We usually think, “You need to get stronger before you fight this enemy” but the Lich is different. He makes it clear that strength is a thing in the world, but he’s *beyond* strength. No matter how powerful you get, you can’t destroy him. Only stall him. Billy defeated the Lich, and, again, that only forestalled the Lich from doing harm. When Finn uses Billy’s gauntlet, the Lich destroys it like it was never a threat to begin with. The Lich eventually possesses Billy and later takes a gumball guardian blast to the face, only to burn away Billy’s foreskin and leave the Lich unharmed. By simply saying the word, “Fall” he stuns Finn and Jake I could keep going on, but those are the biggest moments that stand out to me

Something else I find really interesting is the lich’s connection with nuclear materials like bombs and pools of radiation , multiple times we see his powers cause massive explosions that look like mushroom clouds, we see that the lich was only created in the farmworld universe when jake was exposed to nuclear sludge, and even in his debut episode his well of power that rejuvenates his powers is a big hole of nuclear liquid.

@@alchemist0019 that is true, but I was referring to the fact that while the lich as a concept has always existed in ooo, the lich as we know him in the show wasn’t created until the fallout from the mushroom bombs mutated an unlucky person and gave the lich a physical form. This is also the case in the farmworld where the frozen mushroom bomb being detonated was what caused the lich to assume a new form through jake. In both cases the lich became the threat he is today because of humanity. Small side note: if the lich’s physical body came from nuclear fallout it probably also means all of his powers (the ones like the green fire he had before being killed for the first time) come straight from nuclear radiation, effectively making him a nuclear wizard which is a badass concept

I think the lich offers the show a lot more than just the depressing reality that all life will eventually end, to me he’s symbolic of the idea that we as living beings can’t give up and have to keep fighting. Our heroes fight with the lich will never end no matter how many times they win, but the lich only has to win once and it’s over, but despite the inevitable finn and jake continue to persevere, even after death. The lich to me doesn’t feel like a representation of the inevitable, but a representation of what happens when you accept defeat and give up.

I think my favorite thing about the Lich is something that was written in the notes of his character sheet by the writers: "THE LICH IS NOT FUNNY." And sure enough, he isn't, not deliberately anyway. He doesn't make jokes, or quips, or witty comebacks; he's always brutally blunt and direct. even when he's dramatically monologuing the Lich doesn't make light of the fact he's going to murder all life in existence. He does mock Finn at one point- "you are alone, child... there is only darkness for you and only death for your people"- but it's not to laugh at his expense, the Lich is simply stating the fact that Finn is going to die by his hand and there's nothing he can do about it.

He's the self described "Last scholar of Golb", who is sort of just a primordial force of chaos incarnate from what we've seen of him that's literally beaten (or at least slowed down) by the characters singing their hearts out because their song was in harmony, the opposite of chaos. So if we view the Lich as sort of an aspect of Golb rather than just chaos outright, I think maybe he represents entropy? It'd fit with the theme of the show that "everything changes," but put a darker twist on it by going on to say "And everything, inevitably, falls." Maybe I'm just grasping at threads but like, there's probably some truth in there.

Putting aside how much the Lich is an epic character, I have always respected his great power. Being completely immortal, existing from eons, killing divine beings and was many times defeated by Finn and Jake, the Lich always came back! Now he has a copy of his own hand in the multiverse and no one knows what they are doing right now. His enormous power allowed him to continue to exist in Sweet P even 1000 years after the series. When Sweet P once dies, by wounds in battle or age, Lich will come back once more.

I also like how he usually winds up "activating" whenever the slightest possibility of enabling himself to bring about the end of all life presents itself, if Bubblegum never brought Finn and Jake to the Lich's prison, he never would have possessed that snail and never have gotten out. I like to think that he also represents what humanity winds up doing when trying to avoid death in it's entirety, if we never paid any mind to the possibility of us dying or at least didn't try to act against the inevitability of it, we would live far longer and maybe even happier lives than if we had devoted ourselves to acting against it and feeding our fear of death, which would of course lead us to live paranoid lives, never allowing ourselves anything, but the risk of bringing ourselves closer to the fruition of the end.

“Before there was time, before there was anything, there was nothing. And before there was nothing, there were MONSTERS.” The Lich reveals his own backstory here. He is the void before time, the embodiment of nothingness itself, which existed primarily to end the chaos of the time of monsters. The universe could not have existed without the lich to end the previous universe, yet he sees the beginning of time as a new era of monsters, and wishes to being the universe back to the state of peace that only pure nothingness can provide.

He is what i wish people would do with villains. For the Lich, hes scary because of his power, his patiences, and his constantly preserving and unbending will. When he plays or toys with someone you know it because you know his power. He doesnt need to state it he simply does it. Its what makes his Fall monologue so good. You really begin to understand the thing that makes the Lich such an insurmountable force, yet still beatable. He has power, he has drive, and he is smart and a schemer, and in the arrogance of his power and his will he is okay with allowing himself to be beaten. Its like he takes pleasure in being defeated so when he wins its truly absolute. He couldve not become sweet p, he couldve not let fin defeat him after escaping the candy kingdom, but he did so all the same.

Basically, the Lich is the end, the decay of all things. What awaits all things in time. Though it can be delayed, such a power is not stoppable. Only ever changing. The lich goes from his original form, to a snail, to a jake hybrid, to a hand, sweet p, etc. yet he still is ever unbending in his goal. His will being constantly pushed, his goals constantly being strived for, the death of all things ever encroaching and imminent, only with the vain desperateness of things which merely prolong its inevitable arrival.

Did anyone else remembered that the Lich is already in every dimension? Except for the one where Finn is the Ice King. Another thing, I don't think that the Lich is just the Lich from the beginning. He's true form must be the one we know as Sweet P. There are two things that I think will support my theory: first the Guardians Blood and then LSP resetting Ooo. The Guardians' blood can heal right? It healed the Lich when it got contact with it. Then the time LSP reset Ooo to its real state (its Primal/Original state), Sweet P (The Lich) got reset too but he didn't turned back into being the Lich he just regrew his horn. The Lich is probably corrupted by something else. The Lich was something/someone else before he became the Lich that we know.

The lich is the manifestation of the end. But in the most literal way possible. He is the embodiment of entropy itself given a form. For every action, some energy becomes unusable, every micromoment of every conceivable time scale, some amount of energy simply becomes unusable. This is what will inevitably lead to the heatdeatg of the universe. The lich is interessting because he doesnt just act like a force of nature, he is a force of nature. No wonder he feels so, alien. So inhuman. Its because he is. His physical form is just a way so that he can directly interact with the natural world. He is the end, stagnation given form, entropy incarnate. That is what makes him so fucking cool

Entropy. He's like a personification of the eventual gradual, but inescapable decay of all things; an existential dread, which for the purposes of the show, has the capacity to explain itself... making it all the more terrifying. 😨 Very much a representation, in my view, of Friedrich Neitzche's abyss... gaze into it too long, and it gazes back into you- meaning that you begin to see the nothingness itself as an entity, and become aware of its intentions... to bring life, stars, the universe, and everything that exists to its inevitable end... which is why trying to reason with him is like trying to debate with gravity. 💀 In a show filled with songs, and wizards, and adventuring, he's a superb antagonist, because he represents the antithesis to that beautiful 'joie de vivre' the show has... the terrible, creeping awareness that all the world, and everything, will one day end- and how he is overcome is the same way it can be overcome in our lives- through the celebration, and exaltation, in all its forms, of the concept of life. 🌱🙂🌷🌳

The Lich is undoubtedly the catalyst of evil and death, which is how the dinosaurs in Adventure Time went extinct.

The Mushroom War just gave The Lich the means to return into a new form through the means of those radioactive nuclear bombs that presumably cause the end of humanity.

And Lich's line "Before there was anything, there was nothing. And before there was nothing, there were monsters." So if you read it from end to beginning, the monsters are all that is left at the end because they will kill everything and extinguish every light and life as Lich says. He is literal embodiment of entropy. And he already got into other universes (his hand got spread into multiverse, so a part of him is everywhere, just like entropy itself). He is inescapable, a force of nature. So one way or another, he will kill everyone and extinguish all light with his monster army, they will sail to a billion worlds and universes. And when monsters are all that is left, they will continue doing their job of extinguishing all life, they will kill each other until there is nothing left. When there is nothing left, the cycle of life will start again and Lich will be born again. Because he is anti-life. As long as there is life, there will always be entropy and deterioration. Before there was nothing, there were monsters. And before there were monsters, there was everything.

So what if anyone made any OCs that's self-aware of adventure time's cyclical nature and tried to either escape or break it?
