Ryan Mariano, also known as the Voidslayer, is an alternate version of Hyper from the same universe as Hekon and Gamma.
Appearance[]
Ryan is a very tall man of a muscular and toned physique, with a medium-length dark brown hair (kept as a short ponytail), green eyes, and fair skin. He has some scars around his body, and has a very small beard around his face.
His outfit, despite resembling his original counterpart's, is slightly different. His attire consists on a black armor-like suit with silver trimming, black pants, black boots, and a large dark red cloak (with a "teared" style). The pants has several brown leather belts around. Sometimes, he also wears a customized mask to hide his identity if necessary.
Personality []
Voidslayer has a mind forged in the fires of loss and bitterness. Having lost everything dear to him — friends, family, love, and even his entire world — he carries an immense burden of sorrow and anger. Constantly in a state of berserker rage, he represses his deep-seated hatred behind a mask, presenting a formidable and merciless persona to the world; which himself admits he's nothing more than a "man who never grew up". However, this hatred and anger diminished through the years and currently he's way more stable and level-headed than before and/or his "normal counterpart".
In contrast to his original counterpart, this Ryan lacks the calming influence of someone like Naty in his life. Consequently, he remains consumed by his anger, never finding a reason to temper his temperamental nature. Despite his overwhelming bitterness, he has managed to put revenge aside, realizing the existence of universal resets and finding solace in the repeated encounters with his friends throughout different timelines. This newfound purpose drives him to seek a new path in life, beyond the pursuit of revenge, as he discovers the cyclical nature of existence.
Intelligent and wise, this Ryan possesses the same intellectual capacity as his original self. His creative and imaginative mind allows him to envision unreal situations and invent and test various concepts. However, like his original counterpart, he can still show a certain arrogance and ignorance.
While this Ryan shares his counterpart's ability to unleash his full power upon opponents, using intimidation as a psychological weapon, he is constantly driven by a sense of fearlessness. He thrives on brute strength and extreme violence, aiming to instill fear in those who dare challenge him. Chaotic and resistant to authority, he resents being told what to do, preferring to follow his own instincts and desires.
Powers and Abilities[]
- Omni-Human Physiology: Voidslayer transcends the boundaries of natural-born superhumans; where his dominance over physical and mental realms becomes blatantly evident. He stands as an embodiment of raw power, having amassed an overwhelming arsenal of abilities and weapons from his fallen allies. Each acquisition only served to further augment his already formidable capabilities. With his mere presence, he wields the ability to effortlessly obliterate entire universes and timelines, a testament to the sheer magnitude of his physical might. Before everything that happened with the original Ryan, this one was considered to be his own strongest version. He has all of his normal self's powers, but to a great degree, and many more.
- Nigh-Complete Arsenal: Ryan, after billions of years, have acquired powers and abilities completely beyond his original ones. By using the weapons of fallen allies and their abilities, as well as his ever evolving existence, he has now a nigh-infinite number of different abilities and possible capabilities. From simple and minor powers (like Telekinesis, Telepathy, Elemental Manipulation, etc), to even the greatest powers known to history (like Reality Warping, Space-Time Manipulation, Conceptual Manipulation, etc), Ryan has already acquired it. He not only still has all of his original abilities, but he also has the powers of each and every superpowered being in Earth's history (including not only the TGZs, but several others as well). The reason of why he had become so powerful is due to that his soul now exists at a higher-plane of existence, and his body is merely a "clone of the shadow" of his true-self.
- Absolute Strength: Much like his original-self, this Ryan possess an immeasurable and godly caliber of physical strength, having his abilities elevated far beyond the natural level. His strength has evolved to such point, that by it alone he can destroy otherwise conceptual and abstract things and beings. He is so immeasurably powerful, that with his strength alone, he is even be able to open portals by breaking and distorting the fabric of multiversal space-time with raw power (allowing him to interact with non-physical and conceptual beings and also travel through dimensions and multiverses with his portals), being also capable of creating powerful shockwaves (that are capable of disrupting natural order), generate powerful pressures of air with sheer strength, and much more incredible feats.
- Absolute Speed: Ryan possesses an unparalleled mastery over speed, defying the limits of motion itself. With a single stride, he can traverse entire universes in the blink of an eye, leaving behind a cosmic trail of awe and astonishment. His movements are so swift that they blur the fabric of reality, rendering him practically untouchable. Whether engaging in combat or simply exploring the cosmos, Ryan effortlessly outpaces the flow of time itself, a streak of unstoppable velocity. He stated that himself is "faster than time", and as such, any level of speed is irrelevant for him since he absolutely transcends this very concept.
- Absolute Reflexes: Time bends to his will, as his reflexes transcend the realms of possibility. His mind operates at an accelerated pace, allowing him to perceive events with breathtaking clarity, even in the midst of chaos. Every attack, every obstacle, is met with an instantaneous response, as if he were anticipating his opponents' actions before they even occur.
- Absolute Invulnerability: Ryan's body tissues, skin, muscles, bones, etc, are absolutely dense/solid, allowing him to withstand forces that are harmful to the body, such as crushing weights, impacts, pressures, changes in temperature, etc. In addition, he has a dramatically improved level of endurance due to the durability of the body, allowing him to resist tearing muscles and/or breaking bones. He is immune to any forms of physical damage regardless of type, level and state, unable to feel physical pain, immune to bleeding or limb loss. This version has an absolute-level of invulnerability, and as such, not only physical damage is irrelevant, but this also applies to mental, spiritual, conceptual, and abstract damages.
- Soul Anchoring: Due to his immense power over his own chi, and as such over his own soul, Ryan is immune to all soul-based powers, meaning that his soul/spirit/aura/life-force cannot be manipulated in any way, including being observed, absorbed, destroyed, trapped/sealed, or converted into another type of soul.
- Psychic Immunity: The immunity to soul-based powers also extend to psychic forces. While initially he was just resistant to psychic powers, after some years and constant trainings, he was able to fully become immune to psionics. As such, his mind cannot be controlled, damaged, read, influenced, emulated, altered, detected or communicated with, forcing that telepathic allies to rely on alternate means of long-distance communication. Simply put, Ryan's mind cannot be entered or affected in any way, making him perfectly immune to any mind-related effects and abilities.
- Absolute Stamina: Bound by no mortal limitations, he possesses an infinite wellspring of physical energy that fuels his every action. His stamina knows no bounds, allowing him to engage in battles lasting eons without faltering. Regardless of the intensity or duration of his battles, he never tires or weakens.
- Absolute Agility: He is endowed with an agility that transcends natural limits, acquiring far greater levels of flexibility, balance and movement efficiency than an average human can achieve, even with intensive training.
- Absolute Senses: Ryan's senses transcend the boundaries of human perception, granting him an unfathomable level of awareness and intuition. His vision pierces through the deepest darkness of space, allowing him to see distant galaxies with perfect clarity. His hearing can discern the faintest whispers across vast cosmic distances. His sense of touch is so acute that he can detect the slightest vibrations and energy fluctuations. His senses grant him an omniscient perception of the multiverse, making him privy to secrets and details that elude even extraordinary beings.
- Extrasensory Perception: He can acquire information independently of any of his known senses or previous experience. This applies to any and all types of information, knowledge, wisdom, experience, etc. Information can be personal (memories, thoughts, etc) or impersonal (academic knowledge, data, etc). This ability can be used passively (as an instinctual reaction) or actively (wanting to know specific information). Through it, he can see and sense spirits and several other types of things.
- Absolute Regeneration: Ryan's regeneration surpasses the boundaries of mere physical restoration, extending into the realm of existential rebirth. Even when faced with the complete annihilation of his body, mind, soul, and the very essence of his being, he defies the void of oblivion. From the ashes of erasure, he emerges anew, his existence reconstructed on a foundational level. No matter how thoroughly his identity is erased, whether it be his place within the narrative, his history, or even his very concept; he can return effortlessly. Due to this absurd level of regeneration, this Ryan is absolutely immortal (much like Gamma).
- Flight: He can fly or move through the air using various methods. Some possibilities include using one or more forms of energy, wings or similar structures, taking advantage of anti-graviton particles, or even imitating or becoming an animal that can fly. He can also, generally, levitate, glide and slide.
- Self-Particle Manipulation: Much like his original-self, Ryan has the ability to manipulate his own particles at quantum levels, having a variety of possible effects. He can manipulate his particles to take on a new shape, become invisible, control his atomic structure to become an inorganic object, and much more. He has control over absolutely every particle of himself, so he also has a quantum consciousness (so he retains his mind on whatever form he takes, independent of whatever it is); and is also able to add (in case of augmenting his size, taking bigger forms, self-replicate, etc) and/or remove (when he decreases in size, takes minor forms, etc) how many particles he wants from his body. He stated that this is the power that he mostly mastered.
- Absolute Shapeshifting: Ryan can change his shape, transforming and reshaping himself and even changing his genetic and cellular structure. He can impersonate others or improve his own body for combat, either by transforming into animals, humanoids, monsters, etc, or making the body stronger. He, with particularly flexible abilities, can manipulate his form at will, combining abilities, traits, etc, even being able to transform limbs into weapons and reform after being blown up by explosives, change his own age, gender, species, color palette, identity, voice, etc. Ryan, being experienced, can even manipulate his own DNA and completely alter it at the molecular level. He can take virtually any shape he wants, even if it's impossible, illogical, etc.
- Self-Size Manipulation: Ryan can freely manipulate his own size, from small to downright gigantic while maintaining his physical proportion. Generally, strength and durability are proportional to the assumed size, but he can gain increased abilities when growing or maintain normal abilities when shrinking. He can assume even forms that transcends the notions of space-time.
- Self-Replication: He can replicate instantly and perfectly himself and biological/organic beings. He is able to copy clothes/equipment along with his body.
- Teleportation: Ryan can teleport himself from one point to another without crossing the space between them. This can be achieved by various means, including making atoms/molecules travel at the speed of light, distorting space or using quantum superposition, in which he teleports himself by spatially reorganizing the subatomic content of a system.
- Absolute Shapeshifting: Ryan can change his shape, transforming and reshaping himself and even changing his genetic and cellular structure. He can impersonate others or improve his own body for combat, either by transforming into animals, humanoids, monsters, etc, or making the body stronger. He, with particularly flexible abilities, can manipulate his form at will, combining abilities, traits, etc, even being able to transform limbs into weapons and reform after being blown up by explosives, change his own age, gender, species, color palette, identity, voice, etc. Ryan, being experienced, can even manipulate his own DNA and completely alter it at the molecular level. He can take virtually any shape he wants, even if it's impossible, illogical, etc.
- Biological Manipulation: Ryan can manipulate life at the cellular level, including but not limited to genetic alterations and physical distortion and/or enhancement of biological functions. He can cause cells to enlarge to induce advanced or denied biological healing, induce diseases such as cancer, induce appearance alteration, manipulate pheromones/hormones, and even increase physiological maturity. He is considered one of the most skilled biokinesis users in existence, since he not only has a mastery over it on himself, but also that he is capable of affecting any kind of biological beings and organic matter in general.
- Chi Manipulation: Ryan can create, shape, and manipulate chi, a form of life force that exists in anything and everything. By learning to harness this latent inner energy, he can gain many chi abilities and use them in cases of extreme combat. Some examples include physically manifesting all of his inner strength and releasing it through sheer willpower (thus generating a strong pressure that makes weaker beings faint). He can project chi attacks, enhance his physical attributes, infuse it into weapons to make them more powerful, and potentially some other types of chi-related powers.
- Absorbing Replication: After mastering his inner chi/aura, Ryan converted all of his original powers into something unique and powerful. This, is the capability of absorb any material and replicate its properties within himself. Said properties can then be coded for later use and potential combinations. This makes a very effective defense, as attacks received not only strengthen Ryan instead of hurting him, but even add it to his options. This is also very useful to break restraints, as he can merge through them or simply absorb his way to freedom. This power works by merging briefly with objects and beings to memorize their properties and powers without damaging them, or assimilate & drain them dry to empower Ryan's new abilities or build up his resources. He may even use it as a weapon, absorbing his opponents alive along with their weapons/equipment, armors and powers. He can also shape his body's form and properties to match the current situation, shapeshift various tools and weapons based on absorbed data, and even recombine assimilated properties into new and more powerful ones.
- Self-Adaptation: He, with this power, can adapt to virtually anything he might face by his will-based command over his body to adapt. This power is also reactive in nature, as Ryan is subject to no limits to his adaptation, regardless of whether the condition of the configuration requires him to acquire specific abilities associated with the need to survive or the extent and speed of his configurations.
- Absorbing Replication: After mastering his inner chi/aura, Ryan converted all of his original powers into something unique and powerful. This, is the capability of absorb any material and replicate its properties within himself. Said properties can then be coded for later use and potential combinations. This makes a very effective defense, as attacks received not only strengthen Ryan instead of hurting him, but even add it to his options.

He can also shape his body's form and properties to match the current situation, shapeshift various tools and weapons based on absorbed data, and even recombine assimilated properties into new and more powerful ones.
- Energy Manipulation: Ryan has the ability of channeling, absorb, shape and project/generate energy to various purposes. Initially (and generally), he uses it to project energy from the eyes, hands, feet and from any part of his body as forms of attacks and combat in general, causing various effects. Ryan can learn to manipulate the projection (beams, blasts, etc), manipulate their trajectories, intensity, heat, pass through objects and keep tracing on targets, control the energy's shapes and forms, and many other uses.
- Matter Manipulation/Transmutation: Ryan has the ability to alter and transform the compositional structure of various types of existence, be it matter, energy, elements, living beings, etc, making them acquire a new form and composition according to his will. He can perform partial or full transmutations on his targets and even determine the duration of effects. Due to his mastery with transmutation, in time, he was able to acquire a full control over matter as a whole (in a quantum-level, due to his sub-quantum control over himself).
- Nigh-Complete Arsenal: Ryan, after billions of years, have acquired powers and abilities completely beyond his original ones. By using the weapons of fallen allies and their abilities, as well as his ever evolving existence, he has now a nigh-infinite number of different abilities and possible capabilities. From simple and minor powers (like Telekinesis, Telepathy, Elemental Manipulation, etc), to even the greatest powers known to history (like Reality Warping, Space-Time Manipulation, Conceptual Manipulation, etc), Ryan has already acquired it. He not only still has all of his original abilities, but he also has the powers of each and every superpowered being in Earth's history (including not only the TGZs, but several others as well). The reason of why he had become so powerful is due to that his soul now exists at a higher-plane of existence, and his body is merely a "clone of the shadow" of his true-self.
Abilities[]
- Nigh-Omniscience: Even before acquiring immense levels of power, Ryan was still a very intelligent individual. By the years, his intellect grew to nigh-omniscient levels, and now, he knows nearly everything. He's able to understand even metaphysical knowledge and was able to decipher and counter a certain ability of an enemy in the past (which consisted on the target being overflooded with infinite information with infinite possibilities, and Ryan got out from it by simply analyzing it).
- Absolute Combat: Through innumerous years honing his skills and abilities, Ryan is considered to be one of the beings with the greatest fighting abilities in the multiverse (and this makes sense, as his powers relies more on his body than the environment, unlike his fellow friends). He's skilled at various different kind weapons (mainly bladed ones, such as swords), martial arts, brawling, and many more.
- Accelerated Development: Ryan is known for his great and constantly increasing rate of development, to the point of where he can quickly become extremely strong in a short span of time. Any and all trainings are really efficient to him, and himself already stated that it's possible that his power-level grows even when unwillingly. Using this ability with his adaptation powers, he has a even greater rate of development. Unlike his original-self's that is more "grounded", Voidslayer's development is infinite, and he can keep transcend more and more levels of power.
Weaknesses[]
- Despite not having any of his original-self's weaknesses, this Ryan is still heroic; which can be exploited by enemies.
Weapons & Paraphernalia[]
- Krafton
- Description: Basically the prototype and primordial version of Kraft Sword (all weapons forged in the Forge of the Ten are unique by nature; so even if Krafton is similar to the Kraft Sword in every way, it is still a completely different weapon from it's own). Similar to his original counterpart's weapon, the Krafton is a longsword of immeasurable power. By it's power alone, Ryan is able to effortlessly cut through literally anything; be it universes, realities, space-time, concepts, abstract things, etc. Ryan stated that his sword has evolved to such great level, that he believes that it (the sword) is a completely sentient being by itself.
- Powers & Abilities: The same as the Kraft Sword's (only to an absolute level of power).
- Sacram Vault
- Description: It is a quasi-reality of infinite size that Ryan uses as his personal "bag". Everything and anything can be stored there, and it will never reach it's maximum capacity. He uses it to guard various weapons, items, artifacts, souvenirs, and various types of objects he encounters with in his path. He has lots of things inside it, including an entire planet of dwarf-like creatures that needed refugee since they were in danger (and it's very chill living there so they don't care even though all these dwarves knows that they are inside someone's "bag").
Quotes[]
Years and years have passed... more than most beings can imagine... and yet, I still feel that burden in my heart. Pain? Regret? Maybe. But, it doesn't hurt anymore. I've learned the existence of things beyond my capacity. As such, I've learned that I don't really need to feel regret by things that can easily be recalled again and again.
I admit, in the beginning, I wanted to destroy him with all my heart. Kill, obliterate and incinerate anything coming from him. I was pretty much insane and consumed by wrath and vengeance. But, things happened and look where am I today! Heh, cool, right?
I've already visited an incredible number of different realities. For goodness' sake, I've gone even to other multiverses! You know settings we think as fictional? I went to there too. Heh, it was a fun experience indeed. You feel like a child when you have enormous power at your own hands.
Believe in your potential. I know I gave up my vengeance, but you have no reason to gave up yours. So stand up! Fight back! That bastard can't continue on his plan! I just didn't do anything before because I didn't know he wanted such thing. But now that I know his true inner monster, I believe you have to continue. I pass my torch to you, young me.
Trivia[]
- Before Hyper achieved his Omega Form, Voidslayer was considered to be Ryan's strongest variation at the multiverse.
- Currently, he serves more as a wanderer that destroys lifeless universes with his power; so reality can give birth to more universes, full of life. Ryan knows he doesn't need to do that, but he still does it because he still feels very empty within.
- He still has all tastes and dislikes his original self has. So...
- Favorite Food: Any junk food, mostly pizza and hot-dogs.
- Favorite own Superpower: Shapeshifting.
- Hates: Overused jokes.
- And so on.
- In certain universes, Voidslayer is revered as a mythical savior who appears during times of great peril.
- He's the reason of why Hyper could achieve the Omega Mode/Form (by fusing with him and every other alternate version of him in the multiverse).
- And actually, we could say that Ryan is not even the "same man as before" anymore.
- Basically, through various years, his own soul shaped itself into something more. He assumed various identities/forms to hide among every reality he visited; himself stated that he already lived as multiple different people with multiple different purposes.
- These identities/forms, even though that could vary very much (like changing his physical age, gender, height, etc), still had all the same pattern: dark brown hair and green eyes.
- This Ryan has become such legend among the multiverse, that he is now the origin of various mythological beings at various universes' culture. Basically, anyone that is too powerful by anyone else's standards and had the pattern mentioned above, it's certainly Voidslayer.
- Throughout his journeys, he has formed alliances with beings from diverse backgrounds and species.
- The divergence point that separated Voidslayer and Hyper's histories were when Hekon didn't simply send William to hell, but outright kill him and the rest of the TGZs; leaving Ryan alone.
- As such, in Voidslayer's timeline, it never occurred: the Cosmic Tournament, Fate Master's attack to the World Security League, Naty's encounter (which is understandable since she's a singularity), the meeting of Ryan and allies with the Gods, and anything after that.
- Hekon makes sure to make every Ryans' timeline as miserable as the last. He just weakened himself after starting to believing even less in the "prophecy" (that Ryan would eventually defeat him).
- In certain realities, legends speak of a phenomenon known as "Voidslayer's Vortex," a cosmic disturbance caused by the echoes of his immense power.
- His Sacram Vault serves as not only a repository for weapons but also a temporal refuge for displaced beings. Various entities, artifacts, and civilizations find sanctuary within, safeguarded by him.
- Within his quasi-reality Sacram Vault, Voidslayer maintains an otherworldly observatorium. It houses crystalline spheres, each containing a snapshot of a moment from various timelines and universes.
- His presence tends to create temporary rifts in the fabric of space-time. These anomalies are harmless but have unintentional side effects, such as localized shifts in gravity or brief glimpses into alternate realities.
- During his countless travels across realities, he developed a penchant for collecting unique and peculiar items. These range from exotic alien artifacts to fragments of shattered universes.
