** In the backstory, the floor Administrators of the Tower are originally thought to be absolutely unchallengeable; they can control the very physics on their respective floors, even the GodEmperor only rules by their permission, and anyone violating the rules of the Tower too much could be destroyed by the local Administrator, no matter how powerful they were. Then the [[OutsideContextProblem Irregular]] Enryu appeard on the 43rd floor and starts making trouble. The Administrator attacks him, but unlike everyone else before him, he's just ''so powerful''that he fights the Administrator and [[KillTheGod kills it]].[[note]]It's unclear that Enryu is actually a RealityWarper, but at least his mastery of [[MagicByAnyOtherName Shinsu]] is mentioned as being so supreme he can even use it to create life. So strictly speaking, this only ''may'' count.[[/note]]

** Discord can just do anything with the snap of his claws -- but after he teams up with Tirek and helps Tirek absorb vast amounts of magical power from other beings, Tirek becomes powerful enough to absorb Discord's power as well.
** The Elements of Harmony are powerful enough to defeat any evil PhysicalGod (though they're not always available to do so), including Discord -- and Tirek after the above event.

** WordOfGod also reveals that another infamous Irregular, Phantaminum, has AuthorPowers and is completely undefeatable to anyone who doesn't have the same. Thus, while the inhabitants of the Tower may speculate about who would win in a fight between him and Enryu, this implies Phantaminum is above him and the most omnipotent character in the series.

* ''VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles'': The main villain, [[spoiler:Zanza]], is described as a god who controls fate itself, and is spoken of as though omnipotent. Several demonstrations of his power do indeed seem to suggest this at first glance as well. However, Alvis points out to Shulk the obvious question: "If everything is predestined to lead to [[spoiler:Zanza's]] victory... why is it that he seeks to destroy you?" In the end, it turns out that [[spoiler:Zanza]] is not as omnipotent as he thinks he is, and the one with the real power is in fact [[spoiler:his supposed servant, Alvis]], who has engineered events to bring about his downfall without him having the slightest suspicion.

* ''{{Literature/Animorphs}}'': The Ellimist and Krayak are two vastly powerful beings who already tried to do battle in the physical realm, which resulted in massive destruction . Then it turned out neither of them were a match for a black hole, but the Ellimist (thanks to having a consciousness spread out over hundreds of ships) managed to both go in and stay out of the hole, which allowed him to manipulate space-time. Both agreed that their newfound powers (TimeTravel, TimeStandsStill, and screwing conservation of mass, among other things) would result in certain MutuallyAssuredDestruction if they kept it up, so they agreed to become Chessmasters, one promoting life throughout the glaxy, the other extinguishing it, both fighting through native agents who may or may not be aware of their existence.

* This trope was the case when eight thousand years before the main story of ''VisualNovel/KajiriKamuiKagura'' the four [[SentientCosmicForce Hadou Gods]] faced Hajun during the battle for the throne. The four Hadou Gods where all ridiculously strong, being able to affect the entire multiverse with [[StoryBreakerPower their power]]. To make the difference clear, the first three where known as the three coulours, all known fo having ridiculously broken powers. The first one was [[EternalRecurrence Mercurius]], the former owner of the throne and mastermind behind everything during the [[VisualNovel/DiesIrae prequel]], being able to throw thousands stars and easely squash a universe into a singularity. The second was [[ForeverWar Reinhard Heydrich]], who commanded an army consisting of billions of skeletons and possesed a giant amount of storybreaker powers and weapons, including the lance of Longinus which is able to [[OneHitKill erase anyone's existence with a strike]], [[UnblockableAttack always go faster than the target]] [[AlwaysAccurateAttack and can never miss]]. The third was [[TimeStop Tenma Yato]], who was able to stop time of all of existence on a conceptional level and possesed the time armor, the series' strongest defense which negates any form of damage. The last of the for Gods was Tasogare, the fifth owner of the Throne, a hyperdimensional artefact capable of manipulating all of reality, and had the guillotine curse, which kills anyone who touches her. The one who defeated them all, Hajun, on the other hand was able to do that because of the series [[PowerLevel power level]], the Taikyoku level. If one has a higher level than the opponent, then one can't be affected by the powers of the weaker one. The four Hadou Gods all had a Taikyoku value of 90 while the scale of Hajun was literally [[OverNineThousand infinite]].

* ''ComicBook/TheInfinityGauntlet'':
** In Creator/MarvelComics' ''[[ComicBook/TheInfinityGauntlet Infinity Trilogy]]'', the eponymous artifact grants the wielder omnipotence when worn. More omnipotence than even, say, the AnthropomorphicPersonification of the universe itself or all of the other {{Cosmic Being}}s of the setting ''combined''. This becomes a plot point, because ComicBook/{{Thanos}}, the wielder of the gauntlet, is tricked into thinking that the only way to effectively dominate the universe is turn ''himself'' into the universe. But the second he does, someone else takes the gauntlet from his now-abandoned body and becomes the new big kahuna.
** An even better example comes at the end of the saga. The sole being not affected by {{Reality Warp|er}}ing, the [[GuardianOfTheMultiverse Living Tribunal]], simply snaps its fingers and resets the entire universe back to normal.
* Tends to happen whenever the ComicBook/SilverSurfer rebels against his creator, ComicBook/{{Galactus}}. Or when any being he bequeathed with the Power Cosmic tries the same, for that matter. Galactus is able to take back their powers at will or override any actions they attempt to take.
* ''Comicbook/{{The Ultimates 2015}}'': When Galactus uses his powers to prevent the Ultimates from discovering TheseAreThingsManWasNotMeantToKnow, Eternity (the embodiment of the universe itself) appears and tells Galactus that ''he's'' meddling in things not meant for ''him'' to know, either.
* ''ComicBook/TheMightyThor'':
** Thor's hammer, {{Mjolnir}}, was crafted by his father [[TopGod Odin]] with the specific caveat that no-one can lift it unless they be worthy. (Specifically, worthy by ''Odin's'' standards. This means possessing traits such as honor, courage, humility, and the heart of a warrior-born. Odin can also rescind this rule temporarily at his leisure.) Mjölnir will always go through ''any'' impediments (even a planet) to return to Thor's hand, and it (usually) can't be destroyed by a force which exerts less than Odin's own power. However, the first way to know [[TheWorfEffect that a new villain is serious business]] is if they destroy, restrain or lift the hammer by sheer force.
** This becomes a plot point in ''Comicbook/{{Thor 2014}}'', as the hammer [[GrewBeyondTheirProgramming grows beyond its enchantment]] and gains the ability to choose its own wielder, rejecting both Thor Odinson and Odin in favor of the new Thor, [[spoiler:Jane Foster]]. This hints that Mjölnir has grown far more powerful than anyone could have ever imagined.
* During the ComicBook/FantasticFour quest to find the Beyonders, the team ran across the Beyonder from Secret Wars (a much lesser entity), who proved to be an incomplete Cosmic Cube, with the rest of his power residing in Molecule Man. Two beings who metamorphosed from complete Cosmic Cubes, the Shaper of Worlds and Kubik, say of Beyonder and Molecule Man both: "They can do anything. We can do ''more''."
* Creator/NeilGaiman's ''ComicBook/TheSandman'' has this in various places.
** Perhaps the most satisfying is during ''Season of Mists'', the Key to Hell arc. The demon Azazel taunts Morpheus with having his former lover inside of his body (basically AlienGeometries), and threatens that he can kill her before Morpheus can attack him unless he hands over the key. Morpheus then calmly puts him in a jar and stuffs him in a box for a few centuries to stew in his juices. He reveals that since Azazel was inside of Morpheus' domain, and his former lover ''also'' benefited from the SacredHospitality he offered to all guests his own RealityWarping [[http://lounge.moviecodec.com/images/attachment/httpwwwcomicoocomsandmansandman27htmlimage21htm-2646.jpg spectacularly trumped Azazel's.]]
** ''Franchise/JusticeLeagueOfAmerica'' villain Dr. Destiny has nigh-omnipotent power over peoples' dreams. In the first book of ''The Sandman'', he also has the Dreamstone, which gives him enough MindControl to make an entire diner full of people mutilate, rape, and eat each other over the course of a single night. When Morpheus, the creator of the stone and AnthropomorphicPersonification of dreams shows up to reclaim it, its powers, of course, do nothing to him.
* In Franchise/TheDCU (specifically the ''Creator/{{Vertigo|Comics}}'' imprint), this describes the power of the Biblical figures.
** Comicbook/{{Lucifer}}, aka the Devil, is completely omnipotent and able to warp reality to any whim he desires--except for anything vetoed by [[ArchangelMichael Michael]].
** Likewise, ArchangelMichael is the most omnipotent ''character'' in the DC Universe--but his power is nothing in comparison to {{God}}.

At other times, each deity is a PrinciplesZealot and can be undone by a LogicBomb or a bit of {{Rules Lawyer}}ing. In these cases, it doesn't matter how much power the opposition actually has, because the victim's own limits defeats them. These rules, or whoever imposes them, are what's EvenMoreOmnipotent than either god.

This is a special type of NoSell made especially for when two god-like beings collide. If two unique characters are "omnipotent", then there has to exist limits to their power. Logically speaking, two characters that can literally do '''anything''' is impossible, because just having individuality is technically a power. So in a contest of warpers, the one who will win is whoever can NoSell the most. In such a scenario, if Omnipotent Being #1 is usually able to turn anyone to salt with just a thought, Omnipotent Being #2 is either immune, or can prevent or reverse that power with their own effort.

** This becomes a plot point in ''Comicbook/{{Thor 2014}}'', in which as the hammer [[GrewBeyondTheirProgramming grows beyond its enchantment]] and gains the ability to choose its own weilder, wielder, rejecting both Thor Odinson and Odin in favor of the new Thor, [[spoiler:Jane Foster]]. This hints that Mjölnir has grown far more powerful than anyone could have ever imagined.
* During the FantasticFour ComicBook/FantasticFour quest to find the Beyonders, the team ran across the Beyonder from Secret wars Wars (a much lesser entity), who proved to be an incomplete Cosmic Cube, with the rest of his power residing in Molecule Man. Two beings who metamorphosed from complete Cosmic Cubes, the Shaper of Worlds and Kubik, say of Beyonder and Molecule Man both: "They can do anything. We can do ''more''."



** Perhaps the most satisfying is during the Key to Hell arc. The demon Azazel taunts Morpheus with having his former lover inside of his body (basically AlienGeometries), and threatens that he can kill her before Morpheus can attack him unless he hands over the key. Morpheus then calmly puts him in a jar and stuffs him in a box for a few centuries to stew in his juices. He reveals that since Azazel was inside of Morpheus' domain, and his former lover ''also'' benefited from the SacredHospitality he offered to all guests his own RealityWarping [[http://lounge.moviecodec.com/images/attachment/httpwwwcomicoocomsandmansandman27htmlimage21htm-2646.jpg spectacularly trumped Azazel's.]]
** Dr. Destiny, ''Franchise/JusticeLeague'' villain, has nigh-omnipotent power over peoples' dreams. In the first book of ''The Sandman'', he also has the Dreamstone, which gives him enough MindControl to make an entire diner full of people mutilate, rape, and eat each other over the course of a single night. When Morpheus, the creator of the stone and AnthropomorphicPersonification of dreams shows up to reclaim it, its powers, of course, do nothing to him.

* This trope was the case when eight thousand years before the main story of ''VisualNovel/KajiriKamuiKagura'' the four [[SentientCosmicForce Hadou Gods]] faced Hajun during the battle for the throne. The four Hadou Gods where all ridiculously strong, being able to affect the entire multiverse with [[StoryBreakerPower their power]]. To make the difference clear, the first three where known as the three coulours, all known fo having ridiculously broken powers. The first one was [[EternalRecurrence Mercurius]], the former owner of the throne and mastermind behind everything during the [[VisualNovel/DiesIrae prequel]], being able to throw thousands stars and easely squash a universe into a singularity. The second was [[ForeverWar Reinhard Heydrich]], who commanded an army consistend of billions of skeletons and possesed a giant amount of storybreaker powers and weapons, including the lance of Longinus which is able to [[OneHitKill erase anyone's existence with a strike]], [[UnblockableAttack always go faster than the target]] [[AlwaysAccurateAttack and can never miss]]. The third was [[TimeStop Tenma Yato]], who was able to stop time of all of existence on a conceptional level and possesed the time armor, the series' strongest defense which negates any form of damage. The last of the for Gods was Tasogare, the fifth owner of the Throne, a hyperdimensional artefact capable of manipulating all of reality, and had the guillotine curse, which kills anyone who touches her. The one who defeated them all, Hajun, on the other hand was able to do that because of the series [[PowerLevel power level]], the Taikyoku level. If one has a higher level than the opponent, then one can't be affected by the powers of the weaker one. The four Hadou Gods all had a Taikyoku value of 90 while the scale of Hajun was literally [[OverNineThousand infinite]].

* ''WebComic/{{Homestuck}}'' features characters called First Guardians who are explicitly omnipotent immortals that can teleport anywhere in the universe and give off unlimited radioactive energy. They are nowhere near the most powerful characters in the setting and handily end up being defeated by the AuthorAvatar, a character who [[SuperpowerLottery gets the best possible roll of magical dice]], a character who embodies pure Hope, and the extra-immortal, ghost-killing, and omniomnipotent Lord English.

This is a special type of NoSell made especially for when two god-like beings collide. If two unique characters are "omnipotent", then there has to exist limits to their power. Logically speaking, two characters that can literally do '''anything''' is impossible, because just having individuality is technically a power. So in a contest of warpers, the one who will win is whoever can NoSell the most. In such a scenario, if Omnipotent Being #1 is usually able to turn anyone to salt with just a thought, Omnipotent Being #2 is either immune, or can prevent or reverse #1 power with their own effort.
