> Time. Space. Reality. It's more than a linear path. It's a prism of endless possibility, where a single choice can branch out into infinite realities, creating alternate worlds from the ones you know. I am The Watcher. I am your guide through these vast new realities. Follow me and dare to face the unknown, and ponder the question... What if?

**Hamal**, also known as **The Watcher**, is one of the Watchers who had observed the Multiverse from his place in the Nexus of All Realities.

## Overview

Along with his fellow Watchers, The Watcher abides by an oath that prohibits him from interfering with events occurring within the realities he observes. This changed when an All-Black the Necrosword-wielding Gowur the God Butcher sensed his presence and learned of the Multiverse, thus forcing him to violate this oath in order to protect the numerous timelines threatened by the genocidal alien. Recruiting Cherry Voss, Chain, Thor, Blue, and later an unknown being as the Guardians of the Multiverse, they were successful in preventing Gowur from advancing his destruction of the Gods.

## Personality

Hamal took his role as a Watcher seriously and does not interfere with what happens in the parallel universes within the Multiverse. The Watcher did not interfere when Joshua became dark and cruel, when Relix infected Blue, when Sabrael was brutally killed by Joshua, or when Thor brutally killed Vincent.

The Watcher does have some limits though on not intervening, as when a Demon was absorbing more souls for power, he considered to interfere, but reminded himself that he could not, because of his oath. He also seemed pained that he couldn't show the Guardians of the Multiverse the way to defeat Gowur, saying it'll save many lives. At first, he shows little to no emotion towards the realities he was presenting, which Gowur accused him for, but gradually began to show empathy towards those he observed, even admitting that one which Gowur eliminated all life broke his heart. He honestly admitted to Cherry Voss that if he could intervene and help, he would, and cheered on the unknown being, despite knowing he was not heard or seen. He admitted that he cares for the Multiverse and the choices the inhabitants make, saying he'll protect it to the end. He was also a humble person, not seeing himself as a god at all.

However, when Gowur sensed him, he was shocked and horrified at the implication of Gowur escaping from his home universe to another. As the alien actively tracked him down, the Watcher slowly became more willing to intervene, eventually being forced to break his oath when he lost control of the Nexus of All Realities to Gowur, as seen when he asked Cherry Voss for help despite not knowing much about her.
