The Deity of Time

The Master of All Futures

> "*You have seen it, you--WE know, as well as all others. Disaster will come for this world--for all worlds. Only we--YOU can stop it. We must become the future, we must become ALL futures, so that we can bring them peace. Assume your destiny--do not let her sacrifice be in vain.*"

**The Deity of Time** is an incredibly powerful extradimensional creature formed from combined existence of all alternate timeline forms of Psych Diety. Having been split off from the Prime Psych Diety by the first broken time portal, the first three Alter-Dieties observed all of time at once and eventually determined that the only way to prevent eventual catastrophe from encompassing each timeline was to take complete control over them all. Trapped in The Outside, The Deity eventually mastered chronokinesis and began to set into motion events that would rise it to power in each timeline. The Deity was destroyed by the Prime Psych Diety when he commanded it to erase itself from the timeline, thus preventing the circumstances of its existence.

# Biography

## History

### Creation

Originally only one timeline existed, the Prime Timeline, and there was just a single Psych Diety. The Deity did not yet exist. This changed with Psych and Lavender Ke Ahi's attempts to alter the past to stop Rob Boss. While successful in their initial goal, upon returning to their present they were confronted by a new terrible catastrophe that had taken the Dark Lord's place. In a panic they created a new portal, but this one was incomplete due to Lavender being struck down. When Psych entered the flawed time portal, the timelines shattered, as did his place in corporeality.

Psych was split into three parts, each trapped outside time and space. They suddenly witnessed all infinite moments at once, with uncountable time passing not at all for them. Through this the Psychs were able to understand the flow of time and came to realize that they could manipulate it from the outside.

### Mastery of Time

The effects of the Alter-Dietys creation upon the timeline was immediate. Infinite alternate timelines were spawned from their mere existence, a ripple of what they now understood to be done. The three Dietys used their powers to view all the possible timelines, seeking to find a path that lead out of the catastrophes which befell their original timeline. Instead they came to understand a darker truth, that free will was an illusion, and the constrains of fate eventually cowed everything along predetermined paths. As such, each and every timeline eventually could come to an ultimate catastrophe.

With this realization came another: that as the only ones capable of viewing constrains of fate, it was up to them to stop the catastrophes. And this could only be done by taking direct control of the timelines, assuming the all-encompassing role of fate and forcefully steering the futures under their control. As the Dietys saw it, no one truly had free will anyway. Under their control they could assure that fate brought only peace and prosperity, at the cost of that false "freedom" the people thought they enjoyed.

With this goal now set in motion, the Deitys began to develop their power in earnest. They would have to become a god of their own making, able to exert complete mastery over the timestream. Thus began their meddling and assumption of power to this end.

# Trivia

* The pronunciation of The Deity's name is emphasized to differentiate it from from Psych's surname 'Diety'
* Just like Psych, The Deity has a chipped right horn. This potentially implies all timelines involve Psych losing part of that horn.
* When split into its component Alter-Dietys, The Deity seems to have difficulty determining tenses and its own individuality.
