|| '''''Weight Class''''' || '''Description''' || '''Example Traits and Abilities''' ||
|||||| '''Muggle Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Fragile Weight: -1''' || Characters in this weight class can't do things {{muggles}} take for granted, have next to no combat ability and may even die if left alone for too long. These characters may rely extensively on luck, outside help or constant vigilance (assuming they aren't [[TheMillstone a burden]] in the first place). Note that merely being TheLoad or [[TheChewToy dying often]] doesn't put you in this weight, nor does being [[DamselScrappy annoyingly dependent]]. This weight is for characters that are physically (or mentally) undeveloped/handicapped and ''cannot'' do what the average ''adult'' human can do. || MouseWorld, TagAlongKid, IllGirl, MadeOfPlasticine, NearlyNormalAnimal, CompanionCube ||
|| '''Muggle Weight: 0''' || These characters are not significantly stronger or weaker than normal humans, and tend to be {{Innocent Bystander}}s and (you guessed it) {{Muggle}}s. Though not necessarily humans, they should be close to normal people in ability. || RidiculouslyAverageGuy, ActionSurvivor, UnfazedEveryman, NonActionGuy ||
|| '''Iron Weight: 1''' || These characters are MadeOfIron {{Badass Normal}}s who can push the upper limits of what a human is capable of. They may have gotten TrainingFromHell, or are experts at [[ThisIndexKnowsKungFu martial arts]], GoodOldFisticuffs, GunKata, LeParkour, [[ImprobableWeaponUser Improbable Weapon Usage]] and the like, or is part of the RedShirtArmy. Basically, this is a character anyone could become, bar the setting. However, note that characters don't need to be humans to be put here. This weight is also for any natural wildlife that could take down an unarmed human single-handedly. || BadassNormal, ActionHero, RealLifeSuperPowers, BearsAreBadNews ||
|||||| '''Between Muggle Tier and Super Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Abnormal Weight: 2''' || Characters in this weight class have an ability, trait, or talent that is supernatural or superhuman, but are otherwise comparable to normal humans. However, their abilities are generally [[ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman very specific]] and [[CripplingOverspecialization limited]] and [[WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway may be useless in some situations]], rendering the characters just as helpless as normal un-powered humans. Usually, characters of this type lack the RequiredSecondaryPowers to optimize or protect themselves from their own powers. Perhaps their only powers are to cancel [[AntiMagic other]] [[PowerNullifier powers]]. Most of the time, their ability [[MugglesDoItBetter is something we can mimic or even surpass]] using common science or low-grade [[{{Cyborg}} cybernetics]]. Muggles and Irons that are [[BeastMan Beast Men]] or [[{{Cyborg}} Cyborgs]] may also end up here. || {{Transhuman}}, BeastMan, AntiMagic, PowerNullifier, SinglePowerSuperheroes, IneptMage, SuperSoldier ||
|||||| '''Super Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Super Weight: 3''' || Characters in this weight class can no longer be considered normal. Their powers may be StockSuperpowers or FunctionalMagic that, even if they are limited, may be used in a variety of ways, and tend to have RequiredSecondaryPowers. Most of your run-of-the-mill {{Super Hero}}es, {{Shounen}} characters, and [[SquishyWizard Mages]] will likely start here, possibly being [[NextTierPowerUp pushed higher as]] [[LongRunner they continue their adventures.]] || MagicAndPowers, StockSuperpowers, FunctionalMagic, OurMagesAreDifferent, OurMonstersAreDifferent ||
|| '''Hyper Weight: 4''' || These characters typically can [[PersonOfMassDestruction cause]], stop, or reverse regional scale to continental scale disasters, or [[BeyondTheImpossible break the laws of physics]] or [[RealityWarper flat out warp physics on a regional or continental scale]] with their powers. A protagonist of this weight (or higher) risks becoming a GodModeSue, because their abilities tend to be [[StoryBreakerPower story-breaking]], making it difficult to give them a [[HowToStopTheDeusExMachina plausible challenge.]] That said, a protagonist at this weight can have engaging adventures, the author just has to be careful to scale the SlidingScaleOfVillainThreat accordingly. || PersonOfMassDestruction, PersonOfMassConstruction, WeatherManipulation, ColonyDrop, DiabolicalMastermind, FlyingBrick, TheArchmage, SemiDivine ||
|| '''World Weight: 5''' || These characters have abilities that can affect entire worlds (such as Earth or other planets comparable to Earth in size) either [[WorldHealingWave positi]][[GenesisEffect vely]] or [[WorldWreckingWave nega]][[EarthShatteringKaboom tiv]][[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt ely]], or may even be a [[MotherNature manifestation of]] [[CelestialBody a planet]], [[GaiasVengeance with all that implies]]. They could even be the BackgroundMagicField, if said field is sentient. {{Reality Warper}}s who are powerful enough to create, alter, or destroy such worlds, or ones who can manipulate physics on at least a planetary scale, also go here. Many [[TheEmperor Emperors]] and {{Evil Overlord}}s end up here, especially if they're trying to TakeOverTheWorld or are [[OmnicidalManiac Omnicidal Maniacs]], though you will find their opposite in TheMessiah. || TheEmperor, EvilOverlord, WorldWreckingWave, WorldHealingWave, EarthShatteringKaboom, PlanetDestroyer, GenesisEffect, PhysicalGod, BackgroundMagicField, CelestialBody, MotherNature, TheMessiah, MessianicArchetype, SatanicArchetype ||
|||||| '''Between Super Tier and Cosmic Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Star Weight: 6''' || These characters have the capacity to control entire stars and solar systems up to entire star clusters, either [[SolarCPR positively]] or [[StarKilling negatively]]. They may even be [[CelestialBody manifestations of such stellar objects]], with all that implies. {{Reality Warper}}s with the power to create, alter, or destroy stellar objects, or ones who can manipulate [[SpaceMaster space]] and/or [[TimeMaster time]], also go here. Most {{Galactic Conquerer}}s start here. {{Sufficiently Advanced Alien}}s start here as well once they become a [[JustForFun/AbusingTheKardashevScaleForFunAndProfit Type II Civilization]]. Characters at this weight class and beyond are often capable of [[FasterThanLightTravel traveling at]] [[CasualInterstellarTravel many times the speed of light]]. || StarKilling, SolarCPR, SufficientlyAdvancedAlien, SpaceMaster, TimeMaster ||
|||||| '''Cosmic Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Cosmic Weight: 7''' || Characters that are ''this'' powerful aren't so much characters as forces of nature, wielding power to directly influence entire galaxies (such as the Milky Way or other galaxies comparable to the Milky Way in size) to entire ''universes''. As a kind of CosmicEntity, they may be a RealityWarper with galactic to universal scale ResetButton abilities, a RealityWarper with the ability to manipulate [[UsefulNotes/QuantumPhysics quantum]] [[QuantumMechanicsCanDoAnything mechanics]], a GalacticConqueror or DimensionLord, an AnthropomorphicPersonification on a galactic to universal scale, a [[CelestialBody manifestation of a galaxy to a universe]], or a SentientCosmicForce. These characters often go about their business in the universe, [[AboveGoodAndEvil unaffected by]] [[AllPowerfulBystander traditional conflicts]], for better [[CosmicHorrorStory or worse]]. || CosmicEntity, SentientCosmicForce, CosmicKeystone, AnthropomorphicPersonification, ThePowersThatBe ||
|| '''Super Cosmic Weight: 8''' || Characters in this weight class can impact the totality of TheMultiverse, and are often far more powerful than most other CosmicEntities, with the rest of the CosmicEntities being subject to the authority of these characters.

[[BecauseDestinySaysSo Destiny]]/[[YouCantFightFate Fate]] is their [[WindsOfDestinyChange play-]][[ImmuneToFate thing]]. They [[CompleteImmortality cannot be killed or destroyed by any means]]. Any limits they have are self-imposed. While this weight is almost always reserved for {{God}}, the [[AuthorAvatar Author]], and the GameMaster, characters \\\'\\\'can\\\'\\\' be written for at this level. Just don\\\'t expect it to be a normal story. As a result, a character at this level is fairly rare. || AuthorAvatar, AuthorPowers, TheOmnipotent, {{God}}, GameMaster, TheAntiGod ||

|| '''''Weight Class''''' || '''Description''' || '''Example Traits and Abilities''' ||
|||||| '''Muggle Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Fragile Weight: -1''' || Characters in this weight class can't do things {{muggles}} take for granted, have next to no combat ability and may even die if left alone for too long. These characters may rely extensively on luck, outside help or constant vigilance (assuming they aren't [[TheMillstone a burden]] in the first place). Note that merely being TheLoad or [[TheChewToy dying often]] doesn't put you in this weight, nor does being [[DamselScrappy annoyingly dependent]]. This weight is for characters that are physically (or mentally) undeveloped/handicapped and ''cannot'' do what the average ''adult'' human can do. || MouseWorld, TagAlongKid, IllGirl, MadeOfPlasticine, NearlyNormalAnimal, CompanionCube ||
|| '''Muggle Weight: 0''' || These characters are not significantly stronger or weaker than normal humans, and tend to be {{Innocent Bystander}}s and (you guessed it) {{Muggle}}s. Though not necessarily humans, they should be close to normal people in ability. || RidiculouslyAverageGuy, ActionSurvivor, UnfazedEveryman, NonActionGuy ||
|| '''Iron Weight: 1''' || These characters are MadeOfIron {{Badass Normal}}s who can push the upper limits of what a human is capable of. They may have gotten TrainingFromHell, or are experts at [[ThisIndexKnowsKungFu martial arts]], GoodOldFisticuffs, GunKata, LeParkour, [[ImprobableWeaponUser Improbable Weapon Usage]] and the like, or is part of the RedShirtArmy. Basically, this is a character anyone could become, bar the setting. However, note that characters don't need to be humans to be put here. This weight is also for any natural wildlife that could take down an unarmed human single-handedly. || BadassNormal, ActionHero, RealLifeSuperPowers, BearsAreBadNews ||
|||||| '''Between Muggle Tier and Super Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Abnormal Weight: 2''' || Characters in this weight class have an ability, trait, or talent that is supernatural or superhuman, but are otherwise comparable to normal humans. However, their abilities are generally [[ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman very specific]] and [[CripplingOverspecialization limited]] and [[WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway may be useless in some situations]], rendering the characters just as helpless as normal un-powered humans. Usually, characters of this type lack the RequiredSecondaryPowers to optimize or protect themselves from their own powers. Perhaps their only powers are to cancel [[AntiMagic other]] [[PowerNullifier powers]]. Most of the time, their ability [[MugglesDoItBetter is something we can mimic or even surpass]] using common science or low-grade [[{{Cyborg}} cybernetics]]. Muggles and Irons that are [[BeastMan Beast Men]] or [[{{Cyborg}} Cyborgs]] may also end up here. || {{Transhuman}}, BeastMan, AntiMagic, PowerNullifier, SinglePowerSuperheroes, IneptMage, SuperSoldier ||
|||||| '''Super Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Super Weight: 3''' || Characters in this weight class can no longer be considered normal. Their powers may be StockSuperpowers or FunctionalMagic that, even if they are limited, may be used in a variety of ways, and tend to have RequiredSecondaryPowers. Most of your run-of-the-mill {{Super Hero}}es, {{Shounen}} characters, and [[SquishyWizard Mages]] will likely start here, possibly being [[NextTierPowerUp pushed higher as]] [[LongRunner they continue their adventures.]] || MagicAndPowers, StockSuperpowers, FunctionalMagic, OurMagesAreDifferent, OurMonstersAreDifferent ||
|| '''Hyper Weight: 4''' || These characters typically can [[PersonOfMassDestruction cause]], stop, or reverse regional scale to continental scale disasters, or [[BeyondTheImpossible break the laws of]] or [[RealityWarper flat out warp physics]] with their powers. A protagonist of this weight (or higher) risks becoming a GodModeSue, because their abilities tend to be [[StoryBreakerPower story-breaking]], making it difficult to give them a [[HowToStopTheDeusExMachina plausible challenge.]] That said, a protagonist at this weight can have engaging adventures, the author just has to be careful to scale the SlidingScaleOfVillainThreat accordingly. || PersonOfMassDestruction, PersonOfMassConstruction, WeatherManipulation, ColonyDrop, DiabolicalMastermind, FlyingBrick, TheArchmage, SemiDivine ||
|| '''World Weight: 5''' || These characters have abilities that can affect entire worlds (such as Earth or other planets comparable to Earth in size) either [[WorldHealingWave positi]][[GenesisEffect vely]] or [[WorldWreckingWave nega]][[EarthShatteringKaboom tiv]][[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt ely]], or may even be a [[MotherNature manifestation of]] [[CelestialBody a planet]], [[GaiasVengeance with all that implies]]. They could even be the BackgroundMagicField, if said field is sentient. {{Reality Warper}}s who are powerful enough to create, alter, or destroy such worlds, or ones who can manipulate physics, also go here. Many [[TheEmperor Emperors]] and {{Evil Overlord}}s end up here, especially if they're trying to TakeOverTheWorld or are [[OmnicidalManiac Omnicidal Maniacs]], though you will find their opposite in TheMessiah. || TheEmperor, EvilOverlord, WorldWreckingWave, WorldHealingWave, EarthShatteringKaboom, PlanetDestroyer, GenesisEffect, PhysicalGod, BackgroundMagicField, CelestialBody, MotherNature, TheMessiah, MessianicArchetype, SatanicArchetype ||
|||||| '''Between Super Tier and Cosmic Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Star Weight: 6''' || These characters have the capacity to control entire stars and solar systems up to entire star clusters, either [[SolarCPR positively]] or [[StarKilling negatively]]. They may even be [[CelestialBody manifestations of such stellar objects]], with all that implies. {{Reality Warper}}s with the power to create, alter, or destroy stellar objects, or ones who can manipulate [[SpaceMaster space]] and/or [[TimeMaster time]], also go here. Most {{Galactic Conquerer}}s start here. {{Sufficiently Advanced Alien}}s start here as well once they become a [[JustForFun/AbusingTheKardashevScaleForFunAndProfit Type II Civilization]]. Characters at this weight class and beyond are often capable of [[FasterThanLightTravel traveling at]] [[CasualInterstellarTravel many times the speed of light]]. || StarKilling, SolarCPR, SufficientlyAdvancedAlien, SpaceMaster, TimeMaster ||
|||||| '''Cosmic Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Cosmic Weight: 7''' || Characters that are ''this'' powerful aren't so much characters as forces of nature, wielding power to directly influence entire galaxies (such as the Milky Way or other galaxies comparable to the Milky Way in size) to entire ''universes''. As a kind of CosmicEntity, they may be a RealityWarper with galactic to universal scale ResetButton abilities, a RealityWarper with the ability to manipulate [[UsefulNotes/QuantumPhysics quantum]] [[QuantumMechanicsCanDoAnything mechanics]], a GalacticConqueror or DimensionLord, an AnthropomorphicPersonification on a galactic to universal scale, a [[CelestialBody manifestation of a galaxy to a universe]], or a SentientCosmicForce. These characters often go about their business in the universe, [[AboveGoodAndEvil unaffected by]] [[AllPowerfulBystander traditional conflicts]], for better [[CosmicHorrorStory or worse]]. || CosmicEntity, SentientCosmicForce, CosmicKeystone, AnthropomorphicPersonification, ThePowersThatBe ||

|| \'\'\'Super Weight: 3\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can no longer be considered normal.

|| \'\'\'Hyper Weight: 4\'\'\' || These characters typically can [[PersonOfMassDestruction cause]], stop, or reverse regional scale to continental scale disasters, or [[BeyondTheImpossible break the laws of]] or [[RealityWarper flat out warp physics]] with their powers. A protagonist of this weight (or higher) risks becoming a GodModeSue, because their abilities tend to be [[StoryBreakerPower story-breaking]], making it difficult to give them a [[HowToStopTheDeusExMachina plausible challenge.]] That said, a protagonist at this weight can have engaging adventures, the author just has to be careful to scale the SlidingScaleOfVillainThreat accordingly. || PersonOfMassDestruction, WeatherManipulation, ColonyDrop, DiabolicalMastermind, FlyingBrick, TheArchmage, SemiDivine ||

They may even be [[CelestialBody manifestations of such stellar objects]], with all that implies. {{Reality Warper}}s with the power to create, alter, or destroy stellar objects, or ones who can manipulate [[SpaceMaster space]] and/or [[TimeMaster time]], also go here.

|| \'\'\'Cosmic Weight: 7\'\'\' || Characters that are \'\'this\'\' powerful aren\'t so much characters as forces of nature, wielding power to directly influence entire galaxies (such as the Milky Way or other galaxies comparable to the Milky Way in size) to entire \'\'universes\'\'. As a kind of CosmicEntity, they may be a RealityWarper with galactic to universal scale ResetButton abilities, a RealityWarper with the ability to manipulate [[UsefulNotes/QuantumPhysics quantum]] [[QuantumMechanicsCanDoAnything mechanics]], a GalacticConqueror or DimensionLord, an AnthropomorphicPersonification on a galactic to universal scale, a [[CelestialBody manifestation of a galaxy to a universe]], or a SentientCosmicForce.

|| \'\'\'Super Cosmic Weight: 8\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can impact the totality of TheMultiverse, and are often far more powerful than most other CosmicEntities, with the rest of the CosmicEntities being subject to the authority of these characters. Such characters are often either the GuardianOfTheMultiverse, the MultiversalConqueror, or \"simply\" a RealityWarper powerful enough to manipulate TheMultiverse, metaphysics such as [[WindsOfDestinyChange probability, causality, fate, and/or destiny]], or even MetaFiction such as the plot. {{Anthropomorphic Personification}}s on a scale that encompasses TheMultiverse or [[CelestialBody manifestations]] of TheMultiverse also go here.

|| \'\'\'Cosmic Weight: 7\'\'\' || Characters that are \'\'this\'\' powerful aren\'t so much characters as forces of nature, wielding power to directly influence entire galaxies (such as the Milky Way or other galaxies comparable to the Milky Way in size) to entire \'\'universes\'\'.

|| \'\'\'\'\'Weight Class\'\'\'\'\' || \'\'\'Description\'\'\' || \'\'\'Example Traits and Abilities\'\'\' ||
|||||| \'\'\'Muggle Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Fragile Weight: -1\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can\'t do things {{muggles}} take for granted, have next to no combat ability and may even die if left alone for too long. These characters may rely extensively on luck, outside help or constant vigilance (assuming they aren\'t [[TheMillstone a burden]] in the first place). Note that merely being TheLoad or [[TheChewToy dying often]] doesn\'t put you in this weight, nor does being [[DamselScrappy annoyingly dependent]]. This weight is for characters that are physically (or mentally) undeveloped/handicapped and \'\'cannot\'\' do what the average \'\'adult\'\' human can do. || MouseWorld, TagAlongKid, IllGirl, MadeOfPlasticine, NearlyNormalAnimal, CompanionCube ||
|| \'\'\'Muggle Weight: 0\'\'\' || These characters are not significantly stronger or weaker than normal humans, and tend to be {{Innocent Bystander}}s and (you guessed it) {{Muggle}}s. Though not necessarily humans, they should be close to normal people in ability. || ActionSurvivor, UnfazedEveryman, NonActionGuy ||
|| \'\'\'Iron Weight: 1\'\'\' || These characters are MadeOfIron {{Badass Normal}}s who can push the upper limits of what a human is capable of. They may have gotten TrainingFromHell, or are experts at [[ThisIndexKnowsKungFu martial arts]], GoodOldFisticuffs, GunKata, LeParkour, [[ImprobableWeaponUser Improbable Weapon Usage]] and the like, or is part of the RedShirtArmy. Basically, this is a character anyone could become, bar the setting. However, note that characters don\'t need to be humans to be put here. This weight is also for any natural wildlife that could take down an unarmed human single-handedly. || BadassNormal, ActionHero, RealLifeSuperPowers, BearsAreBadNews ||
|||||| \'\'\'Between Muggle Tier and Super Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Abnormal Weight: 2\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class have an ability, trait, or talent that is supernatural or superhuman, but are otherwise comparable to normal humans. However, their abilities are generally [[ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman very specific]] and [[CripplingOverspecialization limited]] and [[WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway may be useless in some situations]], rendering the characters just as helpless as normal un-powered humans. Usually, characters of this type lack the RequiredSecondaryPowers to optimize or protect themselves from their own powers. Perhaps their only powers are to cancel [[AntiMagic other]] [[PowerNullifier powers]]. Most of the time, their ability [[MugglesDoItBetter is something we can mimic or even surpass]] using common science or low-grade [[{{Cyborg}} cybernetics]]. Muggles and Irons that are [[BeastMan Beast Men]] or [[{{Cyborg}} Cyborgs]] may also end up here. || {{Transhuman}}, BeastMan, AntiMagic / PowerNullifier, SinglePowerSuperheroes, IneptMage, SuperSoldier ||
|||||| \'\'\'Super Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Super Weight: 3\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can no longer be considered normal. Their powers may be StockSuperpowers or FunctionalMagic that, even if they are limited, may be used in a variety of ways, and tend to have RequiredSecondaryPowers. Most of your run-of-the-mill {{Super Hero}}es, {{Shounen}} characters, and [[SquishyWizard Mages]] will likely start here, possibly being [[NextTierPowerUp pushed higher as]] [[LongRunner they continue their adventures.]] || MagicAndPowers, StockSuperpowers, FunctionalMagic, OurMagesAreDifferent, OurMonstersAreDifferent ||
|| \'\'\'Hyper Weight: 4\'\'\' || These characters typically can [[PersonOfMassDestruction cause]], stop, or reverse regional scale to continental scale disasters, or [[BeyondTheImpossible break the laws of]] or [[RealityWarper flat out warp physics]] with their powers. A protagonist of this weight (or higher) risks becoming a GodModeSue, because their abilities tend to be [[StoryBreakerPower story-breaking]], making it difficult to give them a [[HowToStopTheDeusExMachina plausible challenge.]] That said, a protagonist at this weight can have engaging adventures, the author just has to be careful to scale the SlidingScaleOfVillainThreat accordingly. || PersonOfMassDestruction, WeatherManipulation, ColonyDrop, DiabolicalMastermind, FlyingBrick, TheArchmage, SemiDivine ||
|| \'\'\'World Weight: 5\'\'\' || These characters have abilities that can affect entire worlds (such as Earth or other planets comparable to Earth in size) either [[WorldHealingWave positi]][[GenesisEffect vely]] or [[WorldWreckingWave nega]][[EarthShatteringKaboom tiv]][[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt ely]], or may even be a [[MotherNature manifestation of]] [[CelestialBody a planet]], [[GaiasVengeance with all that implies]]. They could even be the BackgroundMagicField, if said field is sentient. {{Reality Warper}}s who are powerful enough to create, alter, or destroy such worlds, or ones who can manipulate physics, also go here. Many [[TheEmperor Emperors]] and {{Evil Overlord}}s end up here, especially if they\'re trying to TakeOverTheWorld or are [[OmnicidalManiac Omnicidal Maniacs]], though you will find their opposite in TheMessiah. || TheEmperor, EvilOverlord, WorldWreckingWave, WorldHealingWave, EarthShatteringKaboom, GenesisEffect, PhysicalGod, BackgroundMagicField, CelestialBody, MotherNature, TheMessiah, MessianicArchetype, SatanicArchetype ||
|||||| \'\'\'Between Super Tier and Cosmic Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Star Weight: 6\'\'\' || These characters have the capacity to control entire stars and solar systems up to entire star clusters, either [[SolarCPR positively]] or [[StarKilling negatively]]. They may even be [[CelestialBody manifestations of such stellar objects]], with all that implies. {{Reality Warper}}s with the power to create, alter, or destroy stellar objects, or ones who can manipulate [[SpaceMaster space]] and/or [[TimeMaster time]], also go here. Most {{Galactic Conquerer}}s start here. {{Sufficiently Advanced Alien}}s start here as well once they become a [[JustForFun/AbusingTheKardashevScaleForFunAndProfit Type II Civilization]]. Characters at this weight class and beyond are often capable of [[FasterThanLightTravel traveling at]] [[CasualInterstellarTravel many times the speed of light]]. || StarKilling, SolarCPR, SufficientlyAdvancedAlien, SpaceMaster, TimeMaster ||
|||||| \'\'\'Cosmic Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Cosmic Weight: 7\'\'\' || Characters that are \'\'this\'\' powerful aren\'t so much characters as forces of nature, wielding power to directly influence entire galaxies (such as the Milky Way or other galaxies comparable to the Milky Way in size) to entire \'\'universes\'\'. As a kind of CosmicEntity, they may be a RealityWarper with galactic to universal scale ResetButton abilities, a RealityWarper with the ability to manipulate [[UsefulNotes/QuantumPhysics quantum]] [[QuantumMechanicsCanDoAnything mechanics]], a GalacticConqueror or DimensionLord, an AnthropomorphicPersonification on a galactic to universal scale, a [[CelestialBody manifestation of a galaxy to a universe]], or a SentientCosmicForce. These characters often go about their business in the universe, [[AboveGoodAndEvil unaffected by]] [[AllPowerfulBystander traditional conflicts]], for better [[CosmicHorrorStory or worse]]. || CosmicEntity, SentientCosmicForce, CosmicKeystone, AnthropomorphicPersonification, ThePowersThatBe ||
|| \'\'\'Super Cosmic Weight: 8\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can impact the totality of TheMultiverse, and are often far more powerful than most other CosmicEntities, with the rest of the CosmicEntities being subject to the authority of these characters. Such characters are often either the GuardianOfTheMultiverse, the MultiversalConqueror, or \"simply\" a RealityWarper powerful enough to manipulate TheMultiverse, metaphysics such as [[WindsOfDestinyChange probability, causality, fate, and/or destiny]], or even MetaFiction such as the plot. {{Anthropomorphic Personification}}s on a scale that encompasses TheMultiverse or [[CelestialBody manifestations]] of TheMultiverse also go here. The AbstractEater and SpacetimeEater are in this weight class as well. || GuardianOfTheMultiverse, MultiversalConqueror, AbstractEater, SpacetimeEater, WindsOfDestinyChange, CosmicRetcon, ContinuityReboot, {{Retconjuration}} ||
|| \'\'\'Author Weight: 9\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class are absolutely [[TheOmnipotent omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent omnipresent]]. They are capable of [[ThePowerOfCreation exerting their will]] on all of the totality of {{The Verse}}/{{Series Franchise}}, manipulating all [[AnotherDimension alternate dimensions, planes of existence]], [[AlternateUniverse parallel universes, possible universes]], [[AlternateTimeline timelines]], [[AlternateContinuity alternate continuities]], realities, and [[TheMultiverse Multiverses]] within said totality. They can often manipulate [[DeusExMachina even]] [[TheoryOfNarrativeCausality the plot itself]] without exception. [[BecauseDestinySaysSo Destiny]]/[[YouCantFightFate Fate]] is their [[WindsOfDestinyChange play-]][[ImmuneToFate thing]]. They [[CompleteImmortality cannot be killed or destroyed by any means]]. Any limits they have are self-imposed. While this weight is almost always reserved for {{God}}, the [[AuthorAvatar Author]], and the GameMaster, characters \'\'can\'\' be written for at this level. Just don\'t expect it to be a normal story. As a result, a character at this level is fairly rare. || AuthorAvatar, AuthorPowers, TheOmnipotent, {{God}}, GameMaster, TheAntiGod ||

|| \'\'\'\'\'Weight Class\'\'\'\'\' || \'\'\'Description\'\'\' || \'\'\'Example Traits and Abilities\'\'\' ||
|||||| \'\'\'Muggle Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Fragile Weight: -1\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can\'t do things {{muggles}} take for granted, have next to no combat ability and may even die if left alone for too long. These characters may rely extensively on luck, outside help or constant vigilance (assuming they aren\'t [[TheMillstone a burden]] in the first place). Note that merely being TheLoad or [[TheChewToy dying often]] doesn\'t put you in this weight, nor does being [[DamselScrappy annoyingly dependent]]. This weight is for characters that are physically (or mentally) undeveloped/handicapped and \'\'cannot\'\' do what the average \'\'adult\'\' human can do. || MouseWorld, TagAlongKid, IllGirl, MadeOfPlasticine, NearlyNormalAnimal, CompanionCube ||
|| \'\'\'Muggle Weight: 0\'\'\' || These characters are not significantly stronger or weaker than normal humans, and tend to be {{Innocent Bystander}}s and (you guessed it) {{Muggle}}s. Though not necessarily humans, they should be close to normal people in ability. || ActionSurvivor, UnfazedEveryman, NonActionGuy ||
|| \'\'\'Iron Weight: 1\'\'\' || These characters are MadeOfIron {{Badass Normal}}s who can push the upper limits of what a human is capable of. They may have gotten TrainingFromHell, or are experts at [[ThisIndexKnowsKungFu martial arts]], GoodOldFisticuffs, GunKata, LeParkour, [[ImprobableWeaponUser Improbable Weapon Usage]] and the like, or is part of the RedShirtArmy. Basically, this is a character anyone could become, bar the setting. However, note that characters don\'t need to be humans to be put here. This weight is also for any natural wildlife that could take down an unarmed human single-handedly. || BadassNormal, ActionHero, RealLifeSuperPowers, BearsAreBadNews ||
|||||| \'\'\'Between Muggle Tier and Super Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Abnormal Weight: 2\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class have an ability, trait, or talent that is supernatural or superhuman, but are otherwise comparable to normal humans. However, their abilities are generally [[ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman very specific]] and [[CripplingOverspecialization limited]] and [[WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway may be useless in some situations]], rendering the characters just as helpless as normal un-powered humans. Usually, characters of this type lack the RequiredSecondaryPowers to optimize or protect themselves from their own powers. Perhaps their only powers are to cancel [[AntiMagic other]] [[PowerNullifier powers]]. Most of the time, their ability [[MugglesDoItBetter is something we can mimic or even surpass]] using common science or low-grade [[{{Cyborg}} cybernetics]]. Muggles and Irons that are [[BeastMan Beast Men]] or [[{{Cyborg}} Cyborgs]] may also end up here. || {{Transhuman}}, BeastMan, AntiMagic / PowerNullifier, SinglePowerSuperheroes, IneptMage, SuperSoldier ||
|||||| \'\'\'Super Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Super Weight: 3\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can no longer be considered normal. Their powers may be StockSuperpowers or FunctionalMagic that, even if they are limited, may be used in a variety of ways, and tend to have RequiredSecondaryPowers. Most of your run-of-the-mill {{Super Hero}}es, {{Shounen}} characters, and [[SquishyWizard Mages]] will likely start here, possibly being [[NextTierPowerUp pushed higher as]] [[LongRunner they continue their adventures.]] || MagicAndPowers, StockSuperpowers, FunctionalMagic, OurMagesAreDifferent, OurMonstersAreDifferent ||
|| \'\'\'Hyper Weight: 4\'\'\' || These characters typically can [[PersonOfMassDestruction cause]], stop, or reverse regional scale to continental scale disasters, or [[BeyondTheImpossible break the laws of]] or [[RealityWarper flat out warp physics]] with their powers. A protagonist of this weight (or higher) risks becoming a GodModeSue, because their abilities tend to be [[StoryBreakerPower story-breaking]], making it difficult to give them a [[HowToStopTheDeusExMachina plausible challenge.]] That said, a protagonist at this weight can have engaging adventures, the author just has to be careful to scale the SlidingScaleOfVillainThreat accordingly. || PersonOfMassDestruction, WeatherManipulation, ColonyDrop, DiabolicalMastermind, FlyingBrick, TheArchmage, SemiDivine ||
|| \'\'\'World Weight: 5\'\'\' || These characters have abilities that can affect entire worlds (such as Earth or other planets comparable to Earth in size) either [[WorldHealingWave positi]][[GenesisEffect vely]] or [[WorldWreckingWave nega]][[EarthShatteringKaboom tiv]][[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt ely]], or may even be a [[MotherNature manifestation of]] [[CelestialBody a planet]], [[GaiasVengeance with all that implies]]. They could even be the BackgroundMagicField, if said field is sentient. {{Reality Warper}}s who are powerful enough to create, alter, or destroy such worlds, or ones who can manipulate physics, also go here. Many [[TheEmperor Emperors]] and {{Evil Overlord}}s end up here, especially if they\'re trying to TakeOverTheWorld or are [[OmnicidalManiac Omnicidal Maniacs]], though you will find their opposite in TheMessiah. || TheEmperor, EvilOverlord, WorldWreckingWave, WorldHealingWave, EarthShatteringKaboom, GenesisEffect, PhysicalGod, BackgroundMagicField, CelestialBody, MotherNature, TheMessiah, MessianicArchetype, SatanicArchetype ||
|||||| \'\'\'Between Super Tier and Cosmic Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Star Weight: 6\'\'\' || These characters have the capacity to control entire stars and solar systems up to entire star clusters, either [[SolarCPR positively]] or [[StarKilling negatively]]. They may even be [[CelestialBody manifestations of such stellar objects]], with all that implies. {{Reality Warper}}s with the power to create, alter, or destroy stellar objects, or ones who can manipulate [[SpaceMaster space]] and/or [[TimeMaster time]], also go here. Most {{Galactic Conquerer}}s start here. {{Sufficiently Advanced Alien}}s start here as well once they become a [[JustForFun/AbusingTheKardashevScaleForFunAndProfit Type II Civilization]]. Characters at this weight class and beyond are often capable of [[FasterThanLightTravel traveling at]] [[CasualInterstellarTravel many times the speed of light]]. || StarKilling, SolarCPR, SufficientlyAdvancedAlien, SpaceMaster, TimeMaster ||
|||||| \'\'\'Cosmic Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Cosmic Weight: 7\'\'\' || Characters that are \'\'this\'\' powerful aren\'t so much characters as forces of nature, wielding power to directly influence entire galaxies (such as the Milky Way or other galaxies comparable to the Milky Way in size) to entire \'\'universes\'\'. As a kind of CosmicEntity, they may be a RealityWarper with galactic to universal scale ResetButton abilities, a RealityWarper with the ability to manipulate [[UsefulNotes/QuantumPhysics quantum]] [[QuantumMechanicsCanDoAnything mechanics]], a GalacticConqueror or DimensionLord, an AnthropomorphicPersonification on a galactic to universal scale, a [[CelestialBody manifestation of a galaxy to a universe]], or a SentientCosmicForce. These characters often go about their business in the universe, [[AboveGoodAndEvil unaffected by]] [[AllPowerfulBystander traditional conflicts]], for better [[CosmicHorrorStory or worse]]. || CosmicEntity, SentientCosmicForce, CosmicKeystone, AnthropomorphicPersonification, ThePowersThatBe ||
|| \'\'\'Super Cosmic Weight: 8\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can impact the totality of TheMultiverse, and are often far more powerful than most other CosmicEntities, with the rest of the CosmicEntities being subject to the authority of these characters. Such characters are often either the GuardianOfTheMultiverse, the MultiversalConqueror, or \"simply\" a RealityWarper powerful enough to manipulate TheMultiverse, metaphysics such as [[WindsOfDestinyChange probability, causality, fate, and/or destiny]], or even MetaFiction such as the plot. {{Anthropomorphic Personification}}s on a scale that encompasses TheMultiverse or [[CelestialBody manifestations]] of TheMultiverse also go here. The AbstractEater and SpacetimeEater are in this weight class as well. || GuardianOfTheMultiverse, MultiversalConqueror, AbstractEater, SpacetimeEater, WindsOfDestinyChange, CosmicRetcon, ContinuityReboot, {{Retconjuration}} ||
|| \'\'\'Author Weight: 9\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class are absolutely [[TheOmnipotent omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent omnipresent]]. They are capable of [[ThePowerOfCreation exerting their will]] on all of the totality of {{The Verse}}/{{Series Franchise}}, manipulating all [[AnotherDimension alternate dimensions, planes of existence]], [[AlternateUniverse parallel universes, possible universes]], [[AlternateTimeline timelines]], [[AlternateContinuity alternate continuities]], realities, and [[TheMultiverse Multiverses]] within said totality. They can often manipulate [[DeusExMachina even]] [[TheoryOfNarrativeCausality the plot itself]] without exception. [[BecauseDestinySaysSo Destiny]]/[[YouCantFightFate Fate]] is their [[WindsOfDestinyChange play-]][[ImmuneToFate thing]]. They [[CompleteImmortality cannot be killed or destroyed by any means]]. Any limits they have are self-imposed. While this weight is almost always reserved for {{God}}, the [[AuthorAvatar Author]], and the GameMaster, characters \'\'can\'\' be written for at this level. Just don\'t expect it to be a normal story. As a result, a character at this level is fairly rare. || AuthorAvatar, AuthorPowers, TheOmnipotent, {{God}}, GameMaster, TheAntiGod ||

As a kind of CosmicEntity, they may be a RealityWarper with galactic to universal scale ResetButton abilities, a RealityWarper with the ability to manipulate [[UsefulNotes/QuantumPhysics quantum]] [[QuantumMechanicsCanDoAnything mechanics]], a GalacticConqueror or DimensionLord, an AnthropomorphicPersonification on a galactic to universal scale, a [[CelestialBody manifestation of a galaxy to a universe]], or a SentientCosmicForce.

|| '''''Weight Class''''' || '''Description''' || '''Example Traits and Abilities''' ||
|||||| '''Muggle Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Fragile Weight: -1''' || Characters in this weight class can't do things {{muggles}} take for granted, have next to no combat ability and may even die if left alone for too long. These characters may rely extensively on luck, outside help or constant vigilance (assuming they aren't [[TheMillstone a burden]] in the first place). Note that merely being TheLoad or [[TheChewToy dying often]] doesn't put you in this weight, nor does being [[DamselScrappy annoyingly dependent]]. This weight is for characters that are physically (or mentally) undeveloped/handicapped and ''cannot'' do what the average ''adult'' human can do. || MouseWorld, TagAlongKid, IllGirl, MadeOfPlasticine, NearlyNormalAnimal, CompanionCube ||
|| '''Muggle Weight: 0''' || These characters are not significantly stronger or weaker than normal humans, and tend to be {{Innocent Bystander}}s and (you guessed it) {{Muggle}}s. Though not necessarily humans, they should be close to normal people in ability. || ActionSurvivor, UnfazedEveryman, NonActionGuy ||
|| '''Iron Weight: 1''' || These characters are MadeOfIron {{Badass Normal}}s who can push the upper limits of what a human is capable of. They may have gotten TrainingFromHell, or are experts at [[ThisIndexKnowsKungFu martial arts]], GoodOldFisticuffs, GunKata, LeParkour, [[ImprobableWeaponUser Improbable Weapon Usage]] and the like, or is part of the RedShirtArmy. Basically, this is a character anyone could become, bar the setting. However, note that characters don't need to be humans to be put here. This weight is also for any natural wildlife that could take down an unarmed human single-handedly. || BadassNormal, ActionHero, RealLifeSuperPowers, BearsAreBadNews ||
|||||| '''Between Muggle Tier and Super Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Abnormal Weight: 2''' || Characters in this weight class have an ability, trait, or talent that is supernatural or superhuman, but are otherwise comparable to normal humans. However, their abilities are generally [[ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman very specific]] and [[CripplingOverspecialization limited]] and [[WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway may be useless in some situations]], rendering the characters just as helpless as normal un-powered humans. Usually, characters of this type lack the RequiredSecondaryPowers to optimize or protect themselves from their own powers. Perhaps their only powers are to cancel [[AntiMagic other]] [[PowerNullifier powers]]. Most of the time, their ability [[MugglesDoItBetter is something we can mimic or even surpass]] using common science or low-grade [[{{Cyborg}} cybernetics]]. Muggles and Irons that are [[BeastMan Beast Men]] or [[{{Cyborg}} Cyborgs]] may also end up here. || {{Transhuman}}, BeastMan, AntiMagic / PowerNullifier, SinglePowerSuperheroes, IneptMage, SuperSoldier ||
|||||| '''Super Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Super Weight: 3''' || Characters in this weight class can no longer be considered normal. Their powers may be StockSuperpowers or FunctionalMagic that, even if they are limited, may be used in a variety of ways, and tend to have RequiredSecondaryPowers. Most of your run-of-the-mill {{Super Hero}}es, {{Shounen}} characters, and [[SquishyWizard Mages]] will likely start here, possibly being [[NextTierPowerUp pushed higher as]] [[LongRunner they continue their adventures.]] || MagicAndPowers, StockSuperpowers, FunctionalMagic ||
|| '''Hyper Weight: 4''' || These characters typically can [[PersonOfMassDestruction cause]], stop, or reverse large scale disasters, or [[BeyondTheImpossible break the laws of]] or [[RealityWarper flat out warp physics]] with their powers. A protagonist of this weight (or higher) risks becoming a GodModeSue, because their abilities tend to be [[StoryBreakerPower story-breaking]], making it difficult to give them a [[HowToStopTheDeusExMachina plausible challenge.]] That said, a protagonist at this weight can have engaging adventures, the author just has to be careful to scale the SlidingScaleOfVillainThreat accordingly. || PersonOfMassDestruction, WeatherManipulation, ColonyDrop, DiabolicalMastermind, FlyingBrick, TheArchmage ||
|| '''World Weight: 5''' || These characters have abilities that can affect entire worlds (such as Earth or other planets comparable to Earth in size) either [[WorldHealingWave positi]][[GenesisEffect vely]] or [[WorldWreckingWave nega]][[EarthShatteringKaboom tiv]][[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt ely]], or may even be a [[MotherNature manifestation of]] [[CelestialBody a planet]], [[GaiasVengeance with all that implies]]. They could even be the BackgroundMagicField, if said field is sentient. {{Reality Warper}}s who are powerful enough to create, alter, or destroy such worlds, or ones who can manipulate physics, also go here. Many [[TheEmperor Emperors]] and {{Evil Overlord}}s end up here, especially if they're trying to TakeOverTheWorld or are [[OmnicidalManiac Omnicidal Maniacs]], though you will find their opposite in TheMessiah. || TheEmperor, EvilOverlord, WorldWreckingWave, WorldHealingWave, EarthShatteringKaboom, GenesisEffect, PhysicalGod, BackgroundMagicField, CelestialBody, MotherNature, TheMessiah, MessianicArchetype, SatanicArchetype ||
|||||| '''Between Super Tier and Cosmic Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Star Weight: 6''' || These characters have the capacity to control entire stars and solar systems up to entire star clusters, either [[SolarCPR positively]] or [[StarKilling negatively]]. They may even be [[CelestialBody manifestations of such stellar objects]], with all that implies. {{Reality Warper}}s with the power to create, alter, or destroy stellar objects, or ones who can manipulate [[SpaceMaster space]] and/or [[TimeMaster time]], also go here. Most {{Galactic Conquerer}}s start here. {{Sufficiently Advanced Alien}}s start here as well once they become a [[JustForFun/AbusingTheKardashevScaleForFunAndProfit Type II Civilization]]. Characters at this weight class and beyond are often capable of [[FasterThanLightTravel traveling at]] [[CasualInterstellarTravel many times the speed of light]]. || StarKilling, SolarCPR, SufficientlyAdvancedAlien, SpaceMaster, TimeMaster ||
|||||| '''Cosmic Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Cosmic Weight: 7''' || Characters that are ''this'' powerful aren't so much characters as forces of nature, wielding power to directly influence entire galaxies (such as the Milky Way or other galaxies comparable to the Milky Way in size) to entire ''universes''. As a kind of CosmicEntity, they may be a RealityWarper with galactic to universal scale ResetButton abilities, a RealityWarper with the ability to manipulate [[UsefulNotes/QuantumPhysics quantum]] [[QuantumMechanicsCanDoAnything mechanics]], a GalacticConqueror or DimensionLord, an AnthropomorphicPersonification on a galactic to universal scale, a [[CelestialBody manifestation of a galaxy to a universe]], or a SentientCosmicForce. These characters often go about their business in the universe, [[AboveGoodAndEvil unaffected by]] [[AllPowerfulBystander traditional conflicts]], for better [[CosmicHorrorStory or worse]]. || CosmicEntity, SentientCosmicForce, CosmicKeystone, AnthropomorphicPersonification, ThePowersThatBe ||
|| '''Super Cosmic Weight: 8''' || Characters in this weight class can impact the totality of TheMultiverse, and are often far more powerful than most other CosmicEntities, with the rest of the CosmicEntities being subject to the authority of these characters. Such characters are often either the GuardianOfTheMultiverse, the MultiversalConqueror, or

A protagonist of this weight (or higher) risks becoming a GodModeSue, because their abilities tend to be [[StoryBreakerPower story-breaking]], making it difficult to give them a [[HowToStopTheDeusExMachina plausible challenge.]] That said, a protagonist at this weight can have engaging adventures, the author just has to be careful to scale the SlidingScaleOfVillainThreat accordingly. || PersonOfMassDestruction, WeatherManipulation ||
|| \'\'\'Meta Weight: 5\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class have the capabilities to affect entire continents or landmasses with their abilities, and can often shape and change the face of a planet.

|| \'\'\'Cosmic Weight: 8\'\'\' || Characters that are \'\'this\'\' powerful aren\'t so much characters as forces of nature, wielding power to directly influence entire galaxies (such as the Milky Way or other galaxies comparable to the Milky Way in size) to entire \'\'universes\'\'. As a kind of CosmicEntity, they may be a RealityWarper with galactic to universal scale ResetButton abilities, a RealityWarper with the ability to manipulate [[UsefulNotes/QuantumPhysics quantum]] [[QuantumMechanicsCanDoAnything mechanics]], a GalacticConqueror or DimensionLord, an AnthropomorphicPersonification on a galactic to universal scale, a [[CelestialBody manifestation of a galaxy to a universe]], or a SentientCosmicForce.

|| \'\'\'Super Cosmic Weight: 9\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can impact the totality of TheMultiverse, and are often far more powerful than most other CosmicEntities, with the rest of the CosmicEntities being subject to the authority of these characters. Such characters are often either the GuardianOfTheMultiverse, the MultiversalConqueror, or \"simply\" a RealityWarper powerful enough to manipulate TheMultiverse or metaphysics such as [[WindsOfDestinyChange probability, causality, fate, and/or destiny]]. {{Anthropomorphic Personification}}s on a scale that encompasses TheMultiverse or [[CelestialBody manifestations]] of TheMultiverse also go here.

They wield capabilities to manipulate the totality of sets beyond TheMultiverse itself with \'\'very\'\' few limitations, and can only be affected by characters within the same weight class or in the Author Weight. These characters are likely to have a [[MetaFiction metafictional component]] to their existence.

|| '''Hyper Weight: 4''' || These characters typically can [[PersonOfMassDestruction cause]], stop, or reverse [[ApocalypseHow/Class0 Regional Catastrophes]], or [[BeyondTheImpossible defy]] [[RealityWarper physics]] with their powers. A protagonist of this weight (or higher) risks becoming a GodModeSue, because their abilities tend to be [[StoryBreakerPower story-breaking]], making it difficult to give them a [[HowToStopTheDeusExMachina plausible challenge.]] That said, a protagonist at this weight can have engaging adventures, the author just has to be careful to scale the SlidingScaleOfVillainThreat accordingly. || PersonOfMassDestruction, PowerOfTheStorm ||
|| '''Meta Weight: 5''' || Characters in this weight class have the capabilities to affect entire continents or landmasses with their abilities, and can often shape and change the face of a planet. These characters often have comparable power to a ColonyDrop of a large asteroid, and may have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that can stimulate ToonPhysics.

They could even be the BackgroundMagicField, if said field is sentient. {{Reality Warper}}s who are powerful enough to create, alter, or destroy such worlds, or ones who can manipulate physics, also go here.

|| '''Cosmic Weight: 8''' || Characters that are ''this'' powerful aren't so much characters as forces of nature, wielding power to directly influence entire galaxies (such as the Milky Way or other galaxies comparable to the Milky Way in size) to entire ''universes''. As a kind of CosmicEntity, they may be a RealityWarper with the power to manipulate entire galaxies to universes, a RealityWarper with ResetButton abilities, a RealityWarper with the ability to manipulate [[UsefulNotes/QuantumPhysics quantum]] [[QuantumMechanicsCanDoAnything mechanics]], a GalacticConqueror or DimensionLord, an AnthropomorphicPersonification on a galactic to universal scale, a [[CelestialBody manifestation of a galaxy to a universe]], or a SentientCosmicForce.

|| '''Super Cosmic Weight: 9''' || Characters in this weight class can operate beyond a single universe and affect multiple universes within TheMultiverse, but not directly influence the totality of TheMultiverse. Such characters are likely to have some tier of [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence spacetime transcendence]] and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that allows them to manipulate and metaphysics such as [[WindsOfDestinyChange probability, causality, fate, and/or destiny]] or even [[MoreThanInfinite different degrees]] [[EvenMoreOmnipotent of]] [[{{Infinite}} infinity]].

They wield capabilities to manipulate the totality of sets beyond TheMultiverse itself with \'\'very\'\' few limitations, and can only be affected by characters within the same weight class or in the Author Weight. These characters are likely to have a [[MetaFiction metafictional component]] to their existence.

Characters at this weight class and beyond are often capable of [[FasterThanLightTravel traveling at]] [[CasualInterstellarTravel many times the speed of light.]] || StarKilling, SolarCPR, SufficientlyAdvancedAlien ||
|| '''Cosmic Weight: 8''' || Characters that are ''this'' powerful aren't so much characters as forces of nature, wielding power to directly influence entire galaxies (such as the Milky Way or other galaxies comparable to the Milky Way in size) to entire ''universes''. As a kind of CosmicEntity, they may be a RealityWarper with the power to manipulate entire galaxies to universes, a RealityWarper with ResetButton abilities, a RealityWarper with the ability to manipulate metaphysics such as [[WindsOfDestinyChange causality or probability]], a GalacticConqueror or DimensionLord, an AnthropomorphicPersonification on a galactic to universal scale, a [[CelestialBody manifestation of a galaxy to even a universe]], or a SentientCosmicForce. These characters often go about their business in the universe, [[AboveGoodAndEvil unaffected by]] [[AllPowerfulBystander traditional conflicts]], for better [[CosmicHorrorStory or worse]]. || CosmicEntity, SentientCosmicForce, CosmicKeystone ||
|| '''Super Cosmic Weight: 9''' || Characters in this weight class can operate beyond a single universe and affect multiple universes within TheMultiverse, but not directly influence the totality of TheMultiverse. Such characters are likely to have some tier of [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence spacetime transcendence]] and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that allows them to manipulate and [[AnthropomorphicPersonification embody]] even [[MoreThanInfinite different degrees]] [[EvenMoreOmnipotent of]] [[{{Infinite}} infinity]]. The SpacetimeEater is in this weight class, along with MoreThanInfinite {{Cosmic Entities}}. || SpacetimeEater, Infinite, MoreThanInfinite ||
|||||| '''Between Cosmic Tier and Supreme Being Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Hyper Cosmic Weight: 10''' || Characters in this weight class can impact the totality of TheMultiverse, and are often far more powerful than most other CosmicEntities. Such characters are often either the GuardianOfTheMultiverse or the MultiversalConqueror. {{Anthropomorphic Personification}}s on a [[TheMultiverse Multiversal scale]] or [[CelestialBody manifestations]] of TheMultiverse also go here. The AbstractEater is in this weight class as well. || GuardianOfTheMultiverse, MultiversalConqueror, AbstractEater ||
|||||| '''Supreme Being Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Meta Cosmic Weight: 11''' || Characters in this weight class are all but unopposed, due to being [[TheOmnipotent nigh-omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient nigh-omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent nigh-omnipresent]]. They wield capabilities to manipulate the totality of sets beyond TheMultiverse up to the totality of {{The Verse}}/{{Series Franchise}} itself with ''very'' few limitations, and can only be affected by characters within the same weight class or in the Author Weight. These characters are likely to have a [[MetaFiction metafictional component]] to their existence. As such, these entities often have a [[MetaFiction metafictional component]] to their powers and abilities, and can usually [[{{Retconjuration}} cause]] a CosmicRetcon or ContinuityReboot. || TheOmnipotent (of the third type), CosmicRetcon, ContinuityReboot, {{Retconjuration}} ||
|| '''Author Weight: 12''' || Characters in this weight class are absolutely [[TheOmnipotent Omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient Omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent Omnipresent]]. They are capable of [[ThePowerOfCreation exerting their will]] on all of the totality of {{The Verse}}/{{Series Franchise}}, manipulating all [[AnotherDimension alternate dimensions, planes of existence]], [[AlternateUniverse parallel universes, possible universes]], [[AlternateTimeline timelines]], [[AlternateContinuity alternate continuities]], realities, [[TheMultiverse Multiverses]], and sets beyond Multiverses within said totality. They can often manipulate [[DeusExMachina even]] [[TheoryOfNarrativeCausality the plot itself]] without exception. [[BecauseDestinySaysSo Destiny]]/[[YouCantFightFate Fate]] is their [[WindsOfDestinyChange play-thing]]. They [[CompleteImmortality cannot be killed or destroyed by any means]]. Any limits they have are self-imposed. While this weight is almost always reserved for {{God}}, the [[AuthorAvatar Author]], and the GameMaster, characters ''can'' be written for at this level. Just don't expect it to be a normal story. As a result, a character at this level is fairly rare. || AuthorAvatar, AuthorPowers, TheOmnipotent (of the first type and second type), {{God}}, MemeticBadass, GameMaster, TheAntiGod ||
|| '''Omni-Creator Weight: Ω''' || Characters in this weight have [[TheOmnipotent transfictional Omnipotence]], and likely [[TheOmniscient transfictional Omniscience]] and [[TheOmnipresent transfictional Omnipresence]]. Such characters are capable of exerting their will on multiple [[TheVerse Verses]] or [[SeriesFranchise Series Franchises]], up to ''all of fiction'' and even RealLife itself. These entities often even [[BeyondTheImpossible transcend being fictional characters]], thus becoming true [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ein_Sof Ein Sofs]], beings that are boundlessly above absolutely everything, including existence and nonexistence, possibility, causality, dualism and non-dualism, the concepts of life and death, and their analogues at any level. || [[http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Omni-Creator The Omni-Creator]] ||

Note that merely being TheLoad or [[TheChewToy dying often]] doesn\'t put you in this weight, nor does being [[DamselScrappy annoyingly dependent]].

|| \'\'\'Muggle Weight: 0\'\'\' || These characters are not significantly stronger or weaker than normal humans, and tend to be {{Innocent Bystander}}s and (you guessed it) {{Muggle}}s.

|| \'\'\'Iron Weight: 1\'\'\' || These characters are MadeOfIron {{Badass Normal}}s who can push the upper limits of what a human is capable of. They may have gotten TrainingFromHell, or are experts at [[ThisIndexKnowsKungFu martial arts]], GoodOldFisticuffs, GunKata, LeParkour, [[ImprobableWeaponUser Improbable Weapon Usage]] and the like, or is part of the RedShirtArmy.

|||||| \'\'\'Between Muggle Tier and Super Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Abnormal Weight: 2\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class have an ability, trait, or talent that is supernatural or superhuman, but are otherwise comparable to normal humans.

|| \'\'\'Meta Weight: 5\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class have the capabilities to affect entire continents or landmasses with their abilities, and can often shape and change the face of a planet. These characters often have comparable power to a ColonyDrop of a large asteroid, and may have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that can stimulate ToonPhysics.

Basically, this is a character anyone could become, bar the setting. However, note that characters don't need to be humans to be put here. This weight is also for any natural wildlife that could take down an unarmed human single-handedly. || BadassNormal, ActionHero, RealLifeSuperPowers, BearsAreBadNews ||
|||||| '''Between Muggle Tier and Super Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Abnormal Weight: 2''' || Characters in this weight class have an ability, trait, or talent that is supernatural or superhuman, but are otherwise comparable to normal humans. However, their abilities are generally [[ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman very specific]] and [[CripplingOverspecialization limited]] and [[WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway may be useless in some situations]], rendering the characters just as helpless as normal un-powered humans. Usually, characters of this type lack the RequiredSecondaryPowers to optimize or protect themselves from their own powers. Perhaps their only powers are to cancel [[AntiMagic other]] [[PowerNullifier powers]]. Most of the time, their ability [[MugglesDoItBetter is something we can mimic or even surpass]] using common science or low-grade [[{{Cyborg}} cybernetics]]. Muggles and Irons that are [[BeastMan Beast Men]] or [[{{Cyborg}} Cyborgs]] may also end up here. || {{Transhuman}}, BeastMan, AntiMagic / PowerNullifier, SinglePowerSuperheroes ||
|||||| '''Super Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Super Weight: 3''' || Characters in this weight class can no longer be considered normal. Their powers may be StockSuperpowers or FunctionalMagic that, even if they are limited, may be used in a variety of ways, and tend to have RequiredSecondaryPowers. Most of your run-of-the-mill {{Super Hero}}es, {{Shounen}} characters, and [[SquishyWizard Mages]] will likely start here, possibly being [[NextTierPowerUp pushed higher as]] [[LongRunner they continue their adventures.]] || MagicAndPowers, StockSuperpowers, FunctionalMagic ||
|| '''Hyper Weight: 4''' || These characters typically can [[PersonOfMassDestruction cause]], stop, or reverse regional scale disasters, or [[BeyondTheImpossible defy]] [[RealityWarper physics]] with their powers. A protagonist of this weight (or higher) risks becoming a GodModeSue, because their abilities tend to be [[StoryBreakerPower story-breaking]], making it difficult to give them a [[HowToStopTheDeusExMachina plausible challenge.]] That said, a protagonist at this weight can have engaging adventures, the author just has to be careful to scale the SlidingScaleOfVillainThreat accordingly. || PersonOfMassDestruction, PowerOfTheStorm ||
|| '''Meta Weight: 5''' || Characters in this weight class have the capabilities to affect entire continents or landmasses with their abilities, and can often shape and change the face of a planet. These characters often have comparable power to a ColonyDrop of a large asteroid, and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that can stimulate ToonPhysics. Most {{Diabolical Mastermind}}s and [[TheArchmage Archmages]] end up here. A FlyingBrick often begins his adventures at this weight class as well. || ColonyDrop, DiabolicalMastermind, FlyingBrick, TheArchmage||
|||||| '''Between Super Tier and Cosmic Tier''' ||||||
|| '''World Weight: 6''' || These characters have abilities that can affect entire worlds (such as Earth or other planets comparable to Earth in size) either [[WorldHealingWave positively]] or [[WorldWreckingWave nega]][[EarthShatteringKaboom tiv]][[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt ely]], or may even be a [[MotherNature manifestation of]] [[CelestialBody a planet]], [[GaiasVengeance with all that implies]]. They could even be the BackgroundMagicField, if said field is sentient. {{Reality Warper}}s who are powerful enough to create, alter, or destroy such worlds also go here. Many [[TheEmperor Emperors]] and {{Evil Overlord}}s end up here, especially if they're trying to TakeOverTheWorld or are [[OmnicidalManiac Omnicidal Maniacs]], though you will find their opposite in TheMessiah. || TheEmperor, EvilOverlord, WorldWreckingWave, WorldHealingWave, EarthShatteringKaboom, GenesisEffect, PhysicalGod, BackgroundMagicField, CelestialBody, MotherNature, TheMessiah, MessianicArchetype, SatanicArchetype ||
|||||| '''Cosmic Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Star Weight: 7''' || These characters have the capacity to control entire stars and solar systems up to entire star clusters, either [[SolarCPR positively]] or [[StarKilling negatively]]. They may even be [[CelestialBody manifestations of such stellar objects]], with all that implies. {{Reality Warper}}s with the power to create, alter, or destroy stellar objects also go here. Most {{Galactic Conquerer}}s start here. {{Sufficiently Advanced Alien}}s start here as well once they become a [[JustForFun/AbusingTheKardashevScaleForFunAndProfit Type II Civilization]]. Characters at this weight class and beyond are often capable of [[FasterThanLightTravel traveling at]] [[CasualInterstellarTravel many times the speed of light.]] || StarKilling, SolarCPR, SufficientlyAdvancedAlien ||
|| '''Cosmic Weight: 8''' || Characters that are ''this'' powerful aren't so much characters as forces of nature, wielding power to directly influence entire galaxies (such as the Milky Way or other galaxies comparable to the Milky Way in size) to entire ''universes''. As a kind of CosmicEntity, they may be a RealityWarper with the power to manipulate entire galaxies to universes, a RealityWarper with ResetButton abilities, a RealityWarper with the ability to manipulate metaphysics on a galactic to universal scale, such as [[WindsOfDestinyChange causality or probability]], a GalacticConqueror or DimensionLord, an AnthropomorphicPersonification on a galactic to universal scale, a [[CelestialBody manifestation of a galaxy to even a universe]], or a SentientCosmicForce. These characters often go about their business in the universe, [[AboveGoodAndEvil unaffected by]] [[AllPowerfulBystander traditional conflicts]], for better [[CosmicHorrorStory or worse]]. || CosmicEntity, SentientCosmicForce, CosmicKeystone ||
|| '''Super Cosmic Weight: 9''' || Characters in this weight class can operate beyond a single universe and affect multiple universes within TheMultiverse, but not directly influence the totality of TheMultiverse. Such characters are likely to have some tier of [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence spacetime transcendence]] and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that allows them to manipulate and {{AnthropomorphicPersonification embody}} even [[MoreThanInfinite different degrees]] [[EvenMoreOmnipotent of infinity]]. The SpacetimeEater is in this weight class, along with MoreThanInfinite {{Cosmic Entities}}. || SpacetimeEater, MoreThanInfinite ||
|||||| '''Between Cosmic Tier and Supreme Being Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Hyper Cosmic Weight: 10''' || Characters in this weight class can impact the totality of TheMultiverse, and are often far more powerful than most other {{Cosmic Entities}}. Such characters are often either the GuardianOfTheMultiverse or the MultiversalConqueror. {{Anthropomorphic Personification}}s on a [[TheMultiverse Multiversal scale]] or [[CelestialBody manifestations]] of TheMultiverse also go here. The AbstractEater is in this weight class as well. || GuardianOfTheMultiverse, MultiversalConqueror, AbstractEater ||
|||||| '''Supreme Being Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Meta Cosmic Weight: 11''' || Characters in this weight class are all but unopposed, due to being [[TheOmnipotent nigh-omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient nigh-omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent nigh-omnipresent]]. They wield capabilities to manipulate the totality of {{The Verse}}/{{Series Franchise}} (if said totality exists beyond TheMultiverse) with ''very'' few limitations, and can only be affected by characters within the same weight class or in the Author Weight. These characters are likely to have a [[MetaFiction metafictional component]] to their existence. As such, these entities often have a [[MetaFiction metafictional component]] to their powers and abilities, and can usually [[{{Retconjuration}} cause]] a CosmicRetcon or ContinuityReboot. || TheOmnipotent (of the third type), CosmicRetcon, ContinuityReboot, {{Retconjuration}} ||
|| '''Author Weight: 12''' || Characters in this weight class are absolutely [[TheOmnipotent Omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient Omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent Omnipresent]]. They are capable of [[ThePowerOfCreation exerting their will]] on all of the totality of {{The Verse}}/{{Series Franchise}} or [[DeusExMachina even]] [[TheoryOfNarrativeCausality the plot itself]] without exception. [[BecauseDestinySaysSo Destiny]]/[[YouCantFightFate Fate]] is their [[WindsOfDestinyChange play-thing]]. They [[CompleteImmortality cannot be killed or destroyed by any means]]. Any limits they have are self-imposed. While this weight is almost always reserved for {{God}}, the [[AuthorAvatar Author]], and the GameMaster, characters ''can'' be written for at this level. Just don't expect it to be a normal story. As a result, a character at this level is fairly rare. || AuthorAvatar, AuthorPowers, TheOmnipotent (of the first type and second type), {{God}}, MemeticBadass, GameMaster, TheAntiGod ||
|| '''Omni-Creator Weight: Ω''' || Characters in this weight have [[TheOmnipotent transfictional Omnipotence]], and likely [[TheOmniscient transfictional Omniscience]] and [[TheOmnipresent transfictional Omnipresence]]. Such characters are capable of exerting their will on multiple [[TheVerse Verses]] or [[SeriesFranchise Series Franchises]], up to ''all of fiction'' and even RealLife itself. These entities often even [[BeyondTheImpossible transcend being fictional characters]], thus becoming true [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ein_Sof Ein Sofs]], beings that are boundlessly above absolutely everything, including existence and nonexistence, possibility, causality, dualism and non-dualism, the concepts of life and death, and their analogues at any level. || [[http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Omni-Creator The Omni-Creator]] ||

|| \'\'\'\'\'Weight Class\'\'\'\'\' || \'\'\'Description\'\'\' || \'\'\'Example Traits and Abilities\'\'\' ||
|||||| \'\'\'Muggle Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Fragile Weight: -1\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can\'t do things {{muggles}} take for granted, have next to no combat ability and may even die if left alone for too long. These characters may rely extensively on luck, outside help or constant vigilance (assuming they aren\'t [[TheMillstone a burden]] in the first place). Note that merely being TheLoad or [[TheChewToy dying often]] doesn\'t put you in this weight, nor does being [[DamselScrappy annoyingly dependent]]. This weight is for characters that are physically (or mentally) undeveloped/handicapped and \'\'cannot\'\' do what the average \'\'adult\'\' human can do. || MouseWorld, TagAlongKid, IllGirl, MadeOfPlasticine, NearlyNormalAnimal, CompanionCube ||
|| \'\'\'Muggle Weight: 0\'\'\' || These characters are not significantly stronger or weaker than normal humans, and tend to be {{Innocent Bystander}}s and (you guessed it) {{Muggle}}s. Though not necessarily humans, they should be close to normal people in ability. || ActionSurvivor, UnfazedEveryman, NonActionGuy ||
|| \'\'\'Iron Weight: 1\'\'\' || These characters are MadeOfIron {{Badass Normal}}s who can push the upper limits of what a human is capable of. They may have gotten TrainingFromHell, or are experts at [[ThisIndexKnowsKungFu martial arts]], GoodOldFisticuffs, GunKata, LeParkour, [[ImprobableWeaponUser Improbable Weapon Usage]] and the like, or is part of the RedShirtArmy. Basically, this is a character anyone could become, bar the setting. However, note that characters don\'t need to be humans to be put here. This weight is also for any natural wildlife that could take down an unarmed human single-handedly. || BadassNormal, ActionHero, RealLifeSuperPowers, BearsAreBadNews ||
|||||| \'\'\'Between Muggle Tier and Super Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Abnormal Weight: 2\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class have an ability, trait, or talent that is supernatural or superhuman, but are otherwise comparable to normal humans. However, their abilities are generally [[ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman very specific]] and [[CripplingOverspecialization limited]] and [[WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway may be useless in some situations]], rendering the characters just as helpless as normal un-powered humans. Usually, characters of this type lack the RequiredSecondaryPowers to optimize or protect themselves from their own powers. Perhaps their only powers are to cancel [[AntiMagic other]] [[PowerNullifier powers]]. Most of the time, their ability [[MugglesDoItBetter is something we can mimic or even surpass]] using common science or low-grade [[{{Cyborg}} cybernetics]]. Muggles and Irons that are [[BeastMan Beast Men]] or [[{{Cyborg}} Cyborgs]] may also end up here. || {{Transhuman}}, BeastMan, AntiMagic / PowerNullifier, SinglePowerSuperheroes ||
|||||| \'\'\'Super Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Super Weight: 3\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can no longer be considered normal. Their powers may be StockSuperpowers or FunctionalMagic that, even if they are limited, may be used in a variety of ways, and tend to have RequiredSecondaryPowers. Most of your run-of-the-mill {{Super Hero}}es, {{Shounen}} characters, and [[SquishyWizard Mages]] will likely start here, possibly being [[NextTierPowerUp pushed higher as]] [[LongRunner they continue their adventures.]] || MagicAndPowers, StockSuperpowers, FunctionalMagic ||
|| \'\'\'Hyper Weight: 4\'\'\' || These characters typically can [[PersonOfMassDestruction cause]], stop, or reverse regional scale disasters, or [[BeyondTheImpossible defy]] [[RealityWarper physics]] with their powers. A protagonist of this weight (or higher) risks becoming a GodModeSue, because their abilities tend to be [[StoryBreakerPower story-breaking]], making it difficult to give them a [[HowToStopTheDeusExMachina plausible challenge.]] That said, a protagonist at this weight can have engaging adventures, the author just has to be careful to scale the SlidingScaleOfVillainThreat accordingly. || PersonOfMassDestruction, PowerOfTheStorm ||
|| \'\'\'Meta Weight: 5\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class have the capabilities to affect entire continents or landmasses with their abilities, and can often shape and change the face of a planet. These characters often have comparable power to a ColonyDrop of a large asteroid, and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that can stimulate ToonPhysics. Most {{Diabolical Mastermind}}s and [[TheArchmage Archmages]] end up here. A FlyingBrick often begins his adventures at this weight class as well. || ColonyDrop, DiabolicalMastermind, FlyingBrick, TheArchmage||
|||||| \'\'\'Between Super Tier and Cosmic Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'World Weight: 6\'\'\' || These characters have abilities that can affect entire worlds (such as Earth or other planets comparable to Earth in size) either [[WorldHealingWave positively]] or [[WorldWreckingWave nega]][[EarthShatteringKaboom tiv]][[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt ely]], or may even be a [[MotherNature manifestation of]] [[CelestialBody a planet]], [[GaiasVengeance with all that implies]]. They could even be the BackgroundMagicField, if said field is sentient. {{Reality Warper}}s who are powerful enough to create, alter, or destroy such worlds also go here. Many [[TheEmperor Emperors]] and {{Evil Overlord}}s end up here, especially if they\'re trying to TakeOverTheWorld or are [[OmnicidalManiac Omnicidal Maniacs]], though you will find their opposite in TheMessiah. || TheEmperor, EvilOverlord, WorldWreckingWave, WorldHealingWave, EarthShatteringKaboom, GenesisEffect, PhysicalGod, BackgroundMagicField, CelestialBody, MotherNature, TheMessiah, MessianicArchetype, SatanicArchetype ||
|||||| \'\'\'Cosmic Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Star Weight: 7\'\'\' || These characters have the capacity to control entire stars and solar systems up to entire star clusters, either [[SolarCPR positively]] or [[StarKilling negatively]]. They may even be [[CelestialBody manifestations of such stellar objects]], with all that implies. {{Reality Warper}}s with the power to create, alter, or destroy stellar objects also go here. Most {{Galactic Conquerer}}s start here. {{Sufficiently Advanced Alien}}s start here as well once they become a [[JustForFun/AbusingTheKardashevScaleForFunAndProfit Type II Civilization]]. Characters at this weight class and beyond are often capable of [[FasterThanLightTravel traveling at]] [[CasualInterstellarTravel many times the speed of light.]] || StarKilling, SolarCPR, SufficientlyAdvancedAlien ||
|| \'\'\'Cosmic Weight: 8\'\'\' || Characters that are \'\'this\'\' powerful aren\'t so much characters as forces of nature, wielding power to directly influence entire galaxies (such as the Milky Way or other galaxies comparable to the Milky Way in size) to entire \'\'universes\'\'. As a kind of CosmicEntity, they may be a RealityWarper with the power to manipulate entire galaxies to universes, a RealityWarper with ResetButton abilities, a RealityWarper with the ability to manipulate metaphysics on a galactic to universal scale, such as [[WindsOfDestinyChange causality or probability]], a GalacticConqueror or DimensionLord, an AnthropomorphicPersonification on a galactic to universal scale, a [[CelestialBody manifestation of a galaxy to even a universe]], or a SentientCosmicForce. These characters often go about their business in the universe, [[AboveGoodAndEvil unaffected by]] [[AllPowerfulBystander traditional conflicts]], for better [[CosmicHorrorStory or worse]]. || CosmicEntity, SentientCosmicForce, CosmicKeystone ||
|| \'\'\'Super Cosmic Weight: 9\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can operate beyond a single universe and affect multiple universes within TheMultiverse, but not directly influence the totality of TheMultiverse. Such characters are likely to have some tier of [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence spacetime transcendence]] and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that allows them to manipulate and {{AnthropomorphicPersonification embody}} even [[MoreThanInfinite different degrees]] [[EvenMoreOmnipotent of infinity]]. The SpacetimeEater is in this weight class, along with MoreThanInfinite {{Cosmic Entities}}. || SpacetimeEater, MoreThanInfinite ||
|||||| \'\'\'Between Cosmic Tier and Supreme Being Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Hyper Cosmic Weight: 10\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can impact the totality of TheMultiverse, and are often far more powerful than most other {{Cosmic Entities}}. Such characters are often either the GuardianOfTheMultiverse or the MultiversalConqueror. {{Anthropomorphic Personification}}s on a [[TheMultiverse Multiversal scale]] or [[CelestialBody manifestations]] of TheMultiverse also go here. The AbstractEater is in this weight class as well. || GuardianOfTheMultiverse, MultiversalConqueror, AbstractEater ||
|||||| \'\'\'Supreme Being Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Meta Cosmic Weight: 11\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class are all but unopposed, due to being [[TheOmnipotent nigh-omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient nigh-omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent nigh-omnipresent]]. They wield capabilities to manipulate the totality of {{The Verse}}/{{Series Franchise}} (if said totality exists beyond TheMultiverse) with \'\'very\'\' few limitations, and can only be affected by characters within the same weight class or in the Author Weight. These characters are likely to have a [[MetaFiction metafictional component]] to their existence. As such, these entities often have a [[MetaFiction metafictional component]] to their powers and abilities, and can usually [[{{Retconjuration}} cause]] a CosmicRetcon or ContinuityReboot. || TheOmnipotent (of the third type), CosmicRetcon, ContinuityReboot, {{Retconjuration}} ||
|| \'\'\'Author Weight: 12\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class are absolutely [[TheOmnipotent Omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient Omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent Omnipresent]]. They are capable of [[ThePowerOfCreation exerting their will]] on all of the totality of {{The Verse}}/{{Series Franchise}} or [[DeusExMachina even]] [[TheoryOfNarrativeCausality the plot itself]] without exception. [[BecauseDestinySaysSo Destiny]]/[[YouCantFightFate Fate]] is their [[WindsOfDestinyChange play-thing]]. They [[CompleteImmortality cannot be killed or destroyed by any means]]. Any limits they have are self-imposed. While this weight is almost always reserved for {{God}}, the [[AuthorAvatar Author]], and the GameMaster, characters \'\'can\'\' be written for at this level. Just don\'t expect it to be a normal story. As a result, a character at this level is fairly rare. || AuthorAvatar, AuthorPowers, TheOmnipotent (of the first type and second type), {{God}}, MemeticBadass, GameMaster, TheAntiGod ||
|| \'\'\'Omni-Creator Weight: Ω\'\'\' || Characters in this weight have [[TheOmnipotent transfictional Omnipotence]], and likely [[TheOmniscient transfictional Omniscience]] and [[TheOmnipresent transfictional Omnipresence]]. Such characters are capable of exerting their will on multiple [[TheVerse Verses]] or [[SeriesFranchise Series Franchises]], up to \'\'all of fiction\'\' and even RealLife itself. These entities often even [[BeyondTheImpossible transcend being fictional characters]], thus becoming true [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ein_Sof Ein Sofs]], beings that are boundlessly above absolutely everything, including existence and nonexistence, possibility, causality, dualism and non-dualism, the concepts of life and death, and their analogues at any level. || [[http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Omni-Creator The Omni-Creator]] ||

Therefore, I am requesting an expansion of the overly simplistic Super Weight Scale. Here is my first attempt. Sorry if is unreadable, for I don't know how to add a table like the Super Weight Scale onto topics like this.

|| '''''Weight Class''''' || '''Description''' || '''Example Traits and Abilities''' ||
|||||| '''Muggle Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Fragile Weight: -1''' || Characters in this weight class can't do things {{muggles}} take for granted, have next to no combat ability and may even die if left alone for too long. These characters may rely extensively on luck, outside help or constant vigilance (assuming they aren't [[TheMillstone a burden]] in the first place). Note that merely being TheLoad or [[TheChewToy dying often]] doesn't put you in this weight, nor does being [[DamselScrappy annoyingly dependent]]. This weight is for characters that are physically (or mentally) undeveloped/handicapped and ''cannot'' do what the average ''adult'' human can do. || MouseWorld, TagAlongKid, IllGirl, MadeOfPlasticine, NearlyNormalAnimal, CompanionCube ||
|| '''Muggle Weight: 0''' || These characters are not significantly stronger or weaker than normal humans, and tend to be {{Innocent Bystander}}s and (you guessed it) {{Muggle}}s. Though not necessarily humans, they should be close to normal people in ability. || ActionSurvivor, UnfazedEveryman, NonActionGuy ||
|| '''Iron Weight: 1''' || These characters are MadeOfIron {{Badass Normal}}s who can push the upper limits of what a human is capable of. They may have gotten TrainingFromHell, or are experts at [[ThisIndexKnowsKungFu martial arts]], GoodOldFisticuffs, GunKata, LeParkour, [[ImprobableWeaponUser Improbable Weapon Usage]] and the like, or is part of the RedShirtArmy. Basically, this is a character anyone could become, bar the setting. However, note that characters don't need to be humans to be put here. This weight is also for any natural wildlife that could take down an unarmed human single-handedly. || BadassNormal, ActionHero, RealLifeSuperPowers, BearsAreBadNews ||
|||||| '''Between Muggle Tier and Super Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Abnormal Weight: 2''' || Characters in this weight class have an ability, trait, or talent that is supernatural or superhuman, but are otherwise comparable to normal humans. However, their abilities are generally [[ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman very specific]] and [[CripplingOverspecialization limited]] and [[WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway may be useless in some situations]], rendering the characters just as helpless as normal un-powered humans. Usually, characters of this type lack the RequiredSecondaryPowers to optimize or protect themselves from their own powers. Perhaps their only powers are to cancel [[AntiMagic other]] [[PowerNullifier powers]]. Most of the time, their ability [[MugglesDoItBetter is something we can mimic or even surpass]] using common science or low-grade [[{{Cyborg}} cybernetics]]. Muggles and Irons that are [[BeastMan Beast Men]] or [[{{Cyborg}} Cyborgs]] may also end up here. || {{Transhuman}}, BeastMan, AntiMagic / PowerNullifier, SinglePowerSuperheroes ||
|||||| '''Super Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Super Weight: 3''' || Characters in this weight class can no longer be considered normal. Their powers may be StockSuperpowers or FunctionalMagic that, even if they are limited, may be used in a variety of ways, and tend to have RequiredSecondaryPowers. Most of your run-of-the-mill {{Super Hero}}es, {{Shounen}} characters, and [[SquishyWizard Mages]] will likely start here, possibly being [[NextTierPowerUp pushed higher as]] [[LongRunner they continue their adventures.]] || MagicAndPowers, StockSuperpowers, FunctionalMagic ||
|| '''Hyper Weight: 4''' || These characters typically can [[PersonOfMassDestruction cause]], stop, or reverse regional scale disasters, or [[BeyondTheImpossible defy]] [[RealityWarper physics]] with their powers. A protagonist of this weight (or higher) risks becoming a GodModeSue, because their abilities tend to be [[StoryBreakerPower story-breaking]], making it difficult to give them a [[HowToStopTheDeusExMachina plausible challenge.]] That said, a protagonist at this weight can have engaging adventures, the author just has to be careful to scale the SlidingScaleOfVillainThreat accordingly. || PersonOfMassDestruction ||
|| '''Meta Weight: 5''' || Characters in this weight class have the capabilities to affect entire continents or landmasses with their abilities, and can often shape and change the face of a planet. These characters often have comparable power to a ColonyDrop of a large asteroid, and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that can stimulate ToonPhysics. Most {{Diabolical Mastermind}}s and [[TheArchmage Archmages]] end up here. A FlyingBrick often begins his adventures at this weight class as well. || ColonyDrop, DiabolicalMastermind, FlyingBrick, TheArchmage||
|||||| '''Between Super Tier and Cosmic Tier''' ||||||
|| '''World Weight: 6''' || These characters have abilities that can affect entire worlds (sizes ranging from small terrestrial planets to large gas giants) either [[WorldHealingWave positively]] or [[WorldWreckingWave nega]][[EarthShatteringKaboom tiv]][[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt ely]], or may even be a [[MotherNature manifestation of]] [[CelestialBody a planet]], [[GaiasVengeance with all that implies]]. They could even be the BackgroundMagicField, if said field is sentient. {{Reality Warper}}s who are powerful enough to create, alter, or destroy such worlds also go here. Many [[TheEmperor Emperors]] and {{Evil Overlord}}s end up here, especially if they're trying to TakeOverTheWorld or are [[OmnicidalManiac Omnicidal Maniacs]], though you will find their opposite in TheMessiah. || TheEmperor, EvilOverlord, WorldWreckingWave, WorldHealingWave, EarthShatteringKaboom, GenesisEffect, PhysicalGod, BackgroundMagicField, CelestialBody, MotherNature, TheMessiah, MessianicArchetype, SatanicArchetype ||
|||||| '''Cosmic Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Star Weight: 7''' || These characters have the capacity to control entire stars and solar systems up to entire star clusters. They may even be [[CelestialBody manifestations of such stellar objects]], with all that implies. {{Reality Warper}}s with the power to create, alter, or destroy stellar objects also go here. Most {{Galactic Conquerer}}s start here. {{Sufficiently Advanced Alien}}s start here as well once they become a [[JustForFun/AbusingTheKardashevScaleForFunAndProfit Type II Civilization]]. Characters at this weight class and beyond are often capable of [[FasterThanLightTravel traveling at]] [[CasualInterstellarTravel many times the speed of light.]] || StarKilling, SolarCPR, SufficientlyAdvancedAlien ||
|| '''Cosmic Weight: 8''' || Characters that are ''this'' powerful aren't so much characters as forces of nature, wielding power to directly influence entire galaxies (starting with the size of a dwarf galaxy) to entire ''universes''. As a kind of CosmicEntity, they may be a RealityWarper with the power to manipulate entire galaxies or universes, a RealityWarper with ResetButton abilities, a RealityWarper with the ability to manipulate metaphysics such as [[WindsOfDestinyChange causality or probability]], a GalacticConqueror or DimensionLord, an AnthropomorphicPersonification on a galactic to universal scale, a [[CelestialBody manifestation of a galaxy to even a universe]], or a SentientCosmicForce. These characters often go about their business in the universe, [[AboveGoodAndEvil unaffected by]] [[AllPowerfulBystander traditional conflicts]], for better [[CosmicHorrorStory or worse]]. || CosmicEntity, SentientCosmicForce, CosmicKeystone ||
|| '''Super Cosmic Weight: 9''' || Characters in this weight class can operate beyond a single universe and affect multiple universes within TheMultiverse, but not directly influence the totality of TheMultiverse. Such characters are likely to have some tier of [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence spacetime transcendence]] and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that allows them to manipulate even [[MoreThanInfinite different degrees]] [[EvenMoreOmnipotent of infinity]]. The SpacetimeEater is in this weight class. || SpacetimeEater, MoreThanInfinite ||
|||||| '''Between Cosmic Tier and Supreme Being Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Hyper Cosmic Weight: 10''' || Characters in this weight class can impact the totality of TheMultiverse, and are often far more powerful than most other {{Cosmic Entities}}. Such characters are often either the GuardianOfTheMultiverse or the MultiversalConqueror. [[AnthropomorphicPersonification Embodiments of concepts]] on a [[TheMultiverse Multiversal scale]] or [[CelestialBody manifestations]] of TheMultiverse also go here. The AbstractEater is in this weight class as well. At this weight class and beyond, a character often starts to exhibit [[TheOmniscient nigh-omniscience]] on a [[TheMultiverse Multiversal scale]]. || GuardianOfTheMultiverse, MultiversalConqueror, AbstractEater ||
|||||| '''Supreme Being Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Meta Cosmic Weight: 11''' || Characters in this weight class are all but unopposed, due to being [[TheOmnipotent nigh-omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient nigh-omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent nigh-omnipresent]]. They wield capabilities to manipulate the totality of {{The Verse}}/{{Series Franchise}}, including all alternate dimensions, planes of existence, parallel universes, possible universes, timelines, alternate continuities, realities, Multiverses, and sets beyond Multiverses within said totality, with ''very'' few limitations, and can only be affected by characters within the same weight class or in the Author Weight. These characters are likely to have a [[MetaFiction metafictional component]] to their existence. As such, these entities often have a [[MetaFiction metafictional component]] to their powers and abilities, and can usually [[{{Retconjuration}} cause]] a CosmicRetcon or ContinuityReboot. || TheOmnipotent (of the third type), CosmicRetcon, ContinuityReboot, {{Retconjuration}} ||
|| '''Author Weight: 12''' || Characters in this weight class are absolutely [[TheOmnipotent Omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient Omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent Omnipresent]].

Such characters are likely to have some tier of [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence spacetime transcendence]] and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that allows them to manipulate even [[MoreThanInfinite different degrees]] [[EvenMoreOmnipotent of infinity]]. The SpacetimeEater is in this weight class. || SpacetimeEater, MoreThanInfinite ||
|||||| '''Between Cosmic Tier and Supreme Being Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Hyper Cosmic Weight: 10''' || Characters in this weight class can impact the totality of TheMultiverse, and are often far more powerful than most other {{Cosmic Entities}}. Such characters are often either the GuardianOfTheMultiverse or the MultiversalConqueror. [[AnthropomorphicPersonification Embodiments of concepts]] on a [[TheMultiverse Multiversal scale]] or [[CelestialBody manifestations]] of TheMultiverse also go here. The AbstractEater is in this weight class as well. At this weight class and beyond, a character often starts to exhibit [[TheOmniscient nigh-omniscience]] on a [[TheMultiverse Multiversal scale]]. || GuardianOfTheMultiverse, MultiversalConqueror, AbstractEater ||
|||||| '''Supreme Being Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Meta Cosmic Weight: 11''' || Characters in this weight class are all but unopposed, due to being [[TheOmnipotent nigh-omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient nigh-omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent nigh-omnipresent]]. They wield capabilities to manipulate the totality of {{The Verse}}/{{Series Franchise}}, including all alternate dimensions, planes of existence, parallel universes, possible universes, timelines, alternate continuities, realities, Multiverses, and sets beyond Multiverses within said totality, with ''very'' few limitations, and can only be affected by characters within the same weight class or in the Author Weight. These characters are likely to have a [[MetaFiction metafictional component]] to their existence. As such, these entities often have a [[MetaFiction metafictional component]] to their powers and abilities, and can usually [[{{Retconjuration}} cause]] a CosmicRetcon or ContinuityReboot. || TheOmnipotent (of the third type), CosmicRetcon, ContinuityReboot, {{Retconjuration}} ||
|| '''Author Weight: 12''' || Characters in this weight class are absolutely [[TheOmnipotent Omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient Omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent Omnipresent]]. They are capable of [[ThePowerOfCreation exerting their will]] on all of the totality of {{The Verse}}/{{Series Franchise}} or [[DeusExMachina even]] [[TheoryOfNarrativeCausality the plot itself]] without exception. [[BecauseDestinySaysSo Destiny]]/[[YouCantFightFate Fate]] is their [[WindsOfDestinyChange play-thing]]. They [[CompleteImmortality cannot be killed or destroyed by any means]]. Any limits they have are self-imposed. While this weight is almost always reserved for {{God}}, the Author, and the GameMaster, characters ''can'' be written for at this level. Just don't expect it to be a normal story. As a result, a character at this level is fairly rare. || AuthorAvatar, AuthorPowers, TheOmnipotent (of the first type and second type), {{God}}, MemeticBadass, GameMaster, TheAntiGod ||
|| '''Omni-Creator Weight: Ω''' || Characters in this weight have [[TheOmnipotent transfictional Omnipotence]], and likely [[TheOmniscient transfictional Omniscience]] and [[TheOmnipresent transfictional Omnipresence]]. Such characters are capable of exerting their will on multiple [[TheVerse Verses]] or [[SeriesFranchise Series Franchises]], up to ''all of fiction'' and even RealLife itself. These entities often even [[BeyondTheImpossible transcend being fictional characters]], thus becoming true [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ein_Sof Ein Sofs]], beings that are boundlessly above absolutely everything, including existence and nonexistence, possibility, causality, dualism and non-dualism, the concepts of life and death, and their analogues at any level. || [[http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Omni-Creator The Omni-Creator]] ||

|||||| \'\'\'Muggle Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Fragile Weight: -1\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can\'t do things {{muggles}} take for granted, have next to no combat ability and may even die if left alone for too long. These characters may rely extensively on luck, outside help or constant vigilance (assuming they aren\'t [[TheMillstone a burden]] in the first place). Note that merely being TheLoad or [[TheChewToy dying often]] doesn\'t put you in this weight, nor does being [[DamselScrappy annoyingly dependent]]. This weight is for characters that are physically (or mentally) undeveloped/handicapped and \'\'cannot\'\' do what the average \'\'adult\'\' human can do. || MouseWorld, TagAlongKid, IllGirl, MadeOfPlasticine, NearlyNormalAnimal, CompanionCube ||
|| \'\'\'Muggle Weight: 0\'\'\' || These characters are not significantly stronger or weaker than normal humans, and tend to be {{Innocent Bystander}}s and (you guessed it) {{Muggle}}s. Though not necessarily humans, they should be close to normal people in ability. || ActionSurvivor, UnfazedEveryman, NonActionGuy ||
|| \'\'\'Iron Weight: 1\'\'\' || These characters are MadeOfIron {{Badass Normal}}s who can push the upper limits of what a human is capable of. They may have gotten TrainingFromHell, or are experts at [[ThisIndexKnowsKungFu martial arts]], GoodOldFisticuffs, GunKata, LeParkour, [[ImprobableWeaponUser Improbable Weapon Usage]] and the like, or is part of the RedShirtArmy. Basically, this is a character anyone could become, bar the setting. However, note that characters don\'t need to be humans to be put here. This weight is also for any natural wildlife that could take down an unarmed human single-handedly. || BadassNormal, ActionHero, RealLifeSuperPowers, BearsAreBadNews ||
|||||| \'\'\'Between Muggle Tier and Super Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Abnormal Weight: 2\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class have an ability, trait, or talent that is supernatural or superhuman, but are otherwise comparable to normal humans. However, their abilities are generally [[ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman very specific]] and [[CripplingOverspecialization limited]] and [[WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway may be useless in some situations]], rendering the characters just as helpless as normal un-powered humans. Usually, characters of this type lack the RequiredSecondaryPowers to optimize or protect themselves from their own powers. Perhaps their only powers are to cancel [[AntiMagic other]] [[PowerNullifier powers]]. Most of the time, their ability [[MugglesDoItBetter is something we can mimic or even surpass]] using common science or low-grade [[{{Cyborg}} cybernetics]]. Muggles and Irons that are [[BeastMan Beast Men]] or [[{{Cyborg}} Cyborgs]] may also end up here. || {{Transhuman}}, BeastMan, AntiMagic / PowerNullifier, SinglePowerSuperheroes ||
|||||| \'\'\'Super Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Super Weight: 3\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can no longer be considered normal. Their powers may be StockSuperpowers or FunctionalMagic that, even if they are limited, may be used in a variety of ways, and tend to have RequiredSecondaryPowers. Most of your run-of-the-mill {{Super Hero}}es, {{Shounen}} characters, and [[SquishyWizard Mages]] will likely start here, possibly being [[NextTierPowerUp pushed higher as]] [[LongRunner they continue their adventures.]] || MagicAndPowers, StockSuperpowers, FunctionalMagic ||
|| \'\'\'Hyper Weight: 4\'\'\' || These characters typically can [[PersonOfMassDestruction cause]], stop, or reverse regional scale disasters, or [[BeyondTheImpossible defy]] [[RealityWarper physics]] with their powers. A protagonist of this weight (or higher) risks becoming a GodModeSue, because their abilities tend to be [[StoryBreakerPower story-breaking]], making it difficult to give them a [[HowToStopTheDeusExMachina plausible challenge.]] That said, a protagonist at this weight can have engaging adventures, the author just has to be careful to scale the SlidingScaleOfVillainThreat accordingly. || PersonOfMassDestruction ||
|| \'\'\'Meta Weight: 5\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class have the capabilities to affect entire continents or landmasses with their abilities, and can often shape and change the face of a planet. These characters often have comparable power to a ColonyDrop of a large asteroid, and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that can stimulate ToonPhysics. Most {{Diabolical Mastermind}}s and [[TheArchmage Archmages]] end up here. A FlyingBrick often begins his adventures at this weight class as well. || ColonyDrop, DiabolicalMastermind, FlyingBrick, TheArchmage||
|||||| \'\'\'Between Super Tier and Cosmic Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'World Weight: 6\'\'\' || These characters have abilities that can affect entire worlds (sizes ranging from small terrestrial planets to large gas giants) either [[WorldHealingWave positively]] or [[WorldWreckingWave nega]][[EarthShatteringKaboom tiv]][[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt ely]], or may even be a [[MotherNature manifestation of]] [[CelestialBody a planet]], [[GaiasVengeance with all that implies]]. They could even be the BackgroundMagicField, if said field is sentient. {{Reality Warper}}s who are powerful enough to create, alter, or destroy such worlds also go here. Many [[TheEmperor Emperors]] and {{Evil Overlord}}s end up here, especially if they\'re trying to TakeOverTheWorld or are [[OmnicidalManiac Omnicidal Maniacs]], though you will find their opposite in TheMessiah. || TheEmperor, EvilOverlord, WorldWreckingWave, WorldHealingWave, EarthShatteringKaboom, GenesisEffect, PhysicalGod, BackgroundMagicField, CelestialBody, MotherNature, TheMessiah, MessianicArchetype, SatanicArchetype ||
|||||| \'\'\'Cosmic Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Star Weight: 7\'\'\' || These characters have the capacity to control entire stars and solar systems up to entire star clusters. They may even be [[CelestialBody manifestations of such stellar objects]], with all that implies. {{Reality Warper}}s with the power to create, alter, or destroy stellar objects also go here. Most {{Galactic Conquerer}}s start here. {{Sufficiently Advanced Alien}}s start here as well once they become a [[JustForFun/AbusingTheKardashevScaleForFunAndProfit Type II Civilization]]. Characters at this weight class and beyond are often capable of [[FasterThanLightTravel traveling at]] [[CasualInterstellarTravel many times the speed of light.]] || StarKilling, SolarCPR, SufficientlyAdvancedAlien ||
|| \'\'\'Cosmic Weight: 8\'\'\' || Characters that are \'\'this\'\' powerful aren\'t so much characters as forces of nature, wielding power to directly influence entire galaxies (starting with the size of a dwarf galaxy) to entire \'\'universes\'\'. As a kind of CosmicEntity, they may be a RealityWarper with the power to manipulate entire galaxies or universes, a RealityWarper with ResetButton abilities, a RealityWarper with the ability to manipulate metaphysics such as [[WindsOfDestinyChange causality or probability]], a GalacticConqueror or DimensionLord, an AnthropomorphicPersonification on a galactic to universal scale, a [[CelestialBody manifestation of a galaxy to even a universe]], or a SentientCosmicForce. These characters often go about their business in the universe, [[AboveGoodAndEvil unaffected by]] [[AllPowerfulBystander traditional conflicts]], for better [[CosmicHorrorStory or worse]]. || CosmicEntity, SentientCosmicForce, CosmicKeystone ||

Therefore, I am requesting an expansion of the overly simplistic Super Weight Scale. Here is my first attempt. Sorry if is unreadable, for I don't know how to add a table like the Super Weight Scale onto topics like this.

|| \'\'\'Star Weight: 7\'\'\' || These characters have the capacity to control entire stars and solar systems up to entire star clusters. They may even be [[CelestialBody manifestations of such stellar objects]], with all that implies. {{Reality Warper}}s with the power to create, alter, or destroy stellar objects also go here. Most {{Galactic Conquerer}}s start here. {{Sufficiently Advanced Alien}}s start here as well once they become a [[JustForFun/AbusingTheKardashevScaleForFunAndProfit Type II Civilization]]. Characters at this weight class and beyond are often capable of [[FasterThanLightTravel traveling at]] [[CasualInterstellarTravel many times the speed of light.]] || StarKilling, SolarCPR, SufficientlyAdvancedAlien ||
|| \'\'\'Cosmic Weight: 8\'\'\' || Characters that are \'\'this\'\' powerful aren\'t so much characters as forces of nature, wielding power to directly influence entire galaxies (starting with the size of a dwarf galaxy) to entire \'\'universes\'\'. As a kind of CosmicEntity, they may be a RealityWarper with the power to manipulate entire galaxies or universes, a RealityWarper with ResetButton abilities, a RealityWarper with the ability to manipulate metaphysics such as [[WindsOfDestinyChange causality or probability]], a GalacticConqueror or DimensionLord, an AnthropomorphicPersonification on a galactic to universal scale, a [[CelestialBody manifestation of a galaxy to even a universe]], or a SentientCosmicForce. These characters often go about their business in the universe, [[AboveGoodAndEvil unaffected by]] [[AllPowerfulBystander traditional conflicts]], for better [[CosmicHorrorStory or worse]]. || CosmicEntity, SentientCosmicForce, CosmicKeystone ||
|| \'\'\'Super Cosmic Weight: 9\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can operate beyond a single universe and affect multiple universes within TheMultiverse, but not directly influence the totaliy of TheMultiverse. Such characters are likely to have some tier of [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence spacetime transcendence]] and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that allows them to manipulate even [[MoreThanInfinite different degrees]] [[EvenMoreOmnipotent of infinity]]. The SpacetimeEater is in this weight class. || SpacetimeEater, MoreThanInfinite ||
|||||| \'\'\'Between Cosmic Tier and Supreme Being Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Hyper Cosmic Weight: 10\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can impact the totality of TheMultiverse, and are often far more powerful than most other {{Cosmic Entities}}. Such characters are often either the GuardianOfTheMultiverse or the MultiversalConqueror. [[AnthropomorphicPersonification Embodiments of concepts]] on a [[TheMultiverse Multiversal scale]] or [[CelestialBody manifestations]] of TheMultiverse also go here. The AbstractEater is in this weight class as well. At this weight class and beyond, a character often starts to exhibit [[TheOmniscient nigh-omniscience]] on a [[TheMultiverse Multiversal scale]]. || GuardianOfTheMultiverse, MultiversalConqueror, AbstractEater ||

|| \'\'\'Meta Cosmic Weight: 11\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class are all but unopposed, due to being [[TheOmnipotent nigh-omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient nigh-omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent nigh-omnipresent]]. They wield capabilities to manipulate the totality of {{The Verse}}/{{Series Franchise}}, including all alternate dimensions, planes of existence, parallel universes, possible universes, timelines, alternate continuities, realities, Multiverses, and sets beyond Multiverses within said totality, with \'\'very\'\' few limitations, and can only be affected by characters within the same weight class or in the Author Weight. These characters are likely to have a [[MetaFiction metafictional component]] to their existence. As such, these entities often have a [[MetaFiction metafictional component]] to their powers and abilities, and can usually [[{{Retconjuration}} cause]] a CosmicRetcon or ContinuityReboot. || TheOmnipotent (of the third type), CosmicRetcon, ContinuityReboot, {{Retconjuration}} ||
|| \'\'\'Author Weight: 12\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class are absolutely [[TheOmnipotent Omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient Omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent Omnipresent]]. They are capable of [[ThePowerOfCreation exerting their will]] on all of the totality of {{The Verse}}/{{Series Franchise}} or [[DeusExMachina even]] [[TheoryOfNarrativeCausality the plot itself]] without exception. [[BecauseDestinySaysSo Destiny]]/[[YouCantFightFate Fate]] is their [[WindsOfDestinyChange play-thing]]. They [[CompleteImmortality cannot be killed or destroyed by any means]].

Such characters are capable of exerting their will on multiple [[TheVerse Verses]] or [[SeriesFranchise Series Franchises]], up to \'\'all of fiction\'\' and even RealLife itself.

|| '''''Weight Class''''' || '''Description''' || '''Example Traits and Abilities''' ||
|||||| '''Muggle Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Fragile Weight: -1''' || Characters in this weight class can't do things {{muggles}} take for granted, have next to no combat ability and may even die if left alone for too long. These characters may rely extensively on luck, outside help or constant vigilance (assuming they aren't [[TheMillstone a burden]] in the first place). Note that merely being TheLoad or [[TheChewToy dying often]] doesn't put you in this weight, nor does being [[DamselScrappy annoyingly dependent]]. This weight is for characters that are physically (or mentally) undeveloped/handicapped and ''cannot'' do what the average ''adult'' human can do. || MouseWorld, TagAlongKid, IllGirl, MadeOfPlasticine, NearlyNormalAnimal, CompanionCube ||
|| '''Muggle Weight: 0''' || These characters are not significantly stronger or weaker than normal humans, and tend to be {{Innocent Bystander}}s and (you guessed it) {{Muggle}}s. Though not necessarily humans, they should be close to normal people in ability. || ActionSurvivor, UnfazedEveryman, NonActionGuy ||
|| '''Iron Weight: 1''' || These characters are MadeOfIron {{Badass Normal}}s who can push the upper limits of what a human is capable of. They may have gotten TrainingFromHell, or are experts at [[ThisIndexKnowsKungFu martial arts]], GoodOldFisticuffs, GunKata, LeParkour, [[ImprobableWeaponUser Improbable Weapon Usage]] and the like, or is part of the RedShirtArmy. Basically, this is a character anyone could become, bar the setting. However, note that characters don't need to be humans to be put here. This weight is also for any natural wildlife that could take down an unarmed human single-handedly. || BadassNormal, ActionHero, RealLifeSuperPowers, BearsAreBadNews ||
|||||| '''Between Muggle Tier and Super Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Abnormal Weight: 2''' || Characters in this weight class have an ability, trait, or talent that is supernatural or superhuman, but are otherwise comparable to normal humans. However, their abilities are generally [[ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman very specific]] and [[CripplingOverspecialization limited]] and [[WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway may be useless in some situations]], rendering the characters just as helpless as normal un-powered humans. Usually, characters of this type lack the RequiredSecondaryPowers to optimize or protect themselves from their own powers. Perhaps their only powers are to cancel [[AntiMagic other]] [[PowerNullifier powers]]. Most of the time, their ability [[MugglesDoItBetter is something we can mimic or even surpass]] using common science or low-grade [[{{Cyborg}} cybernetics]].

|| '''Super Weight: 3''' || Characters in this weight class can no longer be considered normal.

|| '''Hyper Weight: 4''' || These characters typically can [[PersonOfMassDestruction cause]], stop, or reverse regional scale disasters, [[BeyondTheImpossible defy]] [[RealityWarper physics]] with their powers. A protagonist of this weight (or higher) risks becoming a GodModeSue, because their abilities tend to be [[StoryBreakerPower story-breaking]], making it difficult to give them a [[HowToStopTheDeusExMachina plausible challenge.]] That said, a protagonist at this weight can have engaging adventures, the author just has to be careful to scale the SlidingScaleOfVillainThreat accordingly. || PersonOfMassDestruction ||
|| '''Meta Weight: 5''' || Characters in this weight class have the capabilities to affect entire continents or landmasses with their abilities, and can often shape and change the face of a planet. These characters often have comparable power to a ColonyDrop of a large asteroid, and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that can stimulate ToonPhysics. Most {{Diabolical Mastermind}}s and [[TheArchmage Archmages]] end up here. A FlyingBrick often begins his adventures at this weight class as well. || ColonyDrop, DiabolicalMastermind, FlyingBrick, TheArchmage||
|||||| '''Between Super Tier and Cosmic Tier''' ||||||

The SpacetimeEater and the AbstractEater are also in this weight class. || GuardianOfTheMultiverse, MultiversalConqueror, SpacetimeEater, AbstractEater ||
|||||| '''Between Cosmic Tier and Supreme Being Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Hyper Cosmic Weight: 10''' || Characters in this weight class can casually play around with the totality of TheMultiverse. These characters are likely to have a [[MetaFiction metafictional component]] to their existence or have [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence transcended to such a plane of existence]]. As such, these entities often have a [[MetaFiction metafictional component]] to their powers and abilities, and can usually [[{{Retconjuration}} cause]] a CosmicRetcon or ContinuityReboot. || CosmicRetcon, ContinuityReboot, {{Retconjuration}} ||

|| '''Meta Weight: 5''' || Characters in this weight class have the capabilities to affect entire continents or landmasses with their abilities, and can often shape and change the face of a planet. These characters often have comparable power to a ColonyDrop of a large asteroid, and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that can stimulate ToonPhysics.

|| '''Iron Weight: 1''' || These characters are MadeOfIron {{Badass Normal}}s who can push the upper limits of what a human is capable of. They may have gotten TrainingFromHell, or are experts at [[ThisIndexKnowsKungFu martial arts]], GoodOldFisticuffs, GunKata, LeParkour, [[ImprobableWeaponUser Improbable Weapon Usage]] and the like, or is part of the RedShirtArmy.

However, their abilities are generally [[ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman very specific]] and [[CripplingOverspecialization limited]] and [[WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway may be useless in some situations]], rendering the characters just as helpless as normal un-powered humans. Usually, characters of this type lack the RequiredSecondaryPowers to optimize or protect themselves from their own powers. Perhaps their only powers are to cancel [[AntiMagic other]] [[PowerNullifier powers]]. Most of the time, their ability [[MugglesDoItBetter is something we can mimic or even surpass]] using common science or low-grade [[{{Cyborg}} cybernetics]].

|| '''Super Weight: 3''' || Characters in this weight class can no longer be considered normal. Their powers may be StockSuperpowers or FunctionalMagic that, even if they are limited, may be used in a variety of ways, and tend to have RequiredSecondaryPowers. These characters can often stop, cause, or reverse, Most of your run-of-the-mill {{Super Hero}}es, {{Shounen}} characters, and [[SquishyWizard Mages]] will likely start here, possibly being [[NextTierPowerUp pushed higher as]] [[LongRunner they continue their adventures.]] || MagicAndPowers, StockSuperpowers, FunctionalMagic ||
|| '''Hyper Weight: 4''' || These characters typically can [[PersonOfMassDestruction cause]], stop, or reverse regional scale disasters, [[BeyondTheImpossible defy]] [[RealityWarper physics]] with their powers. A protagonist of this weight (or higher) risks becoming a GodModeSue, because their abilities tend to be [[StoryBreakerPower story-breaking]], making it difficult to give them a [[HowToStopTheDeusExMachina plausible challenge.]] That said, a protagonist at this weight can have engaging adventures, the author just has to be careful to scale the SlidingScaleOfVillainThreat accordingly. || PersonOfMassDestruction ||
|| '''Meta Weight: 5''' || Characters in this weight class have the capabilities to affect entire continents or landmasses with their abilities, and can often shape and change the face of a planet. These characters often have comparable power to a ColonyDrop of a large asteroid, and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that can stimulate ToonPhysics. Most {{Diabolical Mastermind}}s and [[TheArchmage Archmages]] end up here.

They could even be the BackgroundMagicField, if said field is sentient. {{Reality Warper}}s who are powerful enough to create, alter, or destroy such worlds also go here.

|| '''Cosmic Weight: 8''' || Characters that are ''this'' powerful aren't so much characters as forces of nature, wielding power to directly influence entire galaxies (starting with the size of a dwarf galaxy) to entire ''universes''. As a kind of CosmicEntity, they may be a RealityWarper with the power to manipulate entire galaxies or universes or ResetButton abilities, a GalacticConqueror or DimensionLord, an AnthropomorphicPersonification on a galactic to universal scale, a [[CelestialBody manifestation of a galaxy to even a universe]], or a SentientCosmicForce. These characters often go about their business in the universe, [[AboveGoodAndEvil unaffected by]] [[AllPowerfulBystander traditional conflicts]], for better [[CosmicHorrorStory or worse]]. || CosmicEntity, SentientCosmicForce, CosmicKeystone ||
|| '''Super Cosmic Weight: 9''' || Characters in this weight class can impact the totality of TheMultiverse. Such characters are often either GuardianOfTheMultiverse, the MultiversalConqueror, or the [[AnthropomorphicPersonification embodiment]] or [[CelestialBody manifestation]] of TheMultiverse, and are often far more powerful than most other {{Cosmic Entities}}. Such characters are likely to have some tier of [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence spacetime transcendence]] and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that allows them to outright manipulate metaphysics such as [[WindsOfDestinyChange causality or probability]]. The SpacetimeEater and the AbstractEater are also in this weight class. || GuardianOfTheMultiverse, MultiversalConqueror, SpacetimeEater, AbstractEater ||
|||||| '''Between Cosmic Tier and Supreme Being Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Hyper Cosmic Weight: 10''' || Characters in this weight class can casually play around with the totality of TheMultiverse. These characters are likely to have [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence transcended]] [[TheMultiverse the Multiverse altogether]].

|| '''Author Weight: 12''' || Characters in this weight class are absolutely [[TheOmnipotent Omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient Omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent Omnipresent]].

Therefore, I am requesting an expansion of the overly simplistic Super Weight Scale. Here is my first attempt. Sorry if is unreadable, for I don't know how to add a table like the Super Weight Scale onto topics like this.

|| '''''Weight Class''''' || '''Description''' || '''Example Traits and Abilities''' ||
|||||| '''Muggle Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Fragile Weight: -1''' || Characters in this weight class can't do things {{muggles}} take for granted, have next to no combat ability and may even die if left alone for too long. These characters may rely extensively on luck, outside help or constant vigilance (assuming they aren't [[TheMillstone a burden]] in the first place). Note that merely being TheLoad or [[TheChewToy dying often]] doesn't put you in this weight, nor does being [[DamselScrappy annoyingly dependent]]. This weight is for characters that are physically (or mentally) undeveloped/handicapped and ''cannot'' do what the average ''adult'' human can do. || MouseWorld, TagAlongKid, IllGirl, MadeOfPlasticine, NearlyNormalAnimal, CompanionCube ||
|| '''Muggle Weight: 0''' || These characters are not significantly stronger or weaker than normal humans, and tend to be {{Innocent Bystander}}s and (you guessed it) {{Muggle}}s. Though not necessarily humans, they should be close to normal people in ability. || ActionSurvivor, UnfazedEveryman, NonActionGuy ||
|| '''Iron Weight: 1''' || These characters are MadeOfIron {{Badass Normal}}s who can push the upper limits of what a human is capable of. They may have gotten TrainingFromHell, or are experts at [[ThisIndexKnowsKungFu martial arts]], GoodOldFisticuffs, GunKata, LeParkour, [[ImprobableWeaponUser Improbable Weapon Usage]] and the like, or is part of the RedShirtArmy. Basically, this is a character anyone could become, bar the setting. However, note that characters don't need to be humans to be put here. This weight is also for any natural wildlife that could take down an unarmed human single-handedly. || BadassNormal, ActionHero, RealLifeSuperPowers, BearsAreBadNews ||
|||||| '''Between Muggle Tier and Super Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Abnormal Weight: 2''' || Characters in this weight class have an ability, trait, or talent that is supernatural or superhuman, but are otherwise comparable to normal humans. However, their abilities are generally [[ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman very specific]] and [[CripplingOverspecialization limited]] and [[WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway may be useless in some situations]], rendering the characters just as helpless as normal un-powered humans. Usually, characters of this type lack the RequiredSecondaryPowers to optimize or protect themselves from their own powers. Perhaps their only powers are to cancel [[AntiMagic other]] [[PowerNullifier powers]]. Most of the time, their ability [[MugglesDoItBetter is something we can mimic or even surpass]] using common science or low-grade [[{{Cyborg}} cybernetics]]. Muggles and Irons that are [[BeastMan Beast Men]] or [[{{Cyborg}} Cyborgs]] may also end up here. || {{Transhuman}}, BeastMan, AntiMagic / PowerNullifier, SinglePowerSuperheroes ||
|||||| '''Super Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Super Weight: 3''' || Characters in this weight class can no longer be considered normal. Their powers may be StockSuperpowers or FunctionalMagic that, even if they are limited, may be used in a variety of ways, and tend to have RequiredSecondaryPowers. These characters can often stop, cause, or reverse, Most of your run-of-the-mill {{Super Hero}}es, {{Shounen}} characters, and [[SquishyWizard Mages]] will likely start here, possibly being [[NextTierPowerUp pushed higher as]] [[LongRunner they continue their adventures.]] || MagicAndPowers, StockSuperpowers, FunctionalMagic ||
|| '''Hyper Weight: 4''' || These characters typically can [[PersonOfMassDestruction cause]], stop, or reverse regional scale disasters, [[BeyondTheImpossible defy]] [[RealityWarper physics]] with their powers. A protagonist of this weight (or higher) risks becoming a GodModeSue, because their abilities tend to be [[StoryBreakerPower story-breaking]], making it difficult to give them a [[HowToStopTheDeusExMachina plausible challenge.]] That said, a protagonist at this weight can have engaging adventures, the author just has to be careful to scale the SlidingScaleOfVillainThreat accordingly. || PersonOfMassDestruction ||
|| '''Meta Weight: 5''' || Characters in this weight class have the capabilities to affect entire continents or landmasses with their abilities, and can often shape and change the face of a planet. These characters often have comparable power to a ColonyDrop of a large asteroid, and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that can stimulate ToonPhysics. Most {{Diabolical Mastermind}}s and [[TheArchmage Archmages]] end up here. A FlyingBrick often begins his adventures at this weight class as well. || ColonyDrop, DiabolicalMastermind, FlyingBrick, TheArchmage||
|||||| '''Between Super Tier and Cosmic Tier''' ||||||
|| '''World Weight: 6''' || These characters have abilities that can affect entire worlds (such as Earth or others comparable to it in size) either [[WorldHealingWave positively]] or [[WorldWreckingWave nega]][[EarthShatteringKaboom tiv]][[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt ely]], or may even be a [[MotherNature manifestation of]] [[CelestialBody a planet]], [[GaiasVengeance with all that implies]]. They could even be the BackgroundMagicField, if said field is sentient. {{Reality Warper}}s who are powerful enough to create, alter, or destroy such worlds also go here. Many [[TheEmperor Emperors]] and {{Evil Overlord}}s end up here, especially if they're trying to TakeOverTheWorld or are [[OmnicidalManiac Omnicidal Maniacs]], though you will find their opposite in TheMessiah. || TheEmperor, EvilOverlord, WorldWreckingWave, WorldHealingWave, EarthShatteringKaboom, GenesisEffect, PhysicalGod, BackgroundMagicField, CelestialBody, MotherNature, TheMessiah, MessianicArchetype, SatanicArchetype ||
|||||| '''Cosmic Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Star Weight: 7''' || These characters have the capacity to control entire stars and solar systems up to entire star clusters. They may even be [[CelestialBody manifestations of such stellar objects]], with all that implies. {{Reality Warper}}s with the power to create, alter, or destroy stellar objects also go here. Most {{Galactic Conquerer}}s start here. {{Sufficiently Advanced Alien}}s start here as well once they become a [[JustForFun/AbusingTheKardashevScaleForFunAndProfit Type II Civilization]]. Characters at this weight class and beyond are often capable of [[FasterThanLightTravel travelling at]] [[CasualInterstellarTravel many times the speed of light.]] || StarKilling, SolarCPR, SufficientlyAdvancedAlien ||
|| '''Cosmic Weight: 8''' || Characters that are ''this'' powerful aren't so much characters as forces of nature, wielding power to directly influence entire galaxies (starting with the size of a dwarf galaxy) to entire ''universes''. As a kind of CosmicEntity, they may be a RealityWarper with the power to manipulate entire galaxies or universes or ResetButton abilities, a GalacticConqueror or DimensionLord, an AnthropomorphicPersonification on a galactic to universal scale, a [[CelestialBody manifestation of a galaxy to even a universe]], or a SentientCosmicForce. These characters often go about their business in the universe, [[AboveGoodAndEvil unaffected by]] [[AllPowerfulBystander traditional conflicts]], for better [[CosmicHorrorStory or worse]]. || CosmicEntity, SentientCosmicForce, CosmicKeystone ||
|| '''Super Cosmic Weight: 9''' || Characters in this weight class can impact the totality of TheMultiverse. Such characters are often either GuardianOfTheMultiverse, the MultiversalConqueror, or the [[AnthropomorphicPersonification embodiment]] or [[CelestialBody manifestation]] of TheMultiverse, and are often far more powerful than most other {{Cosmic Entities}}. Such characters are likely to have some tier of [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence spacetime transcendence]] and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that allows them to outright manipulate metaphysics such as [[WindsOfDestinyChange causality or probability]]. The SpacetimeEater and the AbstractEater are also in this weight class. || GuardianOfTheMultiverse, MultiversalConqueror, SpacetimeEater, AbstractEater ||
|||||| '''Between Cosmic Tier and Supreme Being Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Hyper Cosmic Weight: 10''' || Characters in this weight class can casually play around with the totality of TheMultiverse, and can often affect sets and structures above TheMultiverse. These characters are likely to have [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence transcended]] [[TheMultiverse the Multiverse altogether]]. Such entities often have a [[MetaFiction metafictional component]] to their powers and abilities, and can usually [[{{Retconjuration}} cause]] a CosmicRetcon or ContinuityReboot. || CosmicRetcon, ContinuityReboot, {{Retconjuration}} ||
|||||| '''Supreme Being Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Meta Cosmic Weight: 11''' || Characters in this weight class are all but unopposed, due to being [[TheOmnipotent Nigh-Omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient Nigh-Omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent Nigh-Omnipresent]]. They wield capabilities to manipulate the totality of {{The Verse}}/{{Series Franchise}} with ''very'' few limitations, and can only be affected by characters within the same weight class or in the Author Weight. || TheOmnipotent (of the third type) ||
|| '''Author Weight: 12''' || Characters in this weight class are absolutely [[TheOmnipotent Omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient Omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent Omnipresent]]. They are capable of [[ThePowerOfCreation exerting their will]] on all of the totality of {{The Verse}}/{{Series Franchise}} or [[DeusExMachina even]] [[TheoryOfNarrativeCausality the plot itself]] without exception. [[BecauseDestinySaysSo Destiny]]/[[YouCantFightFate Fate]] is their [[WindsOfDestinyChange play-thing]]. They [[CompleteImmortality cannot be killed or destroyed by any means]]. Any limits they have are self-imposed. While this weight is almost always reserved for {{God}}, the Author, and the GameMaster, characters ''can'' be written for at this level. Just don't expect it to be a normal story. As a result, a character at this level is fairly rare. || AuthorAvatar, AuthorPowers, TheOmnipotent (of the first type and second type), {{God}}, MemeticBadass, GameMaster, TheAntiGod ||
|| '''Omni-Creator Weight: Ω''' || Characters in this weight have [[TheOmnipotent transfictional Omnipotence]], and likely [[TheOmniscient transfictional Omniscience]] and [[TheOmnipresent transfictional Omnipresence]]. Such characters are capable of exerting their will on multiple [[TheVerse Verses]] or [[SeriesFranchise Series Franchises]], up to ''all of fiction'' and even RealLife itself.

|||||| \'\'\'Muggle Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Fragile Weight: -1\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can\'t do things {{muggles}} take for granted, have next to no combat ability and may even die if left alone for too long. These characters may rely extensively on luck, outside help or constant vigilance (assuming they aren\'t [[TheMillstone a burden]] in the first place). Note that merely being TheLoad or [[TheChewToy dying often]] doesn\'t put you in this weight, nor does being [[DamselScrappy annoyingly dependent]]. This weight is for characters that are physically (or mentally) undeveloped/handicapped and \'\'cannot\'\' do what the average \'\'adult\'\' human can do. || MouseWorld, TagAlongKid, IllGirl, MadeOfPlasticine, NearlyNormalAnimal, CompanionCube ||
|| \'\'\'Muggle Weight: 0\'\'\' || These characters are not significantly stronger or weaker than normal humans, and tend to be {{Innocent Bystander}}s and (you guessed it) {{Muggle}}s. Though not necessarily humans, they should be close to normal people in ability. || ActionSurvivor, UnfazedEveryman, NonActionGuy ||
|| \'\'\'Iron Weight: 1\'\'\' || These characters are MadeOfIron {{Badass Normal}}s who can push the upper limits of what a human is capable of. They may have gotten TrainingFromHell, or are experts at [[ThisIndexKnowsKungFu martial arts]], GoodOldFisticuffs, GunKata, LeParkour, [[ImprobableWeaponUser Improbable Weapon Usage]] and the like, or is part of the RedShirtArmy. Basically, this is a character anyone could become, bar the setting. However, note that characters don\'t need to be humans to be put here. This weight is also for any natural wildlife that could take down an unarmed human single-handedly. || BadassNormal, ActionHero, RealLifeSuperPowers, BearsAreBadNews ||
|||||| \'\'\'Between Muggle Tier and Super Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Abnormal Weight: 2\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class have an ability, trait, or talent that is supernatural or superhuman, but are otherwise comparable to normal humans. However, their abilities are generally [[ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman very specific]] and [[CripplingOverspecialization limited]] and [[WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway may be useless in some situations]], rendering the characters just as helpless as normal un-powered humans. Usually, characters of this type lack the RequiredSecondaryPowers to optimize or protect themselves from their own powers. Perhaps their only powers are to cancel [[AntiMagic other]] [[PowerNullifier powers]]. Most of the time, their ability [[MugglesDoItBetter is something we can mimic or even surpass]] using common science or low-grade [[{{Cyborg}} cybernetics]]. Muggles and Irons that are [[BeastMan Beast Men]] or [[{{Cyborg}} Cyborgs]] may also end up here. || {{Transhuman}}, BeastMan, AntiMagic / PowerNullifier, SinglePowerSuperheroes ||
|||||| \'\'\'Super Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Super Weight: 3\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can no longer be considered normal. Their powers may be StockSuperpowers or FunctionalMagic that, even if they are limited, may be used in a variety of ways, and tend to have RequiredSecondaryPowers. These characters can often stop, cause, or reverse, Most of your run-of-the-mill {{Super Hero}}es, {{Shounen}} characters, and [[SquishyWizard Mages]] will likely start here, possibly being [[NextTierPowerUp pushed higher as]] [[LongRunner they continue their adventures.]] || MagicAndPowers, StockSuperpowers, FunctionalMagic ||
|| \'\'\'Hyper Weight: 4\'\'\' || These characters typically can [[PersonOfMassDestruction cause]], stop, or reverse regional scale disasters, [[BeyondTheImpossible defy]] [[RealityWarper physics]] with their powers. A protagonist of this weight (or higher) risks becoming a GodModeSue, because their abilities tend to be [[StoryBreakerPower story-breaking]], making it difficult to give them a [[HowToStopTheDeusExMachina plausible challenge.]] That said, a protagonist at this weight can have engaging adventures, the author just has to be careful to scale the SlidingScaleOfVillainThreat accordingly. || PersonOfMassDestruction ||
|| \'\'\'Meta Weight: 5\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class have the capabilities to affect entire continents or landmasses with their abilities, and can often shape and change the face of a planet. These characters often have comparable power to a ColonyDrop of a large asteroid, and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that can stimulate ToonPhysics. Most {{Diabolical Mastermind}}s and [[TheArchmage Archmages]] end up here. A FlyingBrick often begins his adventures at this weight class as well. || ColonyDrop, DiabolicalMastermind, FlyingBrick, TheArchmage||

They could even be the BackgroundMagicField, if said field is sentient. {{Reality Warper}}s who are powerful enough to create, alter, or destroy such worlds also go here. Many [[TheEmperor Emperors]] and {{Evil Overlord}}s end up here, especially if they\'re trying to TakeOverTheWorld or are [[OmnicidalManiac Omnicidal Maniacs]], though you will find their opposite in TheMessiah. || TheEmperor, EvilOverlord, WorldWreckingWave, WorldHealingWave, EarthShatteringKaboom, GenesisEffect, PhysicalGod, BackgroundMagicField, CelestialBody, MotherNature, TheMessiah, MessianicArchetype, SatanicArchetype ||
|||||| \'\'\'Cosmic Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Star Weight: 7\'\'\' || These characters have the capacity to control entire stars and solar systems up to entire star clusters. They may even be [[CelestialBody manifestations of such stellar objects]], with all that implies. {{Reality Warper}}s with the power to create, alter, or destroy stellar objects also go here. Most {{Galactic Conquerer}}s start here. {{Sufficiently Advanced Alien}}s start here as well once they become a [[JustForFun/AbusingTheKardashevScaleForFunAndProfit Type II Civilization]]. Characters at this weight class and beyond are often capable of [[FasterThanLightTravel travelling at]] [[CasualInterstellarTravel many times the speed of light.]] || StarKilling, SolarCPR, SufficientlyAdvancedAlien ||
|| \'\'\'Cosmic Weight: 8\'\'\' || Characters that are \'\'this\'\' powerful aren\'t so much characters as forces of nature, wielding power to directly influence entire galaxies (starting with the size of a dwarf galaxy) to entire \'\'universes\'\'. As a kind of CosmicEntity, they may be a RealityWarper with the power to manipulate entire galaxies or universes or ResetButton abilities, a GalacticConqueror or DimensionLord, an AnthropomorphicPersonification on a galactic to universal scale, a [[CelestialBody manifestation of a galaxy to even a universe]], or a SentientCosmicForce. These characters often go about their business in the universe, [[AboveGoodAndEvil unaffected by]] [[AllPowerfulBystander traditional conflicts]], for better [[CosmicHorrorStory or worse]]. || CosmicEntity, SentientCosmicForce, CosmicKeystone ||
|| \'\'\'Super Cosmic Weight: 9\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can impact the totality of TheMultiverse. Such characters are often either GuardianOfTheMultiverse, the MultiversalConqueror, or the [[AnthropomorphicPersonification embodiment]] or [[CelestialBody manifestation]] of TheMultiverse, and are often far more powerful than most other {{Cosmic Entities}}. Such characters are likely to have some tier of [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence spacetime transcendence]] and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that allows them to outright manipulate metaphysics such as [[WindsOfDestinyChange causality or probability]]. The SpacetimeEater and the AbstractEater are also in this weight class. || GuardianOfTheMultiverse, MultiversalConqueror, SpacetimeEater, AbstractEater ||
|||||| \'\'\'Between Cosmic Tier and Supreme Being Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Hyper Cosmic Weight: 10\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can casually play around with the totality of TheMultiverse, and can often affect sets and structures above TheMultiverse. These characters are likely to have [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence transcended]] [[TheMultiverse the Multiverse altogether]]. Such entities often have a [[MetaFiction metafictional component]] to their powers and abilities, and can usually [[{{Retconjuration}} cause]] a CosmicRetcon or ContinuityReboot. || CosmicRetcon, ContinuityReboot, {{Retconjuration}} ||

Therefore, I am requesting an expansion of the overly simplistic Super Weight Scale. Here is my first attempt. Sorry if is unreadable, for I don't know how to add a table like the Super Weight Scale onto topics like this.

|| '''''Weight Class''''' || '''Description''' || '''Example Traits and Abilities''' ||
|||||| '''Muggle Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Fragile Weight: -1''' || Characters in this weight class can't do things {{muggles}} take for granted, have next to no combat ability and may even die if left alone for too long. These characters may rely extensively on luck, outside help or constant vigilance (assuming they aren't [[TheMillstone a burden]] in the first place). Note that merely being TheLoad or [[TheChewToy dying often]] doesn't put you in this weight, nor does being [[DamselScrappy annoyingly dependent]]. This weight is for characters that are physically (or mentally) undeveloped/handicapped and ''cannot'' do what the average ''adult'' human can do. || MouseWorld, TagAlongKid, IllGirl, MadeOfPlasticine, NearlyNormalAnimal, CompanionCube ||
|| '''Muggle Weight: 0''' || These characters are not significantly stronger or weaker than normal humans, and tend to be {{Innocent Bystander}}s and (you guessed it) {{Muggle}}s. Though not necessarily humans, they should be close to normal people in ability. || ActionSurvivor, UnfazedEveryman, NonActionGuy ||
|| '''Iron Weight: 1''' || These characters are MadeOfIron {{Badass Normal}}s who can push the upper limits of what a human is capable of. They may have gotten TrainingFromHell, or are experts at [[ThisIndexKnowsKungFu martial arts]], GoodOldFisticuffs, GunKata, LeParkour, [[ImprobableWeaponUser Improbable Weapon Usage]] and the like, or is part of the RedShirtArmy. Basically, this is a character anyone could become, bar the setting. However, note that characters don't need to be humans to be put here. This weight is also for any natural wildlife that could take down an unarmed human single-handedly. || BadassNormal, ActionHero, RealLifeSuperPowers, BearsAreBadNews ||
|||||| '''Between Muggle Tier and Super Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Abnormal Weight: 2''' || Characters in this weight class have an ability, trait, or talent that is supernatural or superhuman, but are otherwise comparable to normal humans. However, their abilities are generally [[ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman very specific]] and [[CripplingOverspecialization limited]] and [[WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway may be useless in some situations]], rendering the characters just as helpless as normal un-powered humans. Usually, characters of this type lack the RequiredSecondaryPowers to optimize or protect themselves from their own powers. Perhaps their only powers are to cancel [[AntiMagic other]] [[PowerNullifier powers]]. Most of the time, their ability [[MugglesDoItBetter is something we can mimic or even surpass]] using common science or low-grade [[{{Cyborg}} cybernetics]]. Muggles and Irons that are [[BeastMan Beast Men]] or [[{{Cyborg}} Cyborgs]] may also end up here. || {{Transhuman}}, BeastMan, AntiMagic / PowerNullifier, SinglePowerSuperheroes ||
|||||| '''Super Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Super Weight: 3''' || Characters in this weight class can no longer be considered normal. Their powers may be StockSuperpowers or FunctionalMagic that, even if they are limited, may be used in a variety of ways, and tend to have RequiredSecondaryPowers. These characters can often stop, cause, or reverse, Most of your run-of-the-mill {{Super Hero}}es, {{Shounen}} characters, and [[SquishyWizard Mages]] will likely start here, possibly being [[NextTierPowerUp pushed higher as]] [[LongRunner they continue their adventures.]] || MagicAndPowers, StockSuperpowers, FunctionalMagic ||
|| '''Hyper Weight: 4''' || These characters typically can [[PersonOfMassDestruction cause]], stop, or reverse regional scale disasters, [[BeyondTheImpossible defy]] [[RealityWarper physics]] with their powers. A protagonist of this weight (or higher) risks becoming a GodModeSue, because their abilities tend to be [[StoryBreakerPower story-breaking]], making it difficult to give them a [[HowToStopTheDeusExMachina plausible challenge.]] That said, a protagonist at this weight can have engaging adventures, the author just has to be careful to scale the SlidingScaleOfVillainThreat accordingly. || PersonOfMassDestruction ||
|| '''Meta Weight: 5''' || Characters in this weight class have the capabilities to affect entire continents or landmasses with their abilities, and can often shape and change the face of a planet. These characters often have comparable power to a ColonyDrop of a large asteroid, and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that can stimulate ToonPhysics. Most {{Diabolical Mastermind}}s and [[TheArchmage Archmages]] end up here. A FlyingBrick often begins his adventures at this weight class as well. || ColonyDrop, DiabolicalMastermind, FlyingBrick, TheArchmage||
|||||| '''Between Super Tier and Cosmic Tier''' ||||||
|| '''World Weight: 6''' || These characters have abilities that can affect entire worlds (such as Earth or others comparable to it in size) either [[WorldHealingWave positively]] or [[WorldWreckingWave nega]][[EarthShatteringKaboom tiv]][[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt ely]], or may even be a [[MotherNature manifestation of]] [[CelestialBody a planet]], [[GaiasVengeance with all that implies]]. They could even be the BackgroundMagicField, if said field is sentient. {{Reality Warper}}s who are powerful enough to create, alter, or destroy such worlds also go here. Many [[TheEmperor Emperors]] and {{Evil Overlord}}s end up here, especially if they're trying to TakeOverTheWorld or are [[OmnicidalManiac Omnicidal Maniacs]], though you will find their opposite in TheMessiah. The FlyingBrick can end up at this weight class or even higher. || TheEmperor, EvilOverlord, WorldWreckingWave, WorldHealingWave, EarthShatteringKaboom, GenesisEffect, PhysicalGod, BackgroundMagicField, CelestialBody, MotherNature, TheMessiah, MessianicArchetype, SatanicArchetype ||
|||||| '''Cosmic Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Star Weight: 7''' || These characters have the capacity to control entire stars and solar systems up to entire star clusters. They may even be [[CelestialBody manifestations of such stellar objects]], with all that implies. {{Reality Warper}}s with the power to create, alter, or destroy stellar objects also go here. Most {{Galactic Conquerer}}s start here. {{Sufficiently Advanced Alien}}s start here as well once they become a [[JustForFun/AbusingTheKardashevScaleForFunAndProfit Type II Civilization]]. Characters at this weight class and beyond are often capable of [[FasterThanLightTravel travelling at]] [[CasualInterstellarTravel many times the speed of light.]] || StarKilling, SolarCPR, SufficientlyAdvancedAlien ||
|| '''Cosmic Weight: 8''' || Characters that are ''this'' powerful aren't so much characters as forces of nature, wielding power to directly influence entire galaxies (starting with the size of a dwarf galaxy) to entire ''universes''. As a kind of CosmicEntity, they may be a RealityWarper with the power to manipulate entire galaxies or universes or ResetButton abilities, a GalacticConqueror or DimensionLord, an AnthropomorphicPersonification on a galactic to universal scale, a [[CelestialBody manifestation of a galaxy to even a universe]], or a SentientCosmicForce. These characters often go about their business in the universe, [[AboveGoodAndEvil unaffected by]] [[AllPowerfulBystander traditional conflicts]], for better [[CosmicHorrorStory or worse]]. || CosmicEntity, SentientCosmicForce, CosmicKeystone ||
|| '''Super Cosmic Weight: 9''' || Characters in this weight class can impact the totality of TheMultiverse. Such characters are often either GuardianOfTheMultiverse, the MultiversalConqueror, or the [[AnthropomorphicPersonification embodiment]] or [[CelestialBody manifestation]] of TheMultiverse, and are often far more powerful than most other {{Cosmic Entities}}. Such characters are likely to have some tier of [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence spacetime transcendence]] and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that allows them to outright manipulate metaphysics such as [[WindsOfDestinyChange causality or probability]]. The SpacetimeEater and the AbstractEater are also in this weight class. || GuardianOfTheMultiverse, MultiversalConqueror, SpacetimeEater, AbstractEater ||
|||||| '''Between Cosmic Tier and Supreme Being Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Hyper Cosmic Weight: 10''' || Characters in this weight class can casually play around with the totality of TheMultiverse. These characters are likely to have [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence transcended]] [[TheMultiverse the Multiverse altogether]]. Such entities often have a [[MetaFiction metafictional component]] to their powers and abilities, and can usually [[{{Retconjuration}} cause]] a CosmicRetcon or ContinuityReboot. || CosmicRetcon, ContinuityReboot, {{Retconjuration}} ||
|||||| '''Supreme Being Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Meta Cosmic Weight: 11''' || Characters in this weight class are all but unopposed, due to being [[TheOmnipotent Nigh-Omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient Nigh-Omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent Nigh-Omnipresent]]. They wield capabilities to manipulate the totality of {{The Verse}}/{{Series Franchise}} with ''very'' few limitations, and can only be affected by characters within the same weight class or in the Author Weight. || TheOmnipotent (of the third type) ||
|| '''Author Weight: 12''' || Characters in this weight class are absolutely [[TheOmnipotent Omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient Omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent Omnipresent]]. They are capable of [[ThePowerOfCreation exerting their will]] on all of the totality of {{The Verse}}/{{Series Franchise}} or [[DeusExMachina even]] [[TheoryOfNarrativeCausality the plot itself]] without exception. [[BecauseDestinySaysSo Destiny]]/[[YouCantFightFate Fate]] is their [[WindsOfDestinyChange play-thing]]. They [[CompleteImmortality cannot be killed or destroyed by any means]].

|| \'\'\'Fragile Weight: -1\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can\'t do things {{muggles}} take for granted, have next to no combat ability and may even die if left alone for too long. These characters may rely extensively on luck, outside help or constant vigilance (assuming they aren\'t [[TheMillstone a burden]] in the first place). Note that merely being TheLoad or [[TheChewToy dying often]] doesn\'t put you in this weight, nor does being [[DamselScrappy annoyingly dependent]]. This weight is for characters that are physically (or mentally) undeveloped/handicapped and \'\'cannot\'\' do what the average \'\'adult\'\' human can do. || MouseWorld, TagAlongKid, IllGirl, MadeOfPlasticine, NearlyNormalAnimal, CompanionCube ||
|| \'\'\'Muggle Weight: 0\'\'\' || These characters are not significantly stronger or weaker than normal humans, and tend to be {{Innocent Bystander}}s and (you guessed it) {{Muggle}}s. Though not necessarily humans, they should be close to normal people in ability. || ActionSurvivor, UnfazedEveryman, NonActionGuy ||
|| \'\'\'Iron Weight: 1\'\'\' || These characters are MadeOfIron {{Badass Normal}}s who can push the upper limits of what a human is capable of. They may have gotten TrainingFromHell, or are experts at [[ThisIndexKnowsKungFu martial arts]], GoodOldFisticuffs, GunKata, LeParkour, [[ImprobableWeaponUser Improbable Weapon Usage]] and the like, or is part of the RedShirtArmy. Basically, this is a character anyone could become, bar the setting. However, note that characters don\'t need to be humans to be put here.

|||||| \'\'\'Between Muggle Tier and Super Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Abnormal Weight: 2\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class have an ability, trait, or talent that is supernatural or superhuman, but are otherwise comparable to normal humans. However, their abilities are generally [[ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman very specific]] and [[CripplingOverspecialization limited]] and [[WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway may be useless in some situations]], rendering the characters just as helpless as normal un-powered humans. Usually, characters of this type lack the RequiredSecondaryPowers to optimize or protect themselves from their own powers. Perhaps their only powers are to cancel [[AntiMagic other]] [[PowerNullifier powers]]. Most of the time, their ability [[MugglesDoItBetter is something we can mimic or even surpass]] using common science or low-grade [[{{Cyborg}} cybernetics]]. Muggles and Irons that are [[BeastMan Beast Men]] or [[{{Cyborg}} Cyborgs]] may also end up here. || {{Transhuman}}, BeastMan, AntiMagic / PowerNullifier, SinglePowerSuperheroes ||

|| \'\'\'Super Weight: 3\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can no longer be considered normal. Their powers may be StockSuperpowers or FunctionalMagic that, even if they are limited, may be used in a variety of ways, and tend to have RequiredSecondaryPowers. These characters can often stop, cause, or reverse, Most of your run-of-the-mill {{Super Hero}}es, {{Shounen}} characters, and [[SquishyWizard Mages]] will likely start here, possibly being [[NextTierPowerUp pushed higher as]] [[LongRunner they continue their adventures.]] || MagicAndPowers, StockSuperpowers, FunctionalMagic ||
|| \'\'\'Hyper Weight: 4\'\'\' || These characters typically can [[PersonOfMassDestruction cause]], stop, or reverse regional scale disasters, [[BeyondTheImpossible defy]] [[RealityWarper physics]] with their powers. A protagonist of this weight (or higher) risks becoming a GodModeSue, because their abilities tend to be [[StoryBreakerPower story-breaking]], making it difficult to give them a [[HowToStopTheDeusExMachina plausible challenge.]] That said, a protagonist at this weight can have engaging adventures, the author just has to be careful to scale the SlidingScaleOfVillainThreat accordingly. || PersonOfMassDestruction ||
|| \'\'\'Meta Weight: 5\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class have the capabilities to affect entire continents or landmasses with their abilities, and can often shape and change the face of a planet. These characters often have comparable power to a ColonyDrop of a large asteroid, and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that can stimulate ToonPhysics.

They could even be the BackgroundMagicField, if said field is sentient. {{Reality Warper}}s who are powerful enough to create, alter, or destroy such worlds also go here. Many [[TheEmperor Emperors]] and {{Evil Overlord}}s end up here, especially if they\'re trying to TakeOverTheWorld or are [[OmnicidalManiac Omnicidal Maniacs]], though you will find their opposite in TheMessiah.

Most {{Galactic Conquerer}}s start here. {{Sufficiently Advanced Alien}}s start here as well once they become a [[JustForFun/AbusingTheKardashevScaleForFunAndProfit Type II Civilization]]. Characters at this weight class and beyond are often capable of [[FasterThanLightTravel travelling at]] [[CasualInterstellarTravel many times the speed of light.]] || StarKilling, SolarCPR, SufficientlyAdvancedAlien ||
|| \'\'\'Cosmic Weight: 8\'\'\' || Characters that are \'\'this\'\' powerful aren\'t so much characters as forces of nature, wielding power to directly influence entire galaxies (starting with the size of a dwarf galaxy) to entire \'\'universes\'\'. As a kind of CosmicEntity, they may be a RealityWarper with the power to manipulate entire galaxies or universes or ResetButton abilities, a GalacticConqueror or DimensionLord, an AnthropomorphicPersonification on a galactic to universal scale, a [[CelestialBody manifestation of a galaxy to even a universe]], or a SentientCosmicForce. These characters often go about their business in the universe, [[AboveGoodAndEvil unaffected by]] [[AllPowerfulBystander traditional conflicts]], for better [[CosmicHorrorStory or worse]]. || CosmicEntity, SentientCosmicForce, CosmicKeystone ||
|| \'\'\'Super Cosmic Weight: 9\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can impact the totality of TheMultiverse. Such characters are often either GuardianOfTheMultiverse, the MultiversalConqueror, or the [[AnthropomorphicPersonification embodiment]] or [[CelestialBody manifestation]] of TheMultiverse, and are often far more powerful than most other {{Cosmic Entities}}. Such characters are likely to have some tier of [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence spacetime transcendence]] and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that allows them to outright manipulate metaphysics such as [[WindsOfDestinyChange causality or probability]].

Therefore, I am requesting an expansion of the overly simplistic Super Weight Scale. Here is my first attempt. Sorry if is unreadable, for I don't know how to add a table like the Super Weight Scale onto topics like this.

|| '''''Weight Class''''' || '''Description''' || '''Example Traits and Abilities''' ||
|||||| '''Muggle Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Fragile Weight: -1''' || Characters in this weight class can't do things {{muggles}} take for granted, have next to no combat ability and may even die if left alone for too long. These characters may rely extensively on luck, outside help or constant vigilance (assuming they aren't [[TheMillstone a burden]] in the first place). Note that merely being TheLoad or [[TheChewToy dying often]] doesn't put you in this weight, nor does being [[DamselScrappy annoyingly dependent]]. This weight is for characters that are physically (or mentally) undeveloped/handicapped and ''cannot'' do what the average ''adult'' human can do. || MouseWorld, TagAlongKid, IllGirl, MadeOfPlasticine, NearlyNormalAnimal, CompanionCube ||
|| '''Muggle Weight: 0''' || These characters are not significantly stronger or weaker than normal humans, and tend to be {{Innocent Bystander}}s and (you guessed it) {{Muggle}}s. Though not necessarily humans, they should be close to normal people in ability. || ActionSurvivor, UnfazedEveryman, NonActionGuy ||
|| '''Iron Weight: 1''' || These characters are MadeOfIron {{Badass Normal}}s who can push the upper limits of what a human is capable of. They may have gotten TrainingFromHell, or are experts at [[ThisIndexKnowsKungFu martial arts]], GoodOldFisticuffs, GunKata, LeParkour, [[ImprobableWeaponUser Improbable Weapon Usage]] and the like, or is part of the RedShirtArmy. Basically, this is a character anyone could become, bar the setting. However, note that characters don't need to be humans to be put here. This weight is also for any natural wildlife that could take down an unarmed human single-handedly. || BadassNormal, ActionHero, RealLifeSuperPowers, BearsAreBadNews ||
|||||| '''Between Muggle Tier and Super Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Abnormal Weight: 2''' || Characters in this weight class have an ability, trait, or talent that is supernatural or superhuman, but are otherwise comparable to normal humans. However, their abilities are generally [[ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman very specific]] and [[CripplingOverspecialization limited]] and [[WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway may be useless in some situations]], rendering the characters just as helpless as normal un-powered humans. Usually, characters of this type lack the RequiredSecondaryPowers to optimize or protect themselves from their own powers. Perhaps their only powers are to cancel [[AntiMagic other]] [[PowerNullifier powers]]. Most of the time, their ability [[MugglesDoItBetter is something we can mimic or even surpass]] using common science or low-grade [[{{Cyborg}} cybernetics]]. Muggles and Irons that are [[BeastMan Beast Men]] or [[{{Cyborg}} Cyborgs]] may also end up here. || {{Transhuman}}, BeastMan, AntiMagic / PowerNullifier, SinglePowerSuperheroes ||
|||||| '''Super Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Super Weight: 3''' || Characters in this weight class can no longer be considered normal. Their powers may be StockSuperpowers or FunctionalMagic that, even if they are limited, may be used in a variety of ways, and tend to have RequiredSecondaryPowers. These characters can often stop, cause, or reverse, Most of your run-of-the-mill {{Super Hero}}es, {{Shounen}} characters, and [[SquishyWizard Mages]] will likely start here, possibly being [[NextTierPowerUp pushed higher as]] [[LongRunner they continue their adventures.]] || MagicAndPowers, StockSuperpowers, FunctionalMagic ||
|| '''Hyper Weight: 4''' || These characters typically can [[PersonOfMassDestruction cause]], stop, or reverse regional scale disasters, [[BeyondTheImpossible defy]] [[RealityWarper physics]] with their powers. A protagonist of this weight (or higher) risks becoming a GodModeSue, because their abilities tend to be [[StoryBreakerPower story-breaking]], making it difficult to give them a [[HowToStopTheDeusExMachina plausible challenge.]] That said, a protagonist at this weight can have engaging adventures, the author just has to be careful to scale the SlidingScaleOfVillainThreat accordingly. || PersonOfMassDestruction ||
|| '''Meta Weight: 5''' || Characters in this weight class have the capabilities to affect entire continents or landmasses with their abilities, and can often shape and change the face of a planet. These characters often have comparable power to a ColonyDrop of a large asteroid, and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that can stimulate ToonPhysics. Most {{Diabolical Mastermind}}s and [[TheArchmage Archmages]] end up here. A FlyingBrick often begins his adventures at this weight class as well. || ColonyDrop, DiabolicalMastermind, FlyingBrick, TheArchmage||
|||||| '''Between Super Tier and Cosmic Tier''' ||||||
|| '''World Weight: 6''' || These characters have abilities that can affect entire worlds (such as Earth or others comparable to it in size) either [[WorldHealingWave positively]] or [[WorldWreckingWave nega]][[EarthShatteringKaboom tiv]][[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt ely]], or may even be a [[MotherNature manifestation of]] [[CelestialBody a planet]], [[GaiasVengeance with all that implies]]. They could even be the BackgroundMagicField, if said field is sentient. {{Reality Warper}}s who are powerful enough to create, alter, or destroy such worlds also go here. Many [[TheEmperor Emperors]] and {{Evil Overlord}}s end up here, especially if they're trying to TakeOverTheWorld or are [[OmnicidalManiac Omnicidal Maniacs]], though you will find their opposite in TheMessiah. The FlyingBrick can end up at this weight class or even higher. || TheEmperor, EvilOverlord, WorldWreckingWave, WorldHealingWave, EarthShatteringKaboom, GenesisEffect, PhysicalGod, BackgroundMagicField, CelestialBody, MotherNature, TheMessiah, MessianicArchetype, SatanicArchetype ||
|||||| '''Cosmic Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Star Weight: 7''' || These characters have the capacity to control entire stars and solar systems up to entire star clusters. They may even be [[CelestialBody manifestations of such stellar objects]], with all that implies. {{Reality Warper}}s with the power to create, alter, or destroy stellar objects also go here. Most {{Galactic Conquerer}}s start here. Characters at this weight class and beyond are often capable of [[FasterThanLightTravel travelling at]] [[CasualInterstellarTravel many times the speed of light.]] || StarKilling ||
|| '''Cosmic Weight: 8''' || Characters that are ''this'' powerful aren't so much characters as forces of nature, wielding power to directly influence entire galaxies (starting with the size of a dwarf galaxy) to entire ''universes''. As a kind of CosmicEntity, they may be a RealityWarper with the power to manipulate entire galaxies or universes or ResetButton abilities, a GalacticConqueror or DimensionLord, an AnthropomorphicPersonification on a galactic to universal scale, a [[CelestialBody manifestation of a galaxy to even a universe]], or a SentientCosmicForce. These characters often go about their business in the universe, [[AboveGoodAndEvil unaffected by]] [[AllPowerfulBystander traditional conflicts]], for better [[CosmicHorrorStory or worse]]. || CosmicEntity, SentientCosmicForce, CosmicKeystone ||
|| '''Super Cosmic Weight: 9''' || Characters in this weight class can impact the totality of TheMultiverse. Such characters are often either GuardianOfTheMultiverse, the MultiversalConqueror, or the [[AnthropomorphicPersonification embodiment]] or [[CelestialBody manifestation]] of TheMultiverse, and are often far more powerful than most other {{Cosmic Entities}}. Such characters are likely to have some tier of [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence spacetime transcendence]] and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that allows them to outright manipulate metaphysics such as [[WindsOfDestinyChange causality or probability]]. The SpacetimeEater and the AbstractEater are also in this weight class. || GuardianOfTheMultiverse, MultiversalConqueror, SpacetimeEater, AbstractEater ||
|||||| '''Between Cosmic Tier and Supreme Being Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Hyper Cosmic Weight: 10''' || Characters in this weight class can casually play around with the totality of TheMultiverse. These characters are likely to have [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence transcended]] [[TheMultiverse the Multiverse altogether]]. Such entities often have a [[MetaFiction metafictional component]] to their powers and abilities, and can usually [[{{Retconjuration}} cause]] a CosmicRetcon or ContinuityReboot. || CosmicRetcon, ContinuityReboot, {{Retconjuration}} ||
|||||| '''Supreme Being Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Meta Cosmic Weight: 11''' || Characters in this weight class are all but unopposed, due to being [[TheOmnipotent Nigh-Omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient Nigh-Omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent Nigh-Omnipresent]]. They wield capabilities to manipulate the totality of {{The Verse}}/{{Series Franchise}} with very few limitations, and can only be affected by characters within the same weight class or in the Author Weight. || TheOmnipotent (of the third type) ||
|| '''Author Weight: 12''' || Characters in this weight class are absolutely [[TheOmnipotent Omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient Omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent Omnipresent]]. They are capable of [[ThePowerOfCreation exerting their will]] on all of the totality of {{The Verse}}/{{Series Franchise}} or [[DeusExMachina even]] [[TheoryOfNarrativeCausality the plot itself]] without exception. [[BecauseDestinySaysSo Destiny]]/[[YouCantFightFate Fate]] is their [[WindsOfDestinyChange play-thing]]. They [[CompleteImmortality cannot be killed or destroyed by any means]].

|| \'\'\'Fragile Weight: -1\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can\'t do things {{muggles}} take for granted, have next to no combat ability and may even die if left alone for too long. These characters may rely extensively on luck, outside help or constant vigilance (assuming they aren\'t [[TheMillstone a burden]] in the first place). Note that merely being TheLoad or [[TheChewToy dying often]] doesn\'t put you in this weight, nor does being [[DamselScrappy annoyingly dependent]]. This weight is for characters that are physically (or mentally) undeveloped/handicapped and \'\'cannot\'\' do what the average \'\'adult\'\' human can do. || MouseWorld, TagAlongKid, IllGirl, MadeOfPlasticine, NearlyNormalAnimal, CompanionCube ||
|| \'\'\'Muggle Weight: 0\'\'\' || These characters are not significantly stronger or weaker than normal humans, and tend to be {{Innocent Bystander}}s and (you guessed it) {{Muggle}}s. Though not necessarily humans, they should be close to normal people in ability. || ActionSurvivor, UnfazedEveryman, NonActionGuy ||
|| \'\'\'Iron Weight: 1\'\'\' || These characters are MadeOfIron {{Badass Normal}}s who can push the upper limits of what a human is capable of. They may have gotten TrainingFromHell, or are experts at [[ThisIndexKnowsKungFu martial arts]], GoodOldFisticuffs, GunKata, LeParkour, [[ImprobableWeaponUser Improbable Weapon Usage]] and the like, or is part of the RedShirtArmy. Basically, this is a character anyone could become, bar the setting. However, note that characters don\'t need to be humans to be put here.

|||||| \'\'\'Between Muggle Tier and Super Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Abnormal Weight: 2\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class have an ability, trait, or talent that is supernatural or superhuman, but are otherwise comparable to normal humans. However, their abilities are generally [[ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman very specific]] and [[CripplingOverspecialization limited]] and [[WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway may be useless in some situations]], rendering the characters just as helpless as normal un-powered humans. Usually, characters of this type lack the RequiredSecondaryPowers to optimize or protect themselves from their own powers. Perhaps their only powers are to cancel [[AntiMagic other]] [[PowerNullifier powers]]. Most of the time, their ability [[MugglesDoItBetter is something we can mimic or even surpass]] using common science or low-grade [[{{Cyborg}} cybernetics]].

|| \'\'\'Hyper Weight: 4\'\'\' || These characters typically can [[PersonOfMassDestruction cause]], stop, or reverse regional scale disasters, [[BeyondTheImpossible defy]] [[RealityWarper physics]] with their powers. A protagonist of this weight (or higher) risks becoming a GodModeSue, because their abilities tend to be [[StoryBreakerPower story-breaking]], making it difficult to give them a [[HowToStopTheDeusExMachina plausible challenge.]] That said, a protagonist at this weight can have engaging adventures, the author just has to be careful to scale the SlidingScaleOfVillainThreat accordingly. || PersonOfMassDestruction ||
|| \'\'\'Meta Weight: 5\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class have the capabilities to affect entire continents or landmasses with their abilities, and can often shape and change the face of a planet. These characters often have comparable power to a ColonyDrop of a large asteroid, and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that can stimulate ToonPhysics.

As a kind of CosmicEntity, they may be a RealityWarper with the power to manipulate entire galaxies or universes or ResetButton abilities, a GalacticConqueror or DimensionLord, an AnthropomorphicPersonification on a galactic to universal scale, a [[CelestialBody manifestation of a galaxy to even a universe]], or a SentientCosmicForce.

Therefore, I am requesting an expansion of the overly simplistic Super Weight Scale. Here is my first attempt. Sorry if is unreadable, for I don't know how to add a table like the Super Weight Scale onto topics like this.

|| '''''Weight Class''''' || '''Description''' || '''Example Traits and Abilities''' ||
|||||| '''Muggle Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Fragile Weight: -1''' || Characters in this weight class can't do things {{muggles}} take for granted, have next to no combat ability and may even die if left alone for too long. These characters may rely extensively on luck, outside help or constant vigilance (assuming they aren't [[TheMillstone a burden]] in the first place). Note that merely being TheLoad or [[TheChewToy dying often]] doesn't put you in this weight, nor does being [[DamselScrappy annoyingly dependent]]. This weight is for characters that are physically (or mentally) undeveloped/handicapped and ''cannot'' do what the average ''adult'' human can do. || MouseWorld, TagAlongKid, IllGirl, MadeOfPlasticine, NearlyNormalAnimal, CompanionCube ||
|| '''Muggle Weight: 0''' || These characters are not significantly stronger or weaker than normal humans, and tend to be {{Innocent Bystander}}s and (you guessed it) {{Muggle}}s. Though not necessarily humans, they should be close to normal people in ability. || ActionSurvivor, UnfazedEveryman, NonActionGuy ||
|| '''Iron Weight: 1''' || These characters are MadeOfIron {{Badass Normal}}s who can push the upper limits of what a human is capable of. They may have gotten TrainingFromHell, or are experts at [[ThisIndexKnowsKungFu martial arts]], GoodOldFisticuffs, GunKata, LeParkour, [[ImprobableWeaponUser Improbable Weapon Usage]] and the like, or is part of the RedShirtArmy. Basically, this is a character anyone could become, bar the setting. However, note that characters don't need to be humans to be put here. This weight is also for any natural wildlife that could take down an unarmed human single-handedly. || BadassNormal, ActionHero, RealLifeSuperPowers, BearsAreBadNews ||
|||||| '''Between Muggle Tier and Super Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Abnormal Weight: 2''' || Characters in this weight class have an ability, trait, or talent that is supernatural or superhuman, but are otherwise comparable to normal humans. However, their abilities are generally [[ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman very specific]] and [[CripplingOverspecialization limited]] and [[WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway may be useless in some situations]], rendering the characters just as helpless as normal un-powered humans. Usually, characters of this type lack the RequiredSecondaryPowers to optimize or protect themselves from their own powers. Perhaps their only powers are to cancel [[AntiMagic other]] [[PowerNullifier powers]]. Most of the time, their ability [[MugglesDoItBetter is something we can mimic or even surpass]] using common science or low-grade [[{{Cyborg}} cybernetics]]. Muggles and Irons that are [[BeastMan Beast Men]] or [[{{Cyborg}} Cyborgs]] may also end up here. || {{Transhuman}}, BeastMan, AntiMagic / PowerNullifier, SinglePowerSuperheroes ||
|||||| '''Super Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Super Weight: 3''' || Characters in this weight class can no longer be considered normal. Their powers may be StockSuperpowers or FunctionalMagic that, even if they are limited, may be used in a variety of ways, and tend to have RequiredSecondaryPowers. These characters can often stop, cause, or reverse, Most of your run-of-the-mill {{Super Hero}}es, {{Shounen}} characters, and [[SquishyWizard Mages]] will likely start here, possibly being [[NextTierPowerUp pushed higher as]] [[LongRunner they continue their adventures.]] || MagicAndPowers, StockSuperpowers, FunctionalMagic ||
|| '''Hyper Weight: 4''' || These characters typically can [[PersonOfMassDestruction cause]], stop, or reverse regional scale disasters, [[BeyondTheImpossible defy]] [[RealityWarper physics]] with their powers. A protagonist of this weight (or higher) risks becoming a GodModeSue, because their abilities tend to be [[StoryBreakerPower story-breaking]], making it difficult to give them a [[HowToStopTheDeusExMachina plausible challenge.]] That said, a protagonist at this weight can have engaging adventures, the author just has to be careful to scale the SlidingScaleOfVillainThreat accordingly. || PersonOfMassDestruction ||
|| '''Meta Weight: 5''' || Characters in this weight class have the capabilities to affect entire continents or landmasses with their abilities, and can often shape and change the face of a planet. These characters often have comparable power to a ColonyDrop of a large asteroid, and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that can stimulate ToonPhysics. Most {{Diabolical Mastermind}}s and [[TheArchmage Archmages]] end up here. A FlyingBrick often begins his adventures at this weight class as well. || ColonyDrop, DiabolicalMastermind, FlyingBrick, Archmage||
|||||| '''Between Super Tier and Cosmic Tier''' ||||||
|| '''World Weight: 6''' || These characters have abilities that can affect entire worlds (such as Earth or others comparable to it in size) either [[WorldHealingWave positively]] or [[WorldWreckingWave nega]][[EarthShatteringKaboom tiv]][[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt ely]], or may even be a [[MotherNature manifestation of]] [[CelestialBody a planet]], [[GaiasVengeance with all that implies]]. They could even be the BackgroundMagicField, if said field is sentient. {{Reality Warper}}s who are powerful enough to create, alter, or destroy such worlds also go here. Many [[The Emperor Emperors]] and {{Evil Overlord}}s end up here, especially if they're trying to TakeOverTheWorld or are [[OmnicidalManiac Omnicidal Maniacs]], though you will find their opposite in TheMessiah. The FlyingBrick can end up at this weight class or even higher. || TheEmperor, EvilOverlord, WorldWreckingWave, WorldHealingWave, EarthShatteringKaboom, GenesisEffect, PhysicalGod, BackgroundMagicField, CelestialBody, MotherNature, TheMessiah, MessianicArchetype, SatanicArchetype ||
|||||| '''Cosmic Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Star Weight: 7''' || These characters have the capacity to control entire stars and solar systems up to entire star clusters. They may even be [[CelestialBody manifestations of such stellar objects]], with all that implies. {{Reality Warper}}s with the power to create, alter, or destroy stellar objects also go here. Most {{Galactic Conquerer}}s start here. Characters at this weight class and beyond are often capable of [[FasterThanLightTravel travelling at]] [[CasualInterstellarTravel many times the speed of light.]] || StarKilling ||
|| '''Cosmic Weight: 8''' || Characters that are ''this'' powerful aren't so much characters as forces of nature, wielding power to directly influence entire galaxies (starting with the size of a dwarf galaxy) to entire ''universes''. As a kind of CosmicEntity, they may be a RealityWarper with the power to manipulate entire galaxies or universes or ResetButton abilities, a GalacticConqueror or DimensionLord, an AnthropomorphicPersonification on a galactic to universal scale, a [[CelestialBody manifestation of a galaxy to even a universe]], or a SentientCosmicForce. These characters often go about their business in the universe, [[AboveGoodAndEvil unaffected by]] [[AllPowerfulBystander traditional conflicts]], for better [[CosmicHorrorStory or worse]]. || CosmicEntity, SentientCosmicForce, CosmicKeystone ||
|| '''Super Cosmic Weight: 9''' || Characters in this weight class can impact the totality of TheMultiverse. Such characters are often either GuardianOfTheMultiverse, the MultiversalConqueror, or the [[AnthropomorphicPersonification embodiment]] or [[CelestialBody manifestation]] of TheMultiverse, and are often far more powerful than most other {{Cosmic Entities}}. Such characters are likely to have some tier of [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence spacetime transcendence]] and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that allows them to outright manipulate metaphysics such as [[WindsOfDestinyChange causality or probability]]. The SpacetimeEater and the AbstractEater are also in this weight class. || GuardianOfTheMultiverse, MultiversalConqueror, SpacetimeEater, AbstractEater ||
|||||| '''Between Cosmic Tier and Supreme Being Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Hyper Cosmic Weight: 10''' || Characters in this weight class can casually play around with the totality of TheMultiverse. These characters are likely to have [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence transcended]] [[TheMultiverse the Multiverse altogether]]. Such entities often have a [[MetaFiction metafictional component]] to their powers and abilities, and can usually [[{{Retconjuration}} cause]] a CosmicRetcon or ContinuityReboot. || CosmicRetcon, ContinuityReboot, {{Retconjuration}} ||
|||||| '''Supreme Being Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Meta Cosmic Weight: 11''' || Characters in this weight class are all but unopposed, due to being [[TheOmnipotent Nigh-Omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient Nigh-Omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent Nigh-Omnipresent]]. They wield capabilities to manipulate the totality of {{The Verse}}/{{Series Franchise}} or with ''very'' few limitations, and can only be affected by characters within the same weight class or in the Author Weight. || TheOmnipotent (of the third type) ||
|| '''Author Weight: 12''' || Characters in this weight class are absolutely [[TheOmnipotent Omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient Omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent Omnipresent]]. They are capable of [[ThePowerOfCreation exerting their will]] on all of the totality of {{The Verse}}/{{Series Franchise}} or [[DeusExMachina even]] [[TheoryOfNarrativeCausality the plot itself]] without exception. [[BecauseDestinySaysSo Destiny]]/[[YouCantFightFate Fate]] is their [[WindsOfDestinyChange play-thing]]. They [[CompleteImmortality cannot be killed or destroyed by any means]]. Any limits they have are self-imposed. While this weight is almost always reserved for {{God}}, the Author, and the GameMaster, characters ''can'' be written for at this level. Just don't expect it to be a normal story. As a result, a character at this level is fairly rare. || AuthorAvatar, AuthorPowers, TheOmnipotent (of the first type and second type), {{God}}, MemeticBadass, GameMaster, TheAntiGod ||
|| '''Omni-Creator Weight: 13''' || Characters in this weight have [[TheOmnipotent Transfictional Omnipotence]], and likely [[TheOmniscient Transfictional Omniscience]] and [[TheOmnipresent Transfictional Omnipresence]].

|| \'\'\'Fragile Weight: -1\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can\'t do things {{muggles}} take for granted, have next to no combat ability and may even die if left alone for too long. These characters may rely extensively on luck, outside help or constant vigilance (assuming they aren\'t [[TheMillstone a burden]] in the first place). Note that merely being TheLoad or [[TheChewToy dying often]] doesn\'t put you in this weight, nor does being [[DamselScrappy annoyingly dependent]]. This weight is for characters that are physically (or mentally) undeveloped/handicapped and \'\'cannot\'\' do what the average \'\'adult\'\' human can do. || MouseWorld, TagAlongKid, IllGirl, MadeOfPlasticine, NearlyNormalAnimal, CompanionCube ||
|| \'\'\'Muggle Weight: 0\'\'\' || These characters are not significantly stronger or weaker than normal humans, and tend to be {{Innocent Bystander}}s and (you guessed it) {{Muggle}}s. Though not necessarily humans, they should be close to normal people in ability. || ActionSurvivor, UnfazedEveryman, NonActionGuy ||
|| \'\'\'Iron Weight: 1\'\'\' || These characters are MadeOfIron {{Badass Normal}}s who can push the upper limits of what a human is capable of. They may have gotten TrainingFromHell, or are experts at [[ThisIndexKnowsKungFu martial arts]], GoodOldFisticuffs, GunKata, LeParkour, [[ImprobableWeaponUser Improbable Weapon Usage]] and the like, or is part of the RedShirtArmy. Basically, this is a character anyone could become, bar the setting. However, note that characters don\'t need to be humans to be put here. This weight is also for any natural wildlife that could take down an unarmed human single-handedly. || BadassNormal, ActionHero, RealLifeSuperPowers, BearsAreBadNews ||
|||||| \'\'\'Between Muggle Tier and Super Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Abnormal Weight: 2\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class have an ability, trait, or talent that is supernatural or superhuman, but are otherwise comparable to normal humans. However, their abilities are generally [[ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman very specific]] and [[CripplingOverspecialization limited]] and [[WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway may be useless in some situations]], rendering the characters just as helpless as normal un-powered humans. Usually, characters of this type lack the RequiredSecondaryPowers to optimize or protect themselves from their own powers. Perhaps their only powers are to cancel [[AntiMagic other]] [[PowerNullifier powers]]. Most of the time, their ability [[MugglesDoItBetter is something we can mimic or even surpass]] using common science or low-grade [[{{Cyborg}} cybernetics]]. Muggles and Irons that are [[BeastMan Beast Men]] or [[{{Cyborg}} Cyborgs]] may also end up here. || {{Transhuman}}, BeastMan, AntiMagic / PowerNullifier, SinglePowerSuperheroes ||
|||||| \'\'\'Super Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Super Weight: 3\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can no longer be considered normal. Their powers may be StockSuperpowers or FunctionalMagic that, even if they are limited, may be used in a variety of ways, and tend to have RequiredSecondaryPowers. These characters can often stop, cause, or reverse, Most of your run-of-the-mill {{Super Hero}}es, {{Shounen}} characters, and [[SquishyWizard Mages]] will likely start here, possibly being [[NextTierPowerUp pushed higher as]] [[LongRunner they continue their adventures.]] || MagicAndPowers, StockSuperpowers, FunctionalMagic ||
|| \'\'\'Hyper Weight: 4\'\'\' || These characters typically can [[PersonOfMassDestruction cause]], stop, or reverse regional scale disasters, [[BeyondTheImpossible defy]] [[RealityWarper physics]] with their powers. A protagonist of this weight (or higher) risks becoming a GodModeSue, because their abilities tend to be [[StoryBreakerPower story-breaking]], making it difficult to give them a [[HowToStopTheDeusExMachina plausible challenge.]] That said, a protagonist at this weight can have engaging adventures, the author just has to be careful to scale the SlidingScaleOfVillainThreat accordingly. || PersonOfMassDestruction ||
|| \'\'\'Meta Weight: 5\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class have the capabilities to affect entire continents or landmasses with their abilities, and can often shape and change the face of a planet. These characters often have comparable power to a ColonyDrop of a large asteroid, and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that can stimulate ToonPhysics. Most {{Diabolical Mastermind}}s and [[TheArchmage Archmages]] end up here. A FlyingBrick often begins his adventures at this weight class as well. || ColonyDrop, DiabolicalMastermind, FlyingBrick, Archmage||
|||||| \'\'\'Between Super Tier and Cosmic Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'World Weight: 6\'\'\' || These characters have abilities that can affect entire worlds (such as Earth or others comparable to it in size) either [[WorldHealingWave positively]] or [[WorldWreckingWave nega]][[EarthShatteringKaboom tiv]][[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt ely]], or may even be a [[MotherNature manifestation of]] [[CelestialBody a planet]], [[GaiasVengeance with all that implies]]. They could even be the BackgroundMagicField, if said field is sentient. {{Reality Warper}}s who are powerful enough to create, alter, or destroy such worlds also go here. Many [[The Emperor Emperors]] and {{Evil Overlord}}s end up here, especially if they\'re trying to TakeOverTheWorld or are [[OmnicidalManiac Omnicidal Maniacs]], though you will find their opposite in TheMessiah. The FlyingBrick can end up at this weight class or even higher. || TheEmperor, EvilOverlord, WorldWreckingWave, WorldHealingWave, EarthShatteringKaboom, GenesisEffect, PhysicalGod, BackgroundMagicField, CelestialBody, MotherNature, TheMessiah, MessianicArchetype, SatanicArchetype ||
|||||| \'\'\'Cosmic Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Star Weight: 7\'\'\' || These characters have the capacity to control entire stars and solar systems up to entire star clusters. They may even be [[CelestialBody manifestations of such stellar objects]], with all that implies. {{Reality Warper}}s with the power to create, alter, or destroy stellar objects also go here. Most {{Galactic Conquerer}}s start here. Characters at this weight class and beyond are often capable of [[FasterThanLightTravel travelling at]] [[CasualInterstellarTravel many times the speed of light.]] || StarKilling ||
|| \'\'\'Cosmic Weight: 8\'\'\' || Characters that are \'\'this\'\' powerful aren\'t so much characters as forces of nature, wielding power to directly influence entire galaxies (starting with the size of a dwarf galaxy) to entire \'\'universes\'\'. As a kind of CosmicEntity, they may be a RealityWarper with the power to manipulate entire galaxies or universes or ResetButton abilities, a GalacticConqueror or DimensionLord, an AnthropomorphicPersonification on a galactic to universal scale, a [[CelestialBody manifestation of a galaxy to even a universe]], or a SentientCosmicForce. These characters often go about their business in the universe, [[AboveGoodAndEvil unaffected by]] [[AllPowerfulBystander traditional conflicts]], for better [[CosmicHorrorStory or worse]]. || CosmicEntity, SentientCosmicForce, CosmicKeystone ||
|| \'\'\'Super Cosmic Weight: 9\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can impact the totality of TheMultiverse. Such characters are often either GuardianOfTheMultiverse, the MultiversalConqueror, or the [[AnthropomorphicPersonification embodiment]] or [[CelestialBody manifestation]] of TheMultiverse, and are often far more powerful than most other {{Cosmic Entities}}. Such characters are likely to have some tier of [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence spacetime transcendence]] and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that allows them to outright manipulate metaphysics such as [[WindsOfDestinyChange causality or probability]]. The SpacetimeEater and the AbstractEater are also in this weight class. || GuardianOfTheMultiverse, MultiversalConqueror, SpacetimeEater, AbstractEater ||
|||||| \'\'\'Between Cosmic Tier and Supreme Being Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Hyper Cosmic Weight: 10\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class can casually play around with the totality of TheMultiverse. These characters are likely to have [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence transcended]] [[TheMultiverse the Multiverse altogether]]. Such entities often have a [[MetaFiction metafictional component]] to their powers and abilities, and can usually [[{{Retconjuration}} cause]] a CosmicRetcon or ContinuityReboot. || CosmicRetcon, ContinuityReboot, {{Retconjuration}} ||
|||||| \'\'\'Supreme Being Tier\'\'\' ||||||
|| \'\'\'Meta Cosmic Weight: 11\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class are all but unopposed, due to being [[TheOmnipotent Nigh-Omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient Nigh-Omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent Nigh-Omnipresent]]. They wield capabilities to manipulate the totality of {{The Verse}}/{{Series Franchise}} or with \'\'very\'\' few limitations, and can only be affected by characters within the same weight class or in the Author Weight. || TheOmnipotent (of the third type) ||
|| \'\'\'Author Weight: 12\'\'\' || Characters in this weight class are absolutely [[TheOmnipotent Omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient Omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent Omnipresent]]. They are capable of [[ThePowerOfCreation exerting their will]] on all of the totality of {{The Verse}}/{{Series Franchise}} or [[DeusExMachina even]] [[TheoryOfNarrativeCausality the plot itself]] without exception. [[BecauseDestinySaysSo Destiny]]/[[YouCantFightFate Fate]] is their [[WindsOfDestinyChange play-thing]]. They [[CompleteImmortality cannot be killed or destroyed by any means]]. Any limits they have are self-imposed. While this weight is almost always reserved for {{God}}, the Author, and the GameMaster, characters \'\'can\'\' be written for at this level. Just don\'t expect it to be a normal story. As a result, a character at this level is fairly rare. || AuthorAvatar, AuthorPowers, TheOmnipotent (of the first type and second type), {{God}}, MemeticBadass, GameMaster, TheAntiGod ||
|| \'\'\'Omni-Creator Weight: 13\'\'\' || Characters in this weight have [[TheOmnipotent Transfictional Omnipotence]], and likely [[TheOmniscient Transfictional Omniscience]] and [[TheOmnipresent Transfictional Omnipresence]]. Such characters are capable of exerting their will on multiple [[TheVerse Verses]] or [[SeriesFranchise Series Franchises]], up to \'\'\'all of fiction\'\' and even RealLife itself. They transcend even the TheoryOfNarrativeCausality, and are thus not even bound by the plot. || [[http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Omni-Creator The Omni-Creator]] ||

|| '''Fragile Weight: -1''' || Characters in this weight class can't do things {{muggles}} take for granted, have next to no combat ability and may even die if left alone for too long. These characters may rely extensively on luck, outside help or constant vigilance (assuming they aren't [[TheMillstone a burden]] in the first place). Note that merely being TheLoad or [[TheChewToy dying often]] doesn't put you in this weight, nor does being [[DamselScrappy annoyingly dependent]]. This weight is for characters that are physically (or mentally) undeveloped/handicapped and ''cannot'' do what the average ''adult'' human can do. || MouseWorld, TagAlongKid, IllGirl, MadeOfPlasticine, NearlyNormalAnimal, CompanionCube ||
|| '''Muggle Weight: 0''' || These characters are not significantly stronger or weaker than normal humans, and tend to be {{Innocent Bystander}}s and (you guessed it) {{Muggle}}s. Though not necessarily humans, they should be close to normal people in ability. || ActionSurvivor, UnfazedEveryman, NonActionGuy ||
|| '''Iron Weight: 1''' || These characters are MadeOfIron {{Badass Normal}}s who can push the upper limits of what a human is capable of. They may have gotten TrainingFromHell, or are experts at [[ThisIndexKnowsKungFu martial arts]], GoodOldFisticuffs, GunKata, LeParkour, [[ImprobableWeaponUser Improbable Weapon Usage]] and the like, or is part of the RedShirtArmy. Basically, this is a character anyone could become, bar the setting. However, note that characters don't need to be humans to be put here. This weight is also for any natural wildlife that could take down an unarmed human single-handedly. || BadassNormal, ActionHero, RealLifeSuperPowers, BearsAreBadNews ||
|||||| '''Between Muggle Tier and Super Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Abnormal Weight: 2''' || Characters in this weight class have an ability, trait, or talent that is supernatural or superhuman, but are otherwise comparable to normal humans. However, their abilities are generally [[ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman very specific]] and [[CripplingOverspecialization limited]] and [[WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway may be useless in some situations]], rendering the characters just as helpless as normal un-powered humans. Usually, characters of this type lack the RequiredSecondaryPowers to optimize or protect themselves from their own powers. Perhaps their only powers are to cancel [[AntiMagic other]] [[PowerNullifier powers]]. Most of the time, their ability [[MugglesDoItBetter is something we can mimic or even surpass]] using common science or low-grade [[{{Cyborg}} cybernetics]]. Muggles and Irons that are [[BeastMan Beast Men]] or [[{{Cyborg}} Cyborgs]] may also end up here. || {{Transhuman}}, BeastMan, AntiMagic / PowerNullifier, SinglePowerSuperheroes ||
|||||| '''Super Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Super Weight: 3''' || Characters in this weight class can no longer be considered normal. Their powers may be StockSuperpowers or FunctionalMagic that, even if they are limited, may be used in a variety of ways, and tend to have RequiredSecondaryPowers. These characters can often stop, cause, or reverse, Most of your run-of-the-mill {{Super Hero}}es, {{Shounen}} characters, and [[SquishyWizard Mages]] will likely start here, possibly being [[NextTierPowerUp pushed higher as]] [[LongRunner they continue their adventures.]] || MagicAndPowers, StockSuperpowers, FunctionalMagic ||
|| '''Hyper Weight: 4''' || These characters typically can [[PersonOfMassDestruction cause]], stop, or reverse regional scale disasters, [[BeyondTheImpossible defy]] [[RealityWarper physics]] with their powers. A protagonist of this weight (or higher) risks becoming a GodModeSue, because their abilities tend to be [[StoryBreakerPower story-breaking]], making it difficult to give them a [[HowToStopTheDeusExMachina plausible challenge.]] That said, a protagonist at this weight can have engaging adventures, the author just has to be careful to scale the SlidingScaleOfVillainThreat accordingly. || PersonOfMassDestruction ||
|| '''Meta Weight: 5''' || Characters in this weight class have the capabilities to affect entire continents or landmasses with their abilities, and can often shape and change the face of a planet. These characters often have comparable power to a ColonyDrop of a large asteroid, and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that can stimulate ToonPhysics. Most {{Diabolical Mastermind}}s and [[TheArchmage Archmages]] end up here. A FlyingBrick often begins his adventures at this weight class as well. || ColonyDrop, DiabolicalMastermind, FlyingBrick, Archmage||
|||||| '''Between Super Tier and Cosmic Tier''' ||||||
|| '''World Weight: 6''' || These characters have abilities that can affect entire worlds (such as Earth or others comparable to it in size) either [[WorldHealingWave positively]] or [[WorldWreckingWave nega]][[EarthShatteringKaboom tiv]][[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt ely]], or may even be a [[MotherNature manifestation of]] [[CelestialBody a planet]], [[GaiasVengeance with all that implies]]. They could even be the BackgroundMagicField, if said field is sentient. {{Reality Warper}}s who are powerful enough to create, alter, or destroy such worlds also go here. Many [[The Emperor Emperors]] and {{Evil Overlord}}s end up here, especially if they're trying to TakeOverTheWorld or are [[OmnicidalManiac Omnicidal Maniacs]], though you will find their opposite in TheMessiah. The FlyingBrick can end up at this weight class or even higher. || TheEmperor, EvilOverlord, WorldWreckingWave, WorldHealingWave, EarthShatteringKaboom, GenesisEffect, PhysicalGod, BackgroundMagicField, CelestialBody, MotherNature, TheMessiah, MessianicArchetype, SatanicArchetype ||
|||||| '''Cosmic Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Star Weight: 7''' || These characters have the capacity to control entire stars and solar systems up to entire star clusters. They may even be [[CelestialBody manifestations of such stellar objects]], with all that implies. {{Reality Warper}}s with the power to create, alter, or destroy stellar objects also go here. Most {{Galactic Conquerer}}s start here. Characters at this weight class and beyond are often capable of [[FasterThanLightTravel travelling at]] [[CasualInterstellarTravel many times the speed of light.]] || StarKilling ||
|| '''Cosmic Weight: 8''' || Characters that are ''this'' powerful aren't so much characters as forces of nature, wielding power to directly influence entire galaxies (starting with the size of a dwarf galaxy) to entire ''universes''. As a kind of CosmicEntity, they may be a RealityWarper with the power to manipulate entire galaxies or universes or ResetButton abilities, a GalacticConqueror or DimensionLord, an AnthropomorphicPersonification on a galactic to universal scale, a [[CelestialBody manifestation of a galaxy to even a universe]], or a SentientCosmicForce. These characters often go about their business in the universe, [[AboveGoodAndEvil unaffected by]] [[AllPowerfulBystander traditional conflicts]], for better [[CosmicHorrorStory or worse]]. || CosmicEntity, SentientCosmicForce, CosmicKeystone ||
|| '''Super Cosmic Weight: 9''' || Characters in this weight class can impact the totality of TheMultiverse. Such characters are often either GuardianOfTheMultiverse, the MultiversalConqueror, or the [[AnthropomorphicPersonification embodiment]] or [[CelestialBody manifestation]] of TheMultiverse, and are often far more powerful than most other {{Cosmic Entities}}. Such characters are likely to have some tier of [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence spacetime transcendence]] and have [[RealityWarper Reality Warping]] that allows them to outright manipulate metaphysics such as [[WindsOfDestinyChange causality or probability]]. The SpacetimeEater and the AbstractEater are also in this weight class. || GuardianOfTheMultiverse, MultiversalConqueror, SpacetimeEater, AbstractEater ||
|||||| '''Between Cosmic Tier and Supreme Being Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Hyper Cosmic Weight: 10''' || Characters in this weight class can casually play around with the totality of TheMultiverse, and can often manipulate sets and structures beyond TheMultiverse. These characters are likely to have [[AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence transcended]] [[TheMultiverse the Multiverse altogether]]. Such entities often have a [[MetaFiction metafictional component]] to their powers and abilities, and can usually [[Main/Retconjuration cause]] a CosmicRetcon or ContinuityReboot. || CosmicRetcon, ContinuityReboot, Main/Retconjuration ||
|||||| '''Supreme Being Tier''' ||||||
|| '''Meta Cosmic Weight: 11''' || Characters in this weight class are all but unopposed, due to being [[TheOmnipotent Nigh-Omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient Nigh-Omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent Nigh-Omnipresent]]. They wield capabilities to manipulate the totality of {{The Verse}}/{{Series Franchise}} or with ''very'' few limitations, and can only be affected by characters within the same weight class or in the Author Weight. || TheOmnipotent (of the third type) ||
|| '''Author Weight: 12''' || Characters in this weight class are absolutely [[TheOmnipotent Omnipotent]] and likely [[TheOmniscient Omniscient]] and [[TheOmnipresent Omnipresent]]. They are capable of [[ThePowerOfCreation exerting their will]] on all of the totality of {{The Verse}}/{{Series Franchise}} or [[DeusExMachina even]] [[TheoryOfNarrativeCausality the plot itself]] without exception. [[BecauseDestinySaysSo Destiny]]/[[YouCantFightFate Fate]] is their [[WindsOfDestinyChange play-thing]]. They [[CompleteImmortality cannot be killed or destroyed by any means]]. Any limits they have are self-imposed. While this weight is almost always reserved for {{God}}, the Author, and the GameMaster, characters ''can'' be written for at this level. Just don't expect it to be a normal story. As a result, a character at this level is fairly rare. || AuthorAvatar, AuthorPowers, TheOmnipotent (of the first type and second type), {{God}}, MemeticBadass, GameMaster, TheAntiGod ||
|| '''Omni-Creator Weight: 13''' || Characters in this weight have [[TheOmnipotent ''Transfictional'' Omnipotence]], and likely [[TheOmniscient Transfictional Omniscience]] and [[TheOmnipresent Transfictional Omnipresence]]. Such characters are capable of exerting their will on multiple [[TheVerse Verses]] or [[SeriesFranchise Series Franchises]], up to '''all of fiction'' and even RealLife itself. They transcend even the TheoryOfNarrativeCausality, and are thus not even bound by the plot. || [[http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Omni-Creator The Omni-Creator]] ||

Therefore, I am requesting an expansion of the overly simplistic Super Weight Scale. Here is my first attempt. Sorry if is unreadable, for I don't know how to add a table like the Super Weight Scale onto topics like this.
