[edit] General
The Dimension LXXII (72 in Roman numerals) is a multiverse based on an expansion of the M-theory that states each universe consists of multiple dimensions.
[edit] Dimensional Theory
In the D72 theorum, the "reality" that we reside in begins at the number 0 to represent the universe of absolute reality, simply called "Actuality", skipping by 4 spacial dimensions and 4 time-controlling dimensions (which adds up to a total of 8 (compare to a computer bitwise operation)) for each universe that exists within a limitless 1-dimensional array of dimensions. Each universe is identified by the index of it's first dimension in it's array set (with Actuality as an exception, which is always referred to by it's name throughout the storylines), with the 72nd Dimension itself being the 9th element of the infinite-length dimensional array.
[edit] Weird and Unusual Facts
- God in the Dimension LXXII is known to be an actual living being who is cruel yet mildly comical, logical in some sense, and a very heavy marijuana user, as exhibitted by the creation of the platypus.

[edit] Dimension LXXII: The First Story
The first Doom partial conversion of a series, which was started somewhere in mid-2005 under the name RPGHoA: Missions and later renamed to Dimension LXXII: The First Story attempts to tell an important storyline that occurs in this strange dimension about the overcoming of an evil military faction called the REDs (the name being a reference to communism), which hold a strong grip on an unnamed city, which is later identified as New Fork in the story by one of the characters. A group of random people with seemingly random special abilities stand up to this faction, guns blazing, using magic powers beyond all comprehension to face off against what they would ultimately find out is a force of evil greater than that which has ever been encountered before, which threatens to destroy the very planet itself. This group, whom identify themselves as the Faction of Light, decide to risk everything, including putting their own lives on the line, to defeat this force of destruction and restore order to the universe once again.
It currently features complex ZDoom ACS scripting to create a dynamic environment that constantly changes, even between games and between maps, posing unique and unusual situations to the player to be solved in various, sometimes ingenius and creative ways, like the manipulation of time and gravity, deforming of the environment, and using special abilities of characters to reach inaccessible areas or trigger events which often give the player an advantage during battle.
It plans to feature a unique inventory weighting system that allows you to only carry certain items with you depending on what you currently carry within your inventory. The system will also contain additional statistics which can either help or hinder your ability in battle, creating additional challenges to overcome and avoid. A weapon upgrade system will give new, more powerful functionality to your weapons as you use them, giving you more of an advantage to counterbalance this.
