"Dark hearts were collected and Void became a destroyer god, but the insane Hyness was already spit out by the time he took on his final form. While that last form of Void was being born, his innocent spirit began to mix with the urge to destroy and annihilate. During such time, he saw Kirby for the first time, felt something, and started to resemble his face. He was also influenced by the various hearts that were collected by Hyness, and transforms into various other faces as well." • Shinya Kumazaki about Void's core having a face like Kirby; Kirby Star Allies Vol. 4 Interview The Ultimate Part 2, see the kanjis here · Nintendo Dream, issue of July, 2018

Summary
Void is a mysterious, ancient and complex creature, there are as many Voids in the Kirby multiverse as the number of dimensions. Inspired by Prima Matter in Alchemy, these Voids are the ancestors of all kinds of potentialities, like "Dream, Dark, Soul, Heart", holding a developmental relation with those substances and no other having came before them. When their lives come to an end, they can slowly construct themselves from nothing in a vessel while flying around a galaxy, reincarnating with a different morality depending on the energy gathered for their vessel in the process; basically, positive energy makes them good and negative energy makes them evil. Many of their mysteries were recorded by the ancients, who studied this Voids in the long past and keep on doing it presently.
Long ago in Kirby's universe, one evil reincarnation of Void was fought by four warriors who used Heart Spears to seal him, having succeeded to end his life and prevented the process of his regeneration from operating.
A madman named Hyness saw Void as God, having formed a magical cult to worship him. Eventually around the present, Hyness broke the seal and revived that Void using only negative energy, aiming to have him destroy everything, with him reincarnating as Void Termina. Void Termina was stopped & killed by Kirby & other Star Allies. It's hoped that, in his next existence, that Void in Kirby's universe may be reborn as friend and an ally of the stars.
The non-canon Void Termina shown in as the final boss of The Ultimate Choice is probably another version of him from an alternative reality. A similar case happens with "Void Termina, True Destroyer of Worlds"/Void, who is the strongest version of him, and presumably the version that the ancients got inspired by to write about him and his alternative selfs across the multiverse.
Powers and Stats
Tier: 2-C | 2-C | 2-C
Keys: Void Termina | Soul Melter Void Termina/Void Soul | True Destroyer of Worlds/Void
Name: Void Termina (Name of the current reincarnation of Void), Void (Refers to any of his reincarnations or the time in which he is collecting energy, dead. Thus, "Void Termina" can be called "Void", but not the other way around) | Void Termina, Void, Void Soul (In his Final Core form. Presumably a special name for that boss phase that indicates what it is, rather than an actual, formal name) | "Void Termina, True Destroyer of Worlds", Void (In his Final Core form. As before, he presumably didn't drop the name "Void Termina", even if he is genuinely called Void)
Origin: Kirby Star Allies
Gender: Male
Age: Several minutes as Void Termina, hundreds of millions of years as Void (Void Termina was recently reborn as a reincarnation of Void. Void has existed for "a long, long time" without being able to feel, wish or think due to not having been alive. Former reincarnations/"ancestors" go as far back as to being the originator of types of matter categorized as "Dream, Dark, Soul, Heart", "Chaos and Potential", implying his oldest reincarnation to have been the first living being to exist, from which future generations would trace back those types of matter[1]. Nonetheless, it's not proven that he has memories of his former lives or the time in which he is dead & his vessel/Void is collecting energy, regardless of the individuality being portrayed as the same. Born reincarnations might keep vague feelings of their former lives as Void though)
Classification: Destruction God (破神. Localized as "Destroyer of Worlds", "Deity of Destruction", "Dark Lord", "Dark Lord of Despair" or "Dark Lord of Destruction". Believed to be a god by Hyness[2][3] and is seen as one by the Jambastion cult, but it's not clear whether he is a god or not, and narration has called out that something like this is no God regardless of Hyness calling him that, if other texts do follow this idea) | As before, Soul Chaos (魂沌. Localized as "Essence of Chaos". Only in his Final Core form) | As before, True Destroyer God (真 破神. Localized as "True Destroyer of Worlds")
Powers and Abilities:
All previous abilities to a greater extent, Non-Physical Interaction (Naturally as a soul/in his Final Core form, with his Devil and Angel forms being created by it), Large Size (Type 0 in Angel form, which is larger than his Devil form, which is almost 4 meters tall), Self-Sustenance (Type 3 while regenerating from nothing), Magic, Longevity, Immortality (Types 3 and 4), Regeneration (Mid-High in combat, Mid-Godly over time while reincarnating; As a Dark Matter-like being and their ancestor with superior power and scale on his abilities, he should have their regeneration. Keeps on being born after dying by wandering the galaxy, gathering energy and reviving good or evil; He "wanders the galaxy" while dead & at worst while being nothing to speak of, this being before he was able to feel, wish or think, and before he got his newly born soul, which he respectively was able to do and had because he was revived. Enough energy gathered will grow a Jamba Heart, initially from nothing, and when it is complete, it can turn into a newly born Void. Void Termina's soul exploded as a supernova that Kirby and co. had to avoid, yet it is still known that he will be born again in the future. Later in Heroes in Another Dimesnsion it's proven that at some point darkness had separated from Void Termina to become a Jamba Heart, though the darkness was concentrated on affecting Hyness rather making a new Void be born), Reincarnation (With infinite possibilities within him, he can be born again after dying, being good or evil on his new life depending on the energy gathered when dead), Corruption, Empathic Manipulation, Morality Manipulation (It should be noted that now his Corruption needs to be manually activated through omnidirectional shockwaves), Portal Creation (Created a portal to a different dimension that remains behind the Divine Terminus and appears to be bigger than it), Size Manipulation, Energy Projection and Manipulation, Shockwave Creation, Creation, Weapon Creation (Can generate swords, spears, axes, bows and arrows. Can generate a giant crown that resembles the Master Crown), Power Mimicry (Stated that "since he resembles those who enter his body, he also controls the attributes of the Three Demon Generals"/Three Mage-Sisters; With the latter trapped inside his body, he gained their main powers, Fire Manipulation, Electricity Manipulation & Ice Manipulation), minor Transmutation (Changes the forms of the swords he makes depending on what elemental powers he gives them), Fire Manipulation, Electricity Manipulation, Ice Manipulation, Weapon Mastery, Darkness Manipulation, Can trap beings inside his body, Body Control (Can fight beings inside his body and only needs his core to do so. In his Final Core form, his true form, he can modify his body offensively and quickly bounce on the floor, walls and ceiling to try and smash targets), Homing Attack, Danmaku, Air Manipulation, Shapeshifting (Stated that he resembles those who enter his body[4]; Due to being influenced by Kirby being first seen there and the dark hearts Hyness collected, he resembles Kirby's face and various other faces fitting to the power of darkness used to revive/recreate him. He changes his face in his Final Core form at will. Hyness wanted to be the first to meet & influence Void Termina's true form, instead of Kirby as it turned out), Incorporeality (As a soul in his Final Core phase), Duplication (Can create some small copies of himself that will create vacuum vortexes to suck in enemies. Can split into four equal copies of himself), Water Manipulation, Durability Negation with some attacks (Can get pass guards and forcefields), Resistance to Empathic Manipulation & Morality Manipulation (The only boss who reacts to the effects of the Star Allies's Friend Hearts, getting slightly harmed by them. The Star Allies cannot become friends with the Void born this time, they can't understand each other even if they keep on throwing hearts at him, and their Friend Hearts even inherited an anti-Void power that is painful to Void Termina [The Friend Hearts don't cause any harm to all other beings])
All previous abilities to a greater extent, Light Manipulation (Illuminates the background inside his body from black to white, red, yellow and blue), Attack Reflection (Able to create mirror-like structures to reflect his own energy beams)
Attack Potency: Low Multiverse level (Much more powerful than Magolor's second form with the Master Crown. Gave Kirby his greatest battle yet. Most Jamba Heart pieces, the Three Mage-Sisters and Hyness merged into a singular, complete Jamba Heart that turned into Void Termina; The complete Jamba Heart was previously conformed of several dozens or even hundreds of scattered Jamba Heart pieces, power which should have been replicated as the complete Jamba Heart was reassembled, and each Jamba Heart piece should sum its power upon assembling to the rest of the pieces. Can make an energy construct of what is presumably [See his Notable Attacks/Techniques below] his own giant version of a Master Crown, using it for a few attacks before making it disappear. Required to be fought by Kirby & three Star Allies to be defeated, leaving the former unconscious for an unknown amount of time after their fight. In game design, his first form was stated to have a theme of "an immense power that cannot be matched solely by Copying Abilities", implying that Kirby alone wouldn't match his power [See note below]), can negate durability in some ways | Low Multiverse level (More powerful than his previous incarnation. Can make a solid replica of what is presumably a giant Master Crown, using it for a few attacks before making it disappear), can negate durability in some ways | Low Multiverse level (More powerful than his previous incarnation. More powerful than Corrupt Hyness, the Retaliators Three Mage-Sisters and Morpho Knight EX. Can create what are presumably four giant Master Crowns, use them in combat for a few attacks, and make them disappear), can negate durability in some ways
Speed: Massively FTL+ (Kept up with the Star Allies Sparkler, an improved version of the Warp Star. Is composed of most of, and should be at least equal to, the Jamba Heart pieces. Kept up with Kirby & the Star Allies in combat)
Lifting Strength: Multi-Stellar (His First Core and Final Core forms can survive slightly harmed by Marx and Magolor's Black Holes, which can affect Kirby, Meta Knight, King Dedede and Bandana Waddle Dee, who can withstand outrunning or outflying near a black hole that quickly rolled the space of the setting shown, including the stars in its background, and could survive getting sucked by it)
Striking Strength: Low Multiverse level | Low Multiverse level (Stronger than before) | Low Multiverse level (Stronger than before)
Durability: Low Multiverse level (Took hits from the Star Allies Sparkler used by Kirby & three Star Allies in his Devil and Angel forms, hits from Kirby & three Star Allies in his First Core and Final Core forms, and was then slowly overpowered by an energy beam from Kirby bigger than normal and a special attack where Kirby created projections of all of the Star Allies to launch at Void Termina, him blowing up by the end of it but being insistent in putting on a fight seconds before it), Regeneration makes him difficult to kill | Low Multiverse level, Regeneration makes him difficult to kill | Low Multiverse level, Regeneration makes him difficult to kill
Stamina: Superhuman (Comparable to Kirby)
Range: Extended Melee Range physically in Demon and Angel forms, Intergalactic with his death explosion
Standard Equipment: None notable, can create several weapons
Intelligence: Unknown. Presumably low to an unknown degree as he has been said to just "begin to think" later in his fight. Despite this, he possesses the skills to battle many beings at once
Weaknesses: His soul takes damage from the Friend Hearts
Note: See here explanations of common misconceptions about the character.
Notable Attacks/Techniques
- Destructive Beating Fist (破殴拳): Punches the ground to attack, making three shockwaves that chase a target. In Soul Melter, there are five shockwaves instead.
- Destructive Step Attack (破踏襲): Jumps, upon landing it creates a circular shockwave that expands from where he is. He can do this many times in a row.
- Sizzle of Solitude, Blizzard of Solitude, Zap of Solitude (孤独のメラーガ、孤独のブリザ、孤独のバリッカ): Turn his arms into swords, the "grip"/"hilt" of which looking like Master Crowns, but no relation was stated. He then gives the swords one of three elemental powers; fire, ice or electricity. It's stated that "since he resembles those who enter his body, he also controls the attributes of the Three Demon Generals"/Three Mage-Sisters; The latter are masters of each of those elements, had their energy sacrificed to Void Termina to help him revive, and are trapped inside his body, meaning that he gained those attributes from them. When they get tossed out of his body, Void doesn't use those powers anymore, which may imply he lost them. Although the latter 2 versions of Void Termina doesn't need the Mage-Sisters to use those powers.
- Destructive Twin Slash (破双斬)
- Sword Uppercut
- Downwards Slash
- Horizontal Slash
- Cross Slash
- Cross Slash Uppercut
- Soliloquy (ヒトリゴト): A part of his cocoon tears open, and what appear to be letters of an unknown language come out of it, this are used as projectiles.
- Red Tears (アカイナミダ): A red liquid comes from above every time Void Termina receives damage, harming targets on contact.
This is said to be a divine form.
- Fallen Heaven (堕天): Flys below to charge on a target.
- Rainbow Bow (虹の弓): Creates a bow and shoots an arrow with the attribute of fire or ice.
- Spear of Love (愛の槍): Creates many spears and rains them down on his target. As Zan Partizanne had her energy sacrificed to help Void Termina revive, and her main weapon is a spear she's able to create/summon, he likely got the ability to create spears from her.
- Fury Axe (憤怒の斧): Creates an axe, which he telekinetically carries in his tail, and then he proceeds to slam it down a few times, each time creating a circular shockwave that expands from where the axe landed.
- Crown of Great Evil and Obsession (巨悪と執念の冠): Creates a body of energy that looks like a giant Master Crown, and uses it to shoot diverse energy beams. In the Soul Melter version, he creates what looks like a (solid) giant Master Crown to do the same. In the True Destroyer of Worlds version, he creates four of them to do the same. Aside from being visually the same, the name of the attack seems to be a reference to the Master Crown being related with hatred (Evil) and obsession. Still, while likely, it's not objectively known if this are real Master Crowns.
- Circle of Friends (トモダチノワ): Void Termina shoots omnidirectional waves (the free spaces in them are most likely due to Game Mechanics). The targets hit by them will be both harmed and turned into allies/friends of Void Termina, meaning that the victims will now attack their own previous allies. It has also been portrayed as the victims' souls falling under his control, but this is a mistranslation[5]. This is Void Termina's starting more in his Final Core form during his canon fight and as Void Soul. As Void, he does not use the attack, potentially due to knowing it's ineffective against Star Allies due to their Friend Hearts, but it's not clear if he knows anything the other Voids know.
- Pleasant Dream (タノシイユメ): Shoots many small balls of energy everywhere in a complex pattern.
- Full-Faced Laughing Expression (マンメンノエガオ): While laughing, he grows needles in his body to harm targets.
- Sprint (カケッコ): Bounces around the battlefront with higher agility than normal, aiming to ultimately hit targets or reach them with the shockwave created when he collides with the floor.
- Great Song (オオキナウタ): Shoots energy beams or manipulates balls of energy to go or stay into a direction so that they themselves may shoot energy beams.
- Bon Appetit/Itadakimasu (イタダキマス): Creates three mini versions of himself that circulate around him while sucking in their surroundings in a black hole-like matter (This move doesn't resemble a real black hole, unlike others in the Kirby series). If a target gets sucked by a mini Void this one will chew it for a while.
Explanations
The following information was given about the accumulation of power the Jamba Heart pieces give when merging back:
- The energy of the Dark Hearts (Jamba Heart pieces) is "gathered in" Void Termina. His body is set up to be "the embodiment of the power of the heart of darkness condensed in a vessel", the Jamba Heart being the vessel.
- When a piece of the Jamba Heart goes inside the incomplete Jamba Heart, it should add up both of their powers together similar to how Jamba Heart pieces have gone inside victims to bestow their power on top of the victims' own.
- The pieces are portrayed as being assembled and having their energy collected. The Jamba Heart pieces are portrayed as "the power of darkness", and Hyness tried to gather all that power of darkness into the (complete) Jamba Heart. Stated that the Jamba Heart "contains a vast amount of evil energy", which should be that power of darkness.
Therefore, the fusion they do together doesn't mean that Void Termina is simply more powerful than one Jamba Heart piece to an unknown degree, but that a sum of the power of all Jamba Heart pieces together is Void Termina's power, or something closer to the latter than the former.

- ↑ As long as other beings don't exist unrelated to "Dream, Dark, Soul, Heart", "Chaos and Potential", in such case the first Void wouldn't be their originator. However, that would be unlikely given how all-encompassing those types of matter appear to be, nor is it suggested.
