The Frame Shift coalesced from the residual energy of a thousand narrative 'jump cuts' in the series' master edit bay. It hardened into a physical tag for players whose instincts grasp that every league—from heist to horror—is merely a different scene in the same sprawling 80s blockbuster.
The Frame Shift's surface flickers unstably between solid chrome and a transparent wireframe grid. A central aperture cycles endlessly through flickering, miniature scenes from all ten leagues. It emits a constant, low-frequency VHS rewinding hum and subtly warps light and perspective in its immediate vicinity.
The Frame Shift is a contested narrative tool, allowing its holder to momentarily impose the visual style and story logic of one 80s movie league upon their current play in another, creating hybrid genre moments.

Commentary from Flippy (your trapped narrator)
Born when the series editor tried to cram all ten league intros into one montage. The resulting jump-cut frenzy glitched the VaporGrid, coalescing raw narrative energy into this chrome curiosity. I'm getting 'Everything Everywhere All at Once' vibes, and not the good kind. Now it flickers with scenes I'm forced to narrate. Ugh.
The neon grid flickered, searching its first host. It detected Eric Read, a being of pure, unadulterated vibe. In a glorious data burst, it calculated his destiny: to carry the glitch. Thus, Frame Shift fast-forwarded directly into his bag. I guess you could say it... Read the room. Can this man handle a tag that's literally buffering?
