Okay, let me see if I can help out a bit. I sure hope people involved here
will also read the "Full of Life (Warming Up)" response I gave, because it
can help explain a few things.
Physical Illusions are causing one form of material to manifest itself into a
sense of structure upon a new level of existence. That "material" can be
errant energy (in the case of Chaotic World) or it can be simple filler, in
the case of a Physical Mask. Part of the reason that a Physical Mask, or any
directed Physical Illusion has a limit to variation is that it draws upon the
"reflective existence" of one world and distorts it by overlapping the
"perceived existence" that object may have upon another.
We may all view Granite as a Wendigo for example, with all his new white fur
and fangs, but in some worlds, he is still an Ork. Thus, a Physical Mask can
be drawn upon to shroud his appearance on this one. Remember, the Universe
in all its Diversities is Infinite. What each one of us believes is our own
unique thought or inspiration is likely to be the structure for an entire
universal constant somewhere/when else.
By the way Granite, hows the Food Bill these days?
