- "Beyond the Short-Time levels of existence and the Long-Time levels on which Lachesis, Atropos and I exist, there are yet other levels. These are inhabited by creatures we could call All-Timers, beings which are either eternal or so close to it as to make no difference."
- ― Clotho (The Dark Tower)
The power to exist outside of time. Sub-power of Spatial-Temporal Lock. Opposite to Temporal Presence. Outside counterpart of Temporal Anchoring.
Also Called[]
- Chronolock
- Time Lock
- True Atemporality
Capabilities[]
The user exists “outside of time” and or is immune to time, which makes them immune to its effects and all that is caused by it. This can render the user ageless as a result. Since the their Consciousness and the users body is not affected by time, they do not expend energy, and therefore neither need to eat nor sleep. Because time does not flow for the user, any diseases also do not progress, thus effectively rendering the user immune to disease symptoms and damage. They may also exhibit regenerative capabilities as a result of their temporal lock, as their bodies will always revert to the point in time in which they were not injured.
The difference between Temporal Lock and Chronal Anchor is that, while the Chronal Anchor is immune to temporal and causal effects while inside the timeline, the Temporal Locked is essentially outside of time, consequently become immune to it.
