, the Eros-bonded Nexi, who was unfamiliar with such a seedy environment, was persuaded by two women to join them in a sexual encounter, later being embarrassed at how easily she had been convinced to do so. At any rate, though Marcus initially tried to convince Battle Angel that Kate was a lost cause, he was impressed with Battle Angel's insistence that her friend was still good deep down and merely driven to evil acts by the Symbiote's influence. Deeming her passionate loyalty “refreshing”, he agreed to help the heroines. (COMIC: *Kate Five vs Symbiote - Chapter 4*)
Brain-Washing Machine

**Brain-Washing Machines**, (PROSE: *The Book of Evil*) adapted from the technology of the First Horde, (PROSE: *The Green Gorillas*, *The Strangely-Colored Secret Societies*) were used by the Gang of the Green Gorilla to make their victims believe that all gorillas were naturally green. (PROSE: *The Book of Evil*)
Chekhov's gun

he Collective of the Retconning Crocodiles owned a literal “**Chekhov's gun**” which they took with them during the race for the Frost King's treasure in the mountains of Manik. They eventually cocked and fired the gun during the stand-off between all the treasure-seekers, nicking a Wellsian's tentacle. (PROSE: *The Frost King's Treasure*)

## Behind the scenes

“Chekhov's gun” is a literary term, named for playwright Anthon Chekhov, referring to the idea that an element introduced early on can and should be relied upon to become significant in the plot later on, no matter how trivial it initially seems; the example given was a prop gun hanging on the wall in the set of a play, which audiences can trust will be fired in some momentous fashion before the final act.
Clay Thing

The “**Clay Thing**” was a creation of Madame Tarsa, created by animating a lump of her Clay for the Struggling Artist using a Life Crystal.

A shapeshifting entity, the Clay Thing had the ability to adopt the form of whatever touched it, and to mould itself into more creative shapes inspired by these borrowed forms.

When she became worried about how well Larrikin-1029 and Pessimist-242 were doing in their journey through the regular challenges of her Labyrinth, Tarsa sent the Clay Thing to meet them there. It first transformed into Larrikin after he was the first to touch the lump of clay, then into Pessimist after he too (accidentally) touched it. Having gotten a sense of its foes, the Clay Thing then transformed into a huge, monstrous, hydra-like shape with two heads, one Larrikin-like, the other Pessimist-like. However, before it could eat them, Pessimist's Fog Ship flew to the Cupids' rescue, barreling through the Clay Thing's clay body until it managed to hit its Life Crystal, causing it to melt into inanimate goop. Madame Tarsa was upset at the defeat of the Clay Thing, especially as it had been made from her last batch of Clay for the Struggling Artist and she would now have to import more shiftstones from Swaatch to replenish her stocks. (PROSE: *The Toymaker's Labyrinth*)
Brutus's pan-dimensional speedster

Brutus, one of the last two inhabitants of one planet in the Prime Universe, owned **a pan-dimensional speedster**, as did his counterpart Lilathia, although hers was slightly “sleeker-looking”. He flew the speedster in the Cross-Dimensional Grand Prix he ran against Lilathia, which ended in a tie. After Lilathia gave Marksmanship-522 her speedster to replace Marksmanship's Fog Ship, which she'd destroyed to strong-arm him into serving as an arbiter for the Grand Prix, Brutus's remained the only speedster on their planet. (PROSE: *Marksmanship-522 and the Multi-Dimensional Race*)
Cathode ray

**Cathode rays** were the rays produced by a cathode tube.

In one world, (COMIC: *Magician From Mars…*) while they would have had no effect on a full-blooded Martian, (COMIC: *On Earth*) they had an odd influence on the biology of a Human-Martian hybrid; such an incident gave the Magician from Mars her unique mental powers. (COMIC: *Magician From Mars…*)
Cardinal Witch

In the 925th Universe, the four witches associated with the Land of Oz's four quadrants (North, South, East and West) were known as the **cardinal witches**, (PROSE: *A Series of Queer Events*) sometimes capitalised as **Cardinal Witches**. (PROSE: *Lovie Dovie Stuff*) According to Professor Wogglebug, their rulership somehow caused an “entire generation of Ozians” to become unable to tell East from West. (PROSE: *Lovie Dovie Stuff*)

## Behind the scenes

In October 2023, Callum Phillpott elaborated on the Jenny Everywhere Discord server on the intent behind the joke about the Cardinal Witches having ruined people's ability to distinguish East from West:
Captain (Peace and Quiet)

## The Captain

In the absence of the Ancient One, the **Captain** of the Order of the Automata's Void Ship assumed a leadership role within the Order of the Automata itself.

## Description

### Physical appearance

The leader was a four-armed, “vaguely humanoid robot” with a large antenna on his head, and spoke in a “thin, mechanical voice”.(PROSE: *Peace and Quiet*)

### Personality

Though ultimately benevolent, he was a fairly callous leader, and acted in a rather patronising way towards his underling 21-419. (PROSE: *Peace and Quiet*)

## Biography

When the Salamandyrs invaded Automatia, the Automata initially waited in vain for the prophesied return of the Ancient One, but the Captain eventually gathered those who had not been captured by the Salamandyrs in the Void Ship and retreated to the Void. There, passing over the Interdimensional Tavern, they spotted Marksmanship-522. Owing to the vague resemblance, the Captain assumed him to be the reincarnated Ancient One and took it upon himself to have him beamed into the Ship. When Marksmanship refused to help with the situation, the Captain initiated Protocol BR-L4P S4K then had him teleported onto the Salamandyr Emperor's Void Ship whether he liked it or not.

Fortunately, Marksmanship ended up succeeding, partly by accident, in scaring off the Salamandyrs. Just as the Captain was congratulating him for his victory and asking what they could do to thank him, the *actual* Ancient One appeared, apologising for being late. When Marksmanship asked to be sent home while he and the Captain got themselves caught up to speed, the Captian had 21-419 take command of the Void Ship to fly Marksmanship back to the Tavern, where he recovered his own vehicle. (PROSE: *Peace and Quiet*)

A short time later, he gave the resurrected Ancient One a tour of the modern Automatia to show him how the Order had changed in his absence. As they passed the main square, where a Christmas tree with a blinking star had been set up, the leader left the Ancient One in 21-419's care to go and repair the star, which he had noticed was blinking out of synch with the ambient music. (PROSE: *The Frost King's Treasure*)
Bartleby-853

**Bartleby-853** was a Mark IX Clockwork Cherub and the Prefect of the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids' Department of Scrivening.

On the day of the faceless magician incident, he had been participating in the Cupid Parliament's protracted debate on whose responsibility it was to refill the ink in Stenographer-123, tersely replying that his Department “would prefer not to” when Technophile-963 suggested that it should be their responsibility. The argument was soon cut short by the onslaught of magic rabbits, which forced the Cupids to evacuate the Cupid Parliament building, with their destruction of the typewriter rendering the earlier fight moot anyway. (PROSE: *Magic Trick*)
Block

**Block** was a superhero from Universe Gemini.

Before being killed in the line of duty, Hardcore left behind a number of children: one, Kid Hardcore, was legitimate, while the rest, including Block, Plus, Queensize, Presto and Zed Hudson, were half-siblings by as many different mothers. However, all inherited superpowers from their father, and later attempted to continue his legacy, with the exception of Zed, who preferred a normal life. (COMIC: *Zed Vs. The Backstory*)

Though seemingly slightly annoyed by their presence, Zed invited Presto and Block alongside several friends of his to a meeting at a café so that he could introduce a new friend, the alien girl Neila, to them. (COMIC: *Zed Vs. The Introductions*)

Later, Block insisted on having a serious conversation with Zed about why he always give his other half-siblings the cold shoulder, even though they were both being shot at by masked goons, which was more of a minor inconvenience to them given that they were both bullet-proof. Block was apologetic when Zed admitted that he didn't have anything against them personally but didn't like to be around them because they were a reminder of his father's absence, and also because they'd all had better home lives than Zed. (COMIC: *Zed Vs. Family Ties*)
Blast From The Past (comic story)

## *Blast From The Past*

First page of the story.

***Blast From The Past*** was a bonus to the fourth chapter in the *Journey Into Misery* subseries of the webcomic *The Cosmic Beholder*. Written and drawn by Paul Hoppe, it was released both in webcomic form and in a limited print run.

Although Jenny Everywhere was a recurring character in *The Cosmic Beholder*, she only had a short, non-speaking cameo in this story, which was instead a short flashback revealing the backstory of recurring character Kelly.

## Contents

### Plot

In a flashback to before she was even Jenkins's boss (let alone his reluctant fellow superhero), Kelly is herself a put-upon underling to the tyrannical Mr Grangler — his Junior Deputy Assistant Secretary, to be exact. However, when three student interns assigned to her to oversee turn out to have a major in witchcraft and a minor in supervillainy, she decides to make them use their talents as seers to help her play the stock market and dig up dirt on her colleagues. By the end of the internship period, Grangler is arrested for tax fraud while Kelly's career is on a meteoric rise, and, recognising those to whom she owes it all, she naturally gives Alicia, Jesse and Babs a round of A+s.

### Worldbuilding

CROWBAR (for trees)™

The **CROWBAR [for trees]™** was a creation of Madame Tarsa's, suitable for uprooting trees. In 2021, however, she did not get the chance to fetch it from her Workshop and use it to uproot a Christmas tree, as the Frost King used his telekinetic powers to do so. Tarsa was mildly put out by this. (PROSE: *The Winter Quests*)
Brian

A friend of Scott D. M. Simmons's, credited only as “**Brian**”, was credited for appearing in the 2004 Jenny Everywhere photocomic COMIC: *Zuperiority Complex*. More names were given in those credits than the number of characters in the only finished page of *Zuperiority Complex* ever released; it is unclear if Brian played either of the male characters visible on-panel in the finished page (Zionus and Zix Zofar) or, if not, what role he was slated to play.
Blueberry Squid

To check his identity when he appeared as a ghost in her house on Halloween 2019, Juliet-178 made Pythagoras-858 recite how the two of them had solved the Case of the **Blueberry Squid**: to wit, the Problem-Solvers “simply adjusted the temperature of the squid's flux gels, and it transmorphed itself right back into a Strawberry Squid”. (PROSE: *The Ghosts and the Machine*)
Christmas (real world)

Multiple Jenny Everywhere-related works have been released on the occasion of **Christmas**, usually taking place on the in-universe date and being released on or around the date.

Blue orange

On the morning following their first night together in his house, Lord Thymon and Jenny Everywhere had **blue orange** juice with their breakfast. (PROSE: *Family Business*)

## Behind the scenes

Blue oranges were a genetically-engineered, highly resistant variety of fruit originating in the 1964 Tintin live-action film *Tintin and the Blue Oranges*.
Cheshire Catamaran

The ***Cheshire Catamaran*** was a ship sailed by one version of Jenny Everywhere. While experiencing shifter hangover, a different Jenny briefly saw herself standing on its deck, admiring the stars overhead and the ocean stretching all around her. When seen they were making a trip between Byzantium, Constantinople, and Istanbul, suggesting that the ship, crew, or both were not completely normal. (PROSE: *Morning After*)
China

In one universe, Jenny Everywhere was the daughter of a merchant from **China**. (PROSE: *Preludes and Distractions*)

According to Sid, a particular location where “thick stalks of bamboo” each stood “without uniformity” in “pools of stagnant water” existed simultaneously in China, Japan, and the Gardens of the Gardens of the Strange and Wonderful House “depending on your perspective”. (PROSE: *Our Strange and Wonderful House*: *The Secrets of Our Gardens (Part 2: Accursed Springs)*)
Bradley

**Bradley** was one of Jenny Everywhere's inseparable group of friends in one universe.

## Description

### Personality

Bradley was somewhat awkward in his manner, sometimes not knowing what to say or how to hold himself, but he was loyal to his friends and cool-headed in a crisis. Indeed, much as Jenny Everywhere herself admitted was true of her, Bradley appeared to enjoy the occasional bout of physical violence. (COMIC: *Name's Not Down*) However, he was still prone to philosophical pondering about the necessity or inevitability thereof. (COMIC: *Damn Fine Hostile Takeover*)

### Physical appearance

Bradley was primarily characterised by his extreme lankiness; thin and often hunched, he still towered over his three friends, and had a long face to match, topped by stringy black hair. He had a flat nose, pale skin and full lips. (COMIC: *Name's Not Down*)

## Biography

Bradley once knew someone by the name of Eliza. Once, when drifting out of sleep, Bradley confusedly wondered if it was Eliza nagging at him to wake him up. (COMIC: *Damn Fine Hostile Takeover*)

When Jenny Everywhere suggested she, Bradley, Clea and Lex attend a “queer hip-hop post-glitch electronica and glum'n'bass” party at Club Twart in Right-On By The Sea, Bradley enthusiastically joined the other three in forcing their entry past the close-minded Bouncer. (COMIC: *Name's Not Down*)

He also participated, although somewhat half-heartedly, in the group's assault on the Apollo Coffee H.Q. in London some time later, meant to save *Cuppa Cha Cha Cha*, their favourite indie coffee shop, from being bought out and closed down. (COMIC: *Damn Fine Hostile Takeover*)

Clea, Lex and Bradley were later among the many guests at an interdimensional Christmas party organised by another Jenny Everywhere and attended by many of her counterparts from across the Multiverse and their companions. (COMIC: *Merry Christmas Everywhere*)

A very tall friend of the local Jenny was present on the pier of a “certain seaside town” when a fire broke out. Another world's Jenny, who had been sent by Cha Ni to bring a fire extinguisher at a strategic time, was spotted over the crowd by the tall man, to her displeasure, as she'd been trying to avoid being noticed by anybody who knew the local Jenny, so as to avoid creating inconvenient questions for her. (PROSE: *Paying It Forward*)
Billionaire (The Hermetic Garbage of Jenny Everywhere)

In the Collapsed Cosmos, Jenny Everywhere helped with a raid on the manor of a **billionaire**, in Scotland.

This woman had became rich thanks to the success of a fantasy book series she wrote. Glendalf deemed that, much like her mansion, her book series “might have been charming once but had been built up into a huge, bloated structure that was a disastrous combination of banality and bad taste”. In addition to being deliriously rich, the billionaire was also vocally transphobic.

Glendalf, an actual wizard, believed that she had disgraced the name of magic and alchemy through her bigotry, and wished to get back at her for this; this was the reason he picked her manor as the target of the “adventure” he wished to have with Jenny and some Orcs. In addition to her money, the group had their sights on the Legendary Time Crystal she kept in a vault under her manor, which Jenny believed could be used to restore the Multiverse. After executing most of their heist plan, however, they discovered that Laura Drake had had the same idea and already stolen the Crystal after sneaking into the mansion disguised as one of her robot servants, and killing the billionaire.

The ensuing duel between Jenny and Laura over the Crystal caused further damage to the fabric of reality and eventually caused the entire structure of events related to Jenny's adventure with Glendalf to collapse; when she woke up, she was in a completely different time and place with no evidence that her adventure raiding the billionaire's mansion had been anything more than a dream. (PROSE: *The Hermetic Garbage of Jenny Everywhere*)

## Behind the scenes

The transphobic billionaire writer is heavily implied to be J. K. Rowling.
Bastian

**Bastian** is a fan fiction writer who wrote the trilogy *Strange Encounters*, consisting of *Wednesday and the Weeping Angel*, *Wednesday and the Doctor* and *Wednesday and the Shifter*. The first two cross over *Doctor Who* with the Netflix series *Wednesday*. The third has Jenny Everywhere meet Wednesday. They also wrote *Ages of Memories*, *The Shifter Chronicles* and *The Two Jennys*.
Centennia's father

**Centennia's father** was a humanoid extraterrestrial who came to Reality Z-25 31-H's Earth in 1899 to try to learn about human life. He adopted a human identity as a mysterious but elegant gentleman, somehow acquiring large amounts of money to prop up the charade.

Shortly before he was slated to return home, he met a single American woman at a ball in the Autumn. Wanting to experience it before he departed, he asked her to show him human love (both romantic and carnal), and after dancing all night, they made love in her home. He left in the morning, returning to his planet, leaving her all his human possessions — including a fortune in cash. To the woman's surprise, but not displeasure, she became pregnant following the encounter and gave birth to a child (COMIC: *A Night to Remember*) who became the immortal superheroine, Centennia. (COMIC: *Sausage-Fest!*)

Centennia's mother told the girl about her alien parentage when her powers started to manifest, though she took some time to believe it. (COMIC: *Child of the Stars*)
Chronon Sea

The **Chronon Sea** was the colloquial name of a “poorly-understood ‘layer’ of time” on a Multiversal scale, which was sailed by tachyonic sailing ships. The Sea was connected to the timestreams of all universes containing a form of time. (PROSE: *The Winter Quests*)

Lord Thymon took Jenny Everywhere on a “scenic jaunt along the shore of the Chronon Sea” on their seventh date. (PROSE: *Family Business*)
Cactus Demon

A **Cactus Demon**, being a humanoid covered in bandages with sharp spikes sticking out, was one of the more proactive lost souls lost in a dense universe to which Shiva sent Jenny Everywhere and David — allegedly as punishment, but actually in the hope that he would inspire the lost souls to rise up and save themselves from the decaying universe.

As all the wretched souls could comprehend was pain, they tried to torture their two human visitors, with the Cactus Demon using its spines to hurt David. However, both managed to achieve a zen mind-state which allowed them to harness the powers awarded to them by being from a lighter universe. After they succeeded in evacuating the decaying underworld's population, Shiva began tending to the lost souls, unraveling the Cactus Demon's bandages to tend to the burnt flesh beneath. (COMIC: *Soulless Mate*)
Captain (Magician From Mars…)

## The Captain

In one universe, the **Captain** of the Mars-Earth space-liner aboard which the Magician from Mars first made her way to Earth was a human man with a pointed black beard. When his ship was hit by a meteor, he coordinated his crew's efforts to repair the hull from the outside in space-suit; though keeping a cool façade, he was skeptical of the ship's chances of survival. After the Magician used her powers to instantaneously repair the damage, she convinced the Captain that he and his men had simply had a freak collective hallucination about the accident. (COMIC: *Magician From Mars…*)
Barren Desert of Qlaq

The **Barren Desert of Qlaq** was a hellish location one universe where Jenny Everywhere was in a relationship with a huge non-humanoid alien originating in the same planet. He had to cross the Desert while on his way to the Mountains of Ismalia to bring her back a Raggalisk Egg as a Valentine's Day present. (COMIC: *My Bloody Valentine*)

Buckaroo Banzai

One universe's Jenny Everywhere, prompted to list works of fiction with similarities to her and her other selves' adventures, said that “if you're in a world with the **Buckaroo Banzai** movies, *Across the Eighth Dimension* is pretty typical”. (PROSE: *So You're Jenny Everywhere*)

## Behind the scenes

In the real world, despite plans for a sequel, 1984's *The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension* remained the only completed *Buckaroo Banzai* film, although the franchise would go on to be extended into other media such as novels and comics.

Butterfly

In an unidentified continuity prior to the collapse of the Multiverse, **Butterfly** was a superhero member of the League of Liberation alongside Jenny Everywhere, Glendalf, the Magician from Mars, Ace Harlem, Trashman and Madam Fatal. The League was part of the Sixth International and dedicated to opposing the Sixth Column, a cult which worshipped Stardust the Super-Wizard. (PROSE: *The Hermetic Garbage of Jenny Everywhere*)

## Behind the scenes

Butterfly was the first black American comic-book superheroine, appearing in Issues 1 and 2 of the 1970s comic book *Hell-Rider*. Her civilian name was Marian Michaels. Due to a quirk of the law at time of release, the character of Butterly is in the public domain.
