New Champion Cycle: 1

Realities rise and fall in the vast entropic vacuum of the void. They always have; and, hopefully, they always will. Time is a tricky concept when dealing with abstracts of this nature, so the when of our story doesn't matter here, so much as the why. Namely, why are there endless miles of seemingly stone corridors that connect all possible worlds?
Someone, at some time, gained access to the very underpinnings of all reality. The great nexus of potentiality stretched out before these beings, and the burden of responsibility was theirs to carry. They shaped the stuff of raw reality woven between disparate worlds; connecting them all and crafting the tunnels of the Mazeworks for their purpose. At the heart of this realm these 'Builders' placed the Keeper, either out of love for creation or need to control, so as to watch for anything that would upset the grand balance and move to stop it. These Builders are gone, but their solemn game remains in play.
Now the Keeper senses the scales of balance warping once again. The previous Cycle is dispersed, dead, or weakened and not able to deal with the coming threats. So, it is decided; a new cycle of Champions is needed. The spark of greatness burns bright, in even the most unlikely of individuals, and these Champions shine like a beacon in the night to those with the eyes to see.
The Keeper reaches it's influence out into those worlds now, sending the very stuff of the maze to collect the new saviors of reality, lest they be claimed by sinister forces. Featureless, four-armed stone men shuffle out of invisible portals in worlds across time, space, and reality. Radiating the same blue glow of the maze, they begin their pursuit, intent on gathering the new Cycle to their ultimate purpose.
