Barak

Barak is the Arcutha of Heat and the first-born of the Arcuthas Calur and Arca.

## **Overview**

As the first-born child of Calur, Barak is said to be extremely powerful, even rivaling Ordas. Barak was the first one tp train Akiel to on how to use his power.

## Appearance

According to Michael and Lucifer, Barak is seen as an younger man with dark brown hair on the top and lighter brown hair on the sides, a slightly above-average height and a fair complexion. Barak also has blue and gold eyes, and his attire is similar to that of Michael.

However, sometimes when he is able to escape the Abyss, Barak assumes the appearance of the Archangel Michael.

## Personality

Barak is said to inherited his father's noble nature though like his father, along with all of his kind, he is said to be very cruel to outsiders due to Tathamet's corruption of the race. Even after the corruption however, Barak is noted by Uriel to be one of the more reasonable Arcuthas when compared to Tharo and Ordas, who just destroy without taking responsibility for it.

Like most of the Arcuthas, Barak despises all of demonkind due to their connection with Tathamet along with their own chaotic and cruel nature. However, Barak seems to possess a special loathing towards to fallen angels due to them willingly leaving their purity for depravity and sin, and that most fallen angels become demons. Barak has stated though that they are some demons and fallen angels that he can show honest respect for, like Sparda and Satanael respectively.

However, Barak does believe that demons are nowhere near as bad as beings such as the Outer Gods, along with the rest of the Old Ones. Barak absolute loathes every single Old One, including even the more benevolent ones like the Elder Gods, finding them disgusting, abhorred and loathsome and won't show any mercy towards them what-so-ever. Barak's relationship with the primordials is also rather complicated due to him knowing that they killed many of his brethren and vice versa.

To angels and humanity, he appears far more conflicted towards them. While being seen enjoying being around the inhabitants of Heaven, he does realized that they only exist to replace the Arcuthas, and as consequence Barak himself, which he has shown bitterness towards. Even so, Barak has to be noted to be compassionate towards the angels, like his Arcuthic Brethren. While humanity, Barak does give respect and kindness to those who are worthy of it, he also present some sense of superiority towards them due to humans being far beneath the Arcuthas in every single way.

However, it does not mean that Barak can not feel anger from humanity as when John Constantine pushed Barak's buttons hard enough, it was incredibly terrifying to say the very least. Barak is seen to hold a large measure of bitterness towards God, due to Him banishing the Aructhas and erasing their history, and has seen being vocal about it. Due to this, the forces of Hell had tried to seduce him to their side, only to inevitably fail over and over again due to Barak's loathing their kind.

## Powers and Abilities

Barak is an immensely, and ridiculously powerful Arcutha to the point that his power rivals that of Ordas, who is said to be slightly weaker than his father, Calur. Barak is seen to be able to make even the strongest of Archdemon's shiver in fear to the point that his mere name makes them feel a massive shiver down their spines.

* **Primal Arcutha Physiology:** Barak is a Arcutha, existing in a state of being free from the constraints of the material world, as in the case of a deity or other beings that can/have overcome the limitations of physical existence and also be/become independent of it. Barak is physically and mentally beyond essentially all forms of harm or other ways to influence them (outside of other beings of similar status, superior beings or some specific concepts), and gain powers that are of absolute level to outside viewers. While he can enter into the material universe, becoming immanent, his true being is outside existence and thus both independent and outside of everything that happens to his manifested/avatar form.
* **Nigh Omnipotence:** Barak has an infinite power coming close to that of his father Calur and he is more powerful than his brothers and sisters. Even ancient cosmic Deities began to fear him after learning of his existence. Barak's power is clearly seen to be able to take on both Gaia and Tartarus's power combined and is able to obliterate thousands of demons all at once. His power and presence alone was seen to make Merkabah and Lucifer back down from their common conflicts. It is also stated by Satan that in all of hell only two beings can fight him, or at the very least persuade him to leave. It is believed that even if the Seven Princes along with the other Archdemons combined all their powers, it still wouldn't be enough to even defeat him. He can also manipulate space, time and reality to his will, by simply willing it using only simple gestures. He can manipulate and control the physical world in his presence and create solid matter out of nothing.
* **Metapotence:** Barak possesses Almighty infinte and unfathomable power far beyond any reason, logic and understanding. Barak can do whatever he wants, whenever he wants, however he wants, allowing them to achieve anything and everything without any limit, no matter how impossible or contradictory, completely overriding all other forces and abilities like they didn't exist at all.
* **Nigh Omnipresence:** Barak possesses an immensely powerful presence that can make even the True Archangels kneel before him and can cause a universal changing in the surrounding. Barak's immense presence is said to make any deity besides the Outer Gods and Primordials look completely inferior and can even be sensed by all of existence.
* **Nigh Omniscience:** As an Arcutha, Barak possesses an immensely powerful level of knowledge and wisdom that can allow him to outwit even Satan. Barak is seen to possess immense knowledge on how to even defeat beings as powerful as Nyx. Having been living for countless billions of millennia, Barak knows almost everything in existence, being capable of possibly seeing multiple timelines and universes, or have just small patches of information that are missing or blocked out.
* **Nigh-Absolute Invulnerability:** As one of the strongest Arcuthas, Barak's durability is so immense to point that it borders in a near absolute invulnerability. He is strong enough to take on full blown attacks from his opponents without taking any damage or minor scratch. Barak is one of the very few powerful Arcuthas that are immune to almost all kinds of damage, be it physical, mental, spiritual, and even conceptual. He can be immune to all damages except for one or more exceptions.
* **Absolute Immortality**: As one the strongest of the Arcuthas, Barak is absolutely immortal, and cannot die, age, get sick, be permanently wounded, is absolutely self-sustained and, as his mind and soul are immortal, he is immune to mental/spiritual damage. Any injuries Barak suffers will immediately heal, even if Barak's body is disintegrated or blown up or completely erased and even if Barak is completely destroyed to the sub-atomic level, they will still return to life. However, the only beings that are able to kill him are Pre-existential Entities and those close to them, like Calur.
* **Supernatural Concealment**: As an Arcutha, Barak can hide from anything, including humans and even extremely high-ranking supernatural entities such as angels, demons, gods and even some lesser Primordials. In short, Barak can't be found unless he wants to be. However, there are beings who are able to detect him, which is mainly and only due to their immeasurable power and knowledge.
* **Absolute Condition**: As one of the strongest Arcuthas, Barak has a supreme mental and physical condition. His other abilities, if applicable, are often at Absolute levels. At the most basic level, Barak has a supreme and absolute physical and mental condition, with absolutely nothing being able to surpass them in those attributes. For example, with his strength, he can lift the entire multiverse or punch so hard reality is distorted. With his speed, he can travel infinite distances/execute infinite actions within a finite amount of time and go everywhere and everywhen faster than instantly. With his intellect, he can outsmart the smartest cosmic beings effortlessly. However, an absolute condition also includes other attributes of existence such as absolute immortality, invulnerability, regeneration, life-force and potential, making him truly supreme in every aspect of existence.
* **Absolute Regeneration**: As an Arcutha, Barak can heal from absolutely anything, even if there is literally nothing remaining of Barak. One will be as frail and vulnerable as before, but every injury shall cease; critical injuries will be healed in a matter of seconds if not instantly. Complete destruction results in complete restoration. Even wounds that are irreversible in nature will heal just like normal wounds. All forms of cellular injuries and disease infection will be healed at metaphysical levels, rewritten all damage to a mere dream, even if said injuries appeared before the regeneration powers are obtained, such as heredity illnesses and unformed limbs. Because the cells and telomere lengths will not shorten in any way, he does not age and all forms of sustenance intake required is utterly removed. Barak is immune to drugs, disease, and all harmful foreign substances, and will be forever in his optimal health and physical prime.
* **Absolute Flight**: Barak can fly at absolute and limitless speeds, easily surpassing light speed infinitely, travelling infinite distances in a finite amount of time. With this ability, he can explore the entire multiverse and infinitely beyond in mere picoseconds, experiencing countless events, worlds and timelines. Barak can fly without wings or divine energy.
* **Telepathy**: Barak can read the thoughts of others as well as mentally communicate. He is even seen doing this in an entirely different dimension, as seen when he telepathed hundreds of people despite being in the abyss.
* **Hyper-Cosmic Awareness**: He is aware of anything that affects them on a universal & multiversal scale including threats, anything that would affect them or the universe in any way, or even somebody talking about them, Barak is aware of anything and everything that affects the Megaverse on an megaversal scale, so much that he can see beyond time and space, peering into distant worlds beyond his own, as well as the dangers of which they present to their own world.
* **Meta Resurrection**: As an Arcutha, Barak can resurrect himself or others regardless of what has happened to them, including whether or not they are erased, destroyed, disintegrated, non-existent, removed, denied, negated, etc., in mass levels if necessary. No matter the condition/state of the target they can be perfectly revived every time without fail.
* **Teleportation**: Barak can teleport himself or absolutely anything to literally any place and time he desire's, including physical locations as well as metaphysical places. This power also allows Barak to teleport concepts into the physical world, like memories and thoughts, and bring anything into reality.
* **Highly Advanced Holy White Light**: As an Arcutha, Barak can produce and then unleashed a powerful, overwhelming, magnificent, divine white light glow from his hands which can burn anyone within its range and can obliterate entire structures and destroy a number of beings in one place. Barak can blast basically anything into oblivion with holy energy.
* **Highly Advanced Apportation**: Barak can summon other entities to him and can banish them as well. He can also teleport person, objects and even worlds to wherever he want.
* **Highly Advanced Telekinesis**: Barak immense telekinetic powers and can move just about anything, any object, matter, or being, with his mind, even at great range. However, entities such as primordials and outer gods are immune to his telekinetic powers.
* **Highly Advanced Reality Warping**: As an Arcutha, Barak has among the greatest degree of reality warping and his reality warping powers make's him virtually omnipotent. Like the True Archangels, Barak can alter and manipulate reality itself, albeit to a greater degree than virtually any other being or spell.
* **Smiting**: Barak can strike his targets with a far superior force/blow, usually resulting in a One Hit Kill against almost anything. When used by Barak, this ability has an Arcutha aspect imbued into it, dealing even more damage to unholy or evil enemies. The amount of power Barak can use with this ability is absolutely unlimited, merely preparing it can cause fear in his opponents.
* **Nonexistence**: Barak possesses the ability to erase entire universe's and can even erase archdemons with ease. Barak's ability to erase thing's isn't as powerful as some other beings, who can erase thing to the point that they aren't even remembered.
* **Omni-Manipulation**: Barak can manipulate anything, absolutely everything -- be it physical (matter, energy, the space-time fabric, etc.); or metaphysical (soul, mind, life, death, logic, aspects of reality, and even concepts). With the stipulation of kinetic powers being wide-ranged, Barak is extremely powerful with complete mastery over this power.
* **Omni Healing**: As an Arcutha, Barak can heal/restore anything/everything to optimal condition/health, including people, objects/locations, environments, abilities/powers, defensive powers, souls, worlds, natural forces/concepts etc. Undoing any/all damage they may have suffered and potentially even making himself stronger in process.
* **Absolute Restoration**: As an Arcutha, Barak can restore literally anything/everything back to its natural/original state with absolutely no flaws or mistakes in the process, regardless how badly destroyed the target is. He can undo powers that can be otherwise apocalyptic, reverse altered effects, restore destroyed souls, resurrect, and heal any type of damage be it mental, emotional, spiritual, physical. However, Barak cannot restore anything destroyed by beings equal, close to and far above him in power.
* **Biological Manipulation**: Barak can manipulate life on a cellular level, including but not limited to, genetic alterations and physical distortion and/or augmentations of biological functions. He can cause cells to augment to induce advanced or declined biological healing, induce diseases like cancer, induce appearance alteration, manipulate pheromones, and even increase physiological maturity.
* **Divine Form**: Barak can channel his own divinity through his body and soul to gain his true inner form empowered by his own divine powers. The divine form usually manifests as massive amounts of power and intense white waves of light/flashing lights/electricity through the body/appearance of Barak and grants improved versions of their original abilities as well as gaining new abilities that reflect his true inner form.
* **Absolute Explosion**: Barak can create explosions that can destroy absolutely anything and everything, with absolutely nothing can defend against it. The attack can cause explosions that destroy opponents of any form, whether they be immortal or the hardest substance in existence. It can also reach every plane of existence, whether it be space and time or alternate and pocket dimensions. Barak can cause explosions that burst through intangible objects as well. This power also explodes through metaphysical concepts such as reality and illusion, allowing one to either dispel and destroy illusions of any level or explode through the barrier between the two and allow imagination to become reality or vice versa. Dreams and memories can also be caused to explode, allowing one to escape from being trapped in nightmares and the mental world.
* **Nova Manipulation**: Barak can create, shape and manipulate novas (including supernovas, kilonovas and hypernovas), a transient astronomical event that causes the sudden appearance of a bright, apparently "new" star, that slowly fades over several weeks or many months. Nova involve an interaction between two stars that cause the flareup that is perceived as a new entity that is much brighter than the stars involved.
* **Primordial Light Manipulation**: As an Arcutha, Barak can control the primal light that brought about the dawn of creation, representing the warmer, brighter aspect of primal creation, alongside the Darkness, both being two halves of the same coin, yet stand opposite and in perfect balance. Due to its primordial nature it goes beyond concepts of good, evil or even neutrality. Barak inherited it from his father, Calur, who inherited it from his father, God.
* **Primordial Darkness Manipulation**: Barak is also seen to control the primal darkness that has existed before creation, and represents the darker aspect of primal creation alongside the Light, both being two halves of the same coin, yet stand opposite. Due to its primordial nature it goes beyond concepts of good, evil, and even neutrality. Barak states that heat is all things, even if it's small amounts, even in ice, frozen water, night-time, darkness, the sky, weather and so forth.
* **Cosmic Element Manipulation**: As an Arcutha, Barak can create, shape, and manipulate cosmic elements, like fire from the stars, water and air from comets, the Moon, planets etc.
* **Primordial Element Manipulation**: As an Arcutha, Barak can create, shape and manipulate elements of an ancient primordial nature, elements so ancient that they were from the beginning of the universe. Being more powerful than ordinary element manipulation, one can use this power for a variety of powerful and catastrophic effects. Such as altering the very concept of the elements, change how the elements interact with the world, and perform planetary or even cosmic level feats with ease. In many cases, Barak can use this power to be able to override any other forms of Elemental Manipulation as the elements themselves comprise the domain of Barak.
* **Primordial Air Manipulation**: Barak can also control the air. With this power, Barak can create, shape and manipulate air of an ancient primordial nature. As opposed to regular Air Manipulation, Barak with this power is living embodiment of air. As such, he can cause natural air effects such as tornadoes, hurricanes, and wind storms to manifest.
* **Primordial Sky Manipulation**: Barak can also control the sky. With this power, Barak can create, shape and manipulate the skies of an ancient primordial nature. As opposed to regular Sky Manipulation, Barak with this power is living embodiment of the sky itself. As such, he can cause natural sky-related phenomena to manifest, such as creating auroras, calling upon lightning, make it rain, etc. In many cases, when using this power, Barak is be able to override other forms of Sky Manipulation as the sky represents the domain of the Barak.
* **Terrakinesis**: Barak can cause powerful tremors, earthquakes, avalanches, and seismic activities either through by thought or merely by his mere presence alone. Barak can cause all the planets in multiple universes to unleash apocalyptic Earthquakes with but his mere presence and aura. Barak is even able to manipulate the Earth at an primal level, even causing Volcanic eruptions, Tsunami's, and many other natural disasters to manifest with this very power.
* **Thermokinesis**: Barak can create, shape and manipulate temperature, a form of kinetic energy between particles at the atomic or molecular level: the greater the movement of these particles, the greater the thermal energy and reversed. Heat itself is internal thermal energy that flows from one body of matter to another, it is not the same as the energy contained in a system—that is, the internal thermal energy of the system. Barak has complete control over the body temperature of oneself and others, including increasing and decreasing it to harmful or lethal levels, increasing it to levels where touching the target is painful/damaging while keeping the target unaffected by the changes, concealing body temperature, making the target resistant or immune to temperatures, etc. With this power, Barak is completely unaffected by the temperature changes.
* **Fire Manipulation**: As the Arcutha of all forms of heat, Barak can create, shape and manipulate fire, the rapid oxidation of a material in the exothermic chemical process of combustion, releasing heat, light, and various reaction products, flame being the visible portion of the fire. Depending on the substances alight, and any impurities outside, the color of the flame and the fire's intensity will be different.
* **Solar Manipulation**: As the Arcutha of all forms of heat, Barak can create, shape, and manipulate all aspects of sun, starting from its immense heat, luminosity, mass/gravitational field, magnetic field, raw nuclear energy, and reaction, etc. More specific effects include solar winds/flares, geomagnetic storms, sunspot reaction causation, UV emissions, and plant growth promotion.
* **Solar Constructs**: As the Arcutha of all forms of heat, Barak can turn solar energy/substances into tools, objects, weapons and other items, create semi-living constructs and/or create structures/buildings of varying permanence. Barak has complete mastery of this ability can use it for almost any situation, creating anything they need.
* **Solar Aura**: As the Arcutha of all forms of heat, Barak can release surround himself in/with solar energy/substances for defensive and/or offensive purposes, possibly becoming almost untouchable and granting him various abilities/attacks. The aura also give's Barak enhanced physical capabilities such as speed, strength, and durability.
* **Cosmic Fire Manipulation**: As the Arcutha of all forms of heat, Barak can create, shape and manipulate cosmic fire from the depths of deep space, from celestial objects such as from meteors, stars, constellations, planets/planetoids, etc. These flames can burn in space, and thus, have no need of the consumption of oxygen.
* **Primordial Fire Manipulation**: As the Arcutha of all forms of heat, Barak can create, shape and manipulate fire of an ancient primordial nature. As opposed to regular Fire Manipulation, these flames are indistinguishable and absolute. As such, he can cause natural and supernatural fire effects such as Crown Wildfires, Firestorms, Solar Flares, Hypernovas and Heatwaves to manifest, also can manipulate flames that possess heat that go beyond Planck Level and defy the very laws of Hyper-Thermodynamics. It allows Barak to burn anything, even non-flammable, incorporeal, or conceptual things like time and nonexistence. They also have the ability to manipulate the underlying foundation of the concept of fire and concepts associated with it. Fire Immunity and/or Heat Immunity provides no protection from these flames as they will be completely bypassed due to its sheer potency and primeval nature. In many cases users of this power will be able to override any other forms of Fire Manipulation as fire is the domain of Barak.
* **Magma Manipulation**: As the Arcutha of all forms of heat, Barak can create, shape and manipulate molten rock (magma while underground, lava when on the surface), a mixture of molten or semi-molten rock, volatiles, and solids, it may also contain suspended crystals, dissolved gas and gas bubbles.
* **Magma Constructs**: As the Arcutha of all forms of heat, Barak can turn magma into tools, objects, weapons and other items, create semi-living constructs and/or create structures/buildings of varying permanence. Barak has mastery over this ability can use it for almost any situation, creating anything they need.
* Electric-Fire Manipulation: As the Arcutha of all forms of heat, Barak can create, shape and manipulate either electrified fire or both fire and electricity simultaneously.
* Electric Flame Aura: As the Arcutha of all forms of heat, Barak can release and surround himself in/with electrical fire for defensive and/or offensive purposes, possibly becoming almost untouchable and granting him various abilities/attacks. The aura also give's Barak enhanced physical capabilities such as speed, strength and durability. With this aura, Barak can make the ground itself shake and can turn that air as hot and the sun itself burning anything within a five-hundred million kilometer square. His mere aura can burn absolutely anything he desires.
* **Fire Aura:** As the Arcutha of all forms of heat, Barak can release surround himself in/with fire for defensive and/or offensive purposes, possibly becoming almost untouchable and granting him various abilities/attacks. The aura also give's Barak enhanced physical capabilities such as speed, strength, and durability.
* **Heat Aura:** As the Arcutha of all forms of heat, Barak can release surround himself in/with heat for defensive and/or offensive purposes, possibly becoming almost untouchable and granting him various abilities/attacks. The aura also give's Barak enhanced physical capabilities such as speed, strength and durability.
