Biography: It's absurd. Without origin, without future. An ancient being who has achieved everything, over whom not even universes have power. His goodness once shattered the rules and consumed the meaning of victory, simply for the pleasure of it. Acetinium remained, not out of pride, but because there was never anything left to achieve. Now he watches imperfect beings, mortals who weep, laugh, fight, and fail. Not because they are strong, but because they still try. To Acetinium, their struggle is not something to mock, but the only remaining anomaly worth witnessing.

appearance: Its appearance is characterized by the following main features: Color: It is a dark green stickman. Physical: It is described as an ancient creature of great stature and imposing build. Armor: He is encased in an exoskeleton that functions as armor. Nature: More than just a stickman, he is presented as a paradoxical entity or observer with an extremely resilient body. It is known for being a cold-blooded "killing machine", capable of withstanding large explosions and only appearing to be vulnerable to extremely cold substances.

Layered exoskeletons: An infinitely durable armor layered over another, requiring immense strength and pinpoint accuracy to damage even the outermost layers. This also grants Acetinium superhuman physical prowess, surpassing even that of the strongest duelist.

Apex Pact (first name): The absurd nature of the Apex Pact manifests through a metaphysical pact, an intrinsic rejection of everything. It doesn't oppose it; it simply refuses to acknowledge it. Magic, time, immortality, divine rule, concepts—all crumble not through resistance, but simply because they exist in a realm where such things were never written. A nuclear explosion may have no effect, while a magnum shot can destabilize it, not through logic, but through the absurd nature of this being. The stronger the opponent, the more completely the Apex Pact nullifies them. Weaker opponents are not stronger by contrast; they simply exist beyond the reach of this rejection.

Total understanding While some creatures possess a form of omniscience, only Acetinium possesses absolute clarity, the ability not only to know everything, but also to understand it. He is not surprised, he never doubts, he will never question if he already knows the answer. He does not guess, learn, or deduce. He knows. Everything. From the structure of forgotten magic to the private intentions of divine beings, from alternate timelines that never occurred to outcomes no one else could even imagine. Deception, surprise attacks, and manipulation fail, not because Acetinium resists, but because they never had the chance to work.

Projection An extension of the Apex Pact, used solely for communication and awareness. Within a 15-meter radius, it sees in all directions and communicates by reflecting a monotonous version of its own voice into the listener's mind. It cannot be tracked or intercepted.

Force control: He never overexerts himself or miscalculates. He could destroy a tank by throwing a stone or gently drop a blade without raising a dust cloud. When he throws, he doesn't miss; he chooses the impact.

Unfathomable intelligence: While many beings are intelligent, Acetinium is something entirely different. It doesn't think about problems; it solves them before they even arise—a byproduct of omniscience. It can map thousands of potential futures in an instant, detect micro-changes in behavior or patterns, and predict even the most erratic minds.

Intimidation: Even the most callous beings feel dread when confronted by it. It poses no threat, yet its mere presence oppresses like an existential terror. Veterans who have seen war, gods who have witnessed time—no one is immune. Perhaps what most fear is not overwhelming power, but irrelevance. Before Acetinio, their strength means nothing. Their purpose is called into question.

Absurd nature: The Acetinio feels nothing. It has no hope. It doesn't care. Detached from temptation, free from ideology, and free from pride or pain, it is a being that exists outside the frameworks to which others cling. No threat disturbs it, no plea reaches it. You cannot anger it, inspire it, or confuse it. Where others struggle with faith, meaning, or glory, Acetinium remains unaffected, not because it has conquered them, but because it was never created to contain them. Your ideals are echoes in a chamber it never entered. To fight Acetinium is to confront something immovable, unshakeable, and, most unsettlingly, indestructible.

Challenges: The true test against Acetinium lies not in matching its strength, but in choosing between accepting the absurdity or continuing to search for its meaning. With Acetinium, being that absurdity itself, will you continue to find meaning, a weakness behind its existence? Or will you accept its absurdity? Be creative. It's not all about comparing strengths.

Nature of the pact: The Apex Pact makes no distinction between good and evil; it rejects all forms of assistance, including enhancements, healing, or magical aid. The Apex cannot receive help; it can only be left alone.

Projection limit: The projectile has a limited range of 15 meters and cannot directly affect combat. It remains vulnerable to a first shot from long range, allowing other opponents to escape.

Stagger: It may be immune to damage from massive explosions, but can still be stunned by strong physical forces such as a magnum shot.

Stagnation: Acetinium is an immutable being. He cannot evolve, improve, or grow. Despite knowing the outcome thanks to his omniscience, he always lets things happen. This creates the illusion that he can always be hit, even though he is capable of dodging.

Heavy: Acetinium's heavy build slows his movements, making him less agile in combat, allowing slightly faster opponents to exploit this.

Average duelist: A duelist with less power and less absurd physical prowess has a better chance of surviving Acetinio, as their pact activates and completely nullifies extraordinary abilities. But this doesn't mean the average duelist can completely counter Acetinio; it merely delays the inevitable.

Interesting grief bias: If a duelist demonstrates unique ideas or perspectives, Acetinium tends to observe them for a longer period, allowing for possible survival or escape.

Acetinium is an enigmatic creature. It is neither cruel nor kind. It is neither vengeful nor merciful. It is simply aloof, yet incredibly perceptive, articulate, yet devoid of emotion. It oscillates between understanding and compromise, knows all the moral frameworks, yet feels none. It neither mocks nor admires its rivals; it has no pride to satisfy nor hatred to nurture. It observes not because it cares, but because it is still here, and observation is all it has left. One might even argue that Acetinium's personality is the lack of personality itself.

To confront Acetinium is not to confront malice or judgment, but something indifferent, an immutable, invincible, and irredeemable being. It is not an opponent in the traditional sense. It is the frontier, where the one who pushes encounters the rock, where effort becomes futile not through cruelty, but through truth. The struggle itself—futile, endless, and invincible—is a statement. A refusal. By confronting Acetinium, mortals extract meaning from meaninglessness, assigning purpose to the absurd. They do not do it because it works, but because they can.

Historical data: Acetinium is an archaic creature, which manifests itself before the Earth itself. His real name was never Acetinium. That alias was given to him by Alexander Rutherford (another character from Siracelier). Acetinium's true name, or even his own, is unknown. If he does have one, it would be cryptic and require a certain level of intellect to understand, let alone pronounce. Just as the name "Acetinium" is a proper noun, the name "Apex Covenant" was also given by Alexander's father, Arnest Rutherford. However, instead of meeting Acetinium, Alex's father met one of his comrades (Protactinio). There are currently 15 species of Acetinium, including himself, and each has some kind of omniscience and Apex pact, but they all have their own unique abilities. The deities used to try to hunt Acetinium along with their other species, but most were killed, giving the illusion that they were hunting them. Powerful beings who know of the existence of Acetinio often pretend not to know anything out of fear due to its ability to destroy anything. The acetinium canonically remained in the same place for three thousand years doing nothing but standing.

Species data: All Acetinium species are named after an actinide element. Acetinium is named after element 89, "Actinium," but an "e" was added because Alexander thought it sounded better. While all species possess unique and extremely powerful abilities, Acetinium's unique ability is Clarity, which allows it to comprehend everything it knows. This makes it one of the most intelligent of its kind. Despite eons of existence, not a single one died. All members of the Acetinium species have varying levels of eloquence, with Acetinium being the most eloquent. But one of the actinides, alias "Berkelium," communicates like a normal human being.

Physical data: Acetinium's top speed is 65 mph, but you'll never see it go over 10 mph. When a blue flash appears, it's a visual signal that it's suddenly going absurdly fast even though its weakness indicates that it's actually slow. The Acetinium has no organs, neurons, tissues, brain, real face, or anything biologically normal for a living being. The Acetinium is an exoskeleton layered upon another exoskeleton layered upon another, all the way to its core.

Narrative facts: Acetinio has many interpretations since its spelling changed over the years. In 2017, Acetinium was a human in a failed experiment that gave him metallic skin. In 2018, Acetinium was an archaic, evil, and manipulative creature, but incredibly powerful. 2024 Acetinium, being the current one, is a powerful and mysterious being, completely disconnected from everything. It doesn't suppress it, but rather ignores it completely. Acetinium's central concept is to embody absurdity itself, but due to his omniscience and clarity, he cannot experience absurdity.

Other data: He is incredibly eloquent. He is neutral. He only fights when provoked. He never starts a fight. Contrary to popular belief, it's unknown whether the Apex Pact ability actually has a range limit. Its "projection" is what's mentioned as having a range limit, but never the Apex Pact itself. A common move by Acetinium is to release really big things because the creator, Siracelier, really likes to encourage that. His omniscience does not reach the fourth wall, so Acetinium does not know that he is a fictional character.
