Mr. Paradox

Mr. Paradox is a rogue agent who worked for the Time Variance Authority and was placed in charge of overseeing timelines within the Multiverse. Having constructed an unauthorized Time Ripper capable of destroying timelines entirely, Paradox planned to accelerate the destruction of Earth-10005 due to the death of its Anchor Being, Wolverine. He recruited Deadpool and gave him the chance to relocate to Earth-616, but this act backfired heavily when Deadpool learned of Paradox's conspiracy and escaped to different realities. Later, Paradox had Deadpool and an alternate Wolverine pruned to the Void, before they both ultimately returned to Earth-10005 to stop Paradox. Cassandra Nova, having extracted information from Paradox's sleeper agent Pyro, angrily confronted him and decided to destroy all timelines, but her plans were foiled by Deadpool and Wolverine. After the conflict, Paradox was arrested by his former leader B-15 for his defection.
==Biography==
===Early Life===
====Working with the TVA====
Paradox was born as a human on the Sacred Timeline who became a Variant and caused a divergence, causing him to be taken by the Time Variance Authority and have his memory suppressed so that he could become a member of the organization. However, despite initially loving his job at the TVA, when the organization decided to stop pruning timelines, Paradox was given the responsibility of watching all the timelines of the Multiverse, including the Sacred Timeline and Earth-10005, seeing many universes getting slowly destroyed thanks to the death of their anchor beings, with him being also responsible of watching each of those universes slowly wither away. Tired and irritated by the TVA's new direction, Paradox secretly ordered the creation of a Time Ripper in order to accelerate the process, with fellow TVA agents who were also opposed to the new TVA's direction helping him. When his idol, the anchor being of Earth-10005, died, which resulted in his whole timeline starting to unravel, Paradox decided to test the new Time Ripper on his universe, but not before deciding to recruit Deadpool by offering him the chance to join the Sacred Timeline, sending Minutemen to do the job.

==Personality==
Paradox is a middle-management man in the Time Variance Authority who dislikes their new practices to preserve timelines, instead of the old ways of pruning them, which Paradox sees as efficient and a form of mercy killing. This unorthodox belief eventually led Paradox to build an unsanctioned Time Ripper capable of destroying entire timelines, a tool he believed provided closure to timelines which lost their anchor being and started to deteriorate until the entire timeline is destroyed completely albeit within a long time. As Paradox is deeply dissatisfied with the state of the TVA and his position in it, he wishes to overthrow the current TVA management with his version of the Time Ripper (which provides a higher efficiency) and hence establish himself as the new overseer of the timelines. 
Paradox views the natural process of timeline destruction due to the death of anchor beings as slow, and wished to use the Time Ripper to accelerate this process, which he describes as a painless obliteration of the entire universe. He thus saw the work of fixing things back to what he sees fit as his sacred purpose, a responsibility he thinks he alone can take. This self-perceived mission also fuelled his thirst for power, as he tried to use the Time Ripper as a bargain up the ladder of hierarchy in the TVA. He does not care about the countless lives on the timelines, nor does he show any empathy with them over their fate, as shown when he nonchalantly dismissed the deaths of Deadpool’s friends when he tried to convince Deadpool to relocate to Earth-616. Paradox is also a trickster, as he lied to Deadpool about his superiors ordering him to oversee the destruction of his timeline, and later immediately tried to associate Deadpool and Wolverine’s success in stopping Cassandra Nova with himself, stating that he and the duo were friends, in order to avoid arrest by B-15. However, B-15 didn't buy it, nor did she seem surprised to learn that Paradox was the culprit, suggesting that she was familiar with his ways.
Despite his negative qualities, Mr. Paradox seemed to genuinely respect and idolize the Wolverine, who sacrificed himself to save Laura. Despite the respect, Paradox did not hesitate to destroy his timeline for what he viewed of as a greater good. Paradox heavily despised and looked down on another Wolverine, one whom he called “the worst,” just because this Wolverine had let down his entire world. This reflects Paradox's stubborn belief that individuals will not change, and their past actions define their entire life and future.
Paradox's hubris is further exemplified by his attempts to "save" worthy heroes from dying timelines by offering them the opportunity to leave their timelines behind and join Earth-616, and having no sympathy for any that refuse to forsake their timelines and their loved ones. The fact Paradox doesn't acknowledge or respect the feelings and perspectives of these heroes shows that regardless of any admiration he may have for them, genuine or not, he does not sincerely understand them or truly respect the very merits of what makes them heroes in the first place. He regards any that refuse his offer with frustration and contempt and loses whatever "respect" he claimed to have for them before pruning them, condemning them to the Void. In short, Paradox doesn't respect or admire heroes at all, only valuing them if they can be useful to him and go along with his schemes.
