The Tiering System

## Introduction

This is the Tiering scale for viewers who are curious on how powerful the characters in the Nihlicron are. The scale is heavily based off of other tiering scales such as the one from VS Battles Wiki and other similar sites. This scale has been modified to include other higher-dimensional tiers and show the viewer a sense of scale compared to other "verses" in media.

## The Scale

### Tier 11: Infinitesimal

No joule value available. This tier pertains to characters who 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-β: Low Hypoverse level

Characters who 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-δ: Meridian Hypoverse level

Characters who 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-Σ: High Hypoverse level

Characters who 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.

#### 11-Ω: Zenith Hypoverse level

Characters who demonstrate power equivalent to destroying/creating existentially inferior 2-D level constructs of any size. Almost having an effect on a 3-D construct.

### Tier 3: Cosmic

#### 3-α: Nadir Cosmic level

Characters who can significantly affect, create and/ or destroy a universe at least the size of our own, but not infinitely bigger.

#### 3-β: Low Cosmic level

Characters who demonstrate an infinite amount of energy on a 3-D scale, or those who can affect an infinite 3-D area or an infinite number of finite or infinite universes, or more generally any realm of comparable size. Large numbers of infinite 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.

##### 3-β/C: Advanced Universal Level

Characters who are capable of significantly affecting, creating and/or destroying an area of space that is qualitatively larger than an infinitely-sized 3-dimensional space. Common fictional examples of spaces representing such sizes are space-time continuums 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.

##### 3-β/B: Low Multiversal Level

Characters who 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.

#### 3-δ: Meridian Cosmic level

Characters who can significantly affect, create and/or destroy larger multiverses which comprise from 1001 to any higher finite amount of separate space-time continuums.

#### 3-Σ: High Cosmic level

Characters who are capable of significantly affecting, creating and/or destroying a countably infinite number of space-time continuums.

#### 3-Ω: Zenith Cosmic level

Characters who can affect, create and/or destroy the entirety of spaces whose size corresponds to one to two higher levels of infinity greater than a standard universal model. In terms of "dimensional" scale, this can be equated to 5 and 6-dimensional real coordinate spaces (R ^ 5 to R ^ 6)

### Tier 2: Primal

#### 2-α: Nadir Primal level

Characters who 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)

#### 2-β: Low Primal level

Characters who 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)

#### 2-δ: Meridian Primal level

Characters who 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)

#### 2-Σ: High Primal level

Characters who 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.

#### 2-Ω: Zenith Primal level

Characters who functionally transcend the rest of the Tiering System, and stand outside of any extensions of infinite hierarchies and sizes, to varying degrees and magnitudes. In more straightforward terms, this category could be said to be occupied by characters whose size and/or level of power cannot be reached by merely stacking bigger infinities on top of each other.

### Tier 1: Extradimensional

#### 1-α: Nadir Extradimensional level

Characters who can universally affect, create and/or destroy structures and expanses of uncountably infinite dimensions, or which have a size roughly analogous to them, such as uncountably infinite sets of hierarchical layers or planes of existence, most specifically ones whose amount of layers is comparable to the set of all real numbers, and are thus equated to the first uncountably infinite cardinal, ℵ1, for simplicity's sake.

#### 1-β: Low Extradimensional level

Characters who can significantly affect, create and/or destroy realms or states that fully transcend infinitely-layered hierarchies and/or dimensional levels on a conceptual or existential level, normally being portrayed as entirely external abstractions that lie outside of the applications of spatiotemporal dimensionality as a constant defined by physics on any level, even compared to infinite or uncountably infinite dimensions, usually by perceiving them as akin to fiction or something similarly insignificant.

#### 1-δ: Meridian Extradimensional level

Characters who can significantly affect, create and/or destroy realms or states that fully transcend infinitely-layered hierarchies and/or dimensional levels on a conceptual or existential level, normally being portrayed as entirely external abstractions that lie outside of the applications of spatiotemporal dimensionality as a constant defined by physics on any level, even compared to infinite or uncountably infinite dimensions, usually by perceiving them as akin to fiction or something similarly insignificant.

However, do note that a character can qualify for this rating even if their verse does not have an infinitely-layered or equivalent cosmology, as long as it is either stated, shown or left very obvious that the character in question already bypasses the very nature of such structures altogether, in a way that simply "stacking" more of them logically would not allow one to reach their level of power / size.

Mathematically, **1-δ *has its size represented by further uncountably infinite cardinals beyond useful applications of certain measures (ℵ2 and onwards, most specifically) and can be extended unto greater levels of infinity, representing different complexities or qualitative "steps" on an Outerversal scale, in the same way*** *1-β'* and **1-α** are divided.

##### 1-δ/C: Meridian Extradimensional level+

Characters who can affect and create/destroy states or realms which are completely transcendent over infinitely-layered Outerversal hierarchies and any extensions thereof, as well as the framework in which such entities are defined in the first place. Note that simply adding more "layers" to an already infinite **1-δ** hierarchy (or some structure of equivalent size) is not enough to reach this tier, and one must be completely external and unreachable by it in any form.

#### 1-Σ: High Extradimensional level

Nighlipotence - Characters of this tier show power that could be considered "omnipotent" however with minor flaw. Characters below this tier down to Tier 1-α could also be considered Nighlipotent to an extent. Due to the nature of these characters, there is no way to truly pinpoint their power, all we know is that they exist on the borderline of omnipotent.

#### 1-Ω: Zenith Extradimensional level

Omnipotence - All powerful. Characters in this tier possess infinite power in all things possible. They have the ability to manipulate everything that exists or once existed.

### Tier 0: Boundless

Infinipotence - True Infinity. Infinite power in Infinite things. Unlike omnipotence, beings that possess infinipotence can manipulate things that have existed, currently exist, and things that do not yet exist.

### Other Tiers:

#### Unknown:

This tier is given to a character that has not shown enough to put them on the tiering scale but usually will be given a estimated measurement alongside this tier.

This tier also insinuates that it isn't truly known how powerful the character is

#### ???:

This tier is given to a character that has shown rapid shifts in power too often to accurately pinpoint a true scale.

#### TBM:

To Be Measured. This tier is for new characters that haven't had the time to be measured yet. Not that they don't have a tier, we just haven't gotten to them yet.

#### NULL:

Only applied to the Mystvell and its Avatars. This tier is far beyond the normal scale. Characters on this tier are too impossible and illogical to even compare to any other tier.

2. ↑ It should, on the other hand, be kept in mind that merely existing "beyond the concepts of space and time" and similar feats do not necessarily qualify one to bypass into this tier unless the work of fiction in question leaves it very clear that a character also exists beyond all extensions of the concepts which they transcend.
