History Pantheon / Logic

* As a DirtyCoward he only acts like a hero when he needs to. If you don't believe us he tried ignoring UsefulNotes/WorldWar2 as New Zealand and only fought Nazi Germany after the Soviet Union and United States (sans Delaware) collapsed and [[IFightForTheStrongestSide when they refused his proposition to join them]]. With Delaware's help [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu he won by the way]]. But even he has his standards. Digital piracy, for example, [[DigitalPiracyIsEvil is crossing the line]] and that people who do so are just sick fucks. And he's dissatisfied with how they are dealt with nowadays. Instead of taking them to the House of Pantheon/{{Justice}} he proposes that they just stick a point cannons at their houses [[UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfPiracy like they did in the 18th century]]. He tried smuggling one in to blow Arfoire to kingdom come but he was stopped at the gate and asked for his pirating license and ended up leaving in defeat when he was unable to give the pirate password they ask of pirates who are from Sweden and are red pandas. He wasn't tricked, he just felt unwelcome.

* Other ally was Bruce "Jaws", the white shark, who he found to be a more pleasant presence than his dumb partner, Shark. As Bruce is far smarter, deadlier and bigger, since he's a pilot fish, Bruce won't attack him and even appreciated Joe giving him higher capacity for thoughts after giving him some of the fish antidote to boost his intellect. As such the two have formed a brand-new partnership with Joe being careful not to aggravate his new companion following some advice of his allies to avoid BadBoss tendencies.

* If it wasn't clear already, Seija opposes just about everyone; not in the sense of "being the ultimate evil" like [[Pantheon/{{Continuities}} Anti-Monitor]] or [[Pantheon/{{Dragons}} Grima]], nor an OmnicidalManiac KnightTemplar like [[Pantheon/HatredAndRancor Zamasu]], but more like "a {{Troll}} who wants everyone to hate her". That is the true nature of amanojaku, after all, and it is a feeling that happens to be one resonant with Oberon Vortigern, a fellow opposer of all who wants nothing more to incite conflict. At some point well prior to her second condlict with Terumi (read below), she once gave Oberon the idea to fuck up Chaldea’s summer vacation [[ItAmusedMe for shits and giggles]], an idea that has remained in the fae’s head [[CallForward for quite a while, wanting to be seen through]].

** Kilian did little to hide his disdain for Moneybags selling [=POWs=] to [[Pantheon/{{Dragons}} Spyro]], even less so when he's open to the idea of letting his buyers do whatever they want with them. Or eating them himself if payment doesn't come fast enough. The bear has no idea what the living hell he is talking about and is [[EveryoneHasStandards quite frankly disgusted himself from hearing such accusations]]. And while on topic, Kilian isn't willing to let Bianca off the hook after witnessing her pull off "some serious Mengele shit!" on Buzz. While not willing to deny her past working under the Sorceress, she doesn't want to deal with Kilian either.

Many of these objects are likely possessions of other deities from Gensokyo, such as the Gap Folding Umbrella being a lookalike of the parasol [[Pantheon/TypesOfService Yukari Yakumo]] carries.

* While he is a general foe to Pantheon/{{Gaming}}, there are more specific enemies he has. First, he opposes every glitch or anything related to a glitch because they threaten to expose or otherwise trouble him like Vinny and Missingno. Reports that [[spoiler:[[WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall Missingno was an Outer God EldritchAbomination]] according to [[Pantheon/TokuBase Linkara]] ]] furthered his hatred and concern for glitches. He takes umbridge with Mario, Donkey Kong and Samus Aran due to their similarities to Felix, Ralph and Seargent Calhoun. He's troubled Pinkie Pie as well due to wanting to steal the attention of her parties and candy away from her.

* A Keyblade Master is one of the highest titles one can be bestowed with in the world of ''Franchise/KingdomHearts''. It establishes that the one bearing the title has passed the Mark of Mastery exam and achieved true mastery over the Keyblade. Eraqus is one such master, and unlike his colleague, Xehanort, who uses his skills for evil, Eraqus passes his knowledge onto his pupils, who he has always loved like his own children.
* His swordplay is matched only by his hatred for the Darkness, which he sees as the root of all evil. It was this, combined with Xehanort's manipulations, that led him into conflict with his oldest pupil, Terra. While extreme in his views, many see him as [[StrawmanHasAPoint having had a point]], since in the Kingdom Hearts universe, [[DarkIsEvil darkness is usually evil]], while [[LightIsGood light is usually good]], with Eraqus himself ironically coming closest to being an exception for the latter. Terra used the darkness in their final duel and Xehanort himself primarily uses the darkness, with good Darkness users like Riku being the exception rather than the norm.
* Eraqus' ascension to the Pantheon came about at some point after [[VideoGame/KingdomHeartsIII the third game in his series]], after he managed to help Xehanort come to terms with his defeat and redeem himself, the two of them departing for the afterlife. By this time, Xehanort was already in the Pantheon, so his first act was to make sure his old friend wasn't up to anything evil, which he thankfully was not.
* While he is on amicable terms with the main Xehanort, when he learned of his other incarnations, proceedings were less than friendly. Between Ansem's rambling on about darkness, which struck a bit of a nerve in him, and Young Xehanort's [[SmugSnake generally smug nature]], he found himself more than a little annoyed with those two. But when he learned of Terra-Xehanort and Xemnas, he was ''furious'', first thinking they had done something horrible to Terra to be the way they are. Which...yeah, they did, but he was able to be calmed down upon learning that they currently exist separately from the real Terra, who is safe and sound. Nowadays, he is still wary around them, as their very existence unsettles him.
* Learning of his surrogate son's safety, he made it a point to check up on Terra, Ven and Aqua, and found them hanging out at the House of Pantheon/FriendshipAndCamaraderie. Seeing them so happy after all that they had gone through was nearly enough to move the otherwise-dignified Keyblade Master to tears, and as he revealed himself, he once again reiterated his apology to them for everything they had gone through because of him. Though they forgave him easily and happily, they could not deny that his views on darkness, extreme as they were, [[StrawmanHasAPoint were not unfounded]], as his trope shows - their experiences with Xehanort taught them that rather handily, but he now has faith that they are strong enough to overcome it.
* As for the other ascended members of his story, he is generally on good terms with the heroes and bad terms with the villains. In particular, he isn't fond of the Heartless. While in his era, he had to deal with the Unversed, he finds the Heartless to be much more potentially dangerous, as they stem from the darkness within people's hearts, and he knows how volatile darkness can be in the wrong hands. But some of them are friendly, which makes him feel a little uneasy, but he has decided to trust them for now. Among the evil ''Kingdom Hearts'' deities, however, none are quite so frightening to him as [[Pantheon/SplitPersonalities Vanitas]]. In addition to being pure darkness and loving every second of it, [[spoiler:Vanitas may have been one of the original thirteen Darknesses of old. The very idea of such an ancient evil still being around makes Eraqus worried for the future of the Pantheon itself]].
* Even knowing that Terra and Aqua managed to overcome the darkness, Eraqus is still a little wary around darkness-users, and as such steers clear of the Hall of Pantheon/DarknessAndShadow. DarkIsEvil is a very real and very common trope, something Eraqus is aware of. Even if he now recognises through Terra that DarkIsNotEvil ''can'' exist, that most of the the Hall's residents are evil is not helping. Most of all, he opposes Chernabog, the resident God of [[DarkIsEvil Malevolent Darkness]], who he never met in life, but knows exists in his world. Knowing he can rely on fellow Keyblade warriors like Sora to stop him should he rise puts his mind at ease.
* Naturally, he is much more comfortable and at home in the Hall of Pantheon/LightAndBrightness, where he gets along with many of the deities there. Among them, he is impressed with the endeavours of Danielle Baptiste and Satsuki Kiryuin, taking pity on the former for her responsibilities as the Angelus and the latter for her suffering at the hands of her own mother, and wishes to be a figure of respect and support for the two of them. He also looks up to Ezalor as a heroic opposite to Chernabog. However, the Light of Destruction, and [[LightIsNotGood all it represents]], deeply unnerves him, and he wishes not to associate with it.
** This has also led to an interesting relationship with [[Pantheon/{{Luckiness}} Judai Yuki]], who wields the [[TheSacredDarkness Gentle Darkness]] to counteract the Light of Destruction. Judai's experiences has taught him that darkness can be dangerous, as with it, he became the villainous Supreme King and hurt his friends, but also that it isn't inherently evil. Eraqus believes there is a lot to learn from Judai's story, and gladly takes its lessons to heart.
* Often, Eraqus will spend time in the Hall of Pantheon/LegacyAndInfluence, finding a strange kinship with the more heroically-aligned deities there due to seeing Terra, Ven and Aqua as his own legacy. Among them, however, he spends the most time with Obi-Wan Kenobi, who he has found to be quite similar to himself. Kenobi, however, takes pity on Eraqus, knowing how tragically his tale ended, and gives him his condolences. It goes both ways, too, as Eraqus recognises that Terra stayed a good kid at heart the entire time, which is more than can be said for Anakin.
** While he looks upon Anakin/Vader with pity, watching the revolving door that is [[Pantheon/{{Destinies}} Kylo Ren]] makes him feel more conflicted than anything. As the avatar of repeating history, Eraqus sees him as someone who must be monitored, lest he fall back into the Dark Side, but he has agreed to let things play out for now, as knowing [[NiceJobBreakingItHero his track record]], involving himself in that story may only make things worse.
* In general, Eraqus has mixed feelings on the Jedi and the Sith Order. While his past self would have instantly jumped onto the "Jedi good, Sith bad" train that many are prone to do, Eraqus now has reflected on himself, recognising it's not just black and white. The saying that "Only a Sith deals in absolutes" in particular has been incredibly thought-provoking to Eraqus, who dealed in absolutes right up until his final living moments. For this reason, he isn't sure what to make of [[Pantheon/{{Ambiguity}} The Ones]], who embody each side of the Force, its balance included. The Son is someone to be wary around, and his killing of his sister reminds Eraqus of his own death at Xehanort's hands, but the Daughter and Father seem amicable enough, with the former even asking him not to hate her brother. In the end, he wonders if the Dark Side truly can find balance with the Light Side, and what that says about the Darkness and Light in his own world.
* While [[HeroAntagonist not a villain by any definition]], Eraqus still finds himself drawn to the Hall of Pantheon/AntiVillains, feeling that they understand his struggles, and vice versa, better than their heroic counterparts. In particular, and in no small part due to the similarity in their tropes, Kuvira has become something of a point of curiosity for him. Both of them find kindred spirits in one another, being antagonistic individuals who are deemed to have quite a good point, but are made out as extremists regardless, which, while they are willing to accept the error of their ways now, they were still in vehement belief that they were right at the time. Eraqus isn't sure what to make of Kuvira's more amoral actions, such as almost killing Bataar Jr. or becoming a tyrant, but he knows what it is like to put a goal ahead of one's loved ones, and recognises that she is truly sorry, so he has chosen not to judge her too harshly for it.
* In spite of all this, Eraqus was not initially sure what was meant by a "strawman", feeling mild confusion as he noted he was made from flesh and blood like any normal man. Asking around led him in the direction of [[Pantheon/{{Derivatives}} Stephen Colbert]], the God of {{Straw Character}}s, who, though initially annoyed at the implication that he didn't have a point, was able to explain it to him. Eraqus now occasionally finds himself spending time with the news reporter, finding him peculiar but somewhat interested in his ramblings about this "America" he speaks of.
* He has nothing but pity for [[Pantheon/InsaneBehavior Shinn Asuka]], seeing in him a younger, more messed-up version of himself. From his unhealthy belief in absolutes leading to his insanity, to his painful decision of [[ToBeLawfulOrGood having to choose between being lawful and being good]], he recognises that rather than being seen as simply mad, he needed someone to be there for him, and wonders how differently things would have been if he'd had a good mentor to guide his way. Seeing what Asuka has gone through also made Eraqus take a good look at himself, wondering just how badly he screwed up with the Wayfinder Trio, and how he could have ended up if things had been different - for better or for worse.
* During his time in training to be a Keyblade Master, Eraqus and Xehanort had an encounter with [[Pantheon/MagicalItems the Magic Mirror]]. Fascinated by the talking artefact, Eraqus would ask it all manner of questions, some insightful, some less so, only to be interrupted by Xehanort, who reminded him that they were still on a mission. Seeing it again in the Pantheon was quite unexpected, to say the least, and he simply had to ask some more questions, just for old time's sake.
* Upon learning about the Venom Symbiote and its nature, Eraqus was left feeling a mix of confusion and plain uncertainty. The Klyntar were made to devour gods and destroy "the Light", which would have made Eraqus instantly declare them in need of eradication. What interests him, however, is that once they were freed from their HiveMind, they instantly betrayed their creator and [[HeroWithAnFInGood attempted]] to protect the Light instead. Being both a form of corruption and highly corruptible themselves, Eraqus figures they most likely mean well, but need to be guided away from those who would use them for evil.

* Not only does he preside over the domain order, Jyggalag presides over the [[TheSpock domain of logic]] as well. This may sound like just another sector of his ideology, but in actuality, the logic part is just as important if not more than order itself. With the Sword of Jyggalag, he can calculate every conceivable outcome through logic alone. Yes, that even includes Oblivion as well, a very illogical place to say the least. He basically holds the power of the AkashicRecords, making him likely to know what future the Pantheon is heading. With his sword, can even peer into the past and the potential outcomes that came from there, so he knows of timelines where Homura was influenced by solely Lucifer to take Madoka’s power or where Xehanort guised himself as Lord Praxis. You can see why the Daedric Princes feared him. The only weakness of this ability that outcomes have to be deduced by logic and Jyggalag needs time to make said deductions. If he actually cared, [[StoryBreakerPower Jyggalag could likely conquer the Pantheon by himself with no issue]].
