The key takeaways are that the multiverse is made up of different universes with varying physics and probabilities, and occasional tears allow people and objects to cross over between universes.

Tears in space-time can allow incompatible things from different universes to interact, like differing technologies or laws of physics, which can have unpleasant effects like inconsistent gravity or objects shrinking and growing. They also allow genre conventions of one universe to exert pressure on things from another, like a wizard affecting a non-magical world.

Infinities are people who have crossed over between universes and can't get back. They have a certain affinity for 'infinity energy' and can open portals between universes. Many Infinities work to close tears and deal with the effects of crossovers, especially hunting rogue Infinities who deliberately cause crossovers.
