Introduction

Data worlds are a common world in fiction. As their name implies, they are worlds that are fully digital. While they may look similar to the real world they are not. Often, how a franchise decides to handle data worlds varies depending on the cosmology. Some verses recognize affecting, creating, or destroying a data world as a feat equivalent to destroying our world, but others do not fall under this same idea. If they are the former, we treat them as pocket realities independent from the main universe.

This article will detail how we determine whether or not data feats from a verse can be used as a viable source of feats. Some of the following requirements should be met in order to prove that data worlds can be used as feats. It should be noted that some points greatly outweigh the others when it comes to consideration on whether or not something qualifies.

Data World Requirements

  • The data should be a "physical" place where characters are moving. However, it's important to note that it should be noted as physical not just from the perception of characters within the data. That is not enough evidence to conclude that something is properly a legitimate data world outside of just the beings within the data world. Also, take note that characters who can hop into data would need extra evidence behind them too given the nature of their ability.
    • If residents from a data world can exist outside the data world with their own body from the data world.
  • Concepts such as death should be present as part of it. To clarify, this doesn't mean dying in the data world and dying due to something being connected to one’s mind killing them through a chain reaction. This means if one [a person from our true universe] actually dies in the data world, they are truly dead in general. Some of the sub-points also clarify other things to show this idea.
    • Another concept that implies this is hunger. This would show that bodily necessities such as food are still existent needs in data worlds.
    • If someone takes damage in a data world and it carries back to the physical world, that can be used to show that the damage experienced was actually true too.
  • Whoever or whatever is stating that the data worlds are real places should be a reliable source. For more on how this point works, please refer to our Statements page and evaluate it from there.
  • If a data world character at all shows they’re able to affect the real world.

Data World Contradictions

  • If a character needs to digitally transfer their essence, soul, mind, etcetera from the data world into an object in the real world, or if someone from the real world must do vice versa.
  • If the data world is directly connected to different host systems, such as a computer system, the internet, or more. Do note that if the data world has shown a good portion of the data world requirements then this contradiction can be ultimately bypassed.

Things that do not support the data world requirements

  • Data characters having souls, a consciousness, or mind does not prove it follows our standards. In fiction lower fictional world beings, nonexistent beings, and more can develop a soul, consciousness or body, thus this does not prove that the data is a real physical world but that the soul or consciousness in verse exists in everything even non-physical beings.
  • Characters or data worlds that were once connected to a host system being disconnected and not a part of the internet or original host system does not prove it follows our standards. The unexplainable nature they’re in would either be something the verse would require to go further in depth on, or at best, rate the character as Unknown due to the unexplainable nature of the data world.

Examples of Data Worlds that meet our standards

Addressing some possible misconceptions

  • The same ideas apply to a simulated reality or virtual world.
  • Fictional worlds, wouldn't fall under this as those are Unknown-E no matter the case.
