Hyperman is an extremely powerful entity who serves as the third "god" of The Barrel - though he is technically not a monocosmic god in the traditional sense, being of a different species from Creator and Destroyer. Hyperman is in fact an ascended mortal, who had risen to power in The Omniverse until eventually rivaling Destroyer. Whereas Creator and Destroyer's purposes are self-apparent in their names, Hyperman could be considered "The Preserver" in the monocosmic trinity. He acts as a mediator between Creator and Destroyer, serving as a buffer to prevent the two gods from coming to blows. He also works to ensure that the balance of power within the Omniverse remains stable and fair.
History[]
Hyperman was a mortal being who hailed from the Year 56233 AD in an alternate Universe, in which science had advanced so rapidly that time travel was already invented in 456 BC. Having descended from the creator of his native Universe, he already held immense power from birth.
Over time, Hyperman's power gradually increased, overcoming such concepts as space, time, destiny and causality. He continued to grow ever more powerful until not only holding dominion over all of the Omniverse, but travelling beyond it. Hyperman then proceeded to create his own Godverse, after which he chose to never again enter the Omniverse for unknown reasons.
These scant few details are all that is known for certain about Hyperman, beyond rumors and conjecture. This has given rise to numerous theories, myths, legends and interpretations surrounding this enigmatic figure. His true story will likely never be known.
Powers and Abilities[]
Hyperman has every power within The Omniverse, to the highest degree achievable in The Omniverse. This effectively grants him Omnipotence^1, allowing him to keep up with Destroyer.
The exact means by which Hyperman obtained such abilities is unknown, though one of the most prominent theories is that he harnessed the power of Alom.
Additional Information[]
Many within the Omniverse suspect Hyperman to be the creator of The Mevalkagna, as he was the only one with both the ability and reason to do so. It is theorized that once Hyperman finally gained Omnipotence^1, he saw for the first time the devastation and oppression caused by beings as powerful as himself within the Omniverse. Thus he created The Mevalkagna to ensure no others rose to power. This would not only explain the existence of The Mevalkagna but also why Hyperman did not meddle in Omniversal affairs after escaping it despite being easily capable of doing so. However, there is no proof of this.
An alternate version of Hyperman from a different Monocosm, known as "Ven", was able to overpower and kill both Creator and Destroyer by teaming up with that Monocosm's version of the Eternal Legion. From there, he was able to create an empire containing an infinite number of Omniverses. However, he was erased by The Supergod Council as he was only able to achieve such feats due to the corruption within his Monocosm. Ven attempted to avoid his fate by tapping into the powers of Unthil. However, this failed as Unthil's Omniscient knowledge completely overwhelmed Ven's mind and caused his consciousness to fall into nonexistence. The broken mind of Ven would eventually merge with part of the External Hazard to create Venrensorys.
