'''Prophecy and Fate'''

The House of Prophecy sits upon the highest mountain, standing above the rest of the Pantheon as if silently watching them. There are a lot of rumors about what the inside of the House looks like. The truth is that it is possibly the most spartan and austere of the Houses - very plain, very bare of comforts, a rather boring place. That has not stopped a brave few from climbing up in order to ask the inhabitants what the future holds. Most either never reached the top or were frustrated by prophetic gibberish, and the few that had the patience to listen returned... changed somehow, though none would speak of what had taken place. Occasionally, a deity from the House of Prophecy would come down from the mountain and offer to tell fortunes... for a price, of course. However, many would find their predictions frustratingly vague and nonsensical, while others would have preferred not to have known their fortunes at all.

[[Main/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Kamina]] currently stands as the House of Prophecy's number one threat, due to his alarming invisibility to prescience was well as the ability to change fate. The House of Prophecy is quick to involve itself in any issue that pertains to him.

--> '''Huu:'''Pants are an illusion, and so is death.
* Tens to get into a LOT of arguments with the other gods, partially because most in the houses believe we make our own fate. He tends to get into daily fights with Kane, which usually ends in disintegration (though who gets disintegrated varies).

* He is currently making a [[Main/GambitRoulette complex bid]] for both [[Pantheon/{{Mentalism}} Light Yagami's]] and [[Pantheon/MainHouse Kyon's]] positions. This will probably involve really stupid outfits and talking heads.
* Prophesies that Main/TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt scenario will be as follows: There shall be a great battle between Pantheons, but one scream shall cause the end of all beings by disrupting the Master plan to preserve the universe... '''[[Main/LeeroyJenkins LEEROOOOOYYY!!! JEEEEEENKIIIINS!!]]''' "Oh well. At least he's got chicken", Dominic sighed and [[Main/FacePalm pressed his hand against his forehead]].

* Ascended after ending a war by leading the UPSF's forces to victory against the Raalgons in an epic confrontation with absolutely no casualties. On ''either'' side. The rest of the pantheon is utterly befuddled as to whether this was a feat of brilliant planning or an ungodly stroke of dumb luck.
* Since ascending, there have been exactly 3,297 attempts on his life by other deities vying for his position. All of them have failed, most of which Tylor was -- and probably still is-- entirely oblivious to.

'''[[Anime/YuGiOhGX Saiou Takuma]], God of [[Main/DarkMessiah Dark Messiahs]]''' (Sartorius)

'''[[Main/{{Gunnm}} Desty Nova]], God of Karma'''
* Demigod
* Symbol: A plate of flan
* Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
* Portfolio: Main/{{Nanomachines}}, [[Main/MagnificentBastard Uncannily Admirable Villainy]], [[Main/EvilLaugh KYA HA HA HA HA HA]], [[Main/MadScientist Mad Scientists]], [[Main/MyDeathisJusttheBeginning Technical Immortality]]
* Domains: Madness, Freedom, Mentalism
* Followers: [[Main/TheVamp Eelai]]
* Discoverer and foremost (albeit only) expert on Karmatron Dynamics, the science of [[Main/ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin karma]]. On a micro scale, it allows encoding information in even seemingly random molecular motion (order in entropy) and nullification of teleportation's [[Main/CloningBlues Alias problem]]. On a macro scale, it is nothing less than the methodical study and control of destiny itself.
* Technically has not ascended, but through [[Main/AppliedPhlebotinum his advanced nanomachines and grasp of Karmatron Dynamics]], has become the closest thing to immortal that a human can attain.
* Has many sides to his personality. The other gods tend to steer clear of him, as he can be alternately [[Main/ThePhilosopher introspective]], [[Main/AxCrazy frothingly insane]], and [[Main/BunnyEarsLawyer amusingly quirky]], sometimes one right after the other or all at once. Most often, though, he is [[Main/TheChessmaster deviously dangerous]], more so than most because so few people have any clue what he's up to.

'''[[Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda Link]], God of Diversified Weaponry''' (The Hero of Time, Hero of the Winds, Grasshopper)
* Lesser God
* Symbol: The Triforce
* Alignment: Varying with each incarnation, but always good.
* Portfolio: Main/{{Ancestral Weapon}}s, Main/ArrowsOnFire, Main/ChainOfDeals, Main/{{Cosmic Keystone}}s, Main/{{Fetch Quest}}s, Main/{{Reincarnation}}, [[HeroicMime Wordlessness]]
* Domains: Courage, Strength, Time, War
* Does double duty, also being a member of the Pantheon/{{Weapons}} pantheon.
* Destined to reincarnate in an endless cycle for as long as there is evil. Has to build up all of his skills and weapons every time, but, fortunately for any [[ThereAreNoTherapists Hylian therapists]], [[NightmareFuel does not retain memory of past lives]]. Every time he is reborn, dies, and ends up in the Pantheon, he's surprised to find out about his godhood. Every time.
* Subject to an equally endless line of prophecies, most of which only apply to one lifespan each.
* The other Prophecy Gods let him in to this house to do their errands. When it comes to [[MacGuffinDeliveryService MacGuffin Delivery Services]], ''particularly'' matched sets, you can't hire much better than Link. And he can get a bottle of milk from the cow to the god paying in two minutes flat, or it's free.
* Needless to say, with all of this reincarnation going on, he is pretty much [[Pantheon/LifeAndDeath Virtuous']] bitch.

'''[[{{Foundation}} Hari Seldon]], God of [[GoodWithNumbers Mathematics]]'''
* Greater God
* Alignment: OmniscientMoralityLicense
* Symbol: Scientific Calculator, Time Vault
* Portfolio: AncientConspiracy, TheChessmaster, OmniscientMoralityLicense
* Domain: Science, Math, Prediction
* Followers: the Foundations, [[{{Gundam00}} Aeolia Schenberg]]
* Allies: [[Series/StargateSG1 Samantha Carter]]
* Actually moved on centuries ago, but he predicted every possible event that his presence would be needed for and left a series of videotapes labeled with a date and time of when to play them, which function more or less exactly as his actual presence would.

'''[[LegacyOfKain Kain and Raziel]], Gods of [[ScrewDestiny Changing Destiny]]'''
[[quoteright:319:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Legacyofkain.jpg]]
* Lesser Gods
* Alignment: LawfulNeutral (Kain), ChaoticNeutral (Raziel)
* Symbol: The material and spectral Soul Reavers crossed over each other.
* Shared Portfolio: [[ScrewDestiny Changing fate]], [[YouCantFightFate failing to change fate]], {{Prophecy Twist}}s, [[BackFromTheDead Resurrection]] ([[DeathIsCheap multiple times]]), [[BlackAndGrayMorality Moral Ambiguity]]
** Exclusive to Kain: XanatosSpeedChess, GambitRoulette, {{Sadistic Choice}}s, [[TakeAThirdOption Taking A Third Option]], [[HeadsTailsEdge Coin Metaphors]].
** Exclusive to Raziel: [[SpannerInTheWorks Plan-disrupting heroes]], [[ImmuneToFate Immunity To Fate]], [[UnwittingPawn accidentally]] [[NiceJobBreakingItHero assisting villains]], {{Cosmic Plaything}}s.
* Domain: Destiny, Prophecy, Time Travel, Morality
* When the final battle of Good and Evil occurs, no one is sure what these two will do. Kain has said he'll do what best benefits him, but with the way his mind works it's hard to say if he'll be siding with either Cosmos or Melkor or will try to go it alone. Raziel meanwhile has pledged to fight for good, but he's very prone to manipulation and making hasty decisions, and by his nature as a walking TemporalParadox that disrupts the timestream with his presense, the chaos he sews in his wake could benefit either side unwillingly.
* Though they parted on good terms, since the two ascended to the Trope Pantheon Kain has passed the time by occasionally opening time portals and throwing Raziel into a random point in history for kicks. He then watches Raziel stumble his way back to the present without realizing how much and how often he's changing history without knowing it. Their relationship has gone south again once this happened the second time.
* Because Kain is such a {{Jerkass}} and is the one responsible for killing Raziel, the two have difficulty trusting each other. But they're GenreSavvy enough to ignore people who try to make them into full enemies again, as they realize their respective versions of the [[SwordOfPlotAdvancement Soul Reaver]] are among the few weapons that can kill the other for good, and they recognize the two of them are NotSoDifferent. It is said that if the two of them were to combine the Soul Reaver back together to create the blade at its highest form of power, [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu even their fellow gods should be wary]].

'''[[MiraiNikki Yukiteru Amano and Minene Uryu]], co-gods of [[ScryvsScry Inter-Oracular Combat]]''' (1st[[hottip:*:Yukiteru]], and 9th[[hottip:*:Minene]])
* Lesser God, and Demigoddess respectively. Uryu rises to Intermediate Goddess when [[spoiler: she is saved and empowered by the dying Deus.]]
* Symbol: Cellphones
* Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
* Portfolio: Both: [[{{Seers}} Predicting The Future]] and [[ScrewDestiny Changing It]], [[spoiler:[[TimeTravel Travelling Back In Time]]]]
** Yukiteru: [[EasilyForgiven Forgiveness]], [[KidWithTheLeash Able To Keep Yuno From Killing]], AntiHero, [[NonActionGuy Not Often Fighting]]
** Minene: [[ThrowDownTheBomblet Grenade Throwing]], [[BrokenBird Dealing With Emotional Traumas]], [[CrazySurvivalist Survivalism]], [[SatisfiedStreetRat Fending For Oneself From A Young Age]], [[ByronicHero Byronic Heroines]], [[SociopathicHero Sociopathic Heroines]], [[SlasherSmile]], [[ElegantGothicLolita Gothic Fashion]], [[spoiler: [[HeelFaceTurn Redemption]] [[LoveRedeems Through Love]]]]
* Domains: Survival
* Allies: Yuno to Yukiteru, [[spoiler:Nishijima for Minene]]
* Enemies: [[MiraiNikki The other diary holders]]
* Originally Yukiteru alone was supposed to have this position but due to a certain pink haired Yandere keeping him at the Love house so often. As a result he's always out of the house. His way of resolving this was to give part of the position to someone else more available and he decided it would be Minene, as a form of apology for [[EyeScream blinding her in one eye]].
