Category:AU Setting

== AU Settings ==

The setting of AUs using the Noble/Grim—Bright/Dark table.

Bright vs. Dark The Bright/Dark scale is the classical setting of the AU's world; being the main backdrop and mood of the story.

Noble vs. Grim The Noble/Grim scale is the story outcome; where the story leads in terms of mood by the end.

To put it another way, the Setting is a way of mapping the general direction and the progress of the story.

For example, a story that starts in a good place, but over the course of the story slowly drops into despair, that would be Grim Bright. Consult the bullet points below for a view of what each would mean. Neutral in both axis would mean a fall or rise, or a beginning that's not quite happy-go-lucky, but not quite despair-filled.
 * High → High = Noble Bright
 * High → Low = Grim Bright
 * Low → High = Noble Dark
 * Low → Low = Grim Dark
