{{worktrope}}
Subtrope of [[Trapped in Another World]], but the hero has intimate knowledge of the world he's in... because he's the one that created it, perhaps moreso a variation of [[Pygmalion Plot]]. For this to have conflict, however, not everything is as it appears, he no longer has [[Just for Pun|author...ity]], or he didn't realize the problems he was creating, and is as bound to the rules of the world as those he created. The author might be seen as a god of his own world, and worshiped for it, or hated for the problems he made.
