Timeline

A timeline is a stream of events that exist within the space/time continuum that comprise all of history, from its beginning to its end.

In the EMPATH: The Luckiest Smurf story series, the Time Stream is home to an infinite number of timelines, all variations of the central timeline where history has diverged at some point to bring forth an alternate stream of events. Access to the other timelines is restricted to time guardians such as Father Time, Alternis, and Traveler Smurf, the last of which is able to directly travel into an alternate timeline. Other beings who do not have any form of tempero-kinetic abilities can access them through the Wheel Of Alternity, though the restriction is that they cannot make any changes in the alternate timeline they are visiting or else they will be snapped back into their own timeline with access to that particular alternate timeline cut off from them.
