Contrast the [[Person of Mass Destruction]] (who doesn't ''want'' to use their powers to destroy the world), [[Mike Nelson, Destroyer of Worlds]] (who causes damage of this scale largely by accident, through ignorance, or for comedic, non-serious reasons intended to elicit laughter), and [[Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds]] (whose tragic, crapsack lives made them see red and lay the blame on all their woes upon the world). Omnicidal Maniacs are ''not'' amusing and have [[Why You Should Destroy the Planet Earth|clearly-defined reasons for wanting to destroy everything nearby]], which they do with a great deal of malice. The Omnicidal Maniac differs from the [[Suicidal Cosmic Temper Tantrum]] and [[Put Them All Out of My Misery]] in that the Maniac has "destroy world" as motive and "I go down with it" as unfortunate side-effect (or isn't planning to go down with the world at all if they happen to have the power or means to survive the destruction they wrought), while the latter two has "I die/I am miserable" as motive and "world goes with me" as insurance.
The logical extreme of the less destructive [[Feeling Oppressed
The [[Nietzsche Wannabe]], the [[Psycho for Hire]] or the [[A God Am I]] mentality are very popular amongst this character archetype.

** ''[[Digimon Adventure 02]]:'' [[Big Bad]] ([[Disc One Final Boss|or so we think at the time]]) Arukenimon's main plan is to destroy the [[Cosmic Keystone|Cosmic Keystones]] that maintain the barriers between dimensions, which would cause all dimensions to collide, destroying the multiverse. Her intended [[The Dragon|Dragon]] refuses to help on the grounds that she's an unworthy mistress, but eventually decides, for his own reasons, to do the same, making him just as much of an Omnicidal Maniac.
** ''[[Digimon Tamers]]'' features a non-Digimon AI that was designed to prevent other programs from exceeding their boundaries ('cause [[AI Is a Crapshoot]]) by deleting them if they surpassed a certain stage of development. It decides all humans and Digimon meet criteria for deletion. Then it gets ''[[Eldritch Abomination|really]]'' [[The Heartless|nasty]].
** ''[[Digimon Frontier]]'s'' Lucemon is more of a digital [[Evilutionary Biologist]]. The data that makes up Digital World's matter (and population) is easily manipulated, and it ''all'' had to be absorbed and used to release him [[Sealed Evil in
** ''[[Digimon Savers]]'', aka ''Digimon Data Squad,'' has Yggdrasil/King Drasil, the computer that runs the Digital World. When the previous arc's [[Big Bad]]'s plan backfires and both worlds are going to collide, he decides that the human world must go. When the Digimon fight against him and his minions to protect it, guess what he ''then'' decides? He, too, plans on restarting the Digital World after destroying the old one.

* ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' has several, Queen Metaria the [[Big Bad]] of the Classic season, Wiseman/Death Phantom the [[Big Bad]] of the R season, the entire Death Busters organization of the S season and Sailor Galaxia of the Stars season. Sailor Galaxia, in particular, is notable for omniciding at least a half-dozen, and probably much more, habitable planets, before coming to Earth - by the [[Grand Finale]] she pretty much wipes out all life in the Milky Way galaxy in both the manga and the anime. Chaos, who directly controls her and is hinted (or outright stated in the manga) to be the [[Ultimate Evil]] behind the rest of them, is one too.

** Many ''[[Pretty Cure]]'' [[Big Bad|Big Bads]] were omnicidal maniacs. The Dark King in the original series and Max Heart started the trend by trying to destroy the Universe because it was in his nature; Lord Akudaikahn in Splash Star was basically his [[Expy]]; Dune in Heartcatch was defined by his hatred of everything.

* Yami Malik of ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!]]'' explicitly states in the manga that all he wants is total destruction of everyone and everything.
** Then of course there's Zorc.
* Clear Note, the final [[Big Bad]] of ''[[Gash Bell]]'' manga, intends to become the new King of Demons solely so that he can use the associated privilege of erasing from existence any demons he doesn't like, to erase everyone indiscriminately. His reasons boil down to existing only to kill other demons and wanting to do it in the most efficient way. [[Person of Mass Destruction|He also nearly makes the Earth uninhabitable with his ultimate spell.]]
* ''[[The Lucifer and Biscuit Hammer]]'' has [[Big Bad]] The Mage, who is poised to destroy the Earth by hitting it with [[Exactly What It Says
** The protagonists, on the other hand, are led by a [[Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds]] who intends to destroy the Earth herself if she defeats the Mage -- {{spoiler|she's suffering from a [[Soap Opera Disease]] and doesn't want the Earth to go on without her.}} [[Failure Is the Only Option|The Earth just can't catch a break in this series, can it?]]
* In ''[[Noein]]'', {{spoiler|Noein's goal is to absorb all possible futures into his own reality, then end the entire universe.}}
Line 64:
* Imperiex of the [[DCU]], a hive minded mechanical entity, saw its purpose as being the "hollowing" of the universe, destroying the flawed creation and remaking it in a new Big Bang. Ironically, {{spoiler|the flaw is detected in the universe was itself, and a massive cooperative effort managed to throw him into the past where he in fact became the Big Bang in the first place, via a [[Stable Time Loop]], a fact which Imperiex realizes the moment before it dies}}.
* DC Comics' [[Crisis Crossover|''Crisis'' crossovers]] has the following:

* John "Grimjack" Gaunt walks away from Heaven to save his friends. [[Who Wants to Live Forever?|The consequences were that he was denied any afterlife and was doomed to be reborn remembering his memories for all eternity]]. His soul was bound to the pan dimensional city known as Cynosure. Cynosure was build to harvest the good and evil energies of an entombed supreme being (firstborn of the multiverse) until it was ready to repeat the process of birthing the multiverse in an unending cycle. Grimjack's latest incarnation travels back in time to warn himself of the doom and to [[Death Seeker|break it]] he has to end the multiverse by destroying Cynosure. {{spoiler|Future Grimjack succeeds in manipulating present John in freeing the Supreme being from his sleep. In Grimjack's second incarnation we see the Supreme being walking around in mortal form giving the demons the chance to end his life and let the multiverse die in entropy. They fail. We never see if future Grimjack succeeds because the series ended with the death of the second incarnation.}}
** The demons created to build Cynosure prefer entropy. They did not see the point of constant rebirths so they betrayed their maker.
* The Cult Of The Unwritten Book from ''[[
** In a very different way, [[Nightmare Fuel|The Candlemaker]] also qualifies.
* Doomsday from the [[DCU]]. The name says it all. He's also one of the most primitive examples, he's little more than a frightened but sadistic alien man-child who wants to kill everything that might be a threat to him. And he thinks ''everything'' is a threat.

* In ''[[The Matrix]]'' sequels, Smith, corrupted into a virus after his first fight with Neo, has gone rogue and now considers both the machines and humans as equally flawed and deserving of extinction. Whereas he originally just wanted to destroy Zion, his new goal is to infect and destroy everything, which would also destroy him.
** Although the sequels did have him wanting to destroy the Matrix, and most likely the machines, the original film did briefly imply that Smith hated the Matrix as much, if not even moreso, as he hates humans, and that he also hates the matrix just as much as the Redpills hate it, so it is very likely that he did have plans during even the original film to eliminate the Matrix, and Neo defeating him only gave him the capability to act upon this desire.

* The eponymous machines of [[Fred Saberhagen]]'s ''[[Berserker (Literature)|Berserker]]'' series will stop at nothing less than the total eradication of all life. Note that this was what they were ''programmed'' to do (though this was supposed to be targeted only at a certain enemy star empire), so they don't exactly fit the mold -- but whoever programmed them to do it probably did.
* In David Eddings' [[The Redemption of Althalus]], the god of destruction, Daeva, wants to undo all creation. Interestingly, Daeva was originally a good god, or at least neutral, and had the job of destroying things that were no longer necessary so that creation wouldn't become overpopulated. However, only destroying things meant that Daeva felt nothing but emptiness, whereas his brother Deiwos and sister Dweia got to feel the joy and love of creation respectively. Daeva tried to find a friend in Ghend but if anything, Ghend's company was what finally tipped him over the edge into [[If I Can't Have You|destroying everything so everyone would feel the same nothingness that he feels]], as well as breaking the power of Deiwos and Dweia.
* The [[Big Bad|Storm King]] of [[Tad Williams]]' ''~Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn~'' series hovers on the border between Omnicidal Maniac and [[Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds]]. Presented initially as an [[Eldritch Abomination|implacable force of destruction]] waiting to be [[Sealed Evil in

* [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast|Ruin]], [[Big Bad]] of [[Brandon Sanderson]]'s ''[[Mistborn]]'' Trilogy, is basically Omnicidal Mania incarnate. It was one of the two primal gods (its counterpart was Preservation), who combined their powers to create the world- something to which Ruin agreed only on the condition that it would get to destroy said world someday. To be fair, one can't really hold this against Ruin, as it's the literal god of destruction and is just doing its job, but still the thing seems incapable of recognizing that unchecked destruction is ''bad'' (or maybe it does recognize it, but because of what it is it is incapable of caring).
Line 129:
** Though under Morgoth's influence, Sauron was infected with some seeds of the same madness. As JRRT notes at one point, rebellion against the Creator leads naturally toward nihilism. Ironically, Morgoth has a goal that simply can not be achieved, the universe can only be changed, not unmade, by any power less than God. JRRT noted that Morgorth, if he could, would grind the universe to dust, and then hate the dust because it was made by Eru (God), but the dust would still ''exist'', frustrating Morgoth...and even then the world could in theory by restored by the other Valar.
* Chaos from the [[Dragonlance]] series of novels wants to destroy Krynn, and probably the rest of the universe as well. Chaos is the wellspring from which everything came, and also from which everything will return, the Aspect of Chaos that emerged in ''Dragons of Summer Flame'' just wanted to hasten the process. The deity Morgion also appears to have some Omnicidal Maniac tendencies, as he is the god of Madness and Disease. One of his lines in a novel is ''I am Morgion...I am the end of all things.''
* In the second two books of the ''[[Old Kingdom]]'' trilogy {{spoiler|Orannis the Destroyer is [[Sealed Evil in

* Wyrm, the enormous serpent who is the [[Big Bad]] of ''[[The Book of the Dun Cow]]'', plans to burst out of the earth and destroy everything in the universe. It is even explicitly stated that he is capable of killing ''angels'' if he wants to.
* "The Great Lord of the Dark" from the ''[[Wheel of Time]]'' series: while most of his followers believe that after he his freed and remakes the world they will rule beneath him, a recent book showed {{spoiler|that Moridin/Ishmael claims that they are all fools because when The Dark One is freed he will simply destroy everything, including his own worshipers.}}
** {{spoiler|Moridin expresses that he's quite alright with this scenario, too, as he is quite sick of the cyclic nature of time. This [[Your Mileage May Vary|may]] qualify as a [[Suicidal Cosmic Temper Tantrum]], seeing as how he'll cease to exist too and is very much aware of this. In fact, it's a good portion of why he keeps working with The Dark One.}}
* The White Witch from ''[[The Chronicles of Narnia]]'' is pretty nasty, but you don't know how ''utterly evil'' she actually is until the [[Prequel]] ''The Magician's Nephew''. She used [[Fantastic Nuke|the Deplorable Word]] to wipe out ''every single life form in her universe except herself'', then [[Sealed Evil in

* Azkadellia from ''[[Tin Man (TV series)|Tin Man]]'' creates a device which the Mystic Man states will bring about "the complete destruction of the OZ." The device is designed to fix the two moons of the OZ in a permanent solar eclipse which as any scientist will tell you, will ultimately result in the destruction of all life.
** Correction, there is only one moon, but there are two suns. The whole point is that there is an extremely rare double-eclipse happening (i.e. both suns "hiding" behind the moon), which Azkadellia plans to lock into place.
* Early ''[[Power Rangers]]'' villains were always talking about conquering or destroying the world, the same villain going from one to the other and back frequently. From season five onward, villains are more certain about what it is they're after.
Line 157:
*** The season finale suggested that they may have the opposite motive, attempting to kill the Doctor in the hope of ''averting'' a prophecy rather than bringing it about. Then again, they may be attempting to kill everyone, [[Well-Intentioned Extremist|believing the prophecy to be worse than that]].

* The Bio-Vizier Mantrid in ''[[Lexx]]'' went from a garden-variety psychopath to a complete nihilist who {{spoiler|managed to destroy the 'Light' Universe with his Drone Arms, which would obliterate a planet and use the materials to make new Drone Arms. They were capable of moving faster than light (considerably so), and he was eventually tricked (AFTER they had '''consumed''' the 'Light' universe) into bringing them too close together, where their collective gravity ended up collapsing into a 'Big Crunch', the opposite of a Big Bang. Of course, the so-called "Heroes" were shunted into the 'Dark' universe by the forces of the collapse.}}
* In ''[[Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
** In the ''[[Star Trek Millennium]]'' novels, Weyoun becomes host to a Pah-Wraith after the creation of the red wormhole. The Pah-Wraiths' eventual goal is to have the blue and the red wormholes open in immediate proximity to one another, resulting in an epic battle between the Prophets and the Pah-Wraiths. However, the merging of the wormholes will result in a Warp 10 shockwave that will obliterate everything in its path. Given that Warp 10 means "simultaneously everywhere in the universe", the shockwave will result in the end of everything. Luckily, {{spoiler|the Prophets win the battle and restore everything to the way it was}}.

== Mythology and Religion. ==
* [[Egyptian Mythology]] had two examples. One was Sekhmet, a [[Blood Knight]] who may be [[Fun Personified|Hathor's]] [[Super-Powered Evil Side]], that is known to regard everything as an enemy. The other was [[Big Bad]] Apep/Apophis, the [[Anthropomorphic Personification]] of [[Chaotic Evil|chaos]], [[Dark Is Evil|darkness]] and all the world's ills. Prior to the demonisation of Set/Sutekh, this was ''the'' [[God of Evil]], who constantly tried to devour Ra(aka ''the sun''), which [[Captain Obvious|would end the world.]] People prayed ''against'' this being.
* [[Norse Mythology]] has most of the frost giants, as well as Jormungandr and Fenrir head in this direction during [[The End of the World
* The [[The Fair Folk|Nuckelavee]] of Orcadian mythology is a truly [[Complete Monster|monstrous]] example of [[The Fair Folk]]. Resembling a skinless rider fused to the back of his monstrous horse, it rises from the sea to spread disease among crops, livestock and people.

* The Excrucians in ''[[
* The Deathlords and their servants, the Abyssal Exalted, from ''[[Exalted]]'' fit this trope to a T. The Deathlords seek revenge on a world that betrayed them by feeding it to Oblivion, and many of the Abyssals believe that they're delivering the blessed perfection of the grave to a suffering world. This has been backed up mechanically by Second Edition rules; every Abyssal Charm (magic power) is rooted at destroying something, be it a life or a loyalty.
** The Neverborn are the ghosts of fundamental entities who cannot be separated from existence, whose death messed up the cycle of reincarnation and created the Underworld and who want to destroy the universe, apparently so that they can finally finish dying.
Line 186:
* The demons of the Abyss from the ''[[Dungeons and Dragons]]'' settings. They are believed to be the will of the Abyss itself, which is of course endless raw chaos, distilled into sentient and individual form, with the ultimate goal of eradicating everything other than themselves. Assuming they succeed, as [[Chaotic Evil]] they'll then turn on each other, and when they are all destroyed, the multiverse will be silent once again. The exception is [[Magnificent Bastard|Graz'zt]], who as befitting the Dark Prince of Deception, prefers that the world remain around for him to rule.
** While in 3rd and earlier editions this might be an example of [[Chaotic Stupid]], in 4th it's their defining characteristic.
*** And then there's Tharizdun from the ''[[Greyhawk]]'' setting whose goal is the destruction of all existence finishing with himself. It took the combined efforts of all the other gods, good and evil, just to [[Sealed Evil in
*** Thanatos, supreme Immortal of Entropy, supposedly has similar plans for the [[Mystara]] cosmology, although given his [[Smug Snake|egotism]] and [[Hypocrite|cowardice]], it's questionable whether he'd ultimately include ''himself'' on the To-Be-Annihilated list.
** The book Elder Evils is full of [[Eldritch Abomination|Eldritch Abominations]] who would very much like to destroy the world/worlds/universe/multiverse.

* The Shivans from the ''[[Free Space|Descent: Freespace]]'' series are an entire ''race'' of Omnicidal Maniacs. They've managed to destroy The Ancients, a civilization that was way bigger and more advanced than the Terran and Vasudan races combined. In fact, they've been named after Shiva, "The Destroyer", ''because'' they never attempted to communicate and only seems to be interested in blowing up stuff that ''isn't'' Shivan. The first game had cutscenes which chronicle the rise and fall of the Ancients from the Ancients' perspective (complete with [[Ominous Latin Chanting]]), and they call them "The Destroyers". The cutscenes reveal that the Ancients figured out a way to defeat the Shivan menace, but it was too late. This [[Lost Technology|Ancient information]] was later discovered by Vasudan scientists giving the Terrans and Vasudans just enough time to save their collective arses. But not before {{spoiler|the Vasudan homeworld was completely leveled, killing four billion of them, and just ''right'' before the Shivans got to Earth.

This is the ''only'' kind of [[Big Bad]] you could find in the [[Darker and Edgier|darkest period]] in ''Mega Man'' history. He starts off as an ambitious scientist, [[Fantastic Racism|who sees Reploids]] [[Just a Machine|as mere tools instead of actual sentient beings]], and was getting tired of the constant [[Robot War|Robot Wars]] that they wage against humankind. When a cure was finally made (the Mother Elf) to rid the world of [[The Virus]] that started the war in the first place, Weil Brainwashed it to become his tool for destruction, and initiated the [[World Sundering|Elf Wars]], where, in the span of ''only 4 years'', a large portion of the human and Reploid populations (60 and 90%, respectively) were wiped out. After ''that'' war, [[And I Must Scream|he is sentenced to immortality, where his consciousness was transferred to a self-regenerating armor, and then sent to forever exile on the barren wasteland that he created.]] When he comes back (which his [[What an Idiot!|"executioners"]] ''didn't'' count on) he makes sure that the humans suffer the same way he did, or worse.

The only reason they haven't is because they are also perfectly fine with attacking each other if there are no other victims. They are also compelled to seek out the Old Gods, an endeavor that usually takes centuries. Sadly, the Old Gods become tainted by the Darkspawn and become insane Archdemons that are also Omnicidal. The Archdemons are able to unite the Darkspawn and launch campaigns to wipe out Thedas known as Blights.

By the time the player character encounters him, he has become, essentially, the [[Anthropomorphic Personification]] of hunger, has already consumed all life on several inhabited planets, and, if left unchecked, will soon do the same to the entire galaxy...and beyond.

* In the opening of ''[[Shin Megami Tensei Nocturne]]'' Hikawa succeeds in bringing about the Conception that destroys the world (although the one who does the actual destruction is YHWH, who intends to have the world recreated afterwards through a Reason).

A far more serious example, and far more lethal, is {{spoiler|Father Elijah}}.
* The Reapers from ''[[Mass Effect]]''. Every 50,000 years they wipe out all space-faring sentient life in the galaxy. They've done this countless times before the events of the first game. No clear motive for this has been established yet, but the most popular theory is that {{spoiler|they need the genetic material and resources of sentient civilizations to build more of themselves}}. The third and final game may yet reveal more.
** The third and final game has been released since the above Troper's paragraph. It turns out the Reapers' cycle is because {{spoiler|the Catalyst, who controls the Reapers, believes that every time organics advance to a certain point, they will create a synthetic race, and the synthetic race will then always wipe out their creators. So the Reapers were invented as a solution; the Reapers harvest the organics in advance every time they create a synthetic race, so the organics can be "preserved" as Reapers themselves and give the next cycle of organics a chance to advance, hence the reason why organics are melted into paste to make Reapers. Once Shepard comes along with the Crucible, the Catalyst is given three more options instead of the Reapers' cycle: destroying the Reapers, controlling the Reapers, or fusing organics and synthetics into a single race making the cycle unnecessary.}}
