Icewall
𝐑𝐔𝐋𝐄: Any world (no matter how improbable) in a spatiotemporally infinite rule-based random universe is virtually certain to exist (merely occupying a smaller portion of phase space).
𝐂𝐎𝐑𝐎𝐋𝐋𝐀𝐑𝐘: Any world that someone thinks is “cool,” given sufficiently advanced means of production, is virtually certain to be produced.
Icewall is a meta-setting for RPGs and stories; any book/game/TV mash-up might occur on this surreal infinite plane of ice -- superheroes, superscience, psionics and magic, space opera (there is at least one galactic disc); very unpleasant things, people, organizations, conspiracies, and strange occurrences -- contradictions are legitimate; an alien invasion doesn't need to cross light years of space, just a few thousand miles of Antarctic conditions (imagine Trantor attacked by a horde of cold and hungry cavemen). It all stemmed from asking myself "What if...?" one day.

Summary
Shorter even than drabble, we find a prophetic enigma enmeshed with poetic allusion. It could be any time and any place. Who is to say what is truth, and what is illusion?
I read and appreciate (and try to reply to) all of your comments (they are always welcome)!

Summary
Billie Badass is from one of the galaxy's most dangerous and hardy species (though also, punnily enough, rather hearty ) — a Genomorph (a hermaphroditic species halfway between the Gelatinous Blobs of Futurama and the Pleasure GELFs of Red Dwarf; not precisely a Star Trek DS9 Changeling, but similar enough) — though not suicidally stupid enough to go near Humans... until one fateful trip. Now cast away, ze learns from a local — Avery, a Deathworlder — adapts, overcomes, and survives.
When you get to UWP X8779745, you might wish to consult the Traveller UWP charts.
