I’m… a Point-And-Click Game.

I don’t hate this.

These unnamed, unseen forces are pulling the strings. They can be good, evil, or ambiguous.

This trope can be thought of as a character similar to the Big Bad. This entry refers to the thing that is represented by a character, rather than the character itself. Not all Big Bads are mysterious enough to be Powers That Be, and not all Powers That Be are threatening enough to be Big Bads.

Even good Powers That Be tend to rub the heroes the wrong way, as they tend to be too distant to understand the heroes’ concerns and protectorate.

One variety of the Powers That Be is the Ancient Conspiracy, another is The Omniscient Council of Vagueness. Another one is God himself. If the powers are warring with each other, it could be Heaven And Hell. Contrast Pals With Jesus, where the relationship is entirely personal and personable. See also Physical God.

Sometimes, this term is used by fans to refer to network executives or other forces behind a work’s fate.

Why do I think of myself as Book of Eli now.
