Anyone care to explain the Dimensional system?

This topic gives me chills anytime I hear it, it's hard to understand so I'm asking if there is a good page explaining it according to VSBW standards?

Like... how many dimensions are there even? what exactly makes you 4 or 5D, how do you evaluate dimensions in fiction according to the source?

I'm just really lost on this topic :( I know theres a page for it but i'ts full of mathematical stuff I can't even Comprehend :(
 
Fictions generally have to come out and say it, or have explicit references to "Higher states of existence" or seeing lesser beings as flat/fictional. The number of spatial dimensions varies per franchise, and real life theories don't have a consensus. Iirc string theory allows for 11. It's full of mathematical terminology because higher spatial dimensions are a predominantly math related concept irl, so that's what all the explanations for it will be based on. Note that we don't treat them on this wiki exactly how they are treated in irl theoretical mathematics. Got a character or verse in particular you've got a question about?
 
I'm just interested how these dimensions are handled in fiction, like I heard people say goku is 4D or something since he transcended or destroyed time or something like that. I also heard that if you are 4D you're automatically 3-A and I'f you're 5D yore low 2-C or something.

Also how many dimensions do you need to transcend or have, to e hyperversal, high hyperversal?
 
Goku himself is not 4D. However, he has 4-D levels of power via DBS's weird scaling. 4D characters are generally at a minimum High 3-A, though they're usually tier 2. 5D is high 2-A. Hyperversal, or 1-B, is 12 dimensions to any finite number. High 1-B is infinite dimensions. 1-A is to be beyond the very concept entirely, though 1-A is confusing even for veteran members so I'd stay away from that tier if you're still getting to grips with lesser stuff. This page explains the tiers.
 
Hold on... Hyperversal is 12 to any finite number? but how is that different from infinite dimensions? there aren't finite numbers :(

I understand Outerversal is to be beyond the concept of dimensions, but I don't know what high Outerversal has over outerversal.

Also is it true that space time continuum is already 4D? And that destroying time makes you 4D as well?

also this does not seem to work :(

Screenstzzzzz
 
Finite means that it is an actual number. It could be 13, it could be 860 quintillion, as long as it is a real number and not just straight up infinite, it falls into 1-B.

High 1-As are basically characters that would be tier 0s without either a tier 0 already being present, something being comparable to them, or a very minor weakness that precludes it from omnipotence. The absolute minimum would be to transcend a 1-A the way a 1-A transcends an 11-C, but that's usually not enough.

Yeah

Destroying a space time continuum is 4-D by default.

Because if a finite number is given for the amount of dimensions then it very well can't be infinite dimensional.

Look up Dimensional Tiering in the search bar.
 
Just checked it, but I'm still confused on one thing, how do you extract dimensions from fiction?

This guy is HCM, but how would someone reading the source actually know this? I doubt fiction tells you, this guy is 9D
 
Idk about To Aru, but from what I've been told it may be. I know Warhammer has explicit statements of dimension as well.
 
This is hard to process, but thanks for your help Woks.

Don't close this yet, i'm just gonna go sleep
