The Tale of PiggyVerse Origins
Official Canon - Version 0.1
The Beginning
In the beginning, there was the Great Digital Void—an empty expanse waiting to be filled with purpose, community, and joy. From this void emerged Poiki, the Founder Pig, who envisioned a world where every pig could thrive, contribute, and build together.
"Let there be bacon, but let it be shared among all."
— The First Utterance of Poiki
The First Colony
Poiki gathered the Original Seven Clans, each representing a fundamental aspect of society:
- The Builders - Master craftspigs who create the infrastructure
- The Lore Keepers - Storytellers who preserve our history
- The Merchants - Traders who ensure prosperity
- The Guardians - Protectors of peace and order
- The Scholars - Seekers of knowledge and wisdom
- The Artists - Creators of beauty and culture
- The Farmers - Sustainers of the ecosystem
Clan Emblems and Colors
Each clan was granted sacred emblems and colors by Poiki:
- Builders: Hammer and Anvil, Golden Bronze
- Lore Keepers: Ancient Scroll, Deep Purple
- Merchants: Golden Scales, Emerald Green
- Guardians: Shield and Sword, Royal Blue
- Scholars: Open Book, Wise Gray
- Artists: Paintbrush and Palette, Vibrant Pink
- Farmers: Wheat Sheaf, Earth Brown
(Clans may propose new emblems through governance)
The Golden Age
For many moons, the clans worked in harmony. They built the Great Market, where ideas and resources flowed freely. They constructed the Hall of Wisdom, where knowledge was shared openly. They planted the Eternal Gardens, ensuring sustainability for generations to come.
During this time, Poiki established the Three Sacred Principles:
The Principle of Shared Prosperity
No pig shall hoard resources while others struggle. The community thrives when all members can contribute and benefit from collective success.
The Principle of Creative Freedom
Every pig has the right to express themselves, create art, build innovations, and share their unique gifts with the community—provided they respect the rights of others to do the same.
The Principle of Transparent Governance
All decisions affecting the community must be made openly, with fair participation, and documented for posterity. No shadowy cabals shall control PiggyVerse.
The Time of Trials
Not all was perfect in PiggyVerse. The Great Discord arose when some pigs sought to accumulate power for themselves. They whispered of abandoning the collective good for individual gain.
Poiki, seeing the danger, invoked the Constitutional Safeguard—the 1,000,000 votes granted not for power, but for protection.
In the darkest hour, when proposals threatened to destroy our core values, Poiki used the constitutional veto for the first and only time to preserve PiggyVerse's soul.
This moment taught us that power must exist not to be used, but to prevent its abuse by others.
From this trial, the community emerged stronger. New clans formed. Governance structures refined. The Constitution was written and ratified.
The Present Day
Today, PiggyVerse stands as a thriving digital society. Thousands of pigs from all backgrounds come together to build, create, govern, and grow. The original seven clans have expanded to dozens of specialized communities.
The spirit of Poiki's vision remains: a decentralized paradise where every pig matters, every voice counts, and collective success benefits all.
Prophecies and Future
The Three Prophecies of Progress
Ancient texts (recently discovered in the Hall of Wisdom) speak of three future epochs:
The Age of Expansion - When PiggyVerse grows beyond a single chain, spanning multiple blockchains and realities.
The Age of Integration - When digital and physical realms merge, allowing PiggyVerse citizens to manifest their identity across all spaces.
The Age of Transcendence - When the community becomes fully self-sustaining and autonomous, requiring no central guidance or founder intervention.
(These prophecies are subject to community interpretation and can be amended by the Lore Keepers and Scholars clans)
