Tiering System

## Introduction

* **Note:** This page is very important as it holds significant relevance in regards to this wiki.

**Reminder:** **Do not make attempts to use other tier names or additional terms that are not found within this page** or else we will be forced to ask you to edit the page and if such actions are refused, then deleting the page will be of necessity and **there will be no exceptions beyond that point once it happens.**

The following is a comprehensive overview of the hierarchical system which this wiki utilizes in order to properly categorize and index fictional entities based on their physical capabilities and the varying scopes of what they can affect, create, or destroy. Although it should always be kept in mind that while Power Potency and Durability are the primary ways to qualify for a certain tier, they are not the only ones. For instance, harming a character with a certain level of Durability also allows a character to qualify for the corresponding tier in terms of Physical Strength and Power Potency. It is heavily advised that this page is used for guidance when properly creating character profiles and multimedia franchise pages.

Similarly, two characters in the same tier are not necessarily equivalent in certain statistics such as power potency. The energy difference between them can range from negligible to absolutely massive, depending upon whether they are at the low-end or high-end range of their respective tiers as this isn't factored in upon reaching tier 2, which causes multipliers and anything else in relation to it to become irrelevant once they reach that point as the characters are already physically superior to the characters below this tier rating by a boundless (countably or absolute infinite) degree. Certain characters who are at least 1 tier higher than another character does not always give them automatic victory over others who are 1 tier below them, **especially if they are statistically very close to each other in terms of power.**

We must take into consideration the tiering system for inconsistencies, such as outliers and PIS (Plot-Induced Stupidity). So it would be highly recommended if you please analyze the context **carefully** to ensure that they don't contradict, misinterpret, nor overestimate the character's actual potential and physical capabilities of what they can currently do. 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 beyond the high-end of the tier.

## Disclaimer

* Some of the background picture placements for the tier sections here may or may not be 100% accurate.
* Keep in mind that a fictional character existing as a drawing or a digital organism is still **3rd-Dimensional** but on a smaller scale as we can only perceive these characters on flat paper and moving images on a screen in a 2-D perspective.
* A character being physically stronger than another character in the same tier does not qualify for a higher rating other than the high-end of the tier. So, if a character where to be Planetary that is considered to be superior to a character with the same tier, then they would not be assumed to be any higher than Planetary+.
* The only acceptable terms for a boundless number is listed below:
	+ Absolute infinite terms (boundless, illimitable, limitless, measureless, and in some cases, "indefinite")
	+ Ad infinitum/infinitum (countable infinity)
	+ Hyperbole terms with some exceptions depending on how its being used in context (countless, endless, immense, innumerable, interminable, never-ending, numberless, numerous, uncountable, and untold)
	+ Immeasurable
	+ Incalculable
	+ Inestimable
	+ Transfinite numbers
* Absolute Infinity is not to be confused with Countable Infinity as the former is above all existing finite, transfinite, and countably infinite numbers. However, it would **not be considered quantifiable if the term is only being applied for adding or stacking infinities together in any way, shape, or form**
* Most multimedia franchises would classify a timestream or worldline as the "timeline" or a "parallel universe" when mentioned within the context, so always remember to carefully read through the information to ensure that the context itself is using these terms properly when validating any fictional characters who are assumed to be 4th-Dimensional entities within the fictional narratives in which they originate from.
* The context itself **should not later contradict or metaphorically state anything** that will disprove the legitimacy of the evidence that is being provided.
* Despite the contrary to popular belief, the 4th-Dimension is considered to be a temporal dimension and **not an actual spatial dimension as most people believe it to be** but rather as an alternative way of viewing physical change in which 3rd-Dimensional entities cannot be able to perceive or physically interact with. Not to mention that this cannot actually be considered as a higher spatial dimension above space-time due to the fact the universe includes all of space-time, which includes the "totality of existence" that refers to **everything that has existed** (past) and **everything that will exist** (future).
* Absolute Space (the concept of space) by itself **cannot actually be destroyed by physical means** as that only applies to mathematical, extra-dimensional spaces, which are commonly referred to as Dimensions. This is due to the fact that "destroying" the absolute space of a universe is only possible when done indirectly by destroying all matter within the universe, which absolute space requires in order to continue existing and how the former is considered to be a non-physical concept whereas the latter is the physical version of it which has defined spatial boundaries and structure.

* The context itself **should not later contradict or metaphorically state anything** that will disprove the legitimacy of a dimensional hierarchy having a boundless number of spatial dimensions.
* Despite the tier section being named as "Multiversal", any feats that have to do with creating or destroying multiple universes, or in other words, a "multiverse", **would not be considered applicable for this tier rating** unless explained in the context that said multiverse being created is **at least 5th-Dimensional in spatial size**, so keep that in mind.
* Fictional narratives with dimensional hierarchies work differently in regards to identifying the exact number of spatial dimensions they reside in compared to other fictional narratives that are reliant on string theories to justify it instead but still works with the tiering system regardless of these complications and must always be evaluated on a case-by-case basis when specifying them.
* If a character were to be stated in the context that they're a finite or a boundless number of times superior to any dimensional layer in the dimensional hierarchy, especially if it were to have a boundless number of spatial dimensions, it would still be Tier 1 and would not be enough justification to change their current dimensional existence as long as the character does not fully transcend the concepts of absolute time and all mathematical, dimensional spaces that exists altogether within the fictional narrative of where the character in question originated from.
* Being claimed as “omnipotent” or any similar reasoning **is not sufficient justification to reach Tier 0** as characters at this level must transcend tier 1 characters as tier 1 characters would transcend tier 2 and tier 3. Tier 0 has **no true endpoint** and can be extended onto any higher level, spiraling infinitely upwards, which is the main reason why its possible for a fictional narrative to have several layers of existence beyond the dimensional hierarchy and existing in any of these higher layers of reality **will not warrant any tier rating beyond this.**

* Depending on how these concepts are explained, it is not inherently factual that all multimedia franchises follow the same theory, which may lead to these explanations to considered as unreliable when justifying its existence and **that's only the case if no further elaboration in the context is given in order to prove otherwise.**
* It is important to note that these characters are **not omnipotent** as this concept isn't well suited for our tiering system.
* Boundless characters, although immeasurably powerful, **could potentially be rivaled or even surpassed by entities within their fictional narratives and other entities from alternate multimedia franchises.**

## Explanation

Existing in a higher spatial dimension is indeed a valid way to jump onto higher tiers if the extra-dimensional entity in question is either treated as being qualitatively above lower-dimensional ones specifically because of their dimensionality in which it is equated to the size of the entire n-dimensional real coordinate space of which these characters resides in.

While some fictional narratives don't take this idea of how dimensional tiering works inside of fiction seriously, it is known that the idea of absolute infinity inside the concepts based on projective geometry and the hausdorff dimension is that every spatial dimension exceeds the previous one by an absolute infinite degree.

## The Basics of Spatial Dimensions and Dimension-related Theories

According to the concept regarding about dimensions, space, and time are different categories as they naturally refer to absolute space and time. That conception of the world is a 4th-Dimensional space but not the one that was found necessary to describe electromagnetism. The four dimensions of spacetime consist of causal events that are not absolutely defined spatially and temporally, but rather are known relative to the motion of an observer. Minkowski space first approximates the universe without gravity; the pseudo-Riemannian manifolds of general relativity describe spacetime with matter and gravity.

Common Theories regarding Extra Dimensions would include:

* Superstring Theory: Describes ten dimensions (9 spatial dimensions + Time).
* Supergravity and M-Theory: Describes eleven dimensions (10 spatial dimensions + Time) and defines the sum totality of our standard multiverse.
* Function/Vector (linear) space: The state-space of quantum mechanics, which infinite-dimensional and includes wikipedia:Banach space banach and hilbert space. The axiom requirements that confirms their existence is explained here:
	+ Vector Additions of Axioms (Associativity, commutativity, identity elements, and inverse elements of addition)
	+ Scalar Multiplication of Axioms (Compatibility of scalar multiplication with field multiplication, identity element of scalar multiplication, distributivity of scalar multiplication with respect to vector addition, and distributivity of scalar multiplication with respect to field addition)

## **Tier 9 ~ Human Potential**

Fictional characters (such as legendary creatures, monsters, non-humans, non-physical entities, software agents, etc.) & weapons that are capable of exerting the minimal kinetic energy output comparable to the human scale of an adult human in terms of bite force quotient (BFQ), grip strength, physical strength, and toughness respectively. This also refers to characters who can cause significant destruction of resilient physical objects (e.g. boulders & gemstones) and building materials (e.g. blocks, metals, rocks, and wood).

## **Tier 8 ~ Geological Hazard**

Fictional characters (such as legendary creatures, monsters, non-humans, non-physical entities, software agents, etc.) & weapons with the minimal kinetic energy output capable of causing significant destruction to a building or an entire human settlement & inflicting significant harm to comparable characters and resilient materials within this tier through any physical means.

* High-rise buildings
* Houses (i.e. tiny houses, mansions and etc.)
* Multi-story buildings (i.e. Skyscrapers)
* Supermarkets
* Duplexes
* Complexes
* Apartments
* Palaces
* Castles
* Barracks
* Housebarns

Hamlets:
* Number of buildings: Between 10 to 250
* Population: <= 999 people)

Villages:

Towns:
* + Number of buildings: Between 250 to 2,500
	+ Population: Between 1,000 to 20,000 people

	+ Population: >= 10,000,001

## **Tier 7 ~ Environmental Disaster**

Fictional characters (such as legendary creatures, monsters, non-humans, non-physical entities, software agents, etc.) & weapons with the minimal kinetic energy output capable of causing significant destruction to a mountain, an islet (aits/eyots, cays/keys, and river islands), or an island, which would include any the following that is classified as a type of land with comparable size:

* Countries (Technicalities)
* Kingdoms
* Small countries
* Island countries
* Peninsulas
* Provinces
* Sovereign states

This also includes inflicting significant harm to comparable characters and resilient materials within this tier through any physical means.

## **Tier 6 ~ Weapon of Mass Destruction**

Fictional characters (such as legendary creatures, monsters, non-humans, non-physical entities, software agents, etc.) & weapons with the minimal kinetic energy output capable of causing significant destruction to a dwarf planet, the moon, or any astronomical objects & celestial bodies with similar proportions.

This also includes inflicting significant harm to comparable characters and resilient materials within this tier through any physical means. The common methods of destroying any spatial dimensions with a minimal spatial size of a dwarf planet are usually performed through explosions, implosions, or a powerful blast wave of destructive energy.

## **Tier 5 ~ Natural Disaster**

Fictional characters (such as legendary creatures, monsters, non-humans, non-physical entities, software agents, etc.) & weapons with the minimal kinetic energy output capable of causing significant destruction to an exoplanet, terrestrial planet (e.g., the Earth), a giant planet, or any astronomical objects and celestial bodies of similar proportions.

This also includes inflicting significant harm to comparable characters and resilient materials within this tier through any physical means. The common methods of destroying any spatial dimensions with the minimal spatial size of a planet are usually performed through explosions, implosions, or a powerful blast wave of destructive energy.

## **Tier 4 ~ Global Catastrophic Risk**

Fictional characters (such as legendary creatures, monsters, non-humans, non-physical entities, software agents, etc.) & weapons with the minimal kinetic energy output capable of causing significant destruction to a brown dwarf or any astronomical objects and celestial bodies of similar proportions.

This also includes inflicting significant harm to comparable characters and resilient materials within this tier through any physical means. The common methods of destroying any spatial dimensions with the minimal spatial size of a brown dwarf are usually performed through explosions, implosions, or a powerful blast wave of destructive energy.

## **Tier 3 ~ Fundamental Interaction**

Fictional characters (such as legendary creatures, monsters, non-humans, non-physical entities, software agents, etc.) & weapons with the minimal kinetic energy output capable of causing significant destruction to a subdwarf or any astronomical objects and celestial bodies of similar proportions.

This also includes inflicting significant harm to comparable characters and resilient materials within this tier through any physical means. The common methods of destroying any spatial dimensions with the minimal spatial size of a subdwarf are usually performed through explosions, implosions, or a powerful blast wave of destructive energy.

## **Tier 2 ~ Posthuman (Higher Consciousness)**

Fictional characters (such as legendary creatures, monsters, non-humans, non-physical entities, software agents, etc.) & weapons with physical capabilities that allows them to transcend and become unrestricted from all 3rd-Dimensional limitations by an absolute infinite degree and can naturally exist as a 4th-Dimensional entity by becoming one with the Universe around them or possess destructive power that can affect **not only just the contents found within the observable universe**, such as the planets and stars but also the **entirety of 4th-Dimensional space-time** that the universe is composed of.

These types of 4th-Dimensional physical capabilities would include:

* Characters who can become one with space-time by transcending the 3rd-Dimension and its spatial limitations
* Characters that can physically exist as an incarnation of a quilted multiverse ("probability space"), an infinite universe that contains infinite space of a continuous number of quantum events that are all happening for an infinite number of times while also alternating for each possible universe that exists
* Characters who can create or destroy a timestream, commonly represented as the 4th-Dimension and the formation of a continuous line-up of space-time continua that makes up of all the past, present, and future events which exists simultaneously altogether as a singular worldline, also known as a quilted multiverse.

## **Tier 1 ~ Transcendence (Body of Light)**

Fictional characters (such as legendary creatures, monsters, non-humans, non-physical entities, software agents, etc.) & weapons that have 5th-Dimensional physical capabilities that exceeds the boundaries of normal space-time and logically transcend lower dimensions by an absolute infinite degree, 6th-Dimensional characters would exceed that scale also by an absolute infinite number of times and onwards up to infinity. This rating can be reached through common methods that involve being capable of significantly damaging or destroying any 5th-Dimensional constructs and transcending into any higher spatial dimension above 4th-Dimensional space-time, such as the 5th-dimension. In terms of "dimensional" size, this can also be equated between a 5th-Dimensional to a boundless number of real coordinate, dimensional spaces (R5 to boundless).

The spatial dimension in which the character resides in or the number of dimensions the fictional narrative has **is mandatory to be explained on the character profile by providing reliable sources of justification** using any readable text or images that must be visible and easy to read in order for them to legitimately receive the Multiversal tier rating.

## **Tier 0 ~ Absolute (God)**

Fictional characters (such as legendary creatures, monsters, non-humans, non-physical entities, software agents, etc.) who not only are capable of not losing their essence and becoming completely nonexistent without it but also can naturally exist above the infinite-dimensional hierarchy of their fictional narrative in its entirety, including all relevant ideas, such as concepts and identities in relation to them, either by having at least one of the following:

* Platonic form (a state of existence that transcends the limitations of the absolute time (the concept of time) alongside absolute space (the concept of space) due to being atemporal and aspatial in nature)
* Monism (oneness or singleness to a concept, e.g. existence), which involves not being separated to any binary oppositions & dichotomies in terms of having dual concepts

Here are short descriptions to help explain what are platonic forms:

* A Form is aspatial (transcendent to space) and atemporal (transcendent to time).
* In the world of Plato, atemporal means that it does not exist within any time period, rather it provides a formal basis for time.
* It is neither eternal (in the sense of existing forever) nor mortal (of limited duration).
* Forms are aspatial in that they have no spatial dimensions, and thus no orientation in space, nor do they even (like the point) have a location.
