The logical extreme of the less destructive FeelingOppressedByTheirExistence, KillAllHumans, MisanthropeSupreme, and AbsoluteXenophobe. Compare PlanetEater, PlanetLooters, and HordeOfAlienLocusts, whose world-destroying is more of a side-effect of their own desire to stay alive. Fighting against this villain (or scores of them) means EvilOnlyHasToWinOnce to destroy everything. The GenericDoomsdayVillain is this without any good reason for destroying everything, not even [[ForTheEvulz sadism]]. These types often start by destroying their own particular people/clan/culture/race first, which is GenocideFromTheInside.

GenocideFromTheInside. If another villain steps in to fight the Omnicidal Maniac, expect it to be a fight of [[EvilVersusEvil Evil]] vs [[EvilVersusOblivion Oblivion]].
