* Dislikes the Emperor of Mankind on principle, and the Emperor has contempt for him for being an evil scheming and smug alien. However, Azmuth's hostility towards humans doesn't compare to Zamasu. As Goku Black he experienced being in the form of [[Pantheon/{{Power}} the man he hates more than anyone]], so he does relate to Albedo's predicament. However just because he understands him doesn't mean he likes him, as the mad Kaioshin regards Galvans as sinful as any other mortal. [[EvenEvilHasStandards Albedo thinks Zamasu is a genocidal maniac]] in return.

* While the position was still under a jinx, Remus Lupin proved one of the best teachers possible under the condition. He was very upset to learn that a future DADA teacher was Dolores Umbridge who's still screeching at his ascension due to her FantasticRacism. He considers Agatha Trunchball to be particularly contemptible as well. Like Sirius he can be seen teaching in the House of Pantheon/{{Magic}}

* Meilin Lee is a second generation Chinese migrant living in Toronto in 2002. For much of her young life, she did her best to live up to the expectations of her demanding mother Ming, which she was successful at as she excelled at school and gladly helped with the family business. Then, shortly after her 13th birthday, Mei started going through changes; most alarmingly, she started turning into a giant red panda whenever she had an intense burst of emotion. This magical transformation is passed down through the women of the Lee family, starting with a distant ancestor who acquired that power to protect her loved ones. However, Mei and her mother saw it as a curse, since it's not very normal to poof into a big, fluffy animal in their world. On the other hand, Mei's best friends warmly welcomed this new side of her and made her feel like the panda was awesome instead of something to be ashamed of. Meanwhile, Mei and her friends aimed to see their favorite boy band, 4*Town, live; to pay for the tickets, Mei revealed the panda to the rest of her schoolmates and charged money for pictures and other things. The more time Mei spent in her panda form, the more she liked it. Nonetheless, Ming was determined to get rid of it and to that end, gathered the extended family for a ritual, which coincidentally fell on the same day as the concert. Mei decided she was done following her mother's every wish and declared she would keep her panda. Ming was so furious that she involuntarily unsealed her own {{kaiju}}-sized panda form, chased Mei down and wreaked havoc at the concert. Fortunately, the Lees were able to stop Meilin's mother's rampage with the help of 4*Town, because MusicSoothesTheSavageBeast. Mei then learned that Ming also suffered a great deal under the pressure of her grandmother. As mother and daughter came to understand each other better, Mei got to keep her panda.
* Her ascension happened on the next night with a red moon. She felt the urge to go just a little wild and hop around the city in her panda form, and just like that she stumbled her way into the Pantheon. Past an initial freak-out at the sudden change in scenery, Mei realized she no real reason to fear when taking into account the things she could do in her panda form (besides the fact that her size can be intimidating), so she explored this new world with easygoing curiosity. And then at some point she was suddenly glomped by a pretty blonde lady, who just as suddenly dragged her down to the Main House and begged for Mei to be ascended. Noel (as the blonde lady is known) was assured that the Main House was way ahead of her, and so the very taken-aback Mei was placed through the usual procedures of having the Pantheon explained to her and what was expected of her. Turns out, the idea of being one of the Pantheon's gods holds a lot of appeal for Mei; it's like she's become the heroine of a teen fantasy novel like the kind Priya reads, or something.

* As a giant panda with remarkable physical abilities (even if she's not actually a trained fighter), Mei was bound to get Po's attention sooner or later, especially after word of her not-so-legendary battle with Totoro spread around. Though, as it turns out, the Dragon Warrior isn't that interested in putting Mei to the test or even potentially making a successor out of her (at that point, Mei would say that between the red panda and being in the Pantheon, she already has enough of a great destiny), and just likes to have another fun panda friend to hang out with casually. He couldn't help but remark that on how she was quite a bit bigger than him and that she was really extra-plus-sized for a red panda though, given the species is usually diminutive, as exemplified by his master Shifu. The fact that Mei is a lot more laidback in contrast to Shifu also provides some amusement, but in the end, both Mei and Po could bond over being raised/trained by strict disciplinarians.

* Coincidentally she is not the only second generation Chinese migrant youth to be saddled with a powerful animal transformation as a result of her family's ancient history chasing her all the way cross-continent. There is also Jake Long, a New Yorker who around the age of 13 discovered he had dragon blood in him and could fully transform into one, which was part of his destiny as a protector of magical beings. While Mei's own transformation doesn't make her obliged to fulfill any grand tasks, she and Jake could relate to each other over the conflict between their westernized upbringing and their family's ancient traditions from another culture, as well as the fact that their transformations appeared during a time when they're angsty, hormonal and trying to figure themselves out as they go through rapid changes.

* Mei soon found she's going to have to deal with some form of discrimination in the Pantheon, with some people considering her to be a mutant, and thus sub-human or a deadly dangerous to "real" humans. One of those people is William Stryker, who in his insanity believes it is his god-given to persecute any mutants, and he fully believes Mei is one of the monsters that needs to be eradicated from the world, and the fact that Mei is just a kid certainly doesn't bother him; he immediately killed his newborn son when he turned out to have a mutation as well. While Mei knows the most reasonable thing is to stay as far away from him as possible and let professionals handle him, she can't help but feel her temper flare up in panda form when hearing of Stryker's atrocious intentions towards other kids like herself, when they just want to be left in peace and have fun without hurting anyone.
