3%%%
4
5The ones responsible for maintaining the Loops. Actual success rates tend to vary. The vast majority of Admins are actually based on real-life mythological deities, some more obscure than others.

9----
10
11[[folder:The Admins as a Group]]
12
13* BeingGodIsHard: Many of the Admins are shown to be heavily overworked trying to fix Yggdrasil, which expresses itself most clearly with Skuld, the Head Debugger.
14* DimensionLord: Not really used much because of [[GodsHandsAreTied how busy they are]], but the Admins are multi-dimensional beings on a level far above that of even the Original Seven, and essentially TheOmnipotent within the Loops due to their RealityWarper powers.
15* EvilVersusOblivion: The Event that caused the Loops to be necessary for reality to survive led to an "All hands on deck" scenario - since failing would mean they died as well, even the gods seen as evil are willing to help with the repairs.
16* GodIsGood: Some of the more reasonable Admins are this, and they are often thought of well by their Loopers.
17* JerkassGods: Some of the Admins fall under this category, on the other hand.
18* MesACrowd: According to a snippet from Madoka's perspective, the Admins can create Avatars inside a Loop while their main self still exists in the Hub, and be aware of what both are doing.
19* {{Retconjuration}}: While they rarely do it, ''every single one of them can do this''.
20* SideBet: Admins love betting on various going ons in their loops. Sleipnir is noted to win often.
21[[/folder]]
22
23[[folder:Admins - Norse Pantheon]]
24
25!!Tyr
26The current Head Admin (official job title: Almighty) of Yggdrasil. Is missing his right hand due to an old incident involving him defending Fenrir from persecution from the other Aesir... and Fenrir misinterpreting the situation.
27----
28* TheGhost: Rarely seen, only slightly less rarely invoked. The guy is presumably very busy.
29* HookHand: Averted. Tyr has replaced his missing hand with nothing. He doesn't need to.
30
31!!Odin
32->Loops: ''Final Fantasy'' (all of them), ''Digimon'' (all of them).
33
34Head of the Norse Pantheon.
35----
36* SinkOrSwimMentor: Felt that if he actively intervened on his Anchors' behalf during the Crash it could only be taken the wrong way.
37
38!!Thor
39->Loops: ''Marvel Comics''.
40----
41* IgnoredExpert: Gave the Watchers, who are Loop aware, a heads-up on what was going on, telling them not to worry. They decided to break their non-interference vow and make sure everything followed the original course of history, even trying to threaten Thor into giving them the information they wanted. He just distracted them and let the Loop run out.
42* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Is responsible for the VideoGame/GoatSimulator loops, along with Hercules.
43* OneSteveLimit: Averted, but he's obviously not that same as ''[[ComicBook/TheMightyThor that Thor]]''. He tends to refer to himself as The Real Thor to avoid this.
44
45!!Loki
46->Loops: ''How To Train Your Dragon'', ''Decendents''.
47
48Trickster god, parent of at least four other Admins.
49----
50* BigScrewedUpFamily: The father of a giant wolf (Fenrir), a massive serpent (Jörmungandr), a [[TwoFaced half-zombie]] (Hel), and the mother of an eight-legged equine god (Sleipnir). And those are just the confirmed children.
51* MisterSeahorse: Again, Sleipnir's mother. He's understandably annoyed when Sleipnir brings this up.
52* {{Troll}}: Wouldn't be much of a trickster if he wasn't.
53* VoluntaryShapeshifting[=/=]GenderBender: In case anyone was actually wondering how a normally male god became the mother of an equine deity. Sleipnir likes teasing Loki about this.
54
55!!Sleipnir
56->Loops: ''Franchise/MyLittlePony'', ''Literature/HeraldsOfValdemar''.
57
58Son of Loki; an eight-legged horse. More friendly with his Loopers than most of the admins. In a committed relationship (if not outright married) with Epona, Celtic goddess of steeds and fertility.
59----
60* DrowningMySorrows: After saving Twilight from an utterly horrible Loop.
61* TheGadfly: Enjoys teasing Loki about being his mom.
62* LargeAndInCharge: By pony standards, the guy's freaking huge. And as Big Mac can attest, he makes most beings that look at him feel cosmically small.
63* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: One of the more calm and levelheaded of the admins. Is also willing to wade into a bad Loop if absolutely necessary to save Twilight from it.
64* SoProudOfYou: Is very proud of and grateful to the Equestrian Loopers for declaring their Loop a sanctuary and saving Leah Clearwater's sanity, and thus the stability of the Twilight loops.
65
66!!Fenrir
67->Loops: ''The Twilight Saga'', ''Warhammer 40,000''.
68
69Son of Loki; an incredibly large wolf. Unlike most Admins, tends to get involved with his Loopers on a regular basis.
70----
71* AdaptationalHeroism: In the original mythology, Fenrir is destined to eat Odin at Ragnarok, and is just generally bad news. This guy is actually pretty nice (when the job isn't getting to him).
72* ButtMonkey: Has a chronic case of bad luck.
73%%* InterspeciesRomance: With Liberty.
74
75%%!!Hel
76%%->Loops: ''Plants Versus Zombies''.
77
78%%Daughter of Loki; half alive and half dead.
79
80!!Jormungandr
81
82Son of Loki; a giant sea serpent. Devised the coding that allows certain kinds of time travel.
83----
84* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Once complained he was bored, which Loki took as an excuse to refer his kid to his bosses.
85* CharacterTics: Eats his tail when stressed or nervous. He once threatened to eat himself whole, though whether he could actually manage this is unclear.
86* GotVolunteered: How he views Loki handing his résumé over to the higher-ups, since it meant he'd be made to work on everything time-travel related forever.
87
88!!The Norns (Urd, Belldandy, and Skuld)
89----
90* CuteBruiser: Skuld still has her appearance from the ''Manga/AhMyGoddess'' world. She is also TheOmnipotent RealityWarper within the Loops, has a large hammer she is willing to use, and a enormous temper if she's pissed.
91* HairTriggerTemper: Skuld gets increasingly angry as the Loops go on. Probably because her workload keeps increasing.
92* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Skuld can be very rude and angry due to stress from her job, but Skuld has a good heart underneath, even if it's rarely seen. See the following entry for details.
93* ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: After the ending of ''WesternAnimation/SamuraiJack'', Jack's Admin Shuo-Hsing personally appears to Jack, brings all of his friends from the future to his wedding, and revives Ashi despite her being {{Retgone}}d. Afterwards, Skuld has the following conversation with him that establishes her JerkWithAHeartOfGold status.
94-->'''Skuld:''' You know that you are considerable trouble, right?\
95'''Shuo-Hsing:''' I know.\
96'''Skuld:''' You know that we have rules ''against'' what you did, right?\
97'''Shuo-Hsing:''' I know.\
98'''Skuld:''' We cannot do this for every Looper because that would strain Yggdrasil too much.\
99'''Shuo-Hsing:''' I know.\
100'''Skuld:''' Good. Here is the list of fused loops I have prearranged for that girl of yours to go visit after you Activate her.\
101'''Shuo-Hsing:''' I... ''what''?\
102'''Skuld:''' We are repairing Yggdrasil because it needs to be done ''and'' - it is the right thing to do. He has been Looping for a [[TimeAbyss ''very'' long time]] and I will be damned if ''[[BittersweetEnding this]]'' is all that he gets at the end. Shou-Hsing, give this story a happy ending."
103[[/folder]]
104
105[[folder:Admins - Greek and Roman Pantheon]]
106!!Zeus
107Sleazy politician, usually off making another conquest rather than doing his actual job. Nominally the head of the Olympians.
108----
109* JerkassGods: Ho, boy is he ever. When Hephaestus tries to get in contact with him for something seriously important, he only gets Zeus' answering machine. When he actually gets around to answering his son's calls, he still acts like a colossal dick, while Hephaestus and Hermes are fighting to keep the Megaverse from being {{Retgone}}.
110** Also claims to be the Admin for the Prototype Loops, which is actually Apollo's job.
111** And there's his hiding a massive stash of porn in Sleipnir's terminal, causing the Molestia Loop.
112* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: A very, ''very'' small one, but it is there. If you squint. He has a soft spot for Hecate, and treats his Adminship of Disney/Hercules with actual dignity, keeping his Rated-R antics away from it.
113** Also, in a (debatably-canon) snippet, he says that one of the options for repairing Yggdrasil at the end involves wiping the memories of all the Loopers to complete the repairs, and makes it very clear that he in no way supports that option.
114** He made it a point to warn Ganesha, Tama and Thoth about a Punishment Loop that the Keres had been planning on testing out for a while. It was a well founded warning [[WebAnimation/HappyTreeFriends given what they were using.]]
115* OhCrap: His reaction to being anywhere near Nyx (the god, not the pony), with whom he apparently has a history.
116%%* ReallyGetsAround: Which conveniently keeps him away from his desk for long periods of time.
117* SleazyPolitician
118--> '''Zeus's Answering Machine:''' Remember to vote Zeus in any and all upcoming elections!
119
120!!Hera
121Goddess of marriage, women and birth. Is not exactly the nicest being around.
122----
123* AbusiveParents: It's strongly implied that both she and Zeus were this to Hephaestus.
124* TheGhost: Hasn't been seen, to the extent that it's not known which Loops she presides over.
125
126!!Hestia
127God of the hearth and home, cursed with being the responsible sibling, but still impeccably polite.
128----
129* CoolBigSis: For much of the Olympians, bar Zeus and Aphrodite.
130* KindlyHousekeeper: Comes from being a Goddess of the Home.
131* PlayingWithFire: Goddess of the Hearth, remember? Usually manifests in a proper hearth-like manner of warmth and caring, but sometimes people need a painful reminder that it's still ''fire''...
132* SilkHidingSteel: Spends most of her time keeping an eye on the other Olympians, but will put her foot down if they go too far out of line. Or if they use strong language, to Pandora's displeasure.
133
134!!Athena
135->Loops: ''Mass Effect'' (formerly assigned to Ares), ''Command and Conquer''.
136
137Greek Goddess of Wisdom and warfare. After Ares approved Sovereign for Looping, she was assigned jurisdiction of the Mass Effect Loops.
138----
139* LadyOfWar: Well, she ''is'' a war god, after all.
140* OnlySaneWoman: Among the majority of the Olympians. Regrettably, this isn't saying much.
141* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Well, she can't be much worse than Ares.
142* TheStoic: It takes a lot to get under her skin
143
144!!Hephaestus
145->Loops: ''Mega Man'', ''Ratchet and Clank'', ''Terminator''.
146
147Son of Zeus and Hera; craftsman of the Greek pantheon. An overworked Admin often hailed as the go-to tech guy besides Ganesha. He has his work cut out for him.
148----
149* BodyguardBabes: Has several Valkyries acting as his parole officers, but they're willing to protect him from his ex-wife, who isn't very popular among any of the Aesir.
150* {{Determinator}}: Throws his everything into keeping the Mega Man loop intact, even as the situation goes completely FUBAR.
151* GadgeteerGenius: Hardly a surprise then that his Loops usually have something to do with technology in some shape or form.
152* NoRespectGuy: Tends to get the short end of the stick from most of his fellow gods (Zeus and Hera being the worst), and foisted with the jobs no-one else wants.
153* RageBreakingPoint: His estranged wife and either of his parents for the most part. Plus the fact that he's a volcano god suggests that he's got one [[UnstoppableRage epic temper]] when he loses it.
154* ScrewTheRulesIMakeThem: Had a helping hand in getting the Terminator universe to Loop, by giving Twilight Sparkle some leeway.
155
156!!Aphrodite
157->Loops: ''Eiken'' (punishment loop).
158
159Greek goddess of love and Hephaestus' estranged wife. It's implied that the only reason they're still married is that she spitefully refuses to divorce him. Which explains an awful lot.
160----
161%%* DramaQueen
162* TheFriendNobodyLikes: It's yet to be seen if there is actually anyone outside of Ares who even tolerates her.
163* JerkassGods: Tends to spend much of her time being petty and lazy, and misuses office equipment to send spam to other Admins. The Valkyrie openly want to kill her because of this, and a dozen other reasons. Her spamming antics also endangered the existence of the Mega Man and Sonic Loops.
164* LaserGuidedKarma: Fand once put a spell on her, changing her skin color to whatever she last ate. Said thing was Madoka's cherry on her sundae.
165* ProfessionalSlacker: It's [[AllThereInTheManual been said]] that the reason she's in charge of Eiken is because the safe-mode universe is so stable that it pretty much runs itself, and that her Admin employee profile lists an allergy to work.
166* ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: She breaks code to set Gomez and Morticia up as Co-Anchors for the ''Addams Family'' loops, because having them loop separate would be too cruel.
167* WomanScorned: Even if she doesn't like Hephaestus, she still took his rejection badly.
168
169!!Ares
170->Loops: ''Mass Effect'' (formerly), [[spoiler: ''I Wanna Be the Guy'']]. Currently attempting to start up [[spoiler: ''Dwarf Fortress'']].
171
172Greek God of violent warfare. The guy (formerly) in charge of the Mass Effect Loops. He and Aphrodite have a thing.
173----
174* BrokenTears: He once got the Loop of ''VideoGame/IWannaBeTheGuy'' to run its full course. However, The Kid died from an "end credit" event in the final moments and the Loop failed to initialize. [[spoiler: The try was somewhere in the trillions.]]
175* {{Determinator}}: He stuck with trying to get ''VideoGame/IWannaBeTheGuy'', [[spoiler:and eventually succeeded.]]
176* ReassignedToAntarctica: After he approved Sovereign for looping (the eligibility being due to a system bug), he was reassigned to trying to get the universe of I Wanna Be The Guy looping. Which apparently requires The Kid to complete a baseline run on Impossible level ''without'' the benefit of any foreknowledge. Or extra lives. Failed activation attempts were in the billions last time anyone checked.
177** [[spoiler: And after he finally managed to get it looping, he was stuck on ''Dwarf Fortress''.]]
178* YankTheDogsChain: [[spoiler:After finally succeeding to get ''I Wanna Be The Guy'' Looping, he was moved over to ''VideoGame/DwarfFortress'' to get it Looping. He's noticeably less put off by this one.]]
179
180!!Hermes
181->Loops: ''Sonic the Hedgehog'', ''Eyeshield 21''.
182
183God of speed, messengers, travel, thieves, doctors, and many others.
184----
185* JackOfAllTrades: The patron god of pretty much anything and anyone that travels, making for a rather comprehensive skillset even if he isn't the divine master of any of them.
186%%* HospitalHottie: Has several trained nymphs around.
187* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Doesn't like risking his Loopers, or sending them to Eiken.
188* ScrewTheRulesIHaveConnections: Appropriate for a god of messengers and travel. Among other things, he arranged for Hephaestus's parole officers (assigned because of the latter's unfortunate involvement in [[ApocalypseHow The Crash]]) to be a trio of hot {{Valkyries}} who find quality armorers to be sexy.
189
190!!Artemis
191->Loops: ''Jurassic Park'', ''Nanosaur'', ''Prehistoric Park'', ''Primal Carnage'', ''Monster Hunter''.
192
193Goddess of wild animals, hunting and maidens. Compared to other admins, she is somewhat more upfront with her first loop's anchor Alan Grant, usually to complain when he gets eaten. Eventually, she broke the rules big-time by tampering with a certain tyrannosaurus rex's coding and was punished for it, losing her rights to activate Loopers (without such activations being confirmed by another Admin, at least) and being forced to share an office with the Celtic goddess Ardwinna.
194----
195* DeconReconSwitch: Describes the Jurassic and Prehistoric Park loops this way, comparing them to Evangelion and Gurren Laggan, respectively. Alan doesn't get it.
196* PetTheDog:
197** Allows Alan to have a peaceful loop for a change after he helps her get the Prehistoric Park Loop running.
198** Following the events that led to her getting an assistant, she was on the receiving end of this when Ardwinna, in an effort to help her, gets Artemis' old companion Orion assigned to their office as well.
199* PunishmentDetail: For violating the rules by tampering with Rexy/Roxy's code, she was stripped of her rights to activate Loopers and assigned an assistant (Ardwinna, Celtic goddess of animals) to activate Loopers in her place, and is stuck with both restrictions until she manages to get all seven kids (Lex and Tim Murphy, Jess Harding, Kelly Malcolm, Eric Kirby, and Zach and Gray Mitchell) from the ''Jurassic Park'' branch Looping.
200
201!!Apollo
202->Loops: ''Boktai'', ''Prototype'', ''No Straight Roads''.
203
204->"Never fear, Apollo is here!"
205
206God of Light and the Sun as well as prophecy. Artemis' twin brother, and annoyingly self-assured.
207----
208* BigBrotherInstinct: The background discussion of Apollo's character suggests that one hurts his twin sister Artemis at their own peril.
209* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Apollo may act the fool, but when something serious happens, [[LetsGetDangerous he gets serious too]].
210* TheDitz: Apollo... ain't exactly all there.
211* DumbassHasAPoint: Suggests a way to get the Mega Man Battle Network universe Looping to Hephaestus, and it works. Hephaestus is suitably embarrassed.
212* TheThingThatWouldNotLeave: Sets up camp in Hephaestus's office during his attempts to get Battle Network Looping, and doesn't leave.
213* ThirdPersonPerson: The mighty Apollo does this a lot. Much to Hephaestus's continuing frustration.
214
215!!Eris
216->Loops: ''Red Dwarf'', ''Postal''.
217
218Primordial Goddess of Discord and daughter of fellow primordial Nyx.
219----
220* ItAmusedMe: Her sole reason for activating the Postal loops, with [[OnlySaneMan The]] [[TheSociopath Postal]] [[CosmicPlaything Dude]] as the anchor.
221* MythologyGag: Fittingly, for the god of Discord, she's in charge of a Loop which seems to be hard-wired with the ConflictBall (The Red Dwarf Loop and the Postal loop).
222
223!!Morpheus
224->Loops: ''DC Comics'', all associated branches.
225
226God of Good Dreams, son of Hypnos and thus grandson of Nyx. Looks and acts a lot like [[ComicBook/TheSandman1989 another Morpheus]].
227----
228* BlackEyesOfEvil: His eyes are labelled as completely pitch black. Averted otherwise, in that's he's a good guy. Well... good''ish''.
229* FatalFlaw: Pride. He's too proud to admit he might need help getting the DC'verse Looping, and it costs him two Anchor candidates. It also gets Zeus incredibly angry with him.
230* IGaveMyWord: Said he'd get the DC universe looping, and refuses to back down, even when it's suggested setting it to Read-Only might be the better option, though this is again out of pride and stubbornness.
231* NeverRecycleYourSchemes: A non-villainous example. Morpheus isn't one for analysing what went wrong, and therefore when the first Fused Loop attempt with the DC 'verse fails, he simply discards Fused Loops as an option entirely.
232* OddFriendship: Somehow managed to become friends with Madoka after she Ascended.
233* TookALevelInKindness: Implied, given aforementioned friendship with Madoka.
234
235!!Phobetor
236God of Nightmares. One of Hypnos' sons.
237----
238* TheGhost: Mentioned, not by name, by Morpheus during DC's activation attempt.
239
240!!Themis
241->Loops: ''Sly Cooper''.
242
243Titaness of Justice. Tends to be a bit 'hands-on' with villains, much to the annoyance of Skuld.
244----
245* TheExtremistWasRight: In both known cases, the looper became well-adjusted after therapy from the other Loopers.
246* JerkassHasAPoint: She'll only make use of her Mind Rape method if she can give a valid justification for doing so.
247* MindRape: Tends to set up villain Loopers to repeatedly experience the worst parts of their lives as an initial punishment. Once they've 'served their sentence', she sets them up to Loop normally.
248** When applying this method to Penelope, Themis set her to repeatedly experience her defeat as a member of [=LeParadox=]'s gang, with no real time to prevent what happens in Baseline.
249** Applying this method to Neyla resulted the Looper experiencing her time as Clock-La, and left a lasting impression considering Neyla's reactions to Cyborgs.
250* SmallReferencePools: The one responsible for suggesting her for the Admin position originally had no idea that she even existed.
251* WellIntentionedExtremist: Her Mind Rape method is not liked by the other Admins, hence the use only if valid justification
252
253!!Pandora
254->Loops: ''Franchise/{{Transformers}}'', ''Website/SCPFoundation''.
255
256The first woman, created by the Greek pantheon to punish humanity for the actions of the Titan Prometheus. She tends to spend much of her time not actually paying attention to problems, but rather watching the antics of her Loopers.
257----
258* BreakTheCutie: When [[ComicBook/TransformersMoreThanMeetsTheEye Ultra Magnus led the non-reversed Transformers to the Universal Killswitch]], Pandora broke down completely.
259* GeniusDitz: Has the occasional attention span problem, but she's good at handling chaotic Loops.
260* HappilyAdopted: Considers Hephaestus and Athena her parents, in a roundabout sense. Hephaestus at least reciprocates.
261%%* PerkyGoth
262%%* PrecisionFStrike: During the Link Joker incident.
263
264!!Nyx
265Primordial God of Darkness and the Night, Hypnos' mother, Morpheus' grandmother, and former Admin. She doesn't get on with Zeus.
266----
267* ByTheLightsOfTheirEyes: Her eyes are always visible, regardless of the rest of her. Probably because her eyes look like (or are) stars.
268* CoolOldLady: The "old" part definitely applies, as she notes she was around long before Zeus was born, and she manages to, ah, ''convince'' him to change his mind on giving Morpheus another chance.
269* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: Someone associated with darkness and the night, who can appear and disappear without being noticed... and note that Morpheus declined to make Batman the anchor of the DC Loops for some reason...
270* TheDreaded: Applies only for Zeus. He's ''terrified'' of her. Considering she can drag him about with ease, there might be a reason for that...
271* TheFaceless / FaceFramedInShadow: Alternates between the two, as the shadows that surround her shift depending on her mood.
272* MysteriousPast: Exactly how an Admin "retires", especially with Yggdrasil's situation, is unclear. What caused Zeus to be afraid of her in the first place is unclear. It's implied she was forced to retire as well.
273* TheOlderImmortal: All the Admins are immortal, and she's apparently older than most.
274* OneSteveLimit: Obviously not that same as that other Nyx.
275* PerpetualSmiler: Near-constantly smiling. It's just not always a [[SlasherSmile nice one]].
276* StealthHiBye: Manages to get into Hephaestus's office without him even noticing, even though he's apparently in line of sight of the door.
277
278!!Janus
279->Loops: ''Disney'' in general, ''Kingdom Hearts'', ''Portal''.
280----
281* MythologyGag: Janus is the god of doorways and passages, things that come up a lot in both Kingdom Hearts and Portal.
282
283!!Nemesis
284->Loops: ''Harry Dresden''
285One of the children of Nyx. An admin from legal department, more concerned with justice than anything else. She and Ares are currently hunting down the admin who let Madoka ascend on his watch.
286----
287%%* CoolAndUnusualPunishment: She's fond of them.
288* TheDreaded: ''Nobody'' wants to earn her punishments, not after [[NoodleIncident what she did to Zeus when he tried to put the moves on her]].
289* RevengeBeforeReason: {{Subverted}}: as vengeful as she is, she's reasonable enough to inflict proportionate punishment to the sinners, and abort it if she finds out they're innocent.
290%%* WingedHumanoid
291
292!!Hecate
293->Loops: ''Nintendo'' in general.
294Goddess of magic and witchcraft. Is normally ''very'' stressed from several of her loops, mainly the ''VideoGame/FireEmblem'' loops (for how often they have multiple story lines). Also one of the few gods that likes Madoka (because she takes some stress off her job).
295----
296* INeedAFreakingDrink: After a close scare in the Mario loops during the Crisis.
297* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: As much as they stress her out, Hecate does care about her loopers. She doesn't get mad after Mario snaps on her during a close scare with Dimentio during the Crisis, as well as apologizing for giving Porky Minch ideas to mess with the loopers during the same event.
298* ThrowTheDogABone: After seeing how overworked she is, Skuld approves for her to get several other Admins to help her run her loops.
299
300%%!!Poseidon
301%%->Loops: ''Pirates of the Caribbean'', ''Peter Pan'', ''Percy Jackson''
302%%Brother of Zeus and God of the sea.
303%%----
304
305%%!!Amphitrite
306%%->Loops: ''The Little Mermaid''
307%%Posiedon's wife and female personification of the sea.
308%%----
309
310%%!!Despoina
311%%->Loops: ''Who Framed Rodger Rabbit?'', ''National Treasure''
312%%Goddess of Mystery.
313%%----
314
315%%!!Tyche
316%%-> ''Phineas & Ferb'', ''Milo Murphy's Law'', ''Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir''
317%%Goddess of luck.
318%%----
319
320!!Thalia
321->Loops: ''Channel Awesome'', ''Cinemassacre''
322The Muse of Comedy.
323
324!!Persephone
325->Loops: ''Addams Family''
326Hades' wife and the Goddess of Spring.
327[[/folder]]
328
329[[folder:Admins - Egyptian Pantheon]]
330!!Thoth
331->Loops: ''Yu-Gi-Oh!'' (all of them).
332Ancient Egyptian God of knowledge, magic, science and the judgement of the dead.
333----
334* MagiBabble: Part of his idiolect.
335* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Accidentally caused the Яeverse Incident while trying to activate the Cardfight! Vanguard Loops.
336* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: The worse the situation is, the more brief and concise he gets in his speech. Highlights include the unplanned activation of VRAINS and his one-word note to Atem, who promptly freaks out.
337* SesquipedalianLoquaciousness: Prone to these, to the confusion of most of his loopers. Only Yuto can follow him, leading to the others using him as a translator.
338* TechnoBabble: Noticing a pattern?
339
340!!Nut
341->Loops: ''Star Trek'', ''Star Wars''.
342Egyptian Goddess of the skies.
343----
344* CelestialBody: She is a sky goddess.
345* TheGhost: Hasn't appeared in any loops, and is implied to be unknown even to her loopers (Which, considering their age, is rather surprising). She finally made an appearance [[spoiler: after Sayaka Miki's brief appearance in loop]].
346* IWorkAlone: Prefers this.
347* NoJustNoReaction: Her view on the possible looping status of either Palpatine or the Sith Emperor.
348
349!!Ihy
350->Loops: ''Spyro the Dragon'' (all of them).
351The god of alcohol and music. Frequently falls off the wagon, resulting in rather odd variant loops for the loopers.
352----
353* AchievementsInIgnorance: During a drunken bender, he accidentally Activated the [[Advertising/TheManYourManCouldSmellLike Old Spice Duo]] as Travelling Loopers, paving the way towards the long winded, but eventual healing of Ad Space.
354* TheAlcoholic: Which is why variants of the Loops he oversees are so weird.
355* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Frequently shows he has a good heart despite being brash and an alcoholic, and shows that deep down, he really ''does'' care for the loops he oversees and the loopers who are in them. [[spoiler: For example, he permanently altered the Legendverse baseline so Cynder could have a better chance of escaping becoming the Terror of the Skies, despite doing such things being big no-no in the admin circle.]]
356* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Despite being an alcoholic and a bit of a jerk, he ''is'' willing to listen to his loopers complaints and try to help anyway he can.
357
358!!Bes
359->Loops: ''Bolt'', ''Big Hero 6'', ''The Incredibles'', ''Toy Story'', ''Buzz Lightyear of Star Command'', ''Kim Possible'', ''American Dragon: Jake Long'', ''Sky High''
360
361The dwarf god, worshiped as a protector of households (especially mothers, children and childbirth) and later as the defender of everything good and the enemy of all that is bad. Originally a part of the Justice Department as the equivalent of a mortal beat cop (his duties were mainly scaring away Mythos hackers or other troublemakers), he decided he wanted to work closer with mortals and signed on with Janus after the ''Mega Man: Inside Out'' event.
362----
363* {{Gonk}}: He's well-known for (and proud of) his ugliness, having been voted ugliest god ten eons straight and counting.
364* NightmareFace: He can make himself even uglier when needed, which he typically does when he needs to scare away troublemakers like the Mythos Hackers. It even scares ''Janus'', his new boss, when he demonstrates.
365
366!!Khonsu
367->Loops: ''Freelancer''.
368Egyptian God of the moon.
369----
370* AlmightyJanitor: Implied but not actually shown. Prior to being given Adminship of Freelancer, it's strongly implied his entire job for the history of the Loops has been to put out minor fires and help fix things in the behind the scenes areas of Yggdrasil.
371* TheGhost: Formerly and still intermittently. His first regular appearance was to clarify his existence as the Admin for Freelancer, which had already been looping for some time by that point. And even prior to that, he's supposedly been around for a good portion of the Loops in a support role and yet wasn't mentioned even once.
372* RememberTheNewGuy: As with a lot of Admins prior to their first appearance, and partially because of the other reasons listed here, his introduction has minor shades of this.
373[[/folder]]
374
375[[folder:Admins - Celtic Pantheon]]
376!!Fand
377->Loops: ''Winx Club''.
378
379The Celtic Queen of the Fairies. More than a little ship-crazy.
380----
381* TheDogBitesBack: Fand, after getting tired of Aphrodite's behavior, put a spell on her that changes her skin tone of whatever she last ate. This was apparently in response to her stealing [[MustHaveCaffeine the last coffee.]]
382%%* {{Flight}}: She has wings.
383* GeniusDitz: Yes, she's [[ShipperOnDeck obsessed with shipping]]. She's also competent enough to handle a loop with multiple corrupted baselines and [[CrazyPrepared predict the Mythos Hackers eons in advance]] without breaking a sweat.
384* LockedInAFreezer: [[RunningGag All the time]] as a punishment for when she goes too far with her attempts to ship her coworkers. It doesn't seem to slow her down much.
385* NiceToTheWaiter: In spite of her obsession with her shipping charts, Fand is remarkably kind for an Admin, congratulating and rewarding her charges for their achievements.
386* NotMeThisTime: Due to the trope below, she's often blamed for most relationships, even the ones that she had zero hand in or even actively made a detriment to.
387* ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: While never explicit, Fand has a tendency to do what she feels is the right thing with little regard for what anyone else will think. Bit her in the ass when she was stupid enough to come up with making an AI out of a potential looper.
388* ShipperOnDeck: Oh so very much, and another thing that bit her in the ass as her shipping lead to one of her loopers snapping.
389* {{Squick}}: A frequent in-universe response to some of her ideas for ideal relationships.
390
391%%!!Brigid
392%%->Loops: ''Valkyrie Profile''.
393%%Celtic goddess of poets and "woman of wisdom".
394%%----
395
396%%!!Nuada
397%%->Loops: ''Suikoden''.
398%%Celtic god of hunting and fishing.
399%%----
400
401!!Ardwinna
402->Loops: ''A Dinosaur Named Minerva'', ''Dinosaur King'', ''Raptor Red'', ''Monster Hunter''.
403Celtic goddess of animals, assigned to Artemis' office as her assistant as punishment for the other goddess after she broke the rules by tampering with a Looper's code. In addition to activating Loopers for Artemis' Loops, she runs a few of her own.
404----
405* PetTheDog: In an effort to help Artemis get better, she got Artemis' old companion Orion assigned to their office as well.
406[[/folder]]
407
408[[folder:Admins - Other Pantheons]]
409%%!!Toutatis
410%%->Loops: ''Asterix''.
411%%Gaulish God of Tribal Protection.\
412%%----
413
414!!Bishamonten
415->Loops: More or less all the Gundam Branches, as well as some other Mecha loops.
416Japanese god of warriors and healing.
417----
418* CrazyPrepared: Knew that activating Professor Gerbera from SD Gundam Force could be especially problematic, and so he acted by deploying Monad's Grima Patch ahead of time, allowing the Gundam to start looping without being stuck under Zeong's influence.
419* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Is okay with villains starting to loop, as he knows the Tree is in need of a certain balance.
420
421!!Quetzalcoatl
422->Loops: ''Cardfight!! Vanguard''.
423Mesoamerican deity of the sky.
424----
425* BrassBalls: Willing to stand up to an angry Skuld and tell her that she was wrong about what could happen if the Link Joker ever got out... ''right after it just happened''. '''''While he was still an Assistant to Thoth'''''.
426* KickedUpstairs: Of the "First Time We See Him" variant. Used to be part of IT, but something happened and he became Thoth's intern... until a Virus from Vanguard got loose. After activating the full loop and Aichi beating Link Joker, he became the Admin for the new Loop. So it might have happened twice.
427* ReassignedToAntarctica: What said internship was intended to be, since the Admins' interns tend to get some of the worst work.
428
429!!Zurvan
430->Loops: ''Doctor Who''.
431Creator deity of Zurvanism (a branch of Zoroastrianism) and God of infinite time and space. He figured out how to get ''Doctor Who'' Looping.
432----
433* {{Determinator}}: Set out to get Doctor Who looping, and succeeded.
434* MythologyGag: A literal version. Zurvan was a god of infinite time and space, so who else is better to look after the universe with Time Lords in it?
435* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Whatever means he took to make sure the Doctor's regenerations were fixed also means the Tenth Doctor is always nearly killed by a Dalek. To his credit, Zurvan does try to get that one fixed.
436
437!!Ganesha
438->Loops: ''Magic: The Gathering'', ''Attack on Titan'', ''Neon Genesis Evangelion'', ''Steven Universe'', ''Doki Doki Literature Club''.
439Hindu deity of writing.
440----
441* BeleagueredAssistant: Sort of one to Zeus: the Greek god just dumps his work on Ganesha.
442* ExplainExplainOhCrap: Has a few, usually when realizes exactly what he's getting into.
443* InformedAttribute: [[SubvertedTrope Ganesha is never actually shown coding, but the fact that he came up with an entirely new Anchor system and helms one of the most problematic loops in the multiverse speaks for itself.]] It's also this that makes him a good fit for admin of ''Doki Doki Literature Club'', since that Loop is InsideAComputerSystem.
444* NoIndoorVoice: He's an elephant god. He's loud.
445* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Doesn't indulge every request that his loopers through his way, but does stay in contact and throws them a bone every now and again. In the ''DDLC'' Loops, he's regularly shown doing his best to help, even setting up [[Anime/{{Shelter|2016}} Rin]] as a Traveling Looper after they find her so she won't have to be alone.
446* ReasoningWithGod: As a god of writing, he can see when people address letters to him, and respond accordingly.
447
448!!Monad
449->Loops: ''VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles1'', ''Xenogears''.
450The primal incarnation of divinity from the Gnostic faith. Programmed a patch to separate potential Loopers from any [[SealedInsideAPersonShapedCan problematic]] [[SuperpoweredEvilSide entities]] possessing them.
451----
452* BarbieDollAnatomy: Is described as such. As a result, they do not wear clothes, much to [[{{Squick}} Skuld's dismay.]]
453* NakedPeopleAreFunny: Played with: Monad apparently refuses to wear clothes, but since they [[BarbieDollAnatomy have nothing to show]], it doesn't matter.
454* PronounTrouble: Due to lacking any gendered traits, the other Admins (and by extension, the readers) refer to Monad with the singular "they."
455
456!!Marianne (Lady Liberty)
457->Loops: ''RWBY'', ''Hoodwinked'', ''American Dad''.
458French personification of victory and freedom. Currently dating Fenrir. [[spoiler:She was also once known as Libertas, the Roman personfication of liberty.]]
459----
460* CompositeCharacter: Of the French personfication Lady Liberty and the [[spoiler:Roman personfication Libertas.]]
461* DarkAndTroubledPast: Comes with being a [[spoiler:former member of the Greco-Roman Pantheon.]]
462* HistoricalInJoke: Women dressing as Marianne wear [[Literature/LittleRedRidingHood red hoods]] as part of the costume (the rest of the costume is blue and white - it's supposed to simulate the French flag).
463* InterspeciesRomance: With Fenrir, who is a giant wolf.
464* NiceGirl: Nice enough to date the biggest, baddest wolf in the Multiverse - and cares deeply for him. Though she's not above teasing him by [[Literature/LittleRedRidingHood wearing a red hood]] when they're on a date.
465* OddJobGod: She's the French personification of victory; it comes with the job description.
466* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Like most Admins, she helps keep Yggdrasil stable and running.
467
468!!Tama
469->Loops: ''Thomas the Tank Engine'', ''Half-Life''.
470A female calico cat who gained fame for being a station master and operating officer at Kishi Station on the Kishigawa Line in Kinokawa, Wakayama, Japan. When she died in the Hub, [[ClapYourHandsIfYouBelieve the power of human belief]] caused her spirit to Ascend and become an Admin from the Shinto pantheon, rather than merely passing on to the afterlife.
471----
472* AchievementsInIgnorance: Got the Half-Life branch foisted off on her and did rather well with it despite having no idea what she was doing. The horror felt when this is revealed (mostly imagining how horribly wrong it might have gone) leads to her getting officially apprenticed to Hephaestus.
473* TheApprentice: Became Hephaestus's apprentice once several gods realized that her ascension was so unexpected that no one knew what to do with her long enough to actually show her the ropes.
474* BewareTheSillyOnes: Tama has a lot of cat-like behaviors tacked onto the fact that she is a very young goddess compared to pretty much every other divinity in existence. That said, one of her powers is the ability to summon trains which she can and will use to ''run someone over'' if they piss her off.
475* MyInstinctsAreShowing: Will cheerfully indulge in her feline instincts without a shred of hesitation, shame, or regret, even fully knowing that this is what's happening. Loves to pounce on laser pointers in particular.
476
477!!Long Mu
478->Loops: ''W.I.T.C.H.''
479A Chinese woman who successfully raised five dragons and became a goddess for it.
480----
481* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: Her actual name is Wen Shi, but everyone calls her "Long Mu", meaning "[[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Mother Dragon]]".
482* TeamMom: She's apparently this to her Loopers.
483
484!!Le-Eyo
485A minor African deity and debugger for Yggdrasil. Best known for almost causing the Tyranids to loop when he mistook Fenrir's code-checking list as a list of potential loopers, and started them all looping.
486----
487* LoserDeity: He's the African god of incompetence. Literally.
488* NiceJobBreakingItHero: His actions caused the Crisis.
489* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: He slipped into Fenrir's office and almost got a [[HordeOfAlienLocusts Tyranid]] to loop, which would have been a disaster because Tyranids are a HiveMind whose only purpose is to eat and grow- they'd be shoo-ins for MLE status and if even ''one'' Tyranid is Awake, ''they all are''.
490** It gets worse. That one instance later led to a virus uploading and spreading through several branches that was guaranteed to randomly start anyone looping that was still alive at the end of the loop, meaning any villains could have started looping. The Admins sent a notice to Anchors about this, leaving them to kill anyone who could have been dangerous had they started looping and that descriptor wasn't just limited to villains. And despite all those precautions a few of said characters still began looping.
491
492!!Yuguru
493The African deity who was formerly self-assigned to watch the [[Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica Mirakihari]] branches.
494----
495* TheAtoner: His original portfolio pre-Loops was as the "rebel" or "evil" god. He's doing his best to make up for his reputation.
496* HeroicSacrifice: Kept his Avatar inside the Mitakihara branch as Madoka was Ascending, to prevent the complete destruction of the Branch. He didn't die, but he was sent into a coma until the time the Branch was restored. He's apparently been hospitalized as a result.
497
498%%!!Mitra
499%%->Loops: ''Dinotopia'', ''Anime/DinoZaurs'', ''The Land Before Time''.
500%%Vedic goddess of truth and friendship. Works with Artemis and Ardwinna a lot due to their Loopers having a lot of Fused Loops together.
501%%----
502
503!!Masakado
504->Loops: [[Franchise/ShinMegamiTensei Amala]]
505The protector god of Tokyo.
506----
507* DeityOfHumanOrigin: He was a human in the middle ages who gave his life to protect Tokyo.
508* {{Determinator}}: This guy will do anything he can to stabilise the Amala loops, no matter what. Given that Amala is the most damaged branch since the Mega loops, and easily houses some of the most dangerous entities in the loops, that's saying something.
509* InformedFlaw: In one of his loops, Masakado says that he's not good at programming, as there weren't any computers by the time he died. Well, by the time we saw him again, he ''got'' good.
510
511!!Tu Di Gong
512->Loops: ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama''
513God of wealth and merit.
514----
515* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Despite wanting them to learn it for themselves, he does tell his loopers who their anchor is and, due to how shocking it was, promised all of them vacation loops in the future if they took it well.
516
517%%!!Kamohoali'i
518%%->Loops: ''Lilo & Stitch'', ''Moana'', ''Finding Nemo''
519%%Hawaiian shark god of sea navigation.
520%%----
521
522%%!!Medeina
523%%->Loops: ''Bambi'' ''Robin Hood'', ''Winnie the Pooh'', ''Pocahontas'', ''Brother Bear'', ''Zootopia'', ''A Bug's %%Life'', ''Brave''
524%%Lithuanian goddess of forests, trees, and animals.
525%%----
526
527%%!!Xolotl
528%%->Loops: ''Gravity Falls'', ''Monster's Inc.'', ''The Nightmare Before Christmas'', ''The Suite Life of Zack and Cody'' and ''Pair of Kings'', and by proxy, the rest of the DLAU.
529%%Aztec god of monsters and twins. Manifests as an Axolotl.
530%%----
531
532%%!!Turms
533%%->Loops: ''The Emperor's New Groove'', ''Cars'', ''Ratatouille'', ''Mary Poppins''
534%%Etruscan messenger god.
535%%----
536[[/folder]]
537
538[[folder:Admins - Other Origins]]
539!!Madoka Kaname
540->Loops: ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'', ''Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica''
541
542The only Admin who isn't based on any god, goddess or mythological figure. Madoka was tricked into ascending by Kyubey, destroying the Loop she was the Anchor for.\
543
544In recent times, thanks to the help of Skuld and the friends she has within the Admins, she was able to reactivate her home loop, placing Sayaka Miki as the new Anchor, while not erasing her mistake, allowing her to return to her self-imposed role as the Goddess Madoka, becoming the ''literal'' Goddess of Puella Magi.
545----
546* AfterlifeWelcome: In baseline, she did this for ''every single magical girl''.
547* AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence: What she did just before breaking her Loop, by accident.
548* BadassAdorable: She's a god who comes in the form of a fourteen year old girl, with a preference for wearing pink.
549* TheFriendNobodyLikes: A lot of the other Admins are decidedly frosty towards her. Hephaestus meanwhile is acting as a mentor toward her, and she's managed to become a friend with Morpheus, the Admin for the DC Loops. Hecate also likes her for helping take away some of the stress of her job.
550* GodInHumanForm: It's easy to forget that she's an Admin, with how much she doesn't look, act or sound like a divine being.
551* ItsPersonal: More than anyone else in the Loop, she has the most reason to despise Kyubey.
552* NiceJobBreakingItHero: She didn't set out to break her universe, or damage Yggdrasil.
553* OnceDoneNeverForgotten: People are still using her Ascension and its consequences as a cautionary tale to this day.
554* RageBreakingPoint: [[SubvertedTrope Didn't quite make it,]] but she was close to reaching it when [[TraumaCongaLine she had a long string of bad luck]] during [[MustHaveCaffeine The Great Coffee Shortage,]] to the point where she [[BrassBalls threatened her boss over cutting in line.]]
555* SacredBowAndArrows: Her bow was the ''only'' thing saving her universe from total collapse.
556* YouCantGoHomeAgain: Even after restoring her universe, due to her ascension to becoming the '''''literal''''' Goddess Madoka, she cannot return to her loop ever, and can only meet her friends face-to-face on administrative tasks.
557
558!!Mythos Hackers
559-> '''Sleipnir:''' They're the 4Chan of Yggdrasil!
560
561A collection of rogue hackers and viruses based around the [[Franchise/CthulhuMythos Lovecraftian Mythos]] (and other popular [[EldritchAbomination Eldritch Abominations]]). Not actually Admins, but often beings on the same level. It's a little unclear as to whether they're beings the Mythos was based on, grew (and Ascended) out of the Mythos's popularity, or minor Admin-level entities who decided to adopt identities from the Mythos. Possibly a combination given how many there are.
562----
563* AttentionDeficitOhShiny: They got off track over the idea of Activating [[VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys3 Springtrap]] over tacos, of all things. Naturally, they blame Slenderman.
564* BullyingTheDragon: Cthulhu went around to make attack on Loopers, trying to drive them mad... And succeeded with Harry Dresden, whose admin is [[TheDreaded Nemesis]]. Needless to say, he pays for it.
565* ButtMonkey: Slenderman, who gets the short end of the stick more often than not.
566* CollectiveIdentity: Above and beyond being known as a group, there's some uncertainty if there's only one entity posing as any given Mythos manifestation (ex. Cthulhu) or several trying to claim the identity. That said, they're exactly like 4chan, in that they're more than happy to mock each other when they either fail, or they're angry for some trivial reason.
567* EpicFail: The quote above is rather apt. While they're powerful in their own right, more than once have they screwed up their plans, especially Slenderman, [[spoiler:who manages to stabilize an Anchor rather than the opposite, more than once. At one point, when he messed with a Fused Loop between Inside Out and Mega Man, he got caught, chased and eventually run over by a train summoned by Tama.]] Cthulhu also ended up failing when he decided to handle Squidward's Baseline. That ended with [[ItMakesSenseInContext Patrick slicing off his mouth tentacles with a razor.]] Needless to say, NoSympathy for either.
568* PetTheDog: Some of them, at least, are capable of this. Yog-Sothoth helped stabilize the Fate Grand Order section of the Nasuverse in its Activation Loop and is genuinely fond of Abigail (who Activated as a looper because of that incident) to the point of helping her Activate two friends who would have ceased to exist otherwise. Shub-Niggurath also had a friendly conversation with Phelan Kell where she reassured him that his problems with looping in as someone wolf-related in literally every single loop were soon to be over and gave him a few details about why it was happening to begin with.
569* PutOnABusToHell: Slenderman, after one too many attempts to destabilize Yggdrasil, was caught and punished harshly, and is now residing in Maharaurava for all eternity. [[AndThereWasMuchRejoicing The other Mythos Hackers are grateful for Nemesis.]]
570* {{Troll}}: Pretty much all of them to pretty much everyone and everything else (including each other).
571* WithFriendsLikeThese: Not a cohesive group by any stretch of the imagination. It seems the Mythos Hackers are just as entertained by watching each other fail as watching anyone else.
572
573!!The UsefulNotes/FlyingSpaghettiMonster
574
575An admin level being who appears on occasion, running Yggdrasil's cafeteria and break rooms. [[MultipleChoicePast Where it came from is a mystery]].
576----
577* BewareTheNiceOnes: Normally chill, but if you provoke it, it crashes your loop and you get stuck [[Creator/FourKidsEntertainment in a 4 Kids variant loop along the lines of their One Piece dub]].
578* PalsWithJesus: It's the "Jesus" in this case - it hangs out with Captain Jack Sparrow in his Loop from time to time.
579
580!! SantaClaus
581
582The admin in charge of Yggdrasil's gift shop. May of may not be Odin in disguise
583
584* SantaAmbiguity: Whether he is Odin in disguise or not is still up in the air.
585
