Who they are
A figure made of starfield, reached through a gate at the heart of the universe, which will do exactly one thing for the first being to ask. The whole plot of Love and Thunder is a race towards it, and the film's argument is settled by what the man who gets there decides to ask for.

The universe with a face on
Eternity is the sum of all life in the Marvel universe given a shape a mortal can look at — Doctor Strange's first meeting with it is a two-page Ditko sequence that has been imitated ever since. It has a sibling, Infinity, and an opposite, Death, and it very rarely intervenes.
