Pantheon: Family
Family

The House of Family is quite literally just one massive house that can accommodate the entire "family". Each member gets their own room, though unfortunately, due to a misunderstanding with the House of Craft, there is only one bathroom in the entire house, leading to some monumental clashes that have left entire universes shattered. As a result, this family ranks among one of the most dysfunctional one would ever meet, and the other deities wonder just what keeps them all together under the same roof. There have been so many claims of domestic abuse and other disturbances that now the House of Defense has officially stopped taking calls related to this House. The few members of the 501st that are Darth Vader's personal guard try and keep everything intact, but it never seems to work, which makes that job the most disliked in the entire Legion.

There are currently talks about filming a Reality Television series here.

Scar, God of Evil Princes, Evil Uncles, and Evil Brothers

Kazumi Amano, Goddess of Cool Big Sisters
  • Lesser Goddess
  • Symbol: Gunbuster in Arms-folded pose
  • Alignment: Lawful Good
  • Portfolio: Big Sisters, Hard Work and Guts
  • Domain: Love, War, Travel
  • Followers: Mill(a)y Ashford, Kim Possible, Rin Sawamura (Midori Days), Asagi Ayase (Yotsuba&!)
  • Allies: Byakuya Kuchiki, Yotsuba, Noriko Takaya, the majority of Super Robot Pilots.
  • Not at all related to Yotsuba, but is usually there to play when her adoptive dad is out at work.
  • Her motto of "hard work and guts" has been adopted on Earth by thousands, including a fiery young lady named Haruka Suzushiro.

Byakuya Kuchiki, God of Brotherhood

Darth Vader, God of Evil Fathers and Commander of The Legion
  • Theme Song: "The Imperial March"
  • Intermediate God
  • Symbol: Black helmet
  • Alignment: Lawful Evil
  • Portfolio: Paternal Revelations, Mysterious Parents, Big No Screamers, Mind Probing, Spoilers Everybody Knows, Creepy Life-Support Breathing, Lightsabers
  • Domain: Corruption, Darkness, Destiny, Evil
  • The patriarch (of course) of the Family pantheon from time immemorial (the 70's), Vader was weakened and quietly overthrown by Scar when the Star Wars prequels alienated many of his worshipers. Naturally, Scar was behind the whole thing. Vader is currently venting his wrath on his servants. He keeps trying to use his new position to strike back at Scar, but Captain America always intervenes in time to prevent the revenge of this Sith.
  • Since he became a part of the House of Defense, Vader spends more and more time away from this House. Working under a flag-covered soldier and directing his troops with a too-soft hand once would have been beneath him, but these days it seems far preferable to enduring Scar's smirk at the dinner table.
  • Ozai is one of his most devoted followers. The rest of the gods (save Zuko) take amusement in hearing both converse, as it's like watching a bizarre version of a Star Wars film.
  • Rumor is that once, long before the ascension of Captain Carrot, Vader was the God of Heroes, but fell in a disaster that the rest of the Pantheon covers up. His voice is nearly identical to that of Scar's brother, who had been dead for eons and whose spirit has not been seen since Vader became the God of Evil Fathers. What this means is hotly contested.
  • When the Emperor ascended, Vader once more swore fealty. He still resents his Master, however, and secretly plots against him. His troops are loyal to him before their Emperor, he has made sure of that.
  • As much of an evil father he is, even he felt rage at how horrible Ghetsis treated his own son. This is probably due to his own issues with his mother and his upbringing.
  • He has made an enemy out of Red Skull ever since he decided to rap against Hitler and then freeze him in carbonite.

Fumio Usui, Goddess of Cool Moms

Fujitaka Kinomoto, God of Cool Dads

Sofia Lamb, Goddess of Evil Mothers (Head of the Rapture Family, Dr. Lamb)

Chiyo-chan's father, God of Parental Abandonment (Chiyo-chichi)

Komand'r, Goddess of Evil Sisters (Blackfire)

Philip Banks, God of Advisory Uncles (Uncle Phil)

Homer Simpson, God of Bumbling Dads (SIMP-son, eh?; Homie; Dad; Dad-dy)

Precia Testarossa and Ghetsis Harmonia, God and Goddess of Abusive Parents

Mr. Koiwai, God of Adoptive Fathers
  • Lesser God
  • Symbol: A sunflower
  • Alignment: Chaotic Good
  • Followers: Belial and Nebiros, Daikichi Kawachi (Bunny Drop)
  • Portfolio: Adoptive Parents, Cartoonists, New Neighbors, Faces to Doodle On, Playing The Goldfish Scooping Game, Relative Immaturity
  • Domain: Love, Family, Stupidity
  • Nobody knows where and how he got his adoptive daughter and he won't tell either. Still, he is determined to be a good dad. Really.

Hansel and Gretel, Gods of Creepy Twins
  • Demigods
  • Symbol: A hatchet and Browning Automatic Rifle
  • Alignment: Chaotic Evil (leaning toward Stupid Evil)
  • Portfolio: Creepy Twins, Twincest, Brother-Sister Incest, Twin Switch, Squick
  • Domain: Murder, Insanity, Screwed up Childhoods
  • Followers: Mion/Shion Sonozaki (Higurashi no Naku Koro ni), Sherri/Terri (The Simpsons), the Twins (Superjail!), Alfred/Alexia Ashford (Resident Evil) and Phil/Lil De Ville (Rugrats).
  • Allies: Johan Liebert, Alice (not that one)
  • These are some really fucked up children right here, and scare the shit out of a good portion of the Pantheon. It's not their life's dedication to random, senseless killing (pretty much two thirds of the Pantheon is like that anyways), but the fact that it's impossible to tell which twin is the "brother" and the "sister" because they keep swapping roles. Even the Sonozaki twins are disturbed...and that's saying a lot, considering what they're involved in.
  • It's only gotten worse now they've become devoted to their new 'big brother' Johan Liebert, of whom they share their passions of destroying human life and disturbingly convincing cross-dressing.
  • The twins also have a small appreciation for Alice, in the House of Emotion. Given her immortality and horrific sadism, a good time is had by the three of them whenever they arrange playdates. Belial and Nebiros are a tad squicked. Johan just smiles.

Helen Parr, Goddess of Action Moms (Elastigirl)
  • Lesser Goddess
  • Symbol: Either her former symbol (a combined "E" and "G"), or her family's current symbol (a lowercase "i" in a stylized oval)
  • Alignment: Lawful Good
  • Portfolio: Stretching Powers, Being Happily Married, Aging Superheroines
  • Domains: Family, Law, Good
  • Followers: Susan "Invisible Woman" Storm-Richards (Fantastic Four), Sarah Jane Smith (Doctor Who), Sarah Connor (Terminator), Kazumi Kato (The Order of the Stick), Lena Sayers (Mai-Otome)
  • Impressed the Pantheon after proving that, after more than a decade of retirement, she can still kick ass and take names.
  • She has noticed that the former head of the house keeps coming back late and leaving early, and is debating whether or not she wants to confront him about it.

Elenore Baker, Goddess of Ninja Maids and Domestic Skills (Everyday Gatekeeper)
  • Greater Goddess
  • Alignment: Neutral Good (with Lawful tendencies)
  • Symbol: Heart with Margaret Burton's picture on it, but most (if not all) of her followers prefer Elenore's picture on the symbol.
  • Portfolio: Domestic Skills, Ninja Maids, Martial Arts, Protection, Endurance, Love, Lesbians
  • Domain: Craft, Love, Domestic Skills, Protection
  • Followers: Margaret Burton and large legion of devoted fangirls/fanboys
  • Allies: Madlax, Vanessa Rene
  • Enemies: Friday Monday, Carrossea Doon, anyone who threatens Miss Margaret
  • Known Prophets: Bocayuki, Sayoko Shinozaki
  • Ascended by dying for her master Margaret Burton, but not before confessing her love to her. Her last words ("You are my family") allowed her a place in the Family Pantheon and her love in the Love Pantheon.
  • Usually a kind and loving deity. However, if Margaret Burton is threated, her wrath knows no bounds. Her love and devotion to her former master gained her the respect and admiration of Ninja Maids everywhere as well gathering a devoted following. She also does the housekeeping for Houses of Craft, Family and Love.
  • Doing the housekeeping (well most of it...she has an army of meido to help and occasionaly Bocayuki when she threatens Margaret (Elenore knows full well that Bocayuki's threats (including the death ones)are hot air.

Mufasa, Vanished God of Absent Fathers, Former God of Distant, Loving Fathers
  • Greater God, for his last appearance
  • Alignment: Lawful Good
  • Symbol: Pride Rock, and a really big pawprint
  • Portfolio: Reasonable Authority, Showing Up At The Last Moment To Save The Day, Conspicuous Absence Of The Ability To Return From The Dead, Addressing Carnivore Confusion, Approval Of Children, Advice After Death.
  • Domain: Nobility, Strength, Leadership
  • Allies: Gendo Ikari (uneasy)
  • Enemies: Scar
  • A son of Aslan, Mufasa ruled his territories wisely and well, in those misty times before the formation of this House. He was overthrown and murdered by his brother Scar, but all evidence says that it was "an accident".
  • Unlike most of the other gods, he could not be resurrected by Virtuous. Nor could his spirit carry on as other gods' do - he was never seen walking the savanna and conversing. Instead, the lion manifested for brief periods in the sky, encouraging his children.
  • Records from that time are incomplete, but The Question has a theory about what happened then. Apparently, after some cataclysmic disaster the at-the-time God of Heroes was near dissolution and could only be saved by the infusion of another god's spirit, one of the greatest sacrifices in the Pantheon. And Mufasa made it, believing that there "was still good in him". Most gods who subscribe to this theory are of the opinion that the lion was wrong. Vader has his voice, and very little else.
  • Whatever did happen, Mufasa hasn't been seen since.

Kinzo Ushiromiya (Goldsmith), God of Big Screwed Up Families

Bryan Mills, God of Papa Wolves
  • Demigod
  • Symbol: a scrap book with pictures of his daughter
  • Alignment: Chaotic Good
  • Portfolio: Papa Wolf, Determinator, Knight Templar Parent, One-Man Army, Overprotective Dad, Person of Mass Destruction, Retired Badass, Tranquil Fury, Unstoppable Rage
  • Domains: Family
  • Allies: Chiyo-chan, Asura
  • Followers: Harry Mason, Subject Delta, Belial and Nebiros and the Big Daddies.
  • Most evil deities know not to harm his daughter or Chiyo for that matter, for they know bad things will happen to them if they do. Will bring Subject Delta and a legion of Big Daddies to aid him in said response.
    • With Asura having become Bryan's ally, most evil deities just do not even think about doing anything to anyone close to Bryan Mills.
  • When Asura was asked to take over the title of God of Papa Wolves, he respectfully declined. He was already the God of enough tropes, and Bryan Mills had already earned the title for himself. So out of respect, he became an ally of Bryan Mills.

Madame Foster, Goddess of Foster Homes
  • Lesser Goddess
  • Symbol: A stylised letter F
  • Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
  • Portfolio: Foster homes, animal shelters, Good Orphanages
  • Domains: Family, Chaos, Creation
  • Considers all other members of the pantheon to be her grandkids. Seldom seen in the main areas of the Family House due to her difficulty climbing stairs.

  • Portfolio: Team Mom, Badassery in general and by pregnant women in particular, Reverse Moles, Star-Crossed Lovers, Even the Girls Want Her, The Futility and Arbitrary Nature of War
  • Allies: Solid Snake, Revolver Ocelot
  • Gained the title by becoming a mother via self-performed C-section while storming the beaches of Normandy, disqualifying all other women from complaining about the pain of childbirth when she's around, ever
  • Is absolutely delighted that, for the first time, she gets to be in close contact with her son Ocelot on a regular basis without being undercover and attacking something she loves the whole time. Ocelot is utterly horrified by how much she embarrasses him in public in front of his friends unwitting pawns, but he doesn't dare complain or maybe toss her out for the good of The Plans because he knows she would whoop his ass if he tried.

Relius Clover, God of Antagonistic Fathers (Colonel Clover, The Puppetteer)

Sophitia Alexandra, Goddess of Wives Stronger Than Husbands and Protective Moms (Sophie)

Jin Kazama, God of Those Who Fights Evil Parents (Child of Destiny, Devil Jin, DJ)

  • Enemies: Nearly every deities from Nanoha (but especially Signum), Lamia Loveless, The Incredibles
  • In the beginning there was only Cypha as a representative of Wilhelm von Juergen, serving alongside Barbatos. The efforts of Relius Clover, however, brought forth Curren and the rest of the family, enabling them to reunite and wreak havoc further.
  • They treat Relius like a father, although they constantly cite how he constantly abuses them to garner pity. Relius did not deny abuses, but that didn't even garner the Huckebeins any sympathy. By all means, they would've been thrown to the Disgraces like Juergen, but they amassed power too big for them to be kicked like that.
  • Currently, seeing Signum awakened, Cypha didn't even flicker and even boasts that she'll gladly impale her again with ease.

Mandy, Goddess of Children From Hell
  • Greater Goddess
  • Symbol: Yellow devil's horns
  • Alignment: True Neutral
  • Portfolio: Expressive Hair, Enfantes Terribles, Manipulative Bastards, Perpetual Frowners, Heroic Sociopath.

  • Allies: Mandy has no allies; only subordinates. She does seem to respect Jin Kazama, to some extent.
  • Enemies: Cartman
  • The other gods make it a point to stay on Mandy's bad side as much as possible. Every time she smiles, an alternate universe is wiped out of existence.
  • Was once in a three way tie for this position against Stewie Griffin and to a lesser extent Eric Cartman. However, since Cartman was deemed not evil enough and Stewie became her High Priest, it all kind of settled over.
  • Formerly believed to be a manifestation of Azula in child form. However, since Azula's downfall, Mandy vehemently denies any connection between them: "I'm supposed to do something important. She didn't. She didn't at ALL. "
