THE DARK TOWER: MISTAKE AND SCALING, THE MOST MISUNDERSTOOD VERSE.
Hello, I'm OXONOM, a french powerscaler. It will make more that one year I use Dark Tower and VSBW, but in the last few months I've realized an important distinction to consider This distinction is almost never made, not even on this wiki page regarding Gan. Indeed, today I'm going to introduce you to an important distinction to make, And I will offer some of my scales.
In The Dark Tower, at the start, there was nothing, nothing but Prim, the primordial chaotic soup. From this soup, Gan rose from it. After that, he created Dark Tower. Dark tower itself created the physical multiverse and he rose himself to infinity, like Gan.Dark Tower, will be described as the "physical Manifestation of the great god Gan", proving that Dark Tower is not Gan, so qualify "Gan" as the dark tower is wrong.
CONCLUSION:
Gan is Not Dark Tower. Dark tower is an avatar.THE OTHER AND GAN
In IT (Books), IT thinking he's at the top of cosmology, get into a limit, so he supposed that there was an Other. After that, he was terrified, And Stephen king will backup this Other, with like 3 statement.The Other dwelt in a void beyond
The Other is a power beyond all others power, the author of all there was
IT would be an infinitesimale Fly in this Other's mind
there's three major differences between Gan and The Other. Gan rose from prim, created The Dark Tower and KA. After that, He passively ascended to infinity, observing his creation. His voice continues to echoes in Macroverse chamber.
The Other, encompasses everything in his mind, dwelt in a void beyond the Macroverse, and created everything. So, the transcendance is different, analogy is different, and how they works is different, and there's no solide link between them.
CONCLUSION:
The Other is not Gan.SCALING: THE OTHER
APOPHATISM: Apophatic theology is the “negative” theology of the study of God. By this, I mean that God, in apophatic theology, cannot be described by what He is, but rather by what He is not.VSBW directly addresses this subject on its omnipotence page; it is therefore appropriate to admit that this theory is applicable in a Meta under VSBW as an authority.

Moreover, the application of apophatic theology to a character is sufficient to exactly fulfill all the criteria necessary for Tier 0, as it is a theory closely related to the mechanism of Tier 0 itself. Thus, in order to prove my Tier 0 as a whole, I will have to prove that:
The incomprehensibility of my character does not come from an inferior intellect—such as a four-dimensional square being incomprehensible to three-dimensional beings—but is incomprehensible in its very nature, namely.
The incomprehension of the character must be correlated with its power and its magnitude; it must also be. It must furthermore transcend the entirety of the qualities of the intellectual object. It would therefore not be hyperboles, but serious affirmations regarding its ontology.
Moreover, the statements of this character must be a duality, a comparison—this is the principle of “he is not” rather than “he is.” Statements beyond that should be considered exaggerations, but they will in no way hinder the scaling of the character.
In Stephen King’s universe, specifically the novel IT, the clown that took control of Derry with a 27-year cycle to devour children is intimately connected to The Dark Tower. In reality, the cosmology of The Dark Tower is linked to the entirety of Stephen King’s works.
Moreover, IT exists beyond the Macroverse, beyond the Great Turtle.
This Other dwelt in a void beyond this oneNo formal description, only an affirmation of its existence. This does not debunk apophatic theology, because in apophatic theology, the existence of a God beyond is precisely affirmed.
This Other was perhaps, the creator of IT, and the Turtle. A Force Beyond The Universe, A Power Beyond All Other Power The Author of all there was.No formal description, direct suppositions using “perhaps”; it is described as a force beyond IT’s universe, a non-duality, the author of all things, thus obtaining feats of primacy and creation.
Where IT Existed As A Titanic, Glowing Core, Which Might Be No More Than The Smallest Mote In That Other's Mind.Everything is said to be an infinitesimal speck in its mind, again with suppositions.
It is therefore clear that nothing is certain regarding The Other, except its existence beyond all things and the fact that everything is created by it, each being an infinitesimal part of its mind. Moreover, these consistent feats are sufficient to grant Tier 0 for The Other. Indivisibility is not proven, as it is unprovable in this context. However, VSBW notes that Tier 0 does not require proving all prerequisites. Therefore, within the brief expectations of scaling, I can prove that The Other is Tier 0 via: Primacy, omnipotent, feat of creation, ineffability, no distinction between ontological and objects, and insurpassability.
THE OTHER: TIER 0
Thank you for reading, I appreciate it.
I'll Add more arguments for distinction a bit after
