Variants, officially known as Extra-Reality counterparts[1] or parallel-universe duplicates[2], refer, in the omniversal sense, to alternate-universe versions of an individual.
Note: The term "Variants" is adopted for simplicity, inspired by Marvel terminology. However, its meaning here is not identical, as it applies across the entire Omniverse rather than a single multiversal framework.
Overview
Overview[]
Variants, unlike Snapshots, which are perfect copies of individuals created by the Loop, are individuals originating from different realities. They can be:
- The same (or nearly identical) person. Example: The Visitor and The Visitor (Reality Unknown)
- The same person with a completely different appearance (face, age, gender, species, etc). Example: Drift and Catalyst
- Two individuals considered different, but sharing the same appearance. Example: Rippley and Poseidon
To illustrate the first case, The Visitor was a member of The Seven and primarily operated within Reality Zero before being lost to the Chrome. In contrast, The Visitor (Reality Unknown) originates from another reality (more precisely a diverging timeline) where The Seven also exists. His armor and physical characteristics, such as his height, differ from those of The Visitor, and his personality is also distinct. Additionally, unlike The Visitor, he did not confront The Herald, but instead faced Dark Voyager (Reality Redacted).

Trivia[]
- During Chapter Seven: Season 1, it was revealed that The Seven themselves had variants from other realities. The first member to be introduced as such is The Visitor (Reality Unknown), a variant of The Visitor.
- The alter-ego phenomenon between E.G.O and A.L.T.E.R members may be because of the variants phenomenon, because unlike the snapshots which keep the name of their original version, the alter-egos have completely different names and physical characteristics differ for some of them.
- Midas and Marigold are likely Variants, but it's not completely sure since the origin of Marigold is completely unknown.
