The Horned Serpent

==Summary==
The Horned Serpent is a colossal malevolent entity lurking beneath America, the greatest among the True Forces of Mass Destruction, and the primary antagonist of the Monument Mythos Analog Horror series. It is an ancient being that has slumbered underneath the Earth for centuries, and the apparent master and origin of the Special Trees, who are all in fact tiny spikes growing out of its unfathomably huge body, stretching across the endless hellscape of the Horned Serpent Metastructure, the dimension colloquially known as Wonderland.
Although now known as the "God of the Underworld", the eldritch horror that is the Horned Serpent was once an ordinary man like anyone else. In fact, its true identity is none other than George Washington, the Founding Father of the United States of America. According to legend, one day Washington attempted to cut down a cherry tree in his farm, only to realize it wasn't a Cherry Tree at all, but a Special Tree, and be dragged down beneath the Earth and into Wonderland, where his body and being was endlessly stretched, distorted and corrupted into an unrecognizable, abominable new form.
Since its apotheosis, the Horned Serpent has lurked beneath America, acting as its true, unseen ruler, subtly influencing the course of history by incursing into the minds of key figures and leaders throughout the centuries, while the myriad Special Trees protruding from its body wreaked chaos across the world, requiring untold sacrifices to remain satiated. A small fragment of the Horned Serpent itself also began to breach the surface, with the Statue of Liberty being built around it to contain its endlessly stretching form.
On February 22, 2022, the Horned Serpent would finally awaken from its slumber, breaking out of the World Egg much like the Advocates for the Division of America always wanted, destroying the Earth and bringing about the end of reality through The Great Division.

Wonderland is stated to ignore the concepts of space and time,Monument Mythos Q&A (1/1/22) with at least the latter being confirmed to not exist in the realm,Mythos / Nixonverse Q&A and George Washington himself being implied to have paradoxically caused his own apotheosis into the Horned Serpent due to its timeless nature), Large Size (Type 8), Higher-Dimensional Existence, Energy Manipulation, Cosmic Awareness, Electricity Manipulation, Dimensional Travel & Portal Creation (Can travel between universes and seemingly send beings between universes and through time), Spatial Manipulation (Wonderland causes "distortions in size and space,"Monument Mythos July Q&A being itself the force responsible for transforming George Washington into the Horned Serpent to begin withLIBERTYLURKERS), Time Travel, Telepathy, Incorporeality (Stated to be abstract in nature, and to exist outside of the material world, only partially intersecting with it through aspects of its being), BFR (The extension of the Horned Serpent that attacked Maize in 1980 caused people and things to continuously phase into themselves and in and out of reality), Dream Manipulation and Mind Manipulation (Can sink into people's dreams and communicate with them, giving them commands that they must follow.
