Swamp Thing (Classic) Regeneration Downgrade

[Planck69]

This should be straightforward. According to his profile, he has High-Godly regeneration. However, the scans linked clearly specify only his body being destroyed and his essence surviving to make him a new body. Most likely, this might just be a holdover from when High-Godly entailed regeneration from the destruction of the multiverse.

By our current standards, this should just be Low-Godly regeneration and the profile be changed to reflect this. If there is any other evidence to point towards the current degree of regeneration staying the same though, feel free to post it here.

I'm making an anti monitor crt since his profile is outdated just like swamp things, and it would affect swamp things regen too. His regen is high godly for other reasons and AMs erasure is conceptual since abstract realms exist

Shouldn't it be Mid Godly due to being able to come back through the green?

His essence survives. This automatically disqualified him from High-Godly regeneration.

When you're done with it, you can re-update him. This CRT isn't pausing because of that.

He still has some non-corporeal part of him left though. And only his body gets destroyed, with no mention of his mind and soul. I think it should just be Low-Godly.

 

[Garchomp777]

Anti matter destroys from all planes of existence so he should get resistance to existence erasure even on a spiritual level

 

[Garchomp777]

And yes with the scans in his profile it should be immortality type 8 and 4 and low godly not high godly anymore

His essence gets EE resistance at best. His body got erased just fine.

[Garchomp777]

It should be changed, he only has high godly due to his profile being overlooked when new definitions for the term was made

 

[Planck69]

Bump

 

[Antvasima]

This makes sense to me.

@Zensum @C2_of_Omegon @Eficiente @Qawsedf234 @Sandman31 @SuperAPM @Firestorm808 @EmperorRorepme @LuciferDC099 @Newendigo @Ehnkr2beboh @Deagonx @Elizio33

What do you think about this?

 

[LuciferDC099]

I agree with this.

 

[Garchomp777]

So it would be
Low Godly Regen
Resistance to Existence erasure and soul manipulation (the crisis erases you on All planes of existence )
Acausality Type 1 (Swamp Things history was not affected by the crisis on infinite earths)
Maybe conceptual manipulation if someone has the scan of AM threatening sphere of gods, or another CRT has to be made for that

 

[Planck69]

All of those things are another CRT, except maybe resistance to Existence Erasure. Make one for the rest on your own, this one is just focused on regeneration.

 

[Ehnkr2beboh]

Low Godly seems fine.

 

[Garchomp777]

I'll have to make a CRT to justify the other stuff, but why was this even high godly in the first place? Was it following older standards?

 

[Antvasima]

Probably, yes.

 

[Planck69]

High-Godly used to just be Low-Godly/Mid-Godly + multiverse destruction.

 

[Antvasima]

Yes.

 

[Eficiente]

I have been saying this all along, and it's not even Low-Godly, his essence just possessed some plant life and recreated his body from that. So type 2 Immor., Possession and some regen to pick things around and use them to create his body, which High-Mid would fit better as.

He already has the first 2 powers and I already added EE resistance for his essence when I noticed this error, his regen just needs to be downgraded. Matt said at the time that his essence in the context of the character meant something else that would still give him High-Godly regen but never clarified what he meant and nor does the profile does it on its own, so this happens.

 

[Planck69]

Huh. So Immortality (Type 6) and Regeneration (High-Mid) then?

It could probably be low godly since he is omnipresent in plant life so he technically doesn't need to possess anything as he is already one with all plants

Eficiente might be right though, its either low godly or type 3

 

[Eficiente]

He already has type 6 Immor.

You're not making sense, he's not omnipresent in plant life all the time and had to merge with the Green in this feat, if he was omnipresent then his "body" wouldn't have been destroyed, and Low-Godly would mean he can make a body from nothing, which he can't.

 

[Antvasima]

Eficiente makes sense to me. Thank you for helping out so much.

 

[Planck69]

So, I take it that High-Mid regeneration was accepted?

 

[Antvasima]

Yes. It can be applied if you wish.

 

[Antvasima]

Just link to the profile page that you need unlocked, so I can do so.

[Antvasima]

Okay. Tell me here when you are done.

 

[Planck69]

I'm done. It can be locked.

 

[Antvasima]

Thank you. I will lock the page and close this thread then.
