"At the end of the day, your actions don't matter, they never mattered till now. Most beings only follow one path, a "fated" path or whatever your universe calls it, string of red correct? That was a rhetorical question by the way, no need to answer. Regardless, up until now, your path is very stagnant, until a all powerful being interferes with your predestined destination, right now, that being is me.... yes, you have never heard of me, and you will never find a worshiper for me. Simply put, now back on track I take it, your life now truly has a sort of freedom after this, what you do is up to you, I'll just watch and clap for now."


A pre existential being encompassing everything and the impossible. Compared to all other pre existential beings, all he desires is to quell his boredom, and doesn't care much for others around him, unless if they give him entertainment, to which maybe he might grant them small special favors. The being of the impossible seeks entertainment, because of a blessing or curse, embedded within what gives it the very strength to ignore beings like Azathos or god without consequence.

He is not the father, sister or creator of the pre existential entities, and is the only pre existential entity who has not picked a specific side to aid during and after the "Let there be light" incidents, being a neutral party who simply let it play out. Most of his relationships with the pre existential in general is incredibly vague, with most not even knowing of his existence, save for a few. 

Because of this, it is incredibly difficult to find or meet the witness in of itself, as it mostly spends its time separated from reality, the heavens, or hell, in a place completely isolated by all save for him, which he simply labelled as "the depths", a place neither considered good or bad, where knowledge flows freely, weaving out a world filled with complete or incomplete oddities. The depths was a place not created by god, and the witness said it had existed since he opened his eyes, with the very first thing to ever perceive something. 

The witness never had what it considered a childhood, due to his powers, which will be explained later, as it has never spent a moment where he learnt something new, or when he had ever felt surprised before. It is the sole reason why it seeks a new experience, regardless of what it does to him. Even the experience of death would be an experience he would welcome should it arrive. 

personality: 

"You can...do whatever you wish to be honest, It really doesn't matter as long as its something I find entertaining. For all I care, exterminate a whole species, cause mass destruction and trauma among billions, kick a puppy, it really doesn't matter much for me."

the witness is an entity who could care less for good and evil, finding its very concept nothing more then a universal narrative device made to create conflict. Similarly it finds the concept morals as pointless, not caring whether a universe or multiverse is wiped out, if he finds it boring, or served its purpose. Those who do get the title of entertaining however, will be able to find access in the knowledge of this entity, be it what ever they ask for. 

It chooses to seal off those who annoy it, primarily by avoiding all contact with the being. However if the being becomes to much of an annoyance, the witness will ditch its neutral stance, and torture whatever has consistently interrupted the chess pieces to his entertainment. Each method of torture is unique between person, and is catered and modified specifically to the person. He doesn't do it for sadistic pleasures, more so to send a message. Most entities who can consistently affect his entertainment are usually entities of high power who affect many futures, which is why he keeps them alive.  

Arguably however, the only person he could consider to have a soft spot for are beings who are sealed, such as ayin, as it can somewhat relate to the situation of sheer boredom, being unable to do anything outside of what they have already tried or experienced gazillions of times already.
