The Realmbreaker

= The Realmbreaker =
=== General ===
The Realmbreaker is a nihilism-inducing, eldritch reality bending Paragon Being originating from beyond the world of Hallownest far beyond the stars themselves.
== Appearance ==
He originally takes the form of a titanic humanoid, with butterfly-like wings on their back, a large, seemingly infinite tail in place of their legs, and a gaping hole across the chest, able to consume and erase anything coming into contact with it. His four arms can seemingly transform and change at will, normally tacking the form of tendrils.
== Origin ==
==== The Void and the Null ====
Long before the concept of reality, long before the first worlds filled with life appeared, The Realmbreaker came into existence, a unique being born from the primeval chaos of the beginning, a god upon a godless reality. With nothing to do in this primal Existence, he wandered the void, hoping to find beings like himself, or at least some sort of beast, anything with a mind to keep him company. His efforts, useless. That is, until he came across something marvellous.
He came across the first world. This wasn't much, mind you. Just a small realm filled with strange animals and little beings, the first of many to come. Yet a wonder in the original void. The Realmbreaker took interest in this little world, and stayed around it for millennia, no longer alone. At first, he just watched them grow, evolve, But then, he took upon himself to help them, influencing their evolution, creating great heroes and kingdoms to preach his name, giving birth to the Origin, the first civilization upon Existence. That is, until the Null came along.
Without name or origin, the Null haunts existence since before even the Realmbreaker was created. Just a pure, dark mass of nothingness without mind, consuming and erasing anything upon its way. And the Origin's turn had come. As abruptly as it started, so it ended. The Realmbreaker saw the Null as it was. An aberration. A blight that would tear existence, and all the worlds it came across. The Null was the end of all things. He couldn't let that suffering happen. And so, the Realmbreaker saw his purpose, his meaning. To let all beings to come be free of the Null's suffering. Erase them, spare them. A blind quest that would last aeons upon aeons.
==== Five Veilscourges and an Envoy. ====
He couldn't bring mercy alone, however. No, he wanted his creation to help him. From his emotions and thoughts, came the Veilscourges, abominable beasts of malevolence unmatched, tasked with marking worlds for the Realmbreaker to... well, break. They set off upon their quest to serve their master upon birth. 
And then, from his mind came The Envoy. One could call it a virus. It infected an old beast in the void, and spread his master's will, ending life as known upon countless worlds. A great work for a worthy cause.
==== Stasis and Hallownest. ====
However, something came upon his way. The details aren't many, but it is known at one point in the past, a duel between the Realmbreaker and another Paragon Being known as the Lord of Shades took place. This duel gravely wounded the Realmbreaker, and sent him into a stasis of sort. Not dead, not alive. A great sleep that would last eons upon eons.
And then Hallownest happened.
His Starbringer called upon him from a minor miserable world known as Gran-nest. For the first time in centuries, he was summoned. The Starfall started. There, he faced off against his old enemy again, the Lord of Shades. They fought till the very end, both majorly wounded, the Lord falling to his injuries, and the Realmbreaker being sealed away again.
After some time, the Realmbreaker managed to break free again, only to be kicked out of Hallownest after attempting to end it once again. And so, he would wait, having lost control of his envoy, and having no more contact with Hallownest. This would last until the day of the defeat of the demon known as Apolafsi, the Smiler. The Realmbreaker pierced through the Dream Realm itself and delivered death unto the Dream God and his servant Rundwyre, ending them. No afterlife for them to go to, nothing else than the dark. And he promised the mortals that he would let them be. After all, they posed far too much trouble for him to bother. He had many things to do.
==== Return and Blight ====
A few years after the promise, he would return. The world of Grannest was under a new, undefeatable menace. The God-Blight. He showered the surface with Stars, and broke into Hallownest, delivering death and erasure to its inhabitants. Finally, he projected himself into the world, where he battled Ari the Blighted Ice Dragon. Although easily killing off the beast, the projection was blighted, finally killing itself to prevent being controlled.
And that was the last straw for the actual Realmbreaker.
He came down upon Hallownest, finally showing his true form, as the Shatterer of Strands, an infinite eldritch serpent. With one single beam of pure erasure, approaching the levels of the Null itself, he erased the very threads of Grannest, shattering it, erasing what was left. This was the end of the Proto-Timeline.
But he felt pity. This was an undeserving end for the valiant bugs of Hallownest. In a sudden change of heart, he called upon an ancient god that remade Hallownest in a new image. Without its imperfections. A new era. And the Realmbreaker disappeared, probably to seek more worlds to give mercy to.
== Personality ==
Quite prideful, the Realmbreaker will give anything to continue his eternal work. He is also, sort of nihilist, having decided that the existence is not worth it because of the existence of the Null.
== Abilities ==
The Realmbreaker is capable of erasing nearly anything and everything from existence, semi-shattering any being's very soul and body and leaving them as nothing more than a bunch of essence. The Realmbreaker is also known for having powers of Reality Warping, shapeshifting, and according to some, even time-travel.
== Trivia ==
* The Realmbreaker has a british-like accent.
* He was created in a question of seconds during an rp, and wasn't intended to become a major antagonist.
