Trazyn the Infinite creates a portal to these universes and wants to expand his museum. Trazyn can bring whatever he has to survive and if he dies he goes back to his HQ.
This is a pretty big boon for him since he can bring entire fleets (he prefers his personal ship but should have access to others, Necron or otherwise) and armies with him tucked away into tesseracts for instant deployment. He has the ability to, if he wants to f*ck up most of these settings very badly should he choose to do so, however, in character, it's very unlikely he would do that unless someone personally offends him on the level that Orikan does and would still not risk losing something he doesn't have a way to easily replace.
One thing to keep in mind is that Trazyn travels in disguise. He makes himself look like a local or he goes invisible, building his network of mindshackled servants and spies. It's entirely possible that no one will ever realize anything was off until things just disappear without a trace.

He absolutely has the run of the roost here, nothing can stop him or threaten him and he can take whatever he wants. I would imagine stuff like famous lightsabers and ships, maybe some battles, maybe even the death star (although this might be too big for him). Darth Vader could and probably would be taken since he's such an interesting part of the galaxy and the empire. Any sith or jedi artifacts and maybe some droids might be taken as curiosities to fill out his themed exhibits. He would totally try to recreate clone wars battles with stormtroopers, not noticing or caring about the difference of armor and gear.

While it's true there are a lot of omnipotent or near omnipotent beings in Star Trek, many of them don't have to be fought directly and can be reasoned with, bargined with or tricked and since 40k also has very powerful near omnipotent beings (at least two of which he's captured) I doubt he puts himself in such a situation or that he can't get out of it. He has a great deal of tricks up his rhetorical sleeves as well. Deep Space 9 itself, maybe one of the dominion war battles, a changeling, famous ships that are still around in one state or another (Starfleet museum could be in trouble.) Maybe one of the Prophet's Orbs, an Iconian Gate, a Borg Cube and some drones. Oh and at least one of the Song androids.

He'd have a great time here, probably pretending to be a Gou'ald system lord for much of it, he'd definitely get a gate or two, maybe a lovely Vancouverian scene of SG teams fighting Jaffa in the woods around a gate mid splash. Some random ships, a ZPM, gou'ald larva, random artifacts. Not really anything that could threaten him, Replicators might be annoying for a moment before he figures them out and then he's going to want some of them on display. Asgard could maybe give him a problem? Assuming they could even find a Shroud-class ship. He prefers going unnoticed, so likely he avoids them or at worst, manipulates them, offering to solve their problems in exchange for something they have that he wants or so he can get to something he wants while their backs are turned.

He's untouchable here, there's nothing in Starcraft (especially during the Great War) that threatens him in any way. However, it's very likely that he'll want Kerrigan considering what a strange entity she is. Otherwise, the usual capturing a battle here or there, some displays of various artifacts, vehicles, and soldiers. A cerebrate, dark and light templar, a battlecruiser, Khaydarin crystals of various varieties, maybe a small Terran colony or a piece of Mar Sara. I do think he'd have a hard time infiltrating the the Zerg or the Protoss since they both have some form of hive mind, but he'd probably get a psi-emitter to use (and an extra one to keep!) and use that to capture a Zerg invasion for display. He'd probably have to contend with fewer protoss examples unless he's willing to kill them to get their stuff (which he might be.) Oh, he'd want some of the random critters like Scantid or Ursadons.

Should be fine with his usual approach, unlikely anyone is even going to notice he's there. Dispite a lot of hype, the Light and Darkness really just boil down to a particularly powerful Force-like magic with some enigmatic entities swimming at the top level of that power, but most everything else operating on a scale that wouldn't be unfamiliar to Trazyn and he's not going to mess with the Traveler. Neither the Vex nor the Hive pose any particular challenge or OCP (He has a collection spanning almost everything in 40k with the notable exception of actual manifested Daemons and keeps them all restrained and controlled.) While the Vex have some time manipulation abilities, so does he and it doesn't appear that they have anything on the personal scale that would be beyond his abilities. Much like the Hive, they're doing some of what the Necron can do and generally not as well as they can do it. The Hive, in particular, are disadvantaged here as much of their powers work because they attack life itself, which Necrons do not have. As for what he'd want, probably a Ghost, some legendary weapons, various Guardians, collections of various armies and ships, as always some battlefield scenes. Not a lot of fauna to grab though.

The Forerunner actually pose a credible threat to Trazyn, more so than anything else here (No, I don't think the Flood would be a problem as he was able to create an effective countermeasure against the Deceiver shard's memetic control for himself and others in fractions of a second.) Additionally, we know Necrodermis actively resists physical alteration, meaning that even though the Flood are able to take control of some conventional technology, that seems extremely unlikely here especially considering it must contend with the Command Protocols. Given he has captured an entire Hive Fleet splinter, he should be able to get some Flood specimens (although, man, bringing them back to 40k presents such a huge risk.) as well as Forerunner stuff as I don't believe they really have much in the way of time manipulation, so he should be able to capture their technology without much fuss. Hiding will be harder for him as I believe Forerunners have really solid sensor tech, but he still has many mehods of tricking or trapping his future collections. Stealing an entire halo ring would probably cross his mind but aside from a splinter fleet, which is probably his largest single exhibit, most of his possessions are smaller stuff, largely being on the scale of recreated scenes from famous battles like Istvaan V and part of an Ork Rok with some Kroozers. So ships and even fleets should be fine, but planetary scale stuff probably not.

Warframe is a pretty powerful setting, but most of that relates to the Void/Untime and it's various effects on the universe and those who can channel it and the Sentients. However, we know that not all Tenno are the same, some are much weaker than others and their Warframes can be captured. The Infested, Grineer and Corpus don't pose a threat to him, the Sentients and the Tenno do so he'll have to try to avoid their attention or he's going to have Tenno doing raids on Solemnance or his ship. He might find Conceptual Embodiment and Transference as both should be possible with anything that has a mind and a body, even if they have no soul. Could be a reversal for Biotransference (or a way to enhance his own proxy possession technology) and would allow him access to essentially "magic" with the Void. He'd love to get the Stalker, maybe a Sentient, some Warframes and if possible, an actual Tenno, although he might have to settle for a Tenno cryopod. Of course, there's a glut of weapons, gear and strange cultural artifacts and animals.

Another place he'll be fine in, no problem. He might want to take reapers and their tech as exhibits, probably an entire relay. He could even take the Citadel and might try just out of sheer hubris and for the challenge of it. He would probably want the Normandy and her crew. I do also thing he'd probably take a bunch of the ruins from Asari, a Matriach, anything progenitor, but really, the main characters are historically very interesting so I think that would be his focus. Rachni as well. That one giant plant monster. I really think he'd just be obssessed with chasing the Normandy around and trying to get them all at once. That'd be a decent fan-fic, maybe.
EmperorEarth said:
Pretty broad, but he's got all the makings of a dangerous Marvel or DC villain who occasionally does a heel-face turn even if he's only doing it so he can collect things. There are ton of magic artifacts and superscience in both settings that he could probably use to make himself stronger if needed (he'd love to get his cold metal hands on a Motherbox or Infinity Stone) but only so he can collect more things, so he'd be more interested in time travel or boom tubes than anything.

He becomes an occasional recurring fan-favorite villain/antihero who just collects famous props and has lengthy insult battles with the Doctor that span centuries between inconveniences everyone so he can do his hobby. His shtick is the same as 40k basically.
