* As one of the foremost Champions and God of Humanity, the Emperor was one of the first deities to help the Master Chief fight the Flood. During the conflict, He, the Master Chief, Madoka Kaname and (much to his great reluctance) Lucifer combined powers to banish the Primordial and ensure its imprisonment outside the Pantheon. He now stands alongside the Spartan as the first line of defense against the Parasite should it ever escape from its prison.
** After the conflict, the Emperor made his thoughts on the Precursor very clear:
-->'''[[AC:These tentacle-fetish assholes are nothing if not the abominable embodiment of the [[AbusivePrecursors complete and total assholery that an ancient species can lay claim to]]. The one-time ultimate rulers of reality and evolution, they were [[NeglectfulPrecursors the shitty, neglectful grandparents of all that is life]]. Every living and non-living being in existence should let out a sigh of relief that [[PayEvilUntoEvil these assholes were hunted down and killed by their much abused creations.]]]]'''
** The danger of a Flood invasion of the Pantheon is great enough that he is even willing to [[EnemyMine join forces]] with the Chaos Gods to defeat it, as both sides agree that the Flood is a far greater threat than they are to each other.

* Eons ago, [[DivineConflict there was a war in Heaven]] by Lucifer for control of Heaven. The angel Aztar would side with him, but repent his sins and pray for redemption. The Presence answered those prayers and determined he would become a champion for justice; becoming the Spirit of Vengeance, ensuring no sinner would escape justice. He would punish all [[KarmaHoudini karma houdinis]], one man at a time, [[CruelAndUnusualDeath no matter how grisly]], [[OmniscientMoralityLicense all part of the Presence's ineffable plan]]. To keep the Spectre grounded, he would take on human hosts. The most noteworthy and current is Jim Corrigan, a 1930s detective killed by criminals. Later on, Crispus Allen would also take the role of the Spectre. In the pantheon, Hal Jordan spent time as the Spectre and tried to reshape him into the Spirit of Redemption [[TheAtoner to make up for his own actions as Parallax]]. They would discover [[DemonicPossession the true nature of Parallax]], and the Spectre would help with Hal's revival.
* At first, the Spectre assumed that YHVH was the same as Yahweh aka the Presence, his multiverse's God. He figured that [[GodIsEvil his attitude]] was some sort of SecretTestOfCharacter like the time He acted [[http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/10/104521/2126072-presence.jpg completely insane]]. It'd later turn out YHVH was ''not'' the Presence, and the Spectre was offended by the Mad God of Order's actions as God. The Spectre got along better with God in the House of Faith, but made it clear "You are not the Creator I serve". Of course, since his Creator has ascended, he defers strictly to Him.
* As the Spectre, his job is to punish evil-doers; specifically, those [[KarmaHoudini who escaped mortal judgement]]. As such while he hates the GUAE on principle, most did get their just desserts and aren't a focus; [[StoryBreakerPower which may be for the best]]. The Justice League and Justice Society of America appreciate the help, but they find him [[HorrifyingHero seriously disturbing]] and [[CruelAndUnusualDeath the sadistic punishments he performs]] go against [[ThouShaltNotKill their own moralities]]. Still, it's even worse to tell him not to kill since [[AndIMustScream he has ways around that]]. The Spectre may not have found friends with the superhero community, but he has found friendship with Nemesis and Johnny Blaze. Though the Spectre's specialty isn't punishing people for hubris, he thinks she's doing a great job. Him and Johnny Blaze have a ''lot'' in common for being spirits of vengeance. Having once served under Lucifer, Aztar's not going to complain about this.
* ''Hates'' the Godhand. Their mission statement to pervert the very concept of karma so [[NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished goodness is punished]] and [[KarmaHoudini evil is rewarded]] [[BerserkButton struck a nerve with the Spectre]]. Guts is glad to have him on his side, and the Godhand [[OhCrap are terrified]]. His views on this matter have led the Spectre to pity Ramza Beouvle greatly.
* Though ultimately a force of justice, the Spectre [[GoodIsNotNice not a nice guy]]. As in, ''[[HeroWithAnFInGood borderline villainous]]''. He possesses an astounding LackOfEmpathy and [[{{Sadist}} grim satisfaction in punishments]], only alleviated by [[AssholeVictim his victims being far more evil than he could ever be]]. It's why he's bonded to a human host in the first place; the Presence realizes he needs humanity to keep him in check. Despite his dark personality, [[OmniscientMoralityLicense he's permitted to do so because it works out in God's favor]]. Of course, that may play into why the Presence hasn't taken the burden of being the Spirit of Vengeance off of him; He needs the Spectre for a job, but cannot accept him until he learns humanity.
* It's worth noting that Aztar's not the original Spirit of Vengeance. That would belong to Eclipso, who fell to evil completely and has become the poster boy for DarkIsEvil and one of the deadliest, [[OmnicidalManiac most omnicidal]] beings in existence. No matter what you think about the Spectre, he's way better suited for the job than Eclipso. And even he thinks Robot Santa goes too far in his KnightTemplar ways.
* The House of Magic is no fan of the Spectre. When he was tricked by Eclipso into thinking magic was the source of evil, the Spectre went on a rampage without a human host to ground him, devastating the sorcerers of Earth and ''killing'' the wizard Shazam. They've warned the Spectre never to try this again, and are preparing to take him down just in case. Nowadays, the Spectre figures that Melkor is the source of evil.
** Was happy when an old Justice Society colleague of his, Kent Nelson, ascended to the pantheon as the host for Doctor Fate. When they finally met Nabu was wary of him at first, due to the fact that he himself was the final victim of the aforementioned rampage against magic. Seeing as how it was a hostless Azar that had done the deed, Fate agreed to overlook this and will work with him so long as he has a human host.
* In spite of his loyalty to the idea of Justice, both that house and the House of Crime is keeping their eye on Aztar. He has a bad tendency to declare that AllCrimesAreEqual. Mercifully for reality, it's not to the extent of [[OmnicidalManiac the Dark Judges]]. At the very least, he and the Living Tribunal get along due to having previously teamed up to protect their respective universes. The Presence Himself had to warn the Spectre to never interfere with the Warhammer 40000 universe. The sheer [[CrapsackWorld grimdarkness]] and evil of that universe would drive him completely insane.
* There are a number of supervillains out there whom the Spectre has tried to judge, only to be hit by TheWorfEffect. He tried to judge Darkseid, however, the BalanceBetweenGoodAndEvil made it futile. Darkseid would later have his followers humiliate him in [[ComicBook/{{FinalCrisis}} his fall from Heaven]]. The Spectre also tried to judge Nekron after Nekron made him a Black Lantern, however as he was TheSoulless it didn't work. The Spectre still wishes to make them pay for their massive amounts of sins. The Spectre also isn't permitted to judge [[Pantheon/{{Laughter}} the Joker]] or Vandal Savage. The Joker, being criminally insane, can't be judged for his actions. Vandal, however, has the Mark of Cain, so he is already punished. The Spectre finds this outrageous, and Vandal has taken advantage of this. Also, he's unclear as what to do with [[Pantheon/MindGames Kirei Kotomime]] due to getting his just desserts but being revived.
* Despite TheWorfEffect getting the best of him, the Spectre has managed to fight against a fair number of [[EldritchAbomination eldritch beings]]. Such as the time he wrestled with the Anti-Monitor at the dawn of time, preventing him from subverting creation. Whenever the Anti-Monitor tries to attack the Pantheon, he's the first to get at him.
* Naturally, the Spectre spends time in the Houses of Pantheon/{{Angels}} and Pantheon/{{Ghosts}}. Many angels find him creepy, even the powerful Archangel Michael and Manwe. Sure, as a force of justice and loyalty to God he's on their side, but they don't like his NominalHero nature. Michael, in particular, feels he reminds him of [[KnightTemplar his more ruthless days]], and Aztar has stated that he's not the same Michael as the one from his multiverse. The House of Ghosts are for the most part scared of him and would rather he stay away.
* Naturally, the Spectre's no fan of Lucifer, however, does admit he's better than YHVH. Or the Castlevania, for that matter. The SMT one, however, the Spectre's oddly amiable with. He can get behind his desire for judgement and justice but believes he needs to abandon YHVH completely to be worthy of justice. Doesn't like DemonicPossession, due to his experiences with Asmodel hijacking him and Parallax getting bonded with him. [[spoiler:Or the time Mxyzptlk took over him.]]
* Heavily disapproves of the destructive Galactus and Beerus for all they've done, however, they were quick to point out despite their "villainy" they serve a higher purpose. [[NotSoDifferent Much like The Spectre, really]]. The Spectre seems to be more accepting of Eliphas. Often hangs out in the House of Vengeance. As a vengeful spirit, he treats Hisako as a "little niece" of sorts.
* Due to his own experience fighting [[TheAntiGod the Great Evil Beast]], the Spectre worries about the PrimordialChaos. Particularly concerned with Amatsu-Mikaboshi, who comes off as an even worse version of Nekron to him.

* Interested in: [[Pantheon/LightAndBrightness Necrozma]]
* Conflicting Opinion: [[Pantheon/{{Angels}} Imperius]]
* Today was quiet one with the air a still and frigid chill even with the sun in the middle of the sky. Yet all would not be quite well for long on this fine, fine day. It was at this time the Pantheon/{{GUAE}} had secretly set up a large encampment somewhere off in the House of Pantheon/{{Nature}}. A dispatch team from the Pantheon/{{GUAG}} eventually got word and were sent to scout out such a place, though they could never of anticipated what happens next. Beings and creatures like the Terraformars and "Hunter" Series [=BOWs=] have suddenly appeared out of the blue to assault the place, yet something is off about them. They aren't hostile to them and made way to the encampment, seemingly driven by an unknown single-minded purpose through it all. Patches of their bodies glow a golden hue, their eyes an amber yellow, their clustered veins now opaque by it all. Accompanying them are figures covered head to toe in golden armor, some utilizing powers of electricity and the spectra of light itself. As these mysterious forces drove out the GUAE in numberless hordes the base was soon assaulted by lightning from the sky before soon being buried by roots.
** The team bore witness to the entire thing, even as the forces disappeared quick as they came, and were left speechless. Soon after trying to process what just happened a voice from above spoke to them. The voice revealed herself as the Daedric Prince, Meridia, and admitted responsibility to the base's annihilation as well as tipping the GUAG off of such a movement. "But for what purpose?" They asked, and Meridia responded that it was a way to reveal herself. She cited that they intended to practice actions most profane on the House and opted to stop their defilement. The GUAG's presence here serve as additional witnesses to her entrance to the Pantheon, which they were. The same also goes for them seeing the sheer collateral damage wrought by her attack.
* An unusual member among the many Daedric Princes, Meridia did not actually start out as one herself. Once, there was a time in which she was better known as Merid-Nunda, a Magne-Ge or Star-Orphan. As a Child of Magnus she joined with him in [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere fleeing from partaking in the creation of Nirn]] to Aetherius when he realized the sheer cost of such a project. Merid-Nunda, however, [[AllOfTheOtherReindeer would at some point be cast out from Aetherius for consulting with "illicit spectra"]] and when the Daedra chided her for trespassing in Oblivion she willed a realm of her own thus and out of necessity she took on the mantle of Daedric Prince for herself. This once-Magna-Ge would be now from then on as Meridia, and the mortal races of Nirn will know of her light. The Pantheon, too, will bear witness the same having ascended under the domain of WhatIsOneMansLifeInComparison, of which she is a thoroughly believer in. If people, even including her own loyal followers, have to perish to achieve what she views as a greater good then so be it.
* If there's one fact that's very well known about Meridia would be her absolute hatred of undeath itself. Be it from the dead that walk once more to those who actively practice in such a thing Meridia will see to it that they be destroyed. It is why she is one of Molag Bal's {{Arch Enem|y}}ies as the Lord of Brutality was responsible for the conception of undeath itself, among many other things. This belief of hers persists in the Pantheon, declaring herself to any of the undead and necromancers present and vowing to see the House of Pantheon/{{Undead}} be obliterated someday. Theories arose in that the House's existence may of drawn Meridia to the Pantheon in the first place. There stands two individuals at the pinnacle of such animosity, Nekron and Nagash, for not only their actions in their home universes but also the ones done to spite her. Galakrond is also quite high on that list, being a dragon returned to the living and who's sheer gluttony has him devour just about anything, his victims themselves turning into undead. A force of nature, so to speak. The tipping point came when after when in one of his rampages he demolished an entire temple dedicated to her. Meridia, [[TranquilFury very calmly]], assaulted him with a {{Pillar Of Light}} aimed straight at [[EyeScream the Ur-Dragon's eyes]]. She only ceased when other Overdeities stepped in to drive him off and stop her wrath, concerned that she'll take out her anger on the surroundings as well and escalating the damages.
--> ''The undead are foul, unnatural things. Some of my rivals take pleasure in these abominations. Not Meridia. I wish these creatures destroyed.''
** We could not stress the ''absolute'' part of her hatred towards undead enough. Meridia is [[KnightTemplar indiscriminate]] in her drive to wipe them off the face of the world itself. It matters not if they aren't evil or have done a lot of good things in the end like with [[Pantheon/ConquestAndConquerors Talion]] or [[Pantheon/FacialAttributes Squigly]] nor does it matter if they are only partially so like if they are a {{Dhampyr}}. She even scoffs at the existence of [[Pantheon/{{Destinies}} The Guardians]], viewing them as mere puppets brought from their tombs by their so-called light.
** It also comes as a given that she is a fierce opponent to the entire House of Pantheon/DarknessAndShadow along with any deity associated with the shade. As far as Meridia is concerned, [[TautologicalTemplar the "good" ones are too afraid to walk with her in the light]].
* Her hatred of the unliving, along with her [[DivinelyAppearingDemons divinely depictions and presence]] and acting as the BigGood during [[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsOnline Molag Bal's Planemeld]] often leads to attributions that she is a "benevolent" Daedric Prince by many. This is a very big mistake and you should ''not'' mistake her actions or her words as genuine altruism. What good she does is simply a consequence of her self-interests. This is the same Daedric Prince who had zero problems supporting her Ayleid followers, a race who were notorious for their cruelty to humanity of which they enslaved. The most notable of her assistance to them would be [[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsIVOblivion the time she gave help to Umaril the Unfeathered]], saving his life where upon he would come back to try and [[RageAgainstTheHeavens overthrow the Nine Divines]] in revenge for the Wild Elves' downfall. To say nothing of her tendency to manipulate people and sacrifice them and her tendencies to inflict DisproportionateRetribution if displeased or crossed.
** It for this reason that, after the GUAG reported Meridia's entrance in the Pantheon, Cosmos and by extension many in the GUAG would rather not associate themselves with the Lady of Infinite Energies and as such frequently butt heads with eachother should the situation allow them to cross paths. Cosmos and the Alliance are firmly for prioritizing all life whereas Meridia would only look out for the select few. And the few are perfectly liable to be culled if she deems it necessary in some way, shape, or form. Both Cosmos and Meridia have since been common opponents of one another.
* In a bid to gather up allies to counter the ones Molag Bal had formed in the Pantheon alongside other entities and beings she deemed despicable, Meridia had manifested her to other entities in a bid to form an alliance of her own. Her first outing was... not quite successful, to say the least. While she had seen success in enticing Galeem after appealing to his perpetual conflict with Dharkon and sympathizing with it along with the Angels of Paradiso having no problem in following the Daedric Prince, her meeting YHVH went considerably less well. The two ended up being bothered by each-other more than anything else in the end. The Light of Destruction, due to its desire for the destruction of all things, was more so that and the relationship with it was even more strained with Meridia stating it's as simple-minded as [[BigRedDevil Mehrunes Dagon]]. They're on somewhat better terms [[AGodAmI when it's seeking to be worshiped as a deity]] though not by much. And The Radiance immediately began on bad terms as she is paranoid that Meridia's presence is yet another way in which she will eventually be eclipsed and forgotten. Not helping things was the Glister Witch's response to that which to this day has stuck with the infection that once plagued Hallownest:
--> ''Save yourself your delusions. A campfire could never hope to outshine a star, much less the break of dawn.''
** Her presence was not well received in the House of Pantheon/LightAndBrightness received either. Setting aside her willingness to ally with the Light of Destruction, just about everyone in that House were put off by Meridia's demeanor and though Ezalor, being the head of the sub-House itself, does try to keep her at bay it is undeniable she has a stake there due to her domains. Not helping things is her singling out Zs'Skayr, viewing him as an intruder, and Necrozma's, whom she expressed disgust towards its [[HumansAreBastards exploitation in the past by humanity]] and has continuously offered to her service to restore it to its glory days. Zs'Skayr both hates and is scared shitless by her while Necrozma is [[EveryoneHasStandards visibly disturbed by her]], especially after its HeelFaceTurn.
** Lumine, surprisingly, came up to her to offer an alliance. Emphasizing his similar associations with light and associations with angels Meridia deemed him worthy of an ally. It can be assumed Lumine did so to gain not only a very powerful ally but also [[BlingOfWar Aurorans]] at his command to further his goals of both enslaving and/or destroying the older gen Reploids and other inferior robots. Serving Meridia for such benefits in no way really goes against such wishes.
* As a being heavily associated with light and its spectra it would only come natural that the realm she carved from the chaos of the Void would reflect that. The Colored Rooms are a place of coral reefs and floating rock underneath a starry night sky, the floor holding it all together being the realm's solid luminescent waters. Aurorans roam the place. Mankar Camoran, the leader of [[ApocalypseCult the Mythic Dawn cult]], once [[UnreliableExpositor incorrectly]] attributed in his speech that Meridia's realm was that of the ever-dour and bleak Coldharbour... The realm of Molag Bal, her fiercest enemy. Suffice it to say, don't try to play off this piece of misinformation as fact. It's not as bad as [[BerserkButton messing with her shrines]], but don't test your luck.
* Has had a few notable relationships about two members of the Angiris Council, or in the case of Imperius and Malthael one member and one former member, respectively. In the case of the latter it is quite easy to boil down the relationship between the two as mutual opposition despite both being {{Fallen Angel}}s. For Malthael it involves his status as the [[TheGrimReaper Archangel of Death]] versus her associations with life energies and thus partially styles herself and partially depicted as a FriendToAllLivingThings (as much as that is put into debate countless times), so it would only come as natural that they'd clash. His motivations to KillAllHumans has also dampened the situation between the two given there are humans who do worship her.
** Imperius is a more complicated matter, however. Though both Meridia and Imperius work to maintain their ideal visions order, are cordial should it stay that way, and are willing to go through extreme lengths be it the Glister Witch working through her agents, manipulation, and sacrifices while Archangel of Valor while without hesitation be in the thick of it, they actually tend to clash quite a lot. While there's Meridia's nature as a Daedra, though connect demon to Daedroth is pretty loose, there's the difference in attitude. The Archangel is, at his core, utterly uptight and arrogant. Meanwhile Meridia, for as much as she is very manipulative and narcissistic, is comparatively ''less'' strict and is able to be nice and is able sincerely reward those who serve her well.
* She has a few artifact to her name as a Daedric Prince with her most famous Daedric artifact being Dawnbreaker, a golden ebony sword forged in holy light. With the ever-radiant Dawnstar Gem in its crossguard it is a weapon tailed to destroy the walking dead, burning them upon contact and even reportedly causing them to explode upon death. Simply put, it is their bane though there have been accounts of it also being effective against werewolves and even Daedra themselves. It is not an infallible weapon of divine judgement, however. Through the machinations of the Daedric Prince, Nocturnal, [[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsOnline it had one point been corrupted into a sword known as Duskbringer]] though it would soon be restored to its original form through the sacrifice of her champion, Darien Gautier. There are some who seek to return the blade to Duskbringer once more though Meridia has made it clear that anyone who attempts so will get suffer for their troubles.
** While it's not as well known she is also associated with the Ring of Khajiit, an artifact that grants its wearer silence in movement, enhanced speed, and even invisibility. It was once stolen by Rajhin, a famous Khajiit thief, who used such a ring to pull off grand heists and earned his infamy that persists even today. Eventually, his overuse of its powers made the artifact abandon him to his doom. now, the ring is an odd artifact to Meridia name, however, in that it is also the property of the Daedric Prince, Mephala, and it seems fitting to her considering her associations with lies and secrets. Perhaps it has to do with the fact that they're the only Daedric Princes who's spheres are obscured to mortal eyes? Who knows.
** [[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsVSkyrim During the events of Skyrim's civil war and the return of the dragons]] a necromancer defiled a temple in the providence, exploiting the lives lost to raise them as shades. Thus, the Prince sent out the Beacon of Meridia in an undisclosed location for an adventurer to find and be prompted to expel said necromancer, of which [[Pantheon/{{Hunters}} The Dragonborn]] accomplished and was granted Dawnbreaker. Others who stumble upon her Beacon are apprehensive at touching it, mainly so for the fact that they know that the moment they do so they'll be [[MemeticMutation assaulted by the Daedric Prince's lack of indoor voice]].
* Few individuals in the Pantheon could earn a special kind of enmity from Meridia. Included in this particular list is The Ancestor, who's actions brought ruin to not only to his family and blood but also the world around him. Necromancy, demon summoning which then created [[PigMan the Swinefolk]] and [[BodyHorror Formless Flesh]], an old colleague's witchery, deals with [[FishPeople the Pelagic]], and calling upon the cosmos' unholiness are all damning evidence. To Meridia, the Darkest Estate and its surrounding lands corruption in the air and earth itself are waiting to be burned by her light. [[spoiler:With the existence of the Darkest Dungeon and by extension the presence of [[GodIsEvil the Heart of Darkness]] is it any wonder why she hates the place so much?]] And that's not even going over [[spoiler:the Heart's]] rival, The Sleeper, which awaits it as soon as [[spoiler:it breaks free from its comet prison]].
* If a partially surviving Ayleid manuscript is anything to go by, [[TimeMaster Meridia has the ability to alter the rate at which time flows forward]] through the prismatic refraction of light. This piece of information has alarmed many deities in the House of Pantheon/TimeAndSpace, in particular setting [[Pantheon/TimeManipulation the Dahaka]] in motion to watch Meridia's actions. In that same manuscript it also mentions that her "real" role in history was lost, muddying the waters of what kind of entity she truly is. Meanwhile, [[Pantheon/HairStyles Cetrion]] caught wind of the claim and came to Meridia seeking an alliance on Kronika's behalf. Meridia bluntly refused, being unable to tolerate Cetrion and Kronika's familial connection to Shinnok, nor does she have any desire for the supposed balance Kronika seeks. For the Prince's part, she believes the Hourglass is belonging for more fitting hands in the end.
''The light of Meridia cleanses and purifies. There is nothing to fear from its brilliant embrace.''

* Conflicting Opinion
** Towards: [[Pantheon/TimeTravelling Homura Akemi]]
** From: [[Pantheon/OpposingFate Eldrad Ultharan]], [[Pantheon/AuthorityFigures Jim Raynor]]
* Opposes: [[Pantheon/AuthorityFigures Present and Future Zeno]] ([[spoiler:for the most part]])
* Respects: [[Pantheon/{{Demons}} Sparda]], [[Pantheon/SoldiersAndWarriors the Doom Slayer]]
* The personification of the human race. Spent 40,000 years manipulating humanity from the shadows before events forced him to take a more active role. Did not want to be worshiped, but humanity needed a god and he was the only one up to it. That said, he has [[https://youtu.be/Pq-6aj9sNvo?t=1m45s had some success in convincing them he's not really one... just better]].
* Ironically, while he is himself a rather "glass half-full" kind of guy, his power is proportional to the [[WorldHalfEmpty grimdarkness]] of the dimension he is in at the time. In Manga/{{Bokurano}}-land he is mightier than O-Haruhi-Sama, and in [[SugarBowl Teletubby-land]] he wields less than half his usual might, though still possessing great power. It's probably because he [[StrongAsTheyNeedToBe doesn't really need much power in worlds like the latter]] anyway, where things tend to be going fine.
* [[http://youtu.be/97CmxA1FA5s?t=14m7s Would like to note he does]] '''[[AvertedTrope not]]''' [[FantasticRacism want to exterminate xeno life wherever it is, and wouldn't mind living in peace with other alien races]]. [[http://youtu.be/97CmxA1FA5s?t=14m15s He'd just prefer they accept his idea of peace (mainly the aliens under his rule) and not the aliens' idea of peace (like exterminating all life in the galaxy or keeping humans like zoo animals)]]. Furthermore, he thinks the current Imperium's goal of trying to exterminate all aliens in the galaxy is not only impossible but also impractical, and is working day and night to fix this problem.
** However, he originally [[http://youtu.be/6-9XSiNfgk0?t=10m51s refused to allow the Tau to join the Imperium]] due to the fact they [[SeriousBusiness refuse to fight in melee]], but changed his mind when [[spoiler:Magnus]] informed him about [[http://youtu.be/6-9XSiNfgk0?t=15m22s one Tau named Commander Farsight who does fight that way and leads a small rebel faction of like-minded Tau]].
* For some reason, many of his followers have an intense hatred of ponies, especially [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic the divine ones]] in the Pantheon. The same thing goes for furries or anyone from the ''Starcraft'' universe. What his own views of these species are, well, that's one of the many questions about him that nobody knows.
* He learned of an {{Expy}} of his that is the BigBad in ''TabletopGame/StrikeLegion'', and after looking at her rule over her own [[TheEmpire Imperium]], he is ready to confront her for her crimes against Humanity should she ever ascend to the Pantheon, though is also pulling some strings in the Celestial Bureaucracy to ensure that she never ascends at all.
** His actions in his own universe were made out of necessity and the current state of his Imperium was beyond his control but his expy's actions are needlessly cruel and evil, plus her insistence on forcing Humanity to worship her as God is anathema to him.
** Has somewhat mixed feelings on the Empress' greatest enemies the Strike Legion. He respects them fighting against overwhelming odd, but dislikes how some of them [[ShoutOut remind him of]] the hostile aliens of his universe. They both agree against exterminating all alien life but the Strike Legion is not as much a supporter of the belief in subjating all alien life, though the Emperor has pointed out that [[JerkassHasAPoint the aliens of their universe aren't any better]].
* The God Emperor is the only being the Chaos Gods ever truly feared. He is the greatest embodiment of Order in their home universe and their eternal enemy, so much so that the Dark Gods have dubbed him as the Anathema.
** The God Emperor does not oppose the Chaos Gods for petty reasons such as power or influence, but because of his love and dedication to all Humanity. Without the Emperor to oppose them, the Chaos Gods would taint Mankind with their corruption, twisting and defiling all Humankind by their dark powers. His love for Mankind is so great that even on the brink of death, he chose to be eternally preserved upon the Golden Throne for all time, neither living nor dead. His will is constantly challenging the Dark Gods even as his body decays, trapping him in eternal torment as his soul suffers agony beyond measure lighting the Astronomicon to light the way for the Imperium.
*** What makes his sacrifice even greater is that he could have let himself die and be reborn in a new body but a single moment of lapse in concentration would result in Terra being overwhelmed by legions of Daemons, that would mercilessly butcher the hundreds of billions of people living on the planet and turn the homeworld of Mankind itself into an abominable Daemon World.
* Now and then, he will have enough of sitting on the Golden Throne and transfer his soul into a Tarrasque in order to REALLY shake things up. A healthy body to inhabit allows him to perform feats greater than what he can in the mummified remnants of his original body. Said feats include freeing the Eldar goddess Isha and Eldrad Ulthran from the clutches of Nurgle and Slaanesh respectively, rescuing his son Jaghatai Khan from a chronovortex, curb-stomping the armies of Chaos, etc. Slaanesh and Khorne are fuming in rage for this, Tzeentch offered no comment, and Nurgle ''was'' mad, but surprisingly got over it quickly.
* Now and then he gives Asura questioning looks. Some speculate that this is because he thinks that Asura may be one of his erased Primarchs, which would explain how he managed to create [[http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Angry_Marines The Angry Marines]]. Only the most pissed off being in the universe would suffice for such a Chapter.
** On a similar note, he gains a sad but proud look whenever he sees Gimli. This may be because of the grievous losses and near extinction the [[http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Squats Squats]] suffered through in their continued existence in the galaxy. He is also pissed off at the massive amount of stupidity that ensued when the Imperium realized the Squats [[http://1d4chan.org/wiki/File:The_results.jpg survived]]. Seeing the Adeptus Mechanicus, the Inquisition, and the Administratum argue about who to blame for losing the Squats really didn't make him happy.
* Though he is fully capable of interacting with the other gods in the immortal planes, he is unable to do much in the mortal realms, due to his avatar still being a dying corpse on the Golden Throne. Nobody wants to unplug it, uncertain of what will happen if they do.
** However, he did later get a [[WebAnimation/IfTheEmperorHadATextToSpeechDevice Text-To-Speech Device]] installed into the Golden Throne. He has become a lot more chatty since then.
-->'''[[AC:About fucking time! I have so many things to complain about.]]'''
* Despite the bitter and caustic manner he voices himself, the God-Emperor is genuinely sorrowful at what has become of his Imperium; his intended paradise of reason and science has been twisted into a despotic and bureaucratic mess, but with the installation of the Text to Speech device, he has begun restoring the Imperium to what it was meant to be.
* He's not too happy about [[Pantheon/NamingReferences Kars]] [[http://youtu.be/R9w_uoUHgiE?t=1m15s convincing The Adeptus Custodes to dress up like the Pillar Men]] in order to show him tribute.
* Upon learning that the traitor Primarch [[TheUnfavourite Magnus]] had ascended to the Pantheon he ordered Marneus Calgar and the Ultramarines to capture and bring him before the Golden Throne for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_cxfPPvX4Bg&t=2m58s judgement]].
** [[spoiler:A binary encoded message from the Captain-General of the Adeptus Custodes has revealed that Calgar has somehow succeeded in his mission and is now returning with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgmPFEu5_ck&t=0m11s Magnus]]]]. However, the Emperor's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bjBmT8y9PAU response]] to this development is not what anyone would have expected…
** [[spoiler:After a long heart to heart and revelation of previously unknown secrets the Emperor and Magnus have begun overcoming their mutual issues with each other. To prove his goodwill, the Emperor overpowered the Chaos God Tzeentch to restore]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bM8YGsAmeqE&t=5m33s Magnus's soul]]. Afterwards, the Emperor revealed that he intended to recover the Primarchs once more and fulfill Mankind's birthright as the masters of the Galaxy.
** To that intent he has since ordered the Ultramarines to [[http://youtu.be/bM8YGsAmeqE?t=19m48s discreetly recover]] [[spoiler:Vulkan's artifacts for the Salamanders to find and bring him along]]. Apparently, he thinks only they can get the job done.
-->'''[[AC:My reason says "FUCK NO, GET RID OF THAT BLUE BLOB OF NAMBY-PAMBY FECAL MATTER." But my institution says "SEND THEM TO DO SHIT AND STUFF WILL GO FORWARD." I will go with the latter because I have like prophetic powers and stuff.]]'''
* There are not many things that can bring a smile to his face. But one of those things that can are a [[http://youtu.be/Z_2nM1GEllg?t=1m46s Centurion from The Imperial Fists]]. [[spoiler:[[https://youtu.be/M56aycpd9kA?t=16m37s Who, as it turned out to even the Emperor's amazement, is his supposedly-dead son, Rogal Dorn of the Imperial Fists]]]].
* He also appears to have a very weird father-son relationship with the Captain-General of the Adeptus Custodes, calling him son and getting called Dad in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgmPFEu5_ck&t=0m11s return]].
* His alliance with Madoka Kaname is because she represents the hope humanity both needs and deserves. When he heard that [[spoiler:YHVH was planning to kill her, he became one of the masterminds of ''Fanfic/ThePantheonicRebellion''. He has since ordered three entire chapters of the Adeptus Astartes (Space Wolves, Salamanders, and Blood Ravens), three regiments of the Imperial Guard (Cadian 8th, Tanith 1st and Only, and Valhallan), 9 Bane Blades, 4 War Hound Titans, 2 Warlord Titans, and 1 Emperor Titan to Madoka's defense]].
* The Emperor abhors both YHVH and Lucifer, seeing the two of them as abominations that feed on human emotions and only cause suffering much like the Chaos Gods. [[spoiler:YHVH's order to have Madoka killed]] only intensified that disgust but he remembers that it was Lucifer who put all these events into motion.
* The Emperor has gained an alliance with another founder of the Magical Girl Sisterhood, Usagi "Serena" Tsukino, as well as another of the Sailor Senshi, Hotaru Tomoe, by the existence of an alternate universe wherein [[FanFic/LovehammerInc the Senshi were resurrected as the Emperor's daughters]].
* Homura Akemi reminds the Emperor too much of his fallen son, Horus. Both so filled with passion and drive, only to be twisted and broken. With the existence of a universe where [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/7642230/1/Puella-Stellae-Madoka-Magica Homura became the temporary host to the Emperor's soul while he acted as a replacement father to her]], creating a bond between them to the extent that she called him [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/7642230/5/Puella-Stellae-Madoka-Magica dad]], the Emperor has decided to try and convince her to abandon Lucifer.
** The Chaos Gods fear the possibility of this alliance occurring elsewhere in the Multiverse and within the Pantheon. Such an alliance would likely result in their destruction and as such, they act with all their powers to prevent this from happening.
* Has begun having [[https://youtu.be/FyeoBm5QFnA?t=8m28s humanity's history from before the Age of Strife]] written down and sent throughout the House of Knowledge for mass copying and distribution, angry at the fact that most of it is currently censored for some reason.
* The God Emperor is furious and greatly disappointed at the result of the [[http://warhammerfb.wikia.com/wiki/The_End_Times End]] [[http://1d4chan.org/wiki/The_End_Times Times]]. To see a world that has withstood multiple Chaos incursions [[spoiler:destroyed because of idiocy and treachery]] and the lives of billions of human lives lost as a result, has greatly infuriated Him.
** The Lord of Mankind has begun to consolidate His forces and made motions to ascend the remaining loyalist Primarchs and other champions of Mankind. His servants have shown an increased preparation for conflict and the other Gods fear the potential beginnings of the Second War in Heaven.
* After learning the end results of the End Times, the God Emperor has ordered His servants to apprehend the necromancer Nagash and bring the lich to justice, for both his crimes against Humanity and his actions during the End Times.
** He also gave hints that He seeks the ascension of the Warrior-God Sigmar Heldenhammer. A legendary Champion of Mankind that defeated the first Everchosen of the Chaos Gods and banished Nagash for more than two thousand years, Sigmar's arrival would be welcome sight within the Pantheon for the God Emperor.
* Upon being asked his opinion of both ''The Great Upheaval'' and ''The Pantheonic Rebellion'', The Emperor's response was rather simple.
-->'''[[AC:It's like some complete [[{{Jerkass}} asswipes]] suddenly invaded an exclusive girl's club, demolished all their belongings, and [[KillEmAll subjected all members to summary executions and/or humiliation]]. [[HereWeGoAgain And then another completely unrelated group came along]] and [[HumiliationConga did the same exact fucking thing all over again.]]]]'''
* As one of the foremost Champions and God of Humanity, the Emperor was one of the first deities to help the Master Chief fight the Flood. During the conflict, He, the Master Chief, Madoka Kaname and (much to his great reluctance) Lucifer combined powers to banish the Primordial and ensure its imprisonment outside the Pantheon. He now stands alongside the Spartan as the first line of defense against the Parasite should it ever escape from its prison.
** After the conflict, the Emperor made his thoughts on the Precursor very clear:
-->'''[[AC:These tentacle-fetish assholes are nothing if not the abominable embodiment of the [[AbusivePrecursors complete and total assholery that an ancient species can lay claim to]]. The one-time ultimate rulers of reality and evolution, they were [[NeglectfulPrecursors the shitty, neglectful grandparents of all that is life]]. Every living and non-living being in existence should let out a sigh of relief that [[PayEvilUntoEvil these assholes were hunted down and killed by their much abused creations.]]]]'''
** The danger of a Flood invasion of the Pantheon is great enough that he is even willing to [[EnemyMine join forces]] with the Chaos Gods to defeat it, as both sides agree that the Flood is a far greater threat than they are to each other.
* The Emperor has low views of [[TheSocialDarwinist Social Darwinism]], regarding it as a badly disguised Realpolitik underneath false science that has often been used as poor justification for [[ANaziByAnyOtherName cruel and inhumane actions]]. He is often found calling those who hold to this philosophy:
-->'''[[AC: [[{{Jerkass}} Brutish]] [[WhatAnIdiot asscracks]] with a survival-of-the-fittest mindset that think all "weaknesses" within the human species needs to be destroyed. Which would be all fine and dandy if that's what these fuckers were really doing, but usually they're too busy being pretentious pricks and trying to tear down everyone who's weaker than them, so they're [[{{Hypocrite}} actually accomplishing the opposite of]] [[{{Irony}} what they claim to stand for.]]]]'''
** He has come to conflict with En Sabah Nur and Charles zi Britannia over their philosophies and disregard for the lives and well-being of Humans.
* Odin and the God Emperor of Mankind met one another after several correspondences through their sons. The two came to instantly respect one another from their mutual struggle against great enemies of their peoples. The determination to overcome seemingly impossible odds and unbeatable foes in order to preserve one's people was resound in both figures. Odin's ages old struggle against Ragnarok and strings of fate was well known to the Emperor while the King of Asgard learned about the Master of Mankind's millennia of warfare against the foul Gods of Chaos. The two forged a powerful alliance with one another. Much to their mutual amusement, they both possessed the title of Allfather.
* [[WebAnimation/IfTheEmperorHadATextToSpeechDevice May or may have not]] been [[Pantheon/{{Profession}} a certain Cimmerian]] in a past life.
* Despite maintaining a presence within the Pantheon, being the God of Humanity and worshiped as a God-Emperor by his many worshipers, the Emperor still holds many reservations about the title of God. Many would go as far as to say that referring to Him as a God is actually demeaning, since as a Human being, He is so much more. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pq-6aj9sNvo&t=3m17s The Emperor prefers to be called The Man Emperor of Mankind]].
* As a proud proponent of [[http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Humanity_Fuck_Yeah HUMANITY FUCK YEAH]], the Emperor wishes that Humanity would stop doing stupid shit such as worshiping obviously [[GodOfEvil evil and malevolent entities]] (especially if they do so for the petty promises of power and fame), get their act together and finally [[https://youtu.be/97CmxA1FA5s?t=14m32s achieve their birthright]].
** For this reason, Rem sees the Emperor as one of the few humans she can stand. He spends his time with her trying to see the potential humanity can achieve, but every time he gets close to convincing her, some human in the Pantheon does something stupid and evil, and they're back at step one.
** This is also the reason he first began to take a look at the Elric brothers' journey, as one of their first landmark achievements as State Alchemists was to expose a false religion based around a sun god designed to convince the townspeople to get themselves murdered in a coup. Everything he saw after that proved them to be great champions of humanity's potential, to the point they even managed [[spoiler:to impress [[Pantheon/SourcesOfInformation The Truth]], an entity whose entire design centered around punishing humans for thinking they could play God with transmutation knowledge]]. Needless to say, the Emperor approves.
** He's also offered his full support to Philemon and Igor for their service in guiding the Persona-using human youths of the Pantheon into fighting back divine entities to protect humanity. Their most recent Wild Cards, Yu Narukami and Ren Amamiya, are particularly impressive, as Yu is proof that humans can seek and handle the truth even when it's uncomfortable or inconvenient to do so, while Ren is proof that humans can reject mundane nihilism and strive to achieve more in their lives than serving prisoner to corrupt systems.
*** As Nyarlathotep and Yaldabaoth are both proponents of humanity's hopelessness who refuse to let up even after being shown they're wrong, the Emperor considers them to be a danger akin to the Chaos Gods themselves. Once said Chaos Gods are finished being dealt with, they're next.
** With Android 17 [[spoiler:rising past his artificial programming from Dr. Gero's experiments to become the ultimate human, not only surviving near-elimination and self-destruction to win the Tournament of Power but also using his wish selflessly to restore the erased universes]], the Emperor approves of the MVP chants 17 has gotten since his return from [[spoiler:the planet-wide cruise he earned for himself and his family. The Emperor even had a trophy created to commemorate 17's victory and valor. The old doc can suck it]].
* Zamasu's plan to exterminate all mortals "for godly justice" makes the Emperor sick to his goddamn stomach. Aside from the fact that the brutal species he observed at two points a thousand years apart was closer to Xeno than human, Zamasu refused to understand the concept of the Kais serving as guides to humanity when it was taught to him. While he applauds Gowasu for trying his best to get through to the prick, Zamasu was hellbent on judging and destroying those he could've instead facilitated towards greatness. For the Emperor, ThisIsUnforgivable.
** [[spoiler:He laughs at how blatantly the Tournament of Power proves not only just how dead wrong Zamasu was about how hopelessly destructive humans were, but also that Zeno, the childish TopGod who eliminated Zamasu from his multiverse, knew he was wrong the entire time]].
* Despises fellow "Emperor" Frieza for trying to destroy his Earth at least twice and callously destroying countless lives, including [[Anime/DragonBallZResurrectionF wasting one Earth city with a single beam as a way to say hello]]. Upon hearing that he's found the sudden interest of helping other despotic Social Darwinists achieve rule over their Earths, the Emperor of Mankind is not mincing words.
-->'''[[AC: I want that motherfucker eliminated. And I. Want it. Now. Oh, and his fucking one-eyed blond friend can get rekt too.]]'''
* He has a fondness for Duel Monsters, though he was a little disappointed that he couldn't use broken cards in the Pantheon. To compensate, he's constructed a deck based around powerful LIGHT monsters.
** Despite their enmity, he hosts regular Duel Monster tournaments with Tzeentch.
* He hates when people mention that one time he was being choked to death by, of all things, an Ork. Odin sympathizes with him for this; he is still getting shit for having been enslaved by space ants once.
* Few alien species love humanity as much as the Doctor. So it is rather conflicting for him to side with its patron who thinks little of him or any other aliens. The Emperor hopes that the humans in that world will learn not to rely on the Time Lord's help all the damn time.
* Is not a big fan of Zeno for being so childish with ultimate divine power. [[spoiler:That SecretTestOfCharacter with the Tournament of Power did impress him, though]].
* Has the absolute loyalty of Father Balder and Bayonetta after hearing of Balder's tale through Sanguinius and responding by raising the case to the Court of the Gods to have Rosa, Balder's wife and Bayonetta's mother, resurrected as her husband's herald.
** Conversely, the Emperor lauded the demon Sparda as an honorable figure, and had called that he would reach the Pantheon well before he actually did[[labelnote:*]]he's convinced two or three others saw it coming as well, but can't be certain of whom[[/labelnote]]. When asked why, he told his son about the legend of the Dark Knight from the other side of Balder's world who woke up to justice and singlehandedly sealed his demon brethren to stop them from enslaving all of humanity. Sanguinius and other human-proponent angels would welcome Sparda openly to the Pantheon.
* With so many threats both within and outside of humanity, the Emperor of Mankind has decided that a new order needs to be created to protect humanity, with himself in the helm. For this, he has founded the Pantheon/OrderOfHumanity to serve the interests of mankind as a whole.
* He also highly approves of [[Pantheon/SoldiersAndWarriors the Doom Slayer]], who, funnily enough, also receives the approval of [[Pantheon/ObsceneActions Khorne]]. While his staunch and unwavering defense of mankind earned him the Emperor's favor, the Slayer's brutal, hatred-fueled methods of dispatching the demonic hordes please Khorne. The Slayer doesn't mind either way.

* TeethclenchedTeamwork with: [[Pantheon/KillersAndAssassins Ezio Auditore]] (one-sided on his part... sort-of), [[Pantheon/AntiVillains Shay Patrick Cormac]] (again, one-sided for him... sorta)

* Scares: [[Pantheon/{{Memes}} JonTron]] (Sheele only)
* Opposes: [[Pantheon/NiceAndNasty Masato Kusaka/Kamen Rider Kaixa]]
* Ascended because Esdeath is in the Pantheon, and they feared that her presence would bring another tragedy like the ones they had to go through. What they didn't expect was all of them appearing in the Pantheon together [[spoiler: especially given how some very bad things happened to most of them]]. Still, it was a very joyous reunion for all of them. Now, the full force of Night Raid is in full gear.
* Their arrival did not go unnoticed by Esdeath herself, of course. Not soon after they arrived, she was the first one to appear before them. Before they could prepare for an impending fight, Esdeath quickly grabbed Tatsumi and kissed him full on the mouth, [[{{Troll}} fully aware that his fellow Night Raiders were watching]]. Mine was clearly ''[[ClingyJealousGirl not happy]]'' and nearly rushed over to to confront the general before being restrained by teammates, [[spoiler:[[DeathByAdaptation which is a good idea given what happened the last time she did it]].]] Tatsumi and Mine aside, the few of the other member's reactions to Esdeath are as follows:
** Najenda: Still disappointed in her.
** Susanoo: [[spoiler: Regrets falling to her and wants another go.]]
** Chelsea: Hates her [[spoiler: for desecrating her body.]]
* "Necessary evil" means exactly what it says; to commit evil deeds for the sake of good. They don't even consider themselves as heroes despite being clean-cut good guys. Because of that, they put a notice on Bane, who considers himself as such [[spoiler: though destroying Gotham just to get revenge on Batman makes him anything but]].
* As the Pantheon is nowhere near as corrupt as the Empire they originated from, it gives Night Raid some time to wind down and relax somewhat. They still deal with the occasional CompleteMonster, but not as much as they used to.
** In an effort to conform to the LighterAndSofter nature of the Pantheon, they [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BNEePLbgCf8 have occasionally attempted to re-brand themselves as the]] ''[[Series/MightyMorphinPowerRangers Mighty Morphin' Night Raid Rangers]]''.
* Evil gods from the House of Family stay ''far'' away from them, since they are willing to ([[EstablishingCharacterMoment and did]]) kill families who torment and torture others for shits and giggles.
* Since they ''are'' serial killers, the House of Justice would like nothing more than to bring them in to make them face their sins. [[Pantheon/MainHouse Cosmos]] is the only one keeping that from happening.
* There was a time that Chelsea felt that Bulat and Sheele were failures as assassins due to their companions, something that she believed assassins can't afford to have. After spending time with Tatsumi however, she felt herself growing attracted to him to the point that she finds herself moving to the risky front-lines to impress him. It was at that point that she relized that she no longer had the right to insult Bulat and Sheele anymore. [[spoiler: Her actions wound up killing her, but she doesn't regret what she did.]]
* Their relations with Ezio Auditore is a bit… strained to say the least. They at first seemed to interested in joining ranks with a legendary assassin, but Ezio made it clear that he's less than pleased with how they do things; that is, killing anyone who is '''remotely''' involved, while the Assassin Brotherhood tries to minimize the number of causalities as much as possible. Ditto with Shay Patrick Cormac, the infamous [[HeroKiller Assassin Hunter]], who [[WhatTheHellHero outright chastised them]] for their bloody rampages. However, after hearing just how [[CrapsackWorld terrible their world is]] [[KickTheDog and their marks are far worse than what the Assassin Brotherhood and the Templar Order deal with]], they (separately) let it slide, and they seem willing to work with Night Raid, although reluctantly. But given how much Ezio and Shay don't like each other, the group makes sure they aren't in the same House when negotiating with either.
** Unbeknownst to them, Shay plans to find a way to eliminate them (and Esdeath) one day, and when he does, he will do it ''alongside Ezio'', who in turn is actually open to the idea, though more on Esdeath than Night Raid.
* Maya Fallegeros seems interested in their abilities against Danger Beasts and hopes to recruit them in order to rebuild Night Hand. The group's unsure on whether or not to accept her invitation. However, it is through her that they met the siblings [[Pantheon/{{Combat}} Jago]] and [[Pantheon/OtherWeaponTropes Black Orchid]], giving the trio more allies against Ultratech.
* As they make a living hunting down bastards, they have become allies with Kenshiro, who pledges to aid them.
* Leone seems to get along with Yang [[{{Expy}} as they seem a lot alike]]. She's pretty solid with Blake too [[spoiler: and thinks she'd look cuter with her cat ears]].
* Oren Pierre Alfonzo is interested in seeing Bulat in action. To the surprise of no one, Bulat is interested in learning about Oren, but the pastry chef told him not to get any ideas, as he's attracted to only [[Pantheon/AntiVillains one man]]. Chelsea is also Oren's frequent visitor.
* It goes without saying that Tatsumi has a way with girls. Though he sometimes wishes he doesn't have such luck, and who could blame him after seeing ''Esdeath''? He often confines with Issei, who doesn't mind the attention, but can see where he's coming from. He also sported an OddFriendship with Esmeralda, who knows what it's like to gain attention from the wrong people.
* [[spoiler: The House of Prophecy claimed that Tatsumi and Mine's relationship will not end well. They declared that even if it's true, they will enjoy as much time they have together.]]
* Mine is pretty close to Ange as they both experienced the dark side of racism. She also admires how good she is with guns and explosives, having learned to use them in a short amount of time. She does wonder if Ange's AntiMagic can affect Imperial Arms, though. Ange also commented that she [[Creator/YukariTamura sounds a lot like]] [[Pantheon/{{Upbringing}} Hilda]].
* Sheele scares the crap out of [=JonTron=] because of [[VideoGame/ClockTower someone else who uses big scissors to kill people]]. He tried to 'stop' her by throwing wet pieces of ham at her. Not only did it (obviously) not work, but Sheele made it worse by cluelessly eating the ham on her face. He immediately collapsed to the floor like a toppled statue, having suffered the equivalent of 10 heart attacks at once. To add insult to injury, there were two iPods placed on both sides of [=JonTron=]'s hospital bed with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6TZieWmwKGM this song]] set on repeat and maximum volume. It caused him to immediately wake up from his coma, screaming at the top of his lungs. To the surprise of no one, the one behind all of it was [[Pantheon/CrueltyAndSadism Yuuki Terumi]].
* Not that Tatsumi was all that happy-go-lucky to begin with, but he wouldn't be quite the same after meeting Johan Liebert. Johan asked him if he ever regretted killing. Tatsumi stated that he never thought of it, only that he made his first kill after seeing his two childhood friends killed brutally. It's something that he didn't want to experience again. [[MindRape Johan took the moment to inform Tatsumi that]] [[spoiler:[[UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom he has indirectly caused EVERY death of his fellow Night Raiders]]]]. Tatsumi immediately went into shock as Johan went through a list:
** [[spoiler:Sheele's death]] at the hands of [[spoiler: Seryu]] occurred because [[spoiler:Seryu]] began to actively hunt down Night Raid to avenge the death of [[spoiler:her mentor, Ogre]], who Tatsumi personally killed.
** [[spoiler: Bulat's]] concern for Tatsumi's safety during their fight with the [[spoiler: Three Beasts]] definitely proved to be a hindrance to him. In addition, had Tatsumi just held off [[spoiler:Nyau]] for just a few more seconds, [[spoiler:Bulat would have been able to kill Liver, and thereby preventing his own death]].
** [[spoiler: Chelsea's]] death at the hands of [[spoiler: Kurome]] was caused by [[spoiler:her out-of-character, brash decisions]]. [[spoiler: Chelsea]] admits to herself that her out-of-character actions were the [[LoveMakesYouDumb result of her feelings for Tatsumi]], as well as her desire to impress him.
** [[spoiler: Susanoo]] was killed by [[spoiler: Esdeath]] when she used her recently acquired Trump Card, which had the ability to freeze time. to defeat him. The primary purpose of the Trump Card was to prevent Tatsumi from escaping her again after his escape at Mt. Fake.
** [[spoiler: Lubbock's]] death at the hands of [[spoiler: Izou]] was the result of [[spoiler: him trying to escape capture.]] [[spoiler: Lubbock was only captured]] because Syura was able to identify Tatsumi. Syura even admitted that he was not entirely sure that [[spoiler: Lubbock]] was a member of Night Raid, and only [[spoiler: kidnapped him]] because he was with Tatsumi.
** [[spoiler:Mine ended up in a coma (or killed depending on the incarnation)]] because of her decision to save Tatsumi from his [[spoiler: execution at the hands of Esdeath.]] The icing on the cake was that [[spoiler:Esdeath had no intention of getting Tatsumi killed, and he would have survived his apparent "execution", whether or not Night Raid would have saved him.]]
*** As Tatsumi stood there [[HeroicBSOD devastated]], his team found him and Johon left before anything could be done about it. Tatsumi was so completely frozen in shock that it took several visits to Dr. Tenma to snap him out of it. [[spoiler: Sheele, Bulta, Chelsea, Susanoo, Lubbock, and Mine]] also told him not to beat himself up over what happened to them, because anything could have happened and they don't regret their actions. He eventually got back to normal, and unfortunately for Johan he has now been blacklisted by Night Raid.
* As he is responsible for almost every bad thing that has happened to Norma's, they have also placed a mark on Embryo. It would be, however, rather difficult.
* Ra's has spoken an interest in their abilities and views them as a rival organization. Talia and Lady Shiva also wishes to test their skills to see just how deadly they are.
* Mine really hates Masato Kusaka for attacking anything not human, particularly the Orphnochs such as [[spoiler:[[Pantheon/{{Tics}} Takumi Inui]]]], even if they have no ill intent. It reminds her of how her life was back before she joined Night Raid. Though she does find it amusing how Esdeath also hates his guts. If someone like [[{{Jerkass}} Esdeath]] thinks you're an [[EvenEvilHasStandards irredeemable jerk]], then there must really be something wrong with you.
* They absolutely despises Ryoma Sengoku and Tenjuro Banno due to their stint as {{Mad Scientist}}s which reminded them of their enemy Dr. Stylish. Not to mention that they also put them as part of their assassination list after they found out that Sengoku has Stylish as one of his followers and Banno's ambition of initiating another Global Freeze in the pantheon, which has made their point to put a stop on them.

* Conflicting Opinion: [[Pantheon/{{Warhammer40000}} The Tau Empire]], [[Pantheon/{{Planning}} Commander]] [[Pantheon/{{Unpopularity}} Farsight]]
* Sometimes, it does [[GoodFeelsGood feel good doing the right thing in and of itself.]] However, there are often ulterior motives. Sometimes, it's just to butter them up. Sometimes, the ulterior motive is evil or at least non-benevolent. But then there are people who seek to benefit others because it benefits them as well and as such, everyone wins. This is the sort of man Professor Horace Slughorn is and as such, he was invited to the Pantheon to represent this ideology.
** Specifically, Horace Slughorn often handpicks promising students to join his Slug Club, a social club where he uses his connections to invite colleagues and other important figures to help promote his students so they may be able to achieve their full potential and promising careers in their future, likely ahead of what they could've done on their own.
** And what does Slughorn ask in exchange for these generous benefits in helping to secure his students' successful futures? Not much surprisingly, preferring to use his new connections for comforts such as sports tickets, sweets (especially his favorite, crystallized pineapple) and opinions in the newspapers. Many are a little surprised by this though some note given how he was retired when first introduced, it was likely he wished to enjoy his golden years in peace and comfort. Though meeting Harry Potter and Albus' convincing got him back into teaching.
* In fact, Idubbbz opposes him, fearing that he would fund bad Kickstarter and Indiegogo projects, even though Horace completely agrees with Ian that most of said projects are useless in the long run. He has a careful eye for prospects, after all, and won't fund someone who doesn't catch his eye.
* Some of the kinds of wishes future Puella Magi make with Kyubey to get their powers happen to be out of EnlightenedSelfInterest. As such, Slughorn pities those who've made such wishes such as Sayaka and Kyoko[[note]]Mami's was justifiably selfish, Homura's was selfless (and self-destructive given what she's now become), and Madoka's was ''both'' ultimately selfless and ultimately selfish[[/note]], and despises Kyubey for his manipulations so that their benefits are never earned.
* There are those who think that while the Tau Empire employs EnlightenedSelfInterest, the [[UnreliableNarrator possibility that]] they [[BrainwashingForTheGreaterGood use mind-control devices to make sure their allies don't forget about the "benefits everyone" part]]. As such, Slughorn doesn't know what to think of them. Or of its only representative so far, Commander Farsight.
* Sometimes logic calls for helping others in exchange for tangible future benefits, which Spock respects and has thus forged an alliance with Slughorn. Batman also understands the pragmatic benefits of what Slughorn represents.
* Trunchbull reminds him too much of Umbridge and conversely commends Matilda for her actions and is considering helping her out, given her intellectual and telekinetic potential.
* Given the mistakes they've done, Slughorn has pity for Celestia Ralgris, Kyoichiro Kuroi, and Raiden.
* Like Piglet for being able to stand by his friends even when he's afraid and loathes Djibril for being a DirtyCoward.

* Conflicting Opinion: [[Pantheon/TimeManipulation Homura Akemi]]
* Klaus first ascended upon uniting a war-ridden Europa by crushing all opposition with an iron fist. Some say that was excessive, but with the rampant [[MadScientist Sparks]] with their crazy inventions, he was the nation's only hope at that time. In all fairness, he has his empire is not a Byzantine clusterfuck like most; the only demand he makes of the nations he conquers is "Don't Make Me Come Over There", Which covers only two things: starting wars, and possessing the LostTechnology left behind by [[BigBad The Other]]. Otherwise, his empire is mostly peaceful. [[spoiler:At least before his…removal, after which war has resumed in his empire]], showing that dictatorships, regardless of intent, only last as long as they have a strong leader to keep everyone in line.
* Upon ascension, the first thing Klaus did (after getting his empire set up) was finally get the time to look at the advances of science [[AlternateHistory humanity can make]] ''[[AlternateHistory without the need of Sparks]]'' (and was told that it was precisely the fact that they had no Sparks that these advances can be made in the first place). Without Sparks, theoretical study was developed, which eventually led to atomic energy, computers, and decent aircraft (like airplanes, helicopters, and up to spacecraft).
** Also, without Sparks running rampant, societal progress was able to advance (more than just getting past the role of women and racism), leading to things like democracy and a working-class consumer society. Due to his cynicism as a result of ruling, he has difficulty comprehending the former and altruistic actions in general.
* You won't find his temple on the ground like most. You'll have to look to the skies just above the House of Personality instead, because Castle Wulfenbach is a fleet of airships.
* Don't make him come over to the battlefield. If you do, you'll regret it. Unfortunately, given all the other powerful deities in the Pantheon, this threat is mostly hollow here, at least to the Greater Gods and stronger.
* Klaus's Spark manifests in his analytical prowess, like dismantling and improve the designs of other Sparks, "finding the right monster for the right job" (i.e. making good use out of [[HumansAreBastards horrific monsters]]), and figuring out secrets his people try to hide from him in an attempt to undermine him or break his rules.
* Has an ambiguous amount of respect for Steven Armstrong. Reasons for this are unknown.
* His respect for [[Pantheon/AntiHeroes Kiritsugu]], Raiden, and [[Pantheon/CharacterRoles Martin Walker]] is more certain, citing their mutual hatred of war as his reason. He agrees entirely.
** For Walker in particular, he also expresses pity for [[spoiler:the versions that didn't make it out of Dubai]].
* Used to respect Charles zi Britannia, but then he discovered [[spoiler:[[AssimilationPlot what he was really going for]]]]. The fact that Charles promotes war [[SocialDarwinist to create social progress]] also goes against what Klaus had to do (rule ruthlessly to ''stop'' and discourage war).
** As for [[Pantheon/ActsOfWar Lelouch's]] [[spoiler:final GenghisGambit]], he thinks the kid's too reckless and overly reliant on how people will behave in a future [[spoiler:without Lelouch]].
* Regarding Homura's actions to protect Madoka [[spoiler:by depowering her]], he believes the Puella Magi is being unreasonably selfish, even though it protected her from Kyubey's machinations (and he hates them just as much as anybody else). However, upon discovering that there may have been [[PoorCommunicationKills severe communication issues]] on top of Kyubey's manipulations behind her decision, he's at a loss on what he should think of her.
* Valvatorez hates warmongers, and sympathizes with Klaus on what he had to do to stop the war on his world.
* Because of the threat of "the Other", Klaus has been trying time and again to get the GUAG to surrender Agatha over to him due to the threat she can pose in the Pantheon. That said, with all the other threats that make her comparatively small beans, Agatha's presently a medium priority.
** However, if there's a way to remove "the Other" from Agatha without destroying her, he's willing to back any such plan. That said, he's still taking into account her family's past, so…
* Ever since [[spoiler:his meddling with time by sealing away Mechanicsburg in a temporal stasis field with himself inside it]], [[EvenEvilhasStandards something not even the Heterodynes of old were willing to (let anyone) do]], Klaus got [[spoiler:the Dahaka]]'s attention (and not the positive kind), [[spoiler:especially in revelation of [[ClockRoaches what's coming to his world]]]]. [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20180629#.WzieUzG-nIW And it's only recently that Agatha's come to realize the ramifications of his actions]].
* Has joined the GUAL after the Pantheonic Rebellion to prevent whatever chaos Lucifer and his minions are causing.
** The arrival of [[Pantheon/AntiVillains Eliphas the Radiant]] has made him question his loyalty to YHVH due to the large number of atrocities the latter has committed against His own followers. He is considering taking [[Pantheon/{{Justice}} Eiki Shiki]]'s side in the GUAL Reformation, realizing he might have to "come over there". He has thanked Eliphas for helping him see the truth.
* While not really allies with the GUAG, [[spoiler:after an attempt was made on [[Pantheon/LightAndBrightness Sora]]'s life by Lucifer, Klaus and his men were tasked in sending the Keyblade bearer and his friends to [[VideoGame/PokemonSunAndMoon Alola]] to hide there for the time being. Thanks to him, they're back in their own world to get stronger and prepare for the clash with [[Pantheon/{{Villains}} Xehanort]].]]
* ''"I was away for a '''few years''' and I came back to a world in '''ruins.''' Death, destruction, chaos, the endless fighting--it was like the [[WhiteSheep Heterodyne Boys]] had never '''existed.''' Things were worse than ever. So I stopped it.

* Opposed By: '''[[spoiler: [[Pantheon/{{Birds}} Lugia]]]]''', [[Pantheon/ElementalPairings The Legendary Birds]]
* Raven Reyes, along with the rest of the crew aboard the Eligus IV, was brought to the Pantheon during the [[spoiler: [[Fanfic/RainbowRivalries Team Rainbow Rocket Crisis]]]], where she was awoken from her cryosleep by Ghetsis Harmonia, who forced her to not only reconfigure the DNA splicers to work on the Legendary Birds, but also [[spoiler: decipher the files needed to convert [[OlympusMons Lugia]] into its [[TheCorruption Shadowed form]]]]. She didn't have much choice in the matter; either she did what the Team Plasma Sage said or else the others on board would die. Luckily, when the Plasma's guard was down, Raven took the opportunity to briefly escape and send a DistressCall to the Pantheon. This allowed for several surviving deities to come up, defeat the Team Plasma grunts, capture Ghetsis, and secure Raven and the other passengers aboard the Eligus IV. She would later lend a hand in helping the resistance reach an [[AlternateDimension Ultra Universe]] and aid in [[spoiler: the defeat of Giovanni and Team Rainbow Rocket as a whole.]] For aiding in the victory against the criminal syndicate, Raven was given a temple and position as a Goddess in the Pantheon.
** When she was being shown around her Temple, which was a near perfect replica of her workshop back in Arkadia, Raven was given the biggest shock of her life. Standing by the desk side was a middle aged man, with brown eyes and frizzy black and grey hair adorning a neutral yet formal face. At first, Raven assumed that it was another hallucination, a leftover from the destroyed A.L.I.E. chip. That all changed when he came over and pulled her into a hug, speaking in a soft voice.
--> '''Sinclair''': "Hey, Spacewalker. What took you so long?"
** That was when Raven realized her mentor and ParentalSubstitute Jacapo Sinclair had been selected as her Herald, and after so many years apart, was reduced to tears and returned the hug in turn.
* Raven's new home gave her plenty of interesting neighbours to hang out with, with Luke Skywalker and Killua Zoldyck becoming her first allies in the Sub-House. Killua has questioned why Raven, as well as the rest of the 100, would have to kill so many people, to which Luke correctly noted that it was to save many other lives in the process. While Raven was saddened by the thought of what she and the others had to do, The last Jedi Knight reassured her that it was for the greater good. The Vulcan Spock, who was also in attendance, agreed with Luke's statement. After all, the needs of the many outweighed the needs of the few.
* Raven has found herself making friends with some of the Pantheon's mechanics and technical geniuses, many of them praising her own work as mechanic for the 100. Tony Stark and Reed Richards have had their gear fixed up by her and Bentley the Turtle and Otacon have approached Raven with an offer to join the White Hat Hackers. She has yet to confirm the offer but she has been considering it. But more often than not, Raven is seen working with both Sinclair and Alpha 5, with the little robot giving her special access to the Zords to work on and study their inner workings. It was like a dream come true for her and has been making modifications to them to help with against the Demonic Legion and SHOCKER's ever-growing arsenal of monsters.
* During her rescue, Raven was more than shocked to see the [[spoiler: former]] Commander of the 12 Clans, Lexa, alive and well. In fact, it was a total surprise due to not only Lexa being killed in their home world, but also [[spoiler: the Flame being passed on to Clarke's adoptive daughter Madi, making her the new Commander.]] Now while Raven has plenty of reasons to hate Lexa - with the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAL2NMjGfL8 execution of her first boyfriend Finn]] being high on that list - she only has to deal with her from time to time and even then she's on MUCH better terms with Clarke Griffin, even if they [[TeethClenchedTeamwork get on each other's nerves.]]
* The death of Finn, coupled with several other tragedies in her life, is the reason Raven stays away from the House of Pantheon/{{Love}}, as she doesn't want to be reminded of what she had lost. However, every now and again she'll meet up with Spike Spiegel and discuss their past relationships together, usually over drinks at the Stray Dog Bar. Spike is always welcomed company, and when they're together, the pair go on talking their many adventures, sharing a couple of laughs along the way. It was through Spike that Raven became friends with Radical Ed, whose technological expertise surprised even the Spacewalker in spite of her age. The pair have also been seen working with Ed's neighbour Winry Rockbell, often making comparisons between their work and helping one another improve upon their skills.
* Considering what Team Rainbow Rocket did to the Pantheon, her friends and to herself, Raven opposes the evil members of the organization for varying reasons; Giovanni for wanting to take over the world and the Multiverse, Lysandre for destroying his homeworld using the Ultimate Weapon, and Ghetsis... [[HateSink For simply existing and giving her hell.]] That said, she's cool with the leaders who have reformed such as Maxie, Archie and N. Cyrus is still on the fence, [[spoiler: as he did aid in corrupting Dialga and Palkia as part of the plan,]] but he's been true to his word about reforming himself.
* Having been [[spoiler: [[BrainwashedAndCrazy possessed by the A.I. program A.L.I.E]]]] and seeing what it has been capable of when multiple individuals are under [[spoiler: her control]], Raven is in extreme opposition to all forms of artificial intelligence in the Pantheon, even if they're good natured. She's wary around Lan Hikari and Mega Man.EXE, TRON and Kevin Flynn, with TRON especially seeing as he was corrupted before as Rinzler. But CLU and the Master Computer Program are even more dangerous, and when push comes to shove she will work with TRON to stop them, even if she doesn't like it.
** Though Clarke was [[spoiler: able to destroy A.L.I.E., [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_ECmTkoAPQ a small remnant remained.]]]] It gave Raven an increase to her already incredible intelligence but it threatened to kill her unless permanently removed, which she did... by drowning herself and remaining braindead for fifteen minutes. The House of Pantheon/HealthAndDiseases was fascinated by this, and wanted to bring Raven in to examine her brain more closely but to that, she gave a flip of the bird and went straight back to work.
* Having been through more than her [[DeathByAThousandCuts fair]] [[BrokenBird share]] [[ButtMonkey of]] [[{{Understatement}} torture]], Raven steers clear of the House of Pantheon/{{Slaughter}}, more specifically the Sub-House of Pantheon/TortureAndMutilation. That didn't stop her from doing research on the deities residing there and, as a result, it's made her completely stand against the likes of Ramsay Bolton, who is well known for his sheer brutality, and the Allied Mastercomputer, whose cruelty and sadism reminded Raven way too much of how A.L.I.E. not only [[TheCorruption possessed her]] but also for playing horrible mental games in a manner to gain control. Despite this, she gets along with Lewa, as the Toa of Air once was possessed in the past by the Bohrok swarm.
** It's because of her time being possessed that Raven opposed the two neighbouring Sub-Houses; Pantheon/MindControl and Pantheon/MindGames, much to the frustration of the good-aligned deities there. She still doesn't want to take her chances with them.
* Raven does not like to be [[DontYouDarePityMe helped when it comes to her crippled leg]]. she would rather take care of things herself. Still, she did get some sympathy from Tyrion Lannister, who is rather fond of bastards, cripples and broken things.
* Much like Lexa, Raven is absolutely terrified of Godzilla and the immense power he possesses. Avatar Korra has tried to reassure her that the King of Monsters won't unleash Primafiya upon the Pantheon, but the Spacewalker's worries haven't been eased whatsoever.
* Even though Raven was the only one granted with godhood, she has been looking for a way to ascend her friends so they can share the position with her. Progress has been slow, and with so many people to choose from she has to be careful.
* Not to be confused with the other "Ravens" in the Pantheon. This one is neither a [[Pantheon/BodyParts a cyborg]], [[Pantheon/{{Shapeshifters}} a mutant shapeshifter]], or [[Pantheon/{{Emotion}} the daughter of a powerful demon bent on world domination.]] There's been rumours about a team forming with all the Raven's involved but only time will tell.

'''[[Film/DeadPoetsSociety John Keating]], God of [[CarpeDiem Seizing the Day]]'''
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/keating_5.jpg]]
* Quasideity
* Symbol: Himself standing on a desk
* Alignment: NeutralGood

* Sympathetic towards: [[Pantheon/{{Mentalities}} Simon Henriksson]], [[Pantheon/FearsomeArchetypes Doki Doki Literature Club]]
* Odd Relations: [[Pantheon/NarrativeStructure Greendale Study Group (especially regarding Jeff Winger)]]
* At Welton Academy, there are high expectations placed on the students to follow a path to Ivy League or some other prestigious school once they graduate. John Keating, a former student at Welton, has taken a job as English teacher there and has a much more free-spirited approach to giving lessons to his students, emphasized by him encouraging them to make their lives extraordinary. It’s not without some problems, including the school’s headmaster being in opposition to Keating’s approach and one of Keating’s students committing suicide as a result of his strict father (which Keating was blamed for) and an investigation that would result in Keating losing his teaching job at Welton. Nonetheless, the students that Keating taught and temporarily revived Dead Poets Society (a club whom Keating was a member of) gave him a fond farewell, knowing that what he taught them will influence their view of life well after he’s gone.
* Some time after his removal from Welton, Keating received a letter from an unknown sender praising him for his unconventional learning approach that allowed students to liven up and that he was invited to a place identified as “Pantheon”. It took some time to process what was going on, but Keating decided to go to that place, whatever it was and wherever it may be. The driving took a while and even Keating wasn’t sure if someone was pulling a joke on him after a while. Eventually, he arrived at the gates of what appeared to be a large district of multiple schools and was told that he was chosen to be a part of the “Pantheon” due to how he influenced his previous students for the better in spite of the obstacles that came their way. In a few ways, this was a second chance for Keating to impart his wisdom onto potential students, with that coming with similar problems and then some.
* Eikichi Onizuka was quick to welcome Keating to the various schools of the Pantheon and even offered him to observe one of Onizuka’s lessons for a day. Keating noticed that Onizuka was much like himself in terms of helping students better themselves via unconventional methods, though it was clear that Keating wouldn’t resort to violence to solve anything. In any case, Onizuka saw plenty of good things in Keating and is hopeful that the lessons that Keating will teach in the schools of the Pantheon will impact his students for the better.
* Another teacher who brought their students together who Keating got along with was Chisa Yukizone. Like Keating, Chisa was a former student at the school she attended before becoming a teacher there, though she was trying to find corruption within Hope’s Peak Academy as opposed to Keating, who was simply accepted a job at Welton. Keating was disturbed by what happened to Chisa when she was corrupted into becoming an Ultimate Despair and performed actions much darker than he could have imagined, but he knew that Chisa harbored immense regret over what she did that time. She was encouraging towards Keating, showed fondness towards the poetry lessons he taught and told him that what mattered most was enriching students’ lives by bringing them together no matter how different they are.
* Byleth was another teacher who Keating befriended, even if the latter had a much more complicated adventure than he did. Byleth fought in various wars prior to being a teacher and was emotionally stunted as a result. It was through their interactions with their various students that helped Byleth grow as a person and in turn, Byleth did what they could to help their students even in the face of differing tragedies that would later occur. It was quite a bit for Keating to take in (especially regarding the differences in Byleth’s story depending on the students they taught), but what mattered was how Byleth became more open as a person due to the bonds that they and their students developed with each other.
* Keating was a member of Dead Poets Society prior to becoming a teacher and he continues to use poetry as a means to inspire his students to seize the day and be their best. There were a handful of deities within the Pantheon who are fond of poetry that Keating has imparted his lessons on, but it was the Doki Doki Literature Club that had Keating’s attention. While at a glance they appeared to be a club that has written poetry, they have had plenty of severe problems and Monika has been working to try and be a better person ever since she caused grief among the other members and herself. Keating has sometimes met up with the club to give them encouragement and help them overcome their personal problems.
* While Keating has come into conflict with strict school personnel in the past, mainly regarding Headmaster Nolan, it’s the openly cruel teachers that Keating is unable to tolerate, including the likes of Agatha Trunchbull and Baldi. It’s one thing to harshly put students in line, but it’s another thing to instill fear in them and punish them for any slight transgressions, which in Keating’s view, means that students won’t be able to learn important lessons and could end up being too scared to do anything about it. Those cruel teachers, Agatha especially, would retort that Keating’s methods caused trouble for others involved and not only played a role in him getting fired back then, but that such an incident could happen again.
* Although much younger than the students that Keating formerly taught, Matilda Wormwood was a student who took a liking to him. Keating was impressed that Matilda was able to stand up against the abuse she was dealt with and led a better life because of it, even if her psychic powers were something that was strange to him. Matilda also expressed sympathy towards Keating given how despite his efforts to be a good teacher to his students, tragedy prevented him from keeping that job.
* One of the various people in Greendale Community College that the various members of the Study Group met was Eustice Whitman, a teacher that was very similar to Keating in terms of character who had plenty of words to say to Jeff Winger after the latter assumed his class could succeed from simply coasting by. Jeff taking Eustice’s advice of seizing the day resulted in him doing a lot of ridiculous things, though Jeff has more or less changed since that incident and was more bemused than anything to hear about John Keating in the Pantheon. Hearing about the kinds of advice Keating gives to his students, Jeff couldn’t help but be reminded of Eustice. From what Keating has heard of Jeff and the rest of the Greendale Study Group, he considers them to be a diverse and close, if very eccentric, group of people.
* The suicide of Neil Perry, a student of Keating’s, was something that impacted the teacher significantly (partially since Keating did try to help Neil with the latter’s passion for acting), especially since he got wrongfully blamed for it and later fired from his job because of it. The Pantheon had a fair number of deities who had to contend with their own suicidal thoughts, with the outcome of whether or not they were able to overcome it varying greatly. Simon Henriksson was among those who had to deal with depression and although whether or not he committed suicide because of the fears he was dealing with is another discussion entirely, it didn’t change the fact that Simon had mental issues, something that he’s trying to work on fixing in the Pantheon. Keating is sympathetic towards Simon’s plight, though Simon isn’t sure if it’s worth being with Keating despite his positive qualities and the likely trauma that would result in the teacher getting literally caught up in Simon’s dilemma.

* Conflicting Opinion: The House of Pantheon/{{Heroism}}
* This is a tragic tale of [[ABoyAndHisX a boy and his dog]] that ended up becoming one of the saddest endings in the Multiverse. What was merely a stray meeting an adolescent became one of the greatest friendships between a human and his CanineCompanion. Sadly, a bout with rabies forced Travis to make the difficult decision of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SnPmBCIParY shooting his companion]] to save his family. Few in the Pantheon do not know of the tale, yet there has been much debate over how to handle the ascension. Two camps emerged: one who wanted Old Yeller to stay dead and the other group wanted both owner and pet to be brought up. It was the House of Pantheon/{{Despondency}} that decided to side with the later, citing various other characters who have previously died yet have ascended. Thus, the boy and his dog was reunited in the Pantheon. Needless to say, much tears were shed from Travis.
** Travis wasn't the only one who had to perform such a [[ShootTheDog tough decision]]. George Milton was there to comfort the boy shortly after the ascension. He also helped the boy on how to cope with the return of the very thing he had to kill. Meanwhile, Lennie loves to hang out with Old Yeller. After the meet, George suggests to continue any adventures they may have done together. It turns out the Pantheon many places to explore. The two can often be seen having the time of their lives in the Houses of Nature and Beasts.
** Besides the obvious tragic fate of Old Yeller, Travis also lost his father early in life and probably would have lost his brother if not for Old Yeller. Long story short, his entire life has been a TraumaCongaLine. As such, he's a sympathetic figure in the Hall of Sadness. Yet the Avatar Korra believes that that life of his was what helped him [[MiseryBuildsCharacter become a man]]. Still, she made herself available for him in rough times.
* His story was met with great pain from various dog-owning deities in the Pantheon. None of them hope to be put in such a situation and were all supportive of Travis upon his ascension:
** Dorothy attributed much of her success in Oz to her dog Toto. Both kids were at similar age during their adventures and sometimes continue to meet up with their respective dogs.
** Ken is even younger than Travis, yet he seemed to take the ascension more maturely than most. His own dog Koromaru has helped him cope with the death of his own mother at an early age. Travis wants Ken to check his own mind in case it is in need of a checkup.
** Kiba offered to teach Travis in the ways of the Inuzuka clan. The farm boy simply declined, preferring to rely on his weapon for protection.
** There is one more deity to discuss. Though he has yet to make his presence known to the boy, he suspects that the man has been keeping watch. Whenever it seems like he has run into danger from thieves, they seem to back off or get hit with a stray bullet. Travis believes that John Wick has been observing him from a distance. While John Wick has his misgivings with the shooting, he understood that the kid had no other choice on the matter. Many believe that John Wick has made it known to the criminal world that the boy is off limits, lest they want to deal with ''him'' as well. That threat alone would be enough for most people in the House of Crime not to rob him.
* It's no surprise that the two still hold grudges against bears and wolves. The former can be somewhat forgiven since his brother was messing with a bear cub. That hasn't stopped Bashmaster to send bears after the two on occasion. Their disdain of wolves is far greater since it led to Old Yeller's death. Zinogre has yet to notice them, but it seems a confrontation between the two is inevitable.
* Travis was visited by the billionaire Bruce Wayne, who handed him a cash donation. He later conversed with the boy, talking about how he lost both of his parents to a robber. He told Travis to send his mother Bruce's regards before leaving. He was grateful for the money, but figured he was used to this since he housed orphans such as Richard Grayson and Jason Todd.
* Krypto wanted to give the two a present for making it into the Pantheon: a flight through the area in a wagon. It was harrowing at first, but the screams quickly turned into laughs as they went faster than they have ever gone before.
** Despite sympathy for the boy among the superhero community, his placement has been highly contended when it comes to killing human lives. One of the biggest examples was when Wonder Woman snapped the neck of Maxwell Lord to break Superman out of his mind-controlled rampage. It was a hotly debated subject that nearly tore the DC Pantheon in two. Travis' ascension brought up old wounds. Superman and Wonder Woman both came to his temple to discuss the subject. While the two still disagree on the decision, they decided not to let that force them to come to blows.
* The first Jojo made sure to honor one of the few animals on his list of those who went through [[TheHeroDies heroic deaths]]. He handed a medal to Old Yeller for saving Travis from various animals in its mortal life.
* While hunting in the House of Beasts, the two were confronted by a large cat with a red mane. Travis pointed his gun at the creature, but Old Yeller stepped forward instead. After a brief stare, the dog allowed the lion to walk up to Travis. To the boy's surprise, the lion nudged against him in support instead. Turns out the lion was Simba, who understood what it was like to lose a father.
* Was visited by Ash Ketchum who had one question in mind; how long did it take for the two of them to get along? He asked this because his relation with his Pikachu was extremely fraught at first. Turns out Travis had a similar experience. The dog had a habit of stealing meat from their house. He even thought Old Yeller was a pest until the dog saved his little brother. Ash was relieved that even those two had issues getting along at first.
* As a federal agent, Jack Bauer has come across such circumstances multiple times over his career. He was surprised that such a title would be handed to such a young man, but he was impressed with how Travis handled the situation and the aftermath. As such, Jack sees Travis as worthy of the title.
* Unlike other protagonists in the Pantheon, Malcolm has no qualms about blasting foes for the safety of his crew. Often times, it happens because Malcolm has simply run out of patients and thought offing the problem would be an easier solution. Malcolm has misgivings with handing the title to a boy who had suffered enough as it is but is glad Travis at least gets to see his dog again.
* Stitch once pretended to be a pet for Lilo as a cover for escaping his captures yet the two managed to be TrueCompanions. The two paid the boy a visit and had fun afterwards. Stitch did scare Old Yeller at first, but the dog recognized that Stitch meant no harm in the end.
* Courage has done all he could to protect his owners from all manners of evil. While many would say that his trials were more difficult that Old Yeller's, he commends the Labrador Retriever for performing what was essentially a HeroicSacrifice. That and Old Yeller is far braver than he ever could be.
* The same can be said for Scooby-Doo. After Travis and Old Yeller stumbled upon a haunted forest, they bumped into Mystery Incorporated. After some scares from some ghosts, the gang managed to capture them. In typical fashion it turned out to be humans Mr. Burns and Smithers. The two were trying to keep people out of public land so they could mine some gold without anyone noticing it.
* Garfield is one of the few deities in the Pantheon who finished the story without a single tear shed. In fact, he claimed that getting rid of that 'mangy dog' made it a happy ending. Many in the Pantheon was shocked by the claim, though it isn't that surprising given his disdain towards dogs. Needless to say, Old Yeller's displeasure of Garfield is mutual.

* NotSoDifferent from: [[Pantheon/CouplesArchetypes Romeo and Juliet]]
* The House of Love turned to the streets of 19th century France to the story of Christian, who told the story of a {{Dramedy}} [[WholeEpisodeFlashback through the means of a flashback]]. It told of the time when he entered Paris as a [[NaiveNewcomer naive poet]] striving to make it big. It was there that he was drawn to the Moulin Rouge, a nightclub/brothel that was the hottest sell in the city. There, he met the star attraction, a HighClassCallGirl named Satine. He was instantly smitten. What followed was a tale of wonderful and tragic woe, [[spoiler: ultimately ending in her death due to tuberculosis]]. The house took interest in the story, particularly when [[BreakHisHeartToSaveHim she rejected his proposition so that her jealous suitor Duke wouldn't go after him]]. With that story in mind, the deities there decided to bring not only Christian but also Satine. Finally together, the couple settled down to have their happy ending.
* The couple draw a big crowd from the House of Music as well. The movie is believed to have helped revive the {{Musical}} film genre. It didn't matter that many of their songs were a mix-mash of cover songs fro the modern era, it was the way it was depicted that made the songs enjoyable.
* The Greek Goddess of Love took a liking to the couple, especially how Christian was able to wrest her from the Duke, [[spoiler: even if it didn't work out well for them in the end]]. The couple has been sprinkled with gifts of wine and flowers in the hopes of rekindling their relationship.
* Now that they can be together, Satine set up a cabaret of her own filled with dancers from all over the Pantheon. Their temple quickly became the new Moulin Rogue for all to attend. Within is a memorial of Zidler, her former boss. Sure, he was the one who propositioned her to the Duke, but she knew he was doing so for the best of the Moulin Rogue.
** There was one time when she invited a group of people claiming to be from the Transsexual, Transylvania. Little did they know that their leader, the infamous Dr. Frank-n-Furter had plans of his own. It didn't take long before he took over the temple for himself, transforming all the dancers to his own troupe for his entertainment. Thankfully, others received word of the takeover and drove him out. Frank was subsequently slapped with a restraining order from both the couple and the building.
* As with many couples in the Pantheon, a lot of comparisons have been made between the two and Romeo and Juliet. This is especially true as the two [[StarCrossedLovers couldn't have been more different from each other]]. [[spoiler: At least one of them survived in the end.]] Still, both are happy to have their happy ending in the Pantheon.
** In that regard, the two have more in common with Tony and Maria. [[spoiler: In Maria's case, he comforted Christian for the loss of his love in a gender reversal.]] In fact, Maria suspected she had similar misgivings against the wilder suitor at first until they found out [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold there was a soft side under that exterior]]. One can often see the two couples go on double dates with each other in classic diners. The two aren't that too far off in terms of timelines.
* Ichiro and Ryoko watched the couple's relationship flow and ebb throughout their lifetimes in the hope that they [[BreakUpMakeUpScenario complete the loop that many of their followers go through]]. [[spoiler: Which made it more tragic to them when the two made up when she was already about to die.]] Thus they were excited to see the two have arrived in the Pantheon. Both were willing to help them sort out their new leash of life as well as where to go from there.
* Much of their problems in their story stemmed from a wealthy suitor code-named the Duke of Monroth. The Duke was to invest in the cabaret to keep it flowing and he would receive Satine as his prize. Christian's arrival threatened those plans and he raged war against the man. This [[VillainousCrush infatuation with her]] was the cause of many of their problems and was openly sponsored by none other than Lezard Valeth. The couple have made great pains to make sure he doesn't decide to bring the Duke over to bring them more misery.
** Christian's ascension means that another of Jack Dawson's followers have made the big time. Jack and Cal share deistic powers between [[RichSuitorPoorSuitor rich and poor suitors to love interests]]. Of course, Cal wasn't too happy about getting one-upped and has banked rolled multiple suitors towards Satine in the hopes of breaking the two apart.
** The two brought the attention of Rose Bukater, survivor of the ill-fated Titanic... and also the love interest of Jack Dawson. [[spoiler: Christian felt that he had a similar pain to that of Rose when both of their love interests died.]] She proved to be the perfect person in handling their reunion. At least on their part, the couple do not have to worry about their rich suitor ruining things between them.
* Apparently, tragic figures compliment the French, so the couple thought when they came upon the case of Jean Valjean. Satine in particular took the fate of him and Fantine to heart. She understands the dangers of prostitution and wanted to speak her mind about Valjean abandoning her at her time of need. Yet it was is care of Cosette that won her over. In the end, the three French people threw their anger at Javert for his pointless pursuits. Their temple has become a popular hiding place for the runaway when escaping the officer.
* As with all other couples Ato-ko Shirogane has sought them out in order to break up their relationship. In this case, she has an easy line of attack: focusing on Christian's insecurities in dating a call girl along with Satine's suspicions that her lover will never accept her for who she is.

* Opposed by: The House of Pantheon/MagicAndSorcery, the Pantheon/Warhammer40000 Universe
* Under watch by: The Houses of Pantheon/LawAndJustice and Pantheon/CrimeAndTransgressions
* Eons ago, [[DivineConflict there was a war in Heaven]] by Lucifer for control of Heaven. The angel Aztar would side with him, but repent his sins and pray for redemption. The Presence answered those prayers and determined he would become a champion for justice; becoming the Spirit of Vengeance, ensuring no sinner would escape justice. He would punish all [[KarmaHoudini karma houdinis]], one man at a time, [[CruelAndUnusualDeath no matter how grisly]], [[OmniscientMoralityLicense all part of the Presence's ineffable plan]]. To keep the Spectre grounded, he would take on human hosts. The most noteworthy and current is Jim Corrigan, a 1930s detective killed by criminals. Later on, Crispus Allen would also take the role of the Spectre. In the pantheon, Hal Jordan spent time as the Spectre and tried to reshape him into the Spirit of Redemption [[TheAtoner to make up for his own actions as Parallax]]. They would discover [[DemonicPossession the true nature of Parallax]], and the Spectre would help with Hal's revival.
* At first, the Spectre assumed that YHVH was the same as Yahweh aka the Presence, his multiverse's God. He figured that [[GodIsEvil his attitude]] was some sort of SecretTestOfCharacter like the time He acted [[http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/10/104521/2126072-presence.jpg completely insane]]. It'd later turn out YHVH was ''not'' the Presence, and the Spectre was offended by the Mad God of Order's actions as God. The Spectre got along better with God in the House of Faith, but made it clear "You are not the Creator I serve". Of course, since his Creator has ascended, he defers strictly to Him.
* As the Spectre, his job is to punish evil-doers; specifically, those [[KarmaHoudini who escaped mortal judgement]]. As such while he hates the GUAE on principle, most did get their just desserts and aren't a focus; [[StoryBreakerPower which may be for the best]]. The Justice League and Justice Society of America appreciate the help, but they find him [[HorrifyingHero seriously disturbing]] and [[CruelAndUnusualDeath the sadistic punishments he performs]] go against [[ThouShaltNotKill their own moralities]]. Still, it's even worse to tell him not to kill since [[AndIMustScream he has ways around that]]. The Spectre may not have found friends with the superhero community, but he has found friendship with Nemesis and Johnny Blaze. Though the Spectre's specialty isn't punishing people for hubris, he thinks she's doing a great job. Him and Johnny Blaze have a ''lot'' in common for being spirits of vengeance. Having once served under Lucifer, Aztar's not going to complain about this.
* ''Hates'' the Godhand. Their mission statement to pervert the very concept of karma so [[NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished goodness is punished]] and [[KarmaHoudini evil is rewarded]] [[BerserkButton struck a nerve with the Spectre]]. Guts is glad to have him on his side, and the Godhand [[OhCrap are terrified]]. His views on this matter have led the Spectre to pity Ramza Beouvle greatly.
* Though ultimately a force of justice, the Spectre [[GoodIsNotNice not a nice guy]]. As in, ''[[HeroWithAnFInGood borderline villainous]]''. He possesses an astounding LackOfEmpathy and [[{{Sadist}} grim satisfaction in punishments]], only alleviated by [[AssholeVictim his victims being far more evil than he could ever be]]. It's why he's bonded to a human host in the first place; the Presence realizes he needs humanity to keep him in check. Despite his dark personality, [[OmniscientMoralityLicense he's permitted to do so because it works out in God's favor]]. Of course, that may play into why the Presence hasn't taken the burden of being the Spirit of Vengeance off of him; He needs the Spectre for a job, but cannot accept him until he learns humanity.
* It's worth noting that Aztar's not the original Spirit of Vengeance. That would belong to Eclipso, who fell to evil completely and has become the poster boy for DarkIsEvil and one of the deadliest, [[OmnicidalManiac most omnicidal]] beings in existence. No matter what you think about the Spectre, he's way better suited for the job than Eclipso. And even he thinks Robot Santa goes too far in his KnightTemplar ways.
* The House of Magic is no fan of the Spectre. When he was tricked by Eclipso into thinking magic was the source of evil, the Spectre went on a rampage without a human host to ground him, devastating the sorcerers of Earth and ''killing'' the wizard Shazam. They've warned the Spectre never to try this again, and are preparing to take him down just in case. Nowadays, the Spectre figures that Melkor is the source of evil.
** Was happy when an old Justice Society colleague of his, Kent Nelson, ascended to the pantheon as the host for Doctor Fate. When they finally met Nabu was wary of him at first, due to the fact that he himself was the final victim of the aforementioned rampage against magic. Seeing as how it was a hostless Azar that had done the deed, Fate agreed to overlook this and will work with him so long as he has a human host.
* In spite of his loyalty to the idea of Justice, both that house and the House of Crime is keeping their eye on Aztar. He has a bad tendency to declare that AllCrimesAreEqual. Mercifully for reality, it's not to the extent of [[OmnicidalManiac the Dark Judges]]. At the very least, he and the Living Tribunal get along due to having previously teamed up to protect their respective universes. The Presence Himself had to warn the Spectre to never interfere with the Warhammer 40000 universe. The sheer [[CrapsackWorld grimdarkness]] and evil of that universe would drive him completely insane.
* There are a number of supervillains out there whom the Spectre has tried to judge, only to be hit by TheWorfEffect. He tried to judge Darkseid, however, the BalanceBetweenGoodAndEvil made it futile. Darkseid would later have his followers humiliate him in [[ComicBook/{{FinalCrisis}} his fall from Heaven]]. The Spectre also tried to judge Nekron after Nekron made him a Black Lantern, however as he was TheSoulless it didn't work. The Spectre still wishes to make them pay for their massive amounts of sins. The Spectre also isn't permitted to judge [[Pantheon/{{Laughter}} the Joker]] or Vandal Savage. The Joker, being criminally insane, can't be judged for his actions. Vandal, however, has the Mark of Cain, so he is already punished. The Spectre finds this outrageous, and Vandal has taken advantage of this. Also, he's unclear as what to do with [[Pantheon/MindGames Kirei Kotomime]] due to getting his just desserts but being revived.
* Despite TheWorfEffect getting the best of him, the Spectre has managed to fight against a fair number of [[EldritchAbomination eldritch beings]]. Such as the time he wrestled with the Anti-Monitor at the dawn of time, preventing him from subverting creation. Whenever the Anti-Monitor tries to attack the Pantheon, he's the first to get at him.
* Naturally, the Spectre spends time in the Houses of Pantheon/{{Angels}} and Pantheon/{{Ghosts}}. Many angels find him creepy, even the powerful Archangel Michael and Manwe. Sure, as a force of justice and loyalty to God he's on their side, but they don't like his NominalHero nature. Michael, in particular, feels he reminds him of [[KnightTemplar his more ruthless days]], and Aztar has stated that he's not the same Michael as the one from his multiverse. The House of Ghosts are for the most part scared of him and would rather he stay away.
* Naturally, the Spectre's no fan of Lucifer, however, does admit he's better than YHVH. Or the Castlevania, for that matter. The SMT one, however, the Spectre's oddly amiable with. He can get behind his desire for judgement and justice but believes he needs to abandon YHVH completely to be worthy of justice. Doesn't like DemonicPossession, due to his experiences with Asmodel hijacking him and Parallax getting bonded with him. [[spoiler:Or the time Mxyzptlk took over him.]]
* Heavily disapproves of the destructive Galactus and Beerus for all they've done, however, they were quick to point out despite their "villainy" they serve a higher purpose. [[NotSoDifferent Much like The Spectre, really]]. The Spectre seems to be more accepting of Eliphas. Often hangs out in the House of Vengeance. As a vengeful spirit, he treats Hisako as a "little niece" of sorts.
* Due to his own experience fighting [[TheAntiGod the Great Evil Beast]], the Spectre worries about the PrimordialChaos. Particularly concerned with Amatsu-Mikaboshi, who comes off as an even worse version of Nekron to him.

* Interested in: [[Pantheon/LightAndBrightness Necrozma]]
* Conflicting Opinion: [[Pantheon/{{Angels}} Imperius]]
* Today was quiet one with the air a still and frigid chill even with the sun in the middle of the sky. Yet all would not be quite well for long on this fine, fine day. It was at this time the Pantheon/{{GUAE}} had secretly set up a large encampment somewhere off in the House of Pantheon/{{Nature}}. A dispatch team from the Pantheon/{{GUAG}} eventually got word and were sent to scout out such a place, though they could never of anticipated what happens next. Beings and creatures like the Terraformars and "Hunter" Series [=BOWs=] have suddenly appeared out of the blue to assault the place, yet something is off about them. They aren't hostile to them and made way to the encampment, seemingly driven by an unknown single-minded purpose through it all. Patches of their bodies glow a golden hue, their eyes an amber yellow, their clustered veins now opaque by it all. Accompanying them are figures covered head to toe in golden armor, some utilizing powers of electricity and the spectra of light itself. As these mysterious forces drove out the GUAE in numberless hordes the base was soon assaulted by lightning from the sky before soon being buried by roots.
** The team bore witness to the entire thing, even as the forces disappeared quick as they came, and were left speechless. Soon after trying to process what just happened a voice from above spoke to them. The voice revealed herself as the Daedric Prince, Meridia, and admitted responsibility to the base's annihilation as well as tipping the GUAG off of such a movement. "But for what purpose?" They asked, and Meridia responded that it was a way to reveal herself. She cited that they intended to practice actions most profane on the House and opted to stop their defilement. The GUAG's presence here serve as additional witnesses to her entrance to the Pantheon, which they were. The same also goes for them seeing the sheer collateral damage wrought by her attack.
* An unusual member among the many Daedric Princes, Meridia did not actually start out as one herself. Once, there was a time in which she was better known as Merid-Nunda, a Magne-Ge or Star-Orphan. As a Child of Magnus she joined with him in [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere fleeing from partaking in the creation of Nirn]] to Aetherius when he realized the sheer cost of such a project. Merid-Nunda, however, [[AllOfTheOtherReindeer would at some point be cast out from Aetherius for consulting with "illicit spectra"]] and when the Daedra chided her for trespassing in Oblivion she willed a realm of her own thus and out of necessity she took on the mantle of Daedric Prince for herself. This once-Magna-Ge would be now from then on as Meridia, and the mortal races of Nirn will know of her light. The Pantheon, too, will bear witness the same having ascended under the domain of WhatIsOneMansLifeInComparison, of which she is a thoroughly believer in. If people, even including her own loyal followers, have to perish to achieve what she views as a greater good then so be it.
* If there's one fact that's very well known about Meridia would be her absolute hatred of undeath itself. Be it from the dead that walk once more to those who actively practice in such a thing Meridia will see to it that they be destroyed. It is why she is one of Molag Bal's {{Arch Enem|y}}ies as the Lord of Brutality was responsible for the conception of undeath itself, among many other things. This belief of hers persists in the Pantheon, declaring herself to any of the undead and necromancers present and vowing to see the House of Pantheon/{{Undead}} be obliterated someday. Theories arose in that the House's existence may of drawn Meridia to the Pantheon in the first place. There stands two individuals at the pinnacle of such animosity, Nekron and Nagash, for not only their actions in their home universes but also the ones done to spite her. Galakrond is also quite high on that list, being a dragon returned to the living and who's sheer gluttony has him devour just about anything, his victims themselves turning into undead. A force of nature, so to speak. The tipping point came when after when in one of his rampages he demolished an entire temple dedicated to her. Meridia, [[TranquilFury very calmly]], assaulted him with a {{Pillar Of Light}} aimed straight at [[EyeScream the Ur-Dragon's eyes]]. She only ceased when other Overdeities stepped in to drive him off and stop her wrath, concerned that she'll take out her anger on the surroundings as well and escalating the damages.
--> ''The undead are foul, unnatural things. Some of my rivals take pleasure in these abominations. Not Meridia. I wish these creatures destroyed.''
** We could not stress the ''absolute'' part of her hatred towards undead enough. Meridia is [[KnightTemplar indiscriminate]] in her drive to wipe them off the face of the world itself. It matters not if they aren't evil or have done a lot of good things in the end like with [[Pantheon/ConquestAndConquerors Talion]] or [[Pantheon/FacialAttributes Squigly]] nor does it matter if they are only partially so like if they are a {{Dhampyr}}. She even scoffs at the existence of [[Pantheon/{{Destinies}} The Guardians]], viewing them as mere puppets brought from their tombs by their so-called light.
** It also comes as a given that she is a fierce opponent to the entire House of Pantheon/DarknessAndShadow along with any deity associated with the shade. As far as Meridia is concerned, [[TautologicalTemplar the "good" ones are too afraid to walk with her in the light]].
* Her hatred of the unliving, along with her [[DivinelyAppearingDemons divinely depictions and presence]] and acting as the BigGood during [[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsOnline Molag Bal's Planemeld]] often leads to attributions that she is a "benevolent" Daedric Prince by many. This is a very big mistake and you should ''not'' mistake her actions or her words as genuine altruism. What good she does is simply a consequence of her self-interests. This is the same Daedric Prince who had zero problems supporting her Ayleid followers, a race who were notorious for their cruelty to humanity of which they enslaved. The most notable of her assistance to them would be [[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsIVOblivion the time she gave help to Umaril the Unfeathered]], saving his life where upon he would come back to try and [[RageAgainstTheHeavens overthrow the Nine Divines]] in revenge for the Wild Elves' downfall. To say nothing of her tendency to manipulate people and sacrifice them and her tendencies to inflict DisproportionateRetribution if displeased or crossed.
** It for this reason that, after the GUAG reported Meridia's entrance in the Pantheon, Cosmos and by extension many in the GUAG would rather not associate themselves with the Lady of Infinite Energies and as such frequently butt heads with eachother should the situation allow them to cross paths. Cosmos and the Alliance are firmly for prioritizing all life whereas Meridia would only look out for the select few. And the few are perfectly liable to be culled if she deems it necessary in some way, shape, or form. Both Cosmos and Meridia have since been common opponents of one another.
* In a bid to gather up allies to counter the ones Molag Bal had formed in the Pantheon alongside other entities and beings she deemed despicable, Meridia had manifested her to other entities in a bid to form an alliance of her own. Her first outing was... not quite successful, to say the least. While she had seen success in enticing Galeem after appealing to his perpetual conflict with Dharkon and sympathizing with it along with the Angels of Paradiso having no problem in following the Daedric Prince, her meeting YHVH went considerably less well. The two ended up being bothered by each-other more than anything else in the end. The Light of Destruction, due to its desire for the destruction of all things, was more so that and the relationship with it was even more strained with Meridia stating it's as simple-minded as [[BigRedDevil Mehrunes Dagon]]. They're on somewhat better terms [[AGodAmI when it's seeking to be worshiped as a deity]] though not by much. And The Radiance immediately began on bad terms as she is paranoid that Meridia's presence is yet another way in which she will eventually be eclipsed and forgotten. Not helping things was the Glister Witch's response to that which to this day has stuck with the infection that once plagued Hallownest:
--> ''Save yourself your delusions. A campfire could never hope to outshine a star, much less the break of dawn.''
** Her presence was not well received in the House of Pantheon/LightAndBrightness received either. Setting aside her willingness to ally with the Light of Destruction, just about everyone in that House were put off by Meridia's demeanor and though Ezalor, being the head of the sub-House itself, does try to keep her at bay it is undeniable she has a stake there due to her domains. Not helping things is her singling out Zs'Skayr, viewing him as an intruder, and Necrozma's, whom she expressed disgust towards its [[HumansAreBastards exploitation in the past by humanity]] and has continuously offered to her service to restore it to its glory days. Zs'Skayr both hates and is scared shitless by her while Necrozma is [[EveryoneHasStandards visibly disturbed by her]], especially after its HeelFaceTurn.
** Lumine, surprisingly, came up to her to offer an alliance. Emphasizing his similar associations with light and associations with angels Meridia deemed him worthy of an ally. It can be assumed Lumine did so to gain not only a very powerful ally but also [[BlingOfWar Aurorans]] at his command to further his goals of both enslaving and/or destroying the older gen Reploids and other inferior robots. Serving Meridia for such benefits in no way really goes against such wishes.
* As a being heavily associated with light and its spectra it would only come natural that the realm she carved from the chaos of the Void would reflect that. The Colored Rooms are a place of coral reefs and floating rock underneath a starry night sky, the floor holding it all together being the realm's solid luminescent waters. Aurorans roam the place. Mankar Camoran, the leader of [[ApocalypseCult the Mythic Dawn cult]], once [[UnreliableExpositor incorrectly]] attributed in his speech that Meridia's realm was that of the ever-dour and bleak Coldharbour... The realm of Molag Bal, her fiercest enemy. Suffice it to say, don't try to play off this piece of misinformation as fact. It's not as bad as [[BerserkButton messing with her shrines]], but don't test your luck.
* Has had a few notable relationships about two members of the Angiris Council, or in the case of Imperius and Malthael one member and one former member, respectively. In the case of the latter it is quite easy to boil down the relationship between the two as mutual opposition despite both being {{Fallen Angel}}s. For Malthael it involves his status as the [[TheGrimReaper Archangel of Death]] versus her associations with life energies and thus partially styles herself and partially depicted as a FriendToAllLivingThings (as much as that is put into debate countless times), so it would only come as natural that they'd clash. His motivations to KillAllHumans has also dampened the situation between the two given there are humans who do worship her.
** Imperius is a more complicated matter, however. Though both Meridia and Imperius work to maintain their ideal visions order, are cordial should it stay that way, and are willing to go through extreme lengths be it the Glister Witch working through her agents, manipulation, and sacrifices while Archangel of Valor while without hesitation be in the thick of it, they actually tend to clash quite a lot. While there's Meridia's nature as a Daedra, though connect demon to Daedroth is pretty loose, there's the difference in attitude. The Archangel is, at his core, utterly uptight and arrogant. Meanwhile Meridia, for as much as she is very manipulative and narcissistic, is comparatively ''less'' strict and is able to be nice and is able sincerely reward those who serve her well.
* She has a few artifact to her name as a Daedric Prince with her most famous Daedric artifact being Dawnbreaker, a golden ebony sword forged in holy light. With the ever-radiant Dawnstar Gem in its crossguard it is a weapon tailed to destroy the walking dead, burning them upon contact and even reportedly causing them to explode upon death. Simply put, it is their bane though there have been accounts of it also being effective against werewolves and even Daedra themselves. It is not an infallible weapon of divine judgement, however. Through the machinations of the Daedric Prince, Nocturnal, [[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsOnline it had one point been corrupted into a sword known as Duskbringer]] though it would soon be restored to its original form through the sacrifice of her champion, Darien Gautier. There are some who seek to return the blade to Duskbringer once more though Meridia has made it clear that anyone who attempts so will get suffer for their troubles.
** While it's not as well known she is also associated with the Ring of Khajiit, an artifact that grants its wearer silence in movement, enhanced speed, and even invisibility. It was once stolen by Rajhin, a famous Khajiit thief, who used such a ring to pull off grand heists and earned his infamy that persists even today. Eventually, his overuse of its powers made the artifact abandon him to his doom. now, the ring is an odd artifact to Meridia name, however, in that it is also the property of the Daedric Prince, Mephala, and it seems fitting to her considering her associations with lies and secrets. Perhaps it has to do with the fact that they're the only Daedric Princes who's spheres are obscured to mortal eyes? Who knows.
** [[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsVSkyrim During the events of Skyrim's civil war and the return of the dragons]] a necromancer defiled a temple in the providence, exploiting the lives lost to raise them as shades. Thus, the Prince sent out the Beacon of Meridia in an undisclosed location for an adventurer to find and be prompted to expel said necromancer, of which [[Pantheon/{{Hunters}} The Dragonborn]] accomplished and was granted Dawnbreaker. Others who stumble upon her Beacon are apprehensive at touching it, mainly so for the fact that they know that the moment they do so they'll be [[MemeticMutation assaulted by the Daedric Prince's lack of indoor voice]].
* Few individuals in the Pantheon could earn a special kind of enmity from Meridia. Included in this particular list is The Ancestor, who's actions brought ruin to not only to his family and blood but also the world around him. Necromancy, demon summoning which then created [[PigMan the Swinefolk]] and [[BodyHorror Formless Flesh]], an old colleague's witchery, deals with [[FishPeople the Pelagic]], and calling upon the cosmos' unholiness are all damning evidence. To Meridia, the Darkest Estate and its surrounding lands corruption in the air and earth itself are waiting to be burned by her light. [[spoiler:With the existence of the Darkest Dungeon and by extension the presence of [[GodIsEvil the Heart of Darkness]] is it any wonder why she hates the place so much?]] And that's not even going over [[spoiler:the Heart's]] rival, The Sleeper, which awaits it as soon as [[spoiler:it breaks free from its comet prison]].
* If a partially surviving Ayleid manuscript is anything to go by, [[TimeMaster Meridia has the ability to alter the rate at which time flows forward]] through the prismatic refraction of light. This piece of information has alarmed many deities in the House of Pantheon/TimeAndSpace, in particular setting [[Pantheon/TimeManipulation the Dahaka]] in motion to watch Meridia's actions. In that same manuscript it also mentions that her "real" role in history was lost, muddying the waters of what kind of entity she truly is. Meanwhile, [[Pantheon/HairStyles Cetrion]] caught wind of the claim and came to Meridia seeking an alliance on Kronika's behalf. Meridia bluntly refused, being unable to tolerate Cetrion and Kronika's familial connection to Shinnok, nor does she have any desire for the supposed balance Kronika seeks. For the Prince's part, she believes the Hourglass is belonging for more fitting hands in the end.
''The light of Meridia cleanses and purifies. There is nothing to fear from its brilliant embrace.''

* Conflicting Opinion
** Towards: [[Pantheon/TimeTravelling Homura Akemi]]
** From: [[Pantheon/OpposingFate Eldrad Ultharan]], [[Pantheon/AuthorityFigures Jim Raynor]]
* Opposes: [[Pantheon/AuthorityFigures Present and Future Zeno]] ([[spoiler:for the most part]])
* Respects: [[Pantheon/{{Demons}} Sparda]], [[Pantheon/SoldiersAndWarriors the Doom Slayer]]
* The personification of the human race. Spent 40,000 years manipulating humanity from the shadows before events forced him to take a more active role. Did not want to be worshiped, but humanity needed a god and he was the only one up to it. That said, he has [[https://youtu.be/Pq-6aj9sNvo?t=1m45s had some success in convincing them he's not really one... just better]].
* Ironically, while he is himself a rather "glass half-full" kind of guy, his power is proportional to the [[WorldHalfEmpty grimdarkness]] of the dimension he is in at the time. In Manga/{{Bokurano}}-land he is mightier than O-Haruhi-Sama, and in [[SugarBowl Teletubby-land]] he wields less than half his usual might, though still possessing great power. It's probably because he [[StrongAsTheyNeedToBe doesn't really need much power in worlds like the latter]] anyway, where things tend to be going fine.
* [[http://youtu.be/97CmxA1FA5s?t=14m7s Would like to note he does]] '''[[AvertedTrope not]]''' [[FantasticRacism want to exterminate xeno life wherever it is, and wouldn't mind living in peace with other alien races]]. [[http://youtu.be/97CmxA1FA5s?t=14m15s He'd just prefer they accept his idea of peace (mainly the aliens under his rule) and not the aliens' idea of peace (like exterminating all life in the galaxy or keeping humans like zoo animals)]]. Furthermore, he thinks the current Imperium's goal of trying to exterminate all aliens in the galaxy is not only impossible but also impractical, and is working day and night to fix this problem.
** However, he originally [[http://youtu.be/6-9XSiNfgk0?t=10m51s refused to allow the Tau to join the Imperium]] due to the fact they [[SeriousBusiness refuse to fight in melee]], but changed his mind when [[spoiler:Magnus]] informed him about [[http://youtu.be/6-9XSiNfgk0?t=15m22s one Tau named Commander Farsight who does fight that way and leads a small rebel faction of like-minded Tau]].
* For some reason, many of his followers have an intense hatred of ponies, especially [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic the divine ones]] in the Pantheon. The same thing goes for furries or anyone from the ''Starcraft'' universe. What his own views of these species are, well, that's one of the many questions about him that nobody knows.
* He learned of an {{Expy}} of his that is the BigBad in ''TabletopGame/StrikeLegion'', and after looking at her rule over her own [[TheEmpire Imperium]], he is ready to confront her for her crimes against Humanity should she ever ascend to the Pantheon, though is also pulling some strings in the Celestial Bureaucracy to ensure that she never ascends at all.
** His actions in his own universe were made out of necessity and the current state of his Imperium was beyond his control but his expy's actions are needlessly cruel and evil, plus her insistence on forcing Humanity to worship her as God is anathema to him.
** Has somewhat mixed feelings on the Empress' greatest enemies the Strike Legion. He respects them fighting against overwhelming odd, but dislikes how some of them [[ShoutOut remind him of]] the hostile aliens of his universe. They both agree against exterminating all alien life but the Strike Legion is not as much a supporter of the belief in subjating all alien life, though the Emperor has pointed out that [[JerkassHasAPoint the aliens of their universe aren't any better]].
* The God Emperor is the only being the Chaos Gods ever truly feared. He is the greatest embodiment of Order in their home universe and their eternal enemy, so much so that the Dark Gods have dubbed him as the Anathema.
** The God Emperor does not oppose the Chaos Gods for petty reasons such as power or influence, but because of his love and dedication to all Humanity. Without the Emperor to oppose them, the Chaos Gods would taint Mankind with their corruption, twisting and defiling all Humankind by their dark powers. His love for Mankind is so great that even on the brink of death, he chose to be eternally preserved upon the Golden Throne for all time, neither living nor dead. His will is constantly challenging the Dark Gods even as his body decays, trapping him in eternal torment as his soul suffers agony beyond measure lighting the Astronomicon to light the way for the Imperium.
*** What makes his sacrifice even greater is that he could have let himself die and be reborn in a new body but a single moment of lapse in concentration would result in Terra being overwhelmed by legions of Daemons, that would mercilessly butcher the hundreds of billions of people living on the planet and turn the homeworld of Mankind itself into an abominable Daemon World.
* Now and then, he will have enough of sitting on the Golden Throne and transfer his soul into a Tarrasque in order to REALLY shake things up. A healthy body to inhabit allows him to perform feats greater than what he can in the mummified remnants of his original body. Said feats include freeing the Eldar goddess Isha and Eldrad Ulthran from the clutches of Nurgle and Slaanesh respectively, rescuing his son Jaghatai Khan from a chronovortex, curb-stomping the armies of Chaos, etc. Slaanesh and Khorne are fuming in rage for this, Tzeentch offered no comment, and Nurgle ''was'' mad, but surprisingly got over it quickly.
* Now and then he gives Asura questioning looks. Some speculate that this is because he thinks that Asura may be one of his erased Primarchs, which would explain how he managed to create [[http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Angry_Marines The Angry Marines]]. Only the most pissed off being in the universe would suffice for such a Chapter.
** On a similar note, he gains a sad but proud look whenever he sees Gimli. This may be because of the grievous losses and near extinction the [[http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Squats Squats]] suffered through in their continued existence in the galaxy. He is also pissed off at the massive amount of stupidity that ensued when the Imperium realized the Squats [[http://1d4chan.org/wiki/File:The_results.jpg survived]]. Seeing the Adeptus Mechanicus, the Inquisition, and the Administratum argue about who to blame for losing the Squats really didn't make him happy.
* Though he is fully capable of interacting with the other gods in the immortal planes, he is unable to do much in the mortal realms, due to his avatar still being a dying corpse on the Golden Throne. Nobody wants to unplug it, uncertain of what will happen if they do.
** However, he did later get a [[WebAnimation/IfTheEmperorHadATextToSpeechDevice Text-To-Speech Device]] installed into the Golden Throne. He has become a lot more chatty since then.
-->'''[[AC:About fucking time! I have so many things to complain about.]]'''
* Despite the bitter and caustic manner he voices himself, the God-Emperor is genuinely sorrowful at what has become of his Imperium; his intended paradise of reason and science has been twisted into a despotic and bureaucratic mess, but with the installation of the Text to Speech device, he has begun restoring the Imperium to what it was meant to be.
* He's not too happy about [[Pantheon/NamingReferences Kars]] [[http://youtu.be/R9w_uoUHgiE?t=1m15s convincing The Adeptus Custodes to dress up like the Pillar Men]] in order to show him tribute.
* Upon learning that the traitor Primarch [[TheUnfavourite Magnus]] had ascended to the Pantheon he ordered Marneus Calgar and the Ultramarines to capture and bring him before the Golden Throne for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_cxfPPvX4Bg&t=2m58s judgement]].
** [[spoiler:A binary encoded message from the Captain-General of the Adeptus Custodes has revealed that Calgar has somehow succeeded in his mission and is now returning with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgmPFEu5_ck&t=0m11s Magnus]]]]. However, the Emperor's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bjBmT8y9PAU response]] to this development is not what anyone would have expected…
** [[spoiler:After a long heart to heart and revelation of previously unknown secrets the Emperor and Magnus have begun overcoming their mutual issues with each other. To prove his goodwill, the Emperor overpowered the Chaos God Tzeentch to restore]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bM8YGsAmeqE&t=5m33s Magnus's soul]]. Afterwards, the Emperor revealed that he intended to recover the Primarchs once more and fulfill Mankind's birthright as the masters of the Galaxy.
** To that intent he has since ordered the Ultramarines to [[http://youtu.be/bM8YGsAmeqE?t=19m48s discreetly recover]] [[spoiler:Vulkan's artifacts for the Salamanders to find and bring him along]]. Apparently, he thinks only they can get the job done.
-->'''[[AC:My reason says "FUCK NO, GET RID OF THAT BLUE BLOB OF NAMBY-PAMBY FECAL MATTER." But my institution says "SEND THEM TO DO SHIT AND STUFF WILL GO FORWARD." I will go with the latter because I have like prophetic powers and stuff.]]'''
* There are not many things that can bring a smile to his face. But one of those things that can are a [[http://youtu.be/Z_2nM1GEllg?t=1m46s Centurion from The Imperial Fists]]. [[spoiler:[[https://youtu.be/M56aycpd9kA?t=16m37s Who, as it turned out to even the Emperor's amazement, is his supposedly-dead son, Rogal Dorn of the Imperial Fists]]]].
* He also appears to have a very weird father-son relationship with the Captain-General of the Adeptus Custodes, calling him son and getting called Dad in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgmPFEu5_ck&t=0m11s return]].
* His alliance with Madoka Kaname is because she represents the hope humanity both needs and deserves. When he heard that [[spoiler:YHVH was planning to kill her, he became one of the masterminds of ''Fanfic/ThePantheonicRebellion''. He has since ordered three entire chapters of the Adeptus Astartes (Space Wolves, Salamanders, and Blood Ravens), three regiments of the Imperial Guard (Cadian 8th, Tanith 1st and Only, and Valhallan), 9 Bane Blades, 4 War Hound Titans, 2 Warlord Titans, and 1 Emperor Titan to Madoka's defense]].
* The Emperor abhors both YHVH and Lucifer, seeing the two of them as abominations that feed on human emotions and only cause suffering much like the Chaos Gods. [[spoiler:YHVH's order to have Madoka killed]] only intensified that disgust but he remembers that it was Lucifer who put all these events into motion.
* The Emperor has gained an alliance with another founder of the Magical Girl Sisterhood, Usagi "Serena" Tsukino, as well as another of the Sailor Senshi, Hotaru Tomoe, by the existence of an alternate universe wherein [[FanFic/LovehammerInc the Senshi were resurrected as the Emperor's daughters]].
* Homura Akemi reminds the Emperor too much of his fallen son, Horus. Both so filled with passion and drive, only to be twisted and broken. With the existence of a universe where [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/7642230/1/Puella-Stellae-Madoka-Magica Homura became the temporary host to the Emperor's soul while he acted as a replacement father to her]], creating a bond between them to the extent that she called him [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/7642230/5/Puella-Stellae-Madoka-Magica dad]], the Emperor has decided to try and convince her to abandon Lucifer.
** The Chaos Gods fear the possibility of this alliance occurring elsewhere in the Multiverse and within the Pantheon. Such an alliance would likely result in their destruction and as such, they act with all their powers to prevent this from happening.
* Has begun having [[https://youtu.be/FyeoBm5QFnA?t=8m28s humanity's history from before the Age of Strife]] written down and sent throughout the House of Knowledge for mass copying and distribution, angry at the fact that most of it is currently censored for some reason.
* The God Emperor is furious and greatly disappointed at the result of the [[http://warhammerfb.wikia.com/wiki/The_End_Times End]] [[http://1d4chan.org/wiki/The_End_Times Times]]. To see a world that has withstood multiple Chaos incursions [[spoiler:destroyed because of idiocy and treachery]] and the lives of billions of human lives lost as a result, has greatly infuriated Him.
** The Lord of Mankind has begun to consolidate His forces and made motions to ascend the remaining loyalist Primarchs and other champions of Mankind. His servants have shown an increased preparation for conflict and the other Gods fear the potential beginnings of the Second War in Heaven.
* After learning the end results of the End Times, the God Emperor has ordered His servants to apprehend the necromancer Nagash and bring the lich to justice, for both his crimes against Humanity and his actions during the End Times.
** He also gave hints that He seeks the ascension of the Warrior-God Sigmar Heldenhammer. A legendary Champion of Mankind that defeated the first Everchosen of the Chaos Gods and banished Nagash for more than two thousand years, Sigmar's arrival would be welcome sight within the Pantheon for the God Emperor.
* Upon being asked his opinion of both ''The Great Upheaval'' and ''The Pantheonic Rebellion'', The Emperor's response was rather simple.
-->'''[[AC:It's like some complete [[{{Jerkass}} asswipes]] suddenly invaded an exclusive girl's club, demolished all their belongings, and [[KillEmAll subjected all members to summary executions and/or humiliation]]. [[HereWeGoAgain And then another completely unrelated group came along]] and [[HumiliationConga did the same exact fucking thing all over again.]]]]'''
* As one of the foremost Champions and God of Humanity, the Emperor was one of the first deities to help the Master Chief fight the Flood. During the conflict, He, the Master Chief, Madoka Kaname and (much to his great reluctance) Lucifer combined powers to banish the Primordial and ensure its imprisonment outside the Pantheon. He now stands alongside the Spartan as the first line of defense against the Parasite should it ever escape from its prison.
** After the conflict, the Emperor made his thoughts on the Precursor very clear:
-->'''[[AC:These tentacle-fetish assholes are nothing if not the abominable embodiment of the [[AbusivePrecursors complete and total assholery that an ancient species can lay claim to]]. The one-time ultimate rulers of reality and evolution, they were [[NeglectfulPrecursors the shitty, neglectful grandparents of all that is life]]. Every living and non-living being in existence should let out a sigh of relief that [[PayEvilUntoEvil these assholes were hunted down and killed by their much abused creations.]]]]'''
** The danger of a Flood invasion of the Pantheon is great enough that he is even willing to [[EnemyMine join forces]] with the Chaos Gods to defeat it, as both sides agree that the Flood is a far greater threat than they are to each other.
* The Emperor has low views of [[TheSocialDarwinist Social Darwinism]], regarding it as a badly disguised Realpolitik underneath false science that has often been used as poor justification for [[ANaziByAnyOtherName cruel and inhumane actions]]. He is often found calling those who hold to this philosophy:
-->'''[[AC: [[{{Jerkass}} Brutish]] [[WhatAnIdiot asscracks]] with a survival-of-the-fittest mindset that think all "weaknesses" within the human species needs to be destroyed. Which would be all fine and dandy if that's what these fuckers were really doing, but usually they're too busy being pretentious pricks and trying to tear down everyone who's weaker than them, so they're [[{{Hypocrite}} actually accomplishing the opposite of]] [[{{Irony}} what they claim to stand for.]]]]'''
** He has come to conflict with En Sabah Nur and Charles zi Britannia over their philosophies and disregard for the lives and well-being of Humans.
* Odin and the God Emperor of Mankind met one another after several correspondences through their sons. The two came to instantly respect one another from their mutual struggle against great enemies of their peoples. The determination to overcome seemingly impossible odds and unbeatable foes in order to preserve one's people was resound in both figures. Odin's ages old struggle against Ragnarok and strings of fate was well known to the Emperor while the King of Asgard learned about the Master of Mankind's millennia of warfare against the foul Gods of Chaos. The two forged a powerful alliance with one another. Much to their mutual amusement, they both possessed the title of Allfather.
* [[WebAnimation/IfTheEmperorHadATextToSpeechDevice May or may have not]] been [[Pantheon/{{Profession}} a certain Cimmerian]] in a past life.
* Despite maintaining a presence within the Pantheon, being the God of Humanity and worshiped as a God-Emperor by his many worshipers, the Emperor still holds many reservations about the title of God. Many would go as far as to say that referring to Him as a God is actually demeaning, since as a Human being, He is so much more. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pq-6aj9sNvo&t=3m17s The Emperor prefers to be called The Man Emperor of Mankind]].
* As a proud proponent of [[http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Humanity_Fuck_Yeah HUMANITY FUCK YEAH]], the Emperor wishes that Humanity would stop doing stupid shit such as worshiping obviously [[GodOfEvil evil and malevolent entities]] (especially if they do so for the petty promises of power and fame), get their act together and finally [[https://youtu.be/97CmxA1FA5s?t=14m32s achieve their birthright]].
** For this reason, Rem sees the Emperor as one of the few humans she can stand. He spends his time with her trying to see the potential humanity can achieve, but every time he gets close to convincing her, some human in the Pantheon does something stupid and evil, and they're back at step one.
** This is also the reason he first began to take a look at the Elric brothers' journey, as one of their first landmark achievements as State Alchemists was to expose a false religion based around a sun god designed to convince the townspeople to get themselves murdered in a coup. Everything he saw after that proved them to be great champions of humanity's potential, to the point they even managed [[spoiler:to impress [[Pantheon/SourcesOfInformation The Truth]], an entity whose entire design centered around punishing humans for thinking they could play God with transmutation knowledge]]. Needless to say, the Emperor approves.
** He's also offered his full support to Philemon and Igor for their service in guiding the Persona-using human youths of the Pantheon into fighting back divine entities to protect humanity. Their most recent Wild Cards, Yu Narukami and Ren Amamiya, are particularly impressive, as Yu is proof that humans can seek and handle the truth even when it's uncomfortable or inconvenient to do so, while Ren is proof that humans can reject mundane nihilism and strive to achieve more in their lives than serving prisoner to corrupt systems.
*** As Nyarlathotep and Yaldabaoth are both proponents of humanity's hopelessness who refuse to let up even after being shown they're wrong, the Emperor considers them to be a danger akin to the Chaos Gods themselves. Once said Chaos Gods are finished being dealt with, they're next.
** With Android 17 [[spoiler:rising past his artificial programming from Dr. Gero's experiments to become the ultimate human, not only surviving near-elimination and self-destruction to win the Tournament of Power but also using his wish selflessly to restore the erased universes]], the Emperor approves of the MVP chants 17 has gotten since his return from [[spoiler:the planet-wide cruise he earned for himself and his family. The Emperor even had a trophy created to commemorate 17's victory and valor. The old doc can suck it]].
* Zamasu's plan to exterminate all mortals "for godly justice" makes the Emperor sick to his goddamn stomach. Aside from the fact that the brutal species he observed at two points a thousand years apart was closer to Xeno than human, Zamasu refused to understand the concept of the Kais serving as guides to humanity when it was taught to him. While he applauds Gowasu for trying his best to get through to the prick, Zamasu was hellbent on judging and destroying those he could've instead facilitated towards greatness. For the Emperor, ThisIsUnforgivable.
** [[spoiler:He laughs at how blatantly the Tournament of Power proves not only just how dead wrong Zamasu was about how hopelessly destructive humans were, but also that Zeno, the childish TopGod who eliminated Zamasu from his multiverse, knew he was wrong the entire time]].
* Despises fellow "Emperor" Frieza for trying to destroy his Earth at least twice and callously destroying countless lives, including [[Anime/DragonBallZResurrectionF wasting one Earth city with a single beam as a way to say hello]]. Upon hearing that he's found the sudden interest of helping other despotic Social Darwinists achieve rule over their Earths, the Emperor of Mankind is not mincing words.
-->'''[[AC: I want that motherfucker eliminated. And I. Want it. Now. Oh, and his fucking one-eyed blond friend can get rekt too.]]'''
* He has a fondness for Duel Monsters, though he was a little disappointed that he couldn't use broken cards in the Pantheon. To compensate, he's constructed a deck based around powerful LIGHT monsters.
** Despite their enmity, he hosts regular Duel Monster tournaments with Tzeentch.
* He hates when people mention that one time he was being choked to death by, of all things, an Ork. Odin sympathizes with him for this; he is still getting shit for having been enslaved by space ants once.
* Few alien species love humanity as much as the Doctor. So it is rather conflicting for him to side with its patron who thinks little of him or any other aliens. The Emperor hopes that the humans in that world will learn not to rely on the Time Lord's help all the damn time.
* Is not a big fan of Zeno for being so childish with ultimate divine power. [[spoiler:That SecretTestOfCharacter with the Tournament of Power did impress him, though]].
* Has the absolute loyalty of Father Balder and Bayonetta after hearing of Balder's tale through Sanguinius and responding by raising the case to the Court of the Gods to have Rosa, Balder's wife and Bayonetta's mother, resurrected as her husband's herald.
** Conversely, the Emperor lauded the demon Sparda as an honorable figure, and had called that he would reach the Pantheon well before he actually did[[labelnote:*]]he's convinced two or three others saw it coming as well, but can't be certain of whom[[/labelnote]]. When asked why, he told his son about the legend of the Dark Knight from the other side of Balder's world who woke up to justice and singlehandedly sealed his demon brethren to stop them from enslaving all of humanity. Sanguinius and other human-proponent angels would welcome Sparda openly to the Pantheon.
* With so many threats both within and outside of humanity, the Emperor of Mankind has decided that a new order needs to be created to protect humanity, with himself in the helm. For this, he has founded the Pantheon/OrderOfHumanity to serve the interests of mankind as a whole.
* He also highly approves of [[Pantheon/SoldiersAndWarriors the Doom Slayer]], who, funnily enough, also receives the approval of [[Pantheon/ObsceneActions Khorne]]. While his staunch and unwavering defense of mankind earned him the Emperor's favor, the Slayer's brutal, hatred-fueled methods of dispatching the demonic hordes please Khorne. The Slayer doesn't mind either way.

* TeethclenchedTeamwork with: [[Pantheon/KillersAndAssassins Ezio Auditore]] (one-sided on his part... sort-of), [[Pantheon/AntiVillains Shay Patrick Cormac]] (again, one-sided for him... sorta)
* Pitied by: [[Pantheon/RacialAppearances Esmeralda]] (Tatsumi only)
* Scares: [[Pantheon/{{Memes}} JonTron]] (Sheele only)
* Opposes: [[Pantheon/NiceAndNasty Masato Kusaka/Kamen Rider Kaixa]]
* Ascended because Esdeath is in the Pantheon, and they feared that her presence would bring another tragedy like the ones they had to go through. What they didn't expect was all of them appearing in the Pantheon together [[spoiler: especially given how some very bad things happened to most of them]]. Still, it was a very joyous reunion for all of them. Now, the full force of Night Raid is in full gear.
* Their arrival did not go unnoticed by Esdeath herself, of course. Not soon after they arrived, she was the first one to appear before them. Before they could prepare for an impending fight, Esdeath quickly grabbed Tatsumi and kissed him full on the mouth, [[{{Troll}} fully aware that his fellow Night Raiders were watching]]. Mine was clearly ''[[ClingyJealousGirl not happy]]'' and nearly rushed over to to confront the general before being restrained by teammates, [[spoiler:[[DeathByAdaptation which is a good idea given what happened the last time she did it]].]] Tatsumi and Mine aside, the few of the other member's reactions to Esdeath are as follows:
** Najenda: Still disappointed in her.
** Susanoo: [[spoiler: Regrets falling to her and wants another go.]]
** Chelsea: Hates her [[spoiler: for desecrating her body.]]
* "Necessary evil" means exactly what it says; to commit evil deeds for the sake of good. They don't even consider themselves as heroes despite being clean-cut good guys. Because of that, they put a notice on Bane, who considers himself as such [[spoiler: though destroying Gotham just to get revenge on Batman makes him anything but]].
* As the Pantheon is nowhere near as corrupt as the Empire they originated from, it gives Night Raid some time to wind down and relax somewhat. They still deal with the occasional CompleteMonster, but not as much as they used to.
** In an effort to conform to the LighterAndSofter nature of the Pantheon, they [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BNEePLbgCf8 have occasionally attempted to re-brand themselves as the]] ''[[Series/MightyMorphinPowerRangers Mighty Morphin' Night Raid Rangers]]''.
* Evil gods from the House of Family stay ''far'' away from them, since they are willing to ([[EstablishingCharacterMoment and did]]) kill families who torment and torture others for shits and giggles.
* Since they ''are'' serial killers, the House of Justice would like nothing more than to bring them in to make them face their sins. [[Pantheon/MainHouse Cosmos]] is the only one keeping that from happening.
* There was a time that Chelsea felt that Bulat and Sheele were failures as assassins due to their companions, something that she believed assassins can't afford to have. After spending time with Tatsumi however, she felt herself growing attracted to him to the point that she finds herself moving to the risky front-lines to impress him. It was at that point that she relized that she no longer had the right to insult Bulat and Sheele anymore. [[spoiler: Her actions wound up killing her, but she doesn't regret what she did.]]
* Their relations with Ezio Auditore is a bit… strained to say the least. They at first seemed to interested in joining ranks with a legendary assassin, but Ezio made it clear that he's less than pleased with how they do things; that is, killing anyone who is '''remotely''' involved, while the Assassin Brotherhood tries to minimize the number of causalities as much as possible. Ditto with Shay Patrick Cormac, the infamous [[HeroKiller Assassin Hunter]], who [[WhatTheHellHero outright chastised them]] for their bloody rampages. However, after hearing just how [[CrapsackWorld terrible their world is]] [[KickTheDog and their marks are far worse than what the Assassin Brotherhood and the Templar Order deal with]], they (separately) let it slide, and they seem willing to work with Night Raid, although reluctantly. But given how much Ezio and Shay don't like each other, the group makes sure they aren't in the same House when negotiating with either.
** Unbeknownst to them, Shay plans to find a way to eliminate them (and Esdeath) one day, and when he does, he will do it ''alongside Ezio'', who in turn is actually open to the idea, though more on Esdeath than Night Raid.
* Maya Fallegeros seems interested in their abilities against Danger Beasts and hopes to recruit them in order to rebuild Night Hand. The group's unsure on whether or not to accept her invitation. However, it is through her that they met the siblings [[Pantheon/{{Combat}} Jago]] and [[Pantheon/OtherWeaponTropes Black Orchid]], giving the trio more allies against Ultratech.
* As they make a living hunting down bastards, they have become allies with Kenshiro, who pledges to aid them.
* Leone seems to get along with Yang [[{{Expy}} as they seem a lot alike]]. She's pretty solid with Blake too [[spoiler: and thinks she'd look cuter with her cat ears]].
* Oren Pierre Alfonzo is interested in seeing Bulat in action. To the surprise of no one, Bulat is interested in learning about Oren, but the pastry chef told him not to get any ideas, as he's attracted to only [[Pantheon/AntiVillains one man]]. Chelsea is also Oren's frequent visitor.
* It goes without saying that Tatsumi has a way with girls. Though he sometimes wishes he doesn't have such luck, and who could blame him after seeing ''Esdeath''? He often confines with Issei, who doesn't mind the attention, but can see where he's coming from. He also sported an OddFriendship with Esmeralda, who knows what it's like to gain attention from the wrong people.
* [[spoiler: The House of Prophecy claimed that Tatsumi and Mine's relationship will not end well. They declared that even if it's true, they will enjoy as much time they have together.]]
* Mine is pretty close to Ange as they both experienced the dark side of racism. She also admires how good she is with guns and explosives, having learned to use them in a short amount of time. She does wonder if Ange's AntiMagic can affect Imperial Arms, though. Ange also commented that she [[Creator/YukariTamura sounds a lot like]] [[Pantheon/{{Upbringing}} Hilda]].
* Sheele scares the crap out of [=JonTron=] because of [[VideoGame/ClockTower someone else who uses big scissors to kill people]]. He tried to 'stop' her by throwing wet pieces of ham at her. Not only did it (obviously) not work, but Sheele made it worse by cluelessly eating the ham on her face. He immediately collapsed to the floor like a toppled statue, having suffered the equivalent of 10 heart attacks at once. To add insult to injury, there were two iPods placed on both sides of [=JonTron=]'s hospital bed with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6TZieWmwKGM this song]] set on repeat and maximum volume. It caused him to immediately wake up from his coma, screaming at the top of his lungs. To the surprise of no one, the one behind all of it was [[Pantheon/CrueltyAndSadism Yuuki Terumi]].
* Not that Tatsumi was all that happy-go-lucky to begin with, but he wouldn't be quite the same after meeting Johan Liebert. Johan asked him if he ever regretted killing. Tatsumi stated that he never thought of it, only that he made his first kill after seeing his two childhood friends killed brutally. It's something that he didn't want to experience again. [[MindRape Johan took the moment to inform Tatsumi that]] [[spoiler:[[UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom he has indirectly caused EVERY death of his fellow Night Raiders]]]]. Tatsumi immediately went into shock as Johan went through a list:
** [[spoiler:Sheele's death]] at the hands of [[spoiler: Seryu]] occurred because [[spoiler:Seryu]] began to actively hunt down Night Raid to avenge the death of [[spoiler:her mentor, Ogre]], who Tatsumi personally killed.
** [[spoiler: Bulat's]] concern for Tatsumi's safety during their fight with the [[spoiler: Three Beasts]] definitely proved to be a hindrance to him. In addition, had Tatsumi just held off [[spoiler:Nyau]] for just a few more seconds, [[spoiler:Bulat would have been able to kill Liver, and thereby preventing his own death]].
** [[spoiler: Chelsea's]] death at the hands of [[spoiler: Kurome]] was caused by [[spoiler:her out-of-character, brash decisions]]. [[spoiler: Chelsea]] admits to herself that her out-of-character actions were the [[LoveMakesYouDumb result of her feelings for Tatsumi]], as well as her desire to impress him.
** [[spoiler: Susanoo]] was killed by [[spoiler: Esdeath]] when she used her recently acquired Trump Card, which had the ability to freeze time. to defeat him. The primary purpose of the Trump Card was to prevent Tatsumi from escaping her again after his escape at Mt. Fake.
** [[spoiler: Lubbock's]] death at the hands of [[spoiler: Izou]] was the result of [[spoiler: him trying to escape capture.]] [[spoiler: Lubbock was only captured]] because Syura was able to identify Tatsumi. Syura even admitted that he was not entirely sure that [[spoiler: Lubbock]] was a member of Night Raid, and only [[spoiler: kidnapped him]] because he was with Tatsumi.
** [[spoiler:Mine ended up in a coma (or killed depending on the incarnation)]] because of her decision to save Tatsumi from his [[spoiler: execution at the hands of Esdeath.]] The icing on the cake was that [[spoiler:Esdeath had no intention of getting Tatsumi killed, and he would have survived his apparent "execution", whether or not Night Raid would have saved him.]]
*** As Tatsumi stood there [[HeroicBSOD devastated]], his team found him and Johon left before anything could be done about it. Tatsumi was so completely frozen in shock that it took several visits to Dr. Tenma to snap him out of it. [[spoiler: Sheele, Bulta, Chelsea, Susanoo, Lubbock, and Mine]] also told him not to beat himself up over what happened to them, because anything could have happened and they don't regret their actions. He eventually got back to normal, and unfortunately for Johan he has now been blacklisted by Night Raid.
* As he is responsible for almost every bad thing that has happened to Norma's, they have also placed a mark on Embryo. It would be, however, rather difficult.
* Ra's has spoken an interest in their abilities and views them as a rival organization. Talia and Lady Shiva also wishes to test their skills to see just how deadly they are.
* Mine really hates Masato Kusaka for attacking anything not human, particularly the Orphnochs such as [[spoiler:[[Pantheon/{{Tics}} Takumi Inui]]]], even if they have no ill intent. It reminds her of how her life was back before she joined Night Raid. Though she does find it amusing how Esdeath also hates his guts. If someone like [[{{Jerkass}} Esdeath]] thinks you're an [[EvenEvilHasStandards irredeemable jerk]], then there must really be something wrong with you.
* They absolutely despises Ryoma Sengoku and Tenjuro Banno due to their stint as {{Mad Scientist}}s which reminded them of their enemy Dr. Stylish. Not to mention that they also put them as part of their assassination list after they found out that Sengoku has Stylish as one of his followers and Banno's ambition of initiating another Global Freeze in the pantheon, which has made their point to put a stop on them.

* Conflicting Opinion: [[Pantheon/{{Warhammer40000}} The Tau Empire]], [[Pantheon/{{Planning}} Commander]] [[Pantheon/{{Unpopularity}} Farsight]]
* Sometimes, it does [[GoodFeelsGood feel good doing the right thing in and of itself.]] However, there are often ulterior motives. Sometimes, it's just to butter them up. Sometimes, the ulterior motive is evil or at least non-benevolent. But then there are people who seek to benefit others because it benefits them as well and as such, everyone wins. This is the sort of man Professor Horace Slughorn is and as such, he was invited to the Pantheon to represent this ideology.
** Specifically, Horace Slughorn often handpicks promising students to join his Slug Club, a social club where he uses his connections to invite colleagues and other important figures to help promote his students so they may be able to achieve their full potential and promising careers in their future, likely ahead of what they could've done on their own.
** And what does Slughorn ask in exchange for these generous benefits in helping to secure his students' successful futures? Not much surprisingly, preferring to use his new connections for comforts such as sports tickets, sweets (especially his favorite, crystallized pineapple) and opinions in the newspapers. Many are a little surprised by this though some note given how he was retired when first introduced, it was likely he wished to enjoy his golden years in peace and comfort. Though meeting Harry Potter and Albus' convincing got him back into teaching.
* In fact, Idubbbz opposes him, fearing that he would fund bad Kickstarter and Indiegogo projects, even though Horace completely agrees with Ian that most of said projects are useless in the long run. He has a careful eye for prospects, after all, and won't fund someone who doesn't catch his eye.
* Some of the kinds of wishes future Puella Magi make with Kyubey to get their powers happen to be out of EnlightenedSelfInterest. As such, Slughorn pities those who've made such wishes such as Sayaka and Kyoko[[note]]Mami's was justifiably selfish, Homura's was selfless (and self-destructive given what she's now become), and Madoka's was ''both'' ultimately selfless and ultimately selfish[[/note]], and despises Kyubey for his manipulations so that their benefits are never earned.
* There are those who think that while the Tau Empire employs EnlightenedSelfInterest, the [[UnreliableNarrator possibility that]] they [[BrainwashingForTheGreaterGood use mind-control devices to make sure their allies don't forget about the "benefits everyone" part]]. As such, Slughorn doesn't know what to think of them. Or of its only representative so far, Commander Farsight.
* Sometimes logic calls for helping others in exchange for tangible future benefits, which Spock respects and has thus forged an alliance with Slughorn. Batman also understands the pragmatic benefits of what Slughorn represents.
* Trunchbull reminds him too much of Umbridge and conversely commends Matilda for her actions and is considering helping her out, given her intellectual and telekinetic potential.
* Given the mistakes they've done, Slughorn has pity for Celestia Ralgris, Kyoichiro Kuroi, and Raiden.
* Like Piglet for being able to stand by his friends even when he's afraid and loathes Djibril for being a DirtyCoward.

* Conflicting Opinion: [[Pantheon/TimeManipulation Homura Akemi]]
* Klaus first ascended upon uniting a war-ridden Europa by crushing all opposition with an iron fist. Some say that was excessive, but with the rampant [[MadScientist Sparks]] with their crazy inventions, he was the nation's only hope at that time. In all fairness, he has his empire is not a Byzantine clusterfuck like most; the only demand he makes of the nations he conquers is "Don't Make Me Come Over There", Which covers only two things: starting wars, and possessing the LostTechnology left behind by [[BigBad The Other]]. Otherwise, his empire is mostly peaceful. [[spoiler:At least before his…removal, after which war has resumed in his empire]], showing that dictatorships, regardless of intent, only last as long as they have a strong leader to keep everyone in line.
* Upon ascension, the first thing Klaus did (after getting his empire set up) was finally get the time to look at the advances of science [[AlternateHistory humanity can make]] ''[[AlternateHistory without the need of Sparks]]'' (and was told that it was precisely the fact that they had no Sparks that these advances can be made in the first place). Without Sparks, theoretical study was developed, which eventually led to atomic energy, computers, and decent aircraft (like airplanes, helicopters, and up to spacecraft).
** Also, without Sparks running rampant, societal progress was able to advance (more than just getting past the role of women and racism), leading to things like democracy and a working-class consumer society. Due to his cynicism as a result of ruling, he has difficulty comprehending the former and altruistic actions in general.
* You won't find his temple on the ground like most. You'll have to look to the skies just above the House of Personality instead, because Castle Wulfenbach is a fleet of airships.
* Don't make him come over to the battlefield. If you do, you'll regret it. Unfortunately, given all the other powerful deities in the Pantheon, this threat is mostly hollow here, at least to the Greater Gods and stronger.
* Klaus's Spark manifests in his analytical prowess, like dismantling and improve the designs of other Sparks, "finding the right monster for the right job" (i.e. making good use out of [[HumansAreBastards horrific monsters]]), and figuring out secrets his people try to hide from him in an attempt to undermine him or break his rules.
* Has an ambiguous amount of respect for Steven Armstrong. Reasons for this are unknown.
* His respect for [[Pantheon/AntiHeroes Kiritsugu]], Raiden, and [[Pantheon/CharacterRoles Martin Walker]] is more certain, citing their mutual hatred of war as his reason. He agrees entirely.
** For Walker in particular, he also expresses pity for [[spoiler:the versions that didn't make it out of Dubai]].
* Used to respect Charles zi Britannia, but then he discovered [[spoiler:[[AssimilationPlot what he was really going for]]]]. The fact that Charles promotes war [[SocialDarwinist to create social progress]] also goes against what Klaus had to do (rule ruthlessly to ''stop'' and discourage war).
** As for [[Pantheon/ActsOfWar Lelouch's]] [[spoiler:final GenghisGambit]], he thinks the kid's too reckless and overly reliant on how people will behave in a future [[spoiler:without Lelouch]].
* Regarding Homura's actions to protect Madoka [[spoiler:by depowering her]], he believes the Puella Magi is being unreasonably selfish, even though it protected her from Kyubey's machinations (and he hates them just as much as anybody else). However, upon discovering that there may have been [[PoorCommunicationKills severe communication issues]] on top of Kyubey's manipulations behind her decision, he's at a loss on what he should think of her.
* Valvatorez hates warmongers, and sympathizes with Klaus on what he had to do to stop the war on his world.
* Because of the threat of "the Other", Klaus has been trying time and again to get the GUAG to surrender Agatha over to him due to the threat she can pose in the Pantheon. That said, with all the other threats that make her comparatively small beans, Agatha's presently a medium priority.
** However, if there's a way to remove "the Other" from Agatha without destroying her, he's willing to back any such plan. That said, he's still taking into account her family's past, so…
* Ever since [[spoiler:his meddling with time by sealing away Mechanicsburg in a temporal stasis field with himself inside it]], [[EvenEvilhasStandards something not even the Heterodynes of old were willing to (let anyone) do]], Klaus got [[spoiler:the Dahaka]]'s attention (and not the positive kind), [[spoiler:especially in revelation of [[ClockRoaches what's coming to his world]]]]. [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20180629#.WzieUzG-nIW And it's only recently that Agatha's come to realize the ramifications of his actions]].
* Has joined the GUAL after the Pantheonic Rebellion to prevent whatever chaos Lucifer and his minions are causing.
** The arrival of [[Pantheon/AntiVillains Eliphas the Radiant]] has made him question his loyalty to YHVH due to the large number of atrocities the latter has committed against His own followers. He is considering taking [[Pantheon/{{Justice}} Eiki Shiki]]'s side in the GUAL Reformation, realizing he might have to "come over there". He has thanked Eliphas for helping him see the truth.
* While not really allies with the GUAG, [[spoiler:after an attempt was made on [[Pantheon/LightAndBrightness Sora]]'s life by Lucifer, Klaus and his men were tasked in sending the Keyblade bearer and his friends to [[VideoGame/PokemonSunAndMoon Alola]] to hide there for the time being. Thanks to him, they're back in their own world to get stronger and prepare for the clash with [[Pantheon/{{Villains}} Xehanort]].]]
* ''"I was away for a '''few years''' and I came back to a world in '''ruins.''' Death, destruction, chaos, the endless fighting--it was like the [[WhiteSheep Heterodyne Boys]] had never '''existed.''' Things were worse than ever. So I stopped it.

* Opposed By: '''[[spoiler: [[Pantheon/{{Birds}} Lugia]]]]''', [[Pantheon/ElementalPairings The Legendary Birds]]
* Raven Reyes, along with the rest of the crew aboard the Eligus IV, was brought to the Pantheon during the [[spoiler: [[Fanfic/RainbowRivalries Team Rainbow Rocket Crisis]]]], where she was awoken from her cryosleep by Ghetsis Harmonia, who forced her to not only reconfigure the DNA splicers to work on the Legendary Birds, but also [[spoiler: decipher the files needed to convert [[OlympusMons Lugia]] into its [[TheCorruption Shadowed form]]]]. She didn't have much choice in the matter; either she did what the Team Plasma Sage said or else the others on board would die. Luckily, when the Plasma's guard was down, Raven took the opportunity to briefly escape and send a DistressCall to the Pantheon. This allowed for several surviving deities to come up, defeat the Team Plasma grunts, capture Ghetsis, and secure Raven and the other passengers aboard the Eligus IV. She would later lend a hand in helping the resistance reach an [[AlternateDimension Ultra Universe]] and aid in [[spoiler: the defeat of Giovanni and Team Rainbow Rocket as a whole.]] For aiding in the victory against the criminal syndicate, Raven was given a temple and position as a Goddess in the Pantheon.
** When she was being shown around her Temple, which was a near perfect replica of her workshop back in Arkadia, Raven was given the biggest shock of her life. Standing by the desk side was a middle aged man, with brown eyes and frizzy black and grey hair adorning a neutral yet formal face. At first, Raven assumed that it was another hallucination, a leftover from the destroyed A.L.I.E. chip. That all changed when he came over and pulled her into a hug, speaking in a soft voice.
--> '''Sinclair''': "Hey, Spacewalker. What took you so long?"
** That was when Raven realized her mentor and ParentalSubstitute Jacapo Sinclair had been selected as her Herald, and after so many years apart, was reduced to tears and returned the hug in turn.
* Raven's new home gave her plenty of interesting neighbours to hang out with, with Luke Skywalker and Killua Zoldyck becoming her first allies in the Sub-House. Killua has questioned why Raven, as well as the rest of the 100, would have to kill so many people, to which Luke correctly noted that it was to save many other lives in the process. While Raven was saddened by the thought of what she and the others had to do, The last Jedi Knight reassured her that it was for the greater good. The Vulcan Spock, who was also in attendance, agreed with Luke's statement. After all, the needs of the many outweighed the needs of the few.
* Raven has found herself making friends with some of the Pantheon's mechanics and technical geniuses, many of them praising her own work as mechanic for the 100. Tony Stark and Reed Richards have had their gear fixed up by her and Bentley the Turtle and Otacon have approached Raven with an offer to join the White Hat Hackers. She has yet to confirm the offer but she has been considering it. But more often than not, Raven is seen working with both Sinclair and Alpha 5, with the little robot giving her special access to the Zords to work on and study their inner workings. It was like a dream come true for her and has been making modifications to them to help with against the Demonic Legion and SHOCKER's ever-growing arsenal of monsters.
* During her rescue, Raven was more than shocked to see the [[spoiler: former]] Commander of the 12 Clans, Lexa, alive and well. In fact, it was a total surprise due to not only Lexa being killed in their home world, but also [[spoiler: the Flame being passed on to Clarke's adoptive daughter Madi, making her the new Commander.]] Now while Raven has plenty of reasons to hate Lexa - with the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAL2NMjGfL8 execution of her first boyfriend Finn]] being high on that list - she only has to deal with her from time to time and even then she's on MUCH better terms with Clarke Griffin, even if they [[TeethClenchedTeamwork get on each other's nerves.]]
* The death of Finn, coupled with several other tragedies in her life, is the reason Raven stays away from the House of Pantheon/{{Love}}, as she doesn't want to be reminded of what she had lost. However, every now and again she'll meet up with Spike Spiegel and discuss their past relationships together, usually over drinks at the Stray Dog Bar. Spike is always welcomed company, and when they're together, the pair go on talking their many adventures, sharing a couple of laughs along the way. It was through Spike that Raven became friends with Radical Ed, whose technological expertise surprised even the Spacewalker in spite of her age. The pair have also been seen working with Ed's neighbour Winry Rockbell, often making comparisons between their work and helping one another improve upon their skills.
* Considering what Team Rainbow Rocket did to the Pantheon, her friends and to herself, Raven opposes the evil members of the organization for varying reasons; Giovanni for wanting to take over the world and the Multiverse, Lysandre for destroying his homeworld using the Ultimate Weapon, and Ghetsis... [[HateSink For simply existing and giving her hell.]] That said, she's cool with the leaders who have reformed such as Maxie, Archie and N. Cyrus is still on the fence, [[spoiler: as he did aid in corrupting Dialga and Palkia as part of the plan,]] but he's been true to his word about reforming himself.
* Having been [[spoiler: [[BrainwashedAndCrazy possessed by the A.I. program A.L.I.E]]]] and seeing what it has been capable of when multiple individuals are under [[spoiler: her control]], Raven is in extreme opposition to all forms of artificial intelligence in the Pantheon, even if they're good natured. She's wary around Lan Hikari and Mega Man.EXE, TRON and Kevin Flynn, with TRON especially seeing as he was corrupted before as Rinzler. But CLU and the Master Computer Program are even more dangerous, and when push comes to shove she will work with TRON to stop them, even if she doesn't like it.
** Though Clarke was [[spoiler: able to destroy A.L.I.E., [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_ECmTkoAPQ a small remnant remained.]]]] It gave Raven an increase to her already incredible intelligence but it threatened to kill her unless permanently removed, which she did... by drowning herself and remaining braindead for fifteen minutes. The House of Pantheon/HealthAndDiseases was fascinated by this, and wanted to bring Raven in to examine her brain more closely but to that, she gave a flip of the bird and went straight back to work.
* Having been through more than her [[DeathByAThousandCuts fair]] [[BrokenBird share]] [[ButtMonkey of]] [[{{Understatement}} torture]], Raven steers clear of the House of Pantheon/{{Slaughter}}, more specifically the Sub-House of Pantheon/TortureAndMutilation. That didn't stop her from doing research on the deities residing there and, as a result, it's made her completely stand against the likes of Ramsay Bolton, who is well known for his sheer brutality, and the Allied Mastercomputer, whose cruelty and sadism reminded Raven way too much of how A.L.I.E. not only [[TheCorruption possessed her]] but also for playing horrible mental games in a manner to gain control. Despite this, she gets along with Lewa, as the Toa of Air once was possessed in the past by the Bohrok swarm.
** It's because of her time being possessed that Raven opposed the two neighbouring Sub-Houses; Pantheon/MindControl and Pantheon/MindGames, much to the frustration of the good-aligned deities there. She still doesn't want to take her chances with them.
* Raven does not like to be [[DontYouDarePityMe helped when it comes to her crippled leg]]. she would rather take care of things herself. Still, she did get some sympathy from Tyrion Lannister, who is rather fond of bastards, cripples and broken things.
* Much like Lexa, Raven is absolutely terrified of Godzilla and the immense power he possesses. Avatar Korra has tried to reassure her that the King of Monsters won't unleash Primafiya upon the Pantheon, but the Spacewalker's worries haven't been eased whatsoever.
* Even though Raven was the only one granted with godhood, she has been looking for a way to ascend her friends so they can share the position with her. Progress has been slow, and with so many people to choose from she has to be careful.
* Not to be confused with the other "Ravens" in the Pantheon. This one is neither a [[Pantheon/BodyParts a cyborg]], [[Pantheon/{{Shapeshifters}} a mutant shapeshifter]], or [[Pantheon/{{Emotion}} the daughter of a powerful demon bent on world domination.]] There's been rumours about a team forming with all the Raven's involved but only time will tell.

'''[[Film/DeadPoetsSociety John Keating]], God of [[CarpeDiem Seizing the Day]]'''

* Sympathetic towards: [[Pantheon/{{Mentalities}} Simon Henriksson]], [[Pantheon/FearsomeArchetypes Doki Doki Literature Club]]
* Odd Relations: [[Pantheon/NarrativeStructure Greendale Study Group (especially regarding Jeff Winger)]]
* At Welton Academy, there are high expectations placed on the students to follow a path to Ivy League or some other prestigious school once they graduate. John Keating, a former student at Welton, has taken a job as English teacher there and has a much more free-spirited approach to giving lessons to his students, emphasized by him encouraging them to make their lives extraordinary. It’s not without some problems, including the school’s headmaster being in opposition to Keating’s approach and one of Keating’s students committing suicide as a result of his strict father (which Keating was blamed for) and an investigation that would result in Keating losing his teaching job at Welton. Nonetheless, the students that Keating taught and temporarily revived Dead Poets Society (a club whom Keating was a member of) gave him a fond farewell, knowing that what he taught them will influence their view of life well after he’s gone.
* Some time after his removal from Welton, Keating received a letter from an unknown sender praising him for his unconventional learning approach that allowed students to liven up and that he was invited to a place identified as “Pantheon”. It took some time to process what was going on, but Keating decided to go to that place, whatever it was and wherever it may be. The driving took a while and even Keating wasn’t sure if someone was pulling a joke on him after a while. Eventually, he arrived at the gates of what appeared to be a large district of multiple schools and was told that he was chosen to be a part of the “Pantheon” due to how he influenced his previous students for the better in spite of the obstacles that came their way. In a few ways, this was a second chance for Keating to impart his wisdom onto potential students, with that coming with similar problems and then some.
* Eikichi Onizuka was quick to welcome Keating to the various schools of the Pantheon and even offered him to observe one of Onizuka’s lessons for a day. Keating noticed that Onizuka was much like himself in terms of helping students better themselves via unconventional methods, though it was clear that Keating wouldn’t resort to violence to solve anything. In any case, Onizuka saw plenty of good things in Keating and is hopeful that the lessons that Keating will teach in the schools of the Pantheon will impact his students for the better.
* Another teacher who brought their students together who Keating got along with was Chisa Yukizone. Like Keating, Chisa was a former student at the school she attended before becoming a teacher there, though she was trying to find corruption within Hope’s Peak Academy as opposed to Keating, who was simply accepted a job at Welton. Keating was disturbed by what happened to Chisa when she was corrupted into becoming an Ultimate Despair and performed actions much darker than he could have imagined, but he knew that Chisa harbored immense regret over what she did that time. She was encouraging towards Keating, showed fondness towards the poetry lessons he taught and told him that what mattered most was enriching students’ lives by bringing them together no matter how different they are.
* Byleth was another teacher who Keating befriended, even if the latter had a much more complicated adventure than he did. Byleth fought in various wars prior to being a teacher and was emotionally stunted as a result. It was through their interactions with their various students that helped Byleth grow as a person and in turn, Byleth did what they could to help their students even in the face of differing tragedies that would later occur. It was quite a bit for Keating to take in (especially regarding the differences in Byleth’s story depending on the students they taught), but what mattered was how Byleth became more open as a person due to the bonds that they and their students developed with each other.
* Keating was a member of Dead Poets Society prior to becoming a teacher and he continues to use poetry as a means to inspire his students to seize the day and be their best. There were a handful of deities within the Pantheon who are fond of poetry that Keating has imparted his lessons on, but it was the Doki Doki Literature Club that had Keating’s attention. While at a glance they appeared to be a club that has written poetry, they have had plenty of severe problems and Monika has been working to try and be a better person ever since she caused grief among the other members and herself. Keating has sometimes met up with the club to give them encouragement and help them overcome their personal problems.
* While Keating has come into conflict with strict school personnel in the past, mainly regarding Headmaster Nolan, it’s the openly cruel teachers that Keating is unable to tolerate, including the likes of Agatha Trunchbull and Baldi. It’s one thing to harshly put students in line, but it’s another thing to instill fear in them and punish them for any slight transgressions, which in Keating’s view, means that students won’t be able to learn important lessons and could end up being too scared to do anything about it. Those cruel teachers, Agatha especially, would retort that Keating’s methods caused trouble for others involved and not only played a role in him getting fired back then, but that such an incident could happen again.
* Although much younger than the students that Keating formerly taught, Matilda Wormwood was a student who took a liking to him. Keating was impressed that Matilda was able to stand up against the abuse she was dealt with and led a better life because of it, even if her psychic powers were something that was strange to him. Matilda also expressed sympathy towards Keating given how despite his efforts to be a good teacher to his students, tragedy prevented him from keeping that job.
* One of the various people in Greendale Community College that the various members of the Study Group met was Eustice Whitman, a teacher that was very similar to Keating in terms of character who had plenty of words to say to Jeff Winger after the latter assumed his class could succeed from simply coasting by. Jeff taking Eustice’s advice of seizing the day resulted in him doing a lot of ridiculous things, though Jeff has more or less changed since that incident and was more bemused than anything to hear about John Keating in the Pantheon. Hearing about the kinds of advice Keating gives to his students, Jeff couldn’t help but be reminded of Eustice. From what Keating has heard of Jeff and the rest of the Greendale Study Group, he considers them to be a diverse and close, if very eccentric, group of people.
* The suicide of Neil Perry, a student of Keating’s, was something that impacted the teacher significantly (partially since Keating did try to help Neil with the latter’s passion for acting), especially since he got wrongfully blamed for it and later fired from his job because of it. The Pantheon had a fair number of deities who had to contend with their own suicidal thoughts, with the outcome of whether or not they were able to overcome it varying greatly. Simon Henriksson was among those who had to deal with depression and although whether or not he committed suicide because of the fears he was dealing with is another discussion entirely, it didn’t change the fact that Simon had mental issues, something that he’s trying to work on fixing in the Pantheon. Keating is sympathetic towards Simon’s plight, though Simon isn’t sure if it’s worth being with Keating despite his positive qualities and the likely trauma that would result in the teacher getting literally caught up in Simon’s dilemma.

* Conflicting Opinion: The House of Pantheon/{{Heroism}}
* This is a tragic tale of [[ABoyAndHisX a boy and his dog]] that ended up becoming one of the saddest endings in the Multiverse. What was merely a stray meeting an adolescent became one of the greatest friendships between a human and his CanineCompanion. Sadly, a bout with rabies forced Travis to make the difficult decision of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SnPmBCIParY shooting his companion]] to save his family. Few in the Pantheon do not know of the tale, yet there has been much debate over how to handle the ascension. Two camps emerged: one who wanted Old Yeller to stay dead and the other group wanted both owner and pet to be brought up. It was the House of Pantheon/{{Despondency}} that decided to side with the later, citing various other characters who have previously died yet have ascended. Thus, the boy and his dog was reunited in the Pantheon. Needless to say, much tears were shed from Travis.
** Travis wasn't the only one who had to perform such a [[ShootTheDog tough decision]]. George Milton was there to comfort the boy shortly after the ascension. He also helped the boy on how to cope with the return of the very thing he had to kill. Meanwhile, Lennie loves to hang out with Old Yeller. After the meet, George suggests to continue any adventures they may have done together. It turns out the Pantheon many places to explore. The two can often be seen having the time of their lives in the Houses of Nature and Beasts.
** Besides the obvious tragic fate of Old Yeller, Travis also lost his father early in life and probably would have lost his brother if not for Old Yeller. Long story short, his entire life has been a TraumaCongaLine. As such, he's a sympathetic figure in the Hall of Sadness. Yet the Avatar Korra believes that that life of his was what helped him [[MiseryBuildsCharacter become a man]]. Still, she made herself available for him in rough times.
* His story was met with great pain from various dog-owning deities in the Pantheon. None of them hope to be put in such a situation and were all supportive of Travis upon his ascension:
** Dorothy attributed much of her success in Oz to her dog Toto. Both kids were at similar age during their adventures and sometimes continue to meet up with their respective dogs.
** Ken is even younger than Travis, yet he seemed to take the ascension more maturely than most. His own dog Koromaru has helped him cope with the death of his own mother at an early age. Travis wants Ken to check his own mind in case it is in need of a checkup.
** Kiba offered to teach Travis in the ways of the Inuzuka clan. The farm boy simply declined, preferring to rely on his weapon for protection.
** There is one more deity to discuss. Though he has yet to make his presence known to the boy, he suspects that the man has been keeping watch. Whenever it seems like he has run into danger from thieves, they seem to back off or get hit with a stray bullet. Travis believes that John Wick has been observing him from a distance. While John Wick has his misgivings with the shooting, he understood that the kid had no other choice on the matter. Many believe that John Wick has made it known to the criminal world that the boy is off limits, lest they want to deal with ''him'' as well. That threat alone would be enough for most people in the House of Crime not to rob him.
* It's no surprise that the two still hold grudges against bears and wolves. The former can be somewhat forgiven since his brother was messing with a bear cub. That hasn't stopped Bashmaster to send bears after the two on occasion. Their disdain of wolves is far greater since it led to Old Yeller's death. Zinogre has yet to notice them, but it seems a confrontation between the two is inevitable.
* Travis was visited by the billionaire Bruce Wayne, who handed him a cash donation. He later conversed with the boy, talking about how he lost both of his parents to a robber. He told Travis to send his mother Bruce's regards before leaving. He was grateful for the money, but figured he was used to this since he housed orphans such as Richard Grayson and Jason Todd.
* Krypto wanted to give the two a present for making it into the Pantheon: a flight through the area in a wagon. It was harrowing at first, but the screams quickly turned into laughs as they went faster than they have ever gone before.
** Despite sympathy for the boy among the superhero community, his placement has been highly contended when it comes to killing human lives. One of the biggest examples was when Wonder Woman snapped the neck of Maxwell Lord to break Superman out of his mind-controlled rampage. It was a hotly debated subject that nearly tore the DC Pantheon in two. Travis' ascension brought up old wounds. Superman and Wonder Woman both came to his temple to discuss the subject. While the two still disagree on the decision, they decided not to let that force them to come to blows.
* The first Jojo made sure to honor one of the few animals on his list of those who went through [[TheHeroDies heroic deaths]]. He handed a medal to Old Yeller for saving Travis from various animals in its mortal life.
* While hunting in the House of Beasts, the two were confronted by a large cat with a red mane. Travis pointed his gun at the creature, but Old Yeller stepped forward instead. After a brief stare, the dog allowed the lion to walk up to Travis. To the boy's surprise, the lion nudged against him in support instead. Turns out the lion was Simba, who understood what it was like to lose a father.
* Was visited by Ash Ketchum who had one question in mind; how long did it take for the two of them to get along? He asked this because his relation with his Pikachu was extremely fraught at first. Turns out Travis had a similar experience. The dog had a habit of stealing meat from their house. He even thought Old Yeller was a pest until the dog saved his little brother. Ash was relieved that even those two had issues getting along at first.
* As a federal agent, Jack Bauer has come across such circumstances multiple times over his career. He was surprised that such a title would be handed to such a young man, but he was impressed with how Travis handled the situation and the aftermath. As such, Jack sees Travis as worthy of the title.
* Unlike other protagonists in the Pantheon, Malcolm has no qualms about blasting foes for the safety of his crew. Often times, it happens because Malcolm has simply run out of patients and thought offing the problem would be an easier solution. Malcolm has misgivings with handing the title to a boy who had suffered enough as it is but is glad Travis at least gets to see his dog again.
* Stitch once pretended to be a pet for Lilo as a cover for escaping his captures yet the two managed to be TrueCompanions. The two paid the boy a visit and had fun afterwards. Stitch did scare Old Yeller at first, but the dog recognized that Stitch meant no harm in the end.
* Courage has done all he could to protect his owners from all manners of evil. While many would say that his trials were more difficult that Old Yeller's, he commends the Labrador Retriever for performing what was essentially a HeroicSacrifice. That and Old Yeller is far braver than he ever could be.
* The same can be said for Scooby-Doo. After Travis and Old Yeller stumbled upon a haunted forest, they bumped into Mystery Incorporated. After some scares from some ghosts, the gang managed to capture them. In typical fashion it turned out to be humans Mr. Burns and Smithers. The two were trying to keep people out of public land so they could mine some gold without anyone noticing it.
* Garfield is one of the few deities in the Pantheon who finished the story without a single tear shed. In fact, he claimed that getting rid of that 'mangy dog' made it a happy ending. Many in the Pantheon was shocked by the claim, though it isn't that surprising given his disdain towards dogs. Needless to say, Old Yeller's displeasure of Garfield is mutual.

* The House of Love turned to the streets of 19th century France to the story of Christian, who told the story of a {{Dramedy}} [[WholeEpisodeFlashback through the means of a flashback]]. It told of the time when he entered Paris as a [[NaiveNewcomer naive poet]] striving to make it big. It was there that he was drawn to the Moulin Rouge, a nightclub/brothel that was the hottest sell in the city. There, he met the star attraction, a HighClassCallGirl named Satine. He was instantly smitten. What followed was a tale of wonderful and tragic woe, [[spoiler: ultimately ending in her death due to tuberculosis]]. The house took interest in the story, particularly when [[BreakHisHeartToSaveHim she rejected his proposition so that her jealous suitor Duke wouldn't go after him]]. With that story in mind, the deities there decided to bring not only Christian but also Satine. Finally together, the couple settled down to have their happy ending.
* The couple draw a big crowd from the House of Music as well. The movie is believed to have helped revive the {{Musical}} film genre. It didn't matter that many of their songs were a mix-mash of cover songs fro the modern era, it was the way it was depicted that made the songs enjoyable.
* The Greek Goddess of Love took a liking to the couple, especially how Christian was able to wrest her from the Duke, [[spoiler: even if it didn't work out well for them in the end]]. The couple has been sprinkled with gifts of wine and flowers in the hopes of rekindling their relationship.
* Now that they can be together, Satine set up a cabaret of her own filled with dancers from all over the Pantheon. Their temple quickly became the new Moulin Rogue for all to attend. Within is a memorial of Zidler, her former boss. Sure, he was the one who propositioned her to the Duke, but she knew he was doing so for the best of the Moulin Rogue.
** There was one time when she invited a group of people claiming to be from the Transsexual, Transylvania. Little did they know that their leader, the infamous Dr. Frank-n-Furter had plans of his own. It didn't take long before he took over the temple for himself, transforming all the dancers to his own troupe for his entertainment. Thankfully, others received word of the takeover and drove him out. Frank was subsequently slapped with a restraining order from both the couple and the building.
* As with many couples in the Pantheon, a lot of comparisons have been made between the two and Romeo and Juliet. This is especially true as the two [[StarCrossedLovers couldn't have been more different from each other]]. [[spoiler: At least one of them survived in the end.]] Still, both are happy to have their happy ending in the Pantheon.
** In that regard, the two have more in common with Tony and Maria. [[spoiler: In Maria's case, he comforted Christian for the loss of his love in a gender reversal.]] In fact, Maria suspected she had similar misgivings against the wilder suitor at first until they found out [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold there was a soft side under that exterior]]. One can often see the two couples go on double dates with each other in classic diners. The two aren't that too far off in terms of timelines.
* Ichiro and Ryoko watched the couple's relationship flow and ebb throughout their lifetimes in the hope that they [[BreakUpMakeUpScenario complete the loop that many of their followers go through]]. [[spoiler: Which made it more tragic to them when the two made up when she was already about to die.]] Thus they were excited to see the two have arrived in the Pantheon. Both were willing to help them sort out their new leash of life as well as where to go from there.
* Much of their problems in their story stemmed from a wealthy suitor code-named the Duke of Monroth. The Duke was to invest in the cabaret to keep it flowing and he would receive Satine as his prize. Christian's arrival threatened those plans and he raged war against the man. This [[VillainousCrush infatuation with her]] was the cause of many of their problems and was openly sponsored by none other than Lezard Valeth. The couple have made great pains to make sure he doesn't decide to bring the Duke over to bring them more misery.
** Christian's ascension means that another of Jack Dawson's followers have made the big time. Jack and Cal share deistic powers between [[RichSuitorPoorSuitor rich and poor suitors to love interests]]. Of course, Cal wasn't too happy about getting one-upped and has banked rolled multiple suitors towards Satine in the hopes of breaking the two apart.
** The two brought the attention of Rose Bukater, survivor of the ill-fated Titanic... and also the love interest of Jack Dawson. [[spoiler: Christian felt that he had a similar pain to that of Rose when both of their love interests died.]] She proved to be the perfect person in handling their reunion. At least on their part, the couple do not have to worry about their rich suitor ruining things between them.
* Apparently, tragic figures compliment the French, so the couple thought when they came upon the case of Jean Valjean. Satine in particular took the fate of him and Fantine to heart. She understands the dangers of prostitution and wanted to speak her mind about Valjean abandoning her at her time of need. Yet it was is care of Cosette that won her over. In the end, the three French people threw their anger at Javert for his pointless pursuits. Their temple has become a popular hiding place for the runaway when escaping the officer.
* As with all other couples Ato-ko Shirogane has sought them out in order to break up their relationship. In this case, she has an easy line of attack: focusing on Christian's insecurities in dating a call girl along with Satine's suspicions that her lover will never accept her for who she is.
