The character is a being with no beginning/origin at all, as they were always there even before existence. This means they didn't simply create themselves nor were they created by someone else or even come into existence. Rather, they have always existed in some form or another. As they have no beginning or ending of any kind, they are completely free from the control or influence of any being and even the grand design.
The character is immune to origin destruction or any other power that affects one's lifespan, as they have none in the same sense as natural living beings.
