Tiering System

## **Information**

This system will allow you to gauge the strength of characters in order to achieve easier communication in fictional debates. The tiers are organised according to their destructive capacity that they have been stated to do, or have shown to do. These will allow easier and accurate categorization of characters. We strive for accuracy, meaning we will site our sources of education. For your benefit, we will also provide calculations to support the given tiers. Keep in mind that there may be updates, so we advise you to keep in touch with this page.

Take note that higher tiers do not automatically make you win in a versus battle debate. You need to take into account that there are contingencies, which will alter the outcome of the debate such as the character's Speed, Abilities, Passives, Hax, Dimensionality and their Durability. These factors can alter the tide of the battle.

Also keep in mind that the lower human tiers are neglected due to the fact that it is unlikely for you to tier such weak characters.

On Celestial Body based calculations, we use Gravitational Binding Energy, the minimum amount of energy added in order for something to no longer be in a gravitationally bound state. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational\_binding\_energy

**G** being the gravitational constant of the planet, **M** is the mass of the planet and **r** is the radius of the planet. **n** being a polytrope value.https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polytrope

**Joules**, **Tons** and **Foe** are the base SI units used.

1. For the sake of simplicity we tend to keep the number on the smaller side.
2. Here is the conversion of **Joules** and **TNT** in case you require it: The equivalent for 1 Ton of **TNT** is approximately = 1.0×109 calories, or 4.184×109 **Joules**.
3. A **Foe** is a unit of energy equal to 1044 **Joules**.

All of these are credited to **Seraphluci,** Aka **Lustful#6996** and mainly his Wiki staff in **Shinsekai**.

Transcending that which exists beyond all spatial and temporal dimensionality but still is within the confines of the fictional verse as a whole.

### **Tier Z | Boundless:**

* A character that exists beyond the fiction entirely. None of its laws, boundaries and limits affect you permanently.
* Note: Your actions must be able to affect the verse directly. For example, drawing the death of the character will result in the character’s death.

## **Extra Notes**

* Conversion

* Concerning the Large Star and Solar System gap. Considering that some Large Stars like the UY Scuti, which is 1700 times larger than our sun, is also larger than our Solar System and needs more energy to destroy compared to our Solar System. Hence although, Large Star Level is tiered lower than Solar System, Large Star is much stronger than the average Solar System level Character. We suggest that if you were to debate, you come to a conclusion on such Celestial bodies' GBE in order to determine which character is stronger.

* Furthermore, Attack Potency and Destructive Capacity are relatively the same but different. Explicitly speaking, DC is the measurable Destructive Capacity behind the characters attack. AP is the incalcable Attack Potency behind the characters attack determined by how it affects other characters. Usually, Destructive Capacity is the destruction that a character has shown to be able to do while Attack Potency is the ability to damage someone who has the Durability of a certain degree. For example, Sakura damaged Kaguya who was shown to be able to withstand Multi-Continental attacks. Hence, Sakura has Multi-Continental Attack Potency.

* Lastly, It is a common misconception that Fourth Dimensionality (4D) will automatically. give you universal Destructive Capacity. However, a 4D construct is still a 3D spatial one with a 1D temporal dimension added to it. In other words, 3D of space + 1D of time = 4D. Thus, since you are only adding a temporal dimension, it does not make a character universal as temporal dimension does not add mass-energy. Hence, due to the 4D spatial dimensionality being the same as a 3D construct, their destructive capacity still needs to be proven via their destructive feats. Their 4-dimensional existence only gives them higher existence at multiple different coordinates on a timeline on top of the coordinates they also exist on within the 3D space/manifold at each of those points in the timeline. As such, 3D beings cannot fully perceive or interact with their entire existence. AP and dimensionality aren't always 100% connected when it comes to fiction as higher spatial dimensions are impossible to visualize for our 3D brain. As such, we base the AP tier of higher-dimensional beings on the character's feats and what is shown in the narrative.

* Adding on, the Laws of Thermodynamics describe the relationships between thermal energy and other forms of energy and how it affects matter. The second law of thermodynamics is about the quality of energy. It states that as energy is transferred or transformed more of it is wasted. The second law also states there is more natural tendency of any isolated system to be generated into a more distorted state also referred as entropy. This is why Destroying an organized structure is less work than creating an organized structure with its own principles. In simpler terms: Creation > Destruction as it may take you 3 days to create a building but only 1 second to destroy it, thus the creation process will take more energy. Therefore Creation is greater than Destruction, however you tier remains the same. If you created a 4D Time Space the size of classroom, you have output energy more or equivalent to a classroom.

* Note: Most 5D and above beings are Universal or higher as they exist beyond the 4D spacetime continuum and this more often than not leads them to doing something to said spacetime, such as manipulating, creating or destroying it.

* Note: Characters in fiction can be 5D and above, but be building level. 5D and 6D could be 3D of Space and 2D/3D of time respectively and so it's impossible to know which dimension is added lest it's stated.
* Even if we know for a fact the ones added are all spatial dimensions, hypermass and 4D and above spatial constructs are literally impossible to calculate. As such, I use feats we can see and measure to scale their AP. Hence, the character AP/DC still depends on what they have been shown to do.
