Orrorsh is the name given the reality which has invaded Indonesia. While it has invading armies, they don't actually seem to be associated with running the cosm, instead they claim (and seem to be sincere) to be protecting the natives from the Horrors who really run the place.

These armies are called the Victorians, as they come from an alternate England that seems to have been locked in Victorian-level technology and culture for a century. They seem to believe that it was a scientist of theirs who accidentally allowed the Horrors to invade our world. This contradicts evidence gathered elsewhere that 'the Gaunt Man' arranged for the simultaneous invasion of our world by half-a-dozen or so realities.

Technology is limited to approximately Victorian levels. Magic is possible in Orrorsh, but while the level of magical energy is not too inferior to Aysle, nearly all magic is contradictory there, except for Orrorshan Occult magic, which invariably involves complex, difficult, and often bloody rituals. The church of the Victorians is known as the Sacellum, and it is a harsh, unforgiving version of Christianity, whose God is distinctly Old Testament in temper.
