This sounds like a stupid question but...

I would like to know what does the word embodiment of a Universe mean?

It means that the thing or person is the universe itself.

In general, embodiment means that it represents or incarnate something.

Can you give me an explanation/definition of what embodiment means in general? Does it also have different meanings in fiction?

 

[Antoniofer]

For general rule, fiction terms are the same to those irl.

Now, embodiments or incarnations may involve several things: creatures born from x can be considered embodiments of that same thing, it may means also that is literally x, or is x (or an aspect of it) made flesh. This are however literal interpretations, more metaphoric examples simply means its a good example of x.

Well with all respects but can you give me a much understandable explanation?

 

[Antoniofer]

Can't say much beyond of what the dictionary says tho... character is a physical (or not physical) manifestation/personification of an quality, force, emotion or concept; what abilities and traits would a character have depends of the feats.

if someone is the embodiment of something it can mean several things, you are made of said thing, you are a thing given form(usually non-physical things such as speed or light) so you basically are that thing instead of being made of it

Embodiment of the universe can mean a lot, as a title it can just mean something like someone that acts like a wise apathic man, but if you get powers it can mean:

-you are as big as the universe due to being it.
-omnipresence there
-you'll live as long as the universe does.
-cosmic awareness
-maybe controlling the universe's contents.

Take this as an example: there's a character that for some reason doesn't want to fell rage anymore, and thus it decides to remove his rage; as a secondary effect the rage manifests in the world as an entity: that entity is the embodiment of that character rage. Other example is that there's a planet, and due rule of nature this planet needs to preserve itself and repels/eliminate any potential threat, and thus it manifest its will as some entity with certain powers: this entity its the embodiment of the planet will. Or perhaps, in a more complex sceneario, something really bad happened in the world, and made people suffer a lot, and all that emotional energy gave birth to an entity based in all the pain and agony that of all these people: that entity is the emdiment of suffering.
