History
The "Crystal Palace" at the Nexus of all Realities (often considered to be within the M'Kraan Crystal, though it is in fact apart from and outside all other realities).
The Panoptichron is a mysterious palace, said to exist outside space and time, from where you can observe and have access to any reality in the Marvel multiverse.
The Panoptichron was somehow found by the Timebreakers and while studying it they accidentally damaged several realities, setting off a chain-reaction. Being pacifists themselves they got the idea to gather heroes from various realities and basically force them to fix the damaged time-lines, and that is how the Exiles was born.
Geography
Panoptichron is 99% ocean. The sky is perpetually in a state of sunrise and sunset, creating pink, purple, and orange lighting across the world. The white sand glows an orangeish brown and the crystal formations that spike out of the turbulant water appear pink. The Crystal Palace at the center of the world also appears pink. It is huge, more than large enough to house the many Exiles that pass through the realm. The castle takes care of its residents as well, offering food and technology seemingly from nowhere and replenishing absolutely anything that the Exiles and Timebroker require.
"The Castle is always where its seeker most wants it to be. In plain sight, yet never seen. This is its nature."

The Timebreakers
The Timebreakers are a race of insect-like beings who came upon the Crystal Palace and attempted to create teams of super-heroes to correct discrepancies in the Multiverse they originally caused, therefore keeping all realities in existence.
The team are told by The Celestials to "beware the Timebroker, he is not what he seems". After this, the Timebroker's behavior becomes increasingly strange. He eventually institutes a point based system where the Exiles were forced to complete dangerous missions in order to earn his favor and 100 points. The only way to stop having to participate in the missions is to earn one hundred points, and choose the option to be freed. The first person to hit the 100 point cap was Kiani. However, instead of releasing her, the Timebroker forced his powers onto her and disappeared, making her the next Timebroker.
The Mistress of Time
Retro Jade, a former student of Xavier's and the wielder of the Time Gem, has claimed Kiani's place as Timebroker. Recently she has been joined by Alter.
The Tallus
Initially the the Exiles are employed by the Timebroker to fix broken realities. The Tallus is a communications device, which is worn by the leader of the group in order to communicate with the Timebroker. Through it he would assign missions to the team and inform them of any changes, etc. It is also used as a means of communication between its wearer and whoever is operating the crystal palace on various missions. It has a slightly different appearance for each wearer.
