The Department for Parachronotic Research and Retrieval is a Delta Sector subset of the DST, dedicated to carefully analyzing and retrieving useful and interesting material from other timelines without destabilizing the present timeline... Parachronic Researchers, or chrononauts, often come back from their leaps elsewhen with interesting items or records to further Up's catalogue of knowledge, but with bits of their own history missing. The serpentaur in charge of the Specialized Collection of Pararchaeological Artifacts, for instance, has lost all memory of and references to zir name; zie is referred to merely as The Archivist. |

The Department for Parachronotic Research and Retrieval is a Delta Sector subset of the DST, dedicated to carefully analyzing and retrieving useful and interesting material from other timelines (mayhaps the highly deniable warps of Forward and Backward) without destabilizing the present timeline...

Sadly, many of their legends have unhappened, as have many of the dramatis personae. |

<small> (Originally I'd screwed up the acronym and called the Department the DST. *blush*) :Or it could be like the ISO, which is based in Belgium; its real name is French and the words are actually ordered O-S-I. :Oh yeah! I figured Upwarpers to be the sort who'd all want one unified language... but what if Standard is too crazy and ambiguous for their tastes? What if they invented something they liked better? --Amanita Sadly, many of their legends have unhappened, as have many of the dramatis personae. :Perhaps the DTS was the creation of a [Sandford Fleming] type character who established it after having a run-in with a time instability himself... |
