Tiering System

==Introduction==
The following is a comprehensive overview of the hierarchical system which this wiki utilizes in order to properly categorize and index fictional characters, entities, and objects based on the scale of their feats, and the varying scopes which they can affect or create/destroy. However, it should always be kept in mind that, although Destructive Capacity and Area of Effect are some of the most primary ways to qualify for a particular tier, they are not the only ones. For instance, harming a character with a certain level of Durability also allows another character to qualify for the corresponding tier.
Furthermore, it should be noted that characters from a higher tier are not necessarily invincible to entities of lower tiers, as certain powers and abilities can potentially bypass the difference in strength entirely, allowing the latter to contend with, or overpower such characters.
It is also important to know that the difference between the lowest and highest bounds of a given tier is extremely variable and can be absolutely massive in scale. Hence, being far stronger than a character that belongs to a certain tier does not necessarily qualify one for a higher rating.
==The Scale==
===Tier 11: Infinitesimal===
No joule value available. This tier pertains to characters or objects that can create/destroy or affect the whole structure of a lower-dimensional universe, or lower layers/levels of reality. Please note that existing as a drawing or being made of data/information is not to be ranked at this tier, as such beings are still 3-dimensional, but on an incredibly small scale.
This tier is broken into the following sub-tiers:
====11-C: Low Hypoverse level====
Characters or objects that demonstrate power equivalent to destroying/creating a 0-D level construct of any size, or three levels of infinity/degrees of reality/fiction transcendence or similar beneath a 3-D reality. This tier also includes characters who are vastly below this level, and all characters beneath this tier’s requirements in any significant way will still be at this tier.
====11-B: Hypoverse level====
Characters or objects that demonstrate power equivalent to destroying/creating an existentially inferior 1-D level construct of any size, or two levels of infinity/degrees of reality/fiction transcendence or similar beneath a 3-D reality.
====11-A: High Hypoverse level====
Characters or objects that demonstrate power equivalent to destroying/creating existentially inferior 2-D level constructs of any size, or 1 level of infinity/degree of reality/fiction transcendence or similar beneath a 3-D reality.
===Tier 10: Human===
====10-C: Below Average Human level====
Characters or objects capable of exerting force comparable to humans who are below the average norm in terms of strength, such as small children or infirm people, as well as smaller animals such as cats and dogs.
====10-B: Human level====
Characters or objects capable of exerting force comparable to that of regular humans, such as teenagers or unathletic adults.
====10-A: Athlete level====
Characters or objects capable of exerting force comparable to that of more athletic humans, such as trained fighters or generally physically fit individuals.
===Tier 9: Superhuman===
====9-C: Street level====
Characters or objects that stand at the threshold of human strength and capabilities, represented by Olympic level athletes or rigorously trained martial artists, as well as larger animals.
It is important to note that, despite being named "Street level", this tier has nothing to do with actually affecting an entire street, with the name being more of a reference to street fighters as portrayed in martial arts movies and the like.
====9-B: Wall level====
Characters or objects that can destroy or significantly damage extremely resistant materials such as stone, metal or steel, as well as similarly resistant parts of constructions such as structural boulders and walls.

Characters or objects capable of destroying rooms or entire small constructions such as houses or more modest buildings.
===Tier 8: Urban===
====8-C: Building level====
Characters or objects that can destroy medium-sized buildings and constructions, such as large factories or large complexes such as supermarkets.
====High 8-C: Large Building level====
Characters or objects that can destroy large buildings such as skyscrapers.
====8-B: City Block level====
Characters or objects that can destroy urban city blocks or equivalent areas of space.
====8-A: Multi-City Block level====
Characters or objects that can destroy multiple urban city blocks or equivalent areas of space.
===Tier 7: Nuclear===

===Tier 3: Cosmic===
This tier is broken into the following sub-tiers:
====3-C: Galaxy level====
Characters or objects capable of creating and/or destroying a galaxy, when the space between celestial bodies is taken into account, as opposed to merely the matter encompassed by them.
====3-B: Multi-Galaxy level====
Characters or objects capable of creating and/or destroy multiple galaxies when the space between celestial objects is taken into account as well.
====3-A: Universe level====
Characters or objects that can create or destroy all celestial bodies within a finite 3-D space at least equivalent in size to the observable universe via an omnidirectional explosion that covers the entire space, alternately create or significantly affect"Significantly affect" is here used as an umbrella term for feats that don't involve direct creation or destruction but are comparable to them in power, such as warping and distorting the entirety of the structure in question, sustaining its existence with energy, merging the structure with another one, etc. a 3-D universe or a pocket dimension of comparable size, which does not involve the destruction and/or creation of space-time.
====High 3-A: High Universe level====
Characters or objects that demonstrate an infinite amount of energy on a 3-D scale, such as creating or destroying infinite mass, or those who can affect an infinite 3-D space. This extends to an infinite number of finite or infinite-sized 3-D universes or pocket dimensions when not accounting for . Large numbers of infinite 3-D universes, unless causally closed from one another by a separate spacetime or existence, only count for a higher level of this tier. Being “infinitely” stronger than this level, unless uncountably so, does not qualify for any higher tier.
===Tier 2: Multiversal===
====Low 2-C: Universe level+====
Characters or objects that are capable of significantly affecting, creating, and/or destroying an area of space qualitatively larger than an infinitely-sized 3-dimensional space. Common fictional examples of spaces representing such sizes are space-time continuums (the entire past, present and future of 3-dimensional space) of a universal scale. However, it can be more generally fulfilled by any 4-dimensional space that is either:
A) Equivalent to a large extra dimensional space. That is, a higher-dimensional "bulk" space which embeds lower-dimensional ones (Such as our universe) as subsets of itself, whose dimensions are not microscopic / compactified.
B) Portrayed as completely transcending lower-dimensional objects and spaces in the setting of a given work of fiction.
====2-C: Low Multiverse level====
Characters or objects that can significantly affect, create and/or destroy small multiverses which can be comprised of several separate space-time continuums ranging anywhere from two to a thousand, or equivalents.
====2-B: Multiverse level====
Characters or objects that can significantly affect, create and/or destroy larger multiverses which comprise from 1001 to any higher finite amount of separate space-time continuums.
====2-A: Multiverse level+====
Characters or objects that are capable of significantly affecting, creating and/or destroying a countably infinite number of separate space-time continuums.
===Tier 1: Extradimensional===
Characters or objects that can significantly affect spaces of qualitatively greater sizes than ordinary universal models and spaces, usually represented in fiction by higher levels or states of existence (Or "levels of infinity", as referred below) which trivialize everything below them into insignificance, normally by perceiving them as akin to fictional constructs or something infinitesimal.
====Low 1-C: Low Complex Multiverse level====
Characters or objects that can universally affect, create and/or destroy spaces whose size corresponds to one to two higher levels of infinity greater than a standard universal model (Low 2-C structures, in plain English.) In terms of "dimensional" scale, this can be equated to 5 and 6-dimensional real coordinate spaces (R ^ 5 to R ^ 6)
====1-C: Complex Multiverse level====
Characters or objects that can universally affect, create and/or destroy spaces whose size corresponds to three to five higher levels of infinity greater than a standard universal model. In terms of "dimensional" scale, this can be equated to 7 and 9-dimensional real coordinate spaces (R ^ 7 to R ^ 9)
====High 1-C: High Complex Multiverse level====
Characters or objects that can universally affect, create and/or destroy spaces whose size corresponds to six to seven higher levels of infinity greater than a standard universal model. In terms of "dimensional" scale, this can be equated to 10 and 11-dimensional real coordinate spaces (R ^ 10 to R ^ 11)
====1-B: Hyperverse level====
Characters or objects that can universally affect, create and/or destroy spaces whose size corresponds from 8 to any higher finite number of levels of infinity above a standard universal model. In terms of "dimensional" size, this can be equated to 12-dimensional real coordinate spaces and up (R ^ 12 and up)
====High 1-B: High Hyperverse level====
Characters or objects that can universally affect, create and/or destroy structures whose size is equivalent to a countably infinite number of qualitative sizes above a universal model, usually represented in fiction by endless hierarchies of layers of existence, each succeeding one completely trivializing the previous into insignificance, or more generally a space with countably infinite dimensions.
* High Hyperverse level+: 
===1-A: Transcendent===
Characters or objects that functionally transcend the rest of the Tiering System. These characters are completely transcendent to even those that have absolute power over a single infinite hierarchy of levels of infinity.
====Low 1-A: Low Outerverse level====
Characters or objects who can create, destroy and/or affect a structure encompassing all dimensionalities, or sets of points of any cardinality whatsoever. Practically speaking, they are equal to the Universe of Sets, or the full breadth of the Type IV Multiverse.
====1-A: Outerverse level====
Characters or objects whose power/magnitude is qualitatively, rather than simply quantitatively, above lesser things. That is to say: Their superiority is strictly tied to their ontology, and so they are not expressible as the union of anything lesser than themselves. A practical example of this are characters who view realities as fiction, exceeding them so much that they are seen as illusory, insubstantial and immaterial.
This is contrasted with things like inaccessible cardinals, which are unreachable by sums of sets smaller than themselves, in quantities smaller than themselves. Thus, even sets as large as those are still composed of things that, individually, are smaller than the whole. Reality, however, is not composed of any amount of fictional things, as its superiority over them is not numerical or quantity-based whatsoever.
This tier can be divided in "layers." For example, a character who sees some dimensioned world as fictional would be considered to be at the "baseline" of this tier. A character who sees that entity as fiction, then, would be a single level above baseline, and so on and so forth. A character who stands infinitely-many layers above the baseline is to receive a "+" modifier next to their tier.
====High 1-A: High Outerverse level====
Characters or objects who exist in a state of "meta-qualitative" superiority. This is to say, they are completely above the "quality" defining lower levels of qualitative superiority, residing in a wholly different hierarchy that operates on higher qualities entirely. For example, if a cosmology has a hierarchy of levels of Reality-Fiction Transcendences, and then a character above it transcends all forms of reality and fiction, being a part of a hierarchy whose mode of superiority functions on something else
Note that, in order to be at this tier, the character must exceed the framework of the lower levels entirely, and not simply be at the top of an existing lower hierarchy.
===Tier 0: Boundless===
Characters or objects who are completely beyond both quantity, quality and meta-quality. In other words, their superiority over lesser things derives from a total lack of any qualities, instead of simply being above some qualities while still operating on higher ones, as High 1-A characters do.
==Notes==
Note 1:
Because the distance between any given number of universes embedded in higher-dimensional / higher-order spaces is currently unknowable, it is impossible to quantify the numerical gap between each one of the subtiers in Tier 2. As such, it is not allowed to upgrade such a character based solely on multipliers. For example, someone twice as strong as a Low 2-C character would still be Low 2-C, and someone infinitely more powerful than a 2-C would not be 2-A. This does not mean that the difference between these tiers is greater than infinite, merely that the difference is unknown.
Note 2:
The term "Hyperverse" comes from two words: "hyper," which is used in mathematics to designate higher-dimensional space, and something extreme, above or beyond the usual level. As well as "verse" as a short for "universe". So it is intended as a description of a superior existence beyond conventional reality.
Similarly, "Hypoverse" is derived from "hypo", which is used as a suffix to mean being "under", "lesser than", or "below" something. Furthermore, it is the literary inverse of "hyper", which makes it a fitting complement to the existing terminology.
Note 3:
Keep in mind that certain tiers do not necessarily correspond to the destruction of their namesakes in any meaningful fashion. This is because the minimum requirements for these tiers are arbitrary values.
Here is a list of the tiers in question:
*9-A: Small Building level (0.005 tons-0.25 tons)
*8-C: Building level (0.25 tons-2 tons)
*High 8-C: Large Building level (2 tons-11 tons)
*8-B: City Block level (11 tons-100 tons)
*8-A: Multi-City Block level (100 tons-1 kiloton)
*Low 7-C: Small Town level (1 kiloton-5.8 kilotons)
*7-C: Town level (5.8 kilotons-100 kilotons)
*High 7-C: Large Town level (100 kilotons-1 megatons)
*Low 7-B: Small City level (1 megatons-6.3 megatons)
*7-A: Mountain level (100 megatons-1 gigaton)
*High 7-A: Large Mountain level (1 gigaton-4.3 gigatons)
*High 6-C: Large Island level (100 gigatons-1 teraton)
*Low 6-B: Small Country level (1 teraton-7 teratons)
*High 6-B: Large Country level (100 teratons-760 teratons)
Tiers between 9-A and 3-B, even those which do correspond with their namesakes, should not be assigned unless there are accepted calculations, multipliers, and/or reliably stated precise Joule values that correspond with those ratings, as many verses can have their own context result in these feats being above or below their namesakes. The exceptions are that the lower borders of 5-B, 4-C, 4-B, 4-A, 3-C, and 3-B can be considered standard calculations for destroying a planet, a star, a solar system, two or more solar systems, a galaxy, and two or more galaxies respectively, and adding those tiers based on those specific feats is allowed.
Note 4:
Note that merging universes/realms does not necessarily warrant a Tier 2 rating, unless said universes/realms are provably separate spacetimes.
