Line 20:
There is, of course, some overlap between these series. In particular, the Dark Kingdom Renegades are prominent personages, especially in the Crystal Tokyo era, and are inevitably visible even in series where they may not play a major part.
The ''Sailor Moon Expanded'' project is sadly long dead. Amazingly, a copy of the home page for the Verse
An archive of ''SME'' stories can also be found [https://archives.eyrie.org/anime/Sailor-Moon/Sailor-Moon-Expanded/ on eyrie.org] if you'd rather not navigate idiosyncratic Web 1.0 site design, but may not include everything.

Line 56:
** Some individual stories within the project were also never finished, such as ''Zeon Genesis Bogosity'', which only exists in a partially-written form with fragmentary notes outlining the majority of its plot.
* [[Defector From Decadence]]: The Dark Kingdom Renegades.
* [[Dimensional Traveler]]: The Dark Kingdom Renegades and various hangers-on, starting with the events of ''Thy Kingdom Come''. Eventually various members begin popping around the multiverse in a mixture of exploration and tourism
* [[Exclusively Evil]]: Subverted. The youma of the Dark Kingdom initially ''appeared'' this way, but as stories were written it became clear that there were clear gradations of "evilness" among them, from [[Complete Monster]]s to some whose "evil" was more an [[Informed Attribute]] than anything else. And then there were the "sports" like the Dark Kingdom Renegades, who were born with a more human sense of morality.
* [[Expanded Universe]]: A rare fan-driven and fan-written example.
Line 75 ⟶ 76:
* [[Magitek]]: Called both "magsci" and "technomagic" in-universe.
* [[Mega Crossover]]: ''SME'' is part of a much larger continuum of stories laid out in [[:File:Crossovers.jpg|this image]].
** Justified (well, as justified as such a thing can be in the fanfic industry): a method of trans-dimensional travel allows characters from the ''Sailor Moon'' universe to travel to other dimensions on the conceit that [[The World as Myth|''every anime and manga ever produced'' has its own separate universe]]. The various Dark Kingdom Renegades seemed to run into this quite often in their early years on Earth, having traveled to the worlds for ''[[Bubblegum Crisis]]'' and ''[[Ranma ½]]'' just for starters, and later to ''[[Urotsukidouji]]'' (aka ''Legend of the Overfiend''), where Titanite encountered said Overfiend. With her disguise device set to her Sailor uniform... [[Squick|and broken]]. Thankfully, the author managed to avoid following the obvious to its conclusion in a manner most awesome. And in an [[Dead Fic|unfinished story]], Titanite finds herself in ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'', and unfamiliar with the series, tries to understand it in terms of the classic [[Humongous Mecha]] shows she's seen in the past.
** To make things doubly interesting, the laws of these various dimensions seem to apply themselves to trans-dimensional visitors over time. Thus, in the Ranmaverse, [[Aloof Big Brother|Calcite]] takes on the mannerisms of a wizened martial arts master, and felinoid Margrave becomes even more [[catgirl]]ish than usual. The Renegades use this to their advantage; as long as they remain in the ''Sailor Moon'' universe and work on behalf of the forces of good, they are nigh indestructible.
* [[Meta Fic]]: ''SME'' has a series of stories which deal with the everyday lives of the various characters. They operate with the conceit that all of the characters, original and fan created, are actors on a vast movie set, with the various authors as the directors. This would lead to a number of instances where segments of "actual" stories would be transcribed, only to veer off-track when a completely unrelated character wanders "on screen" with some actor-related grievance.
