Anthony Freemont

— Anthony, It's a Good Life

## Summary

**Anthony Fremont** referred to by narration as "**The Monster**" is a young child from Peaksville, Ohio. Although Anthony would appear as a good-natured, simple boy to most, Anthony is, in fact, an extraordinary reality-warper who was capable of destroying and creating as he pleased. Anthony didn't like bad thoughts, in fact, he sent all those who thought badly to the "cornfields", much like he did with everyone who was annoying or those who sang.

**Attack Potency:** **Unknown**. **Below Average level** to **Human level** physically (Physically normal as a 6 and 46 year old, albeit shown to be at least somewhat in shape as an adult). **Unknown** with powers (The Narrator, who is nigh-Omniscient, mentioned that the townsfolk were unsure if Anthony either destroyed the rest of the world, or somehow, removed his village from it. This was backed up by Aunt Amy saying that she missed having cities near the town. Later was described as to making the entire world 'disappear'.. Said by his mother to have taken away the entire world. His daughter mentioned that he removed all the countries. The Narrator implied Anthony could roam the Twilight Zone, a 5-dimensional realm). Ignores durability with his powers.

**Speed:** **Human level** (Physically no more impressive than any other person)

**Stamina:** Unknown

**Intelligence:** A simple-minded child. Otherwise average as an adult.

**Weaknesses:** Is very emotional and very suspicious of other people. He cannot reverse what he did with his Reality Warping.

**Standard Tactics:** Anthony wont harm an individual unless they annoy him or do other bad deeds against him. He has very little patience for other people, so what 'annoys' him can be as simple as singing, watching television, or even just thinking negative thoughts. If someone does this, Anthony will banish them to "The Cornfield" without any mercy or second thoughts. As an adult, Anthony grew more sadistic, using his powers to actively torture people instead of outright killing them.

**Standard Equipment:** None notable

*No comment here. No comment at all. We only wanted to introduce you to one of our very special citizens, little Anthony Freemont, age 6, who lives in a village called Peaksville, in a place that used to be Ohio. And if by some strange chance you should run across him, you had best think only good thoughts. Anything less than that is handled at your own risk. Because if you do meet Anthony, you can be sure of one thing, you have entered "The Twilight Zone."*

*There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call the Twilight Zone.*
