: we know that the leveller comes in the form of an evil
: that comes only every 1000 years

: we also know that his coming is associated with a comet
: that appears in the sky.

: and we know that when Wyrd made the world, he was divided
: from it and his dream shattered, leaving him powerless
: to controll its fate.

: so suppose that teh comet is actually the reflection of
: the world of the dead that appears in the sky and
: promotes the growth of dark sorcerors adn the creation
: of undead.

: now here is the catch. look at the dreams of wyrd that we
: have found. The dream of unlife, teh dispersal dreams,
: and all of the other dreams that the avatara use in
: battle. now if these are the dreams of wyrd, what
: makes us think that wyrd was a nice god. or a good
: god. we could look at the creations of wyrd. humans,
: skrael, fir'bolg. with our nature promoting wars and
: death and domination over one another. so, what makes
: us think that humans as well as the other wyrd races
: are not evil as well as wyrd himself.

: in this case Nyx would have been the good person. the
: trow, the perfect beings, no lust, no wars amongst
: each other. only united against other races.

: so here we go. this would mean that while the world i
: mentioned earlier "rubbed" the evil
: sorcerors came to power, and wyrd somehow came into
: the world, taking the dtrongest physical form he could
: remember. the hero who defeated him. he would unite
: the evil sorcerors(the ones that knew he was the evil
: god) and attack the humans and destroy the world he
: created in an effort to destroy the failure that was
: his world, when he could no longer controll it.

: unfortunatly as the worlds began to separate, he weakens,
: and loses power, and then is defeated by a champion of
: the race he wishes to destroy. and then he would have
: his spirit ripped from the earth and would have to
: wait another 1000 years to come back and start the job
: over again.

An interesting theory. We do tend to assume that Wyrd is a good god, mostly since a) we tend to see creator deities as being good and b) from what little we know of Myth religion and theology, the non-trow inhabitants of that world seem to think that Wyrd is good, which could be as much of an assumption on their part. It's one of those things we just don't have information on. So it is possible that Wyrd is evil, and therefore could be incarnated in the Leveller. Personally, I like the theory that the Leveller and hero are constant battling via re-incarnation, so if Connacht became Balor, Moagim became Alric. But I must admit you're theory is intriguing. It occurs to me that we may also assume Wyrd is good and Nyx is bad since Nyx created the trow. Objectively, they are arguably a more "enlightened" race than anything Wyrd created. But it's hard to stay objective as you face off against the trow in TFL.
My one gripe about your theory is that the comet reflects the world of the dead and therefore makes evil and wicked sorcerors more powerful. This may explain the rise of Levellers, but the appearance of the comet didn't stop Balor from having his head cleaved from his shoulders. If the comet was making him stronger, you would think Wyrd incarnate could have shrugged off the effects of the Eblis Stone. Assuming it was Wyrd incarnate. Thats the problem with theories, nothing is ever conclusively proven.
