Hey folks. Question for those more knowledgeable of the Champions lore.
Most of my Champions knowledge comes from 4th and 5th edition, as well as the changes made for 6th Edition/Champions Online. One concept I really liked from 5th edition (that seems to have carried over to 6th) is the idea that magic is what makes superpowers possible. With enough ambient mystic energy flowing through the universe, accidents that would be lethal instead become empowering, the laws of physics can be bent or broken, etc.
The Mystic World also outlines the Champions Multiverse in an interesting way, and at one point mentions the realm of Briah, where the embodiment of universal truths and concepts are manifested as thinking beings. They mention concepts like "The Trickster", "The Triple Goddess", "Death", as well as beings like Urizen (Order), Urthona (Art), Tharmas (Nature) and Luvah (Chaos).
So I was wondering if there was any kind of entity in the Champions lore, past or present that effectively functioned as an Avatar of Magic itself, or was basically the embodiment of magic in the Champions setting. There's characters like Tyrannon who are basically the biggest mystical bad out there outside of the more Lovecraftian stuff, but Tyrannon is more or less someone who has accumulated a lot of magical power into himself, rather than being the basic embodiment of magic itself.
Just something I wondered about given that twist on how magic works in Champions. In a sense, if there was some Avatar of Magic, it's basically the force that decides what people do and don't get superpowers in the Champions setting. Which now has me picturing some cosmic being named "Origin: The Avatar of Magic", that just happens to resemble Stan Lee, Jack Kirby and/or Steve Ditko, depending on its mood.
