Captured Super-Entity	comment	This trope covers the idea of (usually) "lesser" beings capturing an alien, a god, an angel, etc. for some typically nefarious purpose. Obviously, some form of powerful magic or advanced technology will be needed to pull this off, making it a more common plot in Fantasy or Speculative Fiction. It's also a standard "The Men in Black" plot, in which the government or other secret organization has miraculously captured a powerful entity and are extracting its knowledge and power usually through various unpleasant means. Extra MIB points if this is occurring at Area 51. If the being came with advanced technology, they've likely been reverse-engineering it for themselves. Or maybe they've secretly put said technology on the open market, claiming that they invented it. If a common modern day technology is revealed to have actually been a direct result of all this, then E.T. Gave Us Wi-Fi. Magical entities (more often than alien ones) have a habit of breaking out and slaughtering their captors. Naturally, should the entity's species find out about this, they're gonna be pissed, leading to the threat of The End of the World as We Know It. This may be justified, if said race was going to destroy us anyway. Oh, and Heaven help you if the captured entity is just a baby, and Mom comes calling. But even without outside help, in most cases the captured being probably won't be a prisoner for very long. So you are well advised to stand clear. May be caused by Supernatural Sealing. If the entity is forced to obey commands, this becomes Olympus Mons. If the entity is a Power Source, it may be Powered by a Forsaken Child. If the focus is obtaining profit from a substance generated by the entity, it's Monster Organ Trafficking. If the focus is on simple containment of the entity or its power, you wind up with Sealed Evil in a Can or Sealed Good in a Can. Compare and contrast Trapped in the Host.

Captured Super-Entity / int_136469af	comment	In Pact, the ultimate goal of every (non-evil) diabolist is to bind every demon in existence. Given the mayhem and suffering even an imp can inflict, most everyone else would rather leave the demons alone rather than risk drawing their attention, to say nothing about the carnage that can be wrought if someone strikes a bargain with a bound demon.

When it finally escaped (and made itself a robot body, calling itself "Danger"), it went on a rampage seeking revenge. (This was later eased off a little, to suggest that he didn't know Danger resented being used for training but did realize she might go berserk if freed. They've since made up and Danger is an ally of the X-Men.)

Fangathrax the World-Worm spent most of the Age of Chaos chained to crawling Chaos forts to keep the Realmgate in its gullet under their control. It broke free during a large clash with Destruction forces, but was later recaptured by the Orruks. Ignax the Solar Drake was chained by the god Griminir to serve as a living sun for a part of Aqshy, and was only freed ages later by Archaon to be bound to him as beast of war.

This gives him alchemical knowledge far beyond that of any individual human, allowing him to do such things as manipulate the weather and create nuclear fusion in the palm of his hand. However, he's fighting off all the protagonists simultaneously, and a philosopher's stone is a finite power source; as the heroes force him to expend more and more of it, it becomes increasingly difficult for him to keep God contained.

Although their method of "capturing" him essentially consists of them knowing that he'll be back to a certain location more often than not and not worrying too much that he can get out of his cell whenever it takes his fancy. They also have the Hindu god Kumbhakarna (he's dormant in a floating palace/battle station and the Foundation really only just keeps people from finding out) and some sort of deer-god that could destroy the world with ease that is kept contained with a phony ritual that the Foundation came up with to make it think they know how to contain it. They also have the Babylonian god Ashur contained by tricking him into thinking he is in the past and among fellow gods, which is possible because he is very gullible.

It ended about as well as one would expect. First, the reactor suffered a power surge which ended the Third Umbral Era and whipped out the Allagan civilization. Then at the end of the Seventh Umbral Era the Garlean Empire undertook Operation Meteor, in an attempt to use Dalamud to put an end to the Primal Summoning arts of Eorzea. When Dalamud entered the atmosphere Bahamut was released and his ensuing rampage served as the World-Wrecking Wave that reshaped the world for the transition from version 1.0 to the Realm Reborn rerelease.

Captured Super-Entity / int_49ad83ee	comment	World of Warcraft: The Blood Elves are holding a Naaru captive within Silvermoon City; this is how they have harnessed the power of the Holy Light and made their own Paladins. (They also had Paladins in Warcraft III, but that's different.) This source of power is abandoned in Patch 2.4 and replaced with the resurrected Sunwell. Intriguingly, the Naaru never seemed to care much, leading to theories that it was all a plan to "corrupt" the Blood Elves with Holy Light. With patch 2.4, it turned out that it was after all. Another example is draining the blood of the demon Magtheridon to create fel orcs, and the two backfiring attempts to use the human avatar of the Sunwell in this way. Demon Hunters have a miniature version of this happening, in that they seal a demon inside themselves to empower them. The warlocks in the Shadow Labyrinth seem to be trying this trope, though they also seem to be pretty bad at actually controlling their major summons.

Before his defeat, he'd captured Death the Kid, an Eldritch Abomination, Excalibur, and even said he'd wanted to collect Lord Death and Asura also. As most of the 'captives' were capable of leaving whenever they felt like it, it was not as effective a prison as Noah had assumed.

Often, The Men in Black will hold aliens or various Monsters of the Week captive, but sometimes, if Mulder and Scully manage to get them, they end up in mental institutions or hospitals. Tooms, the mutant Serial Killer in "Squeeze", is institutionalized. The episode ends as Tooms is sitting on his bed staring at the small opening in the door, hinting that he plans to escape through it via his Rubber Man powers. However, the authorities refuse to acknowledge that he's supernatural, and he's released in the sequel episode "Tooms". In "Eve", the government imprisons various women called Eve, all of whom are female Super Soldiers created in a top-secret project who show psychotic and murderous tendencies. "Fire" ends with its pyrokinetic villain being hospitalized and guarded. He is bound because he's extremely dangerous. He is confined to a hyperbaric chamber until he can be tried on murder charges. In "Soft Light", Banton's power to suck people into his shadow is due to a Freak Lab Accident. In the end, Banton is held in a government's science center with sensors attached to his head and flashing lights casting shadows on a photoelectric panel. He visibly suffers. In "Talitha Cumi", the healer Jeremiah Smith is captured, but Mulder helps him to break free because he wants him to heal his mother.

He's a Half-Human Hybrid created by Big Bad Anubis, with all of his 'father''s memories, to the point that it's 95% of the way to having the Evil Overlord himself on your base. What Could Possibly Go Wrong?note Daniel Jackson, the character who normally wants to find a peaceful solution to any problem, immediately upon discovering what Khalek is, says "kill him." Having more in-depth knowledge of Anubis than anyone else in the universe, Daniel knows exactly what could go wrong. The SGC at first attempts to study him, and for security restrains him in a chair over an electrified floor in an isolated room with the only exit being through a Tok'ra one-way forcefield, on a dopamine inhibitor to restrain his powers with it set up to dump a massive dose into his system if he tries anything funny. It doesn't work. He telekinetically pinches the dopamine tube by effectively melting it with his mind, and then he yanks the guards through the forcefield onto the electrified floor. The electrified floor is shut down from outside by Colonel Mitchell to make it safe to step in the doorway to shoot at him, but he never gets any shots off — he's just shoved into the wall. From that point on, Khalek basically just goes through the SGC to the Stargate, weaponless, telekinetically deflecting all the bullets fired at him and shoving all the guards into walls, knocking them out (or worse). In the end, he reaches the Stargate, dials home, and walks through triumphant... only to have his home's dialing defenses dial back, resulting in him stepping back into the SGC, befuddled. Seconds later, he's being shot at from two different angles and fails to block one of the two sets of bullets, resulting in his demise. There's also the water microorganisms in "Watergate". Stargate members attempt this (they usually just stick at this, and not permanently contain) with multiple super-powerful creatures and entities. More notable among others, Adria, Adria in Baal's body, Baal(s), and Daniel as a Prior.

Scorponok's severed head is working with them voluntarily to rebuild his body. Rival secret organization Skywatch uncovered Shockwave, the Dinobots, and two of Soundwave's cassettes (Laserbeak and Ravage) from Mount St. Helens in the 80s. They attempted to use them combat drones against the other Cybertronians and Machination, but the plan ultimately failed because they badly underestimated how intelligent Shockwave was and didn't realize that the Machination had infiltrated them. Shockwave was able to locate Soundwave, who deactivated the bomb Skywatch had placed in Shockwave in an attempt to keep him under their control in exchange for Shockwave freeing Soundwave from the Shapeshifter Mode Lock he'd suffered from for the last 20 years. The Dinobots, meanwhile, simply proved to be too stubborn and hard-headed to be controlled for long. The Transformers (Marvel) Megatron once got stuck in gun mode and picked up by a small time hood, who went around using him as a BFG. When he woke up, Megatron was not pleased. When the guy stood up to Megatron, though, Megatron was so impressed by the guy's moxie he let him live. In the first Transformers/G.I. Joe crossover from IDW and Devil's Due, Cobra had found and activated both the Autobots and Decepticons, which was used as the explanation for all their futuristic weaponry.

Lesser Daedra are the technically immortal inhabitants of Oblivion, the infinite Void Between the Worlds of Mundus (the mortal plane) and Aetherius (the realm of magic). The most powerful of the lesser Daedra are fully sapient while possessing greater than usual physical and/or magical abilities which qualify as "Super" compared to most mortal denizens of Tamriel. Conjuration magic allows these beings to be summoned to Mundus and temporarily bound to mortal masters. If their physical form is slain in Mundus, their spirits simply return to Oblivion to reform. Skyrim: Late in the main quest, the Dragonborn must utilize the ancient fortress of Dragonsreach to physically ensnare the dragon Odahviing. Considering dragons in this universe are divine, quasi-angelic entities capable of warping reality who may be fragments of the Top God, Akatosh, this act certainly qualifies. Can be temporarily invoked by the Dragonborn in the Dragonborn DLC, where the "Bend Will" shout renders dragons compliant enough to be ridden. It sounds awesome on paper and, while it does look cool, in practice you can only give them some orders, you're limited to magic or shouts on their back, you can't fast travel everywhere note Places like Whiterun or Solitude are separate cells from the overworld, and eventually the dragon's service to you will end.

Some villain wants to capture a Legendary PokÃ©mon with godlike powers and the protagonists have to stop them. In the games, though, you're encouraged to capture the Legendary PokÃ©mon and no one bats an eye. Of course, their power in the games tends to be significantly less godlike, due to PokÃ© Balls serving as a Power Limiter which the villains often find a way to circumvent.

It ended about as well as one would expect. First, the reactor suffered a power surge which ended the Third Umbral Era and whipped out the Allagan civilization. Then at the end of the Seventh Umbral Era the Garlean Empire undertook Operation Meteor, in an attempt to use Dalamud to put an end to the Primal Summoning arts of Eorzea. When Dalamud entered the atmosphere Bahamut was released and his ensuing rampage served as the World-Wrecking Wave that reshaped the world for the transition from version 1.0 to the Realm Reborn rerelease.

In the Kamigawa block, a feudal lord captures a newborn spirit from the Spirit World, which makes him immortal. This act also incites the entire spirit world to declare a long and bloody war on the mortal world. The worst part is, the long and bloody war with the gods of his world doesn't cause him to take the hint; he's still convinced that his immortal reign is the best for Kamigawa. Never My Fault, much? In the tie-in novel Jedit, Shauku keeps a monster imprisoned under her castle and uses the being's knowledge for herself.

Speaking of the C'tan, it's heavily implied that the Omnissiah that the Adeptus Mechanicus worships is actually the Void Dragon after the Emperor defeated and sealed it in Mars so that it could serve as the inspiration for the Machine Cult.

The Draxites, the Destroyers servants freed from its control by its removal, tell the Squirrel that it was the first time they'd ever heard the Destroyer scream in terror. The season seven finale, "The Black Heart", reveals that Friedrich von Schlitz has been using the Destroyer as a power source for the Dark Towers, an imprenetrable Magitek defense system. When the Red Panda confronts the Destroyer, he tries to convince him to leave peacefully, or at least not take his anger out on all of humanity, but the Destroyer does not see the distinction between the lesser creatures that actually captured it and the ones they share a species with. Sending it back to its dimension would simply cause the Draxites to be re-enslaved, so the Red Panda uses a magical item given to him for the confrontation to kill the Destroyer, or at least inflict the closest thing to death it's possible for the Destroyer to experience.

The act of spilling his blood upon the ground tempered his power and allowed him to recover his sanity, but bound him to the land. 99 others followed his example, each now forever bound to a "country sized" area of land surrounding where their blood was spilled. Leaving that area or attempting to enter another god's area will cause them to burst into flames.

Captured Super-Entity / int_f0b55dd	comment	Housepets!: After being magically trapped in his own temple by his sister, the Celestial Pete was for thousands of years unable to interact with any living creature outside the domain of said temple, which was located in the middle of the Saudi Arabian desert. When a human finally discovered him in the 20th century, he struck a bargain to have his entire temple relocated to somewhere more habitable. This ended up being the forest behind the suburban town that human owned, where it remained with Pete inside for decades afterwards until the animals of the woods finally ended up accidentally setting him free. Exploring the derelict temple after the fact, Sabrina discovers that the writings along the walls thought to belong to an ancient civilization were actually Pete begging anybody to come help him.
