GOLB

**GOLB,**also known as the **Crimson God** is an ancient malevolent being that is the embodiment of discord. He is considered a powerful force of nature and has destroyed many worlds. His true form unknown to all, forever remaining an enigma and some considering him 'evil' itself.

## Appearance

GOLB has a massive muscular red body and a cubic head topped with a pyramid with the bottom half fraying upward. He has four round yellow eyes with green pupils, with the two eyes on top slightly larger than the two below. Up close GOLB has cracks around his eyes and mouth. He has a forked tongue that is large and purple. His hands have three fingers and his feet have two toes and one dewclaw. He has orange-yellow talons on his fingers and toes.

## Personality

Originally GOLB didn't have one. While many who know of GOLB consider him evil, GOLB doesn't see himself that way. Being simply a force of nature and nothing more, though does find dissatisfaction with Order, and actually caused and manipulated certain events that would end the first universe.

One day though, in another timeline, a young woman would force her way into his being, making him 'feel' and caused him to be kicked out of reality. This made him angry as he now comprehends emotions which included that very anger. Vowing to bring terror to the one who did this.

## Biography

### Previous Timeline

GOLB lives in an empty space, and is considered to be the oldest thing in Adventure Time. At one point, humans somehow got his 'breath' to make weapons which ruined their world.

He is first seen briefly by Finn when the human dies inside the Pillow World, and passes by him as GOLB is inside an unknown realm.

He is mentioned later in inside Magic Man's mind, where Betty witnesses a memory of him and Grob Gob Glob Grod discussing GOLB at an unknown date in the past. It is revealed that GOLB attacked Mars at some point and "took" Magic Man's wife, Margles. Grob Gob Glob Grod believes that GOLB will return and Magic Man agrees, using the threat of GOLB as a pretext for building a security system on Mars that takes the shape of Margles. Later, Magic Man changes his mind, claiming that Grob Gob Glob Grod is wrong and GOLB is "probably not coming back."

It was also at one point Magic Man would try to summon his wife back through a special wish room, but by then it was to late. As GOLB itself had already 'erased' her from existence. Even Prismo was baffled when he couldn't summon her back, having never expected that.

The Lich calls himself the "last scholar of GOLB" in to Finn.

Betty speaks to Magic Man (now known as King Man) about her plan to both save Simon from the ice crown and to get back Margles from GOLB.

Betty, Maja, and Normal Man summon GOLB to Ooo, and he wreaks havoc by combining the candy people's mass to create hostile wraiths. Upon seeing him, Ice King has a flashback to an indeterminate date in the past when he researched GOLB as Simon. In the flashback, Simon describes GOLB as a "mysterious entity who embodies chaos," and states that "his presence is felt in every crevice where chaos lurks." When GOLB arrives, he swallows Finn, Betty, and Simon. Simon and Finn manage to escape before he digests them, but Betty stays behind to try to use the Ice Crown to wish GOLB away from their world. Her first wish to destroy GOLB fails because GOLB's power supersedes that of the Crown, but her subsequent wish for "the power to keep Simon safe" succeeds and allows her to merge with GOLB into a single entity. The newly-created Betty-GOLB exits Ooo, leaving the Ice Crown behind.

### GrimmFall Timeline

Like the previous timeline, GOLB is an ancient being that predates the universe itself, and in his own way gave life of both Chaos and Order.

#### GrimmFall: The Golden Castle

GOLB would appear before the mortal Betty Petrikov. Here he explains that because of her interventions from the 'old timeline', she *made him feel*. A thing he didn't like, and was unable to do anything as by her own subconscious influence, kept him back.

Betty wouldn't understand, but GOLB didn't care. Simply explaining that one day, it will make her feel utter terror, leaving an ominous warning. It's unknown if Betty even remembers this.

### Rise of Power

Later on GOLB makes an attempt to release himself from his prison and unleash his power on his enemies. He starts by affecting the local undead that were rising up in Nowhere after the windmill next to Eustace Bagge and his wife's farm is destroyed. Where instead of having them attack Dipper Pines, Mabel Pines, and Double D, he had them go elsewhere to get Betty Petrikov where he would break her and tell them to not let anyone get in their way. During this Betty's own face was also turning into that of GOLB.

This would cause Klarion, Nyx Kane, and Bill Cipher to be confused as Nyx herself released them yet they weren't doing their job. It was then Bill Cipher would be called on and meet another being like him who was imprisoned called Canaletto, and was surprised he was alive. Canaletto told Bill that GOLB was coming and they should make an alliance which Bill agreed to. He would later return to Klarion and Nyx where the three Lords of Chaos would then realize it truly was GOLB as the skeletons were connected to him. Thus making them realize they had to somehow stop him otherwise once GOLB came, he'd make the universe non-existent.

Of course the three realized they would be unlikely to actually beat him, thus suggesting that Bill make a deal with White Diamond to help out. As for Betty both Simon and Marceline were shocked by her transformation with Simon however figuring out what was going on, but having no idea what to do. Simon then having him and Marceline pack up to leave town just in case, unaware GOLB was watching them.

## Powers and Abilities

GOLB is considered to be one of, if not **THE** most powerful beings of all in the universe and multiverse. His very breath causing chaos of all sorts, such as creating wraiths, fusing things, causing stars to burn, and so on. His ability exceeding even the crown of Evergreen, and can destroy information wiping existence away. Having even destroyed the universe multiple times over. He also can remember previous timelines, thus still remembering the 'Adventure Time' timeline.

Nyx Kane also states even if her, Bill Cipher, and Klarion all work together, GOLB is still stronger than them.

**Life Creation:** While unintentional, his breath gave life. Making all sorts of lifeforms, both the good and bad.

**Creation**: GOLB can create certain things if he wishes to by spatting them out. Such as a world of unlight.

**Absolute Immortality:** He predates the universe itself, and is more than capable of living through it.

**Information Destruction:** If he eats anything, it stays gone. Permanently.

## Relationships

**Betty Petrikov -** GOLB finds her insufferable, a parasite, one that forced her way into his core being. Causing him to see what was below him, and gave him actual emotions which he did not enjoy. Even keeping him out of reality, but promises her he'll cause her to scream one day. Betty likely not remembering this conversation at all. Later on, he would cause her to gain some of his physical traits causing her panic as her family then tries to figure out what to do. None knowing he had sent his followers to go after her while watching them.

**Sammael -** It's unknown what the relationship between them is, but Sammael likely knows of him.

'*Lords of Order'* **-** Due to him being an embodiment of discord, chaos, and evil, naturally he finds them dissatisfying when they 'poisoned' his creations. Causing a war between their race in the first place. It's uncertain how they feel about him.

**Lords of Chaos -** GOLB cares not for them and only wishes to make the universe non-existent. thus putting him at odds with them and when those like Bill and Canaletto realized his plans, he taunted them. Currently the Lords of Chaod in GrimmFall are attempting to find a way to stop him, if only for their own sake.
