The Darkness (Supernatural)

The Darkness, also known as Amara is one of the three overarching antagonists (alongside God and The Shadow) of the CW series Supernatural. She had a part of corrupting Lucifer.
She serves as one of the two overarching antagonists (alongside Cain) of Season 10, the main antagonist of Season 11 and later makes the return as a supporting character in Season 15 where Billie, the current embodiment of Death, reveals that both God and the Darkness must be gone from existance to save the universe from being destroyed by God. This is because if only one loses its life, all comes to an end. Meanwhile, Amara reveals that she and her brother are twins and their separation caused the Big Bang and the creation of all.
As a human incarnate, it was portrayed by Emily Swallow as a grown woman, Gracyn Shinyei as a prepubescent girl, Yasmeene Ball as a pre-teen, and Samantha Isler as a teenager.
==Powers and Abilities==
*Immortality: According to Death, the Darkness predates everyone and everything, including God Himself. She can neither age, nor be killed, and was never truly alive to begin with. But it's been stated that there is a possibility for her to die as she asked her brother God to kill her.
*Nigh-Omnipotence: Although her full powers are unknown, she successfully battled against her brother, God, and His Archangels for an unknown period, and Death was willingly ensuring for the Mark of Cain to not be broken. Seeing the force it took just to fight her back and imprison her, the Darkness is the most powerful evil force in the Supernatural universe.
*Cosmic Awareness: Being older than God Himself, the Darkness is omniscient, and is continuing to learn about the Universe made by God while she was locked away. However, she can immediately speak the English language.
*Omnipresence (formerly): According to her she was once all there was. One day, she announced the re-establishment of that state.
*Reality Warping: While she conversed with Dean, her smoke form was still expanding, causing immense winds. However, they were completely unaffected by them, indicating that she has tremendous control over the physical Universe. Her power was evident when she turned a water fountain into blood. She can even turn angels to dust with a wave of her hand. She was also able to restore Mary Winchester's body, despite it getting destroyed by Azazel over thirty years ago.

*Flight: The Darkness, in a noncorporeal form, can fly compared to how angels and demons do.
*Indestructibility: As an immortal, the Darkness is the only conscious thing that has the eternal existence.
*Invulnerability: Seeing her ability to stand against God and His Archangels, the Darkness can be presumed to have an immense resilience for physical and supernatural attacks that likely constitutes invincibility.
*Weather Manipulation: As The Darkness made an expansion on Earth, it led strong and powerful winds. The Darkness led a deadly storm psychologically which killed people by being burned to skeletons by the lightning strikes.
*Apporting: She was able to teleport Dean out of his car with not a single word. Later, she brought him from a city to the country side.
*Telekinesis: In the guise of Amara, the Darkness displayed telekinesis. She also made an angel to take his life with his Angel Blade.
*Resurrection: Amara was able to bring Mary Winchester back to life effortlessly which is notable as the latter died for over thirty years.
*Corrupting Affect: The Darkness' presence is a corrupting force to whatever it comes in contact with. It corrupted the Mark of Cain to a curse that would make killing the host impossible, even for Death, an entity that was immensely strong and powerful in his own right. It also corrupted anyone with the Mark into a killer. When released, those who came in contact with the pure form of the Darkness turned into a meaningless killer. Reaper Billie told Sam that he was "unclean" in the biblical sense from being infected by a rabid aside from his actions like his part in killing Death.

*Empathy: The Darkness can feel and influence the humans along with their emotions and soul.
*Super Strenght: The Darkness was easily able to kill a grown man by throwing him with enough force.
*Smiting: Just by raising her hand, The Darkness was able to kill an angel compared to how an Angel Blade has the effect.
*Soul Consumption: The Darkness can suck the souls out of living beings as her own food.
*Necessary existence: As the embodiment of Darkness, she necessarily exists to maintain the balance of the Universe; Light (God) needs Dark, and vice versa. If Amara needs to be killed, the Universe would be utterly destroyed.
*Umbrakinesis: Being the living personification of Darkness, Amara could use the creation and invocation of the dark clouds and even tentacles made out of darkness that powerful enough to fatally wound her Brother.
==Weaknesses==
*High-Tier Entities: God, with the blended strength of the Archangels, was strong enough to tie the Darkness and seal her with a lock.
*The Mark of Cain was the "lock" to the prison that detained the Darkness. As long as a single person bore the Mark, the Darkness shall remain sealed. Having it removed, the Darkness was set free once more.
