The other gods were impressed with his skills after watching him shoot both wings off a fly...at 100 meters...with a single bullet...from a revolver. Vash immediately felt bad for the fly and got Lenneth to restore it.
Within the space of a few seconds during a friendly challenge, Rushuna could have blasted the gun out of his hand three times, while he groped her five times. She didn't mind.
Status for God of Marksmanship was briefly contested by Revolver Ocelot, though Ocelot eventually conceded the match, having gotten a better offer elsewhere.
Only those with the largest of swords are worthy of entering his service. Guts left Cloud's service soon after the Eclipse went down and has declared war on demonkind.
Has a friendly rivalry with Rakan, the other god of Swordsmanship. He's not entirely certain why the other guy's there, but the sparing matches are both too awesome and much too enjoyable to complain.
Apparently, there are many, many (dashing) swordmasters aiming for his title. Fortunately for Cloud, most of them are too busy to fight him. Allen Schezar never showed up for their duel (was last seen heading for a hotel with one of Clouds high priestesses), Van Fanel forfited the match and dashed off yelling he has to "save her" (whatever that means), Link was reincarnated before their duel could start and Samurai Jack was whisked away by a time portal 5 seconds into the battle. So....yeah, he hasn't really worked to keep his title so far.
Jack Rakan, The Other God of Swordsmanship ("Rakan of the Thousand Blades" "The Ultimate Swordsman" "The Ultimate Mercenary" "The Ultimate Hard Worker" "The Man Who Cannot Die" "The Immortal Fool" "That Damn Guy Who You Can Stab With Swords All You Like And It Won't Do A Damn Thing, Damn it")
Greater God
Symbol: One Thousand Swords (His Artifact is "The Hero of a Thousand Faces")
Enemies: Few live long enough to earn this title, although his blase attitude towards most evil and fun personality don't hurt. Evangeline, while they are old friends... she has a tendency to make serious attempts on his life because he annoyed her. He takes the attacks in good spirits though.
Both a former Gladiator and War Veteran Jack Rakan has participated in countless battles that have forged both strength and skill over a period of forty years. Rakan is an exceptional battle analyst as demonstrated when he analyzed Negi's Raiten Taisou and pinpointed it's weaknesses only after observing it once. Despite this fact, everyone is the pantheon still thinks he's an idiot.
Joined the Pantheon because he damn well felt like it, and no one has the balls to tell him to leave (and those who do don't really care anyway). Has a friendly rivalry with Cloud, the original god of BFSs, who's really more confused than anything concerning the situation.
Augus from the combat house interests him, and even he finds Augus's sword to be amazing despite the size of his own swords. Augus possibly finds Jack worthy of his own blade. The pantheon fears the day they fight all out with each other.
When the plot calls for it, he has been able to borrow from Kamina's portfolio.
Destined to reincarnate in an endless cycle for as long as there is evil. Over the past two thousand years or so has started wearing a green tunic and pointy hat in each life for reasons he isn't sure about - every time he is born, he forgets very nearly everything, to the point of being surprised every time he learns that he is a god. This is just as well, considering the tantrum he threw the last time he didn't. Growing up and collecting all that weaponry is time consuming!
Appeared outside the House of Weapons shouting "JAAADDDEE!" which the gods initially thought meant a immortality potion. Turned out it was his niece messing with magic again.
Ratchet has a friendly rivalry with Link over who has claim to the most diverse arsenal. Vash admires Ratchet's efforts to save the galaxy, but frowns upon the destruction that frequently follows in his wake.
Against almost impossible odds, Duke finally got redeemed and ascended back into the pantheon proper due to actual release of Duke Nukem Forever, despite almost everybody debunking that happening as impossible. His response at his point of re-entry? "ALWAYS bet on the Duke!"
He and his followers are in constant strife with Dracula and his followers. Franziska is generally exempt from the fighting, preferring to prosecute their collective foes.
Additional testimony from Franziska reveals that she refuses to whip dead people, thus suggesting that she wouldn't take part in any actions alongside the Belmont clan. Regarding the rebuttal that the undead are not truly dead, it is inconclusive, but records show that she has never whipped Godot...
Currently wonders why these days he looked like Light Yagami...
Has a brother named Simone, whom he disowned for largely derailing his image. Any mentions of that big, oafish gaywad has became Simon's Berserk Button and it's one of the reasons why he hates Kevin Keene, because he didn't recognize his true self as Simon Belmont and thought Simone is Simon all along.
Many competed for his position in the pantheon, but he just slapped the grappling gun out of each challenger's hand and said "swing now." Every challenger hung his/her head in shame and walked away.
His followers have a slight rivalry with Mario's followers over the superiority of swinging over jumping.
Doesn't like it when people bring up the dreadlocks... or the moustache.
Cu Chulainn was elevated into this status since his death, but nobody took notice. Until Unlimited Blade Works, whereas he earns the notice of the Goddess of Zettai Ryouiki, Tohsaka Rin, who in turn help him restore his fame.
Likes to spar. Kenpachi has taken a slight liking to sparring him, but not as much as he fights Absolute Virtue (whom Lancer is also an avid sparring opponent). Kenpachi says "At least he lasts better than a certain clown Arrancar"
Somehow Naoki Kashima managed to get him as one of his allies in a very rough fight to test the abilities of one of his followers, Serph. In return, Naoki manages to suggest him an Axe Reaver spear to battle Barbatos Goetia.
Nearly lost his position after one event of being constantly killed for laughs all the time, something that even makes Kenny wince. He managed to reverse the events and even survived a bone crushing volleyball crash on the head that had Kyosuke Nanbu impressed that he retains his position.
Operates with a smaller set of weaponry than Cloud Strife, but is able to match him in divine power due to his ability to kill anything with his knife, including existence itself. This makes Shiki a very dangerous god, and he becomes ten times more dangerous if his "Nanaya" personality takes over.
Shiki Ryougi is just as powerful when it comes to knives (even sporting a more potent version of his Mystic Eyes), but he gets the job since he uses knives exclusively. She sometimes uses a katana, not that there's anything wrong with that. It's still awesome.
A number of Gods doubted the effectiveness of using fruits as weapons. Donkey Kong personally taught them one thing about coconuts: they hurt like crap.
Gets harassed from time to time by another Kong who claims to be a King. DK's response can be roughly summarized as "barrel to the face."
His temple is rather empty since Cranky Kong spends most of his time there, ranting about how he could have fulfilled DK's godly duties a thousand times better than him back in his prime.
Often gets into fights with Mario for a variety of reasons.
Edge, God Of Opportunists and Tables, Ladders and Chairs (The Rated R-Superstar, The Ultimate Opportunist, Adam Copeland)
Was sent to Hell by The Undertaker but somehow cheated him into sending him here. Rest assured, the Deadman will find him.
Ascended by using Money in the Bank against John Bradshaw Layfield, making him a mere mortal while securing his own spot in the pantheon.
He accended from Demigod to Lesser God after spearing The Gooker during the 8-Man Hell In A Cell Elimination match that determined the God of Pro Wrestling. He didn't win the match, but simply dealing a powerfull blow to the Disgraces was enough to grant him enough appreciation from the Pantheon.
The House of Love keeps a close eye on Edge. To say that they are annoyed by the fact that he has slept with many of the female members of the Pantheon who were already in a relation would be an understatement.
Edge has mastered the art of opportunism to perfection. He has been able to spear many dieties in a great variety of moments, sutch as during deep kisses, funerals, bathroom breaks, meetings, conserts, rousing speeches, recently earned victories, during the jumpscare of a screamer, birthdays etc etc. He has even given advice to ninjas of the Pantheon.
He is still in good relations with friend/brother Christian. Claims to be a "pseudo-vampire" during his time in the Brood.
As of 4/11/12 he has stopped wrestling due to a number of injuries. However, that doesn't mean he hasn't stopped becoming a master manipulator.
Tries to stay away from pretty much everyone else in the Pantheons, though with her wild hair, her good looks, and her...erm...agile fighting style, she's fairly popular (especially with Dante).
Secretly brought along her pet cats, and plays with them whenever she gets some time alone.
Some believe that Golden Darkness would able to take over this position in the Pantheon, if she actually tried to do it.
Recently likes visiting Litchi's hospital and share stories, often comparing their tales together. Millia is rather fond with her as a friend. Some say that Millia went VERY Not So Stoic than usual in her attempt to save her from GUAE.
Vita, Goddess of Hammers (Wolkenritter, The Iron Hammer Knight)
NOBODY messes with her hat. Anyone who does so shall receive a messy hammer-induced death. Not even the God of Hat Raidou Kuzunoha the 14th himself, though he avoided the messy hammer-induced death part.
As the Goddess of Hammers, it is prophesized that she will one day wield the Goldion Crusher when Guy is absent. A lot doubts that such a little loli can carry such thing. Vita's response?
"Bring it on."
Recently it has been revealed that Vita has blessed the next PSP Successor by engraving it with her name.
Before leaving the mortal world, Lockon has designated that Lyle, his Backup Twin is to take over his name. He's doing a good job so far in spreading his teaching in the mortal world.
He is criticized by the God of Revenge AbandonmentMikagami Tokiya for latching too much into revenge, which caused his downfall from Ali Al Saachez, and he'd never prevail if he continues to think about Revenge. Lockon seemed to have learnt his lesson, further fueled after watching his Backup Twin saying the same thing in the mortal world.
Followers: Mr. Driller, Andros the Red Space Ranger, and Ronny the Yellow Overdrive Ranger, Drill Man (Mega Man 4), Subject Delta and the Big Daddies (BioShock), Jill (Drill Dozer)
Allies: Kamina, Sigmund Freud (who is always trying to convince Simon that his drills represent a certain... something), Hayato Jin, Yurika Kirishima (she is the Goddess of Drill Hair, after all), Honda Tadakatsu.
Simon was originally the mortal companion and, later, prophet of Kamina (Who The Hell Do You Think He Is?!), God of Boasting and Speeches, and continues to do Kamina's work by wandering the universe righting wrongs and lifting spirits with the souls of his followers fighting at his side. He is prophesied to one day surpass Kamina in might and badassitude.
Simon is the equal and opposite force to Shinji Ikari, God of Psychosis. Though there exists no antipathy between the two gods, it is believed that should they ever meet, disaster would most surely befall the universe as Shinji's pure EMO and Simon's pure GAR cancel each other out in a massive matter/anti-matter reaction.
It is said that when Shinji unwillingly initiates the end times and before Kamina reshapes the universe with his unyielding power of awesome, Simon's drill shall pierce the raw firmament, carving out a space for the new universe to exist in.
Personally commissioned the Planet Killer as his personal flagship and captured several of the Imperium's Blackstone Fortresses during the last Black Crusade. If this doesn't reflect a healthy obsession with big stuff (like planets) exploding, nothing does. Liable to be strangled by Status Quo Is God, however.
Also has ready access to cyclonic torpedoes, the Life Eater virus, antimatter torpedoes, nukes, and things that produce Negative Space Wedgies.
Allies: Dominic Santiago, Augustus Cole, Damon Baird, Anya Stroud (in game), the Doom Guy, Master Chief, the Adeptus Astartes (in the Pantheon), Jack Cayman,
Leads the elite Special Ops team Delta Squad, which is often employed by the Pantheon when they need a four-man team to fight impossible odds and kick said odds' asses.
Was a strong contender for Char Aznable's position of God of Mecha Pilots, but while he's probably the better pilot, Char won due to style. The pair's rivalry continues.
Carl Macek once sought to obtain his power - the attempt resulted in the creation of an alternate-reality version of himself called Max Sterling.
Emiya Shirou's status as a Lesser God is the result of him being split between himself and his Future Badass self, Archer, God of GAR. The two cannot approve of each other, but if they ever came to terms, Shirou would become twice as powerful.
Somewhere in his temple, therein lies a beautiful mom-shell of a priestess of Huang Zhong named Shion, but renamed into his name and also inherited most of his skills. Considering that honor, other Gods have placed bets that Huang Zhong is actually a Dirty Old Man.
Excalibur is not really a fully sentient God, but rather a semi-sentiant weapon. THE weapon. Any sword ever created carries within a small spark from Excalibur. It's insane power and large influence on the universe (being able to cut trough anything - ANYTHING!!!) however, firmy cemented it's position in the Pantheon of War.
Being semi-intelligent, Excalibur doesn't really do much in the Pantheon....it just..stands there and sometimes picks it's wielder.
Normally it would be placed in the vault, but since it IS semi-sentient - and since no one daresto try to move it when it doesn't want to - it currently stays where it is.
Occasionaly it will send one of it's many avatars to help mortals in their struggles. Interestingly enough, all of his avatars seem to look different and have varying levels of power. One of his avatars has lately been seen in posession of Arturia.
Currently wielded by Capricorn Shura, guardian of his temple.
Batman has recently been sucking up to Excalibur, as he plans to use it against Mister Rogers if he ever turns bad. He didn't need to, because Excalibur loves Batman.
Ascended after his appearance in Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy made him one of the most prominent Adaptational Badasses of the series. Loves to talk to his worshippers about his adventures, even if much of what he says doesn't come out the way he means.
Once took Ratchet and Attenborough out to the rifle range and challenged them to see who could hit the most targets. A commitee is being held to determine if the incident could finally qualify as proof of the existence of "too much dakka".
Resents Cloud's position as God of Swordsmanship, but has deferred to him since his own elevation to the Pantheon.
Sometimes places Arthas as his stand-in so that he can resume Walking the Earth in disguise for a time. This has become a bit harder to do in recent times due Arthas embracing the Lich King more and more.
Enemies: Teana Lanster (who, although she uses a similar combat style, frowns upon Revy's callous and violent methods)
Some members of the Pantheon likes to compare her to Lara Croft at times. None of them dares to do it in Revy's precense due to her short temper, though.
Her opponents have grown used to not trying to Bad Ass Boast when fighting her. She often takes it as the perfect opportunity to load them full of bullets.
Since they belong to different factions (GUAG and GUAE), Revy often fights against Noel Vermillion whenever they cross paths.
Although he is only an Intermediate God, Black Bolt is listed as one of the men capable of destroying the Pantheon. That is, if he ever shouts on the level of BRIAN BLESSED! He never wants to, though.
Allies: Luffy, Nami, Usopp, Sanji, Tony Tony Chopper, Nico Robin, Franky, Brook, Cloud Strife, Jack Rakan, Date Masamune
Opposed by: "Hawk-Eyes" Mihawk, Tashigi, Sanji
Once was thought to be the God of Bushido, but it turns out he just got lost on his way to this house and stumbled there. Once he realized what the hell just happened, he quickly corrected the mistake and finally located himself here. It took him about 100 tries, but he finally made it.
Erza Scarlet objected to his appointment as the God of Dual-Wielding, as not only does she dual-wield often, she sometimes quadruple-wields or goes even further. As a result, she challenged him to a duel, which is still ongoing.
All the Houses and vehicles have switched to reinforced windows since the sudden spike in "mysterious and coincidental" breakages that happened when he arrived.
Was just challenged to a duel by Sogeking, sometime helper of the God of Pirates. Sogeking claims that he is a much better wielder of a slingshot than Dennis and points to his exploits on Enies Lobby as proof. He plans to move from there to challenging Lockon Stratos for the position of God of Snipers. At which point he might hand things over to Usopp...
Dennis is not worried, as he is receiving support from the Council Of Shadows, who are concerned about a pirate takeover attempt of the pantheon. Besides, Dennis thinks he fits the stereotype of the slingshot user better, and as such expects backup from elsewhere if need be.
Followers: Bobobo Bobo Bo, G1 Starscream and Soundwave (which doesn’t sit well with Tsukasa as he’s trying to throw off the villainous image)
Allies: The Toku Base, which he remains a member of but has given up his Patron Saint title in favour of ascending. Also Mega Man and Ichigo Momomiya.
After having to die and be revived by his allies to ensure that people who would have otherwise stayed dead come back to life, the Pantheon recognised that this combined with the fact that Tsukasa has save billions upon billions of people as a result allowed Tsukasa to ascend. Has usable and/or blank cards for most, if not all of the pantheon members' universes, and the members themselves.
Tsukasa is occasionally accompanied by fellow Toku Base members and Kamen Riders Yuuske and Natsumi, the latter usually to stop Tsukasa from getting big headed.
Ichigo Momomiya clashed with Tsukasa when he first ascended due to seeing him as a Canon Sue. After helping her foil a sneak attack by an agent of Berii’s the two have become friends. Berii's last words after her plan was foiled was "ONORE DICKEIDO!!"
Even with his ascension, his pictures are still poor quality.
For all the worlds that Tsukasa and his fellow travelers have gone to, not once have they met any group, let alone Earth Prime's group of Sliders led by Quinn Mallory
Seems to be making as much of a mark as he can in the Pantheon... which giving that this was essential in reviving him last time, seems to be Tsukasa being paranoid
Baran Doban 3:16 - "If a Super Robot-sized wrecking ball smashing you upside the face faster than the speed of sound isn't the purest definition of Epic Flail, well what were you thinking!?"
She is the finest there is for Dio's students. Like Dio, she also dislikes Terumi Yuuki since his tirade against vampires also goes to her mistress Remilia.
Allies: Zuko, Kamina, Vulkan, Bang Shishigami, Fuschia, Raspberyl, Ieyasu Tokugawa, as well as most gods of Martial Arts.
Enemies: Overlord Zenon, Laharl and Etna (to a certain degree).
His goal in life is to defeat Overlord Zenon. He normaly would stand a good chanse, if Zenon didn't posses Rozalin, that is.
Though he doesn't call them enemies, he does feel uneasy around the precense of Morrigan and Lilith Aensland due to some bad experiences he has had with succubi in the past. He also seem to be one of the few people in the Pantheon who can resist their charms.
Also another reason for him to be here is to protect Baiken who's still in mortal coils. Not that she needed it... but still.
Due to the events in the Pantheon, Anji is considered to be Litchi's rival. They used to be friends when she's in the GUAE, but while she left (because she was unwilling in the first place), Anji opted to stay and still sought for the secret of That Man from GUAE. There are rumors that one day he may be ordered to retrieve her back...
Has been attracting those of opposite sex for some reason. Jecht finally thinks he's got a competition, but claims Anji's got a long way to go in terms of Memetic Sex.
Ascended after Dissidia 012 finally made him playable after years of cameos in other games in his universe. His followers insist his name be spelled in all capital letters, unless one is referring to a "Gilgamesh" other than this one.
A wall in his chambers hosts his collection of rare and powerful weapons from across the universe. Gilgamesh claims to own the weapons of every other member of the Pantheon, despite the fact that they mostly retain such weapons for their personal use. Investigation into this revealed Gilgamesh's copies of the weapons to be counterfeit, but he hasn't been informed of this yet as he's too busy gazing lovingly at them.
His four main weapons when he battles are the Zantetsuken, a copy of the Masamune, the Excalibur, and the Excalipoor. He also tends to just grab random weapons off his wall. He's lost more than a few fights due to his tendency to do this and leap into battle without paying attention to what weapon he's actually using.
When asked why he keeps the useless Excalipoor around and doesn't just throw it away, Gilgamesh explains he fears he'll get it mixed up with the Excalibur and will accidentally dispose of the wrong one. Those who have followed his exploits note that he's almost always looking for the Excalibur in whatever world he visits even if he found it in a previous world, and suspect this mix-up to be the reason why.
Has a complex relationship with Exdeath, God of Evil Trees, in the Nature Pantheon. Having formerly been a bungling second-in-command to him, Gilgamesh is referred to by Exdeath as "that useless fool". Gilgamesh however harbors no enmity towards his former superior and has thanked him for banishing him to the Void and allowing him to travel to other worlds for sword collection. When Exdeath responded by offering to do it again, Gilgamesh fled.
Not to be confused with Gilgamesh, God of Self-Grandization in the House of Mentalism. The two briefly crossed swords, ending with one of the Gilgameshes fleeing and the other being impressed enough with his skills to not pursue him. Though those who have heard the tale are confused over which of them ran, people who know this Gilgamesh understand entirely.
Rose from the grave due to the efforts of his trusted vassal Ishida Mitsunari. Hideyoshi plans to resume his conquest... as well as vengeance on Ieyasu who killed him.
He actually sought interest in the Disgraces section. That is, the Gods over there just serves as humanoid bodies to be used by him in smacking his foes. Though his bare fists are no slouch either.
Has a friendly rivalry with Raoh. Due to their stances within the GUAE and GUAG, they often come to blows... and respect each others' strength.
Despite being one of the kindest gods in the Pantheon, most knows not to get on his bad side. The last person who decided to mook him one night in the House of Food ended up looking like a hedgehog...if its spines were made of poison darts.
Has been hanging around with Pikachu for a wile. Considering that his precense makes Teemo calmer and happier, sevral dieties has encouraged this newfound relation.
When the word spread that he had joined the GUAG, the GUAE decided to increase their budget on mine sweeping and stealth detectors 7 times above the previous budget. Considering the damage that his mushrooms can cause and how well he can hide in comparision to most gods, the forces of evil considers this a necesary meassure.
Allies: None. Most of the stronger deities have little use for him, and weaker ones are wary to work with him.
Enemies: Kenshiro, Shin, Most any of the more honor bound deities.
Despite Jagi's insistence that he is the true successor to Hokuto Shinken, the other deities felt that he reliance on weapons earned him his place here.
While Alpharius is representative of the Combat Pragmatist taken to a strategic level, Jagi is more of a bruiser. He does plan things out to some degree, but it's rarely more advanced than just finding some way to hurt the other guy as much as possible be it spitting needles, burning gas, or using pillars as clubs. That being said, many of the weaker deities are still somewhat wary of Jagi. They are VERY aware that there is no level he will not stoop to in order to gain an edge, and is somewhat unpridictable because of that.
In spite of his rather humiliating defeat, he still stands that he can defeat Kenshiro and is constantly planning for a re-match. Most of the other Deities are forming a pool to bet on just how long he'll last this time.
Still bitter from their personal war a few years back, an explosive battle of epic proportions broke out upon their simaltaneous ascension over who'd get the slot. Fortunately, Captain America was able to make them see reason, him being a fellow WWII veteran even though Soldier never enlisted and Demoman sobered up.
