A reason as to why Clementine has no true personality/has fluid/unstable personality, and also why reality cannot be truly 'destroyed'.

Say, you have a character that can destroy the world. Every single dimension and plane to have ever existed. Something that destroys reality and renders everything void. A powerful omnicidal maniac that will destroy everything, including creation, and then kill themselves.

But here, I would like to argue that Clementine can exist even through world destruction.

How? Well, it’s simple. First of all, one does not simply ‘destroy creation.’ It’s a paradox in itself. By destroying something, you are creating destruction. You are doing the action, thus creation/doing it unto something else. Second of all, one does not simply destroy reality. Nothingness is a part of reality. The void is a part of reality. Destruction is part of reality. Everything is a part of reality. I’ll assume that if you destroy all planes of reality and dimensions, the world will be rendered to void, or some sort of emptiness/abyss that proves the nothingness that was once occupied by something. But that nothingness is something. And that nothingness is a part of reality. So in truth, you did not destroy reality at all.

As a concept, an idea, Clementine will exist/be reborn as long as reality exists. It doesn’t matter which form she takes- male, female, no gender, cold and distant, warm and cheery, no personality at all, everything and nothing at once. She will come back as a concept. And that, is her version of ‘immortality.’ Even if you delete her powers, even if you kill her, even if you try to destroy reality itself, even if you throw her into a lower dimension, even if you delete her, even if you delete the very concept of her. She will be recreated. With or without her memory intact, as memory is just a by-product of time. With wants and desires or without, as to do so is mortal. Her powers are just a façade for her ‘immortality’. And it’s not necessarily a form of immortality, either. You can’t delete it. As long as you remember her, she will come back. As long as reality knows that an entity called ‘Clementine’ once existed, then she will be back.

Though you can warp reality, tear through it, rip it apart, distort it, make it fall apart and shatter into a million pieces you can never truly destroy it completely. Your powers are based upon reality. Your actions are based upon reality. You are based upon reality. Even if you create another world, it will still be connected to reality. You can also understand reality as a set of rules. You can change it, rewrite the words, redefine the words, delete them, make new rules, and much more. But a concept is the foundation of those rules, the very words that you use to make the rules of reality. Even if you use a completely new language and redefine every single word, it will still be reality. You can even change the word ‘reality’ to something else. The world will still mean ‘reality.’

And this, is my take, on Clementine’s immortality.
