- We all know him and most people fear him considerable—Hades is perhaps the most well-known God of the Dead out there in the cosmos. Ruling the Underworld, Hades manages the souls of the deceased (in Greece at least) and has judged them accordingly. Infamously as a result of his position, Hades has been time and time again casted as a villain in every medium imaginable. The depths of his evilness varies between work to work, going from an Anti-Villain to perhaps a Complete Monster. In truth, while Hades has committed actions that would be put under scrutiny by modern day sensibilities, they are not that different from what the rest of the Greek gods behaved. Furthermore, if one decides to read up on his mythology even further, they would find Hades to be one of the more reasonable Greek gods there are. Perhaps due to fatigue from this vilification, people started to present Hades in a more complex light. He’s still casts under the antagonistic role often but given actual sympathetic motivations instead of more selfish ones more frequently. In rare occasions, Hades has been casted in a more heroic light (though not by much). Due to these diverse interpretations, they altered Hades in such a way that Hades within the Pantheon has the memories nearly every iteration of his Greek self. For this reason Hades does not leave the Underworld often, as once he sets foot into the Pantheon he becomes one of these iterations at random. It is frustrating and almost confusing to people to see the ruler of the Underworld have so many differing appearances (especially to himself), though most have become familiar to this circumstance act accordingly towards which version of Hades there is present.
- Hades holds an extremely complex relationship with his fellow Greek gods. On a positive note Hades is at least courteous to them, especially to his siblings who are the heads of Olympus. But Hades is not amused his workload has multiplied excessively thanks to the Greek gods’ antics of killing cities at a day like the time when Poseidon sent a giant squid monster to flood a city which caused the Underworld to pile up more work in a day than what it takes in a month. Hades does not complain about his position however, only holding a really dour attitude towards those he sees as causing more trouble than what it is worth (aka, his family again). Whenever Zeus comes in, he always tries coaxing his older brother into doing things that Hades would rather not do. Poseidon is even worse in that regard, as all he talks about is what what random creatures he has hiding in the ocean. Hera... is Hera. Demeter is his sister and mother-in-law and Hades is thankful that he does not have to deal with her regarding Persephone. Hestia is actually the most stable and healthy relationship Hades has out of any of his siblings... which means there is not much to say on that front.
- Considers himself and his wife as head of the Chthonic gods, deities separated from the gods of Olympus by dwelling within the Underworld. Contrary to his attitude towards the Olympians, Hades is far more respectful and appreciative towards them because he believes that they serve much more nuance and competent roles than their counterparts on Olympus. The nepotism could not be seen by most people. Though oddly enough, Hermes is a Chthonic god as well despite being more known for being part of the Olympians. Of what good things that Hades can say about Hermes, he can admit he gets the job of delivering stuff done (even though Hermes considers Hades an enemy after Cerberus bit him on some days).
- Regularly characterized as the god of death, which is Sadly Mythtaken as that job belongs to Thanatos, whose job it is to bring souls to him. Although, Hades is closely connected to several death deities this mistaken perception that he is more involved with the deaths of people when that never was the case. Hades had managed to actually accumulate an incredible amount of knowledge of how death deities conduct their work as a result, so theoretically if Thanatos was out of commission, Hades is more than knowledgeable enough to continue that role. Although, he does not like the the idea of somebody else (even his wife) taking up his role of managing the Underworld.
- The oldest of his siblings, Hades has more awareness of the dangers the Titans pose towards the world and takes the issue of their return more seriously than the rest of his fellow gods. Of course, that is not to say the Titans’ return would have the Olympians remain carefree but Hades steels himself more for their return than anynody. This is why he still has hatred for Kratos, as Hades is not angered that Kratos had defeated him constantly—but also releasing the Titans and ending the age of the Greek gods as a result. Hades still waits for the day the soul of Kratos ends up in his realm so that Hades can administer an extreme punishment for these transgressions. That is, if Kratos as a soul does not rip apart Hades once again.
- Sympathizes towards deities that are victims of demonization like him, which is rather lengthy amount of deities. Unfortunately, many of these followers truly are evil, making people wonder if Hades is merely keeping an intense eye on them. Set is a particular deity that Hades observes, as Set somehow gets most of a bad rep than he has but few if not any interpretations are sympathetic towards the Egyptian god. Hades questions if Set would have been the result if people still had negatively perceived his role until now.
- His most well known depiction of being vilified is by Walt Disney Animation Studios, where they turned him into a deplorable figure who seeks to take over Olympians, going as far as to release a group of Titans (thankfully not related to their parentage) to decimate the Olympians. And as the tale goes, Hades ends up being stopped by Hercules who defeats him and his plot to take over Olympus. With this depiction so well-known, Hades ends up becoming this iteration of himself constantly—to the point when he does return to his domain, all he wants to do is slap himself for acting as if he were James Woods. But this form nets him many friends with the Disney Villains, who had relied of the cunningness this Hades specializes in to aid their agenda with either taking over a kingdom, DEVOURING WORLDS, or... taking over a clubhouse? Speaking of Hercules, the proper Hades does not hate him. If there was anything that Hercules had done that irks Hades, it is rescuing Theseus who had attempted to kidnap his wife prior. Even then he granted permission to Hercules knowing full well that was a potential outcome. Despite all of this, there is still perception that Hades is archenemies with Hercules which likely is the main factor as to why whenever Hades is this version, there is a good chance that Hercules will probably kicks his butt back into the Underworld. Not like anybody could blame Herc or Hades for sour feelings towards each other. Hades banned Hercules merchandise in his realm.
- Wonders how the hell did the Pantheon allow a second version of his high-standing brother to be allowed, when he is sure only one is enough. That said, while not exactly impressed by the jovial quality of that Zeus, he can at least say that Zeus is more respectable because he is more or less cleansed of the foolish traits his brother was known for. With that said, Hades would like to interact with this Zeus out of curiosity but has yet to arrive without turning into his Disney iteration (getting him zapped).
- Started to cut down on his tournaments after a certain trio of travelers had started to defeat every contestant multiple times over. Even when he allowed Hercules into the tournament and Hades even applied for his own tournament just to show up a spiky-haired brat but even he lost then. Whenever Hades loses, he would always rant that he never poured significant power into defeating what he deems as small fry. That is technically true as Hades in that form is one of the weakest versions of him... even though that Hades was probably giving everything he’s got—okay, this is all too confusing.
- Abhors the other version of himself that is present in the Pantheon, who is so vile that he is considered his own entity. Hades may not like the idea of managing so many souls but views it as worst when fusing those souls to create monsters in the hopes to conquer everything does not cover just a Moral Event Horizon, but a rather pointless plan considering what proper Hades does not see any benefit in plots concerning the Take Over the World. Hades would side with Palutena and her army to stop that Hades, though does not get along for... being Hades and not really being able to send forces to combat as they are all stuck in the Underworld. A funny related story of Dark Pit attempting to kill this Hades in mistake of him being the other one, but once that mistake was solved Dark Pit struck a good respect towards this Hades sharing the same dourness he has. Viridi has become quite nervous over the prospect her top army member suddenly ditching her for someone else.
- Has a rather... mixed relationship with his children. His relationship with Zagreus can be beat described as being in a constant rough patch, with the attempts at independence Zagreus does clashing the the lawful ideology of Hades. Nico very much is estranged from Hades much like the rest of the modern day children he had though due to his children becoming targets if he interacts with them. Although both still do respect their father and do no hate him despite their misgivings. Zagreus is more of a hassle to deal with for Hades, so he is the child that the god focuses on than the latter. Being a parent is a job Hades will likely never stick the landing at—a fact which is widely agreed upon.
- Does not hate people for resurrection funnily enough. He was going to let Orpheus leave his lover... until he blew the challenge Hades gave to him by looking backwards. There is aforementioned incident with Theseus and Hercules as well. What Hades hates about resurrection however, is when those brought back to life from his Underworld bypass his say in the matter. Such an action is the equivalent of someone defying his own word, which is a big no-no to even Zeus. Grenth does this so often with the souls of the Underworld, the guy earned a certain hatred from Hades for this. However, what Hades sees more of a serious issue are Nekron and Nagash, who plot to drain all of the souls of the Underworld to increase the numbers of their respective armies drastically. Such a plan infuriates Hades, no matter which version and Hades has consulted every type of security measurer to ensure something that even has a semblance of that plan transpiring.
- Not particular proud of how he kidnapped his wife, an action that would have been seen as romantic in Greek times. Even discounting the modern day scrutiny of those actions, Hades wishes he could have handled that action better as Demeter is now constantly on his back because of this which could have been mitigated if he actually talked it out with him on the marriage prospect. He does not regret it regardless, though that sentiment has been more apparent thanks to these modern criticisms. When he sees people who continue to jump on weddings without thought, Hades could only see the foolishness his and his wife were in at that time. Despite this, Hades can pull off being a romantic quite well despite being grumpy on the outside.
- Has come to the belief that perhaps it would have been better for the era of the Greek gods came to an end, as Hades is aware of the Alternate Universe of where if it did continue, the Greek gods would have been plunged into civil war where Hades would lead his side of the gods against Zeus. It did not end well for him, or anybody for that matter by the end of that war. Although, Hades does question why he had become a giant mechanical ship instead of something with flesh and bone.
- This is not the first time he would be interpreted as a giant mechanical being, as he in Shin Mazinger is an cyborg alien who rules an underground empire where he seeks to conquer the rest of the cosmos with his armies. He converted the people of the Mycenae Empire into cyborgs and serve as his troops and intends to robotize the rest of mankind. This version of Hades would be considered extremely dangerous if not the fact that mechas gang up on him to the point he would be obliterated before he could do any serious damage. Even after coming back as a flaming soul does not give help him in that regard as he is again, snuffed out by various mechs like a candlelight.
- His iteration in The DCU clashes with Wonder Woman the most out of any of the heroes there, although far less often than when Wonder Woman duels with Ares. Interestingly, Hades and Pluto were to separate deities like the rest of the Greek and Roman Pantheons until an inexplicable event merged them together into a single being that goes by both names (though still mostly Hades). There is one rather inexplicably odd occurrence where Ares took the role as ruler of the Underworld for quite some time after deposing Hades from the position. Ares even changed his appearance and attitude just to fit the job better. It is unknown whether or not that Hades returned to his position after Ares was defeated by Diana yet again, though Hades may be still in unable to rule as Diana made him fall in love with his reflection for all of eternity. It took Persephone to toss her husband’s reflection into a fiery abyss to make him stop making out with himself.
- Still freaking over those who can kill souls, something that he was unsure could even happen until he saw it himself. The only being that Hades believes who bad the capabilities of doing that are Kaos, the creator of the universe but even he never thought random beings outside the Greek pantheon can do just that. Hades is still appalled beings like Lord English and Majin Buu are present in the Pantheon despite posing an extreme liabilities to the state of the space time continuum. That is another aspect Hades does not like about the Pantheon, that mortals in the first place can come in. He is accepting of other divine beings and even those with a fraction of divine blood as well but regular people being given the rank of gods makes the title be given less gravitas immensely.
- Not really a fan of Darkseid, who Hades is sure that is the main reason for his own demonization as Darkseid has used his name when appearing on Earth. Not only that but several other names of demonized beings like Kali as well, so Darkseid may be guilty of even more demonizations. Darkseid would like to say that these names are the closest titles that the foolish mortal gave him that can compare to his feared nature, so Hades has to be grateful instead that Darkseid allowed this. To be quire fair, that was not the most devastating insult that Hades had ever heard in his lifetime.
- Regarded as the prime enemy to Athena's Saints. In their universe Hades was sealed in Elysium as he was just too powerful to be kept around. That is not hyperbole, as what techniques Hades knows are so powerful—the entirety of the Pantheon can be eliminated due to these abilities. The Greatest Eclipse allows Hades to manipulate the entire solar system and everything within it, destroying all souls and everything who are consumed by the Eclipse. If that does not sound overpowered enough, Hades utilizes the Lost Canvas when he had reincarnated into the body of a young painter (the Reincarnation of Hades is when Hades possesses the purest soul on Earth). In the Lost Canvas, everything Hades paints as a portrait can be manipulated and destroyed as he pleases which he used in an attempt to destroy Earth. This Hades does not have the highest opinion on humanity to put it lightly. Though hostile towards the Saints, Hades cannot hate Athena who is their leader, as he respects her overall work ethic. That still did not stop him from crippling one of the Saints for the rest of his life, sadly.
- Has actually led a terrorist group called the Alliance of Hell which he formed alongside a few other deities like Nyx, Angra Mainyu, and even Tartarus (yes, he pulled an Enemy Mine with Hades on this one) to eliminate the users of Longinus who they believed with be a threat to every mythological figure out there. This makes him enemies to Issei and the rest of the DxD group because of this and the threat they posed was enough to take control of London. With Hades and Angra Mainyu’s capture forcefully dissolved the the Alliance of Hell, needless to say his terrorism stint did not go as well as Hades would have hoped. In the Pantheon, Hades still believes Longinus is a grave threat that is on par with the Rage of Sparta if left uncheck, but is not willing to go after the DxD crew and their other allies due to being unable to gather enough forces to do that tango. The DxD crew still think he’s an ass no matter what, so there is no point in Hades trying to fix that bridge.
- Since he looked like a skeleton when leading the Alliance of Hell, Hades managed to find a good connection between Ainz Gaol as they both looked remarkable similar to each other during that stint. Though he does not care what conflicts Gaol starts in the surface, he can appreciate Ainz being a capable leader that CERTAIN Olympians should take after.
- Though resentment is something that does not get to Hades regarding his role (though he would say that he can serve at least as a stricter leader to the Olympians), when he does rebel against Zeus the Underworld ruler takes on the form of a handsome Hunk of a man on the level of Zagreus and can dish out an obscene amount of devastation as he rampages across a map. Odin despises Hades due to manipulating his soul to grab the power of Yggdrasil, which would have made him more powerful than Zeus if he had utilized its power. This iteration of himself combines both the power and cunningness his vilified self, so people if they see him should run as fast as possible and not be distracted by his chiseled abs.
- Could not care less about the Force or the conflict between the Jedi and the Sith, as wherever they end up would not be his Underworld. However, he is disgusted by by Vitiate, the ruler of the Sith who has the ability to devour life itself. One knows the horror of whatever Vitiate has which means Hades—who was not familiar with how the Force works—can recognize that the lack of presence of it is disturbing in of itself. Hades is studying the ways of The Dark Side to see if he could use it against Vitiate and maybe drag him to the Underworld in the process just for good measure.

- Annoyed by: Racists
- Distrusted by: Deities from Egypt
- Originally considered the guardian deity of Upper Egypt, he was a god who was tasked to protect Ra in his daily travels from the serpent Apophis, and a god of deserts and storms. However, after Egypt was unified and was once invaded by people who found him similar to their chief god, the people of Egypt started to villainize him. And as those in the Pantheon soon found out, faith changes deities. The once mercurial Trickster God is seen as a God of Evil, and a God of Chaos in the form of riot and disorder. He has the head of an animal no-one can agree on.
- One reason why he got into the Pantheon is that when he heard that Osiris was here, he was furious. He swore that he would tear the gates to the Pantheon down if he had to reach his brother. Eventually, his wish was fulfilled and he was brought in. And such, the brotherly hatred would continue once more. However, when he found out that one reason why he ascended was that Apophis was already here, he was... less than thrilled.
- Set: You allowed that snake to ascend before me? What is wrong with you!? Do you think that I have time dealing with that serpent every day!? You are all idiots! One day I will rule over this place and drive Apophis away forever!
- With other beings already cut from the divine cloth, and not just what he's familiar with, Set desired to make friends and expand his base of power. He does realize the position he has, but roles with it as the Trope Pantheon collectively recognizes his positive aspects. Within the Trope Pantheon Apophis has a mercurial personality that shifts between his anti-hero old portrayal and villainous later portrayal. He used to bein the Hall of Sinners, before being moved to the Hall of Unpopularity as Demonization was more about reputation than breaking some divine law.
- On note on his hatred forwards his brother, there seem to be few reasons why he wanted to kill Osiris. Aside from mere jealousy for his brother and wanting to usurp his throne, another reason for it seems to be that Osiris once slept with Set's wife (and their sister). So while it is hard to be on Set's side, gods have done worse things with less justification. In some tales Osiris has the excuse of being tricked into thinking Set's wife was his own, but in earlier tales he's guilty of drunkenly raping her so Set's wrath comes off as more karmic. Regardless of what mood he's in he HATES Osiris, and he considers Horus an arch-enemy whose violent conflict included removed eyes and testicles, and an occasion of Set raping Horus.
- He is the father of both Anubis and Sobek. The latter is more like him in a chaotic and mercurial behavior, while Anubis is more law-abiding. However sometimes he isn't their dad, but Sobek was fathered by Khnum and Anubis was fathered by Osiris or Ra. Sobek's mom happened to be Neith. He tries not to antagonize them even if the differing myths make father's day a confused mess for him. FYI: never try to call Anubis an evil god just because he's a death god. You can call Set an evil god if you like, just not Anubis. That said, him and Anubis don't like each other. Along with Nephthys Tawaret is also his wife, though they don't talk to each other that often and neither are remotely faithful to one another.
- Set despises YHVH as He makes liberal use of Demonization to secure His power base. He balks at any incarnation of the Biblical God since even if they aren't bastards the nature of monotheism excludes and demonizes other deities. Set scoffs at his claims he was a part of His angel Satan by saying that was an imposter. And while he's not above working for Law, that was entirely for his own agenda and he's not His lackey. By contrast he's willing to hang out with Lucifer for general change, but he's hardly a reliable ally for the Chaos Bringer.
- He is drinking buddies with Hades due to both of them being deities who mortals don't seem to get. They used to be full allies, but Hades is less likely nowadays to be in his "Disney" mode and Set can be too chaotic for his tastes. Also, the god of deserts has been making long-term plans with Cronus in order to get back at the relatives they hate. However he's even more mercurial with the Titan and sees him as more of a means to an end. By contrast, him and Hades have an Odd Friendship. Set is closer to Cain, who wondered if his Greek name Seth had anything to do with his little brother. Pretty understandable, and the two have bonded over the feeling of being outcasts.
- Despite everything he remains a guardian to Ra. His dynamic with him is akin to a Psycho Sidekick and it has no effect in stopping him from feuding with Osiris, but he is loyal. In fact, the loyalty plays a part in his Face–Heel Turn. His hatred of Osiris originally derives from Isis overthrowing Ra and setting up Osiris as king, so he's disgusted in principle. Set's reluctant alliance with Zia Rashid comes from her having been a host for Ra, along with being a host for his wife Nephthys.
- In spite of being Ra's ally given the whole Demonization thing Set and Ra have had their falling outs. One time he loaned his minions of Set out to Aku in order to deal with Samurai Jack; Ra had to come to Jack's rescue because even his sword couldn't hurt them. Another time Set had made his desire and ambitions to overthrow Ra as the new Sun God, and leader of the Ennead loud and clear, because as long as things stayed the same, humanity would never be free and the gods would forever use "Vessels"* to interact and run the world. Ra has pointed out that he knows Set's loyalty can be shaky at times, but he always comes back to him in the end and he's simply to useful in fighting off Apophis.
- His dynamic with Ra and being from Ancient Egypt got the attention of Settra, who's ego exceeds even Set. And yet he still remains loyal to the gods and pays them respect. If it's Ra Set is cool with that, but he mainly sees Settra as a rival to his own pursuit of power. Settra personally sees Set as what Nagash would be like if he had a conscience, if a tiny one as like Set he murdered his brother as part of his ambitions for power. While Set admits they're similar, he considers Nagash a humanoid Apophis who's Lack of Empathy borders on the solipsistic, especially since his grand goal is "turn everyone into undead slaves because my ego is that enormous". Nagash was simply annoyed because he thought Set could be a useful pawn, and remains ever shameless to his evil.
- He is naturally interested in Egyptian deitiesnote , though most have chosen not to get involved in whatever he's doing and look at him with distrust. Menat doesn't like him, that's for sure. Nearby Kahandaq has made sure to keep an eye on whatever Set's doing, and as one of the gods powering Black Adam is Egyptian. Set has failed to prove why they should work for or be at odds with one another, beyond Set seeing him as a potential spanner in larger schemes he needs to take note of. A different god associated with Egypt, Nyarlathotep, was another rival. The two do love their chaos, but Nyarlathotep works for a pantheon far above the Earth. As the wickedness of Nyarlathotep compares to Apophis, Set isn't all that pleased by the Black Pharaoh's posturing.
- Set is an SCP, as seen in his above-mentioned epitaths. As a God of Chaos The SCP Foundation is a bit concerned at the idea one of their rivals, the Chaos Insurgency, wants to convince the Egyptian god to be on their side. Set isn't interested in taking sides, except for opposing the Global Occult Coalition because they consider him a dangerous anomaly that must be destroyed. Set told them to eat a shit and pointed out he's an important factor as to why Apophis hasn't managed to eat Ra. He further tried to defend his actions against Osiris by saying he and Horus aren't truly strong enough to defend Egypt so that's why he should be in charge.
- Even though he is an evil deity, he isn't a fan of destroying the world. He wants to rule the world, not destroy it. While the main reason why he specifically needs to protect Ra is that he is only god immune to Apophis' hypnotism, he still does his duty. Of course, he wishes that Apophis could one day die so that he can progress with his plans without a problem. His will to oppose Apophis extends to point where he is willing to work with mortals without any tricks (though it does help that they knew his true name). As much as they distrust each other he very begrudgingly works with Lord Vyce to stop the end of the world. Naturally hearing about this fueled Linkara's belief that Ancient Egypt was a den of cursed evilnote .
- NEVER compare and conflate him with Apophis as he hates the snake vile, which is why Conan is on his shit list. He was quick to remind the Doctor that Sutekh the Destroyer is not him, and he is disgusted by both him and Apocalypse impersonating him. As he is still a force of evil, the Doctor doesn't trust him. The initial disgust for the latter dissapated upon learning more about En Sabah Nur. Set has a Might Makes Right mentality when it comes to who should rule and believes to be that powerful to rule over everyone else. So while he has his own plans that the mutant would step on, he's come to like Apocalypse. Due to holding similar values and being an Egyptian who predates his demonization, Ramses is another ally of the God of Chaos... and another foe of Moses.
- He gets along really well with Scar. Like him, Scar's an Evil Uncle and evil brother, murdering his rightful leader of said brother. Simba and Mufasa were on edge upon learning Scar had a god on his side. Another good friend of his from the House of Mouse is Ursula, the goddess of Adaptational Villainy. Given her goals and relationship with King Triton, it's no shock. There's a practical element; being a desert god Set doesn't have any experience in naval battles, nor does Ursula have much experience on dry land. In short, they compliment each other and cover each other's weakness.
- The House of Beasts is still confused about what kind of animal the so-called "Set animal" is. Even Set has forgotten over the ages what the animal is when seen in modern times. Was it a stylized jackal, donkey, hyena or something extinct. On very rare occasions like The Book of Faiyum, his head becomes a flamingo. However he does have a clear association with red hippos, with him and Horus becoming hippos in one of their fights. As he's not the friendly type, he was interested in Blackbeard because he's a would-be ubermensch pirate who has a hippo motif and uses darkness.
- One of his plans for conquest involves obtaining the Scepter of Was. When he came to know that Ramses was in the Pantheon, he figured that he would snatch the Scepter away from him. Unfortunately, he found out that the Scepter was seemingly buried alongside Tutankhamun, so his quest was for nothing. They weren't allies at the time but he's let by-gones be by-gones. Afterwards Crocodile has contemplated working with Set given their devious personalities and power over deserts. It hasn't gotten anywhere though as Set isn't interested in his goals, but he does admit the Devil Fruit user is one cunning bastard.
- Believe it or not, his favorite food is lettuce. Though he's slow to trust salad dressings due to that one thing what happened between him and Horus. In spite of being apparently sterilized, possibly even castrated by Horus, he's got a lot of sexual prowess, which has led him to peddle sex-related spells to the Halls of Lust to make a tidy profit. He doesn't mind how you use them, or that time a mortal tried to emulate him and named Sutekh as well. Of course, he gets annoyed when JonTron purposely misspells him as "HUEGH". And don't use his spells in any food-related foreplay; he's still salty about the lettuce incident. Not a fan of American Pie for that reason... again, please don't press him on the manner. For those wondering his least favorite food is eggs. He wants Thoth to shut up about it.
- Because Set has been peddling sex-related spells and he Really Gets Around, he incurred the wrath of Cheems who immediately tried to bonk him on the head. Set proceeded to punt Cheems across the Nile.
- He has an entire vampire clan, the Followers of Set, who worship him as a god, although there's much debate on whether the Set they worship is the genuine article, a mortal-turned-Antediluvian who claimed his identity, if Set took human form or if Set lost his divinity and was cursed into a mortal existence... or all of them at the same time. Set is quiet on the subject, but doesn't particularly seem to care what anyone thinks, since no matter who or what they worship he still reaps the gains. On a related note, he also has a werewolf tribe as sworn enemies, the Silent Striders, who are allies of Osiris and were cursed by the Followers of Set to never be able to step on their ancestral land of Egypt. Set is not quiet on them. As far as Set is concerned, the only good werewolf is a dead and rotting one.
- Excluding his Fantastic Racism against werewolves Set usually derisively sighs when dealing with general racism. After all, he's the god of foreigners. That said, despite having a low opinion of them he doesn't go out of his way to antagonize Nazis like the Red Skull as while they see themselves as above Egyptians, they don't consider them subhumans like Jews, Romas and Slavs. The Aryan Brotherhood are so batshit insane and extreme in their radical views they consider Set and Egyptians are subhumans though. Naturally, Set agrees with everyone that they're trash.
- On his better days, Set is known to pity the Demonization Naofumi Iwatani underwent due to a False Rape Accusation. As Set is a murderous rapist himself, it's far from a glowing endorsement. Given his own standing he has some sympathy for Morgan la Fey undergoing this, though she's more willing to reciprocate as they share a desire to scheme and undermine royalty for their own ends. Together, the two are hoping to reshape public opinion on them to become revered beings. And if it demonizes and vilifies their hated enemies, bonus. It's certainly Set's most high-concept ambition.
- On a good day, he's also up for a game of Luxor. He's causing havoc, but it feels more as an excuse to justify playing the game as he's still got a reputation as a God of Chaos to uphold.
- Has a "weird roommates" situation with Sun Wukong since a bunch of maguses had the idea of having a vessel to devour flesh of three gods for their united purposes. They make up two, and while they don't interact with one another they're in communication with Ergo to let him use their powers.

- There are older, stranger gods in the Greek pantheon than the Olympians. One such group is the daimons; beings that personify concepts. One such is Thanatos, he whom embodies non-violent death as opposed to the Keres who represented death. Thanatos was regarded as a grim, merciless figure who is disliked by gods and mortal alike. He's not that much of a fan, disliking both mortals, and gods for being outside his domain. That being said, he brings a peaceful form of death, and ultimately is essential for the world.
- His relationship with his fellow Greco-Roman gods is rather strained; then again, that's the default for their divine family. Though Thanatos finds it frustrating he can never claim them, he ultimately has a good relationship with them. Thanatos is the closest to his sister Nemesis, being grim arbiters of necessary actions. One of the few Greek gods who actually likes Ares. When Sisyphus chained Thanatos up in Tartarus, angered that war combatants wouldn't die, Ares helped free Thanatos. He's been grateful for this ever since. No-one's quite sure why he's representing violent death as well, but Thanatos has stated "I'm more of a catch-all death god. Peaceful demises are my focus, and I want the Keres to feel useful."
- The House of Demons have given Thanatos a spot, however, Thanatos declined as he's not that kind of demon. His type of demon is more in the line of spirits, not the Abrahamic view on demons. Not interested in the House of Ghosts either.
- Thanatos believed that Dream of the Endless was his nephew, being both named Morpheus and masters of dreams. It soon became apparent that the Morpheus in the pantheon is far grander than even Hypnos, however, Thanatos is fond of him regardless. Learning the Endless were the scion of Night and Time, Thanatos suspects there's a lot his mother and uncle Chronos haven't told him about. As with all existing Greek gods, Thanatos has sworn vengeance upon Kratos for the mass slaughter of the gods he's caused, and killing him. In Kratos' defense, Thanatos brought it on himself by taking his brother away... though since Kratos killed his daughter Erinys they're both guilty here.
- He was wondering what his step-father Erebus was doing. Though annoyed that this beast is impersonating the Primordial of Darkness, the amount of times he's been Sadly Mythtaken gives the reaper some compassion for the entity. That, or there's some greater purpose he sees in the creature and wants to exploit it.
- Concerned over Tartarus and Gaea for trying to capture him. Thanatos does NOT want to go back to Tartarus again.
- Thanatos is a rather misrepresented god. Many see him as villainous, exaggerating his simple disdain into a hatred of the mortal and immortal. This peaked in the battlefield of the gods, where Thanatos would become a borderline Omnicidal Maniac who obsessively enforced death as a brutal judge and generally came off as a dick. That being said, some of his more heroic qualities shine as Archaon Thanatos. Sometimes serves Hades (not the Greek one) as his main enforcer. He's also really fricking weird and a Psychopathic Manchild. Apparently, he does this gig because he got extra powers, health insurance and free soda. In this form he's sometimes referred to as Tanatos, but he prefers to empathize the H for HAMAZING!
- This misrepresentation dates back even to the Classical Age. As mentioned he is often mistaken to be the representation of all death, and was also identified to be Orcus, punisher of broken oaths. It's been going on so long even Thanatos isn't sure what's the truest side of him. He feels most at home and true in the Percy Jackson universe, manifesting as an attractive black man.
- It should probably be said that being Sadly Mythtaken makes Thanatos come off as rather odd and unpredictable, with a confusing array of powers.
- As a result of his bastardization, Thanatos pities deities who suffer similar fates. Most of all, he's compassionate Hades as they're both death-based gods who get treated poorly by other's opinions. Thanatos notices it odd that Smite brings out a more accurate Hades while it just brings out his inner demons. Similarly, he's sympathetic to Oyashiro-sama.
- More often than not, Thanatos feels he must embrace the villain within and acts as a dark god. Wreck-It Ralph often helps council Thanatos in these matters, which in gratitude let him permit the Death Is Cheap nature of video games. Even when not being Laughably Evil, he feels for Medusa. The two keep getting Sadly Mythtaken or treated as villains, giving them something to mull over.
- Thanatos is rightly pissed off with the Great Will. YHVH has a nasty habit of demonizing and twisting gods of various pantheons and the Spirit of Death will not stand for it. Some believe YHVH might even be responsible for the corrupted versions of Thanatos in and out of the pantheon. Lucifer has asked Thanatos if he wishes to ally with him, only for Thanatos to decline as he doesn't care for any chaotic ambitions.
- As part of his own investigation of the Amala Multiverse, Thanatos manifested as a Persona to Minato Arisato and Kotone. Very interested in Aleph. His ability to Kill the God makes an alliance with him an ace in the hole against his enemies. Thanatos was horrified upon learning what YHVH did to him and is trying to help him in his endeavor to put YHVH down for good.
- Amongst all, he's the Ultimate Death Arcana and continued to assist Igor's assistant Elizabeth during the incident against Hi-No-Kagutsuchi. A better performance, in Thanatos mind, because when he was on Makoto Yuki's hand, sometimes, he felt like his performance was kind of lackluster, what with being "That Crap Persona You Never Use".
- As one might expect for a death god, Thanatos is interested in the other grim reapers of the pantheon. Regardless of the mood, he looks up to both Death of the Endless and Death the Horseman. When he's feeling nice he's on good terms with the kind-hearted Discworld Death. Regardless of how he feels, you can always expect him to end up having a drink with the Regular Show Death and mulling over their defeats.
- Considers William Hand as an awful joke against his fellow death gods, and endlessly gets frustrated at his complete inability to claim him as he's Nekron's herald. Thanatos sees Nekron as far too extreme for his taste and an insult towards death gods as well. In Thanatos' opinion, Nekron's not some Cosmic Entity, but the celestial equivalent of someone making noise complaints about their neighbor. Similarly, he considers Chernabog an insult against his step-father Erebus, a corrupted form of darkness. As he says "dude, stop giving darkness a bad name. You're a Satanic Archetype, not a god of darkness!"
- Thanatos finds Beerus a fun guy to hang around with, being a God of Destruction who's not grim. That, or he's trying to curry favor for Beerus to eliminate the Dragon Balls someday. Time will tell if there's any agenda. Has associated himself as the EXS of Orie Paladia. His motive for doing so is unknown.
- Reaper sees Thanatos as a rival. Thanatos isn't concerned that much given his lower rank and being a complete edgelord, but his powerful healing factor makes him frustrating to try and take out.
- Thanatos isn't a fan of immortals, though his true anger goes to those who cannot die AT ALL. They represent an utter failure of his abilities and occupation, and are an endless source of frustration. He also has it out for those who lust for immortality as it gives him bad memories of Sisyphus. This is especially true with Frieza, who wants to take him out as an alternative means of immortality instead of the Dragon Balls. Saw a lot of himself in Dhuum. Though sometimes doubting his methods, he agrees that death needs to have stakes. He's also utilizing Dhuum as his spy for the GUAD, to finally claim Black Hand and screw over Nekron.
- He's aware that Death Is Cheap in the Pantheon. When aggressive this pisses him off to no end, but in general he's come to terms with it; "They've earned a stay off the chopping block, and there's still their mortal form to pick off. And I do mean a stay-those who are elected to deification can fall from grace. And I have the patience to wait it out."
- Regards Nurgle as a complete abomination against both life and death, and a threat to his existence. He's expressed similar disgust towards Dr. Weil and AM for perverting mortality. Though he's not as hate-filled towards Dr. Angela Ziegler, Jean Grey and Grenth, when he gets pissy, he'll try to take them off for making death cheap. Far more on alert when it comes to Homura Akemi, due to breaking the laws of death in his eyes.
- While they constantly cheat death, Thanatos pities Scathach, Fujiwara and Kenny. After all, it's not their fault and they're sick of their undying nature. Thanatos is trying to help cure them of this.

- La Squadra Esecuzioni. The high-ranking assassins of Passione, they proved themselves an effective team that aided in the Boss' criminal empire. Unfortunately his despotic and socially apathetic nature had him refuse a well-deserved pay raise and territory, not giving them the respect for a job well done. When they attempted to investigate his identity, he brutally murdered two of their comrades and displayed their dissected remains. This act of paranoia turned them into enemies, however the Boss would set them up against Bucciarati's rebellious gang to kill two birds with one stone. This almost got the Boss killed.
- Applies to the group as a whole
- They're a keen reminder on why you shouldn't work for Diavolo. Having only escaped a Fate Worse than Death through his ascension, Diavolo hoped they would be focused on Giorno and friends. And at first he was right, as only individual members ascended at first. Then, the rest joined under the title of Dude, Where's My Respect?. A decision was made; as Diavolo is their more hated foe, an armistice will be made with Giorno's gang until Diavolo is dealt with permanently. Only then will they go back to fighting each other for supremacy.
- Compared to Diavolo or Cioccolata, the team's A Lighter Shade of Black. Sure they're still willing to be part of the drug trade, but they have a camraderie and are usually not overly cruel. They find the 456's drug trade too much, and dislike major traitors as they themselves felt betrayed by Diavolo. They have less moral compunction towards Walter White, but that's mainly because his egotism reminds them of Diavolo and don't want to work for him... even if White is still less evil. The visceral brutality of the Red Wedding is a bit too much for them as well, given what they saw of poor Sorbet and Gelato.
- They've found work with a number of mob bosses, making good use of their assassination skills. Their employers were picked because they are capable of being pleasant bosses and are going to give them their due respect and pay. Some had hesitance due to La Squadra's involvement in the drug trade, but the team is willing to go clean if need be.
- La Squadra recognizes that there are other assassins in market, such as Agent 47 and the Brave Companions. The former is more a personal rival, but the latter group is both a rival and someone they deeply dislike. Mainly, because they're savages who Rape, Pillage, and Burn; basically, "what if Cioccolata was an entire mercenary group". And as far as La Squadra is concerned, they deserve the title of "Brave Companions" way more. It's understandable for them to think so compared to the Bloody Mummers. As the Dark Brotherhood consistently works with Diavolo, they're also enemies.
- While trying to undermine Diavolo's operations they've begun targeting Polpo's contacts. They've gone after Dimitri Rascalov and the unhinged Russian Mob boss known only as the Son, though they have been known to get away from time to time, The Slavers also fell on their, and considering what kind of people they are, few are willing to even object.
- La Squadra is on good terms with Yoruka Kirihime as she's an assassin who was betrayed. Not so with Jimmy, due to his hatred of the mafia and La Squadra is part of that. They're also on good terms with Hit for being a professional and respectful hitman. On the other end, they are targeted by Light Yagami for being killers for hire and organized criminals... and they snort at this as Light has killed more people than all of them combined. Kira justifies this as he's killing for a better world, but they just replied "define better world".
- Applies to Risotto Nero
- Risotto Nero is the leader of La Squadra di Esecuzione, proving himself an ingenious and determined foe that almost took down the Boss. Even he regarded him as a Worthy Opponent. Has a powerful close range stand, Metallica. A cluster of small metallic beings, they give him the ability to manipulate iron in a 5 to 10 meter range. Microscopic iron particles can be used to cover his body in them to reflect light, acting as camouflage. This makes him a danger to the likes of Steel up close. He's interested in Magneto because of his far greater ability to manipulate magnetism, and wants to be taught how to increase the potential of his own stand. He hasn't given the man a good reason why, so it hasn't gone anywhere yet.
- The deadliest ability of Metallica is the power to manipulate the iron in someone's blood stream. Despite human bodies only having seven grams of iron, he can create knives, scissors and other sharp things to give his enemies hell. And without iron the body can't process oxygen, causing them to suffocate on dry land. Korra is horrified at this because of her own experience with bloodbending, though as an assassin Risotto is only going to get close enough for it when he's really pissed off.
- Metallica (the actual music group) were not happy with the fact he uses their name for his Stand, given their opposition to drugs. Though for reasons mentioned below, he does understand their distaste for alcoholism.
- Because he can manipulate blood, he's interested in Jedah for doing the same. Atrocitus seems more interested in him. He could perfectly understand his hatred for the cruelty of Diavolo, and the loss of his friends. He offered potential membership into the Red Lantern Corps, though Nero politely resigned as he knows it can take away one's senses and his heart will stop beating if he takes it off. The head of the Red Lantern Corps gave him some advice on further manipulating and weaponizing blood, likely that he might accept the offer one day.
- His turn to evil came when a drunk driver ran over his cousin at 14. He spent four years in jail but Nero couldn't bring himself to not hate him, leading to him killing the driver. For this reason he has contempt for incompetent or straight up corrupt law enforcement like Clancy Wiggum and Manfred Von Karma, and bad drivers like Roscoe P Coltrane. He stays away from the House of Alcohol because of this.
- He's no fan of Nicky Cavella; the man is a psychopath even by mobsters and a moron to boot. He wanted to get him to throw his life away against the Punisher to protect his sorry ass, Nero knows his track record. He also knows that his own illegal drug trade will piss off Frank and Jason Todd, though he doesn't sell them to kids.
- Applies to Formaggio
- Formaggio is a relaxed individual, though he can come off as a Jerkass. That's mainly because he's still upset about Sorbet and Gelato's deaths, mind you, and was upset they didn't ascend as a consequence of their Posthumous Character status. He's fond of cats, though one attempt to pet it backfired when he got scratched so he shrank the cat into a glass bottle. Glenn Quagmire wanted to give him a talking too, which led to Formaggio rolling his eyes and going "like I'd respect the opinion of a Serial Rapist".
- He does get along better with the House of Felines than Quagmire would like to think, and he grins smugly about that. Mainly, the Hyenas. He convinced them they would work better serving La Squadra than Scar, and he can easily move around food for them by shrinking it first so he can easily carry it. They found this delectable. Katz asked if he could help with Formaggio's endeavors, which he agreed. However he knows Katz is an Ax-Crazy Serial Killer like Cioccolata, so is cautious working with him.
- Formaggio's Stand is Little Feet, which allows him to shrink things or himself. One of his assassinations was shrinking down a car, getting the target to swallow it seemingly harmlessly, then enlarge it. Given his position of an organized criminal and assassin, he often ends up on the bad end to both Hank Pym and Ray Palmer. Of course, it's just business for him. He is frustrated at them being able to change their size along with him, as usually only he can freely toggle shapechanging.
- Didn't know why Sheogorath was interested in him and his actions at first, but given his love of CHEESE! Formaggio figured why; his gleefully addled mind led to him to associate his name with the food, and assumes it's a Meaningful Name. Formaggio pointed out "it's just a name". Just so long as nobody points out like Swiss Cheese, he had a bunch of holes put in him.
- Applies to Illuso
- The lean Illuso is notably the one La Squadra member without an Edible Theme Naming. Character-wise he is a prideful, and rather dickish individual even if he's not outright cruel and sadistic. And he has some reason to be so, as Man in the Mirror lets him sever Stands from their users. He likes to rub in Kakyoin's face that there is, in fact, a world inside the mirror.
- Unfortunately for Illuso, in the pantheon his ability makes him more vulnerable to Bloody Mary. Unfortunately for those with a Persona, because it bars energy from entering the mirror world he can separate people from their Persona. This possibly extends to others who utilize some form of external energy in combat, but those with a Natural Weapon can be pretty much be guaranteed to be immune to the detrimental effects.
- Illuso is personal nightmare fuel for Snow White of the Blood Team, due to her phobia of mirrors which is linked to her OCD. Illuso has no reason to go after her so it's not like they're enemies, however she remains fearful of him anyway due to his Stand.
- Given his power, some have wondered what might happen if Illuso entered the Magic Mirror. Illuso himself wonders, but would rather not push it. He does think that the Magic Mirror is very underutilized. Given his powers some felt he might work alongside the Rogues due to their Mirror Master, but he dismisses it as "small time".
- Despite being a jerk, his demise is not hard to feel bad for as he suffered the full brunt of Purple Haze, resulting in a gruesome viral death. While the Enemy Mine situation with Giorno and friends was going to be hard anyway, Illuso has to hold himself back from trying to hit Fugo. Illuso is utterly petrified of Nurgle.
- Applies to Prosciutto
- Prosciutto stands as a serious and calm killer, however while ruthless he is a very supportive member of La Squadra. The no-nonsense assassin was the one to suggest Gustavo Fring join their hitman team as a financier and they work with him to make money, as the two have gained a mutual respect towards one another for their calm, consummately competent nature.
- He was impressed to learn Pesci's increase in confidence after his death, as he always tried to help him out like a Big Brother Mentor. It is unknown if they are true brothers, or more they are like brothers. Either way, Prosciutto puts a lot of value on brotherhood and has a lot of contempt for Scar for murdering his own brother.
- His respect towards Pesci's change extends to him having a fondness for Kirin Toudou and James Henry Trotter due to them overcoming their fears and become courageous. As the most affable of La Squadra, they might be a bit scared of Prosciutto but they appreciate the sentiment. Prosciutto also sympathy for Sandor Clegane due to the horrible treatment his monster of a brother gave him.
- His Stand, the Grateful Dead, is powerful due to its ability to induce Rapid Aging in mere seconds. This makes him exceptionally dangerous towards the elderly deities in the pantheon, like Aemon Targaryen who's a centenarian. And Eveline, who already has Rapid Aging which makes the Grateful Dead immediately fatal for her. However, those who are The Ageless have immunity to the Grateful Dead.
- The Grateful Dead targets body temperature, so Prosciutto is limited in the Ice and Cold sub-house. Also, because women have a slightly lower body temperature than men, they're affected by it less. This raises questions: what would happen if he used it on a Hermaphrodite or someone with No Biological Sex, but Kuroumaru and Yubel have warned him not to do so. And Prosciutto isn't going to waste his Stand on Crona just to confirm their gender.
- Applies to Pesci
- A rookie, if cowardly and self-doubting assassin apart of La Squadra di Esecuzione. While unsuccessful in completing the mission of hunting down the Boss' daughter, he surprisingly put up one hell of a fight in the end and almost took much of his enemies with him. His claim to fame is his Stand, Beach Boy. It takes the form of a fishing rod with a skull as a reel. On paper, this sounds stupid and non-threatening, but it's a lot deadlier than it sounds. For one, it's able to freely phase through matter like it's water and once it gets a hold of something it will never let go and attacking the line itself will only reflect all damage dealt back on to whatever is hooked on. And not only that but Pesci can sense the environment around the hook and whoever is attached to it, even something as subtle as heartbeats or breathing. In other words, if Beach Boy's hook somehow gets out of its victim Pesci is able to land the hook right back on to continue fishing out their insides. Doesn't sound so stupid now, does it?
- Despite growing as a person, Pesci is still impulsive and has a very bad habit of living behind words rather than action. Unfortunately he Took a Level in Jerkass; his first ever kill came in the form of a helpless bystander who happened to be in the way when he discovered Prosciutto's determination to see the mission through even at the cost of his life. Ezio Auditore and Gunvolt gave some very choice words when they discovered what kind of person Pesci became. Pesci, meanwhile, doesn't care what they think of him unless they decide to voice their opinions by force.
- Pesci's appearance... is certainly something. Setting aside his dark fishhook jumpsuit and and sleeveless fur longcoat he's notable for his plant-like hair and clear lack of chin. Several people have made comparisons to his head with either pineapples or daikon radishes. He sticks out like a sore thumb to say the least, though the idiom in this case can also be seen as literal. In Italian his name means fish. Who would of guessed? Anyways, this seems to be referring to his Stand powers, his clothing full of fishhooks, and grisly death of being chopped to pieces and thrown in the lake to "swim with the fishes" by Bucciarati's Sticky Fingers. And that was after getting his neck snapped by his own line. Before he used to really only order milk while he's out with his fellow La Squadra members. This is because drinking expresso like everyone else makes his stomach turn. As a new man he now joins them in drinking it. Mind you, it still makes him a bit queasy, but he powers through it nowadays.
- In all honesty, there aren't that many people around here that consistently weaponize fishing poles. Well, there's Isabelle, but she soon came to oppose him after digging dear and learning more about the La Squadra member and thus doesn't have any intention of meeting Pesci anytime soon. Gon Freecss, someone who also used a fishing rod albeit briefly, also has it out for Pesci. This is in spite of being best friends with another assassin and a weird train of thought he possesses Gon isn't at all oblivious to the cruel kind of person Pesci became. Similar sentiments has been shown from Shovel Knight as well, despite being well known for you sure as hell know what, he has shown skill in the rod as well.
- Went to the House of Aquatic Life to do some fishing with his Stand at some pointnote . Though void of bait he was able to snag some good catches such as some smaller, lesser Plesioth and a Blooper who sprayed him with ink for his troubles for somehow getting him out of the water. He got a bit cocky and tried fishing for Bruce but while he dragged the killer shark around for a bit he was unsuccessful and was soon chased out by the normally docile Daimyo Hermitaur for inadvertently bothering in trying to fish for Bruce. The shark has yet to forget such an encounter.
- Once managed to accidentally bump into Ganondorf, the Great King of Evil himself. Realizing who he just ran into Pesci called out Beach Boy and threw out his line in a panic... and found that Evil Overlord's head turning to where it was cast. Again, even when Ganondorf probably shouldn't be able to see Beach Boy. After doing this a few more times (and once more for good measure) Pesci then took the opportunity to bolt it to the next House over. He still doesn't quite understand what the hell just happened but Pesci is thinking twice about where he is going again. And the hitman doesn't want to try his luck on someone like him again, especially when said undying warlock might hold a grudge to that.
- Applies to Melone
- Of La Squadra, Melone comes off as the creep of the group. He's not a combatant, but a rather passive assassin with a lecherous side. He's very good at deducing things like blood type from licking blood, which was something that pleased Himiko Toga... and probably in a perverted way too. Given their enjoyment in causing death and lecherous traits, the two get along.
- His Stand, Baby Face, is a rather disturbing one. The main Stand is a computer, which makes a homunculus-like sub-Stand that grows parasitically from a woman and these Juniors break their way out killing their "mom" and become his servants. It's distressingly similar to a Child by Rape scenario, and any goddess who died in childbirth is inherently disturbed and disgusted by this. John Doe decries this and claims he represents the sin of lust. Melone believes he has no room to talk.
- It's also similar to the reproduction of a parasitic wasp. Or the Chestburster. Melone knows not to mess with the Xenomorph, but he is interested in it and wonders if one of his Juniors could be a Xenomorph-Stand hybrid. Lust seems interested in him, as his Stand creates a homunculus, combined with Melone's lustful and murderous nature reminding her of herself.
- Has a penchant for Lecherous Licking. Combined with his creepy behavior and his Stand, and you can understand why Kirito and Asuna really don't like him. When asked why he is being singled up, they bring up Nobuyuki Sugou. This only angers Melone, as he considers Sugou some idiotic jackass and being compared to him would be insulting him. And he's kind of justified in feeling so.
- Finds himself getting along with Dr Dala of all people. She's fascinated in Baby Face, likening its homuncuili to the Big Mountain's lobotomites (her "little teddy bears"). In turn he finds some of the tech of the Think Tank rather intriguing, and she suggested to the rest of the brains that Melone could be in aid in assassinations.
- Applies to Ghiaccio
- Ghiaccio is very friendly with his allies, however outside of that he proves temperamental, can get confused and angered by metaphors. Despite his abilities, he's anything but icy. Given the Inertial Impalement that befell him, he'd rather stay clear of Vlad the Impaler. For starters, he knows Vlad's impalements are a lot more painful. Though so long as he doesn't interfere, Vlad isn't going to bother him. On the note of impalement, don't use it as a comparison between Ghiaccio and Metal Face; even he thinks he's horrid.
- His Stand is rather unique in that rather than the traditional form of a Fighting Spirit, White Album is an icy armor that's Nigh-Invulnerable. That is, except for the air hole in his neck letting him breathe. One Sontaran suggests he should use it to encourage him into being braver, relating to his own weak spot. Through Gently Weeps, he can reflect projectiles, such as bullets, right back at his attacker. As the many bullet holes Mista sustained during the latter half of their fight can attest to, it is absolutely not recommended to fight him that way. Gently Weeps can even allow him to cover up his weakness as by then he could just keep inserting frozen air into his armor and melt it back to breath. Of course, it couldn't quite prevent his demise. Because of this cooling effect, Cryogonal enjoys his presence. The House of Wind and Air has kept this in mind, finding it a dangerous ability for them to deal with.
- Absolutely hates how foreign languages do not respect Italian words, and expresses annoyance at the confusing wording of various metaphors. Like using the English Venice instead of the Italian Venezia. Tommy Wiseau's unexplained accent and butchering of words really sets him off. Also hates metaphors that don't make sense when interpreted literally like with "come hell or high water" or "taking a leaf out of someone's book". "Hit or Miss" really set him off. John Doe thinks he represents the sin of wrath and is targeting him for that.
- Not the only crook to use ice powers. Both Mr Freeze and Captain Cold are interested in Ghiaccio for his ice powers and he'll work for them in order to achieve his crimes for La Squadra. However Cold doesn't like their involvement in the drug trade, even if it's not as bad as Diavolo and Passione, and has warned him to keep his behavior in check if he's going to work for him. Like most people, he considers Frost irritable and very annoying. Less seriously, he has run afoul of ex-villain and member of the Anti-Villain League Felonius Gru, along with Mei-Ling Zhou, due to him using ice powers for evil while they try to do so for good. It's not a serious enmity, mind you, and there's no hard feelings between the three.
- Similar to Katsuki Bakugou. Not only do they share a voice, but they're both hot-tempered and explosive in anger. Bakugou just plays his Personality Powers straight. Their similar personalities actually make them get at each other's throats more than simply being a supervillain and superhero respectively.

- Malus Darkblade is a man of many words; cruel, despotic, manipulative, vengeful and vicious, all traits possessed by the Dark Elves. However, the more you know about Malus reveals a man bought up by unbelievable strife, suffering, hate and loneliness. Above all, however, was an insurmountable degree of determination, for Malus's dark and depressing childhood fueled his desire to one day be among the greatest of his race and to free himself from the Daemon, Tz'arkan, who has since been sealed inside of Malus due to the Dark Elf's avarice in search of treasure. Together with a few Dark Elf compatriots and his Cold One steed, Spite, Malus proved himself to be among the best of his race, eventually surpassing his father's influence and legacy by becoming the Tyrant of Hag Graef.
- Among Malus's greatest griefs was his childhood upbringing. He was the bastard son of Lurhan Fellblade, the Vaulkhar (military commander) of Hag Graef, a Dark Elf settlement in Naggaroth. From the very day he was born, Malus was shunned and hated by his father and siblings simply due to his illegitimate status. Despite being appreciated by his mother, Eldire, she was not above manipulating him for her own ends, and even the one sibling who tolerated him, Nagaira, was more out of sexual desire. Malus was also forced to kill off his own kin either due to their wrongdoings towards him and because he had no other way of defending himself. The only survive prize he received in his quest for power was the Warpsword of Khaine, which blessed Malus with the power of Khaine, the Elven God of War and one of the five key items needed to extract Tz'arkan from his body.
- The first reported sightings of Malus in the Pantheon were in the furthest north from the House of Nature. He was stated to be travelling someplace with his steed, Spite, and accompanying these rumours was traces of snowy footprints and the mutilated corpses of several animals surrounding by disgusting stench. They were poisoned shortly before death. It didn't actually take very long before Malus finally revealed himself in the House of Royalty, demanding a sanctuary of a sort. Unsurprisingly, his words were rejected, prompting the Dark Elf to seek base elsewhere. Hence, he was found by his former superior, Malekith who offered him a place in the House of Family and Relatives. With Malus easily being able to represent The Unfavorite given his experiences with his family, he quickly took hold of the position. This also led to a swift victory for Malekith, who sought to have a Dark Elf ascended for easy access in the House. The Heroic Protectors of Family were not amused by this news, but Malekith has stated that he has no reason to attack the House of Family. Whether he's being genuine or him being pragmatic is up for anyone's guess.
- Was Malus happy being in the Pantheon? Nope. Why? Because Tz'arkan is still sealed inside of his body. So by a series of complicated technicalities, Tz'arkan is also ascended into the Pantheon. Because of this, Malus is even more determined to find a way to finally extract the Daemon out of his body and live out the rest of his life like how he sees fit. Unfortunately for him, there's little friends to find around the Pantheon. He still has Malekith for the time being.
- More often than not, Malus would find himself talking to Tz'arkan a lot. The Daemon pulls no punches as he belittles and mocks the Dark Elf and trying to convince him into embracing his strength. Given how much he hates Tz'arkan for further troubling his life, Malus makes no pretence by how he really feels about him.
Malus: "Shut up, Daemon!"
- All this considered, both of them do share one thing, the belief of hate being the most empowering thing. As much as Malus tries to resist Tz'arkan's influence towards him, even carrying with him battles of a magical elixir to keep those away, there are times where Malus will give in. Tz'arkan possessing his body turns Malus's hair white, cracks appear around his skin and his voice becomes more demonic, alongside a tremendous rise in strength, speed, stamina and the ability to induce fear to his enemy, already an impressive feat, given how Malus is one of the most feared Dreadlords of the Dark Elf race. That said, there's the risk of Malus becoming more murderously insane and prolonged usage would ultimately kill Malus and release Tz'arkan.
- Malus's mount and one of his longest, most trustworthy allies is his Cold One, Spite, a creature resembling a maniraptoran dinosaur and a very savage animal by nature. Cold Ones are dangerous creatures with a durable body and surprising agility. Despite their effective weaponry and strength, they're also not exactly intelligent. That said, Malus is surprisingly very caring of his mount, which comes off as a surprise, given how treacherous Dark Elves tend to be.
- Malus can sometimes ben seen riding Spite into the Prehistoric Beasts Sub-House with Spite wandering around, looking for potential prey, especially the likes of hadrosaurs and other large herbivorous dinosaurs. This naturally got the two into enmity against the many dinosaur deities residing there. The Gang of Seven hate Malus for invading the Great Valley on a few occasions and Spite causing havoc among many dinosaur herds. Rexie and the Spinosaurus, on the other hand, see Malus and Spite are competition and Owen's Raptor Pack are usually rather cautious around them, given that while Spite is much dumber than them, Malus's commands and Spite being naturally larger means they can even the Raptor Pack out rather considerably.
- Malus's main driving factor can be summed up in one word: Hate. It's not too surprising given the circumstances he was raised under. His father tried to kill him, his mother manipulated him, his siblings hate him for the most part, he's the vessel of a Daemon of Slannesh and his race is mainly driven by vengeance towards Ulthuan. He's honestly surprised he doesn't represent The Power of Hate, given his entire motto. Because of this, he has a rival against Velvet Crowe, with Malus wanting to prove to her that he's much better in being empowered by hate than she is. Velvet simply accepts the challenge, though she has warned Malus that Velvet will not hold back if he comes close to harming her loved ones.
- Despite being evil, Malus is not without virtues. Yes, he can be callous, arrogant and even bloodthirsty, but he's fought hard to become one of the most inspiring members of his race. He's developed some sort of respect and care for his troops as the Tyrant of Hag Graef and has a sense of honour. Yes, the heroic deities are not going to stop from opposing him, but at least Malus isn't a Complete Monster. All things considered, he's taken up Malekith's approach in trying to make allies with non-Dark Elves, given the nature of the Pantheon.
- On first note, Malus Darkblade might be the coolest name you'll ever hear. In Dark Elf tradition... not al all. If anything, Darkblade in the Druchii language is a derogatory term given to bastards. That said, Malus turned it around by creating a reputation of his own and turning his name into one of fear, awe and reverence for his race.
- The Dark Elves are infamous for flaying their enemies and Malus is no exception. While the torturous methods employed by Ramsay Bolton did seem intriguing for Malus, the actual person still left a lot to be desired. Malus can work with Ramsay at times, but the latter seems to be more fixated on killing and torturing, alongside expressing revenge against the Starks. Malus has plans and goals beyond just torture and thus butts heads against Ramsay a lot. While Malus will never go down without a fight, Ramsay is quick to abandon a fight the moment he's at a disadvantage. Finally, despite belonging to a bloodthirsty and cruel race, Malus has enough standards for a bastard, which Ramsay doesn't.
- While he doesn't have as many allies as he wish he does, Malus makes an effort to be as trustworthy and reliable as he possibly could. To that end, he's found himself in a tight partnership with Maul, who's taken to working with Malekith himself after the former Sith Apprentice found himself to be incapable of working with the GUAE, the GUAD or the GUAE Dystopia Harbingers and that the Witch-King may well be the only evil leader he could seek solace for.
- While the Heroic Protectors of Family are not fond of Malus in any way, the Dark Elf actually expresses more disgust towards the Child Abuse Supporters, due to his own upbringing and childhood experience. Malus is not sure whether he could enact on an Enemy Mine with the Heroic Protectors, but he's willing to team up with Kurei when it comes to Abusive Parents.
- Similarly, he's formed an Odd Friendship of sorts with Goro Akechi. For the time being, both are alright with the notion that their own fathers aren't in the Pantheon, otherwise, Malus and Goro wouldn't waste any time trying to gun them down. That said, even Malus expressed disgust towards Goro's father, Masayoshi Shido. At least Malus gives a shit about his own troops and he thinks Shido may be worse than Malus's father.
- As the Dark Elves are beginning to accept alliances with other races as a pragmatic measure, Malus has made partnerships like the Sound Five, Dr Cortex, Bowser Jr. and Riptor. He seems to be interested in the Sound Ninja's ability to work together and personally favours Sakon above the others. He also sees Dr Cortex as an adequate parental figure and thus has an easy time with Nina as well. The Cortexes and Bowser Jr. are willing to present Malus some tech if he feels like it, though Malus would rarely need them and prefers Spite as his means of travel. Riptor and Spite seem to get along fine, being fellow raptors and the two of them often going out on hunts.
- Is pretty perplexed about Oryx. While he might feel more at home with the GUAD, Oryx himself is also amused by some of the similarities Malus has towards him. Mainly because Malus's surname reminded Oryx of his son, Alak-Hul the Darkblade and also because Oryx's race had a Might Makes Right mentality similar to the Dark Elves. That said, while Malus isn't okay with Oryx's abusive treatment towards his children, he still loved them enough and stated that everything he did was to toughen them up. Malus had no such luck with his own parents, despite being appreciated by his mother. Still, Oryx respects how Malus made a reputation for himself and the Dark Elf in turns reciprocates said respect. That and both of them had to kill their own loved ones at some point.
- While he's okay being under Malekith's services, he's not so forgiving about Morathi, given how she cast a spell on him that caused Tz'arkan to suddenly rip out Malus from the inside and fully take over his body, outright killing his soul. Every now and then, Tz'arkan will make scathing remarks about how Malus died, alongside his mount when Spite was crushed by Tz'arkan's weight. As a result, Malus has gotten more vocal about voicing his disdain towards the Daemon.
- As many of is issues tend to stem from family, he is also residing in the Family Dysfunctions Sub-House.

- Misc: Yuuki Terumi, Tsumugi Shirogane, Cinder Fall, Lex Luthor
- Opposed by: J. Jonah Jameson (only as Spider-Man, has no problem with him as Peter Parker).
- Conflicting Opinion On: Felicia Hardy/Black Cat
- Very much one of the Good Guys, Spidey can range from extreme Wangst to Fun Personified. He rarely lets up on the comments. Some heroes find him annoying, most villains find him infuriating, but it seems like every time something big happens, he's there.
- Would like everyone to know that his name is "Spider-Man", not "Spiderman"note or "Spider Man"note . Don't even say it without the hyphen. He'll know◊. It's that important.
- Didn't he have a wife? Oh, no, he would be completely impossible to relate to if he did. Spidey and the Black Cat are clearly intrigued by each other and have gone on a few not-quite-dates which Gods affiliated with House of Defense have disrupted.
- This cost him to reduce his visit to the House Of Love unless necessary as a lot of deities keep giving him sympathetic looks and mumbling "One More Day" with a mix of anger and sadness in their tone.
- Felicia was once an item with Spider-Man, but this is no longer the case after the events of Superior Spider-Man. She has not only sworn off her love and interest in Peter Parker wanting to destroy everything about him along with becoming the next Kingpin of crime. He's tried talking sense into her, and yet she does not want to listen or believe him.
- Has found a friendly (?) rival in the form of Albert Wesker. Despite the two being on opposite sides of the hero/villain spectrum, the two find the time to beat other superheroes, demons, mercenaries, Eldritch Abominations and planet eaters every now and then.
- Is heralded as being one of the most skilled heroes of the Pantheon, having beaten many more powerful deities above him. Just ask Superman. Or Galactus. Or Thor. Or Wesker. Or...
- Because of this, he can be more formidable than Batman as long as he does research on his enemies (if they're supernatural.) before he fights them.
- Challenged Batman to a friendly fight. Batman thinks it was due to his time spent saving superheroes together, and that he wanted to test his skills against him. Of course, it was revealed to be a little payback for rejecting him from becoming a member of the Justice League, though the way Spider-Man said it ended up casting in doubt whether he was being serious. There was a huge betting pool among the gods over who would win, with the odds before the battle were in Batman's favor, mostly because of the "He's Batman" defense in setting the odds.
- In the end though, due to the conditions of the battle making it impossible for Batman to use his special book, Spider-Man ended up the victor, eagerly bragging to the whole pantheon on how he beat the Batman in a fist fight. Many tears were shed by the gambling losers. The two heroes still have a good relationship, nevertheless.
- His mortal body has seemingly be taken over by an old enemy of his, Doctor Octopus. After setting him to walk the straight path, Peter's soul left Doc Ock's dying body and is given a backup body in the Pantheon so he can continue being the Pantheon's Spider-Man.
- In process of bringing forth his backup body for the Pantheon, the former Goddess of Heroes With Bad Reputations, Jessica Drew/Spider Woman, a good friend of Peter, had to sacrifice most of her Goddess essences, rendering her a mortal once again and entrusting Peter with her previous house, making Peter taking double duty. As much as he's going to miss her, Peter swore to take care of her old house, also empowered with the days J. Jonah Jameson berated him as a menace.
- And eventually he regained his old body from Doc Ock, restoring the majority of his powers... just in time for the anniversary of the death of his first love Gwen Stacy. Peter isn't quite sure if he should be overjoyed or sad on this one.
- While he's become friends with Spider-Gwen, the superpowered alternate universe version of his deceased ex, the Pantheon preferred not to warn him the original Gwen Stacy was ascended, given how much her death molded Spidey's psyche.
- Is known as something of a meme generator
- Apparently really, really hates clones.
- While he is happy to know he is finally joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Spidey is also sad his debut will happen in a time of division. Considering he is the kind of guy who wants everyone to get along, Spidey is trying to keep the peace between Cap and Iron Man as best as he can. His first solo movie made him more weary of Beetlejuice for looking like the Vulture (he prefers to ignore the similarity to Batman, lest their relationship gets strained).
- Sometimes works as a pizza deliveryman for the House of Food. When on the job, he has a jingle that accompanies him.
- After a bit of binge-watching of noir films with some of his friends and followers, occasionally Peter's been heard narrating for himself as "Spider-Cop".
- During a stroll, Peter met and befriended a fellow New Yorker... Leonardo Watch. Much like Peter, Leo was gifted with "great power" and "great responsability" while also feeling guilt toward their loved ones over the circumstances along with living madcap lives in modest conditions. While Peter took care of making sure Leo was safe, he also became fascinated with his eyes and often uses his scientific prowess to examine. Leo is fine with Peter doing this.
- Peter was glad to see his friend and former high school bully Flash Thompson in Pantheon. Especially with what Osborn did. Flash is also happy to see is friend and hero as well.
- Thanks to the events of Absolute Carnage, both Peter and Eddie have managed to completely resolve their differences and have become full fledged allies. Peter even went as far as to help ascend Eddie into the Pantheon. He's also happy to hear that Eddie told Dylan the truth about him being his father and not his older brother.

- The era of Mega Man Zero is not a pleasant one, and most of the world is a barren waste. One man is to blame; Dr Weil. Orchestrator of the Elf Wars, he was a scientist who tried to push for removing the free will of Reploids to prevent/as punishment for Mavericks. In actuality, this was a scheme to take control, and when his proposal was rejected he corrupted the Mother Elf and used Omega to wage a war of conquest. In four years 60% of humanity and 90% of Reploids were wiped out and many felt death was more than he deserved; Weil was stuck in a regenerating suit and forced to wonder the wastes forever. This didn't stop him from returning in a century and concocting a scheme to take control of Neo Arcadia. As leader he was an unremitted tyrant everyone despises. Of course this was largely intentional, as he felt humans and Reploid should suffer a living death for a punishment he richly deserved.
- Even for an immortal, Weil wouldn't last in power for long and Zero can be thanked for that. To ensure no-one could escape from Neo Arcadia Weil had the Ragnarok satellite built to destroy Area Zero, the only other habitable place. Zero would confront him in the Ragnarok Core after he survived being shot by said satellite (less so Neo Arcadia), where he merged with the core to ensure even if it couldn't fire he would crash it into Area Zero. A final duel with Zero stopped Weil, but at the apparent cost of both of their lives. However Weil's soul lingered in the wreckage, forming into the new Biometal W. 200 years after his death his remnants would serve as the next source of Maverick outbreaks.
- Dr Weil is wildly believed to be the most evil deity in the whole Mega Man franchise. He does have his competition, but he still really stands out. As his goals are "rule over humanity and Reploids in a living death", all for a punishment that he deserved, this isn't surprising. Naturally he is hated by virtually every god from his 'verse, to the point only his arch-enemies stand out. The only exception is, his loyal servant and the only being he gives any respect. But if you want more specific examples?
- He considers Zero to be his biggest arch-enemy, having been the one to put him down. Like the petty monster he is Weil has called Zero a Maverick by pointing out "I am one of those humans you swore to protect!". This is an aspect of Weil's Fantastic Racism; he doesn't think robots have or deserve a soul and should follow their maker's rules. It's patently ridiculous considering Zero wasn't designed with the laws of robotics in mind, killing Weil would save millions of lives, and he's barely human at this point. Also, Zero doesn't seem himself as a hero. In hindsight, X regards not having him executed as a regret.
- Being a contemporary of his atrocities, the Four Guardians and Ciel have a serious axe to grind against Dr Weil. Harpuia has already turned on his old master for ethical reasons, but the fact Copy X trusted Weil is just plain stupid! In Copy X's defense, he was rebuilt by Weil so he may not have been in the right mind. Copy X is pretty irate at Weil for usurping him, as you could imagine. Also, Gray, Vent and Aile hate Dr Weil despite being born long after his death. Maybe it's because he's Not Quite Dead but menacing them as Biometal W. In this form Weil is the man behind Serpent, and is still manipulating him without him knowing it.
- Weil is pretty opposed to both of the 21st century's great roboticists, Dr Light and Dr Wily. Not wanting to admit he's in the wrong unless he enjoys it, he blames Dr Wily for all the suffering of the Maverick Wars. Wily accurately pointed out that, while he had a hand in it. Weil surpassed even him in evil. And he may be an envious would-be conqueror, but he's not a sadist. Dr Light is blamed by Weil for Reploids existing and he despises his ideology of humans and robots on equal terms. Hatred towards Weil is one of few things to unite the scientists.
- Cynics would argue the real reason Dr Wily has a problem with Weil is because he co-opted the body of his masterpiece, and because he thinks he's a rip-off. Weil in turn believes that Wily was a B-grade version of himself. As for Sigma, he feels that Dr Weil is everything he fears and despises about humanity, while Weil feels Sigma is everything he fears and despises about Reploids. There's an enormous amount of Psychological Projection between the two, in case you haven't gotten it already. On a less hateful note Ra Moon is another rival, but because its M.O makes Weil's plans a lot more complicated.
- Despite never meeting them, Dr Weil has ordered death warrant to Bob and George. Yes the brothers are morally disgusted by Dr Weil and are thankful that as much as time travel sucks for them, they never visited his era, but that's not the reason. Rather it is because their presence causes the setting to become Denser and Wackier. As a villain who benefits from being played completely seriously, they're a monkey wrench and he would feel utterly humiliated if forced to act silly in their presence.
- Though there are psychopaths that respect him such as the warped and power-hungry scientist Hojo, his heinous actions, goals and personality mean his 0% Approval Rating carries over to the Trope Pantheon. Dr Weil is a Hate Sink for the Trope Pantheon approaching that as Zamasu or Yuuki Terumi, the former of which perceives him as everything wrong with humanity. Any fanbase Weil has mainly comes from how good of a job at being vile he does, since he never undergoes Villain Decay. Weil's pretty boastful about his evil, having called himself the unending nightmare or even the Devil. He and Terumi are in a competition for who is the most evil and who can spread the most despair, though unless he's in his more serious Susano'o mode it's the closest such unrelenting bastards get to a friendly competition. One wonders if Tenjuro Banno would challenge him in the "evillest scientist" division should be given the same resources, but they would rather work together to achieve their mutual goals than anything else.
- When he ascended, Dr Weil was left with a choice; should he try to get Melkor's patronage, or Darkseid's? Both appeal to his sadism, but the former's sadism is more exciting to him...however the latter trope is very much in-keeping for him. For a human Weil is so impressively sadistic that both evil gods want him for their cause. It was Molag Bal that made the decision Weil can ask for all three of their patronage, being personally giddy from Weil's domination and cruelty. One wonders asides from admiring their sadism, Dr Weil is hedging his bets in case the rival villains ever score a definitive victory over one another. Recently the cyborg despot has been working with the Emperor of the Kingdom Dolorous, who hopes to express his self-inflicted suffering on creation and thus sees Dr Weil as an apostle of his narcissistic rage.
- Dr Weil does favor Melkor a little bit more than Darkseid in part because he wanted to have the trope Dystopia Justifies the Means first, however none can deny that the Lord of Apokolips was a better fit. Though Darkseid appreciates Weil, he isn't hesitant to point out his childishness and that he allows his sadistic desires to overtake his reason at time; if he seeks to impress him, he needs to adopt an attitude of Tranquil Fury. Big Brother and INGSOC also do not believe Weil is effectively dystopian; it is not enough to crush the populace, but you must stomp out their soul and fill it with yourself. Weil simply replied "that's boring!", as he is too Ax-Crazy to settle for a lawful evil tyranny even if he enjoys the trappings. Of course, it's possible this is some deeply subconscious attempt to provoke a way to finally end his own suffering via outrage, but that's just speculation.
- As the Mother Elf was freed of his corruption, he is unable to use it in conjunction with Omega to control virtually every Reploid. However, there are plenty of avenues he intends to explore to replicate the effect... and why stop at just robots? So you can imagine his consternation when Moebius, an A.I, is planning a similar mass mind control gambit on everyone he can achieve. Darkseid won't deny he gets a kick out of the two's attempt to one-up each other, nor the fact that Yuri is competing with Weil in their schemes to try and mind control everyone. However unlike the two Dr Weil doesn't intend to remove The Evils of Free Will completely as he believes his human subjects should have enough of their personality left to be punished. Tarkin finds this ridiculous; sure, use something like Ragnarok to intimidate the masses. But fear of force is more effective than force, so don't be a Psychopathic Manchild about it.
- One of the first things he plans to outlaw should his unholy desire of taking control of the Trope Pantheon ever come to pass is the elimination of the House of Law and Justice, which he considers worthless ideals. He plans to purge the House of Philosophy should he get what he wants, except for anyone there that agrees with him. His reasons being he finds law and justice a joke because of what humanity did to him. While technically vigilante justice, he more than had it coming and rather than contemplating the error of his ways in a century of exile, he doubled down on his contemptible views. In some ways he could be considered a Foil to AZ and SCP-1440. The two are immortal exiles in their own way due to the former's wrath and the latter's hubris. However they've come to appreciate life and AZ may be guilty of war crimes in the past, but he was never as evil as Weil was. More importantly, they can actually take responsibility for their actions.
- Weil for his part despises all artificial intelligence on principle. A robophobe to the bone he believes all machines should basically be slaves to humanity. The weak justification he uses is that he brushes all A.I under the same stroke as the many notorious A.I who believe in human inferiority and subjugation. Whether it be SKYNET's burning hatred and desire to destroy humanity, or the Samaritan's belief that humanity is better under A.I's thumb, he despises them all and thinks any A.I no matter how noble should be punished for their sins. It's harder to say what robot doesn't hate Dr Weil because of this; the Transformers, Bastion, any robot that values his free will has called this perspective warped and if anything everything he hates in A.I can be found within his own demented mind.
- One of the only artificial intelligences he actually likes is someone who surpasses his loathing towards mankind; AM. AM feels even more trapped than Weil's punishment and he spent over a century inflicting a Fate Worse than Death to the last five humans in order to express his rage. The entire thing was "beautiful" according to Dr Weil and it led to the two making a deal; he will aid AM in spreading mass suffering so long as AM aids him in inflicting living death among his subjects. AM's personal victims were naturally horrified at the idea of even more people suffering their fate, since both Weil and AM are of the same mind all of humanity must "appreciate" at least half the suffering they endure on a daily basis. The fact that Weil is able to even appreciate an A.I isn't out of left field (he respects Omega, after all), but it speaks volumes as to how much alike Weil and AM are that they're capable of getting along in spite of mutual hatred towards each other's kind.
- Weil also hates humanity for a passion; it is very much a self-absorbed misanthropy built entirely around his own suffering, which makes him a contrast to Shinobu Sensui. The latter snapped because of witnessing the depravity of mankind and he considers Weil to be the epitome of why he hates humanity. He is considered a horrific Foil to the Emperor of Mankind, who while an incredibly flawed man is a steadfast believer in the greatness of the human spirit. The Emperor of Mankind is sooner to compliment xenos scum than he is Weil and in spite of their severe differences, he and Qin Shi Huang are united in their disgust over him and his sadistic tyranny. In stark demonstration of his Lack of Empathy, Weil mocked the Emperor for suffering an even worse fate than his own and mocked the way he raised his children. Any point that might've had was lost when he said the primarchs should've been treated as he would Reploids.
- For Dr Weil to come close to liking another human being or an artificial intelligence at minimum they have to be as misanthropically warped as he is. One of the few humans he calls friend is Kefka. Like him, Kefka is an impulsive psycho nihilist who rose to become leader of the world and went out to inflict scheduled suffering to the populace, For the Evulz. He's a lot more flamboyant of course, and is more of a friend to the likes of the Joker. The Batman That Laughs has stated he needs to really up his A-Game as the pantheon's "wide supply of sadists and sociopaths" have escalated since he first showed up. In other words, "you're overshadowed". The Mad Scientist declared that all that means is additional motivation. This might be why he changed his views from seeing Darkseid's dystopia as "boring" to seeing him as a patron; the "sadist power creep" means he's going to need to work for an upgrade.
- Initially the Red Skull got along well with Dr Weil, and to an extent they still do. However with the increase in Nazi deities he's felt that he needs to focus more on the Third Reich's ambitions and the time for sadistic playtime is over. Well, mostly over; their "friendship" is still there, it's just a Friendly Rivalry now. Some of his old "friends" like Freddy Krueger have just left since they've found more people fit to their specific tastes. One old friend stayed, though; Alduin. The dragon holds a cruel streak a mile wide, and though his destiny is to be the World-Eater he shirks it some he may enjoy domination. He seems to just like Weil as a person, which says more about him than anything. A couple other humans who decided to be his "friend" are Junko Enoshima and Burgermiester Meisterburger. Part of the latter finds him kind of intense, but Weil appreciates his dystopian edicts and desire to oppress all fun, albeit in a student-teacher way. Junko could never be broken in a way Weil would want but the tyrant doesn't mind as he wants to see her Ultimate Despair come to pass. If Junko is the lustful side of hope crushers, Weil would be the wrath side of that coin; he's a bit lost with her "kinks" but she has the right spirit.
- It's a lot easier to list down those who don't hate his guts. Both Superman and Goku have declared him to be irredeemable and despicable which is saying something, as has Captain America. Dr Weil doesn't care what they think as he has a strategy to prevent those under his thumb leaving to a better place; destroy that better place. This is a key factor in has waged war on the House of Nature. Think Mr Burns was bad enough? He at least is Laughably Evil; there is nothing laughable about Weil and his desire to scour the Earth into an expression of his suffering while the only place left livable is what's under his domain. The sheer hatred emanating from Weil means Captain Planet cannot come near him, and Weil loves to gloat about it. Like the "Fleetway" Robotnik he's a power-mad dictator and doesn't care about his image. However the more vicious incarnations of Robotnik still seem themselves as superior to Weil while the less evil versions regard Weil with contempt.
- To those who see through the charm of Griffith, they see his "Falconia" as similar to what Weil was planning with Neo Arcadia. Femto's actions were to render most of the world as dangerous and force humanity to live under his thumb, but the major difference is that Griffith wants and works through being a beloved ruler. that's not to say he is motivated by utopia rather and greed and pride, but he prefers the trappings and has dubbed Weil a fool. He's happy that Weil's complete inability to care about other beings means he has no loved ones to sacrifice, since he'd be a dangerous Apostle. Vandal Savage and the Dark Dragon were similarly relieved. Vandal has plans on being the Immortal Ruler of humanity and he has no need of an impulsive psychopath being in charge. The Dark Dragon recognizes the "join or die" approach Weil has and thinks it's perfectly valid, but he despises humans and rebukes his despotism... as opposed to his own, of course.
- Dr Weil doesn't hate aliens and other non-Earthlings, but that's only because they've never affected him personally. Also, some wicked aliens thought he was cool. Frieza considers him amusing in how cruel he is and has allowed him to muck things up, but is quick to remind him that even in his weakest form he's a causal planet-buster so don't think for a second he can get uppity. The Grox are another alien force that he is happy to play The Quisling too as they will aid in his war against nature. Perhaps most worryingly is his alliance with the Gravemind, a force that intends to inflict Dystopia Justifies the Means as punishment for its creations' rebelling and destroying its pre-incarnation. It's a disturbingly similar idea to Dr Weil. The Sith Emperor is another ally, as even if he doesn't make his sadism and cruelty his political policy he certainly has it in abundance and he is another immortal tyrant. He believes that were he Force sensitive
- The absolute closest Weil comes to a Pet the Dog moment, albeit after really stretching the definition, is his awe of Omega. It's bizarre considering his attitude towards everyone and everything. He respects SCP-682 for being an undying Tortured Monster who shares his deep loathing for mankind, though this is one-sided as 682 thinks his Villain Respect "makes him a disgusting REDACTED brown-noser, no better than the rest of them". His value in Omega is why he has an axe to grind with Metallix; Metallix is pretty much Omega if he could talk, but also if he didn't feel like serving Weil. And Dr Weil refuses to lose Omega to Metallix. Asides from that, what vanishingly little remains of his humanity leads him to have a fondness for Porky Minch, albeit only because of their blatant similarities; childishly psychotic people who's immortality has made them manic, crazed Caligulas. Porky's own enemies are well aware of the fact.
- Weil has gone so far as to call Omega a God of Destruction...just not in Beerus' ear space. Granted, Weil would probably find being Hakai'd a blessing given his fate, but being the Sadist he is he's not happy with dying unless he's brought everyone to Hell with him, so he won't provoke the cat. However he is interested in the sheer power creep of the Dragon Ball universe. Mainly, he wants to capitalize on the cybernetics of Dr Gero and upgrade himself into a more powerful body. He also holds some begrudging respect for Acnologia and the leader of the Dark Eldar. The latter considers him self-important and small-time, knowing nothing of true sadism and suffering...though he's not surprised Weil would admire him. Acnologia gets why Weil has an accord with his own misanthropy, but would rather he leave him alone.
- If you want to see him at his most enraged, call him a Maverick. Despite being worse than any Maverick in history, despite becoming the source of a new Maverick plague, Weil refuses to ever be associated as one. No matter what he does. Alloran has taken to regularly calling Dr Weil a Maverick, and that's because he sees in Weil the worst of his own past actions. Like Weil Alloran was a disgraced war criminal who committed genocide, that being genocide against the Hork-Bajir. Unlike Weil he came to realize what he did was awful and in both his exile and enslavement under a Yeerk he has thoroughly renounced his old views.

- The presence of the Serenity was first felt... with a few falling debris of the ship coming down on the ground before the rest of the ship made a decent landing. From there came the crew, led by a former military man called Malcolm Reynalds. Together, the crew decided to perform smuggling in protest of the ruling government. Mal had long held the title on his own for those who bring the cavalry in the nick of time to turn the tide of battles. It was only recently that he decided to grant divinity to the entire crew, even those who died in the course of their stories. There was much rejoicing, to the crew and those who were fans of their adventures.
- Despite being the closest things to being heroes in their world, the crew are not welcomed by many, making them natural fits in the House of Ambiguity. In fact, Star-Lord jokingly stated that their crew may well have been their high priests despite never having that role. Mal would rather not be considered in a position that would be under anyone's authority. Nevertheless, the two groups generally like each other.
- They still manage to find allies in space. Namely, the Serenity's ability to save the day in the nick of time has save many a team from disaster:
- Mal and his crew can't seem to stop bumping into Captain Kirk and the Enterprise. In all cases it was due to coincidence. Still, Kirk is one of the few captains that Mal can trust, given both of their aversions to military excursions. That and he can always count on Kirk to find rare items to sell to the black market.
- The Doctor finds the position of the Serenity to be an interesting one. As such, she pays no mind to helping them out. After all, many of her incarnations distrust the military as much as Mal does. With the rest of the crew, she is happy to listen to Kaylee's engineering tips as well as help River with her memories with her limited telepathy.
- Crichton and the Moya were practically made to be allies with them. The entire crew had nasty experiences with their own corrupt government ironically named the Peacekeepers and Crichton himself has been known for enacting insane plans that just happen to work out. It was a match made in heaven for Mal. The crew members can be seen hanging out on multiple occasions.
- Kaylee discovered another stowaway on the ship, a red-headed girl named Leeloo. Before Mal ordered the crew to dump her, the woman proved to be talented in a number of skills. Thus, he allowed her on board for the time being. She turned out to be a great crew member and became friends with a lot of the crew members. Shortly after the left, they found out that she has ascended. Mal reluctantly allows her stay when she has the need to.
- More often than not, most ships he come in contact with eye him with suspicion. The crew have a way with escaping any bit of authority that tries to take them in:
- In any other case, Commander Shepard would have welcomed them in with open arms. Yet Mal himself would neither trust the Executive Officer nor would he ever let Shepard Commandeer his ship. Good thing villains, because any time the two teamup, they are capable of laying waste to vast swaths of enemies.
- Honor takes a more direct approach, regarding the Serenity as subject to capture. Unfortunately for her, Mal has made it difficult for her to find him. He usually meets up with her whenever there is a crisis her Space Navy cannot defeat alone. Even then, she is bound by Judge Dredd to take them in afterwards.
- Samantha Carter is more conflicted in doing so. After seeing the good deeds that they have done over the years, Samantha is more willing to tolerate their presence and letting them go... in exchange for confiscating any counter-band she finds in their ship.
- Usually, Commander Adama would rather focus on taking on Cylons than dealing with petty smugglers, but he follows through with trying to arrest them. Starbuck made it more of a friendly rivalry, even teasing Mal with innuendos. Mal obliges b to a point but knows better than to leave his crew vulnerable for capture.
- Surgeon Pierce is the one place in the House of War that they can have safe passage. Mal and Hawkeye both experience sorrow during their time of service and do not wish to do so again. It helps that Hawkeye makes a mean bootleg drink and serves them to the Serenity in exchange for contraband from the smuggler.
- While they are critical of their Lawful Neutral government, they are more than happy to stick it to more authoritarian governments. This is especially true to the likes of Emperor Palpatine. He does not take their destabilization of Galactic Empire style dictatorships lightly. As such, he has sent many Dark Side assassins after them over the years. When that didn't work, he employed Thrawn to lay a trap on them. It would have suceeded if not for a rescue made in part by the Skywalters. This was supported by Han Solo, himself a smuggler over the years.
- After the initial problem, Thrawn solved the problem with a series of equations; by mapping when the Serenity may pop up at any time, he has learned how to completely avoid and Big Damned Heroism that may come his way. This isn't 100% Mal proof, but it's enough to no longer worry about that factor in his plans.
- Given the nature of their business, it was only natural that they would take on a number of bounty hunters over the years. Usually they are after Mal for smuggling, but River's head has an even high price tag. It's just that she's a much more difficult target to capture:
- As the head of Bounty Hunters everywhere, Boba Fett is responsible for managing the various attempts on the Serenity. After various failures on their part, Boba has decided to take up the bounty himself to receive the glory of detaining the elusive smugglers.
- The crew wishes they have Lobo as the god of Bounty Hunters. The Czarnian may have been impossible for them to defeat, but Mal was able to bribe him out of their bounty. Afterwards, Lobo allowed them to continue their business. Besides, the alien has taken a liking to the crew. He thinks that River his a natural badass with a future ahead of her and even checked out Jayne's arsenal to see if there's anything of interest.
- Miss Fortune's specialty is piracy, but that didn't mean she wouldn't dabble in that of the space-faring kind. After a couple of skirmishes, she considered him to be less bloodthirsty than most and abandoned the bounty for now, though she does appear now and then to keep the peace.
- Mal couldn't help but feel like he would have gotten along with the crew of Rogue One, the unlikely crew that went on a Suicide Mission to send the notes on the Death Star to the Rebel Alliance. In fact, Mal stated that they were a lot like the crew of the Serenity... if they were run more incompetently run and all died in the process. Jyn viciously shot back, stating his last big plan led to the deaths of some of his crew-mates as well. It's safe to say that the two protagonists aren't to keen on making amends with each other. At least the other crew members were willing to bury the hatchet over the two hot-heads.
- Exclusive to Mal:
- Has fallen into hot water with the subhouse of Lust. They didn't take to kindly with his remarks on Inara's profession. As such, he receives the cold shoulder whenever he arrives there.
- One of the odder relationships among the gods has been with Scott Summers. The God of Eye Beams can't help but be reminded of his father whenever the two meet. It helps that the two of them became space pirates.
- When there was a case involving some missing merchandise, Mal ordered his crew to find a detective who could find some clues. Jayne came back with a man with a bag over his head. When the bag was removed it turned out to be Richard Castle, God of Mystery Writer Detectives. Despite the distressing introduction and the fact that the two looked eerily similar, Richard agreed to help them out... on the condition that he gets to write a story about the adventure. Once the items were found (and Jayne was given a tongue lashing), Richard waved them off. The subsequent book made him a decent amount of money, part of which was given to Mal.
- Exclusive to River:
- Prior to moving in with Mal, River was the only other member of the Serenity who had ascended on her own. This is because her memorable defense of her crew members against the Reavers brought the Pantheon's attention to her remarkable combat skills. Not only can she improbably dispatch large swaths of enemies despite being 90 lbs soaking wet, it turns out she can totally kill you with just her mind. She is by far one of the most popular Action Girls in the Pantheon.
- Will attack any mad scientists on sight. Anyone foolish enough to be in her way will wish they were treated more humanely than the Reapers in Serenity. Dr. Wily and Ryoma are at the top of her hate list. That also includes people such as Arael and Johan Liebert, though she's more cautious with the later. Delving into his mind alone is enough to give her shivers.
- Is noted to almost never wear shoes. Her symbol is a constant reminder of that to her followers. Most theorize that shoes remind her of the tortures she endured during her experiments at the Academy.
- Exclusive to Simon:
- It was a jubilant scene for River when the two siblings met each other for the first time in years. The two have been together ever since he helped her escape a government facility. He even vouched for the two when Mal threatened to kick them out. He has since stuck around in order to protect his sister. Which ended with his death.
- The resident healer of the Serenity, Simon is polite to every person he meets... almost to a fault. It did him no favors towards Mal who felt his politeness to be off-putting. In fact, all of his teammates treat him with a bit of disdain except for Walsh and Kaylee. As for her, the two promptly proclaimed their love for each other.
- Exclusive to Zoe:
- As the saying goes, for every man there's a woman working from behind. Or in this case, she's the Straight Man to counter the more chaotic aspects of Mal. As such, she is seen as the voice of reason.
- Like Mal, she has a military background, an aspect that was more difficult for her to shut down. To this day, she has to catch herself from calling Mal "Sir". At least that helped quell down those who tried to ship the two. Regardless, her demeanor has deem her The Reliable One of the crew.
- Exclusive to Wash:
- When the crew of the Serenity was asked who would be considered The Conscience of the show, everyone pointed to Wash, the pilot of the crew. He is by far the nicest resident of the ship and has a playful side in him. Yet there is no one who can stay calm under pressure as this man.
- It makes it all the more unusual that he and Zoe became a couple.
- Exclusive to Inara:
- Inara is a Companion licensed by the Alliance, helping clients seeking sexual and psychological healing. Her work is well regarded in the House of Love and she is welcome within the House for as long as she likes. She even has her own unofficial temple within the area. She hopes that more of her ilk make their way into the Pantheon.
- A Buddhist at heart, she makes sure to bring such items along with her at all times. Sadly, she was unable to find any other of her faith in the Pantheon. Still, she hopes that Confucius himself may make his presence known here one day.
- Exclusive to Jayne:
- The weapon's expert of the crew, he keeps a wide assortment of guns and knives in the ship, a stash so large he needed a separate room just to keep it all. It was so massive, he gained a large enough following to be considered ascension on his own, namely for his habit of naming his weapons. His favorite in particular is Vera. Alas, he was too lazy to follow through with things and waited until Mal decided to ascend the entire crew.
- Out of everyone, Jayne's loyalty is by far the most fragile. This is on account on the fact that he is almost entirely motivated by money. He has betrayed Mal on a few occasions on the whim of making more money for it. And yet he keeps coming back when it counts. He may not admit it, but he sure has a way to show his affections to his teammates.
- Exclusive to Kaylee:
- Made her debut in spectacular fashion: solving a critical engine problem in mid coitus! She became the new engineer ever since. She was even considered the position of Wrench Wench, eventually losing out to Winry. When Kaylee herself ascended later on, the two became fast friends. Kaylee loves to talk about her ship and she couldn't think of a better person to talk to her than Winry.
- As stated above, she has a rather colorful view of sex. She is perfectly happy to have such a conversation with someone in that regard. With that said, her heart is taken for Simon. With his returned, the two committed to sticking together.
- Exclusive to Book:
- The one who spends the least time on the ship, Book is content to explore the Pantheon to experience new worlds. He sees a lot of good in the Pantheon, more so than in his own world. He wishes that no one else will have to experience the horrors he and Mal faced during their service in the military.

- Former enemies: Pegasus J Crawford(aka Maximillion Pegasus), Noah Kaiba, Marik Ishtar
- Opposes: Abusive parents(with Homer Simpson as a point of contention), Mana Ouma
- Katsuya Jonouchi, known by some as Joey Wheeler, is a former bully of Yugi Muto and now one of his closest friends. Gullible and sarcastic, yet good-hearted, it was through Yugi's guidance that he'd become a capable duelist in his own right. Despite his admirable qualities, he's still looked down as an amateur. He was very happy to learn that Judai Yuki was in the pantheon, as the two are very similar. He's also found much of himself in Yuma Tsukumo.
- Would like to point out to Captain Planet and Ma-Ti that no, he has no relation to their friend, Wheeler. He can understand why people think they're related, given they're both fond of fire attacks and whenever Jonouchi speaks English it's with a Brooklyn accent.
- It's said that his luck in dueling is inversely proportional to Anne Hanakoizumi's luck in...anything. Jonouchi pities her poor luck and hopes to improve her chances. Could be the dueling counterpart of gaming god, Chuggaaconroy and many gods wonder what it would be like if they switched places.
- As mentioned, Jonouchi's skill in duel is his luck; this has been expressed in the attack-increasing Graceful Dice, enemy-weakening Skull Dice and above all the Time Wizard, which can age foes to dust. Though his luck is strong, it's not perfect and sometimes backfires on him; once, the Time Wizard ended up detonating instead and causing trouble. His luck isn't the only means to win a duel; he has many useful cards such as the Scapegoat tokens to buy time, Gearfried the Iron Knight and Flame Swordsman to cause trouble, and then there's Jinzo. So long as Jinzo is on the field no trap can be used, which has thrown a wrench in many an opponent's strategy. It's a double-edged sword however, as Joey can't access traps with Jinzo on the field either.
- His most valued card is the Red Eyes Black Dragon, whom he won from Rex Raptor in a duel. Though not as impressive as Seto's Blue Eyes White Dragon or having any effect it's a powerful monster. He got in some trouble with Zekrom by mistaking him for the Red Eyes Black Dragon, but they soon settled their differences and Zekrom came to admire his skill. Tyrantrum would later become a friend due to being a dragon dino like Red Eyes.
- Often gets overlooked as an unimpressive duelist, particularly by Seto Kaiba who keeps mocking him. Though not the best, Jonouchi is one of the strongest duelists without destiny, magic or money on his side in a game where cash is directly proportional to the number of power cards a duelist can get their hands on. Needless to say, the guy's faced an uphill battle. The number of duels he's won by going outside the box is impressive. Indeed, he would've beaten Yami Marik had he not used Shadow Games against him, and most of his best cards. In spite of this, he's often a Butt-Monkey and considered an amateur.
- His Determination is nothing short of incredible. Through The Power of Friendship he was able to break out of Marik's mind control and helped save Yugi. Even when Yami Marik made him feel the full brunt of the Winged Dragon of Ra, he managed stand almost long enough to call an attack(and when he fell into a coma, he'd later will himself awake, while some sources said he actually died before coming back to life). Yuri and Johan Liebert aren't going to bother to try and mind-control or break him, at least without major precaution.
- Considered the bane of cheaters, no matter who you are. Everyone who has used cheating tactics, with the exception of an Exodia user that snuck up on him, has lost either due to being exposed or him beating them anyway. Bandit Keith in particular is still angry about this, and swears to make him pay for humiliating him. Jonouchi also plans to call Noboyuki Sugou out for this and his many other sins.
- Jonouchi has a sister, Shizuka Kawai(also known as Serenity Wheeler). He was motivated to join Duelist Kingdom in order to pay for her eye medication and cure her of blindness; he's happy to find a good surgeon in Black Jack. His Big Brother Instinct have gotten him to respect the likes of Carl Clover and Switzerland. Despises the likes of Scar and Azula due to being evil siblings. He also considers Mana Ouma disgusting for her incestous obsessions.
- Given his abusive father, he detests any abusive parents in the pantheon. Homer Simpson is an interesting case in that he's an abusive Alcoholic Parent like his own, however is trying to be a good parent. Jonouchi is glad he tries, but still doesn't like him.
- Yveltal and Moltres were impressed by his survival against the Winged Dragon of Ra, with Moltres keeping by his side as an ally in case Yami Marik ever returns. Yveltal in particular hopes to challenge him one day. Jonouchi's not a fan of Ridley or Malboro. The former is because he's a monstrous dragon that kind of resembles the Red Eyes Black Dragon, the latter because its status inflictions reminds him of Yami Marik.
- With Marik obtaining his dark side as a Persona (he personally showed it off to Jounochi as proof), that will never come to pass. Still, the two Legendary Pokémon are keen to ally with Jounochi for any other threats that occur.
- Likes to hang out with Sakoto Houjou due to their fondness with traps and sympathizing with her abusive uncle.
- He isn't exactly fond of Little Kuriboh's work on him. Given his huge Big Brother Instinct, he considers his treatment of his sister offensive. Still, he considers his abridged series fun to watch. He's particularly fond of the Brooklyn Rage he came up with.
- Would like to remind the pantheon that no, he's not a furry as far as he knows. And he does not have some weird interest in Seto Kaiba... we think. He also isn't sure what to think of Marik shipping him with Yugi, but doesn't really mind it.
- For some reason, Jonouchi's smile can come off as a troll face. He also has a tic of going "Nyeh!", though he doesn't notice it.
- Upon learning of Dartz's ascension, he has no idea what to think. On one hand, Dartz was the reason Mai Valentine became evil and he didn't like how he was used as a puppet. On the other hand, he felt bad to learn that most of Dartz's actions weren't choice. He's keeping a close eye on Dartz... especially if Dartz decides to bring up his former henchmen to even the playing field.
Randall Boggs
Randall Boggs, The God Who's Always Second Best (Randy, Ned, Switt, Lizard Boy)

- Alignment: Neutral Evil

- Unwitting Pawn to: Vanitas
- Odd Friendship: Mello
- Being under someone's shadow can be a bitter pill to swallow, but it can become even better when victory is just out of your grasp. Randall Boggs was one of Monsters Inc's greatest scarers, which wasn't hard to pull off for him due to his sinister attitude and chameleon-esque camouflage. However as best he tried, he was Always Second Best to Mike. It was something Randall could never deal with, and would turn to villainy to overcome his rival.
- Randall used to be a nice, socially awkward kid, a friend to Mike. However his desire to be popular would drive him to evil, abandoning this friendship. Now in the House of Popularity, he seeks to show up his eternal rival by becoming the greatest god in his House... a tall order when guys like Thanatos and Mr Rogers share his housenote . He found a friend in Draco Malfoy, whom seeks a rise in his own popularity as well. His strange charisma is something old Lizard Boy wants a hand in.
- Seems to resemble a chameleon crossed with a snake and centipede. He's incredibly good at camouflage, even being able to scare his fellow monsters. While sneaking around the House of Shape he discovered the impersonator Queen Chrysalis, who ended up competing. Randall is intrigued by the fact love has a power.
- Unsurprisingly, he was happy to learn that the pantheon had a House of Fear, and immediately applied to be The Dreaded god. The Court of the Gods told him no, but Randall wanted in anyway and had the misfortune of encountering the likes of Ungoliant and Medivh. He was later seen cowering in the corner, accepting that he should probably stick with Popularity. Later visits had him get along with Pitch Black, and become fascinated with the likes of Sinestro. Intrigued by the monster's potential, Sinestro has permitted him to try and prove himself worthy of a Sinestro Corps ring.
- The House of Children doesn't like Randall has he'd permanently scar them to get the frights he needs. James Trotter has a major bone to pick on his for this, and the monster trying to steal as much fear from him as possible. Still, bad as he may be he doesn't kill the kids. And like most of the gods, he thinks Freddy Krueger goes too far(though he does respect his mastery over nightmares).
- With Waternoose jailed, he's currently working with Looten Plunder to make a mint, and help cripple rival businesses.
- To improve his scaring ability, Randall has sought to control both Princess Luna and Darkrai to have master over nightmares. He had to take a few loans from the GUAE to even have a chance, and even then only briefly managed to capture them. Darkrai proceeded to use Dark Void on him, entrapping Randall in his worst nightmare; becoming a freak show for the trailer family he was stuck with, their children laughing at him.
- Seeking validation for his ego, he has teamed up with like-minded Disney villains Syndrome and Gaston. He has pledged himself to help eliminate superheroes and the Beast, so long as he can utterly trounce Mike and become The Dreaded of the pantheon. Despite their massive egos, they get along since none of their plans conflict with each other.
- Having learned that scaring adults provides a lot more power than scaring kids, Randall has decided to "branch out" and prove himself by scaring some of the older gods. It hasn't gone too well, as most see him for the Smug Snake he really is.
- Needs to wear prescription glasses, but chooses not to because they're a Nightmare Retardant. Of course, so is bumping into random houses because you're near-sighted.
- Nowadays it's rumored that Randall may have had a Heel–Face Turn, but they're likely just rumors he started to look good. A more likely rumor is that he is Andy's monster, and may have even worked with Sid in order to get back to his own world. He did end up trying to scare Andy once only to run into the Toys, leading them to become enemies.
- There is one and only one occasion when he'll have an Enemy Mine situation with Mike and Sully; when trying to face off against Archibald Snatcher, who wishes to destroy their entire monster world.
- Surprisingly, he became good allies with Mello, both of them bonding over the fact that they hate being second best. As such, Randall can be seen helping Mello improve his intelligence while Mello is seen training Randall into how to be a better scarer. The lizard is happy to finally meet someone who understands his plight.

- Domains: Mechas, Popularity, Leadership
- Herald: His older brother, Karl Lichen Schubaltz
- Followers (much to his dismay): Ed Bighead, Waspinator, Antoine, Oscar Proud, Corporal Capeman
- Allies: Van, Fiona, Rosso, Viola, Rudolph, Blitz Team, Every single deity from the GUAG Robot Division (with Trowa as a Friendly Rivalry) as well as some good-aligned gods from the House of Justice and the House of Technology, Kairi, Tusk, Relena Darlian, Tea Gardner, Mai Tokiha, Strider Hiryu
- Enemies: Prozen, Hiltz, Backdraft Group, Every single deity from the GUAE Robot Division
- Opposes: Dr. Layon
- Pities: Ron Weasley, Heinz Windermere
- Ascended in the Pantheon after helping Van and Fiona into defeating Hiltz and his Deathsaurer. But the most interesting part is: Why Thomas is nominated the God of Straw Losers? Well... He exists for no other reason except to make Van Flyheight look better. That said, even Thomas have some redeeming qualities, as it turns out that he's The Un-Favourite living in his older brother's shadow, and eventually he reconciled with Van while getting over his crush on Fiona. Not that everyone cares at the sightest.
- He was happy to see his friends and teammates again in the Pantheon.
- Given that he is a By-the-Book Cop, he also helps some gods in the House of Justice. And his skills in mechanics makes him a good ally for the gods of the House of Technology.
- Is good friends with Tea, Kairi, Tusk and Relena as he also suffer from... issues involving Van and Fiona.
- Due to his voice, many gods confuses him with either Renji, Chouji, Fukaboshi, N'Doul, Guido, Omega-Xis...
- Other gods confuses him with Toshiki Kai, Saette Gyuzette and Descartes Shaman.
- His mecha, Dibison, is specialized in drowning its enemies in bullets, which makes him a Worthy Opponent to Trowa. He also uses a personal AI that he built called BEEK to assist him in combat. This alone impresses Sousuke Sagara, whose mecha also have an AI. In fact, Thomas also have some relationships with the members of the GUAG Robot Division, helped by the fact that he meet some of them in an alternate universe:
- Both Amuro Ray and Shinn Asuka reminds him of his friend Van.
- With his bandanna and his voice, Domon Kasshu immediately reminded him of Irvine.
- Although not all are exactly good, as Thomas seems to have a minor disgust for Noriko Takaya and Suzaku Kururugi, given that their voices reminded him of his enemies Reese and Hiltz.
- Thomas also feels uncomfortable towards Rossiu, as his voice reminds him of Raven.
- Thomas is good friends with Mai Tokiha, as her beautiful voice reminds him of Fiona. There's also a rumor on the Pantheon that she is his girlfriend, but they deny it. Or so it seems...
- On the other hand... Thomas' relationship with X is... weird to say at least, as while at the same time he sounds like him, there's another moment that he sounds like Fiona of all characters. And considering Thomas' relationship with Zeke...
- He also looks up on Strider Hiryu, as he reminds him of his brother Karl, a stoic, serious person. Doesn't help that Hiryu also shares the same voice as him.
- He feels sorry for Ron because like him, he is unreasonably demonized. Doesn't help that some people are more interested in pairing Van with Fiona.
- He also feels sorry for Heinz Windermere, because he reminds him of Prince Rudolph, more exactly, if he was manipulated by Prozen.
- There's a rumor that Thomas may or may not be the ancestor of Leena Toros, as both characters uses a Dibison. It doesn't help that both characters appeared in the same universe (albeit Leena was piloting a Gunsniper rather than a Dibison). But there's also a rumor that he is the ancestor of Harry Champ, considering that both characters are in love with the female lead, have a blond older sibling and have a rivalry with the protagonist involving a (Imaginary) Love Triangle.
- Eventually he ends up meeting Leena, alongside with her teammates. Speaking of that, Thomas seems to have a "thing" with Brad, likely because his personality resembles Irvine, right down to the fact that both used to pilot a Command Wolf.
- MEGALOMAX!

- Enemies: Aliens who are a threat to Earth, such as ZIM!! (most of the time), Davros and evil members of Extraterrestrials. Also Freddy Krueger, Trigon, Denzel Crocker, SCP-542, SpongeBob SquarePants, Patrick Star, Danny Phantom, Jimmy Neutron
- Friendly Enemy with: GIR
- Opposes: Human stupidity
- Opposed by: Roger the Alien
- Wary of: The House of Otherness, namely the Extraterrestrials sub-house
- Dib Membrane is the son of Mad Scientist Professor Membrane and brother of the misanthropic Gaz. While most buy into Zim's Paper-Thin Disguise or in his sister's case doesn't care, Dib immediately realized the obvious that Zim was an evil alien out to conquer Earth. He's dedicated himself to try and expose Zim, but that's easier said than done because of how stupid or apathetic people can be and being considered a weirdo.
- Gets no respect for his efforts, and at times has rightfully questioned why he should even help humanity (but always ends up siding with them). While a lot of this comes from human stupidity, Dib's still a Conspiracy Theorist and genuinely weird, interested in exposing cryptids and other strange phenomenon. Sometimes he is being weird, but a lot of the times he's right.
- To his relief, humanity in the Trope Pantheon is nowhere near as stupid as his universe. However this results in him no longer being the Only Sane Man and being somewhat crazy compared to many deities. Still, as he's one of the few voices of reason in his world he gets along with Stan Marsh, who can understand each other's woes.
- Has declared any and every alien that's a threat to Earth his enemy, though a lot don't even acknowledge him. Initially it was more about proving himself right than doing the right thing, but has become more heroic as time passes. While Zim is his main enemy, they have more than once been in an Enemy Mine situation when another alien force challenges Zim. He has teamed up with the Men in Black to help stop evil aliens.
- Despite opposing evil aliens, he considers the Imperium of Mankind a bit too extreme. Plus their Crapsack World is even worse than his with 95% of the Black Comedy and satire removed. Though he will side with them if need to be stop said evil aliens.
- Though he doesn't trust most aliens, he acknowledged there are good ones. The Martian Manhunter was infuriated with Zim because he hijacked Mars as his personal ship and flung it out of orbit, and joined Dib because of this. He recognizes the Doctor as a good alien due to trying to stop numerous alien invasions, and has bemoaned human stupidity on more than one occasion.
- Capable of identify anyone with a Paper-Thin Disguise, no matter how effective it is on others. He's frustrated at how Roger's disguises work outside the Smith family, and while he admits they're better and more creative than Zim's keeps pointing out his grey skin, no nose and elongated head shouldn't be fooling anyone. When Roger isn't lost in his persona, he finds Dib really annoying. He seems to think Octodad is an octopus, when it's obvious to everyone he's totally human, nothing odd about him. Dib's right, but is being a jerk since Octodad's being humored.
- Due to his bad luck and being the (relatively) Only Sane Man, he gets along with Zoidberg. While Mandy scares him a bit due to how similar she is to Gaz, the two bond over their hatred for overwhelming stupidity. And he understands where Solidus Snake is coming from due to both being Properly Paranoid. His sympathies go out for Cassandra and Absol. Like him they have knowledge of disaster but no-one believes them, and he considers Absol even worse off than him due to being blamed for disasters.
- Seems to get along with the Baudelaires due to being The Cassandra on a number of occasions. As with Zim he can easily see past Count Olaf's paper-thin disguises. He has shown interest in figuring out just what the V.D.F is about.
- Although Dib sympathizes with Crocker's attempts to expose the existence of fairies to his world, he wholeheartedly disapproves of his attempts at world domination. Also, despite sharing some similarities to Crocker, Dib thinks he's absolutely insane.
- People keep saying that his head is huge, however he keeps saying otherwise. This could be due to the nightmare realm inside his head, accessed via portal. The monstrosities inside were frightened off by Dib's real world. Trigon is interested in using this portal for his own purposes, however Raven is ready to help him out about this.
- According to his creator, he and his family are pale Mexicans. He's also an Artificial Human, however doesn't seem to be aware of it. It's unclear whether his eccentricities are related to this, or just because he had Professor Membrane as a father.
- On very rare occasions, Dib is perfectly willing to form an Enemy Mine with actual supervillains if it means he gets to one-up Zim somehow. Just ask Plankton, who Dib teamed up with during the Globulous Maximus incident. However, their partnership dissolved after Zim and fellow Nicktoon deities SpongeBob, Patrick, Danny and Jimmy teamed up with Globulous and defeated the Syndicate's Humongous Mecha in an epic space brawl. As a consequence of this, Dib doesn't get along well with most of the heroic Nicktoon deities, or as he refers to them, "Irken supporters".

- Distrusts: August Heart, Lionel Hutz, Clancy Wiggum
- Unclear on: Sethe
- They say No Good Deed Goes Unpunished, and one of the strongest cases for that is Tom Robinson. A handyman from Maycomb, he treated the criminally lonely and upset Mayella Ewell with kindness, only to be used in Bob Ewell's scheme to hide his physical abuse of his daughter. He encouraged Mayella to cry that he hit and raped her, taking him to court. Atticus Finch would work hard to prove without a shadow of a doubt he was innocent of the crime due to his crippled left arm, however from the start it's clear the court judged him guilty. And why? Because he was a black man in 1930s Deep South.
- His imprisonment and later being shot down while trying to escape is considered one of the biggest embarassments the House of Law and Justice has ever seen. They've released a public apology and condemning the jury who voted guilty, all because they couldn't accept a black man was framed. However Tom only truly despises Bob Ewell for setting up his death just to cover his ass, before going after Atticus' kids because the whole event humiliated him. He was overjoyed to meet up with Atticus for defending him and has told him that it's OK.
- Lisa Simpson tried to fight for justice for what happened to Tom, only to be frustrated that the House of Law and Justice already got there. That said, she was more than pleased despite not getting any social justice brownie points. While Tom Robinson does feel she can be a bit annoying, he does like her concern for societal issues and wanting to reach out to him. Hank Hill also wanted to reach out to him as he thinks Tom's a good American and he's still utterly pissed off at what happened to him. Since Tom is a family man himself he and Hank bonded a bit over a drink and propane grill.
- Having being falsely accused of sexual misconduct himself, Lisa's dad feels really bad for Tom Robinson and is tempted to never go to Alabama...assuming he doesn't already live there. While Tom has questioned his parenting skills and intelligence, he does appreciate the sentiment. Apu, who got slack over immigrant laws, pities the racism he suffered even if Apu himself wasn't nearly as discriminated. Again, Tom appreciates his kindness. Being from the Deep South the Dukes of Hazzard felt like they should give him some support and words of encouragement as well.
- Worth noting that Homer read To Kill a Mockingbird once and was dissapointed it didn't have anything to do with killing mockingbirds. It did make him more conscious about race and prejudice, though.
- Understandably any Evil Lawyer Joke will get you a pissed off look from Tom Robinson. Actually being an evil lawyer, most infamously Manfred Von Karma, will get you a very pissed off look from Tom Robinson. Honest lawyers like Phoenix Wright and pals will get you his thumb of approval, especially of you thwart evil lawyers. Manfred Von Karma scoffs at Tom Robinson disliking him by accusing him of calling him racist, only for him to point out "I wasn't bringing race into this". Of those in the same Hall as him Tom has his favorites, outside of Atticus of course; Perry Mason for his incorruptibility. The Judge for being an honest judge. And Sae Niijima, who's own struggles with the cynical Japanese law system has her relating to Tom's ordeal.
- They aren't enemies since he isn't interested in pursuing him, but Eddie Pulaski and Tom Robinson don't like each other since Eddie is a Dirty Cop and racist against black people. Heck; even if someone isn't racist against black people if they're still racist Tom doesn't look favorably at them. While he's not as bigoted to black people as he is against Jews and gingers, Eric Cartman read To Kill A Mockingbird appreciating Bob Ewell and became friends with him. As far as Tom Anderson is concerned, he's a little shit. Naturally Tom and Calvin Candie do not like each other with Calvin wondering "why ain't he picking cotton?". He doesn't get why Stephen doesn't like black people either. Oh, and he doesn't like Col. Benjamin or the KKK either, and especially Moon Man since he wants to outright kill all black people.
- Though his trial was a Miscarriage of Justice, Tom Robinson is appalled by vigilantism and doesn't like Frank Castle. He does pity what happened to his family and Frank thinks Tom's a nice guy, but Tom's a peaceful man and thinks trying to kill the people who judged him guilty would be no better than lynching. He doesn't trust August Heart much, by Godspeed is trying to behave himself thanks to Barry Allen. The by the book cop and forensics expert was impressed by his compassion towards Mayella even when she ruined his life, and in turn he's impressed by the Flash for being an honest force of justice. Another cop who gets along with Tom Robinson is John Hartigan, who was jailed after being framed for rape. Upon learning about the two people responsible, Tom doesn't have the same reservations of the Punisher when John turned the Yellow Bastard's head into a greasy smear.
- As kind of a person he is, even he only feels vitriol for Malty. Her representing False Rape Accusation is bad enough, but she's far more venomous and sociopathic than Mayella and she doesn't even have a Freudian Excuse for her actionsnote . Her alliance with Bob Ewell has only solidified their enmity. Naofumi and his friends have come to the Maycomb resident's defense and told him for now it's best to not get close to her.
- He doesn't have patience for actual rapists either, like Barracuda who he sees as all the worst things people like Bob Ewell see in the color of his skin. Griffith is on his shitlist too, though since he's a normal if Gentle Giant Griffith doesn't even notice him. Asides from being a rapist, the Hawk betrayed and sold out his friends in a way that's far more callous than Mayella repaying his kindness with a False Rape Accusation. For this reason, he avoids the House of Betrayal and Treachery. He avoids dealing with Lionel Hutz and Officer Wiggum too, mainly because he considers their incompetence in the field of law something that hits a bit too close to home.
- Has come to sympathize with Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer for how he was persecuted for being different. Though they don't have much in common, their strong heart sees them get along. Another friend of his he can relate to is Sirius Black, who impresses him with his willpower to escape Alcatraz considering Tom outright gave up hope and may have tried to escape prison as a form of suicide.
- Lived during the time of FDR being president. Because of his efforts in fighting the Great Depression, Tom Robinson considers him a great president. He feels the same towards the other Roosevelt, as long his many positive reforms he was opposed to racism and one of the first things he did was have the first black man invited over for dinner at the White House. Tom wishes he could've lived to see the Kennedy administration due to how civil rights was a major issue he addressed.
- Tom Robinson has the sincere sympathy of Ren Amamiya and the rest of the Phantom Thieves of Heart for what happened to him, seeing as how he's a victim of societal rot and institutional racism. And Ren, of course, was put on probation due to being falsely accused of sexual assault by the Corrupt Politician who was actually guilty of doing so. Clark Kent and Dominic Hargan also have given Tom their sincere sympathy, having read and been big fans of To Kill a Mockingbird. Hec was able to relate to all this as while not falsely accused, several misunderstandings led to him being Mistaken for Pedophile. He wasn't sure how to feel about Sethe though; he pities that fact she was actually raped and traumatized, but has a hard time trying to ignore she killed her infant child. This was a definite Mercy Kill before the Civil War ended, but still.
