The Cosmic Plot Device is exactly what it sounds like – a device of enormous and largely undefined cosmic power that net.villains fight over a lot.

History
The origins of the Cosmic Plot Device are shrouded in mystery. In the Early Middle Ages, a Germanic baron named Krieger acquired the Device and founded The Cult of the Cosmic Plot Device. Thanks to being less bloody than most cults of the era, the Cult of the Device gained an almost mainstream following, and was able to guard the Device until 1937, when the Nazis stole it.
However, it vanished before Hitler got his hands on it, and the Cult searched the world for decades without finding it. In the late '80s, a Dr. Plot discovered the Device lying in the center of an English crop circle. Not knowing its history, he declared it to be undeniable evidence of extra-terrestrial intelligence and had it shipped to Net.ropolis for further study.
The Device ended up on display at the Net.ional Museum of History, where it was promptly stolen by multiple net.villains. First, General Jarrek took it, intending to open the pan-reality nexus within LNHQ and create a beachhead thru which the Dorfian Empire could conquer the Loonivearth. Captain LNH and a ragtag team of net.heroes stopped him at great cost. Then, after it was returned to the Museum, Lagneto stole it, using its power to capture Asteroid L and set it in orbit around the Loonivearth.
In turn, Y-Plex Burp stole it from him,
and in turn, Table and his Brotherhood of Net.Villains stole it from him. (And if this wasn't confusing enough, LNH Forever has its unnamed protagonist stealing it in the first place and giving it to Burp.)
Doctor Killfile revealed that the Cult of the Cosmic Plot Device had managed to preserve two shards of the Device. He used these to create two prototype androids, made of liquid metal and able to shapeshift into any form. One of these became Rebel Yell's Aunt Comic-Relief, <details>. To prevent these problems in the future, the other was implanted with the spirit of Obscure Trivia Lad.
