Kardashev Type 12.0 Teraversal Civilizations

A civilization whose domain is a "Teraverse," a reality-complex of such magnitude that the gigaversal scale is but a single trivial component. At this level, the distinction between creator and creation dissolves further; the civilization's consciousness and computational processes are the teraversal structure. Interactions at this scale involve mediating or arbitrating between conflicting ontological frameworks (different gigaverses) that might have mutually exclusive laws of logic, causality, or mathematics.

Kardashev Type 12.0 Teraversal Civilizations Example: The Bulk Beings in the film Interstellar operate in higher dimensions to manipulate gravity across time, but a Type 12.0 civilization would exist in the "bulk" outside of all possible bulks. It would be like the author of a book who is also the publisher of the library, the distributor to all bookstores, and the concept of literacy itself, all simultaneously.
