Type: Null

Type: Null was created by Faba of the Aether Foundation to be an "Anti-UB Fighting life-form". Codenamed "Beast Killer", Type: Null was given cells taken from all known Pokémon types with the intention of giving it the ability to shift between types by holding a corresponding Memory, an ability originally inspired by the myths about Arceus found in Canalave Library. This ability led the Aether Foundation to give it the name Type: Full. Three known models of Type: Full were created, but all three rejected the RKS System and went berserk. After being subdued, the three Type: Full were given limiter helmets to lessen the effects of the RKS System's rejection and were put into permanent cryogenic stasis, and the "Beast Killer" project was deemed a failure, and their name changed to Type: Null.

A theoretical civilization that has transcended the standard Kardashev energy metric entirely, operating on the principle of Epsilon-Null—the utilization of energy so perfectly efficient it approaches a state of zero-point entropy generation or even negative entropy (syntropy). This isn't about harnessing more power, but about achieving perfect, lossless transactions with the universe. Their "energy signature" isn't a giant flare, but a profound, localized silence in the background thermodynamic noise of the cosmos, a perfect pocket of order. They have mastered the art of doing everything with absolutely nothing wasted, turning existence into a frictionless, eternal engine.
Kardashev Type Epsilon Null Civilization Example: A Type Epsilon Null civilization's ship wouldn't move by expelling plasma; it would navigate by gently persuading the quantum vacuum fluctuations in front of it to not happen, creating a gradient of "non-events" that it smoothly slides down. Its cities would be colder than the surrounding space, not because they lack energy, but because they've perfectly locked all energy into useful work, leaving no waste heat to radiate. It's the ultimate asceticism of power.

A civilization that has achieved Zeta-Null, a state of complete ontological independence. It no longer harnesses energy from the universe; it has decoupled its existence from the universe's foundational constants and laws. Its continued being and operations are entirely self-referential and self-sustaining, requiring no external input, context, or framework. To lower civilizations, it appears as a persistent, impossible anomaly—a bubble of "un-reality" that follows its own utterly private physics. It is the ultimate form of existential sovereignty.
Kardashev Type Zeta Null Civilization Example: Imagine a painting that doesn't need a canvas, paint, or a painter—it just is, and its colors are defined only in relation to each other, not to any external light source. A Type Zeta Null civilization is that painting. It doesn't orbit a star; it exists in a self-contained pocket where the concepts of "star" and "orbit" are simply irrelevant to its internal, closed logic of existence.
