Love and Lust
The House of Love and Lust is, for the most part, fantastically decadent. Visitors are reminded that this is not a cathouse, and most of the gods residing in it will, at best, laugh if propositioned. It is a wonderful place to take a date, and a popular attraction for groups of friends. The House's purpose is to provide comfortable, relaxing surroundings, ideal for pleasure of all kinds, from intellectual to carnal. That doesn't mean there aren't uncomfortable parts. But a visitor can only get into those of his or her own accord. No unwanted violence is permitted here - even the worst of enemies are forced to do nothing but glare and walk away. Unless they're really there for one another.
This House has its own highly-tended steamy garden replete with a number of secluded nooks. Under its domed roof, one can find the bubbling pools of such things as mud, wine, chocolate, Jell-O, and mysterious slime. The kitchens are always well stocked, the furnishings well appointed. The best sound systems in the Pantheon are here, although it's superior by a very slim margin (It's rumored that Akio Ohtori persuadedTony Stark to hand over the blueprints for every new sound system as soon as it is conceived). Infamously, there is a door which opens into an explicit wing of the House of Knowledge's Library, and a strange little room in which anything and everything a visitor finds exciting can be seen. Clothing is optional in designated areas, keeping in with the whole "Lust" thing.
A visitor's final and most emphatic warning is this: Don't go beyond the place where the columns become supple, that place where the very nonhuman make their homes. Unless you're into that.Desire of the Endless
Allies: Chikane and Himeko, Mai Shiranui, Mai Tokiha, Sei
Opposed by: Akio
Shizuru's followers believe her to be Neutral Good, but she has a tendency to become overprotective of her "subjects", far past violence, and thus is classified as Neutral Evil. Regardless of whether or not she's fighting, she still manages to maintain a calm demeanor (where even her angriest screams sound strangely like pleas for help). However, she has become increasingly embittered, as her Lust throne was recently usurped by Akio Ohtori, whose powers to woo over men and women have cut into her pool of worshippers.
Often invites her female followers to her temple for a Spot of Tea, and the occasional "hot coffee". Reynardine, Hiyori Tamura and Jiraiya can occasionally be seen outside during the night hours taking notes and pictures. Tek Jansen has famously noted that she has "obviously had hundreds of girlfriends."
Thinks there's something special about that Negi kid, but won't tell anyone else what it is.
Overseer of all goodevil mind-blowing sex, everywhere; no entity in the universe is capable of completely resisting the charms of Akio Ohtori when it comes to sexual seduction. Known for his ability to be able to do it with anyone, anywhere (regardless of sex or species), he is actually not the only being in the universe to ever become more attracted to Bridget after finding out his secret. Just the most vocal about it.
Only too willing to use his unique charms to his advantage. But while other deities are generally happy to sleep with Akio, that doesn't always mean that they have gone soft on him. He did manage to beat Shizuru at her own game, and as a result, was able to take her throne away.
Provides meals for everyone in the House of Love, also overseeing the kitchen workers providing for the guests, and was selected as "Best Cook" two years in a row. Popular myth states that Aoi learned her cooking technique from Iron Chef Morimoto, and frequently exchanges recipes with Mai Tokiha.
Despite the recent opening of the House of Food, she insists on staying here. She does frequent the place, though.
Both have beaten up Zapp, Akio, and Bond more than once for hitting on their partner. Neither is interested in the advances of the other goddesses, either.
Their position was once threatened with the presence of Madoka Kaname and Homura Akemi. However, Madoka's greater status as a Goddess of Magical Girl put that on halt, allowing Himeko and Chikane to remain Goddesses of Yuri. And on Himeko and Madoka's suggestion, it would seem that Chikane and Homura sometimes engage in Teeth-Clenched Teamwork due to their colder nature.
While shadows of the true Superman and Lex Luthor, the Smallville incarnations' Villain Love was so profound that it warped reality and earned them their own place in the Pantheon.
Clark is probably the only person on the planet who doesn't know about that one time when Lex stole forty of his favorite cakes (or maybe it was pies), an act that could only be described by onlookers as "terrible".
The Joker has eyes on this position for himself and "Batsy" but Batman wants nothing to do with it.
Has slept with most of the goddesses in the Pantheon. That's something not even Zapp can say. Is currently trying to make Shizuru his latest conquest, but is failing. That's okay as he loves a challenge. Is also half monk, half hitman, which really does call his genealogy into question. Eternal rival of Zapp Brannigan, though he doesn't really notice.
Before he himself became an immortal, Peter Sellers dared to mock him and suffered dearly for it. He now shares his experience as a cautionary tale with the other gods.
Miroku has been seen worshipping at his altar before performing exorcisms.
Also tends to make a lot of friends just by blasting them in the face with a giant magical laser which also fulfills her other role. Pretty much how she "befriended" half the pantheon... in fact, the very deity previously occupying this spot has been befriended into submission by her. Not that anybody's complaining, though.
Recently seen with Evangeline A.K. McDowell near closed space, which they call "Improved training area under construction". Many gods have a bad feeling about this...
The rest of them are competing over who gets to try it out first.
Gets on well with Naruto due to their similar views on making friends and what happens when they're threatened. The Pantheon fears the day when a mutual friend is attacked.
Frequent guest of Laharl, God of Noble Demons. Laharl insists that it's for purely for tactical alliance reasons and the fact that she acts exactly like his mother is entirely coincidence.
Upon concluding that Laharl's conversion to the side of good was a success (whether he admits it or not), Flonne has set her sights on nudging Kefka towards the path of righteousness. The rest of the pantheon is taking bets on how long before she snaps.
Experienced a massive surge in power after her recent promotion/transformation.
Erik, God of Obsessive Love (The Angel of Music, The Opera Ghost, The Phantom of the Opera)
Demigod
Symbol: A white mask on a black background accompanied by a red rose with a black ribbon
Alignment: Varies depending on his current level of sanity
Domains: Music, Chandeliers, Pipe Organs, Mad Artists, Masquerade Balls, Villain Love Songs, Mirrors, General Stalking Behavior (including hypnotizing the person, isolating them, threatening to kill off their other love interest, etc.)
Rarely leaves his lair/torture chamber convinced that his face will forever keep him from humanity despite the large amount of fangirls who come to pay homage each morning.
Spends most of his time making everyone else uncomfortable with his advances. He seems particularly interested in Captain Kirk.
Has recently taken a perverse liking to Dr. Liara T'soni, Goddess of Bizarre Alien Biology, upon hearing that she can mate with nearly anything. Liara is trying very desperately to ignore him.
Slaanesh is pretty much the only god(dess) in this house that nobody in the Pantheon wants to associate with. No, not even Zex. If you really have to ask why, you're better off not knowing. Hobbies include orgies on the beach, a romantic orgy in an expensive French restaurant, and a round of intense whipping with his garishly painted pink Space Marines. S/He is the incarnation of (perverse) sex, drugs, and rock and roll. Also has a craving for Eldar souls.
Allies: Mikuru, Mai Tohika, Hinata Hyuga, WALL-E and EVE, Edward Scissorhands, Chiyo Mihama
Warmed the hearts of all the good and neutral gods in the Pantheon with their arrival. Those prone to bad cases of Cuteness Overload were effectively crippled for a week.
Edward Scissorhands has particular fondness for them, and he makes sure to dress their hair every chance he gets. The Girls see him as a very loveable big brother, and Lilly in particular is very fond of him and invites him to tea often.
Keima Katsuragi proposed himself to conquer every single one of them, but the Girls shot him down pretty quick. They are not trophies to be won, they are girls whose hearts can only be conquered by true love!
One thing to particularly note about Hanako: Giving her overprotection would instead incur her wrath. And it is depressing.
Peter's main temple, known as the Degrassi Building, has been dedicated to many different deities of Unstable Relationships over the years. Manny Santos, Craig Manning, Paige Michalchuk, Emma Nelson, and Emma Nelson-Simpson are just some of these other deities. Rumor has it that the ever-changing deities are all fakes, and the real Deity of Unstable Relationships is the Degrassi Building itself...which is alive, and psychically feeds on the romantic angst of those within it. Considering how different the building looks than it did in The Eighties, there's every possibility it's a teen angst-powered TARDIS.
With Peter's graduation a new avatar was chosen by the school. However due to their constant dance of break-up and reconciliation neither candidate was appropriate without the other. So now Sav and Anya will dance together in the Pantheon until they Graduate. Sav's young sister Alli seems to be a promising replacement when that day comes.
Being inanimate, devoid of orifices, and incapable of feeling anything means that the Cube is the only member of the Pantheon that Slaanesh has not expressed an interest in (that doesn't stop him/her/it? though). It hasn't stopped Nina Einstein from having a few rounds, though. Even Jiraiya, who normally jumps at the chance to find new reading material, finds it a bit...disturbing.
Yumi would gladly offer her position to Sachiko, as long as she can enjoy her beautiful eyes. It hasn't stopped Sei from keeping her eyes (and hands) all over her, though.
Belldandy answers the calls of lonely Earth boys looking for love, as long as they are pure of heart. Those who does get answered, consider yourself lucky, because she'd really be a perfect mate.
Ascended when he hit on and was rejected by the last woman on Earth. He is also the Luck Syphon of Justy Ueki Tylor, God Of Luck — any time Tylor so much as finds a penny on the ground, Moroboshi gets an anvil dropped on him to balance karma.
Consort and former priest of Ichigo, Goddess of Catgirls, he ascended to the Pantheon after one too many attempts on his life. Holds a silent grudge against those that want bad boys or stalkers, but will act nice to them up front and has been seen playing chess with Erik.
Was praised for her compassion after she helped end a war without killing a single human being. Her followers believe she flew toward the heavens on a jet of flames following her departure from the earthly realm. Convenes with Aoi to share cooking recipes, and with Shizuru to reminisce about the good ol' days.
Allies: Mai Tokiha, Nanoha Takamachi, Noel Vermillion, Mami Tomoe
Supposedly, she is even more capable than Vash, but decided his title should stay his because she doesn't like showing off.
Preaches the ultimate battle strategy of embracing your opponents and erasing their will to fight. Protects the innocent from the evil, and the evil from themselves. Capable of making even the most vile and demented villains realise the error of their ways and turn over a new leaf. Walks the Earth disarming countries and unwillingly winning fanservice awards.
While she isn't open to mortal propositions (luckily for the proposer, she's among those who'll laugh and either playfully dodge the question or deliberately misunderstand it, and she's always up for being friends), she's quite open to giving anyone, deity or no, a big ol'hug to cheer them up or quell their violent tendencies if they'd prove to be more of a danger than usual. It's universally agreed that she's really good at this, probably the absolute best among any of the Pantheons. Her vast real estate holdings help a little (okay, a lot), but her personality is agreed upon to be the main factor.
She's practically Noel Vermillion's Cool Big Sis, as she tutored her in gun-fighting and tried to help her self-esteem issues a lot, despite being far more buxom than Noel could ever hope to be.
Mami later joins in her session, and Rushuna has also been teaching her about genuine smiles rather than smiles to cover one's issues
Does not pass out nearly as much now that a mortal shell doesn't weigh her down. Whether or not Hinata has ever hooked up with Naruto has become the largest betting pool in the Pantheons, with evidence leaning both ways equally, much to the frustration of everyone.
Has kindly refused the advances of Shizuru and Zapp, to their dismay. Bond doesn't even try, less out of respect and more out of what mighthappen should the bet end in favor of Naruto having a clue. Or Neji, for that matter.
Has a good friendship with Orihime of the House of Craft, due to having the same English voice actress, and they spend their time chatting about their loves. Hinata normally tries to politely refuse her....uniquecooking.
Has most recently finally confessed her love to Naruto, after Pein destroyed Konoha, and fought Naruto in the mortal realm, as she stepped in to defend him. The result of this is still pending (but has stimulated reactions among the fan-followers). However, her near demise at Pein's hands ignited Unstoppable Rage towards Pein, and eventually claimed victory.
WALL-E and EVE, God and Goddess of Heartwarming (Waste Allocation Load Lifter - Earth Class, Extraterrestrial Vegetation Evaluator)
The entire Pantheon has unanimously agreed that any attempt to usurp, attack, or demean WALL-E and EVE's positions in the Pantheon will result in a horrible, HORRIBLE demise. Most likely by EVE.
Friends with fellow deity Chance the Gardener and his companion Eve Rand. It's probably coincidental, but deities wonder...
Wrote every song that everyone else in the Love Pantheon dances to (except Slaanesh, who will... ehrm, "dance" to anything). Has been keeping this as a sidejob apart from his regular routine without telling anybody. Notably, the entire Pantheon is divided over whether he is, in fact, dead (Death of the Endless, while she certainly knows, isn't telling). Batman does too, but names were changed to protect the innocent.
The center of all gossip in the entire Pantheon, as she's rumoured to have been going out with everyone, gender notwithstanding. Even with Companion Cube.
On extremely good terms with Masaya Aoyama, since the latter's temple has sometimes sheltered Inu-Yasha.
Originally, this title was offered to Ranma Saotome as an alternative to his current position as the God and Goddess of Gender Bending. There were no survivors.
Followers: Erio Mondial if one were to believe the doujinshi.
There were supposed to be 31 cards in his personal deck, but Evangeline was a bit... vampy, and he was afraid she would take initiative and go too far. The other refusal is... complicated, involving time travel and a blood relative. And then theres something about stealing harems from his Arch-Enemy
Thanks to his command of magic and his way with the ladies (especially Rydia the summoner, and surprisingly enough, Shizuru), the Elder Gods allow Negi to sit at the Big Gods' table during holidays so that they can hear of his "exploits". He roundly asserts that he doesn't have any, despite the stack of love letters he gets every month.
Has never been seen in the same room as Harry Potter... until recently. They're good friends, really.
Was once, upon mastering the KhiliplAstrape technique, offered the position of Deity of Lightning, but he turned it down. He nonetheless remains on very good terms with Nanoha & Fate, who often invite him over to talk about things (or so they say; everyone is shota for Negi, after all, even those who wouldn't normally be.
It was Recently revealed that in addition to being the son of the Strongest Still Mortal Mage Ever(according to some sources) he is also the Son of one of the oldest royal families ever, and his mother has been accused of destroying her entire country (though evidence points to her sibling Asuna being the true culprit).
It is theorized by other members of the pantheon that he can solve any problem by finding the right girl and making out with her. So far he's used kisses to both create a soul and break an otherwise undetectable disguise.
Has teased virtually every deity in the Pantheon with the chance to see her or the deity of their choice in a bunny suit. Reactions vary. Her favorite victim of teasing is Ichigo Kurosaki and recently Guy Cecil, who gives out the best flustered reaction, she thinks. Her goal is to make her boyfriend Kyosuke pull that reaction, but she has yet to succeed.
Usually her main 'victim' was Lamia, but after the deification of Setsuko and learning her dillema, Excellen shows a wise side and turns Setsuko to her main 'victim' in order to cheer her up. Lamia wholeheartedly agreed to the decision.
Tends to join BRIAN BLESSED in adding merriment to the Pantheon, and thus the great BRIAN BLESSED has considered her a rare breed of female Boisterous Bruiser. At one point as a result of that, Excellen insisted that her name be transcribed as (S)EXCELLEN BROWNING ♥, but got refused.
Erik the Opera Ghost has been argued by some as worthy of being the God of Lovelorn Grotesques, but this is generally disregarded since he wasn't all that noble. Moreover, Edward's physical state, as a lover who cannot touch his beloved, is just as isolating than a deformed face, if not more so. Edward was always willing to sacrifice himself for his Kim, and though he could successfully have been argued as acting in self-defense he accepted exile as punishment for taking a life. He also whined a lot less about it.
Granted godhood as a reward for his selflessness, he now provides snow to the entire Pantheon as he channels his emotions into art. (How else do you think he got all that ice?)
Sweeney Todd is believed to be Edward's evil counterpart. (They do look similar...)
Regarded by some as Tim Burton's avatar. (They do look similar...)
Sasami's role in the Love house is similar to that of a lady-in-waiting. While she knows she won't be the first one to land a mate, she doesn't lament her status, instead using her free time to fight evil.
Sei seems abnormally fond of hanging around Yumi's house during the day looking for a "hug". She's also stated on a few occasions how badly she wanted Shizuru to join Lillian, thinking she'd be a perfect fit.
Allies: Sigmund Freud (official), Laharl (unofficial- Laharl denies having anything to do with him), Sakura (closer to stalking, as she has no idea why that weird old man wants to be her friend and keeps trying to give her "tips" for "her little boy")
Is, at present, the oldest god in the pantheon in terms of date of ascension (he ascended in the fifth century BCE). He doesn't get any prestige or respect for this, however, as, well, the man fucked his mother, and that kinda Squicks everyone out. Well, everyone except Slaanesh, but she doesn't count in that sort of thing.
Nobody admits to being his follower (outside of the Appalachian foothills), but somehow he is quite popular nonetheless.
He's sick of being associated with this concept. He didn't know she was his mother aor that the guy was his dad. Of course, he seems to think that's the only thing wrong, glossing over the whole: killing a bunch of people for what was tantamount to cutting him off in traffic.
He argues that attempting to run someone off the road is not cutting them off in traffic.
Within a single day of entering the Pantheon, he was already involved in a complex misunderstanding involving the similarity of his name to that of a certain othergod, from which he is still trying to extracate himself.
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.
Has groped and rated every female member of the pantheon. The results are kept secret to avoid starting an "Apple of Discord" type war of the goddesses.
After reading one of Jiraiya's books and realizing that he Did Not Do the Research concerning boobies, she has attempted to educate him by helping him sneak into the Goddess' bath house. Due to Jiraiya's inability to keep quiet, all attempts have met with failure. Thus far, Paio II has managed to hide her involvement, and nobody believes Jiraiya when he claims she was helping him.
Likes talking with Rito due to him being one of the few people to have sampled as many breasts as her, though whenever the topic comes up(Read: every conversation), he gets too flustered to form a response. She also honestly believes that Rito loves breasts almost as much as her, but only subconciously. She has therefore made it her mission to help him see the truth. Rito and the other Goddesses are not happy with this, as the number of "accidents" has increased three-fold. No one suspects her involvement.
Having recently took over the role, neither will outright state whether they're an item or not. The Prince would also like you to know that he most definitely did not lock Douglas Fairbanks in a cupboard to get the job. No sirree.
Followers: William the Bloody has been known to drop by when he's really drunk or out of it.
Many of the members of the House were uncomfortable with Nina entering the Pantheon. Kaorin especially, since she would be sharing the position with her. However, Nina has promised that she is learning to become less racist and was allowed in due to her saving the Love House from Berii.
Sought After (And Creeped Out) by: Travis Touchdown
Selected by Haruhi Herself to increase the Pantheon's "cuteness" factor. Most of the male deities agree that it's working, claiming that Mikuru is the cutest/sexiest thing ever..
She is suspected to be an alternate version of Orihime, due to similarity in appearance, personality, and English voice.
The third member of their Power Trio, Kevin Levin, became persona non grata upon Ben and Gwen's ascension due to having been romantically linked to both of them at one point or another.
Allies: Tenchi Masaki, Negi Springfield, Ranma Saotome, Paio II
Followers: Keitaro Urashima, Yoichi Karasuma, the more meek sultans of the Ottoman Empire
Has seen or groped the breasts of almost all female members of the Pantheon. None hold a grudge for long, as all is always forgiven immediately following Rito being beaten to a bloody pulp.
After hearing of his bad sleeping habits, the other Gods and Goddesses once held a compettion between Rito and Negi revolving around who was worse when it came to sleep-groping girls. To that end, both had a volunteer Goddess slipped into their bed to see what happened. Rito was quickly declared the winner when a seperate Goddess was forced to pull the volunteer from Rito's bed, saying it was too embarrassing to watch anymore. Apparently while Negi will content himself to smooching and snuggling, Rito will lick and tease and fondle the girl, all while muttering about how good these sweets taste.
As a side note, Momo has been looking very smug since this incident, and the volunteer goddess hasn't been able to look Rito in the eye since.
No, he's not related to Terumi Yuuki, so don't bother asking
Certain members of the pantheon (Jim and Spock, Cloud...) continuously plot elaborate schemes to kill her and end the menace forever. These schemes never seem to work for some reason.
He/she often talks to a handoll by the name of Mr Hat. He even speaks for it. Most dieties either shrug about it or are not sure how to react to it. There are even rumors that the doll has a mind of it's own.
Domains: Strength, aloofness, inner insecurity, stammering, sparring sessions that conclude with awkward sexual tackles
Will insist that they should not be grouped together as one set of deities, as they're just friends, and even question their place in the Pantheon at all, as they clearly are not into each other that way. While stealing glances at each other and blushing.
At first, Fasalina was a servant of the God of Kidnappers, but after kidnapping and accidentally deifying Michael, she genuinely loved him and vice versa. After much disagreement with her patron God, Michael helped her break away from his rule and they relocate here. Although they were often labeled as 'misguided' or 'evil', they seem to be treating others kindly here.
They made their House really sturdy and impossible to fall down. One of the things that traumatized them are falling ceilings and rocks of death.
Guy keeps claiming that he likes beautiful women, but he always had some sort of seizures when he's near women. Excellen finds this cute and... Guy, explain.
Everybody gets aroused whenever Bayonetta walks, talks or fights. No exceptions. It helps that she's also pretty strong on her own.
She is such a formidable fighter that she was actually considered to join the Pantheon of War or the Pantheon of Combat, but her ally Dante suggested that this is where she most belonged, and she'd give the Pantheon of Love a powerful defender if it were ever threatened. Bayonetta accepted the suggestion with a smile, a wink and a lick of a lollipop. Many gods are still taking cold showers.
Many have thought she is Dante's long lost sister, but Bayonetta denies any claims of descendance from Sparda. She also has a very friendly relationship with Dante which would be... awkward if they were siblings.
Many Godesses of the Pantheon are still trying to find a way to replicate her hair, but none has succeded so far.
Is pretty much the biggest fan of Shuichi/Eiri and Himeko/Chikane and secretly draw doujins of them. Thankfully for her, she has yet to think that Het is Ew.
Has been asked threatened by Jin Kisaragi to draw doujins of him being shipped with Ragna the Bloodedge. Hiyori can't make up her mind whether she'd like Slash incest or not...
Is one of the deities to join Bang Shishigami to free Litchi from GUAE; since Mele didn't want her to dirty the status of a Love Martyr by joining evil despite the object of her Love Martyr seemingly not wanting her to do it.
She also shared Sayaka Miki's pain and secretly thinks Kyousuke Kamijou is an insensitive jerk. "Unlike Rio-sama, of course!" (Of course she didn't want to say that in front of Sayaka's face, unless really necessary)
Allies: Negi Springfield, who it is suspected will probably join Jecht's adult Memetic Sex God and Memetic Badass portfolio outright when he finally gets hit by the puberty stick
It's been confirmed that whenever Jecht is around, any ladies ignore their boyfriend and run over for him. He doesn't even need The Spectacles of Eros to do that.
Although Relius is a completely different matter, due to how Jecht ends up being in the GUAE and found out how Relius had his hand in coaxing Litchi Faye-Ling to the GUAE, which somehow mirrored how Melkor got him to the GUAE. If anything, this makes Jecht really hate Relius and will be the one to break the house's rule of 'No violence permitted' if he can beat down Relius, for being a disgrace of fathers, rubbing him off the wrong way, and not being sexy enough for his standards.
Followers: The League of Evil Exes possibly Edward Cullen
While already cold and distant as a boyfriend, Gideon became even worse after being dumped, using his resources to plague those who've spurned the affections of twisted men and women.
Scott Pilgrim Earned A Seat On The Pantheon! New Title: God of Fighting To Be With Your Love
Awesome God
New Symbol Unlocked: Heart T-Shirt
Alignment Level Up: From Chaotic Neutral To Neutral Good
Yuno is also the Goddess of Yandere and has a very bad reputation among the Pantheon. The Gods and Goddesses don't really care one way or another about Yukki. Not that it matters; everyone is too scared to approach due to Yuno.
The pair seems to spend most of its time alone in the Pantheon. Apparently other residents and visitors can hear the sound of chains rattling, but this kind of thing is normal here so no one comments.
Enemies: Virtually every good female diety in the house of love.
Ascended after escaping the Disgraces for becoming perhaps the 2nd most infamous Yandere in all of anime (behind Yuno of course) in one of the most notorious yandere scenes of all time.
Allies: Katara, Bryan Mills, Terra Branford, Sapphire Rhodinite. Gets along reasonably well with most good aligned deities in the house of love and family.
Followers: Amy Rose. Non action guys tend to appreciate Hungary and her followers for watching out for them.
Enemies: Yuno, Kotonoha. Yuno is very fond of tormenting Hungary via giving Hannibal Lectures about how they're Not so Different. Her rebuttal about the defense of one's love interest being no different than protecting one's kids and that Yuno is just a psychopath who uses Yukki as an excuse to murder people really pissed Yuno off.
Is frequently aided by Sapphire in part because Hungary's protective nature reminds her that her husband isn't nearly as strong as she is.
Followers: No one quite knows what it is about him that causes armies of lovestruck women (and more than a few men) to pour into his temple, but they do. Captains Jack Harkness and John Hart are often seen in the place.
Enemies: Edmond Blackadder and other men who have had their girlfriends, fiances and wives stolen from them by his mere presence.
Seems to be under the impression that all of the other gods in the pantheon have taken to worshipping him. And maybe a few have.
His pants are hotter than the surface of the sun. He doesn't wear underpants because they haven't invented a pair yet that can take the job on.
Has a thing for beards, claiming that they give him "something to hang onto!" He also feels most comfortable in a dress.
Thousands of his followers were prepared to commit suicide if he were to become a casualty while fighting during World War One.
Allies: Criminy, Flonne, Raspberyl, Midna, Sol Badguy, Zuko, Mele, Anemone, Adell, the Toku Base.
Enemies: Frollo, Long, Seymore.
Flonne was estatic upon seeing her and Criminy together (namely because it proves that she's right).
Mele was reluctant at first until she learned she and her "Rio-sama" would be in the same house. Thankfully, Fuschia did NOT flirt with Rio at all, thus Mele didn't really strike on this very house..
The Trolls, Gods and Goddesses of Multidimensionally Entangled Lovers (Collectively: Team Adorabloodthirsty; Individually: Aradia Megido, Tavros Nitram, Sollux Captor, Karkat Vantas, Nepeta Leijon, Kanaya Maryam, Terezi Pyrope, Vriska Serket, Equius Zahhak, Gamzee Makara, Eridan Ampora, and Feferi Peixes)
Ten of the twelve are Lesser Gods and Goddesses; Aradia Megido and Vriska Serket are Intermediate Goddesses
Symbol: Any suit of standard playing cards, or an arrangement of twelve appropriately colored zodiac signs
Alignment: Probably at least one of each (but most are Jerkasses)
Domains: Dream and Love are shared by all twelve, but they each have at least one other domain as well
Allies: Each troll has his/her own
Enemies: Each troll has his/her own, but they all oppose Lord English, and only Vriska doesn't oppose Terumi Yuuki, but they're not allies. Eridan, for example, used to oppose the entire House of Magic on the grounds that magic is fake.
The Romantic Comedy gonw Serial Escalation: Troll society has four different types of relationships, all based on biological imperative, which must all be fulfilled for each individual to reach romantic fulfillment. Naturally, this leads to problems.
Kismesis ("Caliginous Quadrant", ♠): Mutual hate that, somehow, leads to procreation in the same manner as matespritship.
Moirallegiance ("Pale Quadrant", ♦): Two trolls temper each others' attributes.
Auspistice ("Ashen Quadrant", ♣): This occurs when a third troll is introduced into a kismesis to stabilize the relationship so as to prevent kismeses from killing each other and destabilizing the social order.
Ascended after a lengthy explanation on how this all works. Gained power when it was later revealed that through Sgrub they created the universe.
Terumi considers some of them a "disgrace to the art of trolling" after having read some of their attempts. "Some" meaning "everyone that isn't Vriska or Terezi". And even those two clearly have emotional problems that Terumi just loves to mess with.
It's believed that if Vriska ever fought Bernkastel the universe would Divide by Zero from all the luck and probability manipulation.
Terezi can often be seen hanging around the House of Justice.
Sheryl Nome, Goddess of Hopes and Dreams (The Galactic Fairy)
Greater Goddess
Symbol: A golden heart-shaped loop with a butterfly wing spread from one side of the cleft (primary) or one of her earrings (secondary).
Followers: Ranka Lee, Otaku, Aspiring Singers, Heroes, May'n, Sydney Bristow
Favored Weapon: The Black Vega (her credit card)
Sheryl dropped her resumé off when she learned that the House of Love had the best sound systems in the pantheon. She was given the Playing to the Fetishes portfolio by unanimous decree.
The Playing to the Fetishes portfolio was subsequently imploded into Fetish Fuel in an evil scheme to oust her from the pantheon. Sheryl was able to hold on to a Lesser Goddess position by her other portfolios long enough to execute her own counter plan. With the Power of Love and Rock-and-Roll she was able to take the entireFetishes portfolio outright in battle. It was most epic (and sexy).
James Bond has been trying to seduce her since she walked into the lobby, but she had him pegged as a womanizer right from the start. He still hasn't succeeded.
She was promoted to an Intermediate Goddess after the second movie, in which Alto chooses her, thus resolving the Love Triangle depicted in the trope pic for Love Triangle (at least for many). Yeah, we thought that was grounds for a Love Pantheon promotion, too.
With the power of all fetishes at her beck and call, Sheryl has managed to propel herself all the way up to Greater Goddesshood. It is a portfolio Sheryl guards well, as she knows the competition for this powerful portfolio is strong, and is wary of any new deity who may try to steal it. Her grip on Greater Goddesshood is so far tenuous at best, but a hefty application of her favored weapon has so far worked.
She may need it, as lately some really freaky guys have been getting let into the pantheon.
Sheryl re-issued the Universal Bunny music video in the hopes it would make the point of why she has the Fetishes portfolio now, figuring that would do the trick. Some would say there are videos with far more fetishes than that, but critically Sheryl is the only person appearing on stage in this music video. There's just two of her.
She is just holding onto the Narcissism portfolio until Narcissus stops looking at his own reflection long enough to get into the pantheon, if he ever does. Then again, she did french kiss herself once, so one wonders if she has managed to out-Narcissus Narcissus.
She has a specialized power over Love Triangles that is simply as a well-timed flashback to a girl's first meeting with the Love Interest, which can make the apparent second girl actually turn out to be the first girl due to a forgotten memory. Because the first girl usually wins, this simple power can vastly improve a girl's odds of success, and due to the competitive nature of such a Love Triangle, therefore vastly reduce the other girl's odds of success. As a result, she is offered prayers by both girls, for she has great influence over the final choice, especially if the guy is one of those horribly indecisive types that drag it out for three years.
Being stuck on Serenity roaming the 'verse made the message of her acceptance into the Trope Pantheon of Love take much longer than expected. Most blame the Alliance Postal Service. Her entire resumé consisted of less than half a minute of footage, and we all know what footage that was.
Domain: Protection, Love, Illusion, Necromancy, Ars Goetia
Nobody knows for sure how they transitioned from sadistic Goetic demon kings to the fierce protectors of their loving adopted daughter Alice, herself now a Lesser Goddess in the House of Emotion. The full story is implied to be a horrific Tear Jerker, and the two of them keep it under wraps for her consideration.
The two of them represent part of the Goetia in the Pantheons.
Belial left a while ago for a deathmatch with the other contestants for the title of King of Bel; further details of the resulting battles pending. As a result of this, Nebiros is for the moment sole ruling deity of this portfolio until Belial's return. Needless to say, he's less than thrilled by having to manage it all by himself while still worrying about Alice, but hopes the best for Belial (which is, he'll realize that for all his power he might not stand a chance against the other contestants).
Allies: Rito Yuuki, Paio II, Tenchi Masaki, Tzeentch, Morrigan and Lilith Aensland, is on disconcertingly good terms with Audry II
Upon ascending, immediately and openly devoted herself to, by hook or by crook, finagling most of the unclaimed female deities (particularly O-Haruhi-Sama and Cosmsos) into Rito's harem. Most gods seem to be under the impression that she's kidding, but ever since she arrived, he's been accidentally groping female deities of significant rank and influence a lot more often...
Some of the more perverted Gods have tried to get her in the mood by touching her tail. It works most of the time.
Making a list of all the men she plans to sleep with in the pantheon. It contains at least half the male population of gods on it, and a third of those listed have been checked off.
Flonne is still trying to learn her the ways of a more proper angel. So far there has been little progress as Panty simply ignores her lectures in rder to find new men to sleep with, mortals or dieties.
Despite being underestimated by many members of the Pantheon due to her careless nature, she is actually one of the more skilled shooters out of all the dieties.
Enemies: Terumi Yuuki (After being finally told of the truth)
Formerly a follower of Parsee Mizuhashi (she technically still kinda), she used to follow Terumi and the GUAE all because Noel took away things she desired. It took the efforts of Edward Elric to bring her back to the GUAG. When she was told of the evils of Terumi and GUAE and how it corrupted NOL, Tsubaki finally knew what she had to do and aligned to the position of her dreams: Heroes.
Still, like Litchi, she is to be put in the Token Evil Teammates quarters until there is a clear message about her Heel Face Turn. Tsubaki didn't mind and considered it her atonement for being that much of a jealous girl. Noel, Jin and Hakumen at least visit her a lot.
Good or evil, there'a one thing that's constant. Her red hair is still gorgeous.
Occasionally Thinks Like a Romance Novel, something which many Gods would mock her over due to utter naiveness. Well they don't say it in front of Jin or Hakumen, though...
Strongly dislikes staying in the House of Love, finding all the naive, idealistic goddesses annoying. Often causes disruption by trying to torture them, or by trying to escape fro the House to be with her beloved Voldemort.
Brock, God of Polyamory (Brock Harrison, Tall Twerp, Takeshi)
Opposes: Sasuke Uchiha (Too much hate is not good for your health! You need to love more!)
As a big, avid former follower of Flonne, Heart is nonetheless overjoyed that she can enter the Pantheon and spread more about love... with force.
Has been seen hanging around with Ragna at times. Heart seems a bit fond to him.
She wonders if her love and Partinias can go toe to toe with Marisa's trademark Master Spark.
Chikane somehow reminds her of her best friend Saki Tsuzura. Thankfully for Heart, Chikane just accepts her as friend, not a threat to her relationship with Himeko.
After the temporary fall of Ma-ti, Heart has been appointed as one of his biggest heralds to continue on his fight for heart power until he returns, in which Heart is doing a damn good job.
Enemies: Tenchi, Negi, anyone else with a massive Unwanted Harem, Shinji Matou
Has attempted to have sex with almost every non-lolita female in the pantheon. Unlike Shinji, he has at least tried the "consensual sex" approach before attempting rape. Furthermore, he puts effort into making sure the women in question feels good in the process. There are rumors that some have actually fallen in love with Rance, but no one has confessed.
Despises Shinji since only he is allowed to rape other people. That, and he tried to rape Sill.
Managed to turn some lesbian couples in the pantheon bisexual and willing for Three-Way Sex, though they refuse to admit it.
Insists that he is a Super Hero and wants to get admitted into the House of Heroes and Villains.
Though he should logically be with the Disgraces, his likability and secret heart of gold have kept him in the House of Love.
Allies (uneasy they may be): Shuichi Shindou and Eiri Yuki, Himeko Kurusugawa and Chikane Himemiya
One of the most mysterious god in Love pantheon. His mortal life is short, but somehow inspire people across the world. Currently, mortal can find his images and tales everywhere, mostly abridged. Arguable though, that he isn't really a mystery man, other gods just don't want to know more about him.
Many gods object Abe during his ascension. Abe, being the manly man, simply invite them - individually, to private discuss. Most refuse and the few who accept his offer got turned by the wonders he has revealed to them. The court decided that those who still object Abe's godhood are closed minds who don't even give him a chance, and thus dismiss their objection.
While he is allies with the deities of Yaoi and Yuri, even Shuichi-Eiri and Himeko-Chikane are very uneasy with Abe, especially with just how FORWARD his techniques are.
