[Marvel] Is there a greater point/impetus for the Multiversal cycle of rebirth and death?

So I know it originally began with the Celestials warring against the First Firmament and broken pieces becoming the 2nd Cosmos, but is there a reason why the cycle has repeated so often that there are 7 previous Multiverses? Is there some kind of greater point or reason for the Multiverse to be recreated and destroyed like this?

Or something moving it forward? Why is it still going on?

And a reason why the last survivor becomes a Galactus figure in the next multiverse?

What is the The One Above All doing with this?

[Spoilers C3] What are some major changes you can see happening in future seasons of the animated shows?

So its kind of impossible to adapt the campaigns 1:1 due to the limitations of the medium. And they've already changed things up in a few major ways for both LOVM seasons 1-3 and Mighty season 1. What are some other major changes you can see happening? For LOVM, M9 and a future BH show?

One I think is probably happening is the Dawnfather will be more of a dick than he was in campaign. More of a kind of stern authoritarian figure across all 3 animated shows.

[Marvel] Is it ever commented on how physically attractive basically all the X-Men are? Like do modelling agencies ever approach them for group photoshoots?

Like I know a lot of superhero groups have attractive members, but it seems the X-Men seem to have someone who appeals to almost every demographic in terms of attractiveness.

My understanding is that sometime after the Gods arrived they made a deal with the Primordials. Seemingly something like you can create and do your thing, but dont but give the mortals divine magic.

And the Archheart and the Primes were the ones who broke it?

So why are the Betrayers called the Betrayers then? Surely its the other way round? And why did the Primordials want to restrict mortals from accessing that?

Like how did they explain it to the public? Or more importantly the government officials and elites?

Surely every rich person would want V-One for the chance at immortality?

And how did Vought manage with supes that couldnt die or age out?

With lightning bending and metal bending its understandable those would spread as people like Toph and the Fire Nation royalty encourage/allow the teaching of those sub-bending disciplines.

But Hama invented bloodbending, Katara outlawed it and its pretty unlikely Katara taught it to anyone else. Hama was also old and imprisoned in the Fire Nation, its unlikely she got to teach anyone else (assuming she didnt die).

So how did Yakone end up learning it? Did he re-discover it independently?

Specifically his 9th level counterspell moment.

In the final arc, Scanlan has a sort internal dilemma going on due to Vax's fate/revenant state.

Scanlan has access to a Wish spell. Which he could theoretically use to save Vax after the Vecna fight. Although Matt made it clear Scanlan wouldnt have much time to save Vax so he would need to use it immediately after the Vecna fight latest. So he spends most of the Vecna fight saving his 9th level spell until hes forced to use it to prevent Vecna escaping.

But LOVM doesnt really 'show' counterspell per say. And Scanlan doesnt really have much in the way of higher power spellcasting unlike his campaign counterpart. He has some obviously, but hes not really shown doing half of what his campaign counterpart can do.

So how are they going to adapt it? Will they adapt it?

How would say the show versions of the characters compare to their campaign selves?

The Mighty Nein seem a lot more trusting of each other is a big one. Early Mighty Nein (particularly Caleb) were very touch and go with each other. I kind of wondered if the party would split during early C2.

Late to the party I know but I saw [this video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obyFQ7XDaH8) of the cast doing draft picks recently on my feed and it got me thinking what is the strongest 3 man team you can make out of the 3 parties. No restrictions.

My picks:

  1. Keyleth: Probably the strongest PC across all 3 characters. Unlimited elemental wildshapes + Shapechange is pretty powerful.

  2. Scanlan Shorthalt: I know Caleb may have a better spell choice, but Scanlan's counterspell is pretty broken (Jack of all trades + inspire himself). And Scanlan has some pretty good spells as well.

  3. Yasha: So long as Scanlan shuts down any charm, sleep or other magic that could take her out of a fight she basically cant die.

Additionally what is the least optimal/funniest team?

As a reminder the guest PCs for Campaign 1 and the guest PCs for Campaign 2 although I would say in Campaign 1's case that given that we have only two seasons left and the series is now onto the Taryon and Whispered One arcs that guest PCs from earlier in the campaign who havent appeared already (Thorbir, Lyra, Kerrek) are unlikely to appear as the narrative beats associated with them are covered.

With Mighty Nein things are more open. We are still relatively early in the campaign's story. Given what was covered in season 1, Shakaste and Calianna are the only guest PCs who could potentially have featured.
