If you were to create a fictional character to serve as a metaphor for the entirety of reality, what characteristics would you give the character? Would it be human, animal, plant or inanimate object? Would it have certain personality traits? How would you symbolize the character of the combined forces of nature in a single fictitious character?

Its symbol is a simplex of zero.

Nature works.
Beautiful performance.
Some people do. They call the character God. Poor delusionals.
