  • Jack - Jack's birth inadvertently opened a rift to Apocalypse World. On his own, due to not possessing the ability to see the alternate reality, he therefore required the help of a dreamwalker such as Kaia Nieves to consciously open a rift to an alternate reality. Working together, they opened a rift to the Bad Place, instead of Apocalypse World due to Kaia flashing between the two worlds. Due to her flashing between Apocalypse World and the Bad Place, the rift they opened transported everyone to three different locations, Kaia to a roadside, Jack to Apocalypse World and the Winchesters to the bad place. The alternate Zachariah claimed Jack is powerful enough to create a rift big enough to march an army through. The alternate Kaia wished for Jack to open a rift for her to go back home in exchange for giving the Winchesters her spear for using against Michael. When Jack opened the rift to the Bad Place following his second resurrection, he was able to do it simply by concentrating, though in this case he had earlier dreamwalked to the Bad Place through Dark Kaia and may not have needed the active connection to open the rift as a result.
