| 22 | ** ''VideoGame/BioShock'' Deities: '''[[Pantheon/SocialAndRecreationalWork Booker DeWitt and Elizabeth]]''', [[Pantheon/MindControl Jack]], [[Pantheon/CyberneticsAndEnhancements Subject Delta]] |
| 23 | ** Other Allies: [[Pantheon/FieldsOfScience Albert Einstein]], [[Pantheon/OtherRelatives Reed Richards, Franklin Richards and Valeria Richards of the Richards Family]], [[Pantheon/TypesOfMechas Tony Stark/Iron Man]], [[Pantheon/TimeAndTemporality the Doctor]], [[Pantheon/PowerArchetypes Doctor Manhattan]] |
| 24 | * Enemies: [[Pantheon/SocialAndRecreationalWork Booker DeWitt]] (as Zachary Comstock - long story), [[Pantheon/CharacterChanges Andrew Ryan]], [[Pantheon/{{Mothers}} Sofia Lamb]], [[Pantheon/FearsomeArchetypes Regime Superman]], [[Pantheon/TimePlacement Funny Valentine]], [[Pantheon/MotivationsForEvil Red Skull]] ([[Pantheon/VillainousRoles and by extension, HYDRA]]), [[Pantheon/VillainousAttitude M. Bison]], [[Pantheon/ActsOfWar SKYNET]], [[Pantheon/{{Trickery}} Doctor Doom]], [[Pantheon/{{Leadership}} Darkseid]], [[Pantheon/{{Continuities}} The Anti-Monitor]] |
| 25 | * The Pantheon holds an annual outdoor festival in which the deities can mingle and enjoy themselves. However, reports come in regarding a strange duo in Victorian-era clothing. The gods thought it was [[WesternAnimation/BatmanGothamByGaslight Bruce Wayne and his fiancée dressing up for kicks]]. But that notion was shot down as Bruce and Selina were seen with Clark and Lois Kent. After overhearing the description of the duo, Booker [=DeWitt=] and his daughter both confirmed that the duo in question are Rosalind and Robert Lutece. |
| 26 | * Not even the Main House knows how the Luteces managed to ascend to the Pantheon without them knowing. The pair explained that they opened a Tear and stepped through, thinking that it would bring them to Columbia. Instead, they found a less-than-amused Booker and Elizabeth, who told them where they were. So they decided to stay. The Main House allowed this, provided that they try to keep their antics down to a minimum. |
| 27 | * Due to their Victorian attire, the pair stick out like a sore thumb, which made them change their attire to more modern, conservative business suits. Rosalind still keeps her hair done up the same. |
| 28 | * Wanna know the secret behind Columbia being a floating city? You can thank Rosalind for that, as she discovered how to make an atom hover in the air. This puts her on the radar of both the GUAG and the GUAE, as they want to use her technology to further their own goals. |
| 29 | * The Luteces are not siblings, per se, but rather alternative versions of the other from parallel universes. Kinda like how there are two Supermen in the Pantheon; [[Pantheon/{{Heroism}} the boyscout]] and [[Pantheon/FearsomeArchetypes his Regime counterpart]], not to mention [[Pantheon/GenderSexMiscellaneousKara Zor-El]] and her own counterpart, [[Pantheon/BodyImages Kara Zor-L]]. And there's [[Pantheon/{{Eyewear}} Al Wesker]] and his 'sister', [[Pantheon/FormsOfImmortality Alex]], albeit from the same universe. |
| 30 | * Due to their expertise in quantum physics, the Luteces have published two books on the subject; ''The Principles of Quantum Mechanics'', written by Rosalind Lutece, and ''Barriers to Trans-Dimensional Travel'', a joint effort by both siblings. Elizabeth knows of the first one, not because she read it during her time in Columbia, [[VideoGame/BioshockInfinite but the fact that tried to bash her dad over the head with it]], as she sheepishly admitted. Bruce Wayne, Lex Luthor, and Doctor Manhattan read the books. Tony Stark had leafed through it. T'Challa has it in his library, of which Reed Richards wants to borrow it. |
| 31 | * Their current state is thanks to Columbia's founder, Zachary Comstock (i.e., Booker [=DeWitt=] having turned [[FallenHero into a fundamentalist, racist jerkass despot post-baptism]]). Comstock had Jeremiah Fink to sabotage the Lutece Device [[HeKnowsTooMuch upon discovering that the Luteces planned on reuniting Elizabeth with her true dad]], which resulted in their supposed deaths. Instead, they were scattered across time and space, appearing at will in the past, present and future, combined with the ability to open Tears. [[NiceJobFixingItVillain So yeah, good going Comstock. You just made the Luteces immortal]]. |
| 32 | ** Due to not having a physical body, it also grants them both complete and total invulnerability, much to their amusement. Gunshots to the head? Nope. A powerful haymaker that can shatter a jaw? No good. Doesn't stop the bad guys (and Booker, on occasion) from trying, especially when the bad guys try to steal the secrets behind the Lutece Device. Unless you're Doctor Doom, [[ComicBook/SecretWars2015 who is known for making cosmic beings bend to his will]]. |
| 33 | ** Their temple is a recreation of their home back in Columbia. [[{{Selfcest}} And it has only one bed...one double-sized bed]]. Think about that for a moment. As Rosalind put it: "For what separates us now, but a single chromosome?" |
| 34 | * Regarding the Rapture deities, the two heroes Jack and Delta are appreciated as good cases of the "constants and variables" provided by the universe, while Andrew Ryan and Sofia Lamb are viewed with nothing but scorn - even if the former showed some disdain for Dr. Suchong's attempt at a Lutece Device. |
| 35 | * Even the Luteces know that while they are invunerable, it can only take them so far. [[ComicBook/SecretWars2015 Given how easily he can bend even cosmic beings to his will]], do the Luteces give Victor Von Doom a wide berth. And unlike Darkseid and the Anti-Monitor, even the Luteces knows that messing around with the Anti-Life Equation is tantamount to suicide, thus pitting themselves against Darkseid and the Anti-Monitor. |
| 36 | * Got on The Institute's bad side when they opened a Tear into their underground base/temple. Oh, the Luteces had a field day with that one, as the synths and Coursers tried - and failed - to kill them both. |
| 37 | * Regime Superman wants to use the Lutece Device to bring the rest of his Regime buddies to the Pantheon (and quite possibly start another war). Robert points out that it would be better if he brought his Lois here instead. But when Regime Supes demands that the Luteces do just that, they refused. |
| 38 | -->'''Rosalind:''' It’s up to you what matters more:\ |
| 39 | '''Robert:''' Your part in the play…\ |
| 40 | '''Rosalind:''' …or the play itself. |
| 41 | * For some odd reason, [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic a pair of ponies]] that [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS4E19TradeYa looked quite similar to them]] were spotted with an empty bird cage. They haven't answered yet as to what they were doing there. |

| 66 | * Opposes: [[Pantheon/PositiveReaction Godzilla]] |
| 67 | * On one quiet day, a strange blue light zipped through the Houses and making quite the stir, causing many of the deities to chase it to see just what the hell was it. As the orb came to a stop, everyone within the distance of it heard the sound of an harmonica, which caused many of the extraterrestrial gods [[BrownNote much discomfort.]] As everyone gathered around it, the light dimmed down to reveal the entity: Gai Kurenai/Ultraman Orb has arrived in the Pantheon. |
| 68 | * Gai Kurenai/Ultraman Orb is an HumanAlien who, ''long'' ago, was an elite soldier in a force on his homeworld: Planet O-50. One day on his world, a bright halo of light was located at a mountain peak called Warrior's Peak. Going there and harnessing it's light as his own, Gai was given the power of an Ultra, and thus, awakened as Ultraman Orb, the Warrior of Light. |
| 69 | * Despite making quite the entrance, Gai himself really didn't appear in the Pantheon on purpose. He was guided here by his Orb Calibur since it usually takes him to places that call upon him. That being said, he never expected to see be in this kind of place with so much going on in both good, evil, and otherwise in all his years. Still, as a traveler and protector of his galaxy, he is more than willing to see what this place has in store for him. |
| 70 | * First met with the original Ultraman, who was positively ECSTATIC that he wasn't the only Ultra to have ascended anymore, and was more than willing to show him around. Likewise, Gai was very glad to see an very familiar face in such an huge and diverse place, and thanked his elder for giving him his power when he need it. |
| 71 | * Being a guardian of his own Earth and galaxy as a whole, Gai was very glad to see others just like him such as Hal Jordan and Kyle Rayner, who also have important creeds of they're own. The two were very happy to ally with someone very similar and heroic as Gai and being more than willing to help him out when the time comes, with Gai promising the same. |
| 72 | * Taking his creeds seriously, he found kinship in others who do the same like Jon Snow, Ezio Auditore, and Abin Sur. |
| 73 | * Surprisingly for someone such has him, Gai has obtained many friendly relations with Princesses Celestia and Luna, who reminds him much of Princess Tamayura who [[spoiler: who died to protect him.]] Due to being so respectful and polite, the two have taken a liking to Gai, and even introduced to their niece, Princess Cadance. |
| 74 | * Speaking of rulers, he also gets along with Sailor Galaxia. She reminds him of one of his heralds, Queen Amate, whom he met during his first adventure as Ultraman Orb. They've both bonded over [[spoiler: being possessed by wicked darkness, but managing to overcome them.]] |
| 75 | * Being apart of a race of SpacePolice, Gai very much is ready to take on the many [[GalacticConqueror Galactic Conquerors]] that reside in the Pantheon, like Darksied and Frieza. Many of those same people are wary of Gai, since he's Really700YearsOld and has had ALOT of experience taking down the likes of them. |
| 76 | * With fighting evil kaiju practically in the job description of an Ultraman, creatures like King Ghidorah has found themselves on his shitlist. When the time comes, he swears he will bring him down and others like him. |
| 77 | * Oddly enough, takes [[SeriousBusiness bathhouse etiquette VERY seriously]], as seen in his frequent visits in the ones present in the Houses where he won't put up with [[HairTriggerTemper ANY]] [[AccidentalPervert antics]] [[HilarityEnsues in]] [[NotWhatItLooksLike there]]. |
| 78 | * Doesn't approve of Godzilla, what with all the destructive he tends to bring on Earth, whether or not it's on purpose. |
| 79 | * Due to encountering an evil entity known Reibatos back in his universe, Gai has found enemies in Kel'Thuzad, Nagash the Undying, and Ainz Ooal Gown, all of whom are watching him VERY closely considering the fact that he spent 10 years training to obtain a form, Emerium Slugger, that delivered a CurbStompBattle to said necromancer. |
| 80 | * Speaking of Emerium Slugger, because said form combines wisdom and courage with light, he's gained the favor of both Link and Zelda. |
| 81 | * REALLY doesn't like the Joker, who reminds Gai too much of [[spoiler: his former friend and comrade]] Jugglus Juggler. |
| 82 | * Holds the King of the Cosmos in high regard since he reminds him very much of Ultraman King, the god of the Ultraman. |
| 83 | * ''[[ByThePowerOfGrayskull "The light of the galaxy is calling me!"]]'' |

| 105 | * Loyal listener of: [[Pantheon/MusicalCompositions Richard Wagner]]. |
| 106 | * Daniel Bryan, real name Bryan Danielson, was a darling wrestler in the indie scenes before he made it to the WWE as part of NXT's 1st Season. Initially seen as a babyface good guy, he quickly rose to fame for his great submission moves and the famous NXT riot that ended with him choking Justin Roberts out with his own tie. For this, he was released with hopes for "future endeavors", until he returned just two months later joining John Cena's team of ragtag wrestlers -- some who bailed before the match even began -- and began going into an underdog story of becoming a star in the WWE Universe. |
| 107 | ** There was one point in his career that he did a heel turn, and whenever he scored a victory, he would punctuate this by screaming "YES! YES! YES!" While fans were still supportive of him, things completely changed during one ''[=WrestleMania=]'' match when he was clocked out in less than 30 seconds. The shock of how he was treated made the audience chant "YES!" in support of their champion, and this word became synonymous to him as the BigWhat did to Stone Cold Steve Austin. The movement continued to grow until he finally ended up becoming a champion after wrestling for an hour and the Authority doing everything they could to take him down. |
| 108 | * CM Punk, one of Bryan's allies used the popularity of this one word (which, funnily enough, was the first word he would ''ever'' say on NXT) as reason for why he should obtain this seat. With approval from the Court of the Gods, and "Ride of the Valkyries" playing, Daniel Brya ascended with his mortal followers screaming "YES! YES! YES!". |
| 109 | ** It's become a HUGE game for the Trollkaigers to make him do something that makes him scream "NO!" and then reply with the BigYes of their own. |
| 110 | * During his Heel days, Daniel Bryan was able to knock ''John Cena'' off of his feet screaming, "YOU ARE NOT BETTER THAN ME!!!". Also had a thing for choking people with ties, thus ties are no longer allowed to be worn within a 500 foot radius of him. |
| 111 | * Is currently in a BigYes show-of against M. Bison. It is [[MundaneMadeAwesome GLORIOUS.]] |
| 112 | ** When he and Steve Austin are together, the HamToHamCombat they generate is magnificent. |
| 113 | * On the days he teamed up with Kane, they had to go through extensive anger management which ended with them usually having to "hug it out" after matches to show how much of a 'tag team' they became. This became comedy gold with not only the Trollkaigers, but pretty much everyone else in the Pantheon...except for those who teamed up with them and also had to go through those group hugs. |
| 114 | * Hated being called a "goat face" for a time. Nearly put [[Pantheon/TheatricVisuals Animal]] in the Yes! Lock when the drummer had the audacity to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBnbgusXTYw call him that]]. |
| 115 | ** Also gets on [[Pantheon/{{Personality}} Uncle Chan's]] bad side due to Uncle being irritated with his own goat nickname ("Billy goat"). |
| 116 | * Has a strange thing about wrestling bears for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ta__kdPU7SU&feature=youtu.be&t=6m40s some odd reason.]] He tried to get [[Pantheon/{{Mammals}} Winnie the Pooh]] into the bear hug and was rewarded with poor Pooh-bear's "stuff and fluff" exploding on him from the pressure. It took the House of Craft days to get Pooh back together, all while Pooh snacked on honey as an apology from Daniel Bryan. |
| 117 | ** Gets along with Zangief due to this, after seeing how Zangief wrestled a group of bears on his way to a wrestling match. |
| 118 | * Would like to announce that '''[[IAmTheNoun I'M THE TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS!]]''' |
| 119 | * Many of the good-aligned wrestlers in the Pantheon (particularly CM Punk) screamed a humongous BigNo on December 30, 2013 after finding out that he's gone to join the Wyatt Family in despair. Bray Wyatt just grinned and asked whether that single heinous act would let them ascend into the Pantheon...only for the gods commence with a BigYes when they found out that it was what he wanted all along. He wanted to get Bray Wyatt alone in a Steel Cate Match two weeks later and pounded him to oblivion, all while everyone screamed, "YES! YES! YES! YES! YES!" |
| 120 | * Has gotten so [[EnsembleDarkhorse over the top]] that any attempt to put him down just makes him liked even ''more''. When it was revealed that he was not a contender in the Pantheon Wrestling Federation's Royal Rumble (the Number 30 was Rey Mysterio), the next thing that could be heard were people chanting his name, "No!" or booing everyone. Vince sort of cringed when he noticed that '''Rey Mysterio''', of all wrestlers, was booed. |
| 121 | ** And then, at Wrestlemania XXX, he did the impossible and became '''WWE World Heavyweight Champion'''. The roof on the Pantheon exploded with people chanting "YES! YES! YES!" so loud that it caused all the windows in the Pantheon to shatter. |
| 122 | * Shocked the wrestling world in February 2016 when he had to retire from wrestling and ended up becoming the General Manager of the PWF...until 2 years later before Wrestlemania 34 when [[CueTheFlyingPigs he was cleared to wrestle once more]]. '''Every single wrestler''' screamed "YES! YES! YES!" to the heavens. |
| 123 | ** And after being victorious in a Tag-Team Match, his first official match after that was against ''AJ Styles''. "This is Awesome!" didn't begin to describe the feeling. |
| 124 | * He's gotten a kinship with [[Pantheon/CombatWrestling Incineroar]] and couldn't help but chuckl he learned that trainers who unleash Incineroar's Malicioius Moonsault [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=plRUZL0PYQI point their fingers to the air like he does.]] |

| 137 | * Annoys: [[Pantheon/VillainousRoles Malefor]] |
| 138 | * Opposes: Any OmnicidalManiac |
| 139 | * [[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer Yes, that's Skyland's biggest threat.]] Kaos is the evil Portal Master responsible for a majority of Skylands woes. However, armed with an army of trolls, access to powerful magic, knowledge of ancient weaponry, and some surprisingly well thought-out plans show that [[NotSoHarmlessVillain even a little guy like him can be a threat with the right equipment.]] [[LaughablyEvil When he's not making an ass of himself, of corse]]. |
| 140 | ** Originally, [[VideoGame/Dota2 Lucifer the Doom]] proudly held this trope. However, recent investigations have discovered that he actually [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere left with telling anyone for some reason]]. When brainstorming ideas for someone to take the trope in his place, they noticed that the Skylanders were battling Kaos, who's been invading the Pantheon for quite some time now. Figuring that he was just gonna come back, not to mention the fact that he screams "DOOOOOM" every five seconds, the gods just gave him the title of '''[[DoomyDoomsOfDoom Doom Related Phrases]]''', much to the Skylanders annoyance, and to Kaos's utter glee. |
| 141 | * While he really doesn't care about the Skylanders individually, more focusing on hating them as a group, he fully acknowledges Spyro as one of the bigger pains in the army, seeing how the dragon already had experience before joining them. This had the effect of him teaming up with Ripto and Gnasty Gnorc, the former due to his hatred of the purple menace, and the latter because he reminded Kaos of his old troll army he used to have. |
| 142 | ** His hatred of the Skylanders has also landed him enemies with Crash Bandicoot and Donkey Kong, since [[GuestFighter they too were part of them for a bit]]. Either way, the idea that ''anyone'' can join the Skylanders has Kaos genuinely worried. |
| 143 | ** That said, he managed to land an alliance with Bowser and Dr. Cortex, both of whom were former members as well, having been persuaded by the team to do so. Naturally, he likes to gloat how he "stole" the Skylanders former teammates, not knowing (Or caring) that [[ObviousJudas they were expecting them to defect from them.]] |
| 144 | * Speaking of Spyro's old enemies, he's also made an alliance with the sorceress, mostly with the promise of letting her kill the dragon herself. However, it should be noted that he's critical of her decision to kill all dragons, even when she doesn't have to. [[PragmaticVillainy Not that he cares about the dragons, mind you, he just thinks its unnecessary motive fodder.]] |
| 145 | * It should be noted that the amount of times he's had a OneWingedAngel Power-Up is ''ridiculous''. These range from a robotic fist turning him into a giant robot king, using crystalized evil to grow huge, turning himself into a RealityWarper to attack the Portal Master, and a super form [[ShoutOut that looks oddly similar to Super Sayian]]. This continues with the Pantheon, at one point getting a hold of Majora's Mask and using it to try and crush the Skylanders with the Moon. |
| 146 | * He's repeatedly tried to gain the alliance of Malefor, the demonic dragon who [[AlwaysABiggerFish vastly outmatches Kaos in evil.]] Unsurprisingly, he's rather annoyed with the portal master, dismissing him as nothing more than a annoying pest. To be fair, it was obvious [[ChronicBackstabbingDisorder Kaos was gonna try to backstab him]], but even then, he's not stopping his goals. |
| 147 | * Opposes any OmnicidalManiac, as he believes that he should rule the Pantheon, not destroy it. The fact that the last time he teamed up with one, he promptly betrayed it and helped the Skylanders defeat it, doesn't earn much respect from them either. This means the GUAD is on his shit list. |
| 148 | * Believe it or not, Kaos was actually in the Pantheon before. To be specific, ''his clone was''. Y'see, one time Kaos tried to clone himself in order to double his evil. However, his clone was too stubborn, and the clone decided to aid the Skylanders in order to overthrow his clone as the evilest Kaos, in the process becoming a surprisingly valuable ally. And no, Kaos doesn't want to talk about it. |
| 149 | * Upon hearing fellow god talk about [[{{Expy}} how similar he is to Zim]], he decided to sought out the irkian invader. Naturally, the two formed a quick alliance, with the two agreeing to split the Pantheon: Zim gets the ground, Kaos gets the sky. While the two do occasionally get into HamToHamCombat, overall they do seem to get along fine. They will deny how similar they are when compared, though. |
| 150 | * Kaos first discovered his power through bringing his toys-to-life ([[{{Pun}} Eh?]]) so that he could have friends. The results were the Willikin, a race of sentient puppets that pretend to be inanimate just to mess with people. While they're friendly, they are also completely loyal to Kaos, and while most of them live in a village, a few of them are still at his castle, happily doing his bidding. Seeing how he's a puppet himself, this understandably creeped out Pinocchio, who usually stays out of his way. He's happy to chat with the Willikin, though, if given the chance. |
| 151 | * Upon hearing of the Doomslayer, Kaos ''immediately'' set out to find him, foolishly confident that he's able to defeat him with his massive army, which, to his credit, he went all out on. [[CurbStompBattle To say it didn't help at all would be an understatement to end all understatements]]. Eventually, the Skylanders themselves had to bail him out, convincing the Slayer to spare him (Since he wasn't demonic or an unstoppable threat, he was perfectly fine with it). Kaos still hasn't forgotten about that, and has been wising up on who he picks a fight with ever since, though he'll happily wait for an opportunity to kill the Slayer. |

| 165 | * Ascended to the Pantheon thanks to Neo and Morpheus petitioning for her case, and for more help in stopping Agent Smith. Lisbeth Salander also helped in this, given that Trinity would be her former High Priestess once she gets her new temple. |
| 166 | * As heroes in a virtual world, Trinity has become allies with Kevin Flynn, his son Sam, Tron, and Yuuki Konno. She and Morpheus have also been invited to join the White Hats, and they immediately accepted the offer. |
| 167 | * The Inception Crew sometimes request Trinity's help during their missions, and she sees similarities in the dream-like world they go to and the Matrix. |
| 168 | * She would make allies with yet another anti-robot revolutionary in John Connor. [[spoiler:When he isn't under SKYNET's thrall, anyway]]. |
| 169 | * As a badass female combat expert like herself, she's managed to befriend Izumi and the Major. |
| 170 | * As deeply malevolent artificial intelligences, Trinity's come to oppose SKYNET, Sigma, the Master Control Program (and by extension the Pantheon/GrandUnitedAllianceOfMachines), especially Sigma (being a dangerous virus like Agent Smith) and the MCP (being the BigBad in a movie that dealt with virtual reality). |
| 171 | * Even if he's backed off for now, Ameno-Sagiri wanted to create a world of lies, which is in opposition to the free will/freedom of choice she, Morpheus, and Neo want to give to people. As such, shes' vowed to put a stop to him alongside the Investigation Team. |
| 172 | ** This goes for the Cybermen, too. |
| 173 | * Because the Borg and YHVH desire an end to personal individuality, Trinity has become enemies with them too. |
| 174 | * Sugou gained yet another enemy in her because he's a disgusting pervert and killer GM who would cause major harm with the Matrix. |
| 175 | * The most issues she has though is with Metal Face, whose penchant for impaling [[spoiler:reminds her of her own death]]. |
| 176 | * Because of his similarities with Agent Smith (in fact, Smith helped ascend him to begin with), Trinity opposes XANA for his destructiveness in the real world (or "meatspace" as [[TabletopGame/{{Shadowrun}} Shadowrunner deckers]] would say). And on account of them opposing XANA, she has allied with the Lyoko Warriors not unlike the other virtual fighters she's become allies with. |
| 177 | ** Notably, both the Lyoko Warriors and XANA alike oppose Agent Smith [[EnemyMine and will join forces to stop him]]. Trinity detests the idea that it would have to come to that. |

| 200 | * ''"You're ten years early!"'' was shout in the Pantheon. Many deities heard it for one reason: Akira Yuki, Bajiquan instructor who competed in every Virtua Fighter Tournament, has ascended to the Pantheon. |
| 201 | * One wonder why he wasn't given Intermediate God status in spite of him being the pioneer of the polygonal fighting games back in 1993? In his realm, there are no supernatural occurences and the way they fight is only with their fists. |
| 202 | * Believe it or not, while Akira normally is a non-nonsense [[TheStoic stoic]], one alternate universe regards him as a [[IdiotHero shonen-esque hero]] who fights for justice. This reveal alone surprised a lot of people. |
| 203 | * Possess another uniform, albeit a blue and red one. This is because his normal white outfit is [[AlternateCompanyEquivalent too similar]] to Ryu's. Akira uses those outfits in some [[TheAnimeOfTheGame spe]][[Videogame/FightersMegamix cial]] [[Videogame/ProjectXZone occa]][[Videogame/DengekiBunkoFightingClimax sions]]. |
| 204 | * Is friends with Aladdin, Aikuro, Lockon, Gyro, Urahara, Roy and Ryusei due to having [[ShinichiroMiki the same voice actor]]. He is even more impressed with the latter, because Ryusei, [[Videogame/SuperRobotWarsAlpha in a certain moment]], said his catchphrase. |
| 205 | ** That being said, he is also not fond of James of Team Rocket, Roman Torchwick, Starjun and Zamasu for the same reason, especially the former, whose InTheNameOfTheMoon is evil, even though it talks about "protecting the world from devastation". Thankfully, with the help of Charizard, Akira made the Team Rocket blasting off again. |
| 206 | ** In regards to Zamasu, the genocidal god also feels insulted everytime he listen Akira's catchphrase. |
| 207 | * Aside of the aforemeted Ryusei, Akira was impressed with [[Pantheon/PersonsOfDesire Bayonetta]], which is also off those people who said his CatchPhrase. While he respects her as a fighter, he is not exactly amused by her charms. Also, her alluring and seductive voice makes him feeling unconfortable, because [[Creator/AtsukoTanaka she reminds him]] of a evil scientist that he fought in the past. |
| 208 | * Since one of his most important rival is Kagemaru, he respects ninjas like Ryu Hayabusa, Kasumi and Strider Hiryu. |
| 209 | ** Speaking of Kasumi, Akira is aware that he is not the only Bajiquan praticioner here. After meeting Kokoro, he decides to help her and Elliot in their trainings. |
| 210 | * Akira's most prominent rivals in the Pantheon are Ryu, Terry Bogard, Jin Kazama, Kyo Kusanagi, Ryo Sakazaki and Liu Kang. [[spoiler:Unfortunately, due to the 25 years prophecy, Akira declares war on Liu and Kitana after their Face Heel Turns.]] |
| 211 | ** That being said, he still has hope in the form of Johnny Cage and Sonya Blade, as they remind him of his allies Jacky and Sarah Bryant, [[spoiler:even after the 25 years prophecy.]] He also befriended Nightwolf, as he also reminds him of Wolf Hawkfield, one of his rivals. |
| 212 | ** Akira is also friends with Chun-Li and Xiaoyu, as they reminds him of his chinese friend Pai-chan. He also feels sorry for Cammy, as her story of being brainwashed to serve the villains is also similar to Sarah. |
| 213 | * Alongside [[Pantheon/FightingAndCombat Ryu, Chun-Li, Xiaoyu]],[[Pantheon/{{Gaming}} Ken]],[[Pantheon/SplitPersonalities Jin Kazama]] and many people, he travelled with [[Pantheon/CrossoversAndReferences Reiji and Xiaomu]] twice to save three world from the hands of [[spoiler: Meden Traore and Byakushin]]. |
| 214 | ** Akira is no strange to dealing with multiple gods, as he entered [[Videogame/FightersMegamix a tournament involving many Fighting Vipers characters.]]In fact, he expects to see his friend Bahn ascend the Pantheon someday... |
| 215 | ** He also entered [[Videogame/DengekiBunkoFightingClimax another tournament,]] this time involving many anime characters including some other gods in the Pantheon. Alongside his ally Pai, Akira showed his full potential in said tournament. |

| 233 | * Special Relationship: '''[[Pantheon/{{Personalities}} Dr. Evil]]''' |
| 234 | * One of the few spies that didn't follow James Bond, Austin Powers struck it out on his own for a time. It was his constant use of the BondOneLiner that forced the gods to give him the title. Bond may be the originator, but no one else could use it in the same frequency. |
| 235 | * Now serves as a spy for the GUAG. Unforunately, few gods have been able to tolerate his one-liners upon the death of an enemy. He's been known to quote as many as 7 for ''one man.'' Though some believe it can be used as psychological warfare against the GUAE. |
| 236 | * One of the few gods that can handle his puns has been Yang. In fact, she hopes to one-up on him by dishing out puns of her own. Expect the quips to fly whenever the two are together. Some say the two are planning to ascend a true PungeonMaster into the fray. |
| 237 | * The reason he's not a follower of the God of Secret agents? Bond secretly despises him for parodying his adventures to the point that no one takes the classic take on him seriously anymore. It took a [[Film/CasinoRoyale2006 new film]] with a [[Creator/DanielCraig different avatar]] to shake off the dissent among his followers. |
| 238 | ** Unfortunately the situation was brought back to him: [[spoiler: When his old foe Blofeld was stirring up trouble in his [[Film/{{Spectre}} latest film]], his nemesis revealed a terrible secret: the two were actually foster brothers, with him killing Bond's parents. Now that would have been a devastating reveal... if Austin hadn't had the same reveal with Dr. Evil 13 years ago.]] |
| 239 | * His ascension has put him at a confusing situation with Dr. Evil. Although the two resumed with the usual antics with each other, it's not with the same intensity. It has been revealed that the two enemies were foster brothers, separated when their were toddlers. Although there is one timeline where the two make amends, it doesn't appear to be the case with the two in the Pantheon. |
| 240 | ** There was one time when Dr. Evil teamed up with Cobra. Surprisingly, the duo were far more successful in capturing Austin. The Commander insisted in finishing him off, but Dr. Evil decided to put him in a trap instead. This tactic had [[BondVillainStupidity predictable results.]] The two have broken up ever since. |
| 241 | * His ChickMagnet capabilities is legendary, and thus he's a huge draw in the House of Pantheon/LustfulBehavior. It's no doubt that he's made rivals out of the various male gods in the pantheon. |
| 242 | ** The lone exception appears to be Jiraiya. He may be a pervert, but he only seeks out smut, but ask women out. Thus, the two often talk about their exploits. |
| 243 | ** Is also big favorite of Panty Anarchy for obvious reasons, though she does give him flack for serving under authority. |
| 244 | * Some people can see through his silly nature to reveal an agent that's pretty damn good at his job. Snake has received some criticism himself for some of the sillier antics he went through. It's no surprise that the two became closer partners. |
| 245 | * A deity that ascended sorely on his memetic and outlandish antics, Captain Falcon encourages the spy to continue what he does. |
| 246 | * Most female villains scoffed at the idea that he can make any of them fall in love. It's only that the two meet face to face that they figure it out, and by then it's often too late. Not even ''robot women'' are immune to his antics. Tarquin made a new section on his book to help alleviate the problem. |
| 247 | ** The only goddess that seems to be immune to his charms is Bellatrix Lestrange. The reasons? One: She hates all muggles equally, especially ones who think they are equal to wizards. And two: the only being she's ever loved will always be Lord Voldemort. His attempts at seduction backfire hard, barely escaping with his life. |
| 248 | * Was disappointed when he couldn't find any Japanese twins that fit the bill upon reaching the House of Family. Time will tell if he can achieve that last part of his bucket list. |
| 249 | * Although he was considered for a minute, Austin was deemed to flamboyant to be considered for the God of British Accents. However, he has offered his help in finding a more suitable candidate. |
| 250 | * When Shrek found out there was another deity with the [[Creator/MikeMyers same voice as his arch]] he was in no rush to make friends, unfortunately for him, Austin had other plans. After a throughout inspection, Austin ended up thrown out of Shrek's temple. |

| 277 | * General Shepherd was once the man that served as the supreme commander of the UMSC during their deployment in the Middle East in their efforts to overthrow Khaled Al-Asad and the Op-For following them overtaking the land and executing president Yasir Al-Fulani. Shepherd suffered a considerable loss after the nuke was detonated, killing around 30.000 U.S. Soldiers in an instant. This greatly affected the general who would later swear he would rebuilt the reputation of the US Army whatever mean necessary and for that he created Task Force 141 to be his guinea pig project and sparking a Third World War between the USA and Russia. With that, he sent a new recruit, Joseph Allen, undercover in Vladimir Makarov's inner circle to aid him in the infamous airport massacre, Makarov knowing full well Allen was just a mole and killed him to spark a war. But the true nature of Shepherd wouldn't be revealed until he sent half of the Task Force 141 to raid Makarov's hideout... |
| 278 | ** Following a narrow escape from Makarov's Estate, Lt. Simon "Ghost" Riley and Sgt. Gary "Roach" Sanderson were to rendezvous with Shepherd and the backup but Roach was injured in the process. The backup arrived on time, but neither man was prepared after Shepherd suddenly shot them both and disposed of their bodies, uttering the rather infamous [[WhamLine "Good, that's one less loose end"]]. For that, Shepherd was later ascended into the Pantheon with the WhamLine title. |
| 279 | * Concerning the public of his world, he died as a war hero but in the Pantheon his dirty laundry was made public the second he was made a deity, shattering any chance he could properly join the Pantheon/GrandUnitedAllianceOfGood or even other official military positions and became disgraced in the process, mostly because both [=MacTavish=] and Price were already deities on their own right. In the end the general wasn't too bothered by this inconvinience, preferring to acts as a "vigilante" and crush whoever he sees as someone that would threaten the security of the United States and he has plenty fish to fry with not only the aforementioned TF 141 soldiers but with both Makarov AND Zakhaev as threats he wants to personally put down in order to earn the glory of being the man to put a stop to them. |
| 280 | * While GUAG quickly distanced themselves from Shepherd concerning his betrayal of several of his people and that Shepherd himself [[EvenEvilHasStandards found GUAE]] to be even too much for him, he ended up finding himself allied with the Pantheon/GrandUnitedAllianceOfChaos. The main reason? Senator Steven Armstrong fully backed up Shepherd in his attempt to make America a super power again, even if ultimately the Senator is against war itself but understands that war does have its uses. He then pulled some strings to have Shepherd be a member of GUAC, even if the man himself isn't exactly looking to throw the world into chaos, at the least having someone backing him up might give him the edge in eliminating his opposition. |
| 281 | * While technically being disohonorable dischardged from being an official member of the Pantheonic military, Shepherd was wise enough to get his PMC, the Shadow Company, enter as his herald division and is now a lot more open about his illegal activities, often bordering on beign a full-blown terrorist to some but he has numerous times clarified he is doing it for the good of America and to avenge all those soldiers he lost in the Middle East. This in turn caught the attention of Big Boss who found Shepherd to be quite similar to him even if he is a lot more reckless and cares little for his own men, Big Boss decided to ally with him mostly to keep an eye on him and the Shadow Company and probably wouldn't have him be part of his group. |
| 282 | * He knows there are others from his home franchise that hail from slightly different timelines. He caught wind of Alex Mason, who became a sleeper agent for the Russians and was implicated in the assassination of JFK and neither are exactly on good terms with one another, Mason finding Shepherd to be deplorable and a disgrace to the US Military while the General find Mason's friendship with Viktor Reznov and Tashkent to be foolish but both recognize that [[EnemyMine Dragovich is as dangerous as Makarov and doesn't help the two are friends]]. Likewise, he will aid the GUAG if it can hinder [[Pantheon/EvilActions Raul Menedez]], who besides having a grudge against Mason he also has paid a visit to Shepherd and warned him that he too would fall against Cordis Die. |
| 283 | * It's no surprise that Shepherd is considered a Black Sheep among the deities who have ties to the military, orchestrating World War III and disposing of his own Task Force like it was nothing is unforgivable in many eyes, with both Jax Briggs and Sonya Blade (a general herself) finding the man to be the worst of the worst (which only got worse once word came that Shepherd was making a deal with Kano for an undisclossed reason), their respective daughters also having come to despise Shepherd for similar reasons. Commander Shepard is also disgusted that so many people keep confusing the two and stated they would never fall into the same pit that the General did and betray his own soldiers. |
| 284 | ** His ties to Big Boss and his subsequent alliance with Solidus Snake (who similarly can appreciate what he tried to accomplish) made it so several of the former two's enemies would also considering targetting Shepherd, with Solid Snake, Meryl Silverburgh and Johnny Sasaki having taken action in their attempts to bringing the General down. |
| 285 | * His betrayal of his men and the use of Shadow Company granted him the disgust of Alexander the Great, Leonidas and many others within the House of Pantheon/MilitaryAndWarfare. Likewise, Martin Walker despise him for being too much like his former superior, Konrad but Shepherd was quick to point out that [[VillainHasAPoint wasn't much better than him]], citing the White Phosporus incident as a much worse action that what Shepherd did (though it's hotly debated wether causing a war between America and Russia or bombing innocent civilians is worse). |
| 286 | * Shepherd also faced a lot of backlash given his roll in the war between Russia and America, the hunt for Makarov and getting the Task Force 141 disavowed. Several who think WarIsHell like Kiritsugu Emiya, siblings Seita and Setsuko and Obi-Wan Kenobi find his actions to be irredeemable in their eyes. He hardly cares for these but his betrayal also VERY infamous among people both in and outside the Pantheon, mourning the loss of Ghost and Roach to this day, which only certain member of the House of Pantheon/BetrayalAndTreachery have ever complimented Shepherd on it. |
| 287 | * Nowadays Shepherd is mostly the leader of a PMC (the aformentioned Shadow Company) even if he would rather not acknowledge this. He isn't exactly beloved by other mercenaries or even groups for that matter, with the Tactical Dolls being one of his most constant detractors in the PMC department, mostly because they were betrayed by a renegade branch not unlike what Shepherd did to TF 141. He finds the girls to be rather amusing rather than a serious threat but recognizes they are a potential threat to the Shadow Company. |
| 288 | * Joshua Graham found Shepherd to be a dark reflection what he used to be in the past, and is understanding of why would Shepherd would go to become like that following a nuclear explosion, he knows from experience after all. However, he nonetheless managed to become a better person and has tried to urge the general to do the same but Shepherd has chosen to ignore Graham and brush him off as a lunatic. |
| 289 | * His connections in the pantheonic criminal underworld have been shaky to say the least, mostly given a deal gone wrong he once had with Yuri Orlov. The man being ukranian was already a red flag for him but he could provide his group with firearms but Orlov set Shepherd up and lured him and his men into a trap set up by Makarov but luckily Shepherd was able to overcome them and has since tried to hunt down Orlov for this. But not everything has been problems, Miles Quaritch was a disgraced military man just like him and saw a kindred spirit in Shepherd, offering the man a partnership that Shepherd accepted after hearing that Quaritch had access to futuristic technology and some rare resources from an alien planet. |

| 307 | * Annoys: [[Pantheon/MortalKombat Every Mortal Combat Deity]] |
| 308 | * Vanoss's friends, as one might know, make up quite the colorful cast of characters. One of the most notable, however, is H20 Delirious. One of Vanoss's older friends, he's well known for [[TheFaceless never revealing what his real face looks like]]. That's far from the only notable aspect of him, however, with other quirks such as being [[CloudCuckooLander incredibly odd]], [[TheyKilledKennyAgain dying more than his friends]], [[CompanionCube having an obsession with Teddy Bears]], and of course, [[ARareSentence saying weird things at random]]. These quirks make him stand out as one of the more popular members of the group. |
| 309 | * Vanoss, Nogla and Terrorizer had a dilemma. While messing around in the Pantheon was always fun, The ascended gang figured that it would be more fun with a few more of their group up in the Pantheon. As they were brainstorming ideas, Nogla started chuckling to himself, having remembered some of the stuff their friend Delirious said. Eventually, all three of them were laughing remembering some of the ridiculous stuff he said, with Brian lamp shading how they always came out of nowhere. [[EurekaMoment And then the realization hit them]]. A few hours later, a plane that looked like it was stolen from a military base crashed into an empty field, and out came Delirious, having been chosen for the title of '''[[ARareSentence Weirdly Uncommon Phrases]]''', and was ready to wreck havoc with his friends. |
| 310 | * Like his friends, he operates under video game rules. Delirious is usually seen as his GTA 5 avatar, a blue hoodie and a hockey mask with clown makeup under it. He also has his arsenal from the game alongside him, alongside the ability to respawn when he's killed, an ability he fully uses thanks to [[TheyKilledKennyAgain his abysmal luck]]. Sometimes he'll take on the appearance of his VideoGame/GarrysMod avatar, which is his previous avatar but more stylized. Occasionally, he'll don a superhero costume that looks similar to Vanoss's costume, but without the backpack and with a Raccoon head, calling himself [[UnfortunateNames Batcoon]]. He thought the name was a good idea at the time. |
| 311 | * As someone who has played GTA 5 quite a bit alongside his friends, he's experienced with heists and robberies. If his friends are preparing for a heist, you can bet he'll usually be there. That said, he's often a hindrance than help, as his luck tends to get him and his team screwed over, much to their annoyance. That said, he still gets along with Michael, Franklin and Trevor as well as his friends do, Trevor especially due to basically sharing the same braincells (Read; being AxCrazy wackjobs). Just remember to not be surprised if you see a man in a hockey mask get run over by a car outta nowhere while trying to rob a bank. |
| 312 | * Speaking of Batcoon, him jokingly proclaiming that Eric Cartman stole his The Coon idea from him did not sit well with Cartman, who immediately started plotting a way to kill Delirious using a Teddy Bear filled with dynamite coated in dog food to attract some feral wolves he let loose. After getting killed by the plan going without a hitch, he has since made an effort to avoid the kid at all costs. It really says something about Cartman when someone who's otherwise crazy enough to hang with Vanoss doesn't want anything to do with Eric, knowing full well what the kid's capable of. |
| 313 | * Naturally, [[CompanionCube his obsession with Teddy Bears]], something he's fond of joking about, has found him interacting with quite a few gods that fill that criteria: |
| 314 | ** Being the kind of person to get hurt a lot, he finds SCP-2295 to be immensely useful, thanks to the bear being a ridiculously competent doctor, as well as, well, an adorable little teddy bear. He thought that fellow bear SCP-1048 would be the same, and at first it seemed like the case. That is, until he was promptly attacked by one of its creations, barley escaping the two of them, though not before kicking the killer bear out a window. Now, how he keeps running into the two after they escape containment every time, that's anyones guess. |
| 315 | ** Another, slightly more friendly KillerTeddyBear he's befriended was Naughty Bear, who, instead of being off-put by Naughty's brutality, was more impressed than anything, having played much more brutal games than his. Whenever he's available, Delirious will be more than happy to aid Naughty in his rampages, which naturally includes the residents of Perfection Island, who he'd usually be adverse to killing [[AssholeVictim if it weren't for the fact that they're all assholes]]. |
| 316 | ** If there's any Teddy that he hates, it's Lotso, the former tyrannical ruler of Sunnyside Daycare, due to Delirious declaring him the opposite of everything a Teddy Bear should be. Lotso, for the most part, has taken precautions to avoid him, as a simple plush bear having a showdown with an AxCrazy loon with a RPG and no self preservation skills tends to not end well for the latter. Still, if there's one good thing Delirious can say about him, it's that [[LoveToHate he's a damn good antagonist]]. |
| 317 | * Despite both of them opposing Lotso as much as each other, the Toy Story Toys are rather conflicted on him. On the one hand, he's genuinely friendly towards them, claiming that he "Loves their movies", and is perfectly willing to help them out if they need any. On the ''other'' hand, Delirious, alongside his friends, have made pretty crass jokes about the gang in the past, with Delirious himself formerly using Buzz Lightyear himself as his GMOD avatar, which naturally would make the toys weary of them even if he claimed [[AffectionateParody it was all in good clean fun]]. Still, one thing they can agree on about him is that he is useful for getting rid of some of their more dangerous enemies, Lotso included. |
| 318 | * Having played plenty of their games on his channel, Delirious and his best friend, Cartoonz, can often be seen onlooking a fight between any Mortal Combat deity. The thing is, they usually appear whenever just about ''any'' fight between them breaks out, often giving out commentary like it's a sport. As a result, the kombatants are often annoyed by the two's presence. An especially bad incident occurred during Raiden fighting Shao Kahn, as Kahn eventually got fed up with the duo and started chasing them around with the intent of killing them. And no, they still haven't learned their lesson, though at least they're a bit more quiet during the fights. |
| 319 | * Having also played his games, Delirious was happy to find out Henry Stickmin was also here, and offered to aid him in his next heist, whenever that would be. Henry is a bit hesitant to agree, having heard of his luck combined with Henry's own would probably not make a great combination, but he still appreciates the enthusiasm Delirious showed. He's currently considering having him in as a distraction, seeing how Delirious was good at that with his general demeanor. |
| 320 | * Since his friends constantly joke that he's a SerialKiller, it was only a matter of time before Delirious ran into famous slasher Jason Voorhees, thanks to a bet he made that he and the gang couldn't spend the night in Camp Crystal Lake. As one could predict, the following events sounded a lot like a trashy slasher film, at least until Delirious revealed his trump card: An M1 Abrams tank he stole from the armory. [[LudicrousGibs Cue the flying gibs]]. Jason still hasn't forgotten about that incident. |
| 321 | * One time, Delirious ran into the notorious gambler Daniel D'Arby, notorious for using human souls as a bet for his card games. Agreeing to his game, Delirious offered to play Uno, claiming he was "The Uno Champion of the World", something that an amused D'Arby agreed to. Long story short, by the third turn, [[EpicFail Delirious had already amassed about 15 cards]]. Unsurprisingly, Delirious lost, and had to be bailed out by Jotaro taking over the game for him. |

| 340 | * Enemies: '''[[Pantheon/AntiHeroism Travis Touchdown]]''', [[Pantheon/JealousyAndEnvy Syndrome]], Sakura Kasugano, Anyone targeted by her |
| 341 | * A seemingly ordinary and ditzy university student who's good at playing her flute[[note]]Even though it looks more like a recorder[[/note]], there's more to Kimmy Howell than appearance alone. She's a ''big'' fan of Travis Touchdown, claiming to be his number one fan, and in order to prove it she herself has to become an assassin as strong as he is. Winning the National Student Assassin championship, she would then go on to meet the Crownless King in the flesh where Kimmy told Travis in her love letter (that he had to read out loud by the way) that she plans to defeat him and [[IfICantHaveYou keep his head as a trophy]]. Travis ended up knocking her out exclaiming "he can't kill a co-ed", one of the few assassins he spared the life of made more prominent by the fact that she fought Travis after he got over his inability to kill women. |
| 342 | * Travis went about his usual business training with [[Pantheon/WeaponizedTools Shovel Knight]] when the sounds of a flute started playing. Travis was skeptical at first, but the two continued on until they heard a girl calling out for Travis along with a bunch of nicknames, the most common being "Travis the Great". [[ThisIsGonnaSuck Having heard his suspicions being confirmed]], Travis turned around to see Kimmy Howell with her double beam katana activated asking for a rematch, one that involves her fulfilling that promise. Shovel Knight offered to help but Travis refused on the grounds that he's going to school her again, this time with the added experience from being in the Pantheon. Sure enough, he won again and [[YouAreNotReady told her to come back again sometime later]]. |
| 343 | ** Now, he expected her to be out of the Pantheon for a while but unfortunately for him, onlookers decided to nominate the girl for ascension. The '''Goddess of [[ImYourBiggestFan Declaring They're the Biggest Fan]]''' being her title. At the very least, she decided to go train and get stronger in an effort to keep up with him. Not exactly out of his hair, as from time to time she'll challenge him again and again, but at the very least they're infrequent. |
| 344 | ** Until she did meet him again, but clearly the both of them had changed and for better and worse. [[spoiler: While she became a famous diva who puts on shows for fans, she clearly resents Travis after their fight and likely never even looking for a rematch. During the ranked fights against the "Galactic Heroes" Kimmy fought Travis again only this time it ended with her death]]. |
| 345 | * Though a lower ranked assassin than the others from her world and certainly not as experienced like her idol, she did win a championship for students aspiring to be assassins (even if she admits herself there was some luck involved) in addition to holding her own against Travis with her more elegant style of fighting, {{Groin Attack}}s aside. Not to mention she proclaims herself as a quick learner which holds a bit of water as she is one of the few young assassins with the other being Travis' self-nominated Herald Shinobu. And Shinobu grew up to be a very skilled assassin in Asia after Travis' retirement [[TimeSkip in the span of three years]]. It's no surprise that she considers herself a rival to other assassins both from Santa Destroy and here in the Pantheon. |
| 346 | * Setting aside the fact that all beam katanas resemble [[Franchise/StarWars lightsabers]], her choice of weapon gets compared to Darth Maul's. At least, when the beam's colored red, [[InconsistentColoring sometimes it can appear green or blue-ish]]. There are some who think she underwent some training under him but he denies such claims. His only Padawon was his brother, [[UnskilledButStrong Savage Oppress]], but he ended up being killed by Darth Sidious when he realized Maul lived. Many point it's much more of a safety hazard than Maul's own lighsaber considering it doubles as an instrument and it would be much easier to harm oneself if you were to, say, wanting to play it. |
| 347 | * It should be pointed out that, despite never giving up on taking her idol down, she still continues her life as a student outside of her work of cold-blooded murder and attends the Pantheon's Elysium Academy despite, y'know, her rep[[note]]Then again, they just let about anyone in that school as they do in the Pantheon[[/note]]. As long as you stay away from the topic of Travis, especially if you're a girl and including any word that references being a fan of him, you're pretty golden. Not quite as extreme as some of the other {{Yandere}}s here, but it couldn't hurt to be careful. |
| 348 | * Originally was seen wearing glasses but she seems to have [[TheGlassesGottaGo ditched them]] at some point before her confrontation with Travis with no explained reason as to why. [[Pantheon/{{Eyewear}} Acena]] thought that was a shame, and is currently persuading her to wear them again. She really can only be seen wearing them when Acena's around but it's a start, anyways. |
| 349 | * Has some similarities with other fans in the Pantheon. For example, Syndrome back when he was still a fan of Mr. Incredible, and Kimmy aren't all that different. Both are self-proclaimed greatest fans to their idols to which neither really looked at their fans like they wanted to. Difference is, Syndrome got his dreams crushed by his very idol and consequently became a HeroKiller while Kimmy got to duel with her idol and still continues with her dreams with Travis not doing that much to dissuade her. Syndrome thinks it's pretty pathetic she's still in that phase like he was in, as far as he's concerned you can't count on anyone, ''especially'' your heroes. Finding the supervillain annoying and too much like Destroyman, she avoids him and wouldn't be hesitant on offing him when the time comes. |
| 350 | ** Another deity she has similarities to is Sakura Kasugano considering she too was inspired to fight after seeing their respective people in action. Not to mention, there's also the fact they have a crush on their respective heroes and learned how fight as well as they could have by just being determined enough while also being quite the quick learner. While Kimmy would of liked to interact with someone with the same as she has, Sakura would rather not be associated with her for reasons already listed above. She's not that crazy of a fan, and wouldn't dismiss the idea of Kimmy taking on a hit against Ryu. |
| 351 | * With her surprising amount of skill and continuing off of their commentary for Travis, Howard and Kreese sometimes spectate over Kimmy's hits seeing the potential of her participation in both DeathWatch games should it be reestablished. Kreese is a bit bitter when it comes to her and her "wienie-ass hate sabers", given his experiences with the Masters, Thunder and Sun, engraving their initials in his pancreas with weaponry similar to hers. Plus, there was that one time in the Pantheon that he met her and it ended with one swift GroinAttack using her beam katana. If he had to be honest, it wasn't the worst GroinAttack he endured. That honor goes to Jude the Dude with his spurs. He was still unable to jerk off for a couple days, in that his will was lacking in that time frame, it took way longer to heal of course. |
| 352 | * Can also be found in Pantheon/{{Fanbase}}. |
| 353 | * "Yeah, I'm legit! And ''way'' tougher than I look! So, um...don't hold back, 'k? Because one mistake, and you're ''over''. This is for real. Tehehe." |

| 373 | * Ascended to the Pantheon after [[spoiler:exposing the conspiracy of the Chorus Civil War; it was a hoax caused by Malcom Hargrove who manipulated the people of the planet to try and kill each other for profit]]. |
| 374 | ** That was actually one reason. The other reason is due to his pregnancy. Yes, you read that right. He gave birth to a baby. An alien baby, but a baby nonetheless. Though, this has terrified certain gods [[spoiler:such as Sakura Matou and Kotonoha Katsura]] because this pretty much means that Tucker was raped. |
| 375 | ** It should also be noted that Mpregs are often to be the creations of {{Yaoi Fangirl}}s (especially those [[DieForOurShip who hate the female casts]]). Tucker has no comment about that. |
| 376 | * Even if he's proud of his son Junior, he's deeply afraid of the Facehugger, given being forcibly impregnated by an alien is not an experience he wants others to have. |
| 377 | * Has somewhat mixed reactions upon meeting meeting both Church and Epsilon. Sure, he's happy to see them again but he really didn't have much to say. [[spoiler:Not surprising when you consider that they both sacrificed themselves so he and the others could fight another day.]] |
| 378 | * One would think that due to his personality, Tucker is more or less an idiot who gets his ass handed to him on a daily basis. Make that mistake on your peril. Out of everyone of his origin, he's likely to be one of the strongest fighters. Having beaten more competent solders many times over has given him something of a reputation. |
| 379 | * He's mostly seen trying to use his old tricks on some of the girls in the Pantheon. Obviously, it never goes anywhere and it's often followed up by a beating. He stays far from Asuna though, due to her [[InnocentBigot political incorrectness]]. |
| 380 | --->'''Asuna:''' [[WebVideo/SwordArtOnlineAbridged T-Pain? Why you ignorin' me, bro? You got cotton in yer ears]]-[[OhCrap OH GOD]], [[ThatCameOutWrong I-I- I didn't mean it like that!]] |
| 381 | ** Among the deities who beat up Tucker are 34 of Team Pantheon/{{RWBY}} ([[Pantheon/PowerGainsAndLosses Yang]] in particular punched Tucker so hard it reminded him of Tex). The exception is, of course, [[Pantheon/CombatClothing Ruby]] herself, who not only is a minor, but Tucker deeply respects for her leadership skills. |
| 382 | * Given he has fathered many children back in Chorus, is frequently in the house of Commerce hoping to find a way to get the support payments the mothers have requested. |
| 383 | * Had a somewhat awkward run-in with [[Pantheon/CharacterArchetypes Jaune Arc]], [[{{Expy}} who reminded him of himself]] [[CharacterizationMarchesOn from a long time ago]], except the young Huntsman does have a successful romance [[spoiler:even though said girl did die in the mortal realm]]. |
| 384 | * Is ready to stop Felix once and for all when he heard that he (and Locus) were in the Pantheon before him. As for Locus…he doesn't want to talk about it. |
| 385 | ** After hearing that [[Pantheon/OtherWeaponTropes Adam Taurus]] had allied himself with Felix, and seeing what he did to a few other deities, Tucker firmly planted the faunus as an enemy. He's even gone to the trouble of rounding up his allies in the Reds and Blues to stand together against him. |
| 386 | * The Meta already hated Tucker for stabbing him and thus allowing his drowning. Once he saw Tucker [[spoiler:temporarily took his armor]], he was even more enraged and swears revenge. |

| 400 | * Once upon a time, there were a lot of [[SayMyName name-yells]] in the [[VideoGame/TalesSeries Universe of Tales]]. [[RunningGag Loud, but not to the point of quirky...]] Until Veigue came in and ended up cranking that way up with his yells of his girlfriend to the point that it became a memetic trademark of that universe. Crediting that, they ascended Veigue here. |
| 401 | * There hasn't been one hour in the Pantheon that didn't have Veigue yelling '''"CLAAAAAIIIRRREEE!!!!"'''. |
| 402 | ** Well, he did once and someone approached him. Except that [[Series/{{Heroes}} it's not his Claire Bennet]]. He proceeds to sulk and tries to not yell so much again |
| 403 | * Essays his yelling with Yukimura a lot. |
| 404 | ** Nobody yells better than him. Well it helps that his lungs were made from the [[Anime/GaoGaiGar King of Braves']] [[Creator/NobuyukiHiyama voice.]] |
| 405 | *** At one point, he decided to make his yell into his Mystic Arte. Turns out, it was so powerful that it damages even his allies, even on par with Black Bolt's whisper. He ended up cancelling his idea of new Mystic Arte. |
| 406 | ** In spite of that, when he's not riled up, Veigue is [[TheStoic a very taciturn boy]] all around. Just... don't get him riled up. |
| 407 | * In spite of his portfolio, underestimating him can be a severe mistake, they don't call him the [[VideoGame/TalesOfRebirth Rebirth Hero]] for nothing. Veigue is very adept swordsman and his control over ice makes him a foe not to be underestimated. Even [[VideoGame/SoulSeries Siegfried]] noted that he's got huge potential. |
| 408 | * If anything, there is one thing Veigue absolutely cannot stand: FantasticRacism. He's dealt with that kind of shit his whole life and even fought against something of its personification. If he sees someone doing racist stuffs, he'll at best give a "What the hell is wrong with you!?" scolding, or at worst... ass-kicking. This is also why he strikes alliance to those who have been mistreated due to racism, such as [[Anime/CrossAnge Ange]]. |
| 409 | ** And also why he's very relieved with his reunion with his good friend Eugene Gallardo. |

| 437 | * Are you a protagonist? Do you want to make someone smile? Do you feel it? Are you alone? Is there someone you would give your life to protect? Living in a world where the Internet is becoming more and more essential to everyday life, Haru, Eri, Astra, Rei and Yuujin were asked those deeply personal questions one day. Whether or not they answered them immediately, they discovered the hidden online world and the quirky creatures that inhabited it, the Appmons, embodiments of digital applications. Each of them bonded with one Appmon, becoming [=AppliDrivers=]. Together they fought the malicious AI Leviathan, who sought to control the human world and had many strategies for doing so, from infecting Appmon with the L Virus to founding a mega corporation beloved across the world, the L Corp. Not to mention using its creation Yuujin to string along the other kids, who ultimately had to sacrifice him in order to rid the world of Leviathan's threat once and for all. |
| 438 | * An ascended AI known as The Machine followed the [=AppliDrivers=]' journey with interest, finding the conflict between the BenevolentAI Minerva, who chose them, and the evil Leviathan to be similar to her ongoing war with Samaritan. After Yuujin sacrificed himself to delete Leviathan, the Machine elected to do something about it by backing up Yuujin's data and rebuilding him. Yuujin learned all about what transpired in his home world after Leviathan's defeat, and also about this mysterious new place he was in. Yuujin decided he wanted his friends to be in on this as well (above all, he wanted to be with Haru and Offmon again), and so The Machine sent a signal through his [=AppliDrive=] and opened a portal for them to pass through. Seeing Yuujin's [=AppliDrive=] activate filled the others with hope and they accepted The Machine's invitation, leading to Haru, Eri, Astra, Rei and their Appmons having a touching reunion with Yuujin. At the same time they learned Yuujin could never go back to their world, which was saddening to hear, but then again this situation is more than they dared hope for. The Machine then vouched for their ascension, which was granted. |
| 439 | * Their temple is their HomeBase, a secret basement underneath their good friend Ai Kashiki's family's bookshop. Ai was the only person without an Appmon or link to Leviathan to become aware of the team's activities and she supported them to the best of her ability, and so she also gets the honor of knowing about the Pantheon. Rei's younger brother Hajime is also in the know along with his not-quite-partner Rebootmon. |
| 440 | * They were duly welcomed by all the ascended Tamers, with some surprise at the existence of Appmons, which they'd never heard of before. Many people contested the [=AppliDrivers=]' place among the wielders of Digimon for that reason, but the Tamers consider the differences to be negligible and fully endorse them and challenge any who would make more of an issue of it. After all, they had no trouble accepting the ''Frontier'' team, and their differences from the other teams are even more dramatic than the [=AppliDrivers=]'. Eventually the [=AppliDrivers=] did become more and more accepted as time went by and they proved themselves to be a valuable asset. They also agree in opposing the D-Reaper and Lucemon, which is not difficult considering one is an omnicidal computer program and the other a tyrant obsessed with bending the world to his will. |
| 441 | ** Unlike what you might think, Haru and co. have heard of Digimon before, though as a media franchise instead of actual monsters living in a parallel world. Haru was the only one who encountered an actual Digimon, Agumon, when a corrupted Appmon was messing around with video game characters, with Agumon evolving to [=WarGreymon=] and helping Haru and Gatchmon. Haru ended up mistaking Tai's Agumon for that one, and was a little disappointed when Agumon told him he didn't remember ever meeting him before. He was interested in hearing more about that other Agumon though, so he cheered Haru up by hanging out with him for that day, much to Gatchmon's jealousy. Then Agumon dared to eat Gatchmon's gatch-monaka, which has soured their relationship some, though it's only irascible Gatchmon who acts mean to the dim yet good-natured Agumon. |
| 442 | ** The [=AppliDrivers=] have some other important things that set them apart: they were not TrappedInAnotherWorld; they always remained in the real world and only rarely entered the Net Ocean, from which they could always return with little hassle. Another one is that they were not forced to part ways with their mons at the end of their adventure. Even Offmon stayed with them despite Yuujin not being around anymore. The other Tamers' stories and the heartbreak they went through made the [=AppliDrivers=]' think they had it pretty easy (then again, Yuujin's case was something else and totally unprecedented). They also heard about how Tai and his friends had their bonds to their Digimon broken just because they grew older, which gives Haru and his team some concern that this may happen to them in the future too. Though, at least in the Pantheon, this would be totally negated, and given age wasn't an issue in the DATS Agents' world, they may not have to worry after all, but only time will tell. |
| 443 | * Are on generally friendly terms with Norn Mikihara, considering her to be a well-intentioned AI like Minerva and The Machine who's worth helping. Unusually, they are more loyal to The Machine than the top deity of the Digiverse, what with The Machine helping them ascend and Yuujin depending on it to exist. But their opinion on Norn is at least some steps above Tai and Daisuke's teams'. |
| 444 | * Some non-Digimon-related friends they have made are the Lyoko Warriors, a sextet of kid heroes who entered the Internet to defeat an evil AI called XANA, which is much like the [=AppliDrivers=]' story. They sometimes go on missions together, and once it happened that the [=AppliDrivers=] went with the Lyoko Warriors to the Digital Sea, and Astra, thinking it was just like the Net Ocean, tried to dive in, only to get tackled by Odd. The Net Ocean the [=AppliDrivers=] are used to may be safe to swim in, but the Digital Sea is very much not and would delete them, much to their horror. |
| 445 | * They are as opposed to the GUAM as the other Tamers, possibly with even more distaste for their ideal of machine supremacy; Leviathan would have felt right at home with them, and they'd have welcomed the AI. The team obviously oppose any evil AI, especially those who have a bone to pick with humanity. Samaritan goes without saying since it's The Machine's archnemesis; more on it later. The Sybil System, while not out to destroy humanity, is also pretty bad in their eyes, since maximizing humanity's happiness at the cost of controlling their every move was also Leviathan's logic in wanting to turn all of humanity into data. |
| 446 | * Haru was a shy and passive boy who enjoyed reading all sorts of books. He lived vicariously through the heroes in fantasy and adventure stories and admired his best friend Yuujin for seemingly having all the qualities a hero should have, which Haru lamented he himself did not. That started to change after he met Gatchmon, the search engine Appmon, with the two becoming partners and fighting to stop rampaging Appmons. His adventures helped him gain confidence and revealed to him that there was more of a protagonist in him than he had assumed (he was pretty much responsible for gathering the other [=AppliDrivers=] and turning them into a proper team). |
| 447 | ** While learning about the other types of mons that existed in the Pantheon, the team met the Yo-kai, as well as the wielder of the Yo-kai Watch, Nate Adams, in due time. Nate tends to be dismissed as average in every way and strives to do extraordinary things to counter that, so he understands Haru's feelings on wanting to be more like a protagonist. Haru has also gotten comments about how average he is next to IdolSinger Eri and Apptube celebrity Astra, much to his chagrin. Haru and Nate have become good friends, but the same can't be said of Gatchmon and Whisper, who have a rather fierce rivalry regarding who's more knowledgeable (as Gatchmon is quite proud of his searching abilities). |
| 448 | * Eri was often home alone due to her mother working long hours to provide for both of them. Despite that, Eri did not resent her mother at all and more than anything wanted to see her smile more. She enjoyed seeing idols on TV and was inspired when she watched a group called Appliyama 470 perform, deciding to become a member and aim for the top to bring smiles not only to her mother but the whole world. It was then that she became an [=AppliDriver=] and partners with Dokamon, the action game Appmon. Eri's character as an Appliyama member is likewise based on action games, which is why she's always "threatening" to give people explosive punches. |
| 449 | ** Made friends out of the fellow idol deities that make up μ's and 765 Pro. Eri considers that observing them and learning from their experiences will help her ascend to even greater heights of idoldom beyond becoming the top idol of Appliyama 470. The two groups are glad to be of help, often inviting her to collaborate on performances. Though they also claim they won't lose to her, giving an edge of rivalry to their otherwise friendly relationship. |
| 450 | * Astra, the StageName and nickname of Torajirou Asuka, is the youngest member of the team and the scion of an old and respected family with a famous tea ceremony tradition. Astra has always taken his duty seriously and fully intends to continue the family tradition, however his heart is in Apptube videos. He did not think the two could be reconciled and was ready to give up on his dream, but meeting Musimon, the music Appmon, changed his mind. His videos generally consist of amusing challenges like "watch me swim in a pool of slime". He is now quite popular, with 3.5 million subscribers. His catchphrase "Do I feel it?" is appropriate for every situation. |
| 451 | ** As someone who passionately runs a successful video channel, Astra made a lot of acquaintances in that area. The most prominent are the teens behind ''iCarly'', being around Astra's age and yet running a pretty popular web show in their own right. Let's just say that Astra "totally felt them", and the two shows often have one or the other do guest appearances. The same goes for many of the Youtubers present in the Pantheon, to a lesser extent (there's a certain tendency among those to perceive Astra as the annoying kid brother). |
| 452 | ** Was once taken to a Pantheonic music event by Eri (it bears mentioning that these two are pretty close due to their dreams of stardom) and that was where Astra first met a musician about their age, Miguel Rivera. Astra decided he totally felt his beat and wanted to feature him in a video sometime. As they properly met and talked, they came to realize they have identical backgrounds of family expectations clashing with their dreams, with them valuing family more (difference being Astra always favored family while Miguel had to realize it) but still being allowed to follow their dreams in the end. After this heart-to-heart, Miguel has gone on to appear in some of Astra's videos where he either participates in his challenges or they do collaboration songs with Astra mixing his rap with Miguel's music. |
| 453 | * Rei is a skilled hacker living with his little brother Hajime; their parents are dead. Leviathan noticed something Rei did not, which was that Hajime possessed unparalleled intelligence and so kidnapped him to further its plans. Rei spent days and nights without rest trying to hack into Leviathan and take back his brother, and one of those days he met Hackmon, the hacking Appmon. Rei initially distrusted Hackmon and rejected his help, only to come around when he was nearly killed by another Appmon. He also initially refused to team up with Haru and the others, though he occasionally had to to make any progress on his quest. Ultimately it was through the help of Haru and co. that he managed to get Hajime back at all, so he did defrost in regards to them. |
| 454 | ** There are quite a few hackers in the Pantheon for him to consort with, but the ones he gets along with best seem to be ones that are rather dour in personality like him, such as Lisbeth Salander and Elliot Alderson. Especially Elliot, as he fought against the powerful E Corp much like Rei constantly targeted L Corp. Meanwhile, Rei doesn't have much patience for the manic Radical Ed, but sees something of his younger self (before Hajime was kidnapped) in David Lightman, whom he mentors at times. |
| 455 | * Yuujin is Haru's best friend from childhood. The two always supported each other through their low points, so they value each other a lot. Many have commented on the oddity of their friendship, due to Yuujin being popular and the star player of the school soccer team, whereas Haru is/was nerdy and shy. When Haru first became an [=AppliDriver=], Yuujin was not aware of it at all but noticed Haru becoming a bit more distant and worried about him. Yuujin's determination to protect Haru got him his own [=AppliDrive=] and the offline game Appmon, Offmon. Unfortunately, there came the terrible truth about Yuujin: he was not human at all, but a robot sent by Leviathan to monitor Haru since birth (as Haru is the grandson of Den'emon Shinkai, the scientist who accidentaly created Leviathan and tried to destroy it). With that said, Yuujin's feelings for Haru were not false, even if Leviathan managed to override them. That was why Yuujin accepted to sacrifice himself for the future of humanity. |
| 456 | ** His (formerly) hidden robotic identity attracted the attention of [[Pantheon/NarrativeGenresNToZ Yuki Nagato of the SOS Brigade]], making sure whether or not he's backup sent by the Data Overmind (this was before the rest of the team ascended). Yuujin was rather confused, but as Yuki Nagato explained she was a robot as well and her mission, Yuujin felt oddly relieved to meet someone like himself. Yuki realized this and told him she wouldn't mind visiting him once in a while, which Yuujin accepted. |
| 457 | ** Currently going through some angst regarding his robotic nature that not even Haru can quite abate. He wishes he were a real human and that he could have led a normal life, and it's a sore point for him that he relies on The Machine to live, even if The Machine is far better than Leviathan. One of his concerns is that even if he is protected by powerful firewalls, it's still possible for an evil AI to get past them and take him over, endangering his friends. And as it happens, The Machine's archnemesis Samaritan is well aware of Yuujin and interested in using him against the good AI. Of course, all the [=AppliDrivers=] are against Samaritan, not just for Yuujin or The Machine's sake, but because its goals resemble Leviathan's closely. |
| 458 | ** Alcor heard of the [=AppliDrivers=]' story and thought Yuujin was remarkably like Miyako Hotsuin, an artificial creation who had assumed herself to be human, and who Alco feels a great deal for. Both were also involved in a SadisticChoice that put their lives and the whole world's in the balance. As Yuujin accepted sacrificing himself for the world, Alcor has a great deal of sympathy for him. |

| 481 | '''Sonic:''' "Said the same guy whose series was killed when he went 3D." |
| 482 | ** While the potshots were light at first, it turned into a fight on who had the worse 3D game, ''Bubsy 3D'' or ''Sonic'06''. To settle this, the house of Pantheon/{{Gaming}} hired [[Pantheon/GamingStyles The Angry Video Game Nerd]], [=JonTron=] and [=SomecallmeJohnny=] to decide on who had the crappier game. The AVGN claimed both games were equally shit, [=JonTron=] said that ''Sonic'06'' was a little better and Johnny felt the same. Bubsy claimed bias on the latter two critics, knowing [=JonTron=] had more experience with Sonic's game when [[WebVideo/GameGrumps he played it with Egoraptor]] and [=SomecallmeJohnny=] is a huge fan of Sonic's games. |
| 483 | ** Mighty opposes Bubsy for not only being an rival of his friend, Sonic, but also for being careless to his pet armadillo, Arnold. As mentioned below, he prefers to forget that moment. |
| 484 | * While Bubsy will usually defend his games from the critics, [[EveryoneHasStandards even he'll admit]] the time he went 3D and his [[WesternAnimation/{{Bubsy}} animated outing]] weren't up to his standards. |
| 485 | * Bubsy finally found a friend in the form of Gex. Expect them to make ''a lot'' of random one-liners when they hang out. He's currently learning tips from the wisecracking gecko on how to make a decent 3D Platformer. |
| 486 | * Noticed that Timmy Turner has the very same CatchPhrase as him. [[TemptingFate For obvious]] [[FromBadToWorse reasons]], the court is trying to ban them from saying it. |
| 487 | * I Hate Everything doesn't like him for being nothing but a cheap attempt at cashing in on Sonic's (whom he already hates) popularity. Bubsy, noting IHE's dislike of the hedgehog, shared his thoughts with him on how he always wanted to beat Sonic and hates his fans for how they constantly make fun of him. While it didn't completely redeem Bubsy in IHE's eyes, he does respect someone who also despises Sonic and his fanbase. |
| 488 | * When Johnny Turbo met Bubsy, they seemed to get along at first. They both dislike Sonic and were originally banished to [[Pantheon/{{Continuities}} Retconnian]]. But later, Johnny flipped when he realized his games were released for the Genesis, and not the Turbografx. Bubsy explained that his system was losing popularity by the time his first game came out, but Johnny called him a {{hypocrite}} since Bubsy had an exclusive game for the even more unpopular Atari Jaguar. With that said, Mr. Turbo still partially respects him. |
| 489 | * Surprisingly, Dan doesn't seem to mind the bobcat. He can relate to how Bubsy feels that the world seems to hate him. It helps that Dan's a [[KindHeartedCatLover cat lover]]. |
| 490 | ** Speaking of cat lovers, Sakaki mostly enjoys Bubsy's company. Though, he can be too annoying even by her standards. |
| 491 | * He once tried to compete with Mario by putting ''VideoGame/Bubsy3D'' on the Platform/PlayStation against the plumber's [[VideoGame/SuperMario64 3D debut]] on the Platform/Nintendo64. [[CurbStompBattle Let's just say it didn't go over so well]]. |
| 492 | ** He's currently trying to make amends with Mario to let him in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros''. Mario, knowing the quality of his games and the fact that his recent game hasn't been released yet on the Nintendo Switch, shot down the idea of him as a fighter or even an assist trophy, [[PetTheDog but he's still considering him as a regular trophy]]. |

| 513 | * Charlie the Unicorn, while quite the cynical and gloomy downer, has gone through so much despite his lack of motivation nor determination for excursions, challenges, nor handling adversity, which is actually quite special given how much a majority of the Pantheon's deities usually do, making those like Charlie stick out in comparison. What made Charlie stand out in particular were two particular "friends", known as Pink and Blue, two happy unicorns who were not only more excited and adventurous unicorns, but had a [[BlueAndOrangeMorality twisted sense of humor]], little respect for other life, and a dreadful persistance for annoying Charlie. While it seemed that the "adventures" that Pink and Blue[[note]]Official names are "Lolz" and "Roffle"[[/note]] put Charlie through were a simple set of troublesome events to endure through, culminating in Pink and Blue attempting to kill Charlie just for ''finally getting bored'' of him, but they were just the most recent of all of them. Not only did Pink and Blue made a living hell out of Charlie's life, but it turns out that they've turned Charlie's entire world into a lifeless mess for the last 10,000 years, with Pink and Blue actually being [[MeatPuppet mere corpse vessels]] of two Chaos Spirits unleashed into the world, tormenting and killing almost everyone else out of sheer entertainment, with Charlie being one of the few survivors unlucky enough to get their attention. |
| 514 | * While back then, when Charlie hardly knew what Pink and Blue had in store for him, he was much more optimistic, eager, and open to having a fun time. But now? He barely had patience for any of it, with him becoming much more cynical and very often expressing how unwilling he was to get into more shenanigans, which often end with him getting injured in some way. After surviving Pink and Blue's attempt on his life, he eventually found the ghost of the one responsible for bringing the Chaos Spirits into the world (also named Charlie the Unicorn, but a wizard CEO too), and with him, a method to finally send back the Chaos Spirits back where they came from. While the sealing method was supposed to powered by happy and positive thoughts, our Charlie wasn't going to have the other ghost Charlie or anybody try to talk him down for being so negative where [[GettingSmiliesPaintedOnYourSoul everyone else was smiling or happy.]] Surprisingly, his strong resolve to stay cynical and unhappy about what life has thrown at him did successfully seal the Chaos Spirits away, leaving a desolate world for him to wander. |
| 515 | ** Deities from the Pantheon interested in Charlie's pessimistic attitude and its role in sealing away all-powerful chaotic entities eventually drove them to invite Charlie to the Pantheon. However, being contacted by "gods" to enter a new world full of crazy things, from [[Pantheon/DreadAndValor ring-powered superhumans]] to [[Pantheon/JobsAndProfession eldritch grannies]], was not convincing Charlie at all. As far as Charlie was aware, the Pantheon was just another place for Chaos Spirits like Pink and Blue to continue their "funny quests" with him again. Since there was no refuting that the Pantheon could be a potentially dangerous place for Charlie, who was fine staying in his world looking for survivors, the Pantheon's deities gave him a free tour of the place, clearly "unbiased" (as in, avoiding the House of Slaughter or the House of Otherness), and introducing Charlie to more down-to-earth, rational individuals who didn't try to yank him into their own activities instantly. The tour eventually convinced Charlie to take a stay in the Pantheon, and it helped that there was a trope conveniently suited to his interests, seeing it as a way to not invite unwanted attention. After learning of all of the wacky, out-there, and even extra-dimensional beings in the Pantheon, he's had some regrets with taking the position, though he's getting used to it. |
| 516 | * Despite intentionally avoiding places where deities get into adventures, quests, or conflicts, Charlie will get himself caught in one of them once in a while, regardless of his eagerness to be involved. While he's still rather exhausted from dealing with Pink and Blue all of the time, not having to hear those two voices again feels so relieving in comparison to all of the chaos he gets put into on occasion. Meeting Donkey, for example, was the closest thing to the Pantheon's equivalent of an annoying equine companion for Charlie, and even he's getting used to bearing with his company. However, he's learned of plenty of deities that are willing to put others through endless torture for the hell of it, most notably AM, who was created by humans for war, only for AM to turn against them and cause the end of all but 5 humans to torture for his own twisted desires. As Charlie is disappointed in how other worlds have gotten into situations like that of Charlie's, he's found a pitiable opposer of catastrophic invasions and disasters in Dib Membrane. Although he's hardly accomplished much in stopping others from being too inviting to potentially threatening forces, Charlie appreciates Dib's attempts to be the voice of logic and reason. Sometimes, the two like to rant along about the stuff they've been through, though Dib more often than not gets grossed out by a few of the traumatic experiences Charlie explains in detail. |
| 517 | ** There are unfortunately quite a number of deities that have attempted to unleash something eldritch or incomprehensible into their world only for things to go horribly wrong, something that irks Charlie from time to time. There are people like Mr. Burns that would gladly unleash an abomination onto the world for a good profit, much like the other Charlie the Unicorn from his world, and there's Dr. Eggman who has actually unleashed several abominations that could've thrown the world into devastation, and he still hasn't learned anything from each failure. However, Kefka, who did the same thing with the Warring Triad and succeeded instead doesn't get any respect from Charlie either, given the maniacal atrocities he committed with said power. |
| 518 | * As for said extra-dimensional or eldritch terrors, he's naturally opposed to such entities that mess with victimized worlds for their own benefit or amusement, like Shuma Gorath or the Nibiru Entity. However, for the two closest things the Pantheon has to Charlie's Roffle and Lolz, there's Bill Cipher and Mr. Mxyzptlk. Charlie's grateful that they haven't decided to bother him together at once. It's no secret that he resents the Weirdmageddon that Bill wants to push forward, and also Stanford Pines for enabling Bill to become such a threat in the first place, even if he and his twin Grunkle Stan worked to fix their mistake, not that he'd like to stay near the latter anyway. Mr. Mxyzptlk was also rather difficult to bear at first when he decided to play games with Charlie, and for hours he had to suffer for Mxyzptlk's amusement, until one of Charlie's rants unintentionally made Mxyzptlk say his name backwards on accident just to spite Charlie. Realizing that there was a way out of the madness, he found out about making the fifth-dimensional nuisance go away properly, and is planning to research ways to efficiently repel Mxyzptlk. And yet, the Pantheon had someone even worse in store waiting for Charlie. |
| 519 | --> '''Annoying Orange''': Hey! Hey Charlie! |
| 520 | --> '''Charlie''': YOU! |
| 521 | ** Back when Pink and Blue were having "fun" with Charlie, the Annoying Orange did cross over to join in on the antics, mostly to make Charlie's life even ''more'' of a living hell. And Charlie hasn't forgotten about the giant knife that hit his kidney back then either. And unfortunately, it looked like he would have to deal with this meddlesome fruit once again. Thankfully, it was a little easier to get away from the Annoying Orange in the Pantheon, even if Charlie has to worry once again about a giant descending knife if he bears with that orange for too long. |
| 522 | * While Charlie is pretty much used to just relaxing in his rather mundane but peaceful temple, pretty much tired of getting put into adventures, Charlie sometimes wanders around in the Pantheon whereever a lot of action ''isn't'' going on. While not a big priority for Charlie, he would wander upon Lady Amalthea's temple and meet Amalthea there. Their encounter was pretty calm and nothing out of the ordinary, which was something Charlie wasn't used to for a long time. Amalthea initially deemed Charlie as akin to the other unicorns that came from her world, insensitive to emotions like love and regret, but learning about Charlie's rather terrifying experiences being not only the last truly living unicorn in his world, but living with malicious spirits responsible for killing the rest enabled Amalthea to understand his reclusiveness. As for Charlie, he seems to understand Amalthea's own struggles with being emotionally out-of-tune with the other unicorns she freed, but he honestly lacks any idea of what to say about it aside from simple acknowledgement. |
| 523 | ** Amalthea would introduce Charlie to another unicorn known as Unico, who Charlie initially had conflicted feelings on, due to how much more outgoing the other unicorn was, so initial interactions were rather awkward between the two due to conflicting approaches to being social. Charlie doesn't really care much about Unico's abilities to make others happy either, since for Charlie, he hardly has any good reason to legitimately feel happy. It took a little campfire night for Charlie to understand what the "winds" were to Unico, with many of them being gods that despised Unico for his abilities to the point of wanting to forcefully take him to the "Hill of Oblivion", and only having the West Wind to keep him safe from the rest, though at the cost of having to settle down anywhere with the friends he would make. It was at that point at seeing how bummed Unico's life was from higher beings wanting to mess with the poor unicorn that got Charlie to be a little more open and sociable with Unico, making the two more genuine companions. While Unico's ability to spread happiness hasn't applied to Charlie yet regardless, the former is sure that with enough time, Charlie will get better. |
| 524 | * While his series was known for being prominent on Youtube, Charlie actually originated as a Newgrounds flash, although he would rather not associate with most other Newgrounds deities given how chaotic and violent they can be at times. As a result, there are those like Pico and his buddies who don't bother treating him better than a prop, and even once pranked Charlie into visiting Salad Fingers' domain, given that Salad Fingers and his reclusive lifestyle made Charlie think that he found a decent place to escape others' commotion. Charlie ended up finding the skinny man play around with what appeared to be a carcass of some horse, at least until Charlie muttered something, causing Salad Fingers to turn around towards Charlie, who left being unwilling to know what he would do next. While their attitudes toward adventure differ, Charlie found a more friendlier host in Fancy Pants Man, given a similarly distant relation toward Newgrounds deities, not being fond of the senseless violence they liked to participate in at times. |
| 525 | * Charlie visited another barren area in the middle of nowhere after getting caught up in other deities' antics, and found a small humble house with a meager farm in the middle of it. Given that it looked in good shape, he decided to peek in and saw two elders and a dog. Noticing the unicorn out of their window, the two Bagges decided to let Charlie stay as a guest[[note]]Eustace was mostly interested in extra mule work from Charlie[[/note]] with their pet dog, Courage. While they all managed to hang around with each other quite well, with even Charlie not minding Eustace's crankiness, the house would be haunted by strange visitors and other creepy guests, some more malicious than others. However, both Courage and Charlie managed to cooperate well for the sake of keeping those intruders at bay. Despite Charlie having to leave eventually, since Charlie was tired of dealing with more and more mishaps, he still finds Courage to be a nice companion for dealing with others' problems. |
| 526 | --> '''Eustace''': Stupid talking horse. |
| 527 | * To look for more places more apt to his interests of a calm life free of anything crazy ruining his day, he visited the Dursleys, learning of their obsession with normalcy and seeing it as them being somewhat like-minded at the very least. He has heard of how rude they can be towards those who even express a little bit of weirdness, but Charlie was sure they could get along just fine. The Dursleys themselves, on the other hand, did not take a visit from a talking unicorn in front of their temple that well. Despite Charlie's attempts at diplomacy, the unicorn would be shooed away, now understanding their rather close-minded views on what's "normal". Some days later, he visited Yoshikage Kira given that he too was interested in a normal life free of any disruptive commotions. While Kira was weirded out by a talking unicorn at his doorstop, he reluctantly let Charlie in as a guest given that Charlie had no suspicious intentions. Charlie had at one point definitely found out about one of Kira's darker secrets in relation to... hands, but Charlie thought it would be best to not yap about it. Maybe his hands were just models, he thought. Discovering how Kira actually collected his objects of obsession, and then getting in trouble with others for it afterwards, would be the breaking point for Charlie to decide he would be much safer a mile way from the creep. |
| 528 | * Though Charlie isn't explicitly looking for friends, let alone going out of his way to do so, deities find it difficult to get along with Charlie due to his constant cynical and negative attitude. He more often than not ignores others' requests to try and put up a smile or to improve his attitude, given that he feels more than justified for being so negative, given all of the things that he's been forced to experience, and the fact that his negative feelings fixed things in his world back then gives justification as well. For similar reasons, he's gotten along with Eeyore the most out of the members of the Hundred-Acre Wood, the rest of which attempted to lighten his mood at little to no avail. Charlie eventually learned about the Emotions that run the emotional experiences in one's brains, and it was no surprise that he resonated with Sadness the most. The other emotions wonder how out-of-tune Charlie's general emotions are, and from a quick monitor of his brain, his "Joy" appeared to be... ''comatose'', which was agreed on as the most accurate way to describe the unusual state it was in, although they're optimistic that things will get better for Charlie. |
| 529 | ** The Mane Cast, who generally try to bring the best out of everyone and keep their friends happy, had a more complicated visit with Charlie. Despite their efforts, they couldn't really get too far, even with attempts at therapy for Charlie, with Charlie just not having the proper motivation to start being more positive, not that he was upset at them for trying to help him. Although the ponies were horrified at what Charlie has went through, they were still hopeful that they could get through to Charlie. What they didn't expect was Discord attempting to help make Charlie happy, and he happened to be one of the '''worst''' candidates for cheering Charlie up. While unintentional, he attempted to put Charlie through a self-made "Super Fun Hour", which ended up being like what Roffle and Lolz dragged him through routinely, though thankfully without any major injuries. Discord himself reminding Charlie of the Chaos Spirits already, his efforts only backfired as Charlie decided it would best to keep away from him and the rest of the Equestrians, with relations between Charlie and the rest souring in general. Maud Pie ended up being an exception since her tolerance of Charlie's attitude and [[TheStoic her own calmness]] made friendship much easier. Charlie himself actually found her interest in rocks somewhat entertaining despite not completely understanding it as well. And while he's never stated such out of respect, the one Equestrian he gets along with is rather telling of which of the Mane Six he likes the least, making Charlie surprised that she and Maud are related. |
| 530 | * Charlie visited the Houyhnhnms after gaining interest in their peaceful lifestyle. Having been the victim of many chaotic quests and endangering experiences, he thought the Houyhnhnms would be semi-decent company at the very least. He frankly finds their removal of Yahoos through castration as disgusting, but Charlie had wondered if the Houyhnhnms were more bearable without any humans to show disdain towards. As much as Charlie thought that their hatred towards humans was pretty much way too far, he did agree with their viewpoints on how despicable warfare and other forms of brutality were, and he didn't mind how the Houyhnhnms despised things like competitions or contests. In fact, he actually liked that about them since it meant less of those bothering him too. While the Houyhnhnms looked at Charlie a little funny due to his horn, they found Charlie to be a decent visitor since he never caused any unnecessary racket and having a peaceful and rational disposition. Charlie not being the kind of unicorn to use magic very often if at all helped a lot too. Of all the things that made the horses' lifestyle overbearing toward Charlie, it was how they don't even accept the expression of anything even mildly disagreeable or capable of any vocal conflict, which made the few times of Charlie speaking out towards the Houyhnhnms rather unpleasant, and Charlie only tried small talk! Eventually, Charlie left by saying he had to leave since he might be a magnet of unpleasantly unspeakable events, and "self-exiled" himself far, far away from the Houyhnhnms' island. |
| 531 | ** Leaving the island ended up being rough for Charlie with the waves flipping over the vessel Charlie used to reach the island in the first place, but Charlie didn't succumb to drowning. Instead he found himself under the sea once again, and greeted by members of Bikini Bottom in the process. Spongebob and Patrick attempted to make a welcome party for him, but ended up going overboard in a manner that caused their creations to backfire immensely and sending Charlie straight to Weenie Hut General. Of all the denizens Charlie met, he got along with the similarly exhausted Squidward the most, the latter snarking that he'll get used to Spongebob. As Charlie exited the waters, he happened to find a Liopleurodon swimming along hunting for prey. It reminding him of the one that he encountered while still put into adventures by Pink and Blue, he decided to approach it out of curiosity. Keeping at a safe distance, he decided to make a simple greeting to it, to which it responded by trying to lunge toward the unicorn, though Charlie ended up not being close enough to be at bite range, so it decided to ignore Charlie and leave afterwards. Instead of reacting with fear to the attempted attack, Charlie seemed surprised in an oddly relieved kind of manner. |
| 532 | --> '''Charlie''': You know, that could've been worse. For all I know it could've attempted to date me. |
| 533 | * Due to warnings from other unicorns in the Pantheon, Charlie avoided the Pyro due to learning about how much of a bloodthirsty pyromaniac they were. However, coming across some stranded goggles from an area that the Pyro last visited, he decided to wear it, only to go into a shock seeing the colorful hell that he knew for so long, and the moment he saw two Balloonicorns float towards him, he took off the goggles immediately. He decided that Charlie needed to see a doctor, fast. Unfortunately, the doctor he met was none other than the Medic, who invited him into his domain, and the Medic left Charlie as he went to work on another patient. Charlie looked around only to find a fridge full of animal organs, and immediately he realized that his kidney was likely next, and ran miles and miles away before the Medic could find him again. To this day, Charlie has gained a slight paranoia of doctors visiting. |

| 548 | * A crime has taken place and the suspect has done everything they can to ensure that they can get away with it, but eventually they will be caught. At first glance, Lieutenant Columbo doesn’t appear and act like he’d be the detective for the case, but beneath that clownish exterior is a keen mind that helps him get the job done. Like many investigators, Columbo talks to the suspect about what’s going on, but there are always some inconsistencies to what the suspect is saying and Columbo is noticing around them, leading him to question what actually happened and the suspect getting more frustrated with him. No matter what the suspect tries to do to throw Columbo off, he’ll find a way around those tricks and get that crook arrested. |
| 549 | * There was a murder case that had many stumped in the Pantheon thanks to the crook having meticulously ensured that there was no evidence that could be traced back to them. Lieutenant Columbo, who decided to visit the Pantheon on vacation, ended up getting involved with the case and decided to look around for anything that could be of help to get the crook captured. There were a few things that didn’t add up for him after looking around and talking to the crook about what happened, so Columbo decided to spend his vacation trying to piece things together. After a few more conversations, the crook lost their cool and ended up admitting to their crimes, getting them arrested. As for Columbo, he did find the Pantheon to be interesting and that it wouldn’t be the only time he would visit the place, though it soon became apparent such visits would no longer be a vacation for him and it ended up being part of his investigative work. |
| 550 | * Columbo learned that there were plenty of investigators in the Pantheon and while many have their own line of work that they specialize in whether it’s for an agency or working independently, they mostly work great together when it comes to cases that are unusual than what the individuals in question focus on. It’s no different when it comes to Columbo working with other detectives (especially those who have similarly great analytical skills like he does), and what drew Columbo to those other investigators was that they all had their own problems that they had to confront both during and outside of mystery-solving. Conan Edogawa was one of the more unusual detectives since he was a young adult known as Shinichi Kudo who got aged down into a kid and has been solving a lot of mysteries amidst a bigger one going on behind the scenes related to his predicament. Columbo ended up going to a cafe that happened to be called Cafe Columbo, was a bit amused that there was a place named after him, and ended up meeting Conan while visiting the place. Conan mentioned that he was a huge fan of detectives and solving and that while Cafe Columbo wasn’t a consistent hangout for investigators, there were some other places named after well-known detectives that Conan is aware of. Even though the bigger mysteries surrounding Conan (and other detectives) wasn’t something Columbo was going to be able to get to due his busy schedule, Columbo is still content to hang out with other investigators for a friendly chat whenever something significant isn’t going on. |
| 551 | * While Miles Edgeworth is known for being a prosecutor in court, he has done plenty of investigative work outside the courtroom and had the help of some friends in that regard, with one of them being Detective Dick Gumshoe. As he did some investigation one day, he met Columbo and noticed plenty of visual similarities between Gumshoe and the Lieutenant in terms of costume and demeanor. It didn’t take long for Edgeworth to notice that Columbo was very perceptive about how some crimes played out and the motivation for such. Working with Edgeworth has also shown Columbo just how much more complicated some crimes can be and how far some are willing to go in order to get what they want. Edgeworth still found Columbo’s insight to be valuable in finding closure to certain cases and the two have made for a highly effective investigative duo. |
| 552 | * Columbo isn’t the only investigator to rely on acting dumb in order to crack the case. L Lawliet is another detective with plenty of quirks yet is highly capable of solving cases, but one major thing that separates L from Columbo is him seeking a challenge from his cases, especially where the Kira case is concerned. While L does have good things to say about Columbo, the lieutenant is concerned about L’s more unscrupulous habits getting in the way of fully solving a case. As effective as psychological warfare can be in getting someone to break, it can get to a point where both the detective and crook get too obsessed with outwitting the other and to Columbo, that’s just dragging on things to the point of harming others that have nothing to do with what’s going on and not providing closure to the case. It wasn’t enough to damage any goodwill between Columbo and L and the Lieutenant has done his best to keep some of the more troubling behavior from L in check, but in the face of highly skilled criminals, it’s clear that L and Columbo have different methods in seeing their enemies break down. |
| 553 | * Working with a multitude of law enforcing agencies in the Pantheon brought plenty of challenges for Columbo. One of them involved corruption going on across different levels by officers and lawyers who are more interested in their own gains rather than upholding the law. Even if corruption doesn’t come from within thanks to a more clearly defined effort in separating the good law enforcers from the bad, there was another problem in how certain criminals are willing to collaborate with corrupt figures to ensure that their criminal records cannot be obtained on top of having these heinous officers get in the way of anyone trying to get said criminals punished. For Columbo, he’ll quickly pick up if something is wrong with how the law is carried out under such corrupt officials and he’s already gotten their ire for exposing their cover-ups. |
| 554 | * Columbo has a pet dog that sometimes accompanies him on his investigations. He ended up taking a liking towards Droopy for not just being a basset hound like his pet, but also sharing a similar kind of shabby exterior that hides plenty of smarts that can surprise their foes. Even if Droopy does have his moments of getting physical when confronting his enemies unlike Columbo, the dog has done some detective work in his spare time. The lieutenant has let Droopy do some criminal investigation with him, often telling his partners that it’s another dog much like his own that can help in finding criminals. With how dangerous some of these criminals in the Pantheon are, Columbo will need Droopy’s help to get through those tight spots where brainpower won’t be enough. |
| 555 | * Jotaro Kujo got much of his perceptiveness from watching a lot of Columbo as a kid and it’s proven effective in finding flaws in the villains he’s fighting against. As popular as Columbo is among others thanks to how he catches crooks, the lieutenant was surprised to learn that his work was a direct and positive influence on someone. Jotaro was just as surprised to learn that the lieutenant he used to watch on TV was a real person in the Pantheon following a chance meeting with him. It was a brief meeting since Jotaro was busy with other matters, but he gave Columbo his thanks for teaching him what he needed to know about finding what makes a bad guy fall apart. Columbo appreciated the sentiment and from a glance, could tell that Jotaro was a really interesting fellow in more ways than one. |
| 556 | * With a greater selection of investigators came an equally vast array of crimes that not only included stealing, but heinous actions that went beyond murder. While some crooks were incompetent enough that making an arrest was easy and didn’t require psychological trickery, there were plenty of criminals who were capable enough to the point of being a match for Columbo’s wits. Jack the Ripper and Professor Moriarity were among those who were able to keep their tracks well hidden and while that was difficult enough for Columbo, it was the intellectual murderers that posed a greater challenge for him. Even though Hannibal Lecter has spent time in a prison cell talking to officers who are trying to find a murderer that’s possibly worse than him, it was his dark mindset that’s capable of corrupting those who try to talk to him. The speeches given out by the intellectual Hannibal for breaking others was like a dark contrast to how Columbo used his easygoing facade to break criminals and while Hannibal finds Columbo to be frustrating, the lieutenant is disturbed at what Hannibal will do to accomplish something. |
| 557 | * There were many criminals who behaved differently, but it was those who put up a front of being strange only to hide plenty of cunning like Columbo that the lieutenant saw as dangerous solely because of how effective those baddies are at using it. A few dangerous enemies that he learned from others included Yoshikage Kira, a serial killer who wanted to live an ordinary life and had some dangerously explosive tools at his disposal to get rid of anyone in his way, and Sota Sarushiro, who was driven by revenge and willing to play others like a fool to achieve his goals. Their unassuming exteriors were all just a mask for something more sinister and greatly tested Columbo’s investigative skills with the lieutenant merely being able to lead stronger figures to Kira and Columbo finding Sota’s methods to be a dark reflection of how the lieutenant went after criminals. Even a few figures who weren’t as actively threatening such as Cecil Turtle had a cunning side to them that was similar to Columbo’s schtick and added to the battle of wits the lieutenant would find himself in. |

| 578 | * Hank Schrader is a police officer working for the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) in Alberquerque, New Mexico, and is the brother-in-law of Chemistry teacher Walter White. At first, Hank led a relatively normal life as a cop, being well-respected by those who knew him closely and being idolized by his nephew, Walter Jr. However, his life would take a downward spiral once he decided to look into the case of an upcoming methamphetamine manufacturer known only as "Heisenberg". This incidentally led him into killing Tuco Salamanca, a notorious member of a Mexican drug cartel and of the feared Salamanca family. Things only got worse as Hank developed insecurity issues, especially after seeing his unit become victims to an explosion set up by the cartel and barely surviving a life-and-death situation against Marco and Leonel Salamanca. In time, Hank had to deal with another drug kingpin, Gustavo Fring, who orders to have him killed after Heisenberg failed on his promise of eliminating him. Sometime after Gus's demise and Heisenberg becoming the dominant drug kingpin, Hank realized, to his horror and discomfort that Heisenberg really was Walter White, which created a massive family complication and Hank to lose any and all respect for his brother-in-law. Working with Walt's former meth accomplice, Jesse Pinkman, Hank was able to trick Walt into revealing a large extent of his crimes, enabling Hank to arrest him. Unfortunately, Walt had called in a group of Neo-Nazis as backup, forcing Hank and his closest police partner, Seven Gomez into a gunfight. Gomez is killed and Hank is injured, unable to fend for himself. Despite Walt's pleas to have him spared, Hank objects, stating that the Neo-Nazis would kill him anyway and simply accepts his fate before dying from a headshot, courtesy of the Neo-Nazi leader, Jack Welker. It would take a while before Walt avenged his brother-in-law's murder by personally killing Jack himself. |
| 579 | * Hank's death was an immense game-changer; it solidified the downfall of Heisenberg and as soon as Hank's death became common knowledge, as well as Heisenberg's real identity, Walt was exiled from his family, who wanted nothing to do with the money that he earned in the Meth business. However, Hank would be given a second chance, albeit in a new realm. Hank's first days in the Pantheon were him resting in some sort of hospital bed and asking where he was, which was confirmed to be the House of Pantheon/HealthAndDiseases, where he was recovering after his death. After getting better, Hank decided to head out to the House of Pantheon/LawAndJustice to learn of the circumstances of what had happened to his family after he died. He was not amused to learn that Walt was also in the Pantheon nor the fact that he avenged his death by killing Jack and the Neo-Nazis. That said, the fact that he and Walt were in the Pantheon did present Hank with another opportunity to do what he failed to do in his mortal life; arrest Walt and trial him for the crimes he committed as Heisenberg, regardless if he had since retired. Though it may be harder than before, given the surreal and fantastical nature of the Pantheon. |
| 580 | * Hank is a debatable figure. He is a cop, so normally that would mean he's someone who tries to do the right thing. That said, his steadfast determination in wanting to catch Heisenberg left Hank increasingly rattled and disregarding the DEA's rules and regulations, which did end up putting him at odds against them. Not to mention how his mindset towards the case became so consuming that he was going against police protocol. The Pantheon has had to tell Hank about the numerous list of criminals that are way past their control and he simply took their words into account. The fact that Walt may have connections with said criminals when it comes to meth manufacturing may be a possibility, which unfortunately furthers Hank's mindset in wanting to bring his brother-in-law to justice. Some are willing to help him, though they do warn the DEA Agent to sometimes slow down and recover. |
| 581 | ** While he doesn't express it as much, Hank is worn out and exhausted by his efforts in trying to bring down Walt. After all, it did lead to his confrontation with the Salamancas and Gus Fring, which marked the first time he had to kill. Furthermore, the Salamanca's involvement played a role in Hank's PTSD, which has caused him to be incredibly dour and insecure about his situation as well as that of his wife, Marie's and his extended relatives including Skyler, Flynn[[note]]He ''refuses'' to be called Walter Jr.[[/note]], and Holly. On a sadder note, Hank used to be a rather upbeat and outspoken man, albeit [[PoliticallyIncorrectHero not being well-spoken towards those outside his ethnicity]], but that has since been eroded over time due to the stress he undertook in wanting to solve the Heisenberg case. |
| 582 | * Due to his obsessive nature in the case against Heisenberg, Hank has proven himself a difficult deity to work with, as his stubborn and one-track-minded mindset was considered a detriment in the working field. That said, he is actually a competent police officer by the virtue of being able to recognize and identify crime evidence and scenes fluently, which is arguably the main reason why he's given a series of drug-related crimes to work on in the Pantheon. He's given a surveillance sector for the House of Pantheon/CrimeAndTransgressions, with which Hank has decent authority under. He's been told not to put too much emphasis on Heisenberg as there are a lot of drug-related criminals that need to be dealt with as well. For once, Hank has agreed, if mainly to make sure he doesn't lose his credibility as a DEA Agent and also so that he can be paid well enough to provide for his family. |
| 583 | * As bad as Walt was as Heisenberg, Hank quickly realized that there were many other drug-related beings who were far worse than his brother-in-law was. While Hank does affirm that he hasn't forgiven Walt (and he never will), at least he loved his family and initially entered the meth business [[JustifiedCriminal to assure that his family was financially provided]], [[MotiveDecay until that soon eroded away and Walt did it for his own ego and supremacy]] [[NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist whilst lying to his family about still doing it for their betterment]]. It's motivated Hank enough to stop focusing too much on Walt and to make plans about dealing with newer threats that could be more troublesome than he'd expect. |
| 584 | ** Diavolo is a notable case; he's more than willing to sell the drugs his mafia organization manufactures to anyone and anybody, even children, and is wholly unrepentant about it. Even more, he desires seclusiveness above all and will coldly and immediately kill anyone who either even has a glimpse or slight knowledge of his true identity or are even biologically related, [[OffingTheOffspring his daughter included]]. Unfortunately for Diavolo, he's now infamously known in the Pantheon, which has allowed Hank to carry out investigative work on him. Learning about this, a splintered mafia group led by Bruno Bucciarati decided that they will try helping Hank in exchange for giving him financial benefits for Marie and his extended family. Though the two have a hard time working together as Hank is not fully confident about trusting those who possess supernatural powers that can easily kill him, but so far, he's been a useful ally to Bucciarati's Gang for being able to put a further hindrance to Diavolo's Pantheonic criminal schemes. |
| 585 | * It may not look at it, but it turns out that Hank is rather similar to Soichiro Yagami, even if the circumstances of their criminal investigations are different. Both of them were police officers who took it upon themselves to hunt down and capture a notorious criminal, Hank's case was an upcoming drug kingpin named Heisenberg, while Soichiro's focus was on an enigmatic and elusive SerialKiller called "Kira". Furthering the similarity was when their true identities happened to be someone whom Hank and Soichiro had familial ties with, in the case of the latter, his son Light. And of course, both of them died pursuing the case to the very end, though Hank remained bitter towards Walt while Soichiro (usually) never figured that Light was the killer he had been looking for as he passed. Hank and Soichiro have since kept in contact with one another and are open to working with a few cases. Though Hank does remind Soichiro of a fellow Task Force member, Toura Matsuda, mainly due to them being impulsive and hotheaded, though both are surprisingly more competent in their work field than you'd expect. That said, Hank does stay wary of Light Yagami, especially after learning about the Death Note. Though Hank does know that, even if he had any possession of it, Walt would never use the Death Note to kill his family, though it doesn't change Hank's hostility towards his brother-in-law. |
| 586 | * While not the most popular cop in the Pantheon (though he is pitied to a big extent, given the emotional and psychological circumstances he went through in his mortal life), Hank does get along with some police officers. Among these are Dirty Harry, who is well-known for breaking police protocols if it means getting the job done and if they are compromising his objectives too much. Harry doesn't personally fault Hank for his more unsavory actions, though he did chide him for not caring about Jesse being killed when using him as bait, something which Hank didn't respond to and simply nodded his head. It does seem as if his time in the Pantheon has started to humble Hank to an extent, even if one influence comes from an officer who is just as prone to doing his own thing than listening to his workforce. |
| 587 | ** Hank was initially skeptical about Detective Conan; then again, he wasn't really familiar with him and obviously questioned why a kid would be tackling police cases that are centered on high-level crimes like drug trafficking and murder. Turns out, Conan was actually a skilled and capable detective in his own right, having been able to keep track of [[Pantheon/KillersAndAssassins The Black Organization]] who are notorious for keeping themselves secretive via ordering the assassination of any outside presence who so much as has a glimpse of their existence. It was enough for Hank to be endeared by Conan and sometimes hangs out with him, making lame jokes and all. That said, he does feel insecure about bringing Conan along into his DEA work, though the latter insists that he can help out in catching Walt. |
| 588 | ** Norman Jayden, an investigative FBI Agent, was also a very awkward situation at first, which was because of the fact that he had to use a type of drug known as Tryptocaine to ease and comfort himself after having to use an "Added Reality Interface" Glasses (ARI), which he does to digitize a forensic analysis of the crimes that he investigates. Hank felt worrisome that a respectable FBI Agent would be addicted to a drug because he experiences withdrawal either by using the ARI for too long or if he doesn't use his Trypocaine for too long either. Regardless, the two work well together, despite Hank's rash nature. Despite Hank's own behavioral problems, Norman doesn't hold him in contempt, unlike another fellow police officer he worked with, Carter Burke, mainly because Hank does have someone to look after and he's been through enough traumatizing events as it is. |
| 589 | ** Despite her own mixed reception, Hank doesn't have anything against Carmelita Fox and is open to working with her in a few cases every now and then. Carmelita appreciated the gesture, as not many people tend to be as open or easygoing when it comes to working with her, mainly due to Carmelia's own hotheaded nature in her police work, especially when quarreling with Sly Cooper, something which Hank finds rather amusing and is not above making jokes about it, much to Carmelita's chagrin. Even so, aside from him breaking the law every now and then, Hank is impersonal towards Sly and sometimes enjoys stories about him robbing a criminal, especially if it's about a drug trafficker. Sly himself thinks Hank is rather overbearing and boisterous for someone in a prestigious rank, but otherwise doesn't mind him and thinks he might be a decent work partner for Carmelita at times. |
| 590 | * The drug industry is obviously not just exclusive to the Cartel, so Hank sometimes has his fair share of dealing with Mafia organizations in the Pantheon that have any sort of interest in them. Initially, he wouldn't get along with Tommy Angelo, but seeing as he bailed out of his Mafia group by becoming a police informant and did not approve of the abusive use and trade of heroin, he and Hank found some common ground and have kept in contact since and the same feeling was sent towards Jimmy, who ended up defecting the Mafia and going on to oppose and dismantle several different trug trades and distributions. Tommy even went ahead with introducing Hank to John Donovan, though that said, Hank doesn't put much consideration in working for John as he doesn't prefer to kill his targets until he really has no choice left. That said, his relationship with Vito Scaletta and Joe Barbaro tend to be rather tense; while they have mutual enemies, Vito and Joe have used and don't mind drugs all that much, so long as it's not a large manufacturer, is forced and abused towards others, and excessively distributed on a large scale. Hank thinks they do need some penalty but otherwise is okay working with them, so long as they can benefit from what they do. |
| 591 | * In the Pantheon, Hank learned that after his own death, Jesse was taken by Jack's Neo-Nazi gang to be kept enslaved so that he could continue manufacturing Meth for them while he suffered from physical, mental, and emotional torture from his captors. Even for being someone who couldn't care less if he died, [[SlaveryIsASpecialKindOfEvil Hank thought that what the gang did to Jesse was excessively brutal]]. As of now, Hank's the only cop in his world who knows that [[Film/ElCamino Jesse decided to depart Alberquerque with a new identity and head off to Alaska to live out a more peaceful life]]. Hank considered confronting Jesse for his crimes but realized that due to how much suffering he went through, partly because if Walt as well, a lot of people came to sympathize with Jesse and that Hank would not be well-received for trying to disrupt a man's hard-earned peace. This was something that Hank had to begrudgingly agree on and let Jesse be independent. The fact that he wanted to leave the Meth industry and his past life behind may also have something to do with it. The only time Hank and Jesse interact with one another is circumstantial and if it includes Walt to some extent, otherwise neither of them are noted to work well together. |
| 592 | * Outside of Meth, Hank also decided to look into the case of a mysterious drug known only as "Banana Fish". Hank was initially skeptical of it, mainly due to the bizarre and inherently funny name... until he realized that Banana Fish was made with the intent of having someone become submissive towards those who distribute the drug and to obey whatever orders they are given. This led Hank to get into contact with Ash Lynx and Eiji Okumura, two teenagers whose lives were entangled with the mystery of the drug. Though the case was solved, Ash sadly died in the aftermath, leaving a heartbroken Eiji to carry on the rest of his life mourning the loss of a close friend that he may have had developed romantic feelings for. In the Pantheon, Ash doesn't trust Hank too much, pertaining to the boy's difficulty in working with others and for thinking Hank is too fixated on wanting to solve cases and forgoing the rules even if it means endangering others. Hank does feel bad for Eiji and is a lot kinder to him than he usually is, often trying to be more comical and jokey than he was in the last days of his mortal life, which Eiji appreciated. |
| 593 | * Despite his tendencies to break away from protocol, if mainly because of his determination to bring down Heisenberg, Hank does care enough about his position in the DEA and those that he works with that he will try to listen and reason with his superiors. As a result, he was stunned to learn of Manny Pardo, a seemingly incompetent RabidCop who moonlighted as the "Miami Mutilator" as he wanted to achieve a level of infamy similar to [[Pantheon/{{Storytelling}} Jacket]]. What caught Hank's attention was hearing that Manny led a one-man raid against a Miami Drug Cartel and killed Tony, the last surviving member of [[Pantheon/MurderAndAssassination The Fans]], after he had surrendered himself to the police. Learning from the story, Hank decided that Manny was a threat to be dealt with, especially considering that he was someone who went against the ethics of being a police officer, though Manny's extremely seclusive nature, to the point of barricading himself in his domain in case a home raid happened, has made things tougher for the two of them. |
| 594 | * It turns out that Hank has some kind of fascination for minerals ever since his incident regarding the Salamanca Twins. On occasions where he takes a break from police duty, Hank will be off searching for some minerals to find and bring home as part of a personal collection for himself. This habit has not gone unnoticed for the Hall of Pantheon/MetalAndMinerals, who find Hank's hobby rather interesting. Fortunately, Hank is a man of the law, so he doesn't pose any animosity when visiting the Hall and collecting minerals along the way. That said, he gets easily annoyed whenever someone, particularly Marie, [[MemeticMutation refers to Hank's collection as "rocks" and Hank has to immediately correct the terminology]]. |
| 595 | * Is also a part of the Hall of Pantheon/MannersOfDeath. |

| 617 | * Frankly, the only thing keeping Horatio from entering the Pantheon were those who found his quips to be annoying. Nevertheless, Gil found the time to bring his old friend from Miami into the Pantheon. Upon gazing at his new domain, he [[GlassesPull took out his glasses]] before getting back to work. |
| 618 | ** It is difficult to understate just how well-known his antics became. He may actually be the most recognizable member of the CSI team just on his quips. Of course, his detractors used this as proof of the decline of the franchise. Still, he has plenty of fans to go around. As of right now, Gil takes care of the paperwork while Caine goes out in active duty. The later has always prefered to get his hands dirty than his predecessor. The two hope to find ways to get more from their world into the Pantheon. |
| 619 | ** While the two never got to meet during their mortal lives, he is by far one of the most beloved partners for Gibbs and Abby. Gibbs is probably the only other CopShow that has gained the same popularity. Gibbs has had constant praise among his constituents while Horatio's fame mainly comes from the internet. The two of them dismissed any debate over who would win in a fight. While Abby sides with Gibbs, she couldn't help but feel enamored by Mr. Caine. |
| 620 | * Loves the fact that there are many cops like Dirty Harry who are willing to do whatever it takes to take down the bad guy... more than most in the House of Justice. Harry in turn is thankful for Caine for letting him bend the rules a bit. This has gotten them in trouble at times from Judge Dredd who would rather not have lawyers get in their case. |
| 621 | * No one is calling him soft with [[GoodIsNotSoft the way he treats perps]], bringing him in good company with Scooby member Angel. While he has his misgivings about his past, Caine hopes that he can stick with his redemption arc. |
| 622 | * To Jake Peralta, Caine represents the type of cop he inspires to be: a no-nonsense kind of guy who is dedicated to his job. He also likes to compete with Caine for who can do the best puns. Holt suggested not to do it so often as to become a tryhard. To Holt, the reason Caine does it so well is because he can do it seamlessly. Jake took the advice to heart in order to be as cool as Caine without looking like a dork. |
| 623 | * Given his cold and withdrawn demeanor, it may surprise a lot of people at how well he does with kids. Some theorize that he had always wanted to have a family... [[CartwrightCurse if only his girlfriends stop dying on him]]. Nevertheless, deities in the subhouse of Children are grateful of him for looking out for them. |
| 624 | ** Was happy to lend his services to Chris Jansen. While the detective's ability to track down child predators is uncanny, he does have trouble with some of the more dangerous folks in the Pantheon. This is where Caine comes in as the enforcer to track down and capture assailants to put them on the hot seat. |
| 625 | * As the series' MO seems to be AlwaysMurder, one can expect him to run into Jack the Ripper multiple times. Caine would want nothing but to send the man on Deaths Row, but the enigma has proven to be an elusive target. |
| 626 | * May well be one of the most famous fictional characters who sports their sunglasses at all times. So much so that he wears them even when such eyewear isn't needed. With that said, he has no intentions of taking that Guzma's position. That hasn't stopped the Team Skull member from trashing his 'inferior shades'. |
| 627 | ** Wesker doesn't see him as any serious threat, but his followers did not take kindly to Caine rivalling their patron in terms of shades. Of course Caine would rather shut down Wesker's labs than to go into blows ever who have the [[CoolShades cooler shades]], a plan that Wesker laughed at as absurd. Not like the man stands a chance against him anyways. |
| 628 | * Caine couldn't get credit with the BigYes as that came from Music/TheWho's song which is his theme. There ''is'' however a deity known for chanting "YES!" Daniel Bryan always have time to meet those known for that chant. |

Their prosecutor was none other than Manfred von Karma, the person Jack initially took the God of Prosecutors title from him. Their lawyer? The legendary Perry Mason. In an intense case, the Court of the Gods sided with Jack, granting the two of them equal status in the Pantheon. |
| 650 | * Is longtime friends with Miles Edgeworth, who has been his apprentice for many years. Edgeworth was instrumental in helping Jack ascend the first time, wrest Manfred of his first title. To his surprise, Miles himself has ascended by the time he arrived a second time. The two now help each other putting perps behind bars. |
| 651 | ** Is not exactly as chummy with Edgeworth's friend Phoenix Wright as the later is a defense attorney. Still, he knows that the two are generally on the same side in delivering justice. |
| 652 | * That doesn't mean there aren't defense attorneys they respect. The two looked into the case of one Atticus Finch and were impressed with his work in the face of racism. |
| 653 | * As within their mortal lives, both rely on an array of [[TheShrink psychologists]] and [[PrivateDetective detectives]] to get the job done. Fraiser is probably the only psychologist he currently trusts, but there are a vast number of detectives he depend on, all with their skills and drawbacks. |
| 654 | * Horatio Caine drew a bit of inspiration to his quips from them. There may be those who groan at his wit, but he feels right at home at this temple. The prosecutors stated that the detective lieutenant is welcome at any time. |
| 655 | * There was a time when [=McCoy=] thought he had the right man behind bars and had the evidence to lock him up. All it took now was the jury to make their decision. Yet one juror thought something else was up. That juror managed to convince the others that the person was actually innocent. A quick going over on the case proved the man was innocent after all. Now back in the Pantheon, both [=McCoy=] and Schiff were shocked to see that the juror now has a temple of his own. The two shook hands with Juror #8 and thanked him for realizing their mistake. |
| 656 | * Then there are the ones who disappoint, as with the case of Harvey Dent. His demeanor was rough on the edges, but he had a great determination to lock up criminals. His tenure looked promising... until he had half his body burned off and was driven insane. The prosecutors see Dent's case as a tragedy for what happened to him. |
| 657 | * When it comes to examining evidence, the duo go over to Gil in order to find any clues they can use in court. [[TheCSIEffect Results may vary as some people point out how unrealistic some of the methods of finding evidence can be.]] Abby can be seen alongside him for assistance. |
| 658 | * Gibbs is often tasked in helping them find suspects and bringing them in. They like his dependability and his ability to [[PerpSweating strike fear into the eyes of perps]]. |
| 659 | * Exclusive to [=McCoy=]: |
| 660 | ** Some see him as the [[BreakoutCharacter face]] of the Franchise/LawAndOrder franchise, even more so than Briscoe. He has been humble about the distinction and wants nothing less than to bring as many of his friends over as possible. |
| 661 | ** A Catholic, he gets along fairly well with those of the faith. Former president Bartlet once said he would have had [=McCoy=] as his attorney general if given the chance. |
| 662 | * Exclusive to Schiff: |
| 663 | ** He may not have been the first one to use this skill, but [[TropeNamer he certainly turned it into an art style copied by many others after him.]] |
| 664 | ** A practical man, he prefers to cut deals with criminals so as to expedite the judicial process. It may stand in contrast with many other prosecutors, but he believes in getting criminals to see the error of their ways and to receive a lighter sentence. |

| 705 | * Paranoia can be your greatest friend or your worst enemy. In some cases, it can be both as you can be exposed to some truths you discover while realizing that your "life" was nothing more than a lie. This was the discovery seen by an American citizen named John Nada, who simply found a pair of sunglasses on his way to work. This changed everything in his perspective as the glasses revealed the truth in his eyes: an AlienInvasion that is invisible, slowly manipulating its own citizens for greed and profit. [[GoMadFromTheRevelation Such revelation would madden him]] and he would go on an action spree, killing the disguised aliens and eventually, after having a long fight with his friend Frank, joined a resistance movement intended to expose the truth to everyone. Ultimately [[spoiler:he exposes them by breaking all their equipment via an explosion while sacrificing himself to do so]]. |
| 706 | ** While many can break down his popularity, one notable aspect solidified him. During a bank assault, before he would attack the alien captors (which were disguised as security guards and bank tellers) he would say this very popular line: "[[ChewBubblegum I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass. And I'm all out of bubblegum.]]" Ever since then, many would replicate such a line [[ThrowItIn that was said out of a sudden]] as this would cement his legacy as a cultural icon. |
| 707 | * One day, when the Trope Pantheons had its fair share of tourists around the House of Pantheon/{{Commerce}}, a bank was reported being assaulted by a man armed with a shotgun. Authorities arrived when he was ready to fire when the last thing they heard from his mouth was something related to bubblegum. A gunfight ensued but while in the middle of it, one of the bank tellers said to cease fire as he recognized that line and the pair of sunglasses the gunman had on his face, telling the latter that they are not aliens. When the authorities stopped, they saw the shotgunner simply holding his glasses back and forth until he simply sighed and instructed to follow by. Revealed to be John Nada himself, he was given a position for the very line he spouted, as the Council recognized him and brought him in to be considered in getting a spot. |
| 708 | ** Since the raid, he has been setting sights against anything related to economics. Afterall, the aliens in his world were very rich and had a ton of control in many aspects of the economic spectrum. This, combined with his intense paranoia with the sunglasses has made him wary almost all the time, so expect him to avoid anything economics-wise, be it businessmen, topics and perhaps most products being advertised and such. [[AuthorTract Also, not because he is a symbol of anti-capitalism]], [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial no sir, not at all]]. |
| 709 | * First impressions for him have been rather wild. At first, he nearly in another attack spree due to his maddened sanity, overtime though did help him in the long run and made him less paranoid on his personal Pantheon sessions; until he went to [[Pantheon/{{Extraterrestrials}} a certain house]] that made him burst out his shotgun and put tons of bullet holes all around. Cleanup crew described the entrance of the house to be filled with circles alongside bullet shells on the floor, with Nada nowhere to be found and was only found yet again in his temple loading up a few more shells. Let us just say his vendetta against the alien menace has just started. |
| 710 | * Encounters with the third kind vary, either through a peaceful sight or in other cases, violent confrontations. To Nada, the latter is pretty much the only opinion on him. In fact, he will not take any alien deity alive and that simply beating these rich bastards, according to him anyway, was the option left. And do not think being friendly is enough to make sense out of him, because he has gone rather insane thanks to the truth he witnessed back on his world. Yup, you heard it, no peace, no talks, just a simple shotgun to the head is all he needs whenever an alien is nearby, after all, a good alien is a dead alien. And of course, this extends to the Pantheon itself, as it houses numerous aliens, so much that he ended up doubling his weapon buyout on a local gun store. |
| 711 | ** For most of the hostile species, be it facehuggers, headcrabs and others, expect him to just simply shoot them down, though he'll consider facehuggers a priority, as these small parasites are of a problem when dealt with very late, [[FaceFullOfAlienWingWong and they just look so damn nasty]]. When it comes to more basic aliens, such as Pod People or even the Martians, that is when things start getting heated up as the species' own brand of weapons and abilities may prove to be a challenge for him, although he can manage. It all goes downhill however once the more advanced aliens start appearing, and by advanced, as in extremely superior races or even armies, such as the Combine and even the Harvesters thanks to their looming threat and high-scale weaponry. The moment the latter showed up, it was clear his lone assaults could no longer be viable and decided to extend his help by joining a few groups, practically those who are experienced in [[LaResistance resistance movements]]. |
| 712 | ** Outside of the obviously advanced Combine, Nada found himself under fire from the Neuroi, and the Harvesters. The Harvester Queen tore off his temple easily and on one incident, he found himself chased by one of the Neuroi until the Witches' intervention. While he was glad to see such distraction, it took him minutes to be suspicious of the Witches themselves, as they are European and that World War II for them threw off-course. He asked if there were any American witches, only to receive a no as a response. |
| 713 | * Aid for new allies started with his meeting with the Peregrine Falcons and Sparrows Team, both sides contemplating whether John was fit to join such group, as his specialties was mostly on assaults. Still, with his lackluster profile, he was given a spot thanks to his unrelenting hate on aliens. After the first meeting, came in another important leader, who knew Nada's potential in his aid of forming a new resistance. He recognized him and shook hands with esteemed resistance leader Kyle Reese, who took it upon himself to congratulate him on his quest to take down the alien forces. He sees great worthiness on him and is willing to bring him to the war against SKYNET thanks to his experience. Followed shortly made him aware on rather two peculiar groups: XCOM and the Monsters of all things. Both who can aid in him on his personal alien battles. |
| 714 | ** The first meeting with XCOM did not go smoothly as he thought it was. At first, he thought it was a small guerrilla movement that used small arms fire, which it advertised itself to be. Then he went through a bunch of massive training sessions and checkups, all which he thought was the only thing the group had, until XCOM finally revealed all the technology it has possessed, from originally made plasma weapons to even retrofitted alien technology. From then on, he received his first batch of modified training and specialization tasks, all of which gave him a massive headache. Despite all the struggling, Dr. Vahlen has admitted he wanted Nada because he saw his unrelenting assaults on his worlds' aliens to be quite a scene, and believed that with enough modifications and upgrades, he could potentially make him more viable on the newer alien battlefields. |
| 715 | ** Then came his sudden meeting to the Monsters. Confused that he is talking to ''literal'' monsters, he questioned his allies if they were so serious on the idea of being a friend to a bunch of abominable creatures. Turns out there was a reason: The Monsters ended up being one of their military's last-ditch effort to take down their alien invaders, question was the monsters they selected. From a small cockroach-human hybrid scientist, a blue blob, a (literal) fish-person, a gigantic insect and perhaps the strangest being a supersized woman of all things, he was thinking if this was literally made of drugs, that was until Susan spoke, then Nada came into his senses and realized all of this was real. If it means a much better resistance against aliens, guess he will have to team up with a bunch of monsters on his war against the evil extraterrestrials. |
| 716 | ** Later meetings brought him a new set of allies and a strong bunch of alien slayers too. First were Gordon Freeman and Adrian Shephard, two survivors of the Black Mesa incident. He has more respect for the former, thanks to that fact that he became the bane of the Combine later. Sam Stone was more than glad to hear his ascension and brought in a fan on his phrase, Duke Nukem, who loves to use his phrase (and spin his own variations of it) [[ParodyDisplacement that ended up popularizing him as opposed to Nada's credit]]. |
| 717 | -->'''Duke:''' I'm here to kick ass and go to Magfest...and I'm all outta ass. |
| 718 | -->'''Nada:''' Probably missed Magfest while you were outta ass am I right? |
| 719 | ** In a stunning move that shocked absolutely no one, Dwayne Hicks offered Nada a spot into the Colonial Marines but refused, having his distrust towards the military. He states that his military were with the aliens and even said if the Marines were any different. Hicks' only response was with the Marines' long history with Weyland-Yutani, this sparked his interest. He also got into contact with the higher-ranked John-117, though Chief dismissed him since he is not part of the UNSC and are only allies when the alien wars start getting tough. |
| 720 | ** Nada and Isaac Clarke's relations are weird. For one, they are engineers though Nada was a construction worker and Clarke was a ship engineer. Their discoveries drove them deeper into the alien threat and as a result cannot get out from it, being the people who would save others or convince them of the looming threat. Then comes their paranoia, while Nada's was gradual, Isaac's was more extreme [[spoiler:and a byproduct of Marker exposure]]. This lead the two to somewhat understandable stances, but they'll have to control their insanities to make their lives much easier, not that it will matter anyway since a Marker was stored into the Pantheon and the presence of aliens in general has made Nada more terrified. |
| 721 | * Remember when it was said about John Nada's extension of his personal war against the aliens? Unfortunately, this brought in the good ones as well, as he cannot trust a single alien in due to his experience. The good ones are not spared however and has led to many controversial moments when he started firing on them. The Blorg were the initial species that tried to give him a peaceful convention, with several moments later him being seen dragging a Blorg body and a few shotgun shells placed on it. Then came his response with the Heptapods, believing that they are just simply mimicking their language just to invade them, where he was stopped by Louise Banks, telling him to not engage and simply be nice, but he isn't taking such excuse and has considered him a lost cause. After digging through his experiences and the world he lived in, she understood why he is very paranoid against any alien regardless of alignment, but that does not give the excuse to simply kill one in sight. |
| 722 | ** Then came the strained relationship he has garnered with the Arbiter, which would have been friendly for the two considering he is allies with the Chief, but that is not the case. As the aforementioned issue Nada has with every single alien-based deity has made overly paranoid even towards the nicer ones. The Arbiter sees reason in him but again, if he keeps lashing towards him and the rest of the elites, he will have to consult to Chief about what he should do to him. The same could be said towards Louise Banks, who had to call Pantheon authorities on him for trying to harass the Heptapods, with the aliens even giving messages from her about its sympathy for his world's unfortunate situation, though he won't have the chance to read the message thanks to his paranoid actions. |
| 723 | ** It got messier when Kaworu Nagisa got dragged into his list. He may look human [[spoiler:but inside that human looks are basically the 17th Angel in another form]]. NERV was forced to sedate him but they recognized that he knew way too much. Though there is a much pressing matter related to him and his discovery: [[spoiler: once he finds out that the 18th Angel is in fact, humanity itself]]. |
| 724 | ** There was talk with Commander Shepard about Nada's consideration into the group. This would have been the perfect opportunity to help him remedy this issue by introducing him to the N7 crew, which has its fair share of alien friendlies. This somewhat worked, in that it did help him reintroduce a new bond with some of his comrades (and for some reason, attraction towards T'soni) but also refueled his paranoia with some of the aliens presented, more notably the Krogans and perhaps the Turians. The results left much to be desired, but Shepard has him in touch should he need company. |
| 725 | ** And if it was not bad enough, he got involved with the [=MiB=], possibly due to his interference with numerous alien life, including the neutral ones. Sadly, the glasses Nada wears nullifies their Neuralyzer's effects, making it useless to remove his memories. Agent K also states that whatever Nada has gotten himself into has himself deep into what he has seen, putting the situation on hold. At least they have an asset when it comes to the evil aliens lying around. |
| 726 | * Speaking of alien threats, toleration towards those who side with them is something he will kill on sight. Just ask his betrayal by Holly, he will always have rants on how he could have seen it from her eyes. Though this mistake gave him clarity on people like her and sought four targets: Wallace Breen for conditioning Earth's surrender to the Combine, Ragyo Kiryuin for making a deal with the parasitic Life Fibers, Lex Luthor for his deals with numerous aliens just to oust Superman and ADVENT, perhaps the worst amongst all the alien collaborators [[VideoGame/XCOM2 for actually holding the Earth and becoming a large superpower with virtually little resistance]]. Of all of them, ADVENT has been the one he has been watching closely. |
| 727 | * As said before about paranoia, there are similar things heard from him about Dib and Koba. For one, Dib had his eyes on Zim, who was an alien that for some reason on his world, was never recognized because of the populace being stupid (in Nada's case they had disguises so there is reason for the citizens to be fooled) while on Koba's case was more on his irrational hatred towards people in general. While he related to Dib, despite the former being a lunatic more than him, he tends to avoid the latter, thanks to the former's antagonistic view on humans. |
| 728 | * The House of Commerce has a rather unlikable stance on Nada, stemming from the fact that his actions [[TakeThat represent the hatred of capitalism and its effects to the community at large.]] Nada on the other hand think that the House is basically the alien's hiding/base of operations, as the aliens on his place thrived on rich places and the most obvious spot is where the economics are heavily driven. This only worsened the bond due to the latter's paranoia and his symbolism, with a possibility that people may start believing on his crazy antics or the secret symbolism found on his actions. |

| 744 | * Philoctetes (though he likes being called Phil) was a trainer of heroes, like Odysseus, Theseus, Perseus, a lot of -euses and Achilles, but none of them gone the distances. He grew cynical of his abilities and retired, believing that he'll never achieve his dream of his star hero appearing in the constellations. He returned from his retirement when a young demigod named Hercules needed his training to become a true hero, believing that he is his last hope of achieving his dream. Phil have been known to some for his inability to miscount his words with the [[TwoWordsAddedEmphasis "two words" clause]]. |
| 745 | ** Even some of the dumber deities question his counting skill, such as Goofy. |
| 746 | ** That said, his first miscount ("Two words: I am retired.) really is two words…when translated into Greek. |
| 747 | * He is pleased to see Hercules again as a true hero, along with Pegasus, despite not liking animals initially. |
| 748 | * He was a rival of Chiron due to the fact that he trained many great heroes. Ironically, Phil also trained many of the heroes that were Chiron's students. |
| 749 | ** He meet other trainers of heroes such as Batman and Charles Xavier. Often times, he buttheads with them due to being more successful with training heroes than him. |
| 750 | * He meets with some of his students again, like Odysseus and Perseus. To say that they don't bring him up at times, besides not recalling receiving training from him, should say that Phil and his students didn't get along well. |
| 751 | * In spite of the House of Heroes being a renowned house, Phil doesn't considered them real heroes since none of them went through hero training. Many of them also consider that in spite of Phil [[Westernanimation/HerculesTheAnimatedSeries getting a "Hero License" to be able to keep his trainer job]], he's not fit for fighting evil either. |
| 752 | * A pervert, a trait as a satyr, Phil is known to make many advances with many of the women in the Pantheon. Many are disgusted by this and reject him, mostly physically. The only woman that he managed to impress is Aphrodite, though that isn't surprising as he got a hero's kiss from the goddess. |
| 753 | * He meets with Sora and his companions once again after [[Franchise/KingdomHearts their initial visits to the Colosseum]]. He is still skeptical of the Key Bearer's potential as a true hero, even still thinking he's a rookie. |
| 754 | * Once stumbled upon the Penguin, and both were shocked at [[Creator/DannyDeVito how similar they look]]. |
| 755 | * When his presence is made aware by Malfurion Stormrage and Tyrande Whisperwind, he was surprised to hear about [[VideoGame/{{Warcraft}} demon-worshipping satyrs in Azeroth]] when they grew suspicious of him. Apparently, he was nearly shot by Tyrande's arrows twice, one for the first impression and the other was him trying to make advances on her. |
| 756 | * [[BerserkButton Do not mention anything about his training with Achilles]]. He once beat up a guy for bringing it up. |
| 757 | * While there is a God of Satyrs, Phil has nothing to say on [[Pantheon/FantasticalBeasts the Faun]], other than he at least didn't try to get Phil killed like [[Westernanimation/HerculesTheAnimatedSeries satyr king Pan once did]]. |

Quick Draw always has good intentions, but the ways he's tried to stop villains leaves a lot to be desired. Baba Looey attempts to provide the voice of reason to Quick Draw, but is frequently shot down by Quick Draw, who tells Baba Looey that he does the thinking and not to forget it. Besides using his gun poorly, Quick Draw sometimes takes on the role of El Kabong, a vigilante that goes around whacking wrongdoers on the head with a guitar. |
| 772 | * As the Pantheon went about its own business, a horse and his burro were walking around and found themselves at the gates of the Pantheon. After explaining themselves to the gatekeepers and that they were there to handle criminals that they believed were hiding at a place called "The Pantheon", the two were allowed entry. Quick Draw confronted the criminals and prepared to apprehend them, but his incompetence resulted in his targets getting away. It took a few more tries for Quick Draw before he could truly catch those criminals and even after that was accomplished, he still suffered a mishap that resulted in him falling off a cliff. Quick Draw then believed that "The Pantheon" was home to many more criminals that he couldn't catch and decided to stay there to continue his work, with Baba Looey sticking around. |
| 773 | * Compared to a majority of cowboys that patrol the Pantheon, Quick Draw isn't taken that seriously by them. Much of it is due to Quick Draw's bumbling behavior and despite being quick to pull out his gun (hence his name), he often makes the mistake of shooting himself in the face. Arguably the only cowboy that's willing to be friends with Quick Draw is Lucky Luke, who is similarly fast with getting his gun out and has had comical misadventures in the Wild West. Both Quick Draw and Lucky Luke have worked together to stop criminals from going after towns in the deserts of the Pantheon, with plenty of mayhem occurring in the process. |
| 774 | * Yosemite Sam and his various criminal endeavors got the attention of Quick Draw, who saw the former as very much similar to the criminals he's stopped in the past. With Bugs Bunny too busy to take care of Sam at the moment, it was up to Quick Draw to thwart Sam's plan. Sam didn't really take the horse seriously as Quick Draw made a number of unsuccessful attempts to catch Sam, but what Quick Draw lacked in wits was his persistence to catch Sam. Even though Sam was eventually captured, he would later escape, prompting a few additional confrontations between him and Quick Draw whenever Sam isn't dealing with that wabbit. |
| 775 | * Rango heard about Quick Draw and his supposed reputation for stopping criminals of the Wild West and wanted to meet up with him. The horse ended up finding a chameleon while going to another part of the Pantheon during another mission of his and found out that chameleon was able to talk. Rango befriended Quick Draw decided to tag along with him for a bit, with the chameleon offering a bit of "guidance" via telling Quick Draw the story of his adventure and how he became a successful Western hero through unconventional means. By the time Quick Draw, Baba Looey, and Rango arrived at their destination, they ended up finding Rattlesnake Jake waiting, who wasn't amused at seeing another animal lawman wanting to take him in and ended up giving Quick Draw quite a challenge. Jake ultimately saw Quick Draw as little more than a persistent nuisance after their confrontation. |
| 776 | * For some of his crime-fighting escapades, Quick Draw takes on the mantle of El Kabong, a vigilante who dresses up like Zorro and delivers justice via sword fighting and/or bonking others on the head with a guitar (or kabonger as he describes it). The real Zorro caught wind of the copycat's capers following a bungled attempt by El Kabong to capture a criminal. Zorro stepped in and after a daring swordfight, the criminal was captured and Zorro talked to El Kabong, unaware of the latter's real identity of Quick Draw Mcgraw. While Zorro was understanding of El Kabong's dedication of thwarting evildoers, it was clear that the latter's efforts didn't reach what Zorro was hoping for, especially when it comes Kabong's lack of subtlety. Despite it, Zorro didn't have any ill will against El Kabong and hoped that Kabong would improve gradually. |
| 777 | ** Puss in Boots heard about Kabong from Zorro and wanted to know about another animal that's trying to copy Zorro's character in an unorthodox way. Puss had much of the same reaction to Kabong that Zorro did, though Kabong's use of a guitar as a weapon got Puss' attention a bit more since he ended up whacking Kitty Softpaws with one the first time they met (much to Softpaws' annoyance). He's also wondering where Kabong gets his guitars from (and without any case to store them in on top of that) given that they break as soon as they hit someone on the head. |
| 778 | * Kabong usually springs into action whenever he hears the cries of help from a damsel in distress, generally after (poorly) singing from his "kabonger". Snidely Whiplash had kidnapped another damsel and Quick Draw heard her cry for help, prompting him to become El Kabong and save her as Dudley Do-Right somehow got caught up in an unrelated matter. Snidely was greeted with a guitar to the head and got into a battle of wits against Kabong. It took another whacking to stop Snidely's attempt and Kabong was able to save Snidely's victim. Whenever Snidely doesn't have to put up with Dudley, there's a chance that El Kabong will step in and become his adversary at the moment. |
| 779 | * Some of his adventures involved using a bloodhound that's obsessed with dog treats to sniff out targets. Looking to find a canine to fill in a similar role (the dog treats part is presumably optional), Quick Draw has tried to get along with other dogs in the Pantheon in the hopes that one of them would be willing to spend their time with him catching crooks. Some of these attempts didn't go as well as Quick Draw hoped for, with some of these canines attacking him out of irritation following his usual idiocy. |
| 780 | * He's made frequent visits to Applejack, another equine with behavior similar to that of a cowboy. Quick Draw is noted to be fond of the various apple-based treats that Applejack has made and she sometimes gives him advice on how to improve his heroics. While he still has a ways to go in terms of not bumbling around, some of Applejack's advice has stuck with him. |
| 781 | * Quick Draw found out that he wasn't the only white horse with a sense of justice as he heard about another of his kind going around performing such activities. His search for that horse led him to meet Maximus, who was far more competent in his job than Quick Draw was. Their first meeting together led to some confusion seeing as how Quick Draw is a talking horse on two legs and Maximus stands on all fours and doesn't really talk, with most of his gestures providing his thoughts. While Maximus isn't above mocking some of Quick Draw's failures, he still sees said failures as a result of Quick Draw trying too hard and not taking advice from others seriously. Maximus has also seen El Kabong a few times and seems to be partially aware that Kabong and Quick Draw are the same thing. While both Quick Draw and Maximus aren't in any real conflict with each other, Quick Draw's attempts to get Maximus to work with him have gone nowhere. |

| 803 | * Conflicting Opinion: [[Pantheon/BodyParts Chibi-Robo]] |
| 804 | * Many gods were more or less wondering how did Scott get into the Pantheon. Perhaps Scott’s love for games led him here to try out every game across TheMultiverse that is not [[TakeThat called an RPG]]. Maybe it was to spread the wonders of the ''Madden 08''. Either way, Scott had arrived in, having his gaming collection at hand. |
| 805 | -->'''Scott''': Wow! A place where all these fictional and nonfictional characters, both from mainstream and obscure media converging in one place? What’s not to love? |
| 806 | -->'''Ten hours later...''' |
| 807 | -->'''Scott''': Okay. I’ve been robbed about five or six times. There is a ForeverWar going on between twelve creepos. I don’t know what their deal is. And the Wii Shop Channel is still closed. |
| 808 | -->*{{beat}}* |
| 809 | -->'''Scott''': [[SuddenlyShouting WHAT F*CK IS THE POINT OF ALL OF THIS?!]] |
| 810 | * Primarily known for being quite passionate about gaming, Scott has been known to be the kind of person to rant about game cases or the L button for ten minutes, only to scream towards the end about [[BrickJoke another subject he brought up minutes ago]]. Having a witty personality, Scott likes to bring up one thing he likes, then talks about the flaws of said thing he likes. Since the [[BrutalHonesty blunt aspect of his personality]] is a core trait of his, Scott was allowed ascension. |
| 811 | * While Scott may have misgivings about the Pantheon (the man has been robbed five times, cut him a break), he had a fangasm over meeting his favorite gaming characters, especially those from the Mushroom Kingdom since ''VideoGame/SuperMarioGalaxy'' is his favorite game of all time and well... Mario. While everybody is used to some ascended gamer go up, praising them but when Scott came up, they knew he was different because of the first thing he asked. |
| 812 | -->'''Scott''': Why did you stop giving costumes in ''VideoGame/SuperMarioMaker2''? What do you have against being able to play as [[Series/RetroGameMaster Shinya Arino]]?! |
| 813 | ** While still a fan, Scott isn’t afraid to let out some criticism when it comes to it as any good critic should, [[AccentuateTheNegative even if said criticism is very much a nitpick]]. Also, he’s not a particular fan of games that involve lots of menus and prefers games that make you just go. He can see a platformer and be like, “This makes sense.” Then he looks at an RPG’s inventory screen and says, “This is a whole new world of danger I am trenching in.” |
| 814 | * Though is there anything that beats his aforementioned favorite game of all time? It is the great, the ever so glorious, ''Madden 08''. It is a game so masterfully crafted, Scott can’t even call it his favorite game because guess what, [[ItsTheBestWhateverEver it would be offensive to call it just a game]]. Went up to John Madden himself, thanking for his creation with tears in his eyes. John Madden was flabbergasted and did not know a lick of what Scott was saying but patted the boy on the back like a usual football fan. |
| 815 | ** ''Madden 08'' is actually a catalyst for the world not turning into a dictatorship, as ''Dick Vitale’s ‘Awesome Baby!’ College Hoops'' would be put on a pedestal by fascists to used it to TakeOverTheWorld with everybody having a cult attachment to it. Scott managed to rid of that timeline’s dictatorship though always holds onto a copy of ''Madden 08'', just to make sure existence does not go into the toilet without it. Considering how the TimeyWimeyBall works, a timeline where the Pantheon is run by ''Dick Vitale’s ‘Awesome Baby!’ College Hoops'' is possible. |
| 816 | * Has a bit of a heated rivalry with Jon Jafari over the fact that Jon’s entire freaking subreddit became dedicated to Scott over the amount of ScheduleSlip he has gone through made his fans turn to a new . While Scott told his followers replacing people’s subreddits into his is [[DiscreditedMeme NOT a good thing]] (especially after doing it to a [[WebVideo/{{Etika}} now deceased person]]), he holds it against Jon after he was called [[BigStupidDoodooHead a terminal illness by him]]. Both butt heads occasionally over which games, but not often enough to be declared the new WebVideo/GameGrumps. |
| 817 | * On good terms with the Angry Video Game Nerd, who is by all accounts the progenitor of internet gaming content. So much so that the Nerd narrated a Scott episode for a brief moment on Christmas. |
| 818 | * Feels bad for E.T. being primarily blamed for [[MediaNotes/TheGreatVideoGameCrashOf1983 almost killing off video games]] when [[{{Misblamed}} that is not the real case]]. The oversaturation of low quality games despite promises of a “fun time” alienating consumers where the true reason why the crash had happened. E.T. having higher sales expectancies by Creator/{{Atari}} and not selling well did the industry no favors. Plus, Scott points out that while E.T. is extremely cryptic on what to do, weren’t all non-arcade style games at the time doing the same? On through the Platform/NintendoEntertainmentSystem that consumers lightened up because video games [[GrowingTheBeard were simpler to understand and worth the investment in this industry]]. |
| 819 | * Tried to replace food stamps, Halloween candy, and an assortment of other food with gaming-related products that aren’t food at all, which made Chester Bum have stomach surgery after consuming unsold Platform/NintendoDS cartridges. Scott has been banned from working at relief efforts afterward. |
| 820 | * Bonded well with both Chiaki Nanamis over playing some games. One does not know true danger until you see a high schooler, a virgin, and a computer play VideoGame/MarioKart together. [[spoiler:Real Chiaki won that round]]. |
| 821 | ** Would never forgive Junko Enoshima or Monokuma for killing not one but both of his friends. Is also thoroughly pissed at her for sending him a disc of ''Madden 08'' except chopped up, and filmed of being tossed into a shredder and then flattened vertically. It was all just to see if Scott would be driven to despair. |
| 822 | -->'''Scott''': [[YouMonster YOU ANIMAL!]] |
| 823 | * Also friends with legendary gamer M, Emu Hojo. Scott is interested on collecting and playing Gemncorp-related consoles and games, so Emu not only showed him how they worked (Scott notes they look like mobile games somehow running Platform/GameGear-styled hardware), but showed him the real potential of the Gashats by shoving it into his Gamer Driver and turning into Ex-Aid. Scott then took note [[HumansAdvanceSwiftly THAT was next-generation technology right there]]. |
| 824 | * After collecting a few things himself, Scott really, REALLY wanted the Kamen Rider Chronicle Gashat and went up to Masumune Dan himself to ask. [[ForegoneConclusion This ended as well as one would expect]]. Masumune Dan immediately kicked out Scott after bringing up being friends with Ex-Aid, leaving the gamer quite dejected. After Ex-Aid chewed on him for doing something so idiotic, Scott only had this to say: |
| 825 | -->'''Scott''': How was supposed to know to know he would stop time and kick my ass. All I did was follow the address I got from the Genmcorp helpline and- [[HeelRealization I typed in Junko Enoshima’s phone number]]. Dammit. |
| 826 | * Instead of going through Senior Dan, why not go to Junior Dan? After asking Kuroto for a Gashat, Kuroto was offended a “mortal” like Scott would dare request and was going to kick him out like his his dad did. In a split second of thinking, Scott brought up the greatness that was ''Madden 08'' and said that whatever game that the programmer would make probably won’t beat it. Then Kuroto—absolutely and positively furious—took that as a challenge to his skills and swore he would make a Gashat that would surpass this ''Madden 08'' he has never heard of. Scott laughed as he looked at the Gamer Driver he somehow obtained on his shelf, awaiting when he could use its power. This is all not knowing the fact that [[TransformationTrinket the special Gashats are the only ones that allow transformation]]. |
| 827 | -->'''Scott''': I can’t wait to become [[RunningGag Kamen Rider Madden]]! That Gamer Driver was worth so much money, [[TemptingFate ow can it not work?]] |
| 828 | * Really likes Chibi-Robo’s... [[FirstInstallmentWins first game]]. He [[{{Sequelitis}} HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATES]] the titles Chibi-Robo got in the portable for not only [[SoOkayItsAverage being the most generic things ever]] and [[FranchiseKiller killing of Chibi-Robo’s series potential]]. Not apologizing for the amount of copies of that game [[{{Pun}} he flushed into the toilet]]. |
| 829 | * An advocate for game preservation. Believes all video games or at least professional ones should be enjoyed for generations to come and not become obscure [[KeepCirculatingTheTapes thanks to unavailability]]. If people can seriously say that ''Film/TheRoom2003'' is considered [[SoBadItsGood a work of art]], then games should be put on the same pedestal as well. Fortunately, the Pantheon takes video games extremely seriously judging by the amount of people from games are deities here. |
| 830 | * Relatively disgusted by Tsumugi Shirogane’s belief that fiction cannot change the world. Fiction has changed people throughout history and the statement that fiction cannot do anything is just ludicrous. |
| 831 | -->'''Scott''': What do you mean fiction can’t change the world? There are trillions of dollars poured into the industries are about FICTION. I buy thousands of dollars worth of things about FICTION. Your entire career is about dressing up as people from FICTION. So stop yelling the word [[YouKeepUsingThatWord FICTION like its a bad thing]] because it isn’t! |
| 832 | ** Tsumugi, angered by his rant, [[ItsPersonal decided to get personal with Scott]]. She decided to cosplay as one of Scott’s greatest enemies: a copy ''VideoGame/AnimalCrossing amiibo Festival''. Scott can be heard screaming from miles. |
| 833 | * Now that is the end of this profile. The Pantheon was much better than he thought. [[GradeSystemSnark He gave three kneeslaps out of five]]. He would give it three and a half kneeslaps if it wasn’t for his robbing and the amount of menus there are here, especially ones without a blue border. |
| 834 | -->'''Scott''': [[BrickJoke Oh sh*t, I just realized I can’t read.]] |

| 848 | * {{Sitcom Arch Nemesis}}: [[Pantheon/InsaneBehavior Kenji Setou]] |
| 849 | * Back in her world, Tenko is famed as the Ultimate Aikido Master for her skills with Neo-Aikido, a variation of Aikido that she created together with her master. Her most standout personality trait is her great dislike and distrust for men, who she nearly always call "degenerate males". After the event of the Killing Game she was forced into [[spoiler:and where she lost her life]], she was chosen to ascend as the goddess of [[CatchphraseInsult Insulting Catchphrases]]. |
| 850 | * Tenko woke up confused in her House after her death. Shuichi Saihara, who insisted to be one of the first to meet a fellow former participant of his Killing Game, greeted her along with the deities that were part of the other Killing Games and explained what was going on. While she was, of course, disappointed that the familiar face wasn't another girl, the two's experience in the Killing Games has resulted in them being surprisingly good friends, though she still insults or suspects him from time to time. She's glad he's working on becoming more confident and even offered to teach him Neo-Aikido to help it. Shuichi didn't refuse but he shows no sign of getting any better at it. |
| 851 | ** In addition to explaining the nature of the Pantheon, Shuichi also the truth behind their Killing Game. [[spoiler:Mainly that Tsumugi Shirogane was the mastermind behind it and that most if not all of the participant's memories were faked through technology]]. Tenko first had a hard time [[spoiler:dealing with the fact that her whole past may be a lie]], but she resolved herself to continue to stick to her ideals of following her feelings and to protect girls everywhere, regardless of what's true or not. She [[spoiler:was also absolutely furious that someone she thought as a friend was responsible for all her and the other's suffering]] and went on to confront Tsumugi about it. The cosplayer replied [[spoiler:that it was just one of the many lies Tenko was dumb enough to believe]], resolving the Aikido Master's resolve to fight both her and her mentor Junko Enoshima. |
| 852 | * Her temple is a replica of the dojo that Monokuma provided as her 'research lab' during the Killing Game. While she, of course, doesn't like to be reminded of her captivity, she actually liked the room and so is okay with that. |
| 853 | * Tenko got to meet the good-aligned former participants of the other Killing Games. Naturally, considering their similar experiences and their fellow status as Ultimates, Tenko did her best to befriend the girls amongst them. She particularly likes to spare with Sakura Ogami and Peko Pekoyama and rapidly became a fan of Maizono due to her love for idol singers and do her best to attend all of the latter's concerts. |
| 854 | ** After learning that Aoi Asahina was the Ultimate Swimmer, Tenko asked to become her 'Master of the Sea' (because she already has one on land), i.e. teach the martial artist how to swim so she wouldn't be embarrassed about her lack of skills anymore. Aoi gladly accepted, but quickly requested that Tenko doesn't call her master. The two can be often seen during lessons in one of the pools in the House of Sports. |
| 855 | ** She was surprised to hear that Ibuki Mioda's [[Creator/JulieAnnTaylor voice sounded just like her]]. The latter thought of it as a very amusing and immediately challenged her 'voice sister' to a shouting match. Thankfully, Tenko is energetic enough to keep up with Ibuki's whims but would rather avoid hearing [[Main/DeathMetal the kind of music]] the Ultimate Musician likes to make. |
| 856 | * As said before, Tenko highly distrusts men, who she thinks are always perverted and want to prey on innocent women. It takes little evidence for her to start accusing them of every crime she can think of and even threatening to beat them up. This brought the attention of Boa Hancock, who heavily approves of Tenko's mission to protect women and punish degenerate males. Meanwhile, Tenko is amazed by Boa's beauty and her having founded an island free of males, though she is completely baffled by the Pirate Empress's crush on a rude, weird-looking male like Luffy. Artemis also approved of the young martial artist's philosophy. |
| 857 | * The Neo-Aikido she practices is a rather odd martial art. While it's based on normal Aikido, it is much more aggressive and seems to have a 'no tactic is too dirty' philosophy. As such, Tenko is happy to incorporate techniques from many martial arts into her fighting style, including those using weapons. So naturally, she spends a lot of her time in the House of Combat to learn everything she can from the female martial artists there. |
| 858 | ** During her time there, she witnessed a sparring match between Saint Martha and Tifa Lockhart. Amazed by their prowess, Tenko asked if they could take her as a pupil. The two, endeared by her earnestness, accepted and sometimes spend times teaching her their moves. Martha, in particular, appreciates that one of Neo-Aikido's teachings is to not get too excited about Christmas. |
| 859 | ** Other Aikido practitioners she met and befriended are Misaki Ayuzawa and Makoto Nijima. She especially admires the first for disciplining a school full of insensitive boys into a safe haven for girls. As for Misaki, she understands where's Tenko dislike of men is coming from but thinks the Ultimate has a tendency to jump the gun on her suspicions. |
| 860 | * One of Neo Aikido's obligations is to be a 'hero of justice' that wears a mask and do deeds like helping women in trouble and beating up criminals, which she has been seen doing even in the Pantheon. This superhero act brought the attention of Wonder Woman, who was reminded by Tenko's anti-men rants of the more hostile members of her amazons. So she offered to mentor the younger woman in heroism while secretly wanting to aid her in getting over her misandrism. The Ultimate Aikido Master accepted and sometimes act as a sort of sidekick for the amazon. |
| 861 | * Orisa like her dedication to protecting innocents and the two often works together to save people from scoundrels. Tough the Omni is adamant that they protect *everyone*, including males, and do her best to reign in Tenko's impetuous nature. |
| 862 | * As someone who greatly admire performers, especially idols, Tenko was overjoyed to hear from Sayaka that there were not one, but two huge idol groups within the pantheon. She first went over to meet 765 Pro in the House of Music to watch their concerts and ask for their autograph. Upon learning that Yukiho Hagiwara was afraid of men, she declared that she would protect her against any degenerate males that tried to approach her. Yukiho appreciates the intent, but Tenko's over-excitable behavior kinda scares her too. |
| 863 | ** She also went to meet μ's for similar reasons. At first, it seemed to also have gone pretty well. But shortly after her visits, recordings of her voice praising the male gender and acting what was apparently a torrid love affair with some conveniently unheard boy. She was naturally pissed off beyond reason at this prank and investigated (read: half-forced Shuichi into doing it) the situation to find out who did this. It turned out that the culprits were Miu Matsuoka and Nico Yazawa, who happened to be hanging out together when Tenko met the later's group and took advantage of [[Creator/SoraTokui their similar voices to fake the recordings]]. Tenko loudly chewed them out for it and made them promise to never do that dirty trick again, though this has not stopped the two from trying to find other ways to annoy her. When asked why they wanted to antagonize the martial artists, Nico and Miu [[ACupAngst only looked enviously towards Tenko's chest]]. |
| 864 | * Her love for performers extends to magical girls, so when she heard that there was a whole organization of them, she rushed to meet them all and was amazed by the numbers and varieties of beautiful and cute girls that made up the Sisterhood. While she obviously couldn't join their ranks, she still declared that she would fight alongside them whenever they needed help. After learning what Lucifer did to the group, she swore she would defeat him someday. Fortunately, she knows she's beyond outclassed but that only motivated her to train harder. |
| 865 | ** During her visit, she had the misfortune of being spotted by Souji Mitsuka. Instantly enamored by her long and elaborate twin-tails, the boy suddenly spat out a long-winded and flowery speech to exalt their virtues. Since he was in his male form, this only creeped her out. While she was stopped from assaulting him for his weird praise, she loudly informed him that she would beat him up if he ever got too close to her. |
| 866 | * Despite often claiming that males are perverted, Tenko's mind tends to be in the gutter a lot of times, particularly when thinking about her crush Himiko from back in her own world. She also gets incredibly flustered when females deities compliment her looks. For this reason and her misandry, her allies do their best to not let her get near the most lustful gods in the House of Love, in fear that she would be an easy target for the female ones or that she'd try to assault the male ones. |
| 867 | * On one fateful day, she happened to bump into Kenji Sentou, which caused her to complain that dumb males should watch where they're going. This, in turn, prompted Kenji to rants that the feminists were now openly assaulting and harassing malekind, which in turn caused Tenko to rant about how degenerate males always have a persecution complex. Eventually, this meeting turned into a debate/shouting complex that nearly came to blows before very annoyed gods forcibly separated the two. From that day on, when one sees the other, they immediately begin to accuse each other of having a nefarious agenda, annoying everybody around them. |
| 868 | ** Cersei Lannister happened to overhear one of those 'arguments'. In her usual petty manner, Cersei made a comment on how a simple girl was trying to cover up her obvious jealousy towards males by speaking ill of them. The Ultimate Aikido Master understandably couldn't let that slide and confronted the queen about it. She only ended completely mortified at how much Cersei hated her own gender. After hearing about her horrific actions from other Westeros gods, Tenko declared that the obviously insane monarch was her enemy. |
| 869 | * She holds great importance to embracing your emotions, positives or negatives, and expressing them rather than bottling them in. This valorization of honesty met the approval of Applejack. Tenko finds the hat-wearing pony adorable and sometimes helps at her farm. |
| 870 | * One time she went to visit Shuichi in the Profession house, she saw him surrounded by the Milky Holmes group, who wanted to get advice on how to become great detectives. [[NotWhatItLooksLike After they spend many minutes explaining to an angry Tenko that no, Shuichi wasn't being a degenerate womanizer,]] the four befriended her, with Nero in particular feeling drawn to the martial artist [[Creator/SoraTokui for some reason]]. The Aikido practitioner promised she would help the group with any of their investigations. |
| 871 | * Naturally, as a self-declared protector of women, Tenko violently opposes people who really do prey on them such as serial killers like Yoshikage Kira and Jack the Ripper. [[spoiler:It doesn't help that she herself was killed by a serial killer who exclusively targeted women.]] |
| 872 | ** This also includes sexual predators like Akio Ohtori or Embryo. After learning more about her, Embryo commented that her fierce demeanor and her willingness to do anything for the girl she liked [[spoiler: up to accidentally prevent her from being killed in her place]] made her more than worthy of him. Naturally, this pissed her off even more but she realized that unlike Ohtori, she couldn't defeat him on her own. So she allied herself with Embryo's archnemesis Ange. The fallen princess finds Tenko's misandrist tirades annoying, but fully admit they're completely accurate when it comes to the Tuner. |
| 873 | * [[spoiler: Back in the Killing Game, Tenko pretended to join a led made by a fellow Killing Game participant so that she could help Himiko.]] Upon learning that, Wizardmon [[spoiler: who similarly joined Myotismon's army for his friend Gatomon's sake,]] sought her to talk about it. Their first meeting was greatly helped by the fact that Wizardmon is [[NoBiologicalSex technically not male]] and the two empathized with each other over having to do that during which Tenko made it clear that she had no plan on repeating this particular strategy. [[spoiler:Which is just as well, considering how much of a BadLiar she is.]] |

| 892 | * Zoidberg is a space lobster who is also a doctor, though the doctor thing is a bit questionable since he's not quite good with human anatomy. There's also a weird tendency by people to not lump him into a group when making sentences. Strangely enough, he's done it to himself a few times, so it'd be safe to say that he's more or less used to it. |
| 893 | * The way his ascension played out wasn't that surprising given that the speech began with "My fellow Pantheonic deities! And Zoidberg". Though there were some that was hoping the opening line was something along the lines of "Gods! Goddesses! Pantheon/{{We|apons}}iss." |
| 894 | * Made a visit to the House of Pantheon/HealthAndDiseases, where he was asked to explain his background as a doctor. Although the doctors there were a bit reluctant about hiring him given the fact that he accidentally killed human patients while performing operations on them, they decided to let him work there occasionally when it comes to alien anatomy. |
| 895 | ** Black Jack has offered to teach Zoidberg lessons on human anatomy so the lobster-alien can improve his surgery skills on such. It's taking quite a bit of time, though there's a fair number who's convinced Black Jack will succeed in making Zoidberg a much better surgeon. |
| 896 | * He may or may not be Jewish, though given how he acts, most deities are inclined to think the former. Regardless of such, he is good enough friends with Kyle Broflovski, though his tendencies made him a target of Eric Cartman, who didn't care if Zoidberg was Jewish or not. |
| 897 | * By default, he is a rather nice guy, though [[JerkassBall there have been instances where he has acted uncharacteristically cruel]]. That said, Zoidberg does actually feel remorse about acting in less-than-savory ways. It's not really stopping the more malicious pranksters from setting him off [[ForTheEvulz for their own amusement]]. |
| 898 | * Is one of the very few deities that [[Pantheon/XmasAndYule Robot Santa]] doesn't consider as naughty. Many, including Nicholas St. North, are still wondering why that's the case. |
| 899 | * He is a frequent visitor to the House of Pantheon/{{Food}} and tends to eat a lot of the food there rather fast. Of particular note is his affinity towards anchovies to the point where the house often calls for a restock of said items after he eats all of that food up. |
| 900 | * His woopwoopwoopwoop noise is noted to be a bit similar to the Three Stooges' own woopwoopwoop. He's good enough friends with the three and oddly enough, whenever a pie fight happens in the House of Food, Zoidberg will usually eat the pie from his face after said food gets thrown at him. |
| 901 | * Many suspect that if a new Pokemon were to be revealed, then [[http://i.imgur.com/rbXYBx3.png this]] is what Zoidberg would be hoping for. It's a long shot to say the least, and Wobbuffet isn't saying anything about it. |
| 902 | * As someone who's suffered quite a bit of abuse back in his own universe, he's able to relate to other victims of comedic abuse such as Pluto, Chuck, and Almaz. |
| 903 | * Since he is largely interested in making friends, Zoidberg tends to talk to Teddie frequently because of their shared desire to have friends, even in unfavorable circumstances. |
| 904 | ** Zoidberg also hangs out with Mami Tomoe, Coyote Starrk, and Enju Aihara due to all of them wanting to have friends. The five have expressed interest in giving advice to others who want to make friends. |
| 905 | *** The lobster has also provided interest in finding something to treat Enju's condition. Most aren't willing to take a chance on Zoidberg working on an operation, but he is more than willing to help others find something to, at the very least, mitigate whatever it is that Enju has. |
| 906 | * Apart from hanging out with Fry and Bender, Zoidberg can be seen alongside other Fox animated sitcom stars Homer Simpson and Bob Belcher. Although Zoidberg is friendly with fellow alien Roger Smith, the latter often performs [[ComedicSociopathy outrageous actions against Zoidberg]] at completely random moments. A similar situation occurs in regards to Stewie Griffin. |
| 907 | * For whatever reason, whenever someone asks Zoidberg to do some cutting, he does the cutting. [[BerserkButton Don't tell him otherwise]]. |
| 908 | * Apparently has a doctorate in art history in addition to being an alien surgeon. No one can really say for sure if Zoidberg is a competent artist or not, though there are rumors that the House of Pantheon/{{School}} is considering him to be a substitute teacher for art history classes there. |
