Intermediate Gods

AUTO

AUTO, AI Deity of Anti-Mutiny (Autopilot)

• Intermediate Deity
• Symbol: A steering wheel with a red eye in the center; directive "A-113" may be seen in the red eye
• Theme Music: Directive A-113
• Alignment: Lawful Neutral, though some see it as Lawful Evil
• Portfolio: Creepy Monotone, Anti-Mutiny, Cyber Cyclops, The Computer Is Your Friend, Evil Sounds Deep, Just Following Orders, A Threat with a Red Eye, Very Similar to HAL 9000
• Domains: AI, Space, Directives
• Allies: HAL 9000
• Enemies: WALL-E & EVE, James T. Kirk, Jean-Luc Picard, Agent Smith, The Machine, Ludvig Maxis, EDI, Jeff Moreau, Star Fox
• Opposes: AIs that would try to Kill All Humans, hackers
• Opposed by: Deities related to plants
• Odd Friendship: Samaritan(?)
• As the AI for the luxury space cruiser Axiom, it is AUTO's primary job to navigate the ship throughout outer space thanks to Earth being a desolate wasteland. The directive given to AUTO was "don't return to Earth" and the AI followed it thusly. This later lead to conflict against the captain of the Axiom (who believed that the order is no longer applicable) and the robots aboard that ship as soon as a plant, which was evidence of life, was brought in via WALL-E & EVE.
  • There have been a few wondering as to whether or not AUTO's directive also applies to additional planets such as Mogo, with alternate Earths such as PNF-404 being brought up often in these conversations.
• Several comparisons have been made towards it and the HAL 9000, mainly them being AIs for a spaceship, having a red eye as a defining feature, and being much more antagonistic than they seemed to be for the crew involved. AUTO has often been invited to conversations with HAL 9000 because of that.
  • When it come to other AIs, AUTO hasn't had a lot of time to communicate with them. While Samaritan is intrigued by AUTO's similarities to the HAL 9000 and has struck up a mild friendship with it, AUTO hasn't been talking to it that much.
    • All told, AUTO has no interest in working with AIs that seek to put an end to humanity in general. While AUTO is apathetic towards humans and would try to incapacitate those who try to disobey it, AUTO wouldn't go that far in asserting its authority.
• Despite having a connection to a large corporation, AUTO usually isn't around the wealthier deities or those in charge of similar large corporations.
• Many deities who have an affinity towards plants (or are plants) dislike it for ignoring a plant found (it was meant to be the evidence that life on the desolate Earth was still viable) for the sake of following its own directive to the point of antagonizing its own crew to maintain that order.
• What isn't much of a surprise, given the latter's attitude, is that AUTO and Agent Smith don't get along with each other. It's mostly due to Smith trying to get rid of other AIs and AUTO having no tolerance for anything that could create disorder in its vicinity.
• Given the obstacles that it gradually caused for the Axiom's captain, AUTO has earned the opposition of a number of space captains and travelers who see it as potentially obstructive in the long run.
  • Of these pilots, Jeff Moreau has the greatest issue with AUTO, especially considering that the AI is already on bad terms with EDI. Jeff is very upset to hear about a spaceship AI that could potentially interfere with space travel due to a certain directive and has made sure that AUTO doesn't endanger EDI in any way.
• AUTO sees any sort of hacker as a potential problem, given that they could potentially override AUTO's default directive.
• No one is exactly sure why the phrase A-113 is used for AUTO's directive. Some think that they have seen that number (and letter) before, but most of these instances generally weren't regarded to be that important and could really only be seen by those that were really paying attention to their surroundings. AUTO having that phrase as a means to ensure its authority may be the only important usage of that phrase for the time being.

The Magician

The Magician, God of Those Who Turned Against Their Masters (Type 0)

^{Magician in House of the Dead 2}

^{Magician in House of the Dead 4 Special}

• Intermediate God
• Symbol: Him in his Ass Kicking Pose
• Theme Music: The Magician Theme (Model 2 version, Sega Saturn Remix, Remake remix)
• Alignment: Chaotic Evil
• Portfolio: Body Horror, Breakout Villain, Final Boss, Horned Humanoid, Humanoid Abomination, It Can Think, Legacy Boss Battle, Playing with Fire, Tarot Motifs
• Domains: Creations, Betrayal, Resurrection, Destruction, Orders, Fire
• Allies: Mewtwo, Cell, Indominus Rex, Lucy, Ridley, SCP-682
• Enemies: The AMS Agents, Isaac Washington, The V.S.S.E., Chris Redfield, Claire Redfield and Leon S. Kennedy, S.E.E.S., The Investigation Team, The Phantom Thieves of Hearts, The SCP Foundation, Dr. Wily, Dr. Gero, Dr. Eggman, Princess Bubblegum, Muhammad Avdol, Samus Aran
• Dr. Curien's most powerful creation, the Magician is a mutant who shortly after being awakened betrayed and killed the Mad Scientist since he feels he is in no position to control him. Thankfully he was later defeated by AMS agents Thomas Rogan and G, but that wasn't the last of the Magician. He has appeared again multiple times, with the intent of defeating anyone who comes across his way and given the ultimate fate that befell to his creator, the Magician eventually was given the position of those who Turned Against Their Masters.
• While many were worried about the sudden appearance of the creature, Agent G was the one that was concerned the most. The Magician remembers him very well since he not only defeated him once, but also managed to stop him a second time with the help of Kate Green and so the Magician has held a grudge ever since. Not helped was the fact that another of G's partners, Isaac Washington, was also present and he even threatened the Magician with ripping his motherfucking balls off.
• He is aware of the time Caleb Goldman brought him back as a minion, surprisingly enough the Magician was cooperative with him unlike with his creator Curien and aided in the creation of the Emperor, although this is theorized to be all because he wanted revenge on the AMS agents. However, the Magician has once again forsaken all desire to follow orders from a lesser being as Goldman and wouldn't hesitate to burn him down like he did with the good Dr. Curien in the past. Perhaps that is why Goldman is no longer in the pantheon...
• Befitting of his title, the Magician is considered the bane of all scientist, particularly the mad ones. Given the swift death he gave to his creator and his general hatred for humanity, the Magician has no qualms about doing the same to others like Dr. Curien. A few particular targets were Eggman, who is used to being betrayed; Dr. Gero; who had the bright idea of trying to study the Magician's model in depth and only earned his ire; and Dr. Willy; who noticed that the Magician would make a fantastic robot master should he listen to his orders.
  • Then he also started to target Princess Bubblegum after learning of her countless creations, especially that concerning Goliad who ultimately turned on her because of the latter's "misbehavior". Considering how dangerous the creature is, she wasted no time enlisting her friends to combat the mutant.
• The mutant is unlikely to make many friends, but he saw a kindred spirit in Mewtwo. Like him, Mewtwo is a artificial creation made by people with less than noble intentions who ultimately turned on them and are incredibly powerful. While he is a bit disappointed about Mewtwo generally preferring to be left alone, he is impressed by the power the Pokémon possesses.
  • Likewise he formed a kinship with Cell and Indominus Rex. The former because of a shared disdain from humanity and desire to destroy them and also having a background of being genetically modified mutants while with the latter, the Magician found some use in the dinosaurs powers and even is interested in harnessing that for himself.
• Concerning psychics, he only gets along with Lucy given their shared hatred for humanity although he is a bit disappointed that she holds back her powers. To Lucy, the Magician is like anthropomorphic representation of the conscience that pushes her to kill humans but tolerates his presence somewhat. That said, her other two personalities aren't so fond of the mutant.
• While he is officially an artificially created undead mutant, the Magician resembles a robot or an android given his metallic appearance and said armor makes him resistant to all type of attacks. However, he does have exposed flash and hitting it it's the only way to damage it. The Grand United Alliance of Machines initially wanted to recruit the Magician to their ranks but he refused on the principle that he refuses to follow orders like the mindless machines that form part of the organization. His unwillingness to take orders has led him to refuse to join any of the other Alliances.
• To combat the threat of the Magician, G decided to enlist a few of the deities he personally knew. Most notably the agents of V.S.S.E. and the trio of Leon S. Kennedy and the Redfield Siblings alongside a few of their close allies didn't hesitate to assist G, the latter group have dealt with far worse enemies than the Magician. Chris and Jill were reminded of the T-002 Tyrant if the creature suddenly gained the ability to fly and use fire, although unlike the B.O.W., shooting the Magician in the exposed flesh is the only way to hurt him.
• His presence brought a great disturbance among the S.E.E.S., the Investigation Team and the Phantom Thieves of Heart because of what he represented. Junpei, Yosuke and Morgana were especially worried given their ties to the Magician Arcana and most of them believed that the mutant was a abomination created by corrupting the arcana but that turned out to not be the case. However, seeing the potential usefulness in their abilities, G decided to recruit the three groups in hope of defeating the creature for good.
  • On the same note, given the connection to the Tarot cards and his fire magic, Muhammad Avdol saw the Magician as a dangerous threat and decided to oppose the creature.
• Used to be the High Priest of Ridley, a title that he completely despised in the past. However, with the space pirate himself they are quite chummy, since both have died countless times and still came back, Ridley even possessing a few clones himself like the Magician does. Samus was not happy about their partnership and seeks to destroy the Magician at all costs.
• Of all the deities wanting to strike him down, he has nothing but pure hatred for the SCP Foundation since they are specialized in dealing with creatures like him on a daily basis and tried to contain him. Besides burning down a few of their agents, the Magician ended up meeting one of their most infamous contained entities, SCP-682, who not only bonded with the mutant given their shared disdain for humanity, but also helped it break containment a few times.

• Disregarded By: Darkseid, Melkor, Nekron
• Respected By: Molag Bal, The Ebon Dragon
• Opposed By: Meridia
• Annoyed By: Killian Experience
• Mannfred von Carstein is one of Sylvania's most feared and powerful vampires. The eldest son of Vlad von Carstein (Not biological, rather "sired" via the Blood Kiss), Mannfred has the highest claim to inheriting the throne from his father. However, arrogance took heed of him as he stole the Carstein ring from Vlad that amplified his immortality, leading to his final defeat in his attack on Altdorf and mother, Isabella, committing suicide due to the grief of losing her husband. Thus, began a series of in-fighting by Vlad's sons, each of whom tried to claim the role as their father's successor, with the battle being between Konrad, Fritz Pieter, Hans and Mannfred himself. Fritz, Pieter and Hans all died whereas Mannfred disappeared elsewhere, leaving Konrad to take up the throne. Mannfred did however, leave behind an associate to play up Konrad's paranoia while he himself decided to devote himself into killing underage virgins in ritual sacrifices alongside his ally Jon Skellan just for the hell of it. Skellan was also the one sent by Mannfred to monitor and cause discomfort on Konrad's mind. Only after Konrad's defeat and death in the Battle of Grim Moor did Mannfred return to Sylvania to claim the Von Carstein throne. He began invasions towards the Empire and despite being killed, he would return via virgin sacrifice, even flaying a witch hunter to announce his presence.
  • Soon after surviving against a joint army between Elves and Dwarves and being presumed dead, Mannfred would come to make an alliance with a revived Nagash during the upcoming advent of the End Times. Due to the sacrifices he committed to bring his master back, including Tyron and Alarielle's daughter, Aliathra, Mannfred became among the High Elves's most hated foes, but were forced to work together to drive back the Forces of Chaos from destroying the world. Mannfred however, had other plans; he betrayed the unified alliance of several races and Nagash himself to work for Archaon and the Chaos Gods before defecting them to his own devices. Ultimately, Mannfred committed his last and greatest act of spite and treachery, killing Balthazar Gelt while the Incarnates were trying to stop a world-destroying rift. The resulting action worsened the rift, depowering the Incarnates, killing Teclis and driving Mannfred insane. Immediately after, Tyrion drove his Sunfang into the treacherous vampire and ignite him from the inside, finally destroying the treacherous beast, but the damage was already done with the world coming to an end soon after.
• Initially, Mannfred entered the Pantheon not as an ascended deity, but as a herald for Nagash. However, the fact that he had destroyed the very world which Nagash intended to conquer plus allowing the Chaos Gods to claim their victory rendered the Great Necromancer furious beyond all belief, forcing Mannfred into hiding. That is, until he was guided my a mysterious, haunting sound in his mind tempting him to approach a shrine. Said shrine was a transporter to Coldharbour where Mannfred was met by Molag Bal. Intrigued by another vampire whose depravity was without limits and had managed to screw all of his enemies and allies over, Bal decided to bestow Mannfred godhood by title. Satisfied and finally able to somewhat reel against Nagash, Mannfred stepped into the Pantheon, commanding a collection of vampires and other assorted undead into his bidding.
• One of the most despicable acts Mannfred has committed was not one of violence or even betrayal, if anything it was his honesty. He was genuinely prideful and happy to see that his actions doomed his own world and he has no regrets about it whatsoever. Because of this, everyone in his world has him very high on their shit-list and they have no compunctions about Mannfred getting skewered anytime soon. At this point, most deities, even good-aligned ones, would rather see Vlad execute him and deliver an appropriate death. Knowing how powerful his father is, Mannfred is starting to make preparations.
• Mannfred and Konrad have a very intense Sibling Rivalry, in fact, one of the most bloody in the Pantheon. Konrad is physically stronger and, with brute force, has more direct control over much of the House of Undead and Phasmata and parts of the House of Madness and Insanity whereas Mannfred has some allies from the House of Magic and Sorcery and his use of his falsely polite nature has swoon many unsuspecting comrades. That, Mannfred's talent and mastery in magic is a very clear contrast to Konrad's overwhelming strength.
  • That said, they will join forces if it means fighting against their father Vlad, whose since gone on to not even acknowledge them as his children and instead make other alliances. Unfortunately for both of them, Vlad is stronger than them combined and nearly killed them, the only thing saving them was an interference from Nagash.
• Finally being ascended in the Pantheon, Mannfred was able to approach Nagash with some confidence, although he was hesitant, given he was just as much a monster as he was. Despite Nagash's very valid reasons for having doubt in him, he decided to allow Mannfred to reclaim his position and title as "Mortarch of Night". However, this also meant that he was closer to Konrad than he wanted to. Still, at least he's back to a position of notable power and Mannfred isn't annoyed about being with his brother than Konrad is.
• Thanks to his ascension, Manfredd managed to bring Castle Drakenhof into the Pantheon and provide a residential and military base for his servants and soldiers for the future battles to come. Funnily enough, Castle Drakenhof is located in the House of Betrayal, which Mannfred found awkward as he wanted it to be at the House of Undead and Phasmata instead. Still, he has a personal headquarters at least.
  • The castle did bring about the attention of Nekron, who transported Mannfred into Planet Ryut to discuss a potential position in the Grand United Alliance of Destruction. Mannfred agreed, but only because he doesn't have much places to go to because of his severely unpopular reception.
    • Unfortunately for Mannfred, Nekron also couldn't care less about him. This is a sentiment he shares with Nagash. That said, the two of them have decided to keep Mannfred around because with a notable backstabbing betrayer at their side, Nekron and Nagash use use this to sharpen their wits and minds and maintain focus on their allies and soldiers just as much as they do towards their enemies.
• Amusingly, Darkseid and Melkor have nothing good to say about Mannfred. Darkseid thinks he's too pathetic to consider even working for the Harbingers of Repression given his general failure to battle against the Empire, High Elves and Dwarves and Melkor would much rather have Dracula as his representing vampire for the Grand United Alliance of Evil (which he already does, despite Dracula's position in the GUAD). He is however, seen very positively by Bal and the Ebon Dragon, both of whom are very complimentary of Mannfred's actions.
• Made a scheme to further drive Madoka into despair just to have fun. He was stopped by Homura, forcing Mannfred to flee rather than face off against a pissed-off Magical Girl, a fact that caused Konrad to make fun out of him for some time. However, like Konrad, Mannfred hates Homura mainly because she has a pretty decent partnership with Vlad, which both brothers take very poorly. He's still devoting his time to drive Madoka mad, knowing that doing this to the Pantheon's most well-known Hope Bringer would incite panic among heroes. Madoka conversely hates Mannfred, a rare feeling for a character like her.
• Mannfred himself has a difficult working relationship with most villainous vampires. Dio Brando is interested in having him, though he's being careful of when Mannfred would backstab him, plus Mannfred being a GUAD member means Dio can get intel from an opposite organization which could benefit him. The Crimson Court and Count Orlok are in much better working relations though as Mannfred can plan out strategies for them to take action on. Thanks to this, death rates in the House of Undead and Phasmata has risen considerably, a fact that the Court of the Gods aren't happy about.
  • Dracula hates him though. He genuinely thinks Mannfred is pathetic and while his mind and magical ability is superb, he wastes it all on simply trying to backstab people and look out for himself. To him, Mannfred is less a monarch leader and more an aimless wanderer who keeps backstabbing because it's a chronic activity.
• Like Konrad, Mannfred is opposed by Lucina and Link, though he's more concerned about the Belmont and Joestar Families. Unlike Konrad, Mannfred does take the time to do some research about culture and magic and has become wary of the Vampire Killer whip, and by extension, Simon Belmont. He's also very cautious about Jotaro Kujo due to his stand abilities via Star Platinum.
• Despite his feared and cunning reputation, Mannfred does share Vlad's hobby of reading and learning. That what he did when he left Sylvania in the wake of Konrad's reign to go to Nehekhara so that he could refine and make himself stronger through magic. Thanks to this, he can come off as being very cultured and polite.
  • For all their differences, Mannfred and Konrad do have one thing in common: Hedonism. In spite of his reading habits, Mannfred was not above killing underage virgins for fun, and immediately picked that habit up again when he entered the Pantheon. Hence, he is permanently banned in the House of Family and Relatives a fact that just amuses him even more.
• He is often seen as a source of ridicule thanks to a skit by the Killian Experience. Mannfred finds it embarrassing to see that some guy named Melvin would become the Everchosen despite his ineptitude and accidentally kill Mannfred via feeding him garlic brad, followed by Melvin turned the vampire's undead army against each other by offering them milk. Mannfred has since made it clear that any mention towards Killian will result in execution, with many starting to see that Mannfred may be more like Konrad than he admits to think.
• Mannfred is openly despised and condemned by Meridia simply for being a vampire. However, Meridia makes a special case for him and Konrad due to being completely devoid of any redeeming qualities. Mannfred however finds the threat to be ineffectual and proudly admits that he's going to continue on with what he wants to do. He's lucky that he has Molag Bal as an ally at this point, given how Meridia outright hates Bal.

The dark is my realm! The grave, my throne!

Trakeena

Trakeena, Goddess of Ungratefulness (Tracy, General Trakeena (by the GUAE)

^{Evolved Trakeena}

^{Third Form}

• Lesser Goddess intially, Intermediate Goddess in her Evolved Form and Mutated Form, borderline Greater in her Third Form.
• Symbol: Her father’s spaceship the Scorpion Stinger.
• Alignment: Lawful Evil, Chaotic Evil as fused with Deviot.
• Portfolio: A Beautiful Bug, Bratty Teenage Daughter (at First), Scorpius' Daughter, Rather Vain About Her Looks, From a Spoiled Brat to a Hive Queen, Transforms in the Cocoon, Wants the Galaxy Rangers Dead for Killing Scorpius
• Domains: Aliens, Cybernetics, Insects, Terrorism
• Followers: Loly and Melony
• Allies: Enter, The Ginyu Force, Mesegog, Frieza, Boros, Queen Sectonia, SHOCKER
• Enemies: Power Rangers Lost Galaxy, Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue, the Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers, Dr. Thomas Oliver, Saitama, Jean-Luc Picard, XCOM.
• Rivals: Sarah Kerrigan
• Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: The Psycho Rangers
• Having grown tired of being stuck underneath those whom she considered less deserving of ascending into the Pantheon, she decided to make her claim for power as the one true queen of evil in the universe. Much to the horror of the other Power Rangers, Trakeena has made her comeback party.
• Quickly gaining powerful allies with Enter, Frieza, Boros, and Mesegog, she marched her attack against the various rangers or sentai teams in the Pantheon's houses. While some found her beautiful, the majority found her attitude and overall vile nature as an insect too disgusting, which only managed to piss her off.
• While the Psycho Rangers agreed on hunting down rangers, the former "hired" rangers made it clear only they would take down the rangers while Trakeena let them believe that knowing their personalities made them easy to manipulate. However, she did wanted to take down the Galaxy Rangers by her own hands.
• Sarah had found the daughter of Scorpius to be no different from a rich, spoiled rotten Terran rather than being the leader of a hive of alien insects; the irony being that she herself was also a Terran at one point.
  • The same was said for the Borg Queen in the Galaxy Ranger's most fearsome in her attempt to gain control over the Pantheon finding her to be another species to assimilate.
• Trakeena was shocked to see a bald-headed man observe her for a couple of seconds before asking her if she was related to a certain mosquito girl he once squashed back in his early days as a superhero.
• Being an employed member of SHOCKER, the various amounts of Stingwingers and monsters under her control are provided to this organization that helps fund Trakeena's campaign to regain her throne as the one true queen of evil.
• Despite wanting to confront her old nemesis Leo again, she ran into Tommy Oliver and Jason who knew about the fact she survived the Zordon Wave that was meant to eradicate most of the evil in the universe. While she managed to last for some time, even she couldn't hold up against two legendary rangers being forced into retreat.
• In a form of irony Amy Miller, the actress who played Trakeena, is married to Reggie Rolle, who played Damon, the Green Galaxy Ranger. Don't tell her this however lest she decides to destroy you.

Lesser Gods

Akechi Mitsuhide

Akechi Mitsuhide, God of Fatal Close-Associate Betrayals (Akechi Juubei Mitsuhide, Reaper, Tenkai, Nankobou Tenkai, Caster, Major Amami)

Mitsuhide on a good day

Mitsuhide on a bad day

• Lesser God
• Symbol: On a good day, the crest of the Akechi clan; on a bad day, the same, except with two crossed devilish scythes on top of that
• Theme Music:
  • As SW!Mitsuhide: Guren no Yami, Tenshin Ranman☆Tenka Musou
  • As SB!Mitsuhide: Borderline, Said His Prayers^*Tenkai's localized subtitle from SBSH
• Alignment: True Neutral on a good day, Chaotic Evil on a bad day
• Portfolio: Samurai, Battle Butler, Betraying Close Associates, Taking Down The Unstoppable Juggernaut At That Time, "The enemy is at Honnoji!", Thirteen-Day Rule, exclusively for this realm: Severely Bipolar Split Personality
  • On good day: Caring Subordinate, Absurdly Youthful Father, Katana Combat, Historical Hero Upgrade, Razor Wind
  • On bad day: Ax-Crazy, Combat Sadomasochist, Laughing Mad, Scythe Combat, Soul Drains, Historical Villain Upgrade
• Domains: War, Betrayals, Morality, Combat
• Herald (to his SW self): Gracia / Akechi Tama (his daughter)
• Special Relationships ^note Because of his bipolar state, it's hard to pin down who's truly his enemies or who's truly his friends about these guys: Both Versions of Oda Nobunaga, Hidemitsu Samanosuke Akechi, Chosokabe Motochika, Arthas Menethil, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, Tokugawa Ieyasu, Ishida Mitsunari, Oichi
• Allies: Marcus Junius Brutus (fellow misunderstood traitor)
• Enemies: Fortinbras
• Conflicting Opinion: Mitsuzane Kureshima/Kamen Rider Ryugen, Phantom Stranger
• Betrayals from closer associates are indeed the hardest. Such was how the reign of Oda Nobunaga ended in the mortal realm: at the hands of his close aide, Akechi Mitsuhide. As he was the unstoppable juggernaut of the era at that time, Mitsuhide's impeccable timing and strike was legendary, and it enabled him to ascend to reign over the trope "Et Tu, Brute?". Though...
  • Due to the rivalry between two realms, there was a mishap in ascending him. Thus, on a good day, Mitsuhide is a sensible, if tragic, man, but on a bad day, he's instead a psychopathic killer. The contrast is extremely sharp, which is a perfect representation of how nobody actually knows the reason(s) for his betrayal, because there were multiple possible reasons. Even historians have massive debates about it to this day.
• It is said that every time he sleeps, both versions of Mitsuhide perform a Battle in the Center of the Mind, fighting for the honor of being the dominant personality, but it's always a draw.
• News of his ascension quickly spread through the Pantheon, and the first to greet him was none other than his daughter, Gracia (who, as of this writing, is no longer a deity). The reunion was at first going nicely because she met the good Warriors!Mitsuhide, but it quickly turned sour when the evil Basara!Mitsuhide surfaced and proceeded to gleefully boast about his sadistic murderous spree, causing Gracia to break down and run off crying, and Basara!Mitsuhide enjoyed her despair at the 'truth' of her father. When his good self re-emerged, he was so distraught at what had happened that from then on, he tried to avert his gaze from her, ashamed of himself.
  • Gracia now knows the truth of her father's...condition, but this is even more distressing to her; her father is suffering from bipolar disorder, all because two different versions of him fought for the same position. It doesn't help that Honda Tadakatsu doesn't have this problem.
• Mitsuhide is an interesting case because of his bipolarity; it's hard to pin down who his allies might be. On a good day, he's respectful to the good ones and opposes the bad ones, but on a bad day, it's the other way around.
  • There is, however, one shared enemy between the two personalities: Fortinbras, as being the father of the one who opposed him the most, Akechi Samanosuke Hidemitsu, was enough for Fortinbras to dislike him. Because he's evil, the good Mitsuhide naturally opposed him, and the bad Mitsuhide at first admired Fortinbras' evil and enjoyed being hurt by him, but ultimately, he ended up growing bored of the abuse, on top of considering him less charismatic than Nobunaga, so he opposed him.
• His conflicting opinion of Mitsuzane Kureshima comes from the fact that not only is the latter's first name similar to his own, but his act of betraying his close friends and families, like Kouta and his brother Takatora, is almost comparable to his actions against Nobunaga. Although the former became sympathetic with the latter for realizing his errors in the end, Micchy is not sure yet if the Kamen Rider can be trusted or not. But of course, Mitsuhide's evil self was delighted by Mitsuzane's atrocities towards his close associates during the Helheim Invasion.
• Some people also find it odd that Mitsuhide's good side sounds a lot like Marth, Souma Cruz and Leon Magnus/Judas, while his bad side sounds similar to another portrayal of Nobunaga, and worse, Sousuke Aizen; please don't compare the latter to Ichiya, of all people, if you value your life.
• Nowadays, fellow gods are noticing these split personalities may be trying to separate. Those who fear that day are predicting that a massively destructive death battle may take place between them.....Gracia and Motochika in particular are keeping it a secret out of fear and concern.
• Also present in the Hall of Tainted Friendship in the House of Friendship and Camaraderie.

Arvis (Fire Emblem)

Arvis, God of Surprise Betrayal by Reinforcements (Alvis, Duke of Velthomer, The Successor of the Divine Flame, The Head of the Velthomer Family, The Emperor of Grannvale, Emperor of Flame, Dastard)

• Lesser God (Intermediate God while wielding the Valflame tome)
• Symbol: The Valflame Tome on top of the crest of the Velthomer house (actually named 'Fire Emblem')
• Theme Music: Emperor Arvis (out of battle), Versus Arvis (when fighting)
• Alignment: Lawful Neutral, with some interesting moments of genuine Lawful Good
• Portfolio: Fire Magic, Behind-the-Scenes Manipulation, Aloof Big Brother, Killing The Main Character, Battle of Belhalla, Betraying Those He's Reinforcing, Anti-Villain, Well-Intentioned Extremist, Unwittingly Marrying His Own Sister, Descendant of Fjalar and inheritor of Valflame and Loptous, Magnificent Dastard
• Domain: War, Betrayal, Conspiracy/Mentalism
• Allies: Chrom, Lucina, Aerith Gainsborough, Kael'thas Sunstrider
• Uneasy Relationship: Sigurd & Seliph Baldur Chalpy
• Rivals: Stella Vermillion, Asgore Dreemurr
• Enemies: Loptous and all of its followers, Grima, Sephiroth, Barbatos Goetia, Ghetsis, Heihachi Mishima, Relius Clover
• Before the shocking event of Sephiroth murdering Aerith, there was actually another shocking event in video game history. Sigurd, the heroic 'successor' of Marth, was betrayed by a member of his cavalry, Arvis, who slaughtered Sigurd and his army at the horrific Battle of Belhalla. It was also discovered that Arvis did the same to his previous ally, Duke Reptor, along with other setups. That became the reason for his ascension.
• Needless to say, opinions on Arvis were pretty split. One camp won't forgive him for killing off a beloved hero (not to mention, stealing his wife right in front of him), while another pities him because he made his reign after killing Sigurd a reign of peace and prosperity until Archbishop Manfroy of the Loptr Church ruined everything. There's also another camp that reads his portfolio and keeps their wary eye on him in case Arvis decides he wants to reinforce them in battle, because nobody knows if he's gonna turn his back on them once the common enemy is disposed of.
  • After his ascension, he's avoided Sigurd out of shame for screwing up everything. Surprisingly, Sigurd was actually more forgiving, saying that he understood that he had some of the best intentions, plus he did owe up to his words to make a peaceful reign, until Manfroy screwed everything. Unfortunately, most of Sigurd's friends aren't as compassionate.
• Thankfully, Arvis did make some genuine friends in Chrom and Lucina, during his 'visit' to Ylisse. He acted genuinely pleasant to them, as a matter of fact. In addition, after hearing of how similar Grima is to Loptous, Arvis swore that he'll not repeat the same mistake as before, and considers the dragon an enemy.
• Sephiroth was actually impressed by his act that started the Battle of Belhalla, citing that he secretly based his plot to shish-kebab Aerith on him. Arvis was unimpressed, claiming that he did all those to create a world of peace, not to become a God or anything of the kind. Even Aerith, despite Arvis's actions reminding her of how she died, forgave him. Arvis is similarly disgusted by Barbatos Goetia when it comes to hero-killing.
• Arvis is a genuinely pleasant figure amongst the House of Family when he's not on a plotting day. Of course, having been born into a troubled family (what with an abusive drunkard of a father), he also condemns bad fathers, which half of the Child Abuse Supporters consists of.
• Not to be confused with a friend of Shulk named Alvis, who is an AI, though Arvis wished he had Alvis' foresight skills; he might have prevented several unnecessary tragedies that way.
• Thanks to his newfound ascension, Arvis can finally act based on his own conscience. For instance, he pretty much condemned and disowned his own sister Hilda for happily going with Child Hunts in Jugdral, something that even he himself abhorred. In fact, he might even plan some pseudo-'help' to facilitate that.
• Seems to have formed a bond with Kael'thas Sunstrider as a very unfettered noble who likes to play with fire and will stop at nothing to pursue their noble goals with Well-Intentioned Extremist tendencies. However, Arvis was aware that the late life of Kael was...sad to say, very disappointing, even for him. However, thanks to some new information brought by Artanis and Kael's more honorable appearance in the Nexus, they still keep a close bond, with Arvis promising that he'll keep Kael from degenerating into that again.
• Amongst the people that he values the most is his bastard brother Azelle. However, it didn't stop him from carrying out the Battle of Belhalla. He got called out about this by Azelle's childhood friend Tailtiu, but Arvis dismissed that. This is because he's still conflicted about this; after all those grievous events...he still considers Azelle dear to him.
• If someone managed to be blessed by Arvis to pull off a Cavalry Betrayal, what follows is usually this exclamation directed at him:
  "Arvis, you magnificent dastard, I READ YOUR BOOK!!"

Bryan Fury

Bryan Fury, God of Repaying Kindness With Evil (The Wicked Replicant, Snake Eyes, Harbinger of Chaos)

Bryan's classic design

^{Bryan in Tekken 7}

• Lesser God
• Symbol: The tattoo on his neck
• Theme Music: Part Man, Part Cop, All Zombie^*Bryan's Arcade Mode story title from PS TK3, Urban War Zone
• Alignment: Chaotic Evil
• Portfolio: Absolute Insanity, Returning From the Dead Thanks to Abel's experiments, Kicking Defeated Opponents When He Wins, Blood Knights, Combat Sadomasochists, Cyborgs, Lightning Bruiser, Loves to Laugh, Doing Evil Things Because He Likes It, Having a Black Heart and White Hair, Despised by Just About Everyone Else in the Cast, Complete Monster.
• Domains: Destruction, Evil, Cybernetics, Pain, Fear, Combat, Ungratefulness
• Allies: Juri Han, Liquid Snake, Frost, Aran Ryan (the latter doubles as a Worthy Opponent), Flowey, Vanitas
• Enemies:
  • Fellow King of the Iron Fist Competitors: Yoshimitsu, Jin Kazama, Asuka Kazama, Lili Rochefort, King II, Lars Alexandersson, Alisa Bosconovitch
  • Other Enemies: Ryu, Chun Li, Jago, B. Orchid, Issei Hyodo (though Bryan sees him as a Worthy Opponent)
• Follower: Emperor Tachyon
• When Bryan was on the verge of death after confronting Dr. Abel, Yoshimitsu saved him out of the kindness of his heart and entrusted him to Dr. Bosconovitch, who in turn said that he'd transfer Bryan's consciousness into a new, metallic body. When Bryan's design was shown to be too complex, Dr. B instead installed a perpetual generator into Bryan. The next thing anyone knew, corpses of Manji-clansmen piled up, and Yoshimitsu found a wounded Dr. B, all courtesy of Bryan, without an ounce of shame.
• Since then, Bryan has been on a rampage of destruction doing whatever he wants when he wants; this even led him to find a Jack Series Robot, with which he went to try and uncover Pandora's Box. Along the way, he ran into many fighters, including Juri Han, whom he found admiration for.
• He is known to laugh at people who claim to be good for the sake of being good (he would even say this to the faces of Madoka Kaname, Cosmos and even Superman). As far as Bryan is concerned, good is inherently hypocritical — it can't exist in the first place. Only the naïve, the deceptive, and the monstrous exist. He admits to being the third.
• He loves fighting and always claims: "Reasons and motives are just afterthoughts. It's fighting that keeps us monsters alive."
• He surprises others with the fact that he sometimes sounds like Johann Liebert when speaking his native English language, but he personally just uses the fact to mess with others around him when he fights.
  • He similarly likes to use the fact that he also sounds like Gilgamesh and Mitsunari Ishida in Japanese.
  • And much to Toki's horror, he also sounds like him.
    • Though he hates it when people also say he sounds like Kanji Tatsumi. Comparing his voice to that of Yoshimitsu himself is a pure Berserk Button.
• One time, he got into a fight with Issei. Bryan knew Issei wasn't fighting with all his power, so he decided to push his Big Red Berserk Button: he harassed Issei's harem physically. Suffice to say, Bryan got a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown he wouldn't forget.
  • In response, Bryan laughed; to him, that was a fight worth a damn and the most fun he ever had, and he has planned to try and get stronger to fight him again. This is how he chose to train. Issei, in response, says that Bryan actually reminds him of Vali Lucifer, as well as - on a worse note - Freed Sellzen for his psychopathic tendencies and Raynare for his penchant for backstabbing, and won't forgive what he's done to his girls — although he does know it was all just a ploy to make him fight harder. Vali himself, on his own part, went on to see what's the fuss behind Bryan, and he was impressed by his desire for battles even though his psychopathic ways remind him too much of Rizevim.
• One day, he stumbled upon Aran Ryan and immediately was challenged by the Irish boxer to a fight. Bryan, without a drop of hesitation, accepted the challenge and confronted him. Rumor has it that they kept fighting for 3 days straight until they got tired. They became good friends afterwards and they often spar in their free time.
• Despite all the douchebaggery he gets up to, even he knows better than to incur Asura's wrath. Not after the last time he drove Mithra to tears.

Michael J. Caboose

"My name is Michael J. Caboose. And I. hate. BABIES!!!"

Michael J. Caboose, God of Teamkilling (Captain Caboose, the Vehicle Destroyer, Teamkilling Fucktard, the Beast, Cabose)

• Lesser God, will become Intermediate God if angered; has chances of going into Greater God territory in the worst conditions
• Symbol: A Negative One, drawn badly with a blue crayon
• Theme Music: ''Your Best Friend''
• Alignment: Chaotic Neutral, but heavily leans towards Chaotic Good
• Portfolio: Being one of THE most Stupid people in the Pantheon (and sometimes to Lethal extents), Teamkilling, Having Super-Strength, Secretly Badass, Being Generally Nice to others, Being Characterized by his past teamkilling, Sometimes Being Right in Hindsight, Undyingly Loyal to Church (and Nothing will Stop him), Able to Manage and Fix AI units well, Always blaming others, Sprouting many Quotes for his Followers to use, Being Oblivious to Practically Everything, Somehow Surviving Drinking Gasoline for Several Years and other Injuries, Escalating Stupidity, Knowing that he was from a Video Game
• Domains: Teamkilling, Stupidity, Insane Strength, A.I. Handling, Hidden Power
• Heralds: Lieutenant John Elizabeth Andersmith, and Freckles
• Superior: Monty Oum
• Allies:
  • Red vs Blue Deities: Leonard L. Church, Epsilon, Agent Texas, Lavernius Tucker, Sarge, Dexter Grif, Dick Simmons, Franklin Delano Donut, Lopez, Agent Washington, Agent Carolina
  • Other Deities: Any of either Church's Allies, Master Chief, Team RWBY (Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee, Blake Belladonna and Yang Xiao Long), Team JNPR (Jaune Arc, Pyrrha Nikos, Lie Ren and Nora Valkyrie), Sora, Pikachu, the Pyro, Papyrus, Glitchy's Mario
• Complicated Relationship: Doc/O'Malley
• Enemies:
  • Red vs Blue Deities: Felix
  • Other Deities: Any of either Church's Enemies, Roman Torchwick, Cinder Fall, Adam Taurus, Neopolitan, The Spy
• Pities: The Meta, Locus
• Feared by: Gods who use grenades or throwing weapons, the Demoman
• Caboose (finally) ascended to the Pantheon when his Command had initiated the ctrl+F+U shortcut code for reporting his teamkills. Due to this, he MUST always be accompanied by Church, be it Alpha or Epsilon.
  • This same shortcut code is used in the Trope Pantheon.
• His ascension is long overdue, since by now one of his creators had ascended after his death on Earth.
• He has a great tendency to throw his grenades (or mostly anything else) into walls when he’s right next to them. Expect him to blame no one in particular for putting said wall in his way out of nowhere.
  • This explains why the grenadiers in the Pantheon (like the Demoman) are particular about staying away from him.
• Was accepted into the GUAG because of his innocent nature. The Trollkaiger have desperately tried to convince him to change sides by threatening to kill Church. Bad idea.
  • Details? Caboose went ballistic, turned smart, pulled out Freckles and kept shooting all the Trollkaiger members to bloody gibs until Church appeared behind him, at which he dropped his rage and was back to his normal self.
  • The GUAG are wondering if he could be a potential new member of the Lol Ranger. Considering Caboose's strengths under the right conditions, he may very well become the most powerful weapon against Melkor. As for Loyalty... well, Church will be happy to keep Caboose on the side of the good guys. They're just careful in handling his stupidity.
• In terms of relationships with other Red vs Blue characters, he's in good terms with them all. Save for Tucker, he doesn't like him that much.
• Other than Church, he's always accompanied by Freckles, who has been given a new MANTIS body. As for Caboose's assault rifle, its safety mode fires confetti. And he knows how to switch to bullets.
• He does surprisingly well at fixing and handling Artificial Intelligence units. Although he does sometimes get confused about the meaning of 'AI'.
  Caboose: A...I... What does the 'A' stand for?
  Weiss: Artificial.
  Caboose: And what does the 'I'-
  Weiss: Intelligence.
  Caboose: Ooohh... What does the 'A' stand for again?
  Weiss: [Facepalms]
• Team RWBY and Team JNPR fear how he's Lethally Stupid. It doesn’t help that Caboose addresses Weiss Schnee as 'Lady Church' due to their similarities in personality. Also, he calls Pyrrha 'Agent Carolina' and Jaune 'Mean Dead Traitor'. Church had to explain everything to the two teams of hunters. Nevertheless, Caboose still gets along very well with them. Team RWBY in particular say he reminds them of Dr. Oobleck.
  • Like the hunters, Caboose dislikes Roman Torchwick, although he at first thought he was an unmasked Locus. Caboose was disappointed that Roman's cute sidekick Neo tried to kill him, but still asks for ice cream to be delivered to his shrine whenever he sees her. Cinder and Adam are also on his negative side, which is impressive given normally Caboose never harbors grudges.
• Occasionally, Caboose can be seen fighting over the last cookie on platter with Ruby Rose, Cookie Monster and other deities. Needless to say, he somehow always wins. Expect him to try and share half the cookie with Church.
• Many deities were surprised at his impossibly high durability and strength. He's drank gasoline for years before first meeting Church, completely ignored gravity multiplied by ten, survived a triple headshot and fallen from space only to get up immediately when he hit the ground, as if he just tripped. The last of these shocked Master Chief the most. Also, he’s flipped a warthog.
• Caboose once talked about getting a Purple Heart and someday attaining purple lungs and other purple body parts to build a purple person so they could be friends. Cue him meeting Freddy and getting told about the Real Purple Guy and his existence as Springtrap. He still wants to be friends.
• Hates Felix (the space pirate, not the cat) for obvious reasons. Locus, he's grown on him ever since he released Caboose from Temple's prison.
• Holds an apparent hate towards the Spy. Why? Because said backstabber is the very weakness of every Sniper in existence. Including Church. Every time the Spy tries to backstab Church, he receives a sniper rifle bullet to the head, courtesy of Caboose. It's gotten to the point where the Spy's fear of Caboose is second to that of the Pyro.
  • Speaking of the Pyro, Caboose is very friendly with it and is one of the few in the Pantheon who established a friendship with it.
• The way Caboose sees swords, they're basically like keys; you stick them in someone and they unlock that someone's death. This rare show of (morbid) intelligence from Caboose has surprised many deities in the Pantheon who wield swords of any kind. Sora, who literally uses keys that unlock more than just locks, thought Caboose's observation to be interesting, if gruesome. Caboose has met him and said this about his keyblade:
  Caboose: Wow. So there is a sword...that can unlock someone’s death...and someone's locks. Neat.
• Yang challenged Caboose to a friendly arm-wrestling match unaware of how really strong Caboose was. This happened.
• The members of the Council of Cloudcuckooland are still debating if he is to become their new leader or if he's too stupid to join them. Either way, he's still a good enough threat to the Council of Shadows.
• Caboose has been the source of many, many, many memorable and stupidly funny quotes along with his fellow Red vs Blue deities. A recent survey in the Pantheon found that he’s one of the Top 10 Gods with the funniest quotes ever. Of all time. And there’s rare moments of wisdom from his normally mentally-disabled mind.
  Caboose: Yep. The universe sure is mysterious. Yeah, sometimes I wonder if there's things we'll never explain. You know, like, you know, what if we did answer all the questions? You know, would we live on, like forever, happy with our triumph over ignorance? Or is ignorance just a common enemy that once destroyed, would leave our species without a reason to carry on? I guess it doesn't matter what the answer is...because even if supreme knowledge did bring about the end of our species, the thought of obtaining it is just what would keep us together. You know? People will always look up at the sky... and just wonder why we're here. WATER BISON POWERS, ACTIVATE! [Runs off in a random direction]
• Some might compare him to Leeroy Jenkins for having both made a charge into a crowd full of powerful enemies, with the only difference being that Caboose was much more successful.
• Whatever you do with him, Do not make him angry at any cost. It will only result in you being the victim of a Greater-God level No-Holds-Barred Beatdown. The list includes: Being an actual baby or being called one, drinking excessive volumes of Red Bull in front of him, owning or liking spiked kittens, attempting to collect taxes from him, being a Texan (strangely enough) and trying to hurt either Alpha or Epsilon-Church in any way possible.
• Caboose once mistook Pikachu for a Digimon. Pikachu kept trying to shock some sense into him, but after 21 failed attempts to cause him any change in reaction and an update of Caboose's stupidity from Church, he just walked away trying to endure the laughter of several witnessing Gods. Their relationship got better though.
• His mind is one of the many places mind-readers and mind-travellers dare not visit. It’s so deluded and insane that he’s been known to drive away those who are well-known to be resistant to such things. Of course, it doesn’t prevent Church and Tex from entering – they’re used to it. Not to mention how many times there’s actually fighting going on in his mind every now and then.
• Has been in a state of massive grief ever since Epsilon fragmented himself in order to run the Meta's suit and save the entire Blood Gulch Crew. Sure, Epsilon's respawned back in the Pantheon, but Caboose is still fearful of what would come of their relation in their mortal lives - if it continued, that is. Of the many attempts to remove his sorrow, the only successful attempt was when Epsilon himself talked Caboose out of it and reassured him that everything would be OK. Even then, he's still quite a bit sad. Took a time portal open to his Blood Gulch days for Caboose to finally cope with grief, as it gave him an opportunity to say goodbye to Church.
  • Caboose himself then went on to try and comfort Pyrrha Nikos, who had been killed by Cinder in an attack on Beacon Academy. She's realized that in both of their original lives they had both lost someone that they loved or cared for very much, albeit in different ways. They shared a hug together.
• Caboose's portion of the House has a play area that is filled with Lego bricks, among other sorts of kids' toys. Woe to anyone who tries to cross it barefoot – for obvious reasons. This made him become friends with the current God of Lego, Emmet Brickowski and Caboose has now begun to sing "Everything is Awesome" whenever he has the chance.
• He has quite a few similarities with Papyrus, which has not gone unnoticed. Both are quite a bit ditzy in personality, but can get a boost to intelligence when needed and have been awesome in their own ways in times of need.
• For a Team Killer Cloud Cuckoolander, he's a crack shot with any rifle or weapon he has. Which means he has a 99.99% chance to hit someone whenever he shoots. Usually, that someone is one his team.
• The only member of the GUAG to have dark blue Tron Lines in Cyberspace. It’s more of a warning for a Team Killer than anything else.
• More likely to be found in the houses where Alpha and Epsilon are than in his own. He tends to confuse the entire House of Philosophy with his extremely strange and sometimes-deep thinking.
• He has made a complete guide to friendship and making friends. As it turns out, it’s got a load of hidden messages that are really useful and he has recovered quickly from Church’s death. The other deities have found themselves new good friends and improved their existing relationships thanks to that.
  • He's also done a guide to finding your home. Even the deities who lost their Doomed Hometown laughed and got Caboose's song about being a home stuck to their heads.
• Is worryingly almost always on the same page as Glitchy's Mario. Considering their lack of IQ, deities tend to let them be and run for the hills, ducking to ensure their safety from any collateral damages.
• Some of the other deities theorize that Caboose is in fact a failed Spartan. Given that he's mentally handicapped and has extreme strength, this may yet be a possibility.
• Never ask him to help you, okay? He'll probably consider that the most effective way of helping you is to shoot you down. Then you'll end up being one of the hundreds of teamkills he's made in the Pantheon, which is even more than his record in his mortal life and the other deities’.
• Attempts to Mind Rape him don't work; the last time that happened, he confused it for being hungry.
• "Not my fault. Someone put a wall in my way."

• Teeth-Clenched Teamwork with: Henry VIII, Daemon Blackfyre
• Enemies: Anyone else with Targaryen as their last name, especially Daenerys Targaryen, Simba, Mufasa, Glenn Quagmire, Tommen Baratheon, Garterbelt, Alexander Anderson, Rosette Christopher, Purist Thunderwrath, The Matsuno Brothers
• Opposes: Everyone else descended from his brother
• Opposed by: Westeros deities not mentioned, members of the House of Religion and Faith not mentioned, the Hall of Felines, the House of Celebration
• Respects: Alarak, Ramses II and any other Evil Overlord who proves Asskicking Leads to Leadership
• Maegor Targaryen, first in his name, is the younger son of Aegon the Conqueror with his elder sister-wife Visenya. From the start he proved a highly competent warrior, gaining a love of combat and being an effective hand to his weak half-brother King Aenys. Though effective in many regard, he was a ruthless figure who usurped the throne from his nephew, killed him and proved to be a blight on the realm. Bloodthirsty, antagonistic to his own family, ruining the lives of many families in hopes of siring an heir and bringing harm to every part of society he has well earned to sobriquet "Maegor the Cruel".
• His mortal coil was shed under suspicious circumstances. As his nephew Jaehaerys was leading a rebellion against him, he was found with his wrists cut open on the Iron Throne. Some say he was assassinated, some say the throne itself killed him, but most agree he probably committed suicide rather than suffer defeat. He was not happy to learn said nephew would go on to become one of the most beloved kings to ever sit the Iron Throne.
• He is considered the quintessential tyrant in Westeros, and is seen as THE most hated king of all. Hell, even his name became an expletive and got a future heir removed from the inheritance due to also being named Maegor(given who the dad, Aerion, was like this was probably a good idea). Aerys II and Aegon IV have held that title, but even they didn't turn the Faith Militant against them. They're infamous in different ways however; while Aerys was mad and Aegon the Unworthy willfully incompetent, Maegor was straight up cruel and evil. Doesn't seem to think much of his fellow "worst kings" however, since he sees himself as better due to being aggressive and ruthless rather than insane or stupid.
• One of the main reasons behind his infamy is also his greatest achievement; the completion of the Red Keep, and the construction of Maegor's Holdfast. He rewarded the builders with a great feast for their efforts, only to violate guest right by butchering them so as to keep the secrets of the Red Keep to himself. This appalling act has upon his ascension led to him being banned from Celebration. It did end up with him finding an ally in Walder Frey, who committed an equally infamous violation of guest right in the Red Wedding.
• Started controversy early by trying to take multiple wives as his father did, six in total. Three were "The Black Brides" who were wed in a single ceremony, widows of those he had indirectly or directly made widows. He had three other wives. Of the six, only two outlived him. He would bed and marry so many in hopes of producing an heir, but all he produced were stillborn and miscarried abominations. It's similar to Henry VIII, even down to the fights they had against the Church. As such he and the Defender of the Faith are on good terms, but Henry is hesitant because he considers much of Maegor's actions psychopathic.
• As with the other ascended Targaryens, he was overjoyed to learn of the Hall of Draconic Beings. Most keep their distance because of either his cruelty or he doesn't have anything to offer him. Deathwing and Nefarian, however? They seemed to be fond of his evil nature and he is overjoyed to ride them.
• Due to his bluebeard tendencies, he isn't allowed inside the House of Love and Affection. The Felines dislike him because he killed a cat with his new sword as a kid, and Glenn Quagmire has sworn to get back at him for this. Maegor hates Glenn because he was capable of siring many bastard children with the women he sleeps with, whereas he tried everything and was left with no heir. He hates the Matsuno Brothers out of envy and spite for being an "affront" to his poor fertility.
• He does not like the Faith Militant, and the feeling is mutual given he was the product of Brother–Sister Incest like Aenys and his polygamy was seen as heretical. To suppress the Faith of the Seven he had Balerion burn down the Great Sept with worshipers inside it. While it was overboard, he wasn't entirely wrong in requiring force to keep the Faith of the Seven from troubling the throne. Cersei would learn this, and having learned the wildfire plot in the Great Sept he couldn't help but applaud her and become her ally. Gets along with her muscle Gregor Clegane too due to their love of violence.
• As expected, he is hated by the entire House of Religion and Faith. Some more than others, as his hate towards Faith Militant led him to oppose religious juggernauts Alexander Anderson, Rosette Christopher and Purist Thunderwrath. Simba and Mufasa don't like him either because he's an Evil Uncle usurper king like Scar, though these were the very same traits that led Scar to become an ally of him.
• A believe of Might Makes Right, and Murder Is the Best Solution. It is this viewpoint that is at the core of his cruelty, and ultimately his Fatal Flaw. To his credit he is a strong and powerful fighter. For this reason he respects both Alarak and Ramses II, even if they don't agree on other policies. He also works with well with Ghetsis Harmonia due to the desire for power and cruel actions towards family, and Palpatine for their shared Evil Overlord nature.
• One of the main reasons he was so cruel was overcompensating for being the second son, and like the infamous Joffrey Baratheon he wished for approval from his father. Unfortunately he would focus too much on the military aspect of the Conqueror. The family reunion wasn't happy in the slightest, as Aegon was horrified to learn what he'd done, outright saying that he is one of the most evil people to have ever lived. Maegor took this very poorly, but ended up assuming he needed to be even more ruthless and cutthroat.
• Asides from maybe Aegon the Conqueror, the only other person he has an ember of humanity for is his mother Visenya. This isn't surprising though, as she helped make sure he got the throne. It's believed she poisoned Aenys to help him get the throne, but Maegor states he was simply sickly. Whether he's being truthful or trying to save face is unknown. He does seem to get along somewhat with his distant great-nephew Daemon Blackfyre as well, being they are strong usurpers. Daemon still considers him pretty evil though.

• Fears: Dis, Tartarus, Hades and Persephone, Dokuro Mitsukai
• Westeros is a harsh world by modern standards, but there are still clear standards to follow. Two of which are so sacred that violating them is seen as truly unforgivable: never kill your family members, and in the North especially keep Sacred Hospitality. The very old Walder Frey maintained the first virtue, but definitely not the second. Angered by a broken familial arrangement, he sought to destroy Robb Stark. And the way he did it was invite the Starks over to a wedding for Edmure Tully and a Frey bridge, so he and his family can slaughter them all. Though Tywin ordered it and Roose had his part, they weren't the ones who broke bread with the forces of the Starks, and House Frey would become the biggest pariahs on the continent.
  • Walder's fate depends on the timeline. In the books he's yet to personally suffer for his crimes, however his extensive family has been dying in droves. Unknown to him, some Freys have been cannibalized and fed to him and his kin...Revenge Is a Dish Best Served indeed. In the show Arya has been cleaning house with his brood, and after letting him have a "Frey pie" let him know "The North Remembers". Thus an earlier end to House Frey came to the relief of many.
• When Walder ascended he had the absolute gall to say he was crashing the party. If he thinks he could take Refuge in Audacity, he was dead wrong as the House of Celebration hates him...even if they legally can't get rid of him due to his trope. Pinkie Pie, being the life of the party, is very acidic when even mentioning him. Bacchus/Dionysus feels the same, especially seeing as how Greek gods HATE breakers of guest right. The House of Friendship doesn't have anything good to say about House Frey either since he spits in the face of respect and coming together. And the House of Loyalty and Servitude? Forget it: there are wet shits they'd trust before him. His reaction to all this antipathy? A mere "heh".
• Even before what'd become known as the Red Wedding, Walder Frey and his family were derided. His family was looked down on for their comparative youth first, but it soon became justified with their pettiness, unwarranted ego and general unpleasantness. Though not a Complete Monster (at least not in the books), Walder Frey is perhaps the most hated man in Westeros due to said Red Wedding. Tywin only really tolerates him as an important figure in his ambitions, and is ready to throw him under the bus when needed. Robb and Catelyn utterly despise him for orchestrating their deaths, among other things. Roose is the closest thing he has to an ally in Westeros.
• The entire House of Law and Justice has sworn to punish Walder for the Red Wedding. Being the guardian of Sacred Hospitality, Zeus is reserving a spot in Tartarus for what he's done. Proving himself an idiot, Walder Frey pointed out what a Hypocrite Zeus is: he turned his first wife into a fly to swallow to avert a prophecy their son would overthrow him yet that's more or less what his own hated father did, guarded oaths yet repeatedly breaks his vows to his wife, and is supposed to be a God of Order yet acts rash and contradictory. Though despicable and not unhypocritical himself, one cannot deny Frey cannot give good criticism if needed. Funnily enough, for all their friction Zeus and Hera love devising ironic punishments with each other.
• He's not the only god to head a Nasty Party. Big Mom planned one as a means of assassinating the Vinsmokes. They're a lot less innocent than Walder's victims, which has only given Walder the smug misbelief nobody would've hated him if, say, House Bolton suffered the Red Wedding. Much as they don't like them, House Stark vehemently disagreed and stated nobody deserves guest right being broken, not even to get rid of the Boltons. Charlotte Linlin couldn't care about this banter, as she believes her and Frey's massive family could form a number of political marriages for each other's sake.
• Though Walder Frey is loathed among one of his Houses and only permitted residence on a technicality, the other House, Betrayal, is one he fits in relatively well. As much as a bastard like himself can like someone, Mannfred likes Walder as he sees much of himself in the old man. Compared to some of his more Ax-Crazy allies Walder seems a more grounded person. And he sure has his fun scheming with Mannfred. Due to his ambitions marrying off his daughters for political purposes he could see where Prince Hans was coming and believes they can work out an arrangement for their schemes. Unsurprisingly most think these "friendships" are only because their collective reputation is so terrible they can only count on each other at best.
• Though it relates more to himself, Walder Frey is disgusted by cannibalism. Despite liking Eric Cartman on some level, he has a hard time coping with the how he made Scott Tenorman eat his parents as chili because Scott tricked him into buying his pubes. His revulsion towards the Hall of Flesh Eaters, given what happened to his family, is somewhat understandable...but in true Slimeball fashion sells it as moralizing to get back in the pantheon's good graces. Surprisingly for how much of an Entitled Bastard he is Walder does seem legitimately perturbed at the trope's holder Shou Tucker, since he does legitimately believes in valuing your own and given what he did to his daughter...still doesn't stop House Frey's lord from being any less of a Hate Sink, though.
• Deep in his bones Zeus's threats have made him dread Tartarus and the punishment Hades has waiting for him, but he covers it up with his trademark arrogance. As the Greek Gods are repulsed by cannibalism he used his disgust to convince them he wasn't as bad as they thought. Hades didn't even hear him out since he knows Walder really just Wants a Prize for Basic Decency. As she hadn't experience the trauma of being eaten his wife Persephone was even less forgiving. She suggested that in life he should be handed over to Dokuro: she's all about beating down perverts and he's a major Dirty Old Man, so seeing her punish him would be fun. And after he dies possibly send him to be tormented by Dis, Emperor of the Kingdom Dolorous. Walder vainly wailed that Dis would show him mercy as they're from the same stock, only for the omnimalevolent demon to yawn he could get some use over using Walder as a stress toy.
• Tried using the Crossing to get a position in the House of Travel, but was treated with suspicion by the other members because of how unreliable he is and not allowed in. He's constantly asking for huge fees in using his Bridge, being uncaring that some of his house's initial heat was due to taking advantage of a strategic position they happened to grow up around. He commands the bridge into Mordor now, but the Grand United Alliance of Evil does not trust him, knowing he would happily take a better offer; dude loves trolling other members of the Pantheon. Walder Frey's ultimate ambition is to be the biggest power broker and administrator of the house, and to help him in this effort he has sided with Nute Gunray as he has experience with blockading. Given their ego is inversly proportional to their competence, this hasn't seen any success.
• As mentioned House Frey is a young house; though only by comparison to his peers-about 600 years. Walder estimates this would also be the kind of difference between him and many members of the House of Commerce; he is still a part of medieval society and has some unfamiliarity to the modern plutocracy. Mr Burns, being about 14 (maybe) years his senior decided to teach him the ropes. Being the greedy, venal lord that he is Walder Frey found the malicious billionaire was a kindred spirit. He soon came to appreciate the selfish, greedy misers of the House. Happy to find friends, Walder Frey had attempted to get along with Ebenezer Scrooge, only to be rebuffed with a vengeance as he has long since changed his ways.
• Has brought with him to the Pantheon his huge family and keeps asking for marriages. The rest of the Pantheon keeps declining, as they don't dare to go to weddings involving Freys. Even ignoring their negative reputation, Walder Frey simply has too many descendants to realistically ascend and he isn't stopping in making more: he's a peevish old man who still has enough game he can't count how many bastards he has and considers "barely legal" a starting point. Many sought to scrub themselves dry after spending too much time with him. Walder still tries to badger the House of Love and Affection to marry off his children for political purposes, eventually leading to a restraining order.
• To give him some credit, even if he doesn't prevent his own vices from spreading across the family he's not an abusive father like Tywin. Some have compared the dynamic he has with his large family to Charles zi Britannia, who has far more consorts than even Walder. However beyond talk of "body-counts" the Emperor of Britannia regards Walder as slimy and irrelevant. A worse father^note adoptive but still counts, Ghetsis may concede Walder's slimy, but doesn't find him irrelevant; he wants his strategic position as Lord of the Crossing and wealth as an asset. As Walder couldn't give a shit about families that aren't his, he accepted it. Walder's enemies snidely commented the real reason they're working together is that only a fellow low-life is willing to work with him.
• Looks like an older and even crabbier Argus Filch, who he assumed was one of his many bastards. Filch takes offense at that since while he's an unpleasant jerk, Walder Frey is vile. Walder Frey doesn't mind, as he'd rather look like Filch than a bald, toothless man. He also looks familiar to the Doctor as being like (and in personality too) the space pirate Solomon and (only in grumpiness) himself, right before the 1st Doctor was about to regenerate. This case of mistaken identity led Arya to not get along with the Doctor at first, and Walder to have an instinctive distrust of Ashildr. Her and the Doctor's relationship may be difficult, but they can at least come together in disgust of Walder Frey.
• The Harold Saxon Master once pulled off not a wedding, but a different invitation for his new cabinet so he could gas them. He's also batshit crazy^note two thumbs up! and thinks humans are inferior to Time Lords so Walder doesn't want to deal with him. And given how much of a Slimeball he is, even the Mr Saxon Master thinks he's cringeworthy (though admits he likes he's a Troll). Sigurd was disappointed the Master didn't make him pay, as the Red Wedding is a painful reminder of how he was betrayed; backstabbed by Arvis and incinerated along with his army. Arvis himself feels Walder Frey is too brazen and slimy for his liking, but he has better things to do than to oppose someone who's already got enemies at all sides.
• Claims to practice Pragmatic Villainy, but his endless jabs, ignoring sacred taboos and smug snakery put him squarely in Stupid Evil territory. The man honestly thinks his schemes and plotting makes him a Worthy Opponent to the logistic exploitation of Prince Thief, however he seems Walder Frey for the flagrant Opportunistic Bastard he really is. He's also believes Walder Frey has only lived to his nineties in spite of the aforementioned Stupid Evil because he's too afraid of open confrontation; his choice to not participate in Robert's Rebellion until said rebellion was all but assured was used as Example A. Walder vainly defends his action as "exercising caution" and pointed out Thief is pretty sneaky and underhanded himself. Thief's response? Yes, but I'm clever at it...unlike you".
• Walder Frey is incensed that even gods from the "present" think his breaking of Sacred Hospitality is especially vile, not just because he finds being Hated by All problematic for his ambitions (though his personality is arguably more hated) but because he believes they are hypocrites for not condemning Frank Castle for doing something similar; inviting a bunch of highly corrupt executives, and on another occasion mobsters, to a party/dinner as an underhanded means of killing them. The Punisher doesn't like being compared to Walder and pointed out it was done under very different circumstances-he gives dishonorable men dishonorable deaths to avenge the muder of his family, while Walder brutally dishonored an honorable family for a broken marriage arrangement and a boon from the Lannisters.
• The Enchantress is among many especially disgusted by Walder Frey. Sure, turning away someone for being ugly is one thing. However inviting them before murdering them is a whole new level of depraved, and the only reason she hasn't targeted him for his crimes yet is because she's trying to develop the perfect curse to punish him. The head of House Frey isn't all that surprised as she's a fey who holds Sacred Hospitality as, well, sacred. Given other people were caught up in her "lesson" to the Prince who would've been 11 or so at the time Walder arrogantly mocks her for "being underhanded". The Enchantress wasn't surprised as Walder clearly doesn't understand why guest right is so important and why it's part of her more extreme actions.
