Fall. You are alone, child. There is only darkness for you, and only death for your people. These Ancients are just the beginning. I will command a great and terrible army, and we will sail to a billion worlds. We will sail until every light has been extinguished. You are strong, child. But I am beyond strength. I am the End. And I have come for you, Finn.

The Lich is the main antagonist of the animated series Adventure Time with Finn & Jake and arch nemesis of Finn the Human.

The Lich wears a crown. He has a pair of horns, one of which has broken off. However, before being struck down by the legendary Billy, both of his horns were intact, so it is possible that it got broken off as a result of that encounter. The Lich also dresses in a large, loose robe with multiple layers and a large cape that is severely torn at its end.

Physically, the Lich is also remarkably large. In the flashback in "His Hero", the Lich is shown to rival Billy in size. The arms of the Lich are bare-bones with little to no tissue left, and his skeletal hands burn with an eerie fire when casting spells. His face is defined by horrific green lights as pupils peering out of his empty eye sockets, and pale undead skin is pulled tight against his nose-less skull. His skin is frayed away from his lips revealing a wicked and perpetual grin.

In "Escape from the Citadel", the Lich breaks out of the crystal in an explosion, revealing a completely skeletal form, with a spiked vertebral column and shoulders, several bone fractures, and a small metal plate attached to its ribcage.

The Lich is a cosmic entity who existed for billions of years before the nothingness that did not exist before the beginning of the universe. Eventually, The Lich transferred his essence to a green Catalyst Comet that struck the earth in the late cretaceous period, wiping out the dinosaurs. The Lich's essence was later released onto the universe when humans created and dropped the atomic bombs over The Lich's well of power during the great mushroom war.

The Lich claims to be "An Unceasing Wheel. The Last Scholar of GOLB" with only one goal: The Complete Destruction of All Life. To that end The Lich is immortal and commands great and terrible magical powers. His very presence causes most organic life forms to root, decay, or die instantly and he is able of telepathically dominating most individuals who do not equip headwear designed to negate telepathic attacks. The Lich has also displayed high amounts of resistance to the four primal elements: Fire, Ice, Candy, and Slime being unable to be transmuted by them.

The Lich only has a select few weaknesses, Billy's Gauntlet of the Hero, The Power of Love "Or liking someone a lot", immensely powerful healing or life based magic, and GOLB.
