Time Beasts, also known as Temporal Beasts,[1][2] are creatures capable of traveling through time. They first appeared in Let's Do the Time War Again.

Appearance[]

Time Beasts have a very complicated bodily structure. They have the head and body of a dog, with a rotund chest, moderately-sized tail, and paw-like front feet. Their back legs are smaller and thinner than the front, and reveal hairless, maroon-skinned feet below the second leg joint. They have two tan ram horns on their head, accompanying their goat-like eyes. They have a set of jagged teeth that do not necessarily correspond with one another appearance-wise, and long tongues that often hang from their mouths. They appear to have a visible tan spine protruding from their naturally-plated back armor, which is also maroon in color like their hind legs. They have black shoulder braces, with a tan outline on each. Red crystals seem to naturally grow from their body, being on their shoulder braces, and every other vertebrae of their spine.

Younger Time Beasts look very similar to adults, even right after hatching from their egg. Their eyes are closed, which reveals their skin-colored eyelids. They only have fur on their abdomens, head and tail. They don't have claws and the black parts on their shoulder braces and spines are missing. They only have five red crystals on their backs, while fully-grown Time Beasts usually have at least eight.

History[]

Omniverse[]

Time Beasts were first mentioned by Ben 10,000 in Ben Again from his point of view. He stated that they had gone on a cross-dimensional rampage.

In Let's Do the Time War AgainEon, Subdora, and Exo-Skull found several Time Beast eggs. When Ben and Rook stumbled upon them Eon used a time ray to age one of the eggs, which hatched and grew to adulthood, rampaging throughout Undertown and destroying them in a couple versions of the timeline in fights with Ben's aliens. Ben and Rook eventually used the newly built Time Cycles to revert the Beast back to an egg. Eon gave two of the eggs to Maltruant.

At the end of The End of an Era, Eon arrived in a Time Beast-pulled chariot to rescue Maltruant before he double-crossed him and left.

In A New Dawn, Maltruant used the beasts to travel to the beginning of time with his modified Annihilarrgh in order to replace the universe with a version made in his image. Both of the beasts are killed during the trip; the first died in the timestream resulting in a detour to the 1800s, and the second died crashing into the Contumelia ship.

Reproduction[]

Time Beasts lay dozens of red crystalline eggs that are similar to their body spikes. It also appears that the eggs can take a long time to hatch, with an entire road being built over them. It's implied that Time Beasts use time rays to circumvent this issue, as Eon did.

Powers and Abilities[]

Leave now, and you may still catch Maltruant in the timestream. If not, then this Time Beast's egg will power your journey to places beyond even my reach.

Professor Paradox explaining nature of Time Beasts' powers.[3]

Time Beasts possess ability to open up temporal wormholes that allow them to traverse between dimensions and timelines, up to and including the beginning of time prior to to the birth of the Universe, which is beyond even Professor Paradox's reach. They can also teleport at distances of several dozen feet, which grants them ability to outpace anyone chasing them.[4] The only way to prevent them from doing so is to use specialized Time Cycles' energy nets or immobilize them by creating a gravitational force-field around them.

As opposed to time rays used by Chronosapiens and Eon, Time Beasts can accelerate materials and living beasts by hundreds or even thousands of years, instantly petrifying them and ignoring their durability. However, some silicon-based lifeforms such as Galileans and Petrosapiens, as well as time beings such as Eon or Maltruant are impervious to these effects. Time Cycles also repeatedly demonstrated immunity to time powers.

Time Beasts can project red-colored laser beams out of their mouths, which can cause time to permanently halt if it clashes with Conductoid's electricity.

Time Beasts possess enhanced durability, being strong enough to withstand being hit by Segmentasapien's explosive projectiles, Time Cycles' missiles or Conductoid's electricity without showing visible harm. However, they will die from amplifying gravity around them, creating a black hole through interaction between time and gravity-related powers.
