==Major Shared Dariaverses==
 
So far, five shared worlds have had enough writers and works to count as 'major':.
 
'''If you want to read them on PPMB, you'll have to use the [[Paperpusher's_Message_Board#Rosetta_Stone|"Rosetta Stone"]] to get around unicode issues.'''
 
*[[Abruptly Amy]] faked up a spinoff about [[Amy Barksdale]], pinging off the fact she'd only been in two episodes then and given a "Saint Amy" [[fanon]] persona. The central gag at the start was [[Alan Smithee]] created this spinoff with ''no clue'' about the original show. It caught on with the big-name fans of the time like [[C.E. Forman]] and [[Michelle Klein-Haas]], and rapidly expanded into from a fake description into a full fake 'series' - complete with "Outpost Amy" fansite - with Amy as a glamorous FBI agent forced to take refuge in her home town to escape the mob.
Line 33 ⟶ 35:
*[[Lawndale's Finest]], a superhero series by [[NightGoblyn]], became a shared world in March 2010 when [[Jim North]] began writing for it.
*The "punkverse", formed from [[Brian Taylor (author)|Brian Taylor's]] [[Moving Pictures]] and [[Charles RB]]'s [[God Save The Esteem]], was created in August 2010. A sliding timescale has Helen and Jake as 80s punks instead of 60s hippies (and remaining punks in 2010), and Amy as a young sci-fi/fortean fangirl with an obsession with filming everything (who works for Sick, Sad World in the present day).
*"[[Invertedverse]]" is the name of a shared universe created by [[Shiva]] from a short scene that should not be in which the personalities of the characters in the Dariaverse are inverted, ie Daria is obsessed with fashion and popularity, Quinn is a misanthrope, etc, and along with a completely inverted cast.
