[Daring Scylla]

Then my character should be a little younger, late teens early twenties, like.
the main point is that the character thinks it's a different world/parallel world with similar continents and such, and doesn't realize it's his own world that he's fluffed up. it's up to you whether scientist realizes his mistake or not.
you can go ahead and work out your character and I'll work out mine, then we can hash out the other problems such as mapping and location.
