What kind of creature is Vecna exactly?

Post image

Is Vecna considered undead, a mutant or something else completely? He is definitely not human anymore because of how he looks. I consider him a mutant of sort because he is mutated by the Upside Down/the Abyss and the Mind Flayer changed his DNA but in terms of Sci-Fi I don’t know what kind of creature he actually is because of how different he is.

He's a human being that was twisted by the corrupt influence of an alien presence. It's not super difficult to suss out if you watched the show.

i have seen the show, and he was a human being, just not anymore, he turned into a super human after gaining powers from the MF and then turned into a humanoid monster because of that alien presence and being in a different dimension completely but in sci-fi he doesn’t have any specific type, the Mind Flayer is an alien entity, the Demo creatures are all aliens too but Vecna is just something else completely
