Fanfic / Planetarily Annihilating Self Insertion

Planetarily Annihilating Self Insertion is a term coined by TCGM to describe the subgenre of fanfiction generally known as a Planetary Annihilation Self Insert story. This genre was created by the legendary Commander Drich with her story Commander. Since then, many authors have hopped on the interstellar bandwagon and created stories of their own with the same, or a similar, pretense. No matter who they are, though, they all agree on one important thing:

Tropes associated with these kinds of stories:

• Invincible Hero: A general rule of thumb in these stories is that the Self-Insert starts out well beyond the power level of the first universe they visit and only get's stronger the further they go across the multiverse. One of the big draws of When In Doubt, Blame the Eldar and Conquest in the Name of Advancement! is that both Avert this for one reason or another.
