ultimates
The final destinations
Ultimates is the plural of ultimate—things that are final, fundamental, or most extreme.
In philosophy, ultimates are the most basic principles or realities: The ultimates of existence remain mysterious.
In gaming and sports contexts, ultimates refers to the most powerful abilities or final moves available to characters or players: Save your ultimates for the boss fight.
The word also functions as a verb meaning to reach a final point or conclusion, though this use is rare.
