There are a lot of things that one should and should not do when building up the world of their stories.
One example of a don't is this: don't have character A from universe A be transported to universe B, only to not do anything regarding the fact that character A is from universe A.
Example of what I mean for clarification purposes: Taking Link from Hyrule (The Legend of Zelda) and plopping him in Kanto (Pokémon), only for the fact that he is from a different world to have no impact at all. If there is no impact, you might as well have Link be a character who has always lived in the world of Pokémon.
What examples of a do or/and don't do you guys have?
