God was first introduced as Chuck in Season 4 as the writer of the Supernatural book series. While this can be written off as someone grappling for answers no matter how far-fetched, he went on to detail the kind of God he is. There is also the fact that Chuck knew Sam and Dean before he met them and was writing about current and upcoming events in their lives with exquisite details.
Kevin Tran, the first real prophet on Supernatural, never showed the capability to prophesy or to see current events taking place.
Even the visions Donatello has about Amara, Jack and Asmodeus are in only bits and pieces. The theory that whenever a prophet is in danger an archangel appears to protect them only comes true in the case of Chuck. But in the case of Kevin Tran, the angels were active, but no one comes to rescue him when Crowley kidnaps him after Dean and Cas get stuck in Purgatory. He tells the Winchesters that he goes through some kind of a "process" when he has visions -- a severe headache occurs, and since aspirin is useless for him, he drinks until he passes out.
While unconscious, he says he sees and interprets prophecy. As Chuck Shurley, God took on the role of a nebbish and neurotic writer. He would carry on many of Chuck's characteristics as he traveled the universe, but beneath the Chuck veneer remained the same God that flooded the earth and had Sodom and Gomorrah destroyed, a God that created as much as he punished.
Metatron having described his memoirs as "angry with a side of bitter. Both Amara and Lucifer describe him as narcissistic. Chuck took an interest in Sam and Dean Winchester , claiming out of all the Sam's and Dean's in all the multiverse , they were his "favorite show.
Upon Dean Winchester refusing to kill Jack, going against Chuck's script, Chuck revealed his true nature to the Winchesters for the first time, killing Jack himself and unlocking all the gates of Hell , including Lucifer's Cage.
Sam and Dean find a series of books written about them, and through the publisher track down the author Carver Edlund -- the pen name of writer Chuck Shurley. He reveals the stories come to him in dreams, and that he's continued writing even after the books stopped being published.
Chuck reveals his latest dream is of Sam and Lilith having "a night of fiery demonic passion. Later Dean accuses Chuck of withholding information and attacks him, but is stopped by Castiel who reveals Chuck is a prophet of the Lord, who is protected by an archangel. Later Castiel gives Dean information on how to stop Lilith, and by putting Chuck in the same room with Lilith, a scenario that Chuck had not predicted, the archangel threatens to appear and Lilith flees.
Dean and Castiel appear at Chuck's place, just as he is ordering some hookers to see out the end of the world. He tells them where Sam and Lilith are, but says they are not "in the story. The archangel, and other angels , appear in pursuit of Castiel and Dean, and Castiel stays with Chuck to let Dean try and stop Sam.
Media Tie-in: On the computer screen before Castiel and Dean show up, there is an e-mail address for Chuck: carveredlund gmail. This address seems to be valid and active, although there has been no response, automated or otherwise, to date.
Sam and Dean arrive in Kripke's Hollow to find Chuck's house more chaotic than usual and also quite bloody. They ask if it's true that Castiel is dead. Chuck tells them, that Castiel practically exploded one of Castiel's molars seems to have lodged in Chuck's hair. Zachariah and some of his "bodyguards" show up, and after a brief conversation in which they try to convince Dean that he should work with the angels again, because they want the same thing, namely Lucifer gone, Dean banishes them with the angel banishing sigil.
Later, Chuck messages Supernatural fan Becky Rosen , interrupting her work on her Wincest fan fiction, asking her to pass along a message to Sam and Dean. The message reveals that the angels are looking for Michael 's Sword later to be revealed to be Dean, with the vision having been apparently planted by Zachariah , and that it is to be found "in a castle, on a hill made of 42 dogs" which turns out to be John's Lock-up.
In , Lucifer 's minions re-released the Croatoan demon virus - in this post-apocalyptic world, most humans have been reduced to murderous zombies.
Chuck is at Camp Chitaqua with Future! Dean , Future! Castiel and other survivors. Chuck is in charge of supplies. Toilet paper, he informs Dean, is "like gold. God would take to hiding behind whatever religion was the most popular at the time and leaving these gods to wander the world taking whatever scraps they could find until they became forgotten or killed by humans. Over time, most of these gods have forgotten their true origins, many of them believing themselves to be superior compared to other gods in opposing religions.
The angel Joshua was the only known angel to have had conversations with Him prior to God revealing Himself as Chuck Shurley to Metatron and the Winchesters.
Even after revealing Himself, God still preferred to be called "Chuck" as being called "God" and treated with praise makes Him "deeply uncomfortable. Both Uriel and Raphael lost faith in their maker, stating that God must be dead, [4] [5] although most angels believed that He still existed.
Chuck tells the Winchesters that He only interferes directly when things get apocalyptic on Earth, to the point where the main threat rivals His power. He offers His aid to the Winchesters as the prophet " Chuck Shurley " to prevent the Apocalypse from coming to pass, as well as to have a front row seat to the Apocalypse. Later, as the Darkness threatened to destroy the universe, realizing He could not defeat her on His own, He initially planned to sacrifice Himself to be locked away, until Metatron convinced Him to help the Winchesters stop His sister.
However, Amara managed to mortally wound Chuck, causing a disruption in the Cosmic Balance. Chuck and Amara's reconciliation was short-lived, however, as the two soon agreed to take some time apart due to Amara having grown tired of her brother's failure to change. God reappears after Castiel prays to Him to help them control Jack after he loses his soul and is unable to control his destructive powers. In retaliation, God unleashes all of the souls of Hell upon the world, proclaiming "Welcome to The End.
Despite the Winchesters and Castiel managing to seal Hell again, [10] God was undeterred and began plotting their demise, intending to make one brother kill the other. Believing God, Sam foils the attempt to trap Him, enabling God to heal His wound and leave the Earth, though it was believed that He would return eventually. God is eventually stripped of His powers by Jack who becomes the new God, leaving Chuck powerless and mortal to live out a human life and die forgotten.
As one of the two earliest known beings in creation, along with His sister the Darkness , God is an nigh-omniscient and nigh-omnipotent being capable of feats such as healing , resurrection , teleportation His only known weaknesses are His sister the Darkness, who is the only being in existence with the capability to mortally wound God. If God were to die, then there would be a shift in the Cosmic Balance which would lead to the end of all existence.
It is also known that with strong enough warding , it is possible to hide oneself from even God, as evidenced by His and Amara 's use of wards to stay hidden from each other; as well as Chuck being unable to sense a nearly-human Gabriel who was using a potent cloaking spell made by the shaman Sergei , while he was hiding in Monte Carlo and being held prisoner by Asmodeus. If God is significantly weakened, what was done to the Darkness to lock her away could also be done to Chuck. According to Ketch , even everything that the British Men of Letters had on God was purely theoretical, with nothing definite regarding a weapon or spell that can potentially injure or kill Him.
Metatron had described his memoirs as "angry with a side of bitter," and while writing His memoirs, Chuck would show His more wrathful side to Metatron. Both Amara and Lucifer describe Him as narcissistic. While God is one of the most powerful beings in existence, He is not invulnerable.
Dean is healed by Roy Le Grange , who believes God is healing through him, when in fact his powers are actually connected to a reaper his wife is manipulating. When Dean asks why he was saved, Roy tells him he was guided by the Lord because he saw in Dean's heart that he was "A young man with an important purpose.
A job to do. When people claim that an angel told them to kill, Sam reveals that he believes in God and that he prays. A fatalist Dean says: "There's no higher power, there's no God. There's just chaos and violence, random unpredictable evil, that comes outta nowhere, rips you to shreds. Castiel reveals that he raised Dean from Hell because "God commanded it.
As the 66 seals are broken, Zachariah reveals that the angels plan to allow the Apocalypse to begin. When Dean asks where God is, Zachariah replies "God has left the building. After Lucifer is freed, Castiel states that aside from Michael , God is the only one strong enough to defeat Lucifer and end the Apocalypse , and so he begins a quest to find Him. Castiel thinks that while God has been absent, it was He who resurrected him and saved the boys from Lucifer.
He reveals that Dean's amulet is very powerful and that it "burns hot in God's presence," and so borrows it from Dean to help in his quest. Raphael claims that God is dead, as this is the only explanation for the horrible things have happened on Earth over the last hundred years and God's continuing silence.
Dean encourages Castiel, who still believes that God's not dead, to continue his search. Joshua confirms that God is on Earth, but also tells them that He no longer cares about the Apocalypse , thinking it isn't His problem. Joshua says he thinks God talks to him because He can "sympathize gardener to gardener.
Chuck Shurley begins writing his final book, titled "Swan Song", with an explanation of the Impala 's history and significance. He is later called by Dean for the location of Lucifer and Michael 's final battle, which he readily gives. Chuck finally appears dressed in white, musing on the difficulty of getting endings right. He then disappears, leading viewers to believe he may, in fact, be God.
God also resurrects Castiel a second time and grants him greater powers. Later, Castiel wonders when talking to Dean if perhaps God had actually helped them more than they realize. Atropos makes an assumption that God Himself decides a person's death and then passes the details on to the Fates. Castiel prays to God revealing what he has done in order to defeat Raphael and demands a sign that he is on the right path.
It is revealed that God apparently resurrected Castiel for a third time with all of his powers intact but no memory despite his briefly declaring himself God. Metatron reveals that before God left Heaven , He enlisted Metatron, a secretarial angel , to take down instructions on His various creations.
When God left, the archangels despaired and then decided to take over the universe themselves, a plan Naomi seemed to be following since their demise. God also may have granted Metatron special powers as His scribe because Metatron is able to erase angel wards due to his elevated status. After being transported to BG's Canteen , Metatron quickly realizes that the bar is a construct created by God. When he finds Chuck Shurley sitting at a booth, he believes he is being punished by God by having to spend eternity in a "crappy bar with a hack writer," and proceeds to go in on Chuck's writing.
Chuck eventually reveals to Metatron that He is, in fact, God. As Metatron begins groveling on his knees, Chuck tells him to stop as the kneeling and being called "God" make Him uncomfortable, telling Metatron to call Him Chuck. Chuck reveals that He started a blog about cats, signed up for Snapchat, started a new series of books titled Revolution though He doesn't think they will go anywhere as well as having traveled and dated a few people.
He also explains how He was able to deactivate Dean's amulet so they wouldn't suspect Him of being God during the Apocalypse , and He reactivates it before putting it away.
Chuck reveals that He wanted to finish His autobiography and needs Metatron's help to do it, which he accepts. After reading it, Metatron points out that it's missing a few things such as details and balance.
He tells him to write for an audience of one and reveal who He really is. Chuck explains that nature was the closest thing that was as good as or better than Himself or His sister, since it knows that it's sometimes better to start from scratch. Metatron discovers that Chuck was going to let Amara destroy the universe, and tells Him off about how he was never a coward when he tried to play God. Chuck reveals that He is done watching humanity's failures and wants to let Amara win.
As Chuck begins to finish the last few pages of His autobiography, Metatron tells Him that He is wrong about humanity because He knows that they are better than He is and understands what they are capable of in both positive and negative ways. Chuck, touched and clearly guilty Himself for losing faith in humanity, decides to help Sam and Dean deal with the Darkness after finishing His book.
He reverses the effects of the rabid infection in Hope Springs, Idaho. He even sends Dean's amulet into Sam's jacket pocket to allow them to find Him.
After sending Kevin's soul to Heaven , Sam talks about how he was praying to Him, but was unaware if He was actually listening. Dean tells Him about how humanity had been suffering for thousands of years while God did nothing. Chuck tells him that He has been helping them for ages and decided that in order to allow humanity to thrive, that He needed to take a step back and let them find their way.
He also believes that despite everything, things have gotten better from His point of view. God tells them that the only reason He came to help them was because the Darkness was a force beyond human comprehension, and He tells them about how awful it was to always do what Amara wanted. When Sam tells Him that they might need Lucifer 's help, God tells them that He doesn't trust him since he could have formed an alliance with Amara.
He is later seen watching a curling tournament on Dean's computer while eating Chinese food when Sam and Dean come back from Lewis, Oklahoma, with the latest prophet , Professor Donatello Redfield. After meeting up with Metatron, he tells them that Chuck is going to give Himself up to Amara and even shows them His autobiography which is in the form of a suicide note. Chuck is seen watching kids playing in a sandbox when Dean comes over to confront Him about surrendering to Amara.
Chuck tells him that He will become imprisoned and let Amara do what she wants with Him in exchange for allowing the universe to continue to thrive. Chuck also tells Dean that if she tries to destroy everything, then His chosen, like Sam and Dean, will step up and reveals that He saved Sam and Dean in 5. Lucifer sees God for the first time in millennia and remarks that He changed, God says the same thing and instantly heals the wounds he had to endure from Amara's torture.
God tells Lucifer about how He healed him and to be reasonable, but Lucifer doesn't want to hear it.
