“ | A cosmos without light and without mass-- But not without power! | „ |
Background
The Darkforce Dimension is an extra-dimensional space outside of the universe, likely mirroring its sister dimension, the Lightforce Dimension. This dimension is the source of exotic powers used by people like Mister Negative and the Cloak. It is a hungry dimension, longing for light and life (due to lacking both), stealing it away from people, and even universes, to feed itself. It's inhabitants often possess others in the Earthly planes to feed themselves and this dimension.
The dimension hosts various types of creatures of varying sizes and powers. However, they share a common goal of feeding on light and life itself.
Like it's inhabitants, who needs[1] constant sustenance[2] of life and light, it also requires that in hopes of fending off its eternal hunger. It needs a host as a tether[3] to absorb the life, light, and the soul of living beings.

Size: High Ascendent level (Located outside of many universes, the Darkforce Dimension is a reality of its own.[11] Can hold Oblivion's avatar.[35] Oblivion's avatar cannot enter the Timestream - the universe/Eternity - if it did, it will bring untold amount of cosmic catastrophes with it, and likely cause it to cease existing,[36] as such, he always manifests in regions such as the Darkforce Dimension or in the Overspace. Ecstasy, empowered by this dimension, blasted away Doctor Strange. However, it is far weaker than Agamato.[3] Stronger[7] than Doctor Strange[9], however, the latter did not have his equipment or the Eye of Agamato. A demon from the Darkforce Dimension, the Devourer, is older than universe and has hunger for the light of the universe. Stated to be capable of devouring the whole universe[21]. Fraternity of Raptors are designed after a Darkforce entity, or an entity imprisoned within the Null Space, a small region of Darkforce, known as Ratha'kon. Ratha'kon is considered to be a predator to the enigmatic and ever-living Phoenix Force[37]. The newly revived Ratha'kon, taking over the body of Robbie Richard, viewed the newly reborn Infinity Gems, now known as Infinity Stones, as something smaller than itself[38]. Despite being partially weakened by Khonshu removing parts of the barrier, a Darkforce Dimension empowered Blade was capable of battling Scarlet Witch, who now has Darkhold - who could not even stop the invasion of this dimension at it's premature stage[39], and All-Father Thor. Doctor Doom with all his might could not battle the invasion without becoming the Sorcerer Supreme and combining his might with various other mystics, including Flatine being, a higher dimensional being, to finally remove the darkforce barrier and repel the invasion[40])
Durability: High Ascendent level
Environment: Dangerous (The dimension is extremely hostile towards visitors. Upon entering the dimension, people are often forced to revisit their worst[3] memories and nightmares, ultimately driving them into madness. The dimension uses these tactics to hurt visitors and then to steal the light of their life. The inhabitants are also extremely hostile towards visitors. They would often try and possess them (or use them in any way possible) so they can ride them to the earthly planes to feed on people.)
Area(s):
- Null Space & Tree of Shadows: A region that holds the Fraternity of Raptors.
- Various planet-like regions where its inhabitants live.
Entities:
- The Devourer: A demon from the Darkforce Dimension, the Devourer, is older than universe and has hunger for the light of the universe. Stated to be capable of devouring the whole universe[21].
- Mister Negative: The demon bonded to Martin Li.
- The Predator: The demon bonded to Cloak via his cloak.
- Fraternity of Raptors: The Fraternity of Raptors, created to serve the Shi'ar, maintain their Tree of Shadows in Null Space. The tree was the way-point from which the Fraternity are connected to their Raptor Amulets and to each other. The Fraternity of Raptors, founded to serve the Shi'ar, maintains their Tree of Shadows in Null Space. The tree served as the fraternity's connection to its Raptor Amulets and one another. The Raptors live in crystals on the tree's branches, connected to their amulets in regular dimensional space. When the parasitic amulets bond to a host, the Raptor manifests in real space, while the host is transported to Null Space as a living battery. The Tree of Shadows and its guests are protected by demonic life forms who are faithful to "the source."
- And countless other demons.
Atmosphere:
- Pure darkness and has no mass,[3] and it is very cold.[3]
- The Darkforce Dimension is very hard to traverse as there is no light at all. Due to its lack of form, or even landmarks, it makes it absolutely impossible for anyone to move to the "right" place within this dimension. In addition, upon entering the dimension, people are often forced to revisit their worst[3] memories and nightmares, ultimately driving them into madness. Finding your way around this dimension, or even leaving it, is an impossible task that very few have managed to accomplish.
