{{Topquote|If something is so far beyond your imagination, it’s hard even to fear it.|Even when nearly ascended to become a truly infinite being, but with human suffering in their past unredeemed, even this would cause even a God eternal pain, from Transcendent.}}
{{Topquote|Impossible. A mere human could not bargain with the Transcendence. She, he couldn’t possibly comprehend the meaning of the choice, let alone make a valid decision.”<br>

''“She’s right, Drea, this isn’t about rivalry, about one bunch of humans lording it over the rest. We’re dealing with the Transcendence. It genuinely is a higher life-form, a higher consciousness. You could no more debate with it than a flower, or a blade of grass, could argue with you.''|This is just the barest bone description of the Transcendence without going into the absolute insane shit they do, from Transcendent.}}
{{Topquote|It isn’t going to be like that. There are no teachers, no guides. This is the Transcendence, remember, a manifestation of the group, not of individual actions.”<br>

''“Like a Coalescence?”''<br>

''“Like a Coalescence, yes—although a Coalescence is a mindless machine, and the Transcendence is the essence of mind. There’s nobody in charge. Alia, I called this a ‘Transcendent world,’ but that’s just a simplifying label. It isn’t a headquarters, or a capital. It’s just that many of the population here happen to be Transcendents. But there are Transcendents all over the Core—indeed all over the Galaxy. Just as individuals don’t matter, nor do places; the Transcendence is everywhere, or nowhere… Even I’m not in charge; I’m only here to point out your choices. It’s always been up to you.''|A human envious at how powerful the Transcendence really are, from Transcendent.}}
Humanity from the far, ''far'' future. Basically the [[Star Trek|Q from Star Trek,]] only on steroids and completely unhinged. 

So named because of how the multiple transhuman races have 'ascended' to a literal plane of higher existence called no-space, kinda like the Matrix if it could reality warp. Oh yeah, you heard us right. '''''Reality warp'''''. As such, the Transcendence was more of a collective consciousness than an actual polity. They were also just as homicidal as the ICoG, with Transcendence Humanity going on their merry murder-spree across the entire galactic supercluster, turning entire Neutron Stars into relativistic ICBMs and even contemplating on condemning every single Human whoever lived or will live into perpetual agony, ignoring the levels of causality contradictions and paradoxes it would create. Just because ''they can''. 

That last statement can <u>'''NOT'''</u> be understated in terms of the scale here. The ability to fold every single timeline of Humanity into one meta-reality is truly mind-bogglingly extreme. As an example, ''just'' the number of mere Human genome combinations could reach up to 1.6*10<sup>2041</sup> alternate ''universes'' with each unique genotype for just <u>'''ONE'''</u> Human. And that is just genome variety, never mind the various alternate actions which could create its own branch of alternate realities and sub-realities. ''Never mind'' that this is just taken without consideration of the 750,000+ history of Homo ''sapiens sapiens'' and the potential branches of different universes that would permutate from time travel abuses. What the Transcendence was doing, was their fusing of both the M-theory “bulk” and the Many Worlds Multiverse theory into one incoherent screaming nightmare. [[Chaos]] wishes it could be this nihilistic when it grows up. 

If they are feeling incredibly spiteful today, they may turn a baseline Human into a Quantum Wave Function entity and force them to monitor the universe as it dies from premature heat death. Still, despite all their omniscient and neigh omnipotent power, they finally got the full attention of the Xeelee after they were finally sick of our [[bullshit]] and proceeded to Godstomp them back into the literal stone age; trapping the remnants of Humanity on Earth in a four-dimensional hypercube while letting the rest of Mankind to [[Grimdark|freeze to death.]]
