* It should be noted that, for all his acting the IdiotHero, Luka is actually [[KnightInSourArmor much]] [[HiddenDepths more]]. Nothing [[BerserkButton sets him off more]] than [[WeHelpTheHelpless watching the weak being oppressed or harmed]], so woe betide any who does in his presence. He went so far as to [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu take down]] [[TopGod Ilias]] (albeit with help) for trying to kill all monsters and humans, a feat which earned him the respect of several deities such as Asura, Flynn and Aleph.

* While he prefers a peaceful life, he has often sparred with the various gods in the Pantheon, from Natsu Dragneel (who reminds him of [[PlayingWithFire Gran]][[OurDragonsAreDifferent beria]] and has the same nickname as [[PlayingWithFire Salamander]]) to Shirou Emiya to even Flynn and the Demi-Fiend himself (who are both interested with his relation to Lucifer and his [[spoiler:Angel abilities]]).
** Fights with the Demi-Fiend had to be toned down, after one match ended with Naoki using [[ShockAndAwe Freikugel]] and Luka using [[CounterAttack Day]][[HolyHandGrenade star]], which ended up blowing up the entire wing of the House of Combat they were fighting in.

** While hopping through various factions that were being pitted against each other, she found targets from the same masked army that killed her team on numerous occasions, including one where the masked woman and the commander both appeared at the same time fighting against one another. In particular, meeting Sleigh Presty and Ibis Douglas of the Project Terrestrial Dream group caused her to start seeing things a bit more clearly, ultimately choosing her friendship with them above her quest for revenge. As it goes, it was while letting go of her vengeful tendencies that she came into the truth about her crew's killer, meaning both the singular perpetrator and the conquering army as a whole; she became instrumental in the ensuing ultimately victory over the Ze Balmary Empire.

** Other: [[Pantheon/MagicAndSorcery Usagi Tsukino/Sailor Moon]], [[Pantheon/MagicArchetypes Marisa Kirisame]] (Slightly [[VitriolicBestBuds Vitriolic]], though), The Companion Cube, [[Pantheon/MagicArchetypes Jaina Proudmore]], [[Pantheon/FriendsAndCompanions Gardevoir]]

* Enemies: [[Pantheon/ActsOfWar Gregor Clegane]], [[Pantheon/{{Villainy}} Griffith]] (because [[EvenEvilHasStandards even sex offenders have standards]]), [[Pantheon/TaintedLove Gideon Graves]], [[Pantheon/JokesAndPranks Stewie Griffin]], [[Pantheon/FleshEaters SCP-953]]

* Allies: '''''[[Pantheon/{{Mothers}} Amida Arca]]''''' (his TopWife), '''[[Pantheon/TaintedFriendship Mikazuki Augus and Orga Itsuka]]''', [[Pantheon/FightingStyles Kazuma Kiryu]], [[Pantheon/{{Offsprings}} Raku Ichijou and Chitoge Kirisaki]]
* Enemies: Most ''Gundam'' villains, Lord Djibril in particular, [[Pantheon/{{Electricity}} Zeus]], [[Pantheon/MotivationsForRevenge Hera]]

* The situation with Raku and Chitoge has a similarity to Naze and Amida's; they used the pretense of marriage for protection purposes, the older couple for [[spoiler:rescuing exploited women]] and the marriage was legal, and the younger pair pretended to be a couple to keep their yakuza families from tearing each other apart, [[spoiler:although [[BecomingTheMask it does become real]] by the end]].

** Fellow KOF Competitors: [[Pantheon/{{Language}} Terry Bogard]] (sees him as a future brother-in-law), King, [[Pantheon/FictionalExpies Ryo and Yuri Sakazaki, Robert Garcia]], [[Pantheon/CombatClothing Athena Asamiya]], [[Pantheon/HairColor Kula Diamond]]

Created so as to give room for the other sub-houses of Love, this house is home to those who incite feeling desire, love, affection and/or lust. Most gods associate it with the Lust sub-houses, which in part comes from many of its members being former members of that House. However, attracting others sexually is just one aspect of the House. Dating sims and romance tips can be found strewn over the place, the former of which [[Pantheon/{{Romance}} Keima Katsuragi]] is in charge of.

Naturally, it is a very attractive and popular sub-house, with gods often visiting to win the favor over some of the gods here. However, they do not take kindly to those who do evil to win them over, and do not permit fights inside this sub-house over them. [[MoralMyopia It doesn't stop them competing for one another on who's the best though]]. Those who have a bad time trying to get a date like [[Pantheon/TacticsAndStrategies Zapp Brannigan]] are rather bitter at the new sub-house.

As the living embodiment of desire and taking the form of whatever someone finds attractive, Desire of the Endless serves as the leader of the House. As with all Endless, it'd be incredibly unwise to anger them. Is trying to keep asexual and celibate gods out of the sub-house.

* Before marrying Stan she was known to [[ReallyGetsAround get around]], [[EthicalSlut all in the name of fun and partying on both sides]]. She's got the biggest sex garden in North America, but outside of one moment of weakness at the beginning of her marriage remains loyal to Stan. The [[Pantheon/LustfulActs lust]] [[Pantheon/LustfulBehavior sub-houses]] are happy to let her visit and tell tales, however made it clear she's not going to do any swinging given how Stan wouldn't care for it. She was initially ignored until [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VKpWq-0ZESE she started flashing the guards]], all in hopes of joining Stan in his new pantheon antics. Even hardened security officers couldn't help but stare. Stan was mixed on this but happy to see her and made out(partly to make the guards jealous).

* There have been countless stories of older gentlemen who decide to date women far younger than themselves. That does not mean that some women have similar tastes. The most infamous case is from a woman codenamed Mrs. Robinson (her first name was never revealed). She used her status and feminine wiles to coerce a son of their friends into a relationship. The insidious story that followed brought her great infamy. Known for such debauchery, The subhouse of Tainted Love decided to give her a seat in the Pantheon. Now she is free to go after a large number of young men.

* To keep that from happening again, he uses a special perfume courtesy of the House of Pantheon/{{Technology}} to help mask his scent. While it's not perfect (in that female monsters will still be able to smell him within a certain distance), [[PowerLimiter the effect is greatly reduced]], so they can usually control themselves even if he's in the vicinity.

* Allies: His fellow IS pilots in the Pantheon ([[Pantheon/LoveInterests Houki Shinonono, Lingyin Huang]], [[Pantheon/{{Romance}} Laura Bodewig]], [[Pantheon/RacialAppearances Charlotte Dunois]], [[Pantheon/RoyalPersonalities Cecilia Alcott]], and [[Pantheon/{{School}} Chifuyu Orimura]]—the last one being his older sister), all Good-aligned deities in the House of Pantheon/{{Weapons}}, Pantheon/MilitaryAndWarfare and Pantheon/{{Technology}}, all deities allied with the aforementioned IS pilots, [[Pantheon/CombatOccupations Elenore Baker]], and the Pantheon/GUAGRelationshipEnchancers, especially '''[[Pantheon/PowerMentalities Issei]] [[Pantheon/LustfulActs Hyodo]]''', [[Pantheon/{{Explosives}} Kitakami]]

** Has once clashed with Chun-Li in a forest in the House of Nature. [[WebAnimation/DeathBattle She won the fight]]. Their friendly feud reminded both [[Pantheon/{{Music}} Hibiki Houjou/Cure Melody and Kanade Minamino/Cure Rythm]] of their VitriolicBestBuds dynamic for [[Creator/AmiKoshimizu various]] [[Creator/FumikoOrikasa reasons]].

* Enemies: [[Pantheon/MentalismOther Gendo Ikari]], [[Pantheon/MindGames Arael]], [[Pantheon/{{Beast}} King Ghidorah]], [[Pantheon/{{Toxicity}} Hedora]], [[Pantheon/{{Colours}} Char Aznable]]

* Alignment: NeutralGood

* Admires [[Pantheon/{{War}} X]] and Optimus Prime for their beliefs on coexistence and considers them both allies, to which they share the sentiment. He's even tried to get some of the more human-hating deities like [[Pantheon/BossDesign Viridi]], [[Pantheon/{{Food}} Ika Musume]], and [[Pantheon/PowerMentalities Elpizo]] to warm up to them, and while he hasn't had much luck he has avoided being brutally attacked by any of them, so there might be some hope yet.

* Heralds: [[Characters/BayonettaInferno Madama Butterfly]] (her summon), [[Characters/BayonettaMainCharacters Luka Redgrave]][[spoiler:/Strider (her husband)]], and [[Characters/BayonettaMainCharacters Viola]] [[spoiler:(her daughter)]]

* Allies: '''[[Pantheon/BossFightsAToM Jeanne]], [[Pantheon/OrderAndChaos Loki]], [[Pantheon/{{Workmanship}} Rodin]], [[Pantheon/ActsOfWar Queen Sheba]], [[Pantheon/ColorCombinations Father Balder]]''' (her father, formerly thought of as an enemy), [[Pantheon/EmotionalCombat Akeno]] [[Pantheon/LustfulActs Himejima]], [[Pantheon/{{Hunters}} Dante Sparda]], [[Pantheon/WeaponizedAppendages Millia Rage]], [[Pantheon/BladedWeapons Jack Cayman]], [[Pantheon/OtherWeaponTropes Big Bull]], [[Pantheon/ClothingTheme Blacker Baron]], [[Pantheon/{{Costumes}} Kuroka]], [[Pantheon/LoveOther Rias Gremory]], [[Pantheon/ClothingTheme Lady Gaga]], [[Pantheon/LustfulActs Mondo Zappa]], [[Pantheon/HeroicArchetypes Rick Taylor and The Terror Mask]], [[Pantheon/IntrovertCharacterization Ryouna]], [[Pantheon/{{Gaming}} Sonic the Hedgehog]], [[Pantheon/{{Demons}} Morrigan and Lilith Aensland]], [[Pantheon/{{Teleporting}} Lena Oxton/Tracer]], [[Pantheon/PhysicalAttractiveness Boa Hancock]], [[Pantheon/{{Shapeshifters}} Shantae]] ([[VitriolicBestBuds sort of]]), [[Pantheon/{{Underclothes}} Trish]] ([[FriendlyRivalry sort of]]), [[Pantheon/FightingStyles Lady]], [[Pantheon/FieldsOfMagic Kat (DmC)]], [[Pantheon/{{Thieves}} Ren Amamiya/Phantom Thief Joker]], [[Pantheon/ValuesAndEthics The Emperor of Mankind]], [[Pantheon/{{Demons}} Sparda]]

** At one point, much to Excellen's horror, she was unable to say anything except words or sentences she has said before, losing touch with [[Creator/YukoMizutani something]]. As much as she tried to cheer things up via TalkingWithSigns to her friends (or jumbled messages based on the things she has said and recorded in the past), this is a very big blow to the otherwise perpetually cheerful Excellen. Others who were connected through this strange sense of sadness and loss at the same time but were not as physically affected, such as [[Pantheon/FantasticalLeadership Iris of Repliforce]], [[Pantheon/LoveAndAffection Mihoshi Kuramitsu]], and even [[Pantheon/{{Hunters}} Buffy Summers]], came to cheer her up almost every day. 51 days later she regained her normal self, but the occasional pang of wistfulness is still there, and her vocal base seems like it's trying or waiting to change...

** This backfired on them when they met [[Pantheon/{{Power}} Eiji Hino]] and they transformed into an image ''of the Earth'' as it represents Eiji's desire to be a hand to those who need help. They've stayed away from Eiji ever since.

* Admires [[Pantheon/{{War}} X]] and Optimus Prime for their beliefs on coexistence and considers them both allies, to which they share the sentiment. He's even tried to get some of the more human-hating deities like [[Pantheon/BossDesign Viridi]], [[Pantheon/{{Food}} Ika Musume]], and [[Pantheon/{{Power}} Elpizo]] to warm up to them, and while he hasn't had much luck he has avoided being brutally attacked by any of them, so there might be some hope yet.

* The question of whether Dante or Bayonetta is the superior fighter was hotly debated for quite a while amongst the denizens of the Pantheon and was finally answered with a heated Death Battle. For the first time in the contest's history, their allies Trish and Jeanne invited themselves in and assisted their partners before eventually splitting off to clash with one another. The winner turned out to be Dante: the demon hunter edged out the witch in pretty much every regard, ultimately skewering her and blowing her up. [[spoiler:Thankfully, being reduced to LudicrousGibs only lasted a couple minutes. Despite this, she was [[SoreLoser rather sulky]], quietly leaving to blow off some steam on a small army of angels while still physically sore from the after effects. During this, her grumblings revealed she also takes a bit of offense at [[Pantheon/{{War}} Boomstick]] calling her a "Monkey Witch".]] This also closed off the idea of the two ever being together seriously [[spoiler:well before she finally accepted Luka]], something which Dante confirmed immediately after being asked about it. [[spoiler:His reasons for meeting the news rather morosely have nothing to do with any idea that he "missed his shot" with the witch.]]

* In the [[Literature/InfiniteStratos Light Novel]], it was eventually revealed that secretly, [[spoiler: Ichika is not as dense as he seems. He’s known about the girls’ feelings towards him the entire time, he just wants people to think he’s that oblivious because he doesn’t want to pick any girl of his harem over the others. Why would he [[ObfuscatingStupidity set about deliberately invoking]] the CluelessChickMagnet trope on himself for so long? Because he knows that if he were to enter in a relationship with any of his haremettes, they would definitely start fighting each other over him and he doesn’t want to see his friends hurt each other because of him. Naturally, very few people in the Pantheon are aware of this, because he doesn’t want anyone to find out, especially his harem. Among those very few deities who know Ichika’s true nature are Issei Hyodo, who surprisingly managed to deduce the truth on his own, [[Pantheon/{{Thieves}} The Phantom Thieves of Hearts]], who accidentally found out when they tried to explore Ichika’s cognition for unknown reasons, and [[Pantheon/HeroicArchetypes Batman]], who’s naturally prone to know such things about everyone in general. There are also a few other deities who suspect the truth, but they haven’t managed to prove anything or confront Ichika about it yet. Most deities view Ichika as dense and clueless and he prefers it that way]].
