History EldritchAbomination / OtherMedia

* The {{Podcast}} Podcast/CriticalHit's main antagonists are The Void, a group of insane Gods who inhabit the world's moon. They are all insane, powerful beyond belief, and have [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast wonderful names]] such as "She Who Slumbers In Agony."

** The web serial "The Kingdom" takes place in a parallel universe where, because of [[ForWantOfANail Matoro hesitating at a critical moment]], the Great Spirit Mata Nui died and the majority of the Matoran universe had to be evacuated. In the climax of the story, our Takanuva and a group of heroes from this universe confront Makuta Teridax[[note]]the original Makuta of the story, given a name after it was revealed that "Makuta" was the name of his species[[/note]], who has survived inside the wreckage of the universe for 10,000 years; he is now a proper example of this trope once more. He is described as a horrific 20-foot-tall amalgamation of the other Makuta he assimilated in order to keep himself alive; we don't get much of a description of him beyond that, which is probably for the best.

** The UltimateLifeform of a planet's biosphere, known as an Ultimate One or a TYPE, is the chosen representative to carry out the planet's will, and fittingly each one is unique for every planet. In general, they hit nearly every point of this trope; [[AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever enormous]], [[NighInvulnerability unkillable]], [[RealityWarper alter the fundamental nature of reality in their vicinity]] just by ''existing'', and have [[BlueAndOrangeMorality thought processes incomprehensible]] to humans. Oh, and the reason the Types came to Earth during ''Literature/AngelNotes'' is [[GaiasVengeance to wipe out humanity as revenge for outliving Gaia]], who died at some point in a possible future of the franchise's chronology.

** [[LightNovel/NyarukoCrawlingWithLove Nyaruko]], noted that she is Nyarlaphotep.

** Most entities included among the 27 [[TheDreaded Dead Apostle Ancestors]], which are ranked on how much threat they pose to humanity. As almost all of them are vampires (which originated from Crimson Moon Brunestud, [[AntagonistTitle Type Moon]]), it makes sense. Special mention however, goes to the top 10: especially Forest Of Einnashe (Rank 7, a living, dimension-hopping forest who became alive after the corpse of a powerful vampire was disposed of there), ORT (who is actually a TYPE, and hailed as ''the'' strongest entity on Earth before the times of ''Notes'', but is listed in rank 5 since it [[YouKillItYouBoughtIt annihilated the previous holder for disturbing its sleep]]), TYPE Moon himself (who is ironically only Rank 3) and Primate Murder (Rank 1, a mysterious lifeform created by Gaia, who despite being weaker than a Type is still capable of killing humans even ''faster'' than Type Moon can, to the point its only rival in this regard is ORT).

** The UltimateLifeform of a planet's biosphere, known as an Ultimate One or a TYPE, is the chosen representative to carry out the planet's will, and fittingly each one is unique for every planet. In general, they hit nearly every point of this trope; [[AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever enormous]], [[NighInvulnerability unkillable]], [[RealityWarper alter the fundamental nature of reality in their vicinity]] just by ''existing'', and have [[BlueAndOrangeMorality thought processes completely incomprehensible]] to humans. Oh, and the reason the Types came to Earth during ''Literature/AngelNotes'' was [[GaiasVengeance to wipe out humanity as revenge for outliving Gaua]], who died at some point in a possible future of the franchise's chronology.

** The Ultimate Ones, [[SentientCosmicForce the sentient will of every world]] (including each planet), and [[PhysicalGod their physical incarnation]], The TYPES, which hit nearly every point of this trope. Although the specifics vary, they are typically [[AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever enormous]], [[NighInvulnerability unkillable]], [[RealityWarper alter the fundamental nature of reality in their vicinity]] just by ''existing'', and have [[BlueAndOrangeMorality thought processes that are completely incomprehensible]] to us PunyEarthlings. Oh, and the reason the Types came to Earth during ''Literature/AngelNotes'' was [[GaiasVengeance to wipe out humanity as revenge for killing Gaia]].
** Most of the beings included in the [[TheDreaded Dead Apostle Ancestors]] list (a list for the top 27 beings most dangerous to humanity as a whole). Given that most of the beings listed there are vampires (originating from TYPE-Moon), it makes sense. Special mention, however, goes to the ones in top-10 ranks: especially Forest Of Einnashe (Rank-7, a living, dimension-hopping forest who became alive after the corpse of a powerful vampire was disposed of there), ORT (who is actually TYPE-Mercury, ''the'' strongest being in the franchise, but it is listed as a Rank-5 since it [[YouKillItYouBoughtIt annihilated the previous holder for disturbing its sleep]]), TYPE-Moon himself (who is ironically only Rank-3) and Primate Murder (Rank-1, a spiritual wolf created by Gaia, Ultimate One of the Earth, strong enough to annihilate the human race in mere seconds, if it is ever allowed to by his master).
** [[HumanoidAbomination The Servants]]. Souls pulled out from the cycle of death and rebirth, because they're remembered in the Collective Unconscious as "heroes". When resurrected as familiar spirits, they are completely immune to anything that is incapable of harming their spiritual bodies, and can consume human souls to empower themselves. This trope is especially true for the more powerful Servants, who can warp reality with their Noble Phantasms (A Servant's signature, most distinctive weapons or skills). To emphasise their incomprehensible nature, when a human tries to use a severed Servant's arm as a transplanted organ (since his own arm was severed), not only can said human access the memories of the Servant, the memories begin to ''completely destroy his mind''.

** ''VideoGame/FateGrandOrder'' has the 72 Demons of the Literature/ArsGoetia. They are part of a spiritual HiveMind created by the Lesser Key of Solomon, [[PureMagicBeing a magecraft ritual given will and life]]. Each of them can manifest across any point of history, and when all of them combine their power they can perform the "Ars Almadel Salomonis" which creates ''[[LightEmUp billions of destructive light across all of history]]'' to burn ''all living beings'' and turn them into magical energy for further magical rituals. Further, the kanji used for their name can be either read "Demon Gods" or "Demon Pillars", and fittingly when manifesting physically, a single demon appears as a [[AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever giant pillar of putrid black flesh]], [[EyesDoNotBelongThere encircled at intervals by glowing red eyes]]. Even without any apparent mouth, they are able to vocalize with a distorted, inhuman ''shriek''. Further, they can [[TheCorruption corrupt]] and [[DemonicPossession possess living beings]] and turn them into a physical avatar of their HiveMind.
** From the same game, there are also the Evils of Humanity, also known as Beast-class Servants or Beasts of Calamity, threatening to annihilate humanity from existence. Each of them embodies a weakness of human nature (as such, the name of "Evil" is actually a bit misleading), such as Pity[[note]]the sheer arrogance of looking down on others for being different[[/note]], Regression, Desire, Comparison, Regret, Stagnation, etc. Each takes the form of a certain Eldritch Abomination created by either the planet itself or humanity; the aforementioned Goetia demons is in fact part of Beast I, representing Pity, the Demon God King Goetia, and the aforementioned Primate Murder is actually a potential version of Beast IV, representing Comparison. Each Beast has their own unique way of instilling TheCorruption upon all life. Their worst trait, however, is that ''none'' of them naturally has ''a concept of death''. Whenever any one of them manifests, the GodzillaThreshold has to be passed just for ''a chance'' of victory.
** Outer Gods exist in the Higher Dimensions, worlds that exist above the parallel worlds and timelines that mankind resides in. By extension, the Foreigner class Servants - individuals who have a connection to the Outer Gods, tapping into their powers. That's right, it is one type of Eldritch Abomination drawing on the powers of ''even worse'' ones. It doesn't matter whether a given Foreigner is a vessel for the Outer Gods or managed to survive the experience of refusing them with their sanity intact - with few exceptions, Foreigners are ''Beast-level'' threats. And the Outer Gods themselves? They are every bit as incomprehensible here as they are in their [[Franchise/CthulhuMythos source material]]; while everything in the Nasuverse comes from a metaphysical place called "the Root of Creation" which also records the past, the present, and the future, ''Fate Grand Order'' shows that, during the very end of time, everything returns to nothingness and becomes one with the Root - everything ''except'' the Outer Gods, that is. They don't even originate from Nasuverse's reality: Nyarlathotep compares the presence of the Outer Gods in the Nasuverse is similar to a "vacation".

** ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight'' has [[spoiler:Angra Mainyu, residing inside the Grail. In the Third Holy Grail War, the Einzberns tried to game the summoning system to get an extra-class Servant in place of the Berserker slot from the seven main classes, and they got the Avenger class. Unfortunately, [[FromNobodyToNightmare he was nothing more than a normal nameless man]], who was in life [[ColdBloodedTorture horribly tortured by his fellow villagers from birth to death]], "[[CosmicPlaything to be the scapegoat for all the world's evil]]". Upon his defeat though, he ''can'' have his wish granted, since the Grail treats him as a human rather than a spirit. Naturally, [[NiceJobBreakingItHero he wishes for something to take his place]], something to shoulder all the world's evil. [[BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor He got exactly what he asked for]], a being [[TheHeartless made of every evil mankind ever has, ever will, and ever]] ''[[TheHeartless could]]'' [[TheHeartless commit]]. It consumes Avenger, and both of them are trapped inside the Grail, [[TheCorruption corrupting it]] as [[UltimateEvil Angra Mainyu]]. Immersed within it, Avenger was corrupted and hates all mankind with a passion. If it is ever released from its shell, it would bring forth about 7 billion curses towards the world in the form of a huge, organic tower that spills black mud that corrupts and burns everything in its path.]]

* ''[[Machinima/Supermarioglitchy4sSuperMario64Bloopers SMG4]]'' has [[KnightOfCerebus Ztar]], a black star who eats other stars and has a suffocating aura not unlike that of [[VideoGame/MarioAndLuigiBowsersInsideStory the Dark Star]]. There's also [[GreaterScopeVillain Zero]], who appears to be a glowing red eye shrouded in darkness with an insanely long blue arm. They are both {{Omnicidal Maniac}}s, the latter of which wants to destroy all universes one by one.
