Omnipotence

There are different definitions for Omnipotence:

* The ability to do anything non-contradictory. This definition prevents logical contradictions.
* The ability to do anything, this definition leads to logical contradictions.

The problems occur by asking questions like "Could God make a stone so heavy he can no longer lift it?" If he can't do it, then he is not omnipotent because he should be able to create such a heavy stone, if he can do it, then he is not omnipotent, because he can't lift the stone. There are many variations of the problem, for example: Could God create something stronger than himself? The only character that is omnipotent in the Cosmoquest Universe is God, which, even that he is essentially omnipotent by both definitions, but He limited Himself to only use the first definition.

## Characters with this ability

### Omnipotence

The only entity in the Cosmoquest Universe who is truly omnipotent in the sense of the common definition of the word, is God, literally without any weaknesses or limitations of any kind.

### High-Tier Nigh-Omnipotence

High-Tier Nigh-Omnipotence is defined by:

* Being able to use their full power in all Planes of Existence.
* Able to exist and use their full power in Sheol.
* Able to exist and use their full power in God's Throne.
* Able to exist in the Boundless Void.
* Being able to partially bypass the Natural Order.

The beings that are classified in this tier are the Pre-Existential Entities, they meet all the criteria, entities that are the closest to being truly omnipotent, possessing nearly unlimited power that can create conscious beings, new realities, or at least warp them to an unlimited extent. However, by definition, each of them has weaknesses of some kind that prevent them from achieving omnipotence.

### Mid-Tier Nigh-Omnipotence

Mid-Tier Nigh-Omnipotence is defined by:

* Being able to use their full power in all Planes of Existence.
* Able to exist and use their full power in Sheol.
* Able to exist in God's Throne.

These beings are weaker than High-Tier, but are still of considerable power and are respected throughout existence. As far as we know, the beings that fit into this tier are the Outer Gods, Archangels, Archdemons, Horsemen of the Apocalypse, Seven Deadly Sins, Aeons and the Protoangeloi. The Pre-Existential offsprings with mortals, known as Demiurges also classified.

### Lower-Tier Nigh-Omnipotence

Lower-Tier Nigh-Omnipotence is defined by:

* Being able to use their full power in all Planes of Existence.
* Able to exist and use half of their power in Sheol.

These beings are weaker than Mid-Tier, but are still extremely powerful and respected. This level is mostly made up of Mid-Tier offspring, therefore, the entities that generally enter this tier are Arch-Nephilim (Nephilim generated by Archangels), Arch-Cambions (Cambions generated by Archdemons) and Outer Demigods. There are also another entities that are classified, such as the Old Gods and the Archons. At the height of paganism, most of the New Gods could qualify.

### Extremely Powerful

Entities are classified as Extremely Powerful when they:

* Able to use their full in at least two of the three Planes of Existence.
* Able to exist in Sheol.

Beings that are classified here are beings that, although they are weak compared to superior entities, are considered formidable. Pillars of Magic in their full power are classified, in addition, New Gods are also classified, since although they are no longer widely worshiped, they are still strengthened by the psychic energies of the Collective Unconscious that are directed towards them.
