Welcome to the Trope Pantheons thread! Please read the rules:
- When writing a profile, take note of the following:
- Gods cannot be followers or high priests for obvious reasons. The 'gods' have ascended meaning there is no need for said character to be a follower of another if they have ascended.
- No hype profiles, please. 'Hype Profiles' are profiles that have been made out of ongoing events and have not been around for a long time. This creates 'hype' due to popularity and certain elements either through certain scenes, memes, dramatic acting or considered overly awesome. They are not bad tropes but building a portfolio solely for that is a bad idea, as they do not say a thing about representing the trope best (unless it's those trope concepts that they are trying to embody for a long time)
- You can see one if the profile is only showing off how awesome they are or suddenly pushing how 'significant' they are thanks to the just very recent events rather than respecting the longstanding good representations of the trope. And usually having... minimum portfolio or flavor texts and being a bit too generalized or self-contained to events from within their home series instead of interacting with other Pantheon members.
- When posting in the forum, take note of the following:
- When you suggest a God, please explain why they fit the trope. Not everyone is going to understand just "X should be the God of Y because they exemplify the trope" off the bat, especially if they're unfamiliar with the work.
- You must use the Trope Pantheons discussion thread in the forums if you wish to add a new deity, story, something else of importance to the Trope Pantheon canon, or reworking an existing deity (be it simply improving their existing profile or changing their title).
- For new and reworked deities, 3 means the profile will have a one week waiting period.
- For new and reworked deities, 4 is a 3 day waiting period.
- 5 is an automatic ascension for new and reworked deities.
- Speaking of reworks, for anyone that wants to improve such profiles, they have to review the current trope the character(s) has and see if it still holds up or if there is a better rep for their trope.
- For adding new Treasures to The Great Treasury or new Dominions to the Dominions, the following rules apply:
- For new Treasures or Dominions, 3 is a 3 day waiting period.
- 4 is an automatic addition to the Great Treasury or Dominions.
- Do not repost a profile in the forums more than twice in a day if noticeable changes have not been made in between. If a profile is posted a third time in a row without noticeable alterations, it will be downvoted. This is so spamming of no-effort profiles is less frequent and to prevent tropers from getting aggravated seeing the same profile over and over. The minimum acceptable change has to be a single flavour text.
- The Pantheon is not a mouthpiece for you to voice your opinions on certain characters. You may like certain characters more than others, but do not make the mistake of making profiles for characters you like look like Character Shilling.
- Tropers new to the Pantheon are barred from approving or downvoting profiles until they have ascended at least two profiles.
- Do not include fan reception in any profiles. It has nothing to do with the character themselves and will create unnecessary conflict.
- Write a detailed explanation on why the character is the best candidate for deity of that trope. If people disagree with you, do not force it on the people.
- Keep in mind that if you still want to try to find a trope for a particular character, you are only given three chances to find a particular trope for them. If a suggestion goes past three possible tropes, then it will come off as shoehorning a character into the Pantheon just for the sake of that character to be there.
- On a related note, even if a character does have a free trope being suggested, there is still a limit of three attempts for suggesting that character for that trope. If no one responds to that certain proposal after being posted three times, then it will get to the point where the idea will be seen as being shoehorned into the Pantheon. In addition, the idea needs to be considered acceptable and approved because they are good, not for the sake of pitying others because no one is responding to their idea.
- When posting Pantheon related stuff to the wiki, take note of the following:
- Do not put a link to these Pantheon pages into the main wiki page. The moment you want to add in a main Characters page that the character is a God of this trope, do not do it. If you see leftovers of this practice, inform the forum and use the cutlist. This also goes to the Trivia page. The only exception to this rule is if a page in the Pantheon could be confused for a page in Main, like Good Colors, Evil Colors and Good and Evil Colors.
- Rule of Cautious Editing Judgment ALSO applies here. Do not bring things that would incite fights, even if it is what is currently the hot topic and might be 'urgent'. For example, the political scene and some really bad politicians. We are not here to fight at each other, so don't suggest things that go to that direction, this is a fictional Pantheon after all.
- To add a Pantheon page for a certain work, 4 or more characters coming from the same series/franchise should be ascended before adding the page. For Creator specific pages, 4 deities coming from the same creator and 2 individual work pages coming from the same creator is the minimum to warrant a page.
- Do not create a trope page for a story until the story is fully completed.
- Preparing to write:
- First thing to do before present a profile is to go to the Trope Pantheons discussion thread. In the forums, you must discuss with other users on adding ideas and seek their approval with sound reasoning. You can also get some assistance in the forum thread by either asking for help and those interested asking if they can help. Submissions that are added without discussion are likely to be deleted and those who violate those rules by adding Pantheon content without discussion will get reported to the mods.
- If you feel the need to remove a character for some reason (poor quality, outdated titles, etcetera) and replace him/her with another or outright rework, please see what the other tropers think about this in the discussion thread before doing anything hasty. Use good reasoning to see if your idea can easily replace the character present without drawing out your statement or giving too ambiguous claims most do not understand.
- Please be sure to consult others in the discussion about what you want to work before making the profile. This is done to see if your proposal is the best representative and so, in case your profile is turned down, you do not waste time writing something that others might not find suitable.
- In the same vein, if you adopt a profile from another troper, it is recommended that you make an announcement that you have done so on the discussion thread. More often than not, a trope that was reserved for something was given away to someone else. Check the Related tab on the top of a page to see if a trope or character has been reserved by a user.
- If, for whatever reason, you are writing about a God who just happens to be a person in real life, just try to be very careful about what you decide to say. Do not try to make the editing seem too meta (self-referential) and use the aformentioned creativity to create hypothetical scenarios towards fictional characters.
- When writing a profile for a character, here are a few things to note:
- All deities should be sorted by their divine ranking. Put Overdeities on the top of the page and Quasideities on the bottom. Also be sure to add them in alphabetical order by their first/given name (can be reversed if it is Eastern ordered). For a group, if there is no official name for them all list down all their names by order of relevance or (if too long to list) title them as Insert Name Here Main Characters or some other identifiable title along the same lines.
- The maximum number of tropes that a god can have is two, but do not try to abuse that fact. If you need to use a second trope to specify a certain thing about their position, that can be excused either because said character represents their trope choice very well alongside the first trope. It is still generally encouraged to only have one trope.
- A trope can only belong to one profile at a time. The only time two profiles can share a trope is if there are explicit variations listed in the trope page proper (e.g. Muscle Angst is held by both Biscuit Krueger and Chihiro Fujisaki as the former represents "Too Much Muscle" and the latter represents "Not Enough Muscle")
- If the character you are about to add to a House already exists in another, make sure to mention that this person has spots in other House as well. Up to 2 places can be made for a deity, with the sole exceptions being those at the Main House to highlight those characters’ importance to the Pantheon’s lore.
- For a character's theme song, try to avoid calling it "Theme of God X" or "Theme of (Show where God X originates from)". If possible, try to find out if the song has an actual name through research. Most importantly, it has to be part their series’ official soundtracks from media. Do not list songs that are made by fans or outside sources. If they were not specifically used as music for that specific character, then they do not count. Furthermore, it has to be a general theme specifically made for that characters’ appearances, not some generic music that plays for many other instances not related to the character in question.
- For images, when adding an image for your chosen character, it is highly recommended to use a stylized image that embodies the character or renders that also highlights a character’s behavior (such as cool poses). Most images should be from the main adaptations of the character, unless the images from the other media are of a higher quality than the adaptation. Unless it is needed, do not use fanart for images. If you are, please attribute to the original artist. Due to the website’s dark mode, removing white backgrounds from an image is paramount. This website is suggested to do the background removal. If an image you have takes up too much bytes, it is suggestible to use this site to reduce the byte size. If the byte is still too big, put the compressed image to other sites (or even the same one) to compress even further. Use wikias to look for better images, as even wikias for the series might not contain good official images.
- Creativity is your friend. While it is not recommended to get too ditzy at your ideas, it is best that when writing a profile for a certain character, do you think of capable scenarios between X and Y. Tip: do not use shallow examples (X wields a sword and Y wields one too) and try to think of relationships that makes sense (i.e those characters that are shout-outs for another).
- Pantheon Content:
- Some series or genres will eventually have greater representation in the Pantheon than others. This is unavoidable, but a little diversity helps to make you not look like a shill per say. Try to ensure that if you add a deity from a popular series, make sure that it is because they are a good representative for the trope in question, and not just because they are connected to another deity in their respective canon.
- As far as deities from actual mythologies, there is generally expectation to build the profiles off interactions from fictional portrays rather than basing it entire from the actual myth. Therefore, a mythological deity should be more of a Composite Character whose main identity is from the actual myth.
- Occasionally there will be Gods that carry a title without a trope. This is not forbidden, but it is well advised not to abuse them. The only house that a tropeless profile are wholly allowed is the House of Food. Mainly due to most food items lacking tropes, and adding tropes about said foodstuffs is slightly unnecessary. However, the character being ascended for their choice of a food, or food-related thing must be a decently good representative of said item. (i.e their Trademark Favorite Food, or something that they are closely associated with In-Universe, or both).
- For Dominions and Treasures profiles, always consider what made those places/objects popular in the first place. Were they plot-important, identifiable imagery or have a unique aspect of it? Do not just bring regular objects under the basis of following a certain canon.
- Some series or genres will eventually have greater representation in the Pantheon than others. This is unavoidable, but a little diversity helps to make you not look like a shill per say. Try to ensure that if you add a deity from a popular series, make sure that it is because they are a good representative for the trope in question, and not just because they are connected to another deity in their respective canon.
- For Profile Standards:
- Flavor text is used to describe certain things about a character, place or object. To avoid short ones, it is recommended to write flavor text with 4-7 sentences that can fill around 2 lines each. Be warned that adding too many sentences does not equal good flavor text as it is not an essay of sorts (unless words are substantial and do add to the overall line).
- Character Profiles of a certain person should have the following:
- A portfolio that contains at least 7 (at the minimum) tropes describing their character.
- Flavor text count for a deity profile should have by minimum, 10 (depending if the character in question has enough relationships/characterization) to 15 with a maximum of 20-25 for an individual profile.
- On the other hand, group profiles (profiles of a group that has 4 or more members) have their maximum flavor text count to 15 minimum, giving individual lines for the other members of the group (unless the members are not as characterized) up to 30 at max.
- Dominion profiles of a certain place should have the following:
- A portfolio that contains at least 5 (at the minimum) tropes describing the context of the place.
- Flavor text count should range at least 10 to 15.
- Treasure profiles (inanimate objects without a trope) should have the following:
- A portfolio that contains at least 6 (at the minimum) tropes that describes the object itself.
- Flavor text count should be at least 7 flavor text up to 12 to constitute a treasure profile.
- Overdeity: Omnipotent-level Reality Warpers capable of manipulating the entire universe (or at least the world) at will. Within their own universe they are believed to be omnipotent, or at least impossible-to-completely-destroy embodiments or concepts.
- Greater Gods: High-level Reality Warpers and that are extremely powerful (capable of destroying or changing anywhere from a large city to a planet at will) and very strong non-reality warpers capable of doing the same thing.
- Intermediate Gods: Deities at this level are capable of strong but specialized powers such as hydrokinesis, pyrokinesis, etc. without major drawbacks and low level Reality Warpers capable of affecting their immediate area at will.
- Lesser Gods: Capable of highly specific or little power on their own, or suffer from Power at a Price. However, they may be able to ruthlessly exploit their power or combine it with just being badass enough to make up for it.
- Demigods: Basically the Badass Normals of the pantheon, making up for their lack of abilities with strength, strategy, and/or planning.
- Quasideities: Any otherwise normal human, human equivalent, or below without any special powers or training will fall here.
God X, God/dess of (Insert Trope Here) (Alternate names/Nicknames, Fan Nickname)
- An image, if possible. Please use official art or a screenshot for a picture.
- Rank: This can range from Quasideity, Demigod, Lesser God, Intermediate God, Greater God, to Overdeity, based on representation of power mentioned above.
- Symbol: An image or icon used to represent the deity.
- Theme Song: Official song (in other words, no fan music, regardless of quality) that usually is used in affiliation with the character. If the deity is a musician this will most likely be their Signature Song. If possible, give a link for reference, preferably on either a website like Soundcloud or YouTube.
- Alignment: Good, evil, neutral etc. Forget about The Great Character Alignment Debate here, the Pantheon is one of the few places where you can assign Dungeons & Dragons alignment to characters that don't have alignment system. After all, the Pantheon is based on D&D and is made for fun.
- For Pokémon deities only:
- Gender: Defines the gender of the Pokémon; if genderless, it instead defines what gender they identify as.
- Ability: Provides the Pokémon's ability. If they can Mega Evolve, the new ability is listed as well.
- Moves: Defines the four moves used by a Pokémon. A Z-Move may also be listed.
- Portfolio: Tropes associated with the character.
- Domains: Things that the character has influence over.
- Herald: Non-ascended loyal character that is from the same series as the ascended character.
- High Priest: Non-ascended like heralds, but not from the same series, and can serve as a worthy replacement in case something would happen. They can be served as part-time workers in case the originals are busy with some jobs. Co-Godhood is accepted depending on the approval of the originals, usually if the co-deity is from the same series.
- Followers: Non-ascended characters that are not part of the Pantheon, but would probably worship this character by the fact that they share the ascended character's trope.
- Relationships between ascended characters go here with your chosen character, it goes something like this:
- Allies: Members of the Pantheon that are allies, those that share the same values as them and would theoretically be friends with them.
- Rivals: Members of the Pantheon that are rivals, people who may look at your character with suspicion or a challenge.
- Enemies: Members of the Pantheon that are foes, those who would see your chosen character as a threat, either on their pespective or yours.
- Additional Character Relationships: Members of the Pantheon that do not fit in various relationships (examples include Enemy Mine, Vitriolic Best Buds, Teeth-Clenched Teamwork, Headbutting Heroes, Friendly Enemy, Friendly Rival, Just Friends, etc.), allies, rivals, or enemies.
- Partner: Defines a partnership with an ascended deity and Mon-type. (if any)
- Feared by/Fears: A deity whom the members of the Pantheon notably fear or are feared by.
- Respected by/Respects: A deity whom the members of the Pantheon respect or are respected by.
- Opposed by/Opposes: Not necessarily the same as "Enemies", but this is used for any deity whom the members of the Pantheon directly opposes or is opposed by (basically the opposite of "Respects") terms of certain viewpoints, regardless of alignment.
- Pitied by/Pities: A deity whom the members of the Pantheon feel pity for or are found pitiable by.
- Conflicting Opinion: Sometimes, the Deities argue over specific themes and philosophies.
- Add the Intro. The intro is made up of two trivia, the Ascension Text (or just the Ascension) and The Bio. Both are necessary, but which order you use for them may vary depending on the profile in question. It may be better for one profile to have The Bio first and the Ascension second or vice-versa, although for the most part the order is irrelevant:
- The Ascension Text: This the story of how the character got into the Pantheon and/or was ascended. There are many ways for this to happen. They may be tricked into it or have simply wandered into the Pantheon, they may have had an already ascended character bring them in, they may already be in the Pantheon (via being another deity's Herald or sharing a trope) and got "promoted", or some combination of the above. Anything is possible in the Pantheon, so use your imagination, but try to incorporate their trope into the story, if possible.
- The Bio: A brief synopsis on the character's backstory. No need for the character's entire life/production history, but just give enough that those who don't know the character can get an idea of how the character works.
- Now add some random trivia/facts about events/alignments/moments/fights/friendships/relations etc.
- And some more trivia/facts.
- And a couple of more.
- Note: Standard amount of flavor text for Deities/Characters is 10-15 (15-20 for group profiles) at minimum to 20-25 (30 for group profiles) at maximum.
Template for Dominions profiles:
Place X, Place of (Insert Trope Here) (Alternate names/Nicknames, Fan Nickname)
- An image, if possible. Please use official art or a screenshot for a picture.
- Theme Song (Optional): Not important as compared to Deity and Dominion profiles but a notable mention if there is an accompanying song in use with the object.
- Alignment: Refers to the dominion's role in their story, be it those used by villains or used by the Player Character.
- Portfolio: Tropes associated with the dominion.
- Domains: Things that the place has links to.
- Relationships (Optional): Unless the location has a connection with a specific deity, relationships are optional and may not be required. However, if there are deities linked to the same series as where the dominion is linked to, note them using the relationships, this includes deities that theoretically have interest with said dominion, good or evil otherwise.
- Add the Intro. Here the introduction of the Dominion is added with some tidbits regarding the origins of its' creation and usage in the story. You can also add what made it popular/iconic/important here.

- Class: Refer to the Treasure Classification System in the Great Treasury.
- Alignment: Refers to the objects' role in their story, be it those used by villains or used by the Player Character.
- Theme Song (Optional): Not important as compared to Deity and Dominion profiles but a notable mention if there is an accompanying song in use with the object.
- Museum Check: A note that says whether the item is viewable by the public.
- Portfolio: Tropes associated with the item.
- Domains: Things that the item has links to.
- Relationships (Optional): Unless the item has a connection with a specific deity, relationships are optional and may not be required. However, if there are deities linked to the same series as where the item is linked to (especially the original owner of the item), note them using the relationships, this includes deities that theoretically have interest with said object, good or evil otherwise.
- Add the Intro. Here the introduction of the Treasure is added with some tidbits regarding the origins of its' creation and usage in the story. You can also add what made it popular/iconic/important here.
- Now add some random trivia/facts about events/alignments/moments/fights/friendships/relations etc.

Fixed the Theme song. Is there anything else I need to fix?
Xena, Goddess of Deadly Discs (The Warrior Princess, Destroyer of Nations)
- Intermediate God
- Symbol: The Balanced Chakram
- Theme Music: Xena: Warrior Princess theme song
- Weapon of Choice: Ckakram, though she is familiar with many weapons
- Alignment: Neutral Good (formerly Neutral Evil)
- Portfolios: Action Heroine, Improvised Weaponry, Charles Atlas Superpowers, Battle Cries, (Redemption Equals Death Redemption in Death), Hot Amazons, Is also Bi
- Domains: War, Redemption, Strength, Protection, Feminism
- Avatar of: Lucy Lawless
- Allies:
- Non-ascended: Gabrielle, Joxer, Autolycus
- Ascended: The Nephalems especially Sonya, Wonder Woman, Buffy, Conan the Barbarian, Hercules, Jackie Chan, Krillin, Tron, Captain America, Riku
- Enemies:
- Non-ascended: Castillo
- Ascended: The Greek Gods in general, tyrants, Julius Caesar
- Rivals: Kratos
- Teeth-Clenched Friendship: Ares
- Her first presence into the Pantheon was heard through a familiar battle cry as she back flipped all the way to the Weapons Pantheon.
- Many gods are trying to figure out how her famous chakram could make movements that make Captain America's shield look stagnant. Most chalk it up to the chakram having a mind of its own.
- Although she is best known for her chakram, she as used many other weapons, some of them not even intended as such. Jackie Chan was certainly impressed.
- Is sympathetic to those who are seeking redemption for their sins, especially the Fallen Gods. Her own redemption took many years to complete, and she is willing to help others to achieve their own.
- Became natural friends with Buffy. The Warrior Princess and the Vampire Slayer were among the most popular female protagonists in the 90s, bringing forth an age of multiple kickass females. Although their follows hope to see an official fight between them, both gods would rather put that discussion aside, though neither would back down if the time came.
- The Greek gods were concerned upon Xena's ascension, as she is prophesied to bring down their entire pantheon. They are currently seeking out ways to end her life. Xena is not surprised in the slightest the current Greek gods are as big of Jerkasses as the ones she is familiar is.
- Xena was eventually tracked down by Wonder Woman, who felt the Greek Gods were threatened with the prophesy. Although the Warrior Princess resisted, she proved no match for Diana. However, Xena quickly pointed out that prophesies can be rewritten, as multiple gods in the Pantheon have done in the past. Convinced that Xena meant no harm, Diana relented. Although she has no chance to convince the Greek gods not to hunt her down, she does have her good graces.
- For her part, she is trying to prevent such an occurrence to get the Greek Gods off her back. She is currently in talks with Sonya and Riku in the hopes of changing her fate.
- Ares turned out to be the only exception, but only to confirm rumors that he may be related to her. Though it is not quite the one she is familiar with, that doesn't stop her from hating him any less. Nevertheless, the two are willing to team up is the times are dire enough.
- Is surprised of Hercules current state; Even though she outranks him, he has a far better win rate among the gods, including herself.
- Kratos sees Xena's ascension as the perfect opportunity to bring about the fall of the Greek Gods. Although Xena sympathizes with his mistreatment at their hands, her empathy ends there; she wants no part in bring down their pantheon. The God of War wasn't too surprised at the rejection, but is willing to bide his time for the Warrior Princess to change her mind...
- Conan the Barbarian took and immediate liking to the Warrior Princess, only to be disappointed when he found out she was already taken be Gabrielle. Nevertheless, the two became close allies.
- The House of Love is currently helping Xena find a way to ascend her lover Gabrielle, enamored with the love story between the two as well as the love triangle with Ares (Xena is much more appreciated of the former than the later).
- No matter how much she tries to correct them, the Simpsons gods still think Lucy Lawless has ascended instead of her. Only Lisa believes her and that is only because she can't fly. Xena actively avoids those gods as a result.
I wanted to add this on further to an addition I made to the Anti-Monitor's profile:
- His recent war with Darkseid has revealed a horrifying fact: The Anti-Life Equation flows in the Anti-Monitor's veins. It is this which links the Disgraces to him, as The Royal Family (and Fan-fiction original characters in the Disgraces) are so corrupted that their very existence is a reflection of Anti-Life itself: their existence in their world(s) robbed all "Free Will" and enslaved narrative causality to themselves.
- Even the Anti-Monitor balks at their self-centeredness, but it is also this which makes them such useful tools. Besides, should they ever turn on him, he can enslave them out-right with The Anti-Life Equation itself.
I never understood Anti-Moniters connection to the Disgrace.
From what I know, it is because the Disgraces have a corrupting influence in fiction, and the Pantheon Anti-Monitor seeks to use that corruptive influence to weaken the Pantheon enough for him to wipe it all out. He is the one called the Devil of the Pantheon, after all.
Given that a healthy chunk of the Disgraces that are Fan-fiction Originals (and the Royal family itself) are such drastic Mary Sues that no other characters in the fictions they are in can be said to have any "wills" of their own, "Anti-Life" would suit them perfectly, don't you think?
Filia – Ayana Taketatsu
Cerebella – Toa Yukinari (not ascended)
Parasoul – Rie Tanaka
Peacock – Tomoko Kaneda
Double – Nakae Mitsuki
Painwheel – Izumi Kitta
Valentine – Asami Imai
Big Band – Tomokazu Sugita (not ascended)
Eliza – Chie Matsuura
Bloody Marie – Nao Touyama

Mind posting the content here? Can't access in the office net.
Okay, so they have Ragna, Bullet, Kokonoe and Carl. And I raise my eyebrows that Parasoul looked like Mitsuru visually and now she got her JP voice as well.

So any ideas for allies. He would be allied particularly with Knight Templars, Well Intentioned Extremists and those who suffered from Last of His Kind.
Also, i mention that he is able to No-Sell every single type of magic but he only has influence with the "Mana" type of magic.
Malygos, God of Destructive Woobies (The Spellweaver (or Spell-weaver), Lord of Magic, Steward of Magic, The Blue, Dragon Aspect of Magic, Lord of the Blue Dragonflight, The essence of magic)
- Greater God
- Symbol: The Hearth of Magic
- Theme Song: The Eye of Eternity.
- Alingment: Lawful Insane (Formerly Lawful Good)
- Portfolio: An Ice Person, Fallen Hero, Glowing Eyes of Doom, THE spellweaver, Likes to lecture his foes, Proud of his intelect, Knight Templar, Large Ham, Being the leader of a Flight who almost went extinct, Revenge Before Reason, Well-Intentioned Extremist, THE LORD OF MAGIC!, Almost going insane and having a crusade against all mortals Wizards, Magic Nullification, Met his end at the hand of his sister, his life basically sucked
- Domains: Magic, Dragons, Tragedy.
- Heralds: The blue dragonflight. (A minor part of them at least)
- Allies: Eliphas,
- Enemies: Deathwing, Nefarian, Acnologia, Ornstein and Smough, Anti-Mage, Kiritsugu Emiya, Tzeentch, The entire house of Magic
- Very complicated relationships: Alexstrasza, Ysera, Nozdormu.
- Malygos used to be a pretty normal and fun dragon around. Unfortunately, fate didn't think so and since the creation of the Dragon Soul and the almost near extinction of his Dragonflight Malygos almost went Insane. His crusade against the rogue mages in his world and his death at the hands of his sister, Alexstrasza only managed to cement the Blue dragon as a tragic figure.
- Malygos eventually reached the Pantheon on his own and was given a position. No one how he managed to reach the Pantheon but he isn't planning to keep things quiet in his stay.
- His brothers were worried that he of all people was able to reach this place. He isn't very on good terms with them and tries to ignore them whenever he can. he still hasn't forgived The Lifebinder for slaying him
- As the aspect of magic, his job is to guard and protect all the secrets of magic. So it's no surprise that he is knowledgeable of every single type of magic, even those outside of the world of Azeroth. However, he has only influence over the "Mana" type of magic but he can still Shrug off every type of magic available.
- He despises the Mortals who uses magic carelessly and to do harmful things. That's why he has apointed himself to strike down anyone who has even a remotely connection to magic without his consent. Magic is a sensitive subject to him you know...
- Go ahead, Try to use magic against him. If you actually do it, he will probably laugh in your face, lecture you a couple of minutes and then maul you to death. He is the aspect of Magic for a reason.
- He almost went ballistic when he learned of the Existance of a House of Magic and worse, many of the members of such house weren't nice people. He has sweared that he will destroy every single member of that house and he doesn't care if all the Pantheon will oppose him, He will do whatever it takes to succeed, even if he has to destroy the Pantheon entirely.
- The entire Pantheon was alarmed when he "declared war" against the Magic House and many gods whose friends were there started to get worried. The GUAG is starting to prepared in case the blue dragon is planning to attack at any moment.
- However, he will gladly put out any conflict if Deathwing is involved. He is one of the more important reasons why Malygos almost went insane. He has sweared to get back at the black dragon and his former friend eventually.
- "I AM THE ESSENSE OF MAGIC!".

Uni cat@ Whirl X: That was me. I made that connection in order to give the Anti-Monitor some relevance again, since he was pitched as the Devil of the Pantheon

- Enemies: The rest of the pantheon. More specifically, every god originating from Classical, Norse and Shinto mythology, and above everyone else HERACLES
- Opposes: Anyone who'd dare inflict fates worse than death, Lucifer and the GUAC
- Before the Pantheon, before there was anything, there was a formless chaos. And that formless chaos was Amatsu-Mikaboshi, aka the Chaos King. And when witnessing things other than itself from existing, it could not stand this. Most pantheon members thought Amatsu-Mikaboshi was banished forever in a false creation, and that would've been the case has Nekron not took notice. As a guardian of the darkness that the Chaos King embodies, the two get along well
- Despite(or maybe because of) its nihilistic agenda, the Chaos King is absolutely revolted by Hell and the concept of a Fate Worse than Death. As such, it sympathizes a lot with the White, even if it's motives are a tad more selfish. The Chaos King is using them as a means to break the foe's morale, in hopes of making the end of existence easier on itself.
- The Chaos King has vested interest overthrowing the Anti-Monitor, seeing him as competition in the "destroyer of worlds" ring. Nekron is helping for the golden opportunity of once again reining in the Anti-Monitor and getting a second chance at the Blackest Night.
- Unicron wasn't pleased to see the Chaos King play the multiversal destroyer game-"wiping out everything to be alone is my gig, goddamnit! Stop copying me!"
- Randall Flagg has noted Amatsu-Mikaboshi is a similar being to his master the Crimson King, and is working for him. For his own purposes, of course.
- For reasons unknown, the Chaos King serves as a Persona for Naoto Shirogane. The latter is very disturbed by this and what it might imply of him.
- Potential House: Travel
- Rank: Intermediate God
- Symbol: The flower of Floette
- Alignment: True Neutral(formerly Necessary Evil)
- Portfolio: Giant Men, Walking Spoiler, Backstory Horror, Forced to wander for 3000 years because of his sins, Atonement for World Ending Tragedy, Death Seeker
- Domain: War, Tragedy, Atonement
- Allies: Ash Ketchum, N, Guts, Yveltal, Kino
- Teeth-Clenched Teamwork With: The Emperor of Mankind, Xerneas
- Enemies: Lysandre, all non-good members of the House of War(especially Khorne), Griffith
- Opposes: Mr Freeze
- For 3000 years, AZ has been Walking the Earth, cursed for the sins of the past. Regretting his past decisions, AZ is not happy with anyone who'd sacrifice others for their loved ones. As such, he's not a fan of Mr Freeze (though he still feels sympathy for the man). He is working to stop his distant nephew Lysandre from repeating his past transgressions
- AZ has nothing but contempt for Griffith, not just because of his his utterly heinous actions but, unlike AZ, his sacrifice was the pinnacle of selfishness. AZ is helping Guts with taking Griffith down.
- AZ has a difficult relationship with The Emperor of Mankind. He understands, especially given where he lives, sometimes you need to commit grave sins for a better world. However he knows how this could degrade into becoming a monster, and is trying to be a Morality Chain to both him and the Imperium. The Emperor isn't exactly comfortable with the man who killed so many to bring his Floette back, but appreciates the sentiment.
- Some suspect that Ash has a connection to AZ, given that he never ages either. AZ has so far denied this, claiming Ash should look like he's in his 20s, but a number of people buy it anyway.
- Has become less angsty about his state after seeing Aleph. To quote AZ:

Added Skull Face on Esdeath's profile it makes sense when you think about their nature in war and what they both do...
Mileena MadnessSo why does AM is even consider the Devil of the pantheon? And since RJ came up with him being connected to Disgrace, then I feel it has to be force.
so when will we change the links to gods who are gone?
He was the Devil when I got here in the first place. Ask whoever added him
Admittedly this isn't supposed to be taken seriously, but I just realized something: Chris-Chan is a Persona Non Grata. The Emperor of Mankind's "If The Emperor had a Text-to-Speech Device" incarnation is considered part of the Pantheon!Emprah. That reveals that one of the Emperor's guises is Christian Weston Chandler(see the trope page for proof)
As such, since the "this is a list of people banned from entering the pantheon forever", shouldn't he be kicked out? Or should we rewrite it as "this is a list of people banned from entering the pantheon for the next 27783 years"
BTW what are people's thoughts on my upgraded AZ and Chaos King profiles? Are they ready to ascend?

Rin@ Wonder if she more personality or Tics.
I think a speech pattern would be more fitting for voices personally
In times of trouble, turn to the Devil for guidance.I know this is a stupid question, but is Ace Hardlight able to properly ascend into the pantheon with Creator's Pet? He's an in-universe example because of how much Gleeman Vox shoves him in the spotlight (ironically, he's quite a fan favorite).
I'm only stating this because there have been a few cases of a trope being used twice for a deity and a disgraced. For example, Jerkass is taken in the pantheon by Jin Kisaragi, and in the Disgraces by Peter Griffin.
The honorable Prince of the Sea: Manaphy@Whirl: Regarding your suggestion fo Absurdly Youthful Mother, might I suggest looking into Misato Wakana...
Sed regresso retributio. Carpe Diem. Deus lo Vult...i'm fine with that
Before I forget though, any news as to the proposal for the Officer and a Gentleman portfolio? I remember someone suggesting Darjeeling for the position previously, before I raised Treize Kushrenada as a better option....
Be advised that I might post his portfolio draft on or before Halloween, since I got Final exams looming...
Sed regresso retributio. Carpe Diem. Deus lo Vult...I even wonder why the disgraces even exist. I see no point in them really but that's just my opinion.
Uni catIronic that it is fallen from grace. Once people used it to put away Mary Sue and The Scrappy, someone whom I will not speak of used because he didn't like the character.
Fire Emblem Heroes Code: 4547311645 Fate/Grand Order Code: 188037115So basically, Disgrace could have been use as a transferred of trope titles when said deity done something to warrant a change.
WARNING: LONG POST INBOUND
Okay since i stated that Life And Death should be splitted i have came up with a couple of houses:
Dying Methods: Death (Final Destination), AM(?), Erebus, Ezio Auditore, Grenth, Jean Grey, Kenshiro, Raoh, The Crow, Connor and Duncan MacLeod, Grigori Rasputin, Grommash Hellscream, Jonathan Joestar, Mami Tomoe, Odin (FF), Suzaku Kururugi, William Antonio Zeppeli, Akau Kin, Artina, Benkei, Eddard Ned Stark, Morinth, Murky, Proto Man, Shiki Tohno and Shiki Ryougi, Sonya Blade, Xion, Arngrim, Jason Todd, Marco Bodt, Yoshiyuki Tomino, Kenny McCormick, Makoto Itou, Marion Crane.
Guardians of the Afterlife: Death the Horseman, Eiki Shiki, Gig, Nagash the Undying, The Immortal God-Emperor of Mankind, Death (Discworld), Dhuum, Ichigo Kurosaki, Jack Frost, Kel'thuzad, Ai Enma, Black Hand (?), Maya fey, Ryuk, Eric Draven.
Ruin and Destruction: The Lich, Nekron (?), Nurgle,, Kei and Yuri, Lavos, The Fiends, The Nameless One, Lucifer the Doom, Horaru Tomoe/Sailor Saturn, Oerba Dia Vanille, Shinado, Nathan Drake.
Life and creation: The entity, The Golden Spider, Athena, Cell, Lenneth Valkyrie, Phoenix (Wizard), Phoenix Ikki, Virtous, Albedo Piazzolla, Eliza, Fujiware no Mokou, Remilia Scarlet, Ridley, Touko aozaki, Vandal savage, Elize Lutus, Epsilon, Houyi, Kyosuke Nanbu, Maya Amano, Wraith King, Ayu Tsukimiya and Fuko Ibuki, Peter Pan, Tsugumi Komachi.
Don't know: The lord of Nightmares, Zanza, Amy Dallon, Hades (Hercules/Smite), Hrist Valkyrie, Jarvan Lightsield Iv (Might move him to Fear), Johann Faust VIII (Is he in Passion or Romance?), Ra's Al Gul (Ditto as Jarvan), Charlotte the Dessert Witch (Move to Narrative?), Chuck (Iron Butt Monkey is more a Narrative trope), Haru Ichinose, Sir Daniel Fortesque (Move him to Eyes), Springtrap (Move him to Undead and Maybe Technology), The flood (Move it to Undead).
There is a LOT of gods who share multiple tropes and some that i won't bother pointing out they Bareboness (Is that even a word?). Any ideas?
Uni catRight.. unless anyone has any objections, I'm going to run through the entire pantheon and fix up the worst of the grammar/spelling mistakes, because I'll be frank, some of the profiles are borderline painful to read. I'm not claiming I'm going to be doing a perfect job at all, mind - just enough that one won't have to stop at every second sentence because of spelling/grammar errors.
Sounds good.

I feel there might be more developed characters for thst trope thst isn't a mindless beast of a boss after the fact.
Also, when we ask for a trope that is free on your post, you also mention who you want to give it to.
