Universal Level Threats

The Ultimate Evil villains that pose a threat to the entire universe. These characters originate from a story where it is confined to a single universe. These characters pose a threat to all life across the universe. Due to the threat these characters pose, they are often the most heinous character that appears.

Depending on the story told and the work in particular, the universal level can vary in different types of scopes:

• Cosmos: A single universe often consist of billions to potentially trillions of galaxies, which contains billions of stars, and countless planets, where are usually home to innumerable lives from the entire cosmos (e.g. Amon, Mother Brain, Thragg, Qu, Absolute Solver, Aparoid Queen, Evil Entity, Primordial Life Fibre, and Aku)
• Existential Planes: A single universe could also be comprised of overlapping planes of existences such as a spiritual plane, physical plane, or additional planes that makes up the entire universe. This also include a universe that have a defined afterlife plane within the universe that is directly connected to it. Each plane is connected to one another through the governed laws within the single universe. This is different from a multiverse since these planes are all interconnected to form a single universe and that each plane is necessary to upholding the stability and order of that single universe, whereas a multiverse is a collection of multiple universes. In such a case, a TUE villain could threaten the stability of the universe if they pose a threat to one part it (e.g. Emperor Belos, Idea of Evil, Hades, Mind Flayer, Diablo, Kandarian Demon, The Entity (Mr. Hopp's Playhouse), The Ink Demon, Null, Morgoth, and Bellroc).
• Omniverse: A single universe may be the omniverse itself if it is the only universe in existence making some of these characters stand out for posing a threat to all of existence.

Notes[]

• For a threat to be universal:
  1. The setting of the story must include different worlds outside of the main setting of the story (e.g. planets, galaxies, and different areas within the universe itself).
  2. The threat must be either a threat to most of these worlds in the universe enough to cause serious problems to the entire universe or a threat to all worlds within the universe.
  3. It must be made abundantly clear via the villain, context of the story, or both that the villain is a threat to the universe itself than one world or a galaxy.
• Being on one singular physical world that is interconnected to a spiritual world does NOT count since that spiritual world is important towards making up the entirety of that specific world in that setting. Simply originating from a spiritual plane that is interconnected to the physical plane of that specific world does not constitute a threat to the entire universe unless it is explicitly made clear that it the threat encompasses the entire universe. Otherwise, a threat like that is only regulated to the singular world that it takes place in and not the entire universe.
