Ephemeral rift accident2/9/2024 ![]() Whatever the reason may be for your being a resident / patient of Arkham Sanitarium, you have no desire to leave (although you travel through the occasional rift from time to time) and have become quite acclimated to the environment. You were kindnapped by an individual known as “Thomas the Kindnapper” (who apparently works for Professor Clemmons).Again, like Neo in the Matrix or any other hero. Almost like the matrix, but not intentionally inspired by the matrix (unconsciously inspired? as with most videos I create: perhaps). Sanctuary is provided in exchange for being experimented upon and serving as a constant and renewable source of energy for the sanitarium itself. Somehow the sanitarium is still standing and provides safety to anyone left living wishing to seek shelter within its walls. In the far distant future there was a war which led to a global apocalypse.However, there have been a few reasons mentioned in certain videos: How you arrived there has been stated and hinted at in certain videos, but in the end, its really up to your imagination. When watching the videos, you are, in most cases, a resident / patient of Arkham Sanitarium. ![]() The Ephemeral Rift Omniverse consists of Arkham Sanitarium (see further below) and its inhabitants where most of the videos and story take place, as well as many other individuals, organizations, and locations such as: The Innsmouth Thrift Shop, The Entity (not the same entity from the video game Dead By Daylight), the New World Order, the Tin Foil Hat Society, the Corrugated Cardboard Confederacy, the Merchant Clones (The Candy Man, The Muffin Man, The Manga Man, etc.), and even characters and situations inspired by other fictional works such as video games, movies, manga, anime, etc. Eventually, as the weeks turned to months, and the months to years, I found myself creating more and more characters, building upon the stories I’ve already told, and eventually ended up with my own little universe full of eccentric, reoccurring characters who primarily live within a place called Arkham Sanitarium. That realization would not happen until years later.īut as I continued to experiment more and more with ASMR, binaural audio, and video production, I began to create some very basic characters and equally basic stories. However, during this time, I wasn’t aware that I was in the early stages of creating my own fictional universe. In 2013 is when the seeds of the ERO finally began to bear fruit, with the one video that pretty much kickstarted the ERO, unbeknownst to me: But in 2012, as I began to slowly gain a firmer foothold on video production, and as I began to get more comfortable and experiment more, the tiny seeds of the very early beginnings of the ERO began to take root in my brain. I never even knew anything about creating videos and editing them. I stumbled into creating the ERO just as I stumbled into almost everything in my life: jobs, family, low ceilings, walls, YouTube, even ASMR videos. I originally went with “Rift World” and “Riftverse”, but ERO just seems better. Oh, and btw: the name ERO was suggested by some of my viewers/subscribers. Therefore, I thought it would be best to try and put most of the important parts of the lore and the universe to writing here, until/if a book/manga/comic/anime/video game/streaming series/movie/play is ever made. Also: I’m not a writer and more of an improv artist.įortunately, most of my videos are not scripted nor story-heavy, and the first ten minutes usually sets the premise and is frontloaded with any pertinent story or lore, with bits and pieces scattered through the rest of the video. I know it’s not the most ideal way to tell a story, but its just how things happened and unfurled. However, because most of the videos are whisper-quiet, long-form, and intended to help people experience ASMR, relaxation and sleep, rather than trying to grab peoples’ attention every 5 seconds, one can easily doze off 10 minutes into a video and miss pieces of the lore or information about certain characters. It’s no different than, say… Marvel’s Cinematic Universe. Unlike most universes that exist in literary form, the lore of the ERO is scattered among the many videos on my channel. You can browse all the videos in the ERO playlist on my channel here: The ERO consists of a wide variety of videos, such as one-on-one ASMR sessions with a Plague Doctor, membership applications with the Tin Foil Hat Society, secret meetings with post-apocalyptic merchant clones in dark voids, and so much more… Who knows, with the way quantum physics works, maybe this is all reality in another universe… Well, a fictional omniverse in this actual universe, at least. The Ephemeral Rift Omniverse, aka ERO, is the name for the fictional universe and its lore that spans across numerous videos on my YouTube channel dating back to 2012, when the seeds were just beginning to sprout.
