Cascade Cabaret OCT
is an Original Character Tournament taking place in the aforementioned mysterious cabaret, an interdimensional nightclub. People from different worlds arrive from doors sent by the cabaret itself, and they are forced to fight at the tournament. Should they win, they will receive untold glory. Should they lose... so will their world; the cabaret will devour it all. What will the characters do when they take this risk at the Cascade Cabaret?

This OCT provides examples of
- Another Dimension: The Cabaret takes place outside any known reality.
- Bizarrchitecture: The Cabaret's interior is noted to have corridors that twist 360 degrees and doors in the catwalks that exit to the floor thousands of feet below, among other things.
- Crapsaccharine World: The Cabaret is colorful, but hides a sinister underbelly
- Escape from the Crazy Place: Most contestants' goal is to escape and travel back to their home dimension.
- Eldritch Location: Go through the Cool Gate to a new Amazing Technicolor Battlefield to find Reality Is Out to Lunch in a space outside of any reality.
- Genius Loci: The cabaret itself. Which can also devour a losing contestant's world if this happens.
- Inn Between the Worlds: The Cabaret is not part of any one dimension, and once you enter you never know where you'll end up if you leave without winning the contest.
- Lured In To A Trap: The door appears in various locations to snare unwary "performers" for the show
- More than Three Dimensions: The Cabaret has elements of this; only Ringo seems to full understand how it works
- Order Versus Chaos: The judges exemplify this. Ana embodies order to an obsessive degree, while Ringo is dangerously chaotic. Fittingly, they seem to despise and torment each other, though they work together for the good of the Cabaret.
- Purple Is Powerful: Most of the cabaret's palette is purple.
- Recursive Reality: A lot of the halls lead back into themselves at impossible angles, and a false outdoor area that has buildings that lead back into the Cabaret.
- Weird Moon: The moon that circles around the cabaret is a mechanical one.
- You Can't Go Home Again: Not only are current contestants unable to return home without winning, losers are bound to the Cabaret as servants and can never leave.
