The circus is in town! Whether you live in a small town in England, a city built into the trees, a space ship docked on a space station, or good old New York City, somehow there's been made enough room for the big top and a dozen smaller tents, a walk full of games and attractions, and a ticket booth with a smiling attendant ready to take your money to show you a grand time at the greatest little show in the multiverse.

If some of the shows seem just a little off, surely that's just your imagination, or the amazing showmanship of the circus workers. Surely there's nothing really weird going on here.

The Greatest Little Show in the Multiverse is a fantasy panfandom game with mild horror elements set on a traveling circus. Characters can join up of their own volition, can be nabbed from their homes, or can AU into the circus as a long-time carnie.

The circus wagons are variable on the outside, magically cloaked or even shape-shifted to match the technology and culture of the place they visit. Sometimes they're actual wagons, sometimes they're trucks, sometimes they're spaceships, and one memorable time they were whales with structures on their backs. No matter their appearance outside, their insides stay the same.

There are a couple big wagons for the animals, a handful of wagons for props and costumes and the tents, two more for food supplies and kitchens, one shower wagon (with actual plumbing, somehow), and a number of house-wagons for the circus employees. There are four curtained bunks with storage, one bathroom and sink, and a little table with food storage and a hot plate in each.

The wagon assignments are below.
