Destroyers are ultra-violent villains who exist to destroy everything around themselves, they are a type of Cataclysm but not all Cataclysms are Destroyers and vice versa - Destroyers are single-minded and untiring, they will continually destroy until they are either destroyed or imprisoned: they can not be reasoned with, bribed or made to retreat - in short they are a living nightmare.

Destroyers are almost always omnicidal, to them anything that gets in their path must be utterly obliterated - this makes them different from some other omnicidal villains as they don't seek "undeath" or some strange nihilistic "peace": they simply kill out of a never-ending rage.

Destroyers may be considered nihilistic as well, since they are so full of rage that they often will not stop until either overpowered or killed: a Destroyer may be so full of battle-lust that they resist damage that would normally wound or even kill a normal person, which only makes them all the more dangerous..

To qualify as a Destroyer a villain must exhibit the following traits:

• Untiring (Destroyers rarely ever rest, their rampage is without end - which is often one of the main reasons heroes band together to face them)

• Unstoppable (Destroyers often exhibit massive amounts of power and resistance, enemies can pummel them repeatedly and often the Destroyer will just keep on coming like a charging bull to a red flag)

• Unfeeling (Destroyers can not be moved by pity, they know no fear and offers of alliances are futile at best - they are unbridled destruction, raw and utterly without mercy)
