Canon Rules

Canon Rules

The official continuity guidelines for the Digi 995 universe.
This page defines what stories, games, and media are considered part of the Digiverse timeline.

What “Canon” Means

In the Digiverse, canon refers to the official storyline and events that are recognized as part of the shared universe continuity.

Canon material directly impacts:
• characters
• factions
• timelines
• world history
• future stories

Non-canon material may be inspired by the Digiverse but does not affect the main narrative.

This page exists to clearly separate the two.

CANON TIERS

Primary Canon

Core story events that define the official timeline.

Includes:
• Main novels
• Major story arcs
• Key character origins

Everything in Primary Canon is considered historical fact within the Digiverse.


Secondary Canon

Side stories and companion experiences that expand the world but are not required to understand the main storyline.

Includes:
• Prequel novels
• Story-connected games
• Companion lore

These events occur within continuity but focus on smaller perspectives.

Companion Media

Atmospheric or supplemental releases that enhance the experience but do not introduce new story events.

Includes:
• Soundtrack albums
• Music releases
• Mood or thematic projects

These support tone and emotion rather than plot.


Non-Canon / Inspired

Content created for gameplay, experimentation, or fun that is not part of the official timeline.

Includes:
• Hypercasual games
• Promotional events
• Alternate gameplay modes
• What-if concepts

These do not affect story continuity.

Multiverse & Variant Policy

The Digiverse contains multiple timelines, alternate realities, and dimensional anomalies.

Variant versions of characters may exist across different worlds. These versions are considered canon only within their respective timelines unless explicitly merged into the primary continuity.

Alternate outcomes do not overwrite the main timeline unless officially stated.

This allows the Digiverse to explore:
• parallel worlds
• fractured realities
• “what-if” scenarios
• experimental arcs

without breaking continuity.

Future & Classified Content

Some Digiverse stories are intentionally withheld until official release.

Unannounced projects, hidden arcs, and upcoming phases may be referenced as:

Classified
Forthcoming
Restricted

Details will be added to the Timeline and Media Order pages once publicly released.

Closing

The Digi 995 universe is an evolving, interconnected story told across books, games, and music.

This page serves as the official guide for what is recognized as part of that shared continuity.

When in doubt, this page defines what counts.
