War
Some deities ascend to the Pantheon through their sheer power and mastery in combat. After all, Gods are supposed to be powerful. Whenever there is war, or there is an invasion, these beings are called into action and lays down sheer ass-kicking to those who dare endanger the Pantheon. These are the beings whose combat abilities have reached godlike levels and thus take their seat amongst the Pantheon.
The realm of War is a varied landscape, alternating between city and forest and tunnel and ruin and arena. Basically, if you can fight in it, on it, under it, or around it, it will be there. Any sparring between the gods tends to take place here, with surroundings chosen by mutual agreement (though most aren't all that picky). Sparring between the gods also tends to take place at the nearby House of Combat.
The place is always being constantly destroyed and rebuilt. So far, the House of Commerce has made a huge fortune off contracts to repair the damage caused by the constant battles. Some have questioned what, precisely, this section of the Pantheon is beneficial to. The traditional response is "absolutely nothing".
Mars, Maiden of Battles
Allies: The Unconquered Sun, Luna, the other Maidens
Followers: The Sidereal Exalted, particularly the Chosen of Battles
It is the role of Mars to determine how all conflicts, great and small, will play out. Many in this House recognize her as their leader—as for the rest, she's obliged to knock a few heads about when she wants something done. Don't let the term "Maiden" fool you; she's more than up to the task.
One of the Duumvirate of War, alongside Kratos. They take turns taking charge based on the situation, with Mars covering Tactical and Defensive warfare. Do not mistake this for a harmonious relationship, however; Mars cordially despises Kratos, and would much prefer his style of warfare to have no divine backing at all. His recent actions have given her another opinion though.
Has inevitably clashed with that pretty boyDante, both frequently destroying entire countries in a completely awesome way. They have both agreed to limit their conflicts to constant one-upmanship.
He won his title from Kratos Aurion. He enjoys the increase to HP and INT.
Has an extremely short temper and a really good memory for grudges. The Gods of Prophecy stay as far away from him as metaphysically possible, and for VERY good reason, he has a bad habit of screwing destiny.
One of the Duumvirate of War, alongside Mars. They take turns taking charge, with Kratos covering offensive war, and all forms of berserker and mindless rage-based combat. Don't assume this means they get along, though; Kratos hates Mars and everything she stands for, and would utterly destroy her given half a chance.
Despite his nature, Kratos is actually driven by the power of hope, which he ultimately spreads to the mortals.
OK with Kratos, unless you mention the console war...
His current relationship with the goddess Samus Aran is unknown. She has not returned any of his calls.
The Doom Marine, The One-Man Army (The Marine, Flynn Taggert, A Berserker-Packing Man-And-A-Half, The Boy Packin' 50 Pounds of Heavenly Joy, John Stalvern Doom Guy)
Intermediate Deity
Symbol: His own two hands
Alignment: Chaotic Good (Hey, he hates demons and likes fluffy bunnies)
Is in fact a 12.0 on a one to ten scale of badness. He's dynamite, even...and cooking with gas!
The only guy bold enough to think he can take on both Khorne and Gig without the use of the BFG-9000. He'll let his uber-manly fists do the talking for him. Rip and tear!
He does have a little trouble following a conversation, remembering what allies are for, or keeping hold of a plot. The Doom Marine is most effective if you can drop him into the heart of enemy territory, point him at a foe, and say, "Kill them dead!"
Is concerned for our childrens' future due to all the radioactive waste, which he has fallen in. That can't be good.
Allies: Any god of a good alignment who values courage and determination is his ally by default, but even moreso if they are Super Robot pilots. In specific, Noriko, Ryoma and Musashi, and Kamina will always stand by his side. Aside of Super Robot pilots, one of his staunchest allies is Link.
He presides over an ultra-manly area of Valhalla, reserved mainly for killed-in-action Super Robot pilots, who in turn act as manly Valkyries for his brethren. This area was formerly the area where Guy uses the Goldion Crusher, it turns into an awesome realm.
Allies: Simon, Guy, any good-aligned deities, especially those who are manly and pilot giant robots.
Domains: Mecha, Speeches, Manliness, Trust
Kamina always scheduled time to give a speech to the masses at his chambers about manliness, trust and general badassery when he first ascended, but after the second time the Pantheon got too crowded from the masses clamoring to hear him, so he began holding them elsewhere.
Simon the Digger was once Kamina's prophet, wandering the world and drilling through the impossible; he ascended as a lesser god in Kamina's service as the patron deity ofdrills. Simon has learned well from Kamina, and may well surpass his mentor.
Kamina is the only being to ever tolerate Leeroy Jenkins, because he does share his philosophy, "Reasoning should just be kicked to the curb!"
When the final battle of good and evil comes, Kamina has been pre-appointed by Cosmos to give a speech to get her warriors fired up and ready for the conflict. Reportedly, according to those who overhear him practicing, part of it goes "Don't believe in yourselves. Believe in the Tropers who believe in you!"
In addition to the usual, Kamina boasts he's the Trope Namer for Beyond the Impossible, and will show video footage of his battles with Simon to any who need explanation of what he was talking about.
Shares a strong friendship with the previous Unlosing Ranger Pirohiko Ichimonji, Who is to Super Hero's as Kamina is to Super Robots. The two met briefly when Pirohiko had a near death experience via Car Accident. The two found that they both share the same life values and also a similar relationship to their younger successors.
Rivals: Amuro Ray, Max Jenius (another of the top contenders for this domain, and possibly a better pilot, but Char won on style)
Has created several avatars of himself, such as Zechs Marquise, Harry Ord, Schwarz Bruder, Rau Le Creuset and Graham Aker. This allows him to respond to prayers three times faster than other gods. Elzam von Branstein was formerly an avatar of Char, but ascended in his own right by overriding Char's theme music.
His priests wear red robes and mieters with command antennae. This doesn't make them any faster, but bless them, they're trying.
Domains: Courage, Martial Arts, Energy Beams, Axes, manly sideburns
Allies: All Gods who are in any way involved with Super Robots defer to him. Also, any Gods who represent ideals of hot-bloodedheroism earn his respect. His fellow Getter pilot Musashi, Guy Shishioh, Kamina and Noriko, in particular, are always there for him and him for them.
Followers: A great deal many, but he only respects those who live up to his very strict standards.
His place was supposedly reserved for Kouji Kabuto. However, after he was once reduced into the sidekick of Duke Fleed, Ryoma takes his place.
Any God who wants to earn Ryoma's respect must be manly, brave and determined. Ryoma does not suffer wishy-washy gods. Any God with an Evil alignment is a target to him.
Isn't quite sure what to think of ShijiIkari. On the one hand, the kid's practically King Wuss in day-to-day life. On the other hand, when push comes to shove, the little dude completelyflipshislid, which earns some of Ryoma's grudging respect. The question of where exactly Eva Unit-01 falls between Super Robot and GiganticHumanoid Abomination also causes some confusion.
Doesn't care when, where, why, and how. All Khorne cares about is whether the rest of the pantheon has met the minimum number of mortals killed, and he enforces that rule with sheer brute force... as well as his army of bloodthirsty, berserk Space Marines armed with chainsaws of almost every kind. Saw great potential in Omega and promoted him to god of Robotic Psychopaths.
Domains: City, Corruption, Knowledge, Pain, Retribution, Trickery
Followers: The Order Of Black Knights. ...Kinda. Kallen Kouzuki, daughter of Domon Kasshu, depending on how badly he's teased her, recently. UFN Chairwoman Kaguya, ruler of half the known world. Probably the reason why his public appearances are heralded by busty Japanese and Chinese girls throwing black rose petals in his path. His little sister, Nunnally, ruler of the OTHER half of the known world. Well, since his ascension, at least.
When not plotting ways to overthrow evil empires, Lelouch engages in the game of kings: chess. Few people who have played him have asked for a rematch. He is one of the few who could challenge Light Yagami-one of his greatest nemeses-without using any form of magic.
As of this day, Lelouch is taking care of the rebellion of HIS OWN PEOPLE against him. Some say his mortal brother Schneizel is behind this, but Lelouch already suspects Light to be behind Schneizel. Turns out it's Aizen and Palpatine.
He sees Isara Gunther as someone he'd like to protect, as she reminds him of his mortal sister Nunnally Lamperouge. However, Isara is very much abhorred with him. Upon investigation, Lelouch found out that when she was mortal, she was killed in cold blood by someone who acted and sounded like him: Emperor Maxmillian. This hardens Lelouch's ambition to topple him, alongside the God he worshipped: Palpatine.
There are cults dedicated to an older god who held this post, whose name has been lost, but whose epithets "The Prince of Revolution" and "The Steel General" remain; there are prophecies that he will return to reclaim on his eight-legged horse of steel and diamond one day, to reclaim his position. Only fitting, considering the nature of the position.
May or may not have implanted commands into the minds of the Gods - or their followers - that he doesn't get along with. And maybe some that he pretends to get along with.
Actually every bit as dangerous without his mind control powers as with. May or may not secretly be a Kamen Rider knockoff, or have the power to summon Giant Mecha with his eyes. Or both.
Followers: Varies by incarnation, but includes Peter Cullen & this guy (see #2).
"Freedom is the right of all sentient beings" (Optimus 1:1). Seeks universal unity ("Till all are one" (Optimus 3:31)
Not very happy about being in the House of War, but he won't disobey an order from Primus, and will never hesitate to fight against tyranny. Has been killed multiple times, but is so guaranteed to get better that he simply hangs out at a bar instead of waiting in the Afterlife.
Domains: Right behind a Rebel starfighter ensnared in its tractor beam. Or a renegade Imperial starfighter. Or any starfighter. Or anything else that's airborne for more than ten seconds
...just...the King Hell God Emperor Starfighter of Death. Everyone agrees on this.
While the Death Star and Unicron are locked in their endless battle in the skies above the Pantheon's garden, the Imperial Missile Boat circles them, engines roaring, ensuring that no one disturbs them or, indeed, gets too close. Leaves only at the order of Thrawn and for those occasional mandatory tune-ups and refueling. When the Death Star and Unicron part, the Imperial Missile boat has spare time on its landing struts. Mostly, it spends that time carefully hiding who or what, if anything, sits in its cockpit.
Symbol: A pair of all-red glowing eyes on a blue background, or the Imperial crest
Alignment: Lawful Evil, sometimes leaning Neutral to the rest of the Pantheon. To those who serve under him, he seems Lawful Good. No one really knows.
Commands the Imperial Missile Boat, but has so far only had to call it down to take out an enemy once.
Currently dead. Or is he?Yeah, he is. Had a few clones set up, and now waits for the right time. Being dead and in the Pantheon isn't as big a deal as being dead in the rest of the galaxy.
There was a time when Grand Admiral Thrawn and Lord Haverlock Vetinari had never been seen at the same time. It passed.
In a House filled with hot-blooded maniacal melee fighters and epic One-Man Army-on-One-Man Army fights, he's very out of place. But real War, the kind with armies and fleets and a command structure and supply lines and prisoners, requires strategy, and no one does it better than Thrawn. It's rumored that his inclusion is a sop to realistic war, so that its proponents don't have this House relabeled "The House of Fighting".
Never actually became a god, and so isn't technically fallen; though he showed great potential many eons ago (in video game time; i.e. about twelve years back), his church never quite caught on, and so he lies dormant. There are always rumors among his few followers that he may be waking up soon, but since he has been surpassed in most of the categories he was once so impressive in, it is unlikely.
CATS would like to remind the rest of the pantheon that they have no chance to survive and to make their time.
After all, all their centers of operation have become his property.
Used to be the God of Conquest... until he was hit by Alexander's Ionian Hetairoi, stripping his former title of Conquest and reduced his Godhood level. He still managed to take over one base to retain his place here.
The 501st, Legion of The Gods and Gods of Mooks (Vader's Fist, the Five Hundred And First)
After seeing the House of Defense resembling a pigsty for the 37th time in a month, Captain America sought a restructuring of the House. Several failed attempts later, Cap decided to seek an already formed and properly unified military force to occupy the mostly-empty House. Darth Vader, seeing a chance for advancement, offered his squadron. From there, the 501st became stationed in most areas of the Pantheon (Although only this House and the gates to the Disgraces have more than a Five-Man Band regularly stationed).
While Lord Vader possesses their utmost loyalty, they do defer to Master Dream, Mistress Haruhi, and the Captain himself, if only so their Lordship will never be among The Fallen or Disgraced (the Captain is a favorite, as he hates it when they die and doesn't really punish them outside of non-violent reprimands). Lately, they started training under the Taskmaster and taking orders from Grand Admiral Thrawn, and they've actually started doing very well.
Half of them are the most elite of stormtroopers, picked from across the Empire. The other half started off as cosplayers with really, really good costumes.
Enemies: pretty much everyone who looks at her son the wrong way, especially Gendo Ikari. She is also, perhaps ironically, openly hostile against Kaworu Nagisa, particularly since the latter is one of Shinji's precious few allies from his planar origin. Kaworu has yet to remark on his opinion of yui.
Once he sets his sight on something... practically nothing can stop him. Damages? He regenerates at the face of them.
Was about to be titled 'God of Warmongers With Cockroach Tenacities', but since he no longer actively seeks war, his title is degraded. His record, however, remains, causing him to be constantly contacted by Jade Curtiss to help him on war.
Likes to spend good times chatting with Zaraki Kenpachi, or fighting each other (Kenpachi likes the idea fighting someone far bigger than his size and regenerates practically endlessly), while letting their Perky Female Minions play around.
At one point, he's struck with amnesia, acts silly and starts wooing the girls in the Love Pantheon. He fails horribly, until he's knocked on the head and regains his memories.
Has constantly told his follower Seiya that there are limits of being a Determinator, taking it too much can make a dislikable character. Unfortunately for him, Seiya also never gives up in being so stubborn, making things harder for him, but he never gives up in telling him. He does find Seiya's tenacity... useful at times.
Has started to take an almost fatherly liking towards Naruto and has even considered training him. The Pantheon is split as to whether this would be a good or bad idea.
Keeps check on some Gods that deal in strategies such as Light Yagami and Grand Admiral Thrawn, to see whether they will plan out something horrible.
He has seen a lot of sad events with a smile. But he never once budged his smile. His reply? "Oh, not at all. I'm actually crying on the inside, wracked with guilt."
Once visited Shigekuni Yamamoto Genryusai's House with other Gods, and while they are feeling the intense heat, Jade stays calm and cool. When they ask why he looks so comfortable, he replies, "Oh, not at all. I'm so hot I could just die."
Role Call: The Major, The Doctor, The Captain, First Lieutenant Rip van Winkle, First Lieutenant Zorin Blitz, Warrant Officer Schrodinger and Tubalcain Alhambra.
Intermediate Gods
Symbol: A swastika and the number 1000 splattered with blood
Domains: Ant people, Plant Hybrids, Strength in Numbers
Followers: They don't have followers, but have alot of leaders.
Upon ascencion, they've managed to infest every household. There are now billions of them all over the place. A few enterprising Gods and Goddess managed to put them to good use and get them to do gruntwork and menial tasks. Most others are merely annoyed.
Being so small and having very few survival skills, the Pikmin can easily be killed by alot of things. The most common way for Pikmin to die in the houses is to be stepped on by other gods and goddess. Great care must be taken when you are around Pikmin, or you'll be forced to listen to their plaintive death cries if you accidently step on a few. Pikmin don't have graves.
Followers: Good luck finding them...they're still hiding after his last drills.
Accended after he made an entire squad of demons make pushups untill they cried.
His main job in the Pantheon is to train mortals that wishes to join any of the military forces that makes up the Pantheons defensive force.
His obstacle course in the mortal world was not tough enough for the Pantheon, so he added some lava pits, crocodiles, laser beams, living thornbushes and bees!
Is often accused for handing out steroids to his creations, considering that nearly all of them has the muscle structure of 3 bodybuilders and smiles as little as a as a poor child in a warzone.
Allies: China against Mongols, Allies against Axis, Rebellion against Empire, NATO against Soviets, Alliance Against Horde, GDI against Nod, Humans against Aliens, Protoss Vs Zerg, Thin Crust against Deep Dish, the commander plays for all sides without discrimination.
The Commander continues to command countless battles across time and space. This supreme commander commands and conquers in total war often against total annihilation, from the dawn of war to beyond endwar, some say living only for the craft of war.
Despite skirmishing throughout the age of empires the Commander is also a force of creation having guided civilizations, and fostered the raise of nations.
Despite having more command experience than everyone else on this page combined, the Commander's abilities varies greatly with very little constancy. Sometimes the Commander cansuccessfully hold against more than one third of the War Pantheon while the next day losing space battleships en masse to muggle spearmen.
The Commander has never actually been seen anywhere in the Pantheon, but receives and accepts missions from all Houses and Factions by way of Full Motion Video Cutscenes.
Thankfully, as long as Plot Armor isn't involved, the Commander can hold the entire universe at bay, provided he has two trees, and a single person with ten minutes to spare. Thrawn is working on cutting it down to five minutes by sending orders via FMV, but progress is slow, and pixelated.
One day in the pantheon everyone was doing there own thing when some of them heard this weird noise, like a distant rumbling sound. Glancing around, they deduced it was coming from one the larger Gods. Most went back to what they were doing, others walked around the Pantheon trying to find out who or what was making the noise, when suddenly a hundred Baneblades roar out from nowhere, crushed the walls of the War house, and gunned down some of the 501st. How the hell can a hundred tanks sneak into the Pantheon unnoticed? Must have taken some kind of tactical geni-
CREEEEEEEEEEEEEEED!
Vance Stubbs called, he wants his Baneblades back.
Does not get along very well with Thrawn. The matter of which one is superior is still ongoing, as evidenced by the variety of new craters visible daily.
Some get into the pantheon through their mastery of military command, and some get in by being a sheer Badass, but Sheryl Nome got in because she hired a Bad Ass Army to get the job done when no one else would.
Ozma Lee: "So the Galactic Fairy has become the Goddess of Battle?"
Really, do we need any other justification?
Her official artwork from the second movie by itself makes it clear she's a War Goddess, wearing a shredded military uniform against a battlefield covered in fire and planting a flag of victory into the ground.
Heroes pray to her for success and survival, and she may show them her favor, especially if they're hot Bishōnen fighter jocks. Those favored may hear her singing, if she chooses to sing for them, which will fill The Hero with a HotbloodedUnstoppable Rage, providing a huge force multiplier to the pilot's Badass level. Note: Survival and skill power up only extends to the physical pilot, and NOT said pilot's Cool Plane, which may or may not get shot up (or down) in the process of your Crowning Moment of Awesome. Really, you better appreciate getting just that much favor, she does not do this kind of service very often.
A duel deity with a dangerous nature: one moment she is a kind, tragic figure who sacrifices her own peace for this of others. One moment later, she can be a cold murder machine who doesn't care who she kills as long as they scream nicely.
Enters the Pantheon by trampling the former God of Conquest, CATS, with his Gordius Wheel. When CATS retaliated, he instead used the Ionian Hetairoi on his whole fleet, decimating him and lowered his level. Alexander has stated that CATS was just the beginning, the whole Pantheon is next!
He possibly amassed the strongest army in the Pantheon, nameless they may be.
Followers: Saji Crossroad, and anyone dragged into a war that they hate.
His first order of business in becoming a god of war is to try to get out of it. Try as he might, he only succeeds in drawing more attention to himself. He often gets into fights with the members of the gods of war by trying to make them stop making war.
Accended to the Pantheon after assisting Arnold, Sylvester Stalone, Chuck Norris and Sam Jackson in a battle against the GUAE by hangliding from the top of a mountain with a giant dragon (that he killed with nothing but a stone axe and some wodden arrows) wile firing with a massive man-sized machinegun with 12 bulletholes against soldiers from the GUAE as the ground behind him was exploding with the force of a hundred burning napalms before finally dropkicking Red Skull (who was leading some Nazi forces for that battle) while letting out his famous shout that could be heard through the entire world, driving back the Nazi troops of the GUAE! All of this as the Yor theme song was playing!
SanadaYukimura, God of Foot Soldiers (Sanada Nobushige, Yukimura, Sanada Genjirou Yukimura, Japan's No 1 Soldier)
Lesser God
Symbol: Crest of Sanada clan... with the word bubble "OYAKATA-SAMAAAA!!!" nearby
