History NightmareFuel / Worm

** Fan calcs, confirmed by WordOfGod, have produced exact numbers for just how durable they are. Those numbers reveal that the pressure in the sun's core is too low to damage their cores by ''fifty-one orders of magnitude''. No wonder they never die; they literally cannot be killed by anything abiding by normal laws of physics. At least one fan calc put the necessary amount of pressure to destroy an Endbringer's core at 560 Novemdecillion [=MPa=]. That's a 56 with ''sixty-one'' zeroes on the end of it. That means you could drop the equivalent of the '''observable universe''' on them and it still wouldn't be enough.

** She can create ''new species''. One of the most feared characters in the setting is a [[MinionMaster monster-spawner]] named Nilbog (see below). Panacea can do everything he can and more.

*** YMMV, but that sort of over-the-top 'statistic' can just make the whole thing [[NightmareRetardant feel like "Your heroes can't destroy my monster, it has an Infinity Plus One level shield!"]]

** Leviathan is a thirty-foot tall monster with macrohydrokinesis. Let's repeat that, he is a ''macro'' water user. He has sunk entire landmasses, has destroyed entire cities, has creates tsunamis on cue. There is also a severe water crisis in the Wormverse because he is specifically aiming for and destroying sources of fresh water in the world. He is also impossibly durable, strong, fast and utterly relentless. When he first shows up in the story, a half a dozen capes are disabled within seconds. During the attack on Brockton Bay, the strongest capes in the world barely slow him down, and he destroys half the city, killing over forty parahumans. This is considered a victory compared to what he usually does. He may actually have the highest body count among the Endbringers as he has killed millions of people in one day. He destroyed Newfoundland in 2005, and not just the settlements on it; he actually ''sank the entire island in a day'', and this is ''not'' the most destructive thing he's done. Despite all of this, he is seen as the ''weakest'' of the three.

* Throughout the story we have heard references to a Master class villain called Nilbog. He is spoken of as a monster and mentioned in the same breath as the Endbringers and the Slaughterhouse Nine. In [[http://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/11/29/interlude-16-donation-bonus/ the first arc-16 donation interlude]] we finally meet him, and he does not disappoint. What is his power? He can create mutated living creatures that have powers and seem to have feelings. They run the gambit in size, and shape but they look vaguely like people. Things like armless pregnant women that vomit up creatures and babies that have spider legs. He made things that multiply when you burn them and the government has left him alone so they don't provoke him into expanding from his little town. For the past decade he has played God with the things he creates.

-->'''Gray Boy:''' I could hurt you, like I do with most people. [[FateWorseThanDeath Hurt you while you’re looping through the same action, so you feel that pain over and over and over and over again. The only thing that doesn’t change is your brain.]] That keeps going. [[ToThePain The pain is always fresh, it never gets easier to deal with, but I’m told there’s a certain point where you crack, and you go around the bend.]] Takes a few days for most. Then you get to a point where you work through your issues. You don’t want to, but you do, because the only thing you have to occupy yourself with is the pain and your own thoughts… so you get mostly better, and then you crack up again, and you get better, and that becomes a loop of its own… [[AndIMustScream Until well after the sun goes out, they think.]] [[StoryBreakerPower Speed of thought, can’t turn it off unless I’m using it on myself, and I don’t think anyone’s immune.]]

-->“Run, little girl!” Crawler’s broken voice carried, a rumble so low I could feel it. “I’ll get free! I’ll catch you! I’ll hold you down and lick your skin until it melts! [[EyeScream I’ll pluck your eyes out with the tip of my tongue!]] [[SuperPersistentPredator I have your scent and you cannot ever stop me! You cannot ever escape!”]]

** In an impromptu game of "Weaver Dice" (a roleplaying game built around the world of Worm) one Reddit user and his friends got a set of powers to try to escape Sleeper when the whole state of Missouri had been quarantined. The user had the ability to change into lightning, blasting people with lightning bolts and moving as fast as electricity (albeit following the path of least resistance.) His girlfriend could subsume durable materials, destroying them in the process, and had the ability to change the material only if it was more durable. The girlfriend's sister had the ability to spread special crystals everywhere in a 200 meter radius, providing a good conductor for the Redditor. ''Her'' boyfriend had the ability to involuntarily detect emotions, and learning the reasons behind the emotions if he focused, making him a powerful negotiator. While the "game master" who set these powers down gave them high odds of survival by running away and making it past the quarantine, ''[[WordOfGod Wildbow himself]]'' came in and declared that everyone except the girlfriend's sister (the one with the crystals) was an utter goner, while the crystal girl surviving would take a miracle.
