Abstract Existence

The Ultimate Ultimates (Marvel Comics) are the Abstract Representation of each variation of the Multiverse.

Background

Abstract Existence is the ability for the user to embody or become the personification of an Abstract Concept. By doing so, the User gains a multitude of abilities and becomes bound to the Concept they personify in some fashion. The level of power the Abstract can have over their concept varies on the character.

Among these is the ability to be nearly impervious to attacks that cannot harm conceptual beings or affect beings on a conceptual level. It should be noted that the type of concept to which they embody (such as a Type 1 Concept) should be noted on the page or in the Powers and Abilities section.

Types

Type 1: The User exists purely as an abstract idea and thus does not possess any true physical form and to affect or harm the being would require an opponent to be able to harm or affect a concept itself and to harm their Avatars would leave the Abstract self unharmed.

• Users: Giygas (EarthBound), Golden Goddesses (The Legend of Zelda)

Type 2: The User at this level is the Source and/or Wellspring of all which it represents and thus, it is impossible to physically destroy the being without harming them on a conceptual level. The User does not need an Avatar in order to exist.

• Users: Lunais (Timespinner), Mr. Game & Watch (Super Smash Bros.), Truth of the Universe (EarthBound)

Type 3: The User embodies an abstract idea and can be resurrected or regenerated infinitely due to their connection with their concept, however, the User is still a physical being and can still be affected by Non-Conceptual attacks.

• Users: Superman (Post-Crisis), The Brothers Death (SCP Foundation), Sephiroth (Kingdom Hearts)

Type 4: The User is an embodiment of an abstract idea, however, to destroy either does not require the destruction of both. These Users do not use their concepts to survive or regenerate, but due to their relationship with a concept, makes it easier for them to manipulate it. Embodies an abstraction, but the destruction of the former isn't needed in order to destroy or affect them.

• Users: The Batter (OFF), Eddie the Head (Comics)

Limitations

• Abstract entities recurrently strictly embody a concept, thought or idea up to a certain level of reality. For example, Eternity only embodies time on a local, universal scale. If the universe is destroyed, so is he.
