This is arguably the most unorthodox subhouse in the House of Weapons. Not only does it house deities that can use ordinary objects as weapons, but just about everything here (including the floorboards) can be used as a weapon. That said, there is a limit on how many times [[GrievousHarmWithABody a body can be used as a weapon]] per week. After all, someone's going to get tired of being used as an object eventually.

Speedwagon]], [[Pantheon/TechnologicalExperts Rudolph von Stroheim]]''', [[Pantheon/DeathArchetypes William A. Zeppeli]] (his grandfather), [[Pantheon/{{Hunters}} Buffy Summers]], [[Pantheon/{{Advertising}} Spongebob Squarepants]], [[Pantheon/{{Heroism}} Steve Rogers/Captain America]], [[Pantheon/CharacterAdaptations Miyako Gotoukuji]]
* Enemies: '''[[Pantheon/NamingTheme The Pillar Men]]''', [[Pantheon/{{Humanoids}} Millenium]] and most Nazi deities, [[Pantheon/UndeadAndPhasmata Dracula]], [[Pantheon/{{Vampires}} Count Orlock]] and evil vampires as a whole, [[Pantheon/LightAndBrightness Zs'skayr]]
* Caesar A. Zeppeli is the grandson of Joestar ally William A Zeppeli. When he was young his father abandoned their large family, making him a resentful delinquent. However his father left to investigate the Pillar Men, and sacrificed himself to avoid Caesar dying by them. This would lead him to be a student of Lisa Lisa and study the Ripple. Caesar is often seen as a much more amicable than Joseph, but deep down he is more of a {{Delinquent}} than Joseph was. In fact he is nearly as HotBlooded as Joseph [[spoiler:which lead to his death by Wamuu]].
* When he ascended, Joseph was crying ManlyTears and Caesar was calming him down. To most deities, this was merely a reunion of two best friends. To [[YaoiFangirl some female deities]]... it was much more [[HoYay intimate]]. [[TheCasanova Given how popular he is with women]] and hangs out in the House of Pantheon/PersonsOfDesire, [[AmbiguouslyBi it might just mean he's bisexual]].
* Was happy to meet his grandfather. In fact, he was in awe, and the elder agreed to teach Caesar any Hamon techniques Lisa Lisa may have missed out on. Caesar, for his part, is mainly just happy for the opportunity to spend time with his beloved grandfather.
* After hearing about the Pillar Men in the Pantheon, he is preparing to do battle with them once again. This time he won't let his [[HotBlooded hotbloodedness]] cause him to lose. When he heard how Joseph and Wammuu [[WorthyOpponent get along rather well]], he grew to develop a begrudging respect over [[spoiler:the one who killed him, and is preparing a rematch with him]].
* Caesar is a master of the Ripple using bubbles as primary weapons ranging from: using them as dense projectiles, creating an inescapable barrier, creating bubbles that can slice, and creating bubbles that have the ability to refract light, intensifying them not unlike a magnifying glass. A number of vampires bemoaned their vulnerability to ''bubbles'' (except those not WeakenedByTheLight, of course), though the likes of Dracula and Zs'skayr do admit [[HeartIsAnAwesomePower it's not a power to underestimate]].
* Spongebob was immediately interested in Caesar Zeppeli due to his power over bubbles, due to being a master bubble blower himself. While he found Spongebob geeky, Caesar recognized the potential he has in combining his bubble skill with the Ripple. Count Orlock was frustrated by this considering [[VillainsOutShopping on his off days]] [[Recap/SpongeBobSquarePantsS2E16GraveyardShiftKrustyLove he chills at the Krusty Krab and messes with the lights]]. Asides from him, Miyako Gotoukuji, the Bubbles of Powerpuff Girls Z, joined in his heroic endeavors due to her own talent with using bubbles as a weapon.
* Yes, Italy was an ally of Nazi Germany, but about the only ascended Nazi the younger Zeppeli tolerates is Stroheim. Mainly because he was an ally and cares more about strength and national pride than the horrific xenophobia Nazis are known for, such as [[Pantheon/MotivationsForEvil the Red Skull]]. And though America fought against Italy among the rest of the Axis in World War II, Captain America finds him a perfectly good person and respects his combat against the super-vampires like the Pillar Men. Funnily, one of Steve Roger's foes, Baron Blood, is both a Nazi and a ''vampire''.
** Even some Nazi deities approved of Caesar using the Ripple on Millennium's forces. Though this may be less EvenEvilHasStandards and more deriding them for being obsessed with carnage and death over actual Nazi goals.
* Should not be confused for the other [[Pantheon/AnthropomorphicAnimals Caesar]], though he very much respects the ape. He isn't related to [[Pantheon/ActsOfWar Julius Caesar]] either.
* Some gods claim that they can hear [[Pantheon/{{Workmanship}} Nostalgia Critic]] yelling "'''Fucking''' '''''BUBBLES!'''''" when he uses his powers. Conversely, [[Pantheon/{{Gaming}} The Angry Video Game Nerd]] finds Caesar's use of bubbles to be pretty stupid; sword, magic lightning bolts, fireballs, a gun or even undefined pixelated pieces of shit seem better, literally anything than bubbles. Still, he'll give props to the bubbles not being as shitty in practice, not like in ''VideoGame/MilonsSecretCastle''.

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/donkeykongssbu.png]]

* 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.
** This has finally been fixed since Cranky has been given his own shrine within the House of Emotion.
* Often gets into fights with Mario for a variety of reasons. It's all in good fun though.
* Had a bit of a laugh with [[Pantheon/{{Food}} Gordon Ramsay]] calling him a "Donkey". The chef had to take the insult back when he realized who he was speaking to (that and Donkey Kong had a barrel ready to throw at his face).
* When spoken with by gods that can understand him, DK comes off as well-meaning, if a little on the dim side. A translator was finally able to tell others what his ape howl meant when he jumped into a fight. [[{{Catchphrase}} "Banana Slamma!"]]
* Donkey Kong actually regularly visits the House of Music, and is a better singer, in his own tongue, than one might suspect. He is also a lover of bongo drums, though it's advised to keep a ''safe'' distance when he really starts playing.
* Finally giving up after the latest theft, Donkey Kong has asked that his personal banana hoard is moved into the Pantheon Treasury so he might ''finally'' be able to eat his bananas in peace.
* Some people have said that Donkey Kong likes to "[[MemeticMutation expand his dong and shower people in coconut cream pies while allowing them to spank him once]]". [[BestialityIsDepraved We would rather not discuss that]].
* Donkey Kong is scheduled for a [[WebAnimation/DeathBattle fight to the "death"]] with [[Pantheon/NonVehicularTravel Knuckles the Echidna]]. Donkey Kong is very confident in his victory, since [[ComicallyMissingThePoint gorillas are way bigger than echidnas]]. [[spoiler:It turns out his confidence was justified: DK came out on top because of his power, durability, and horrific rage at Knuckles eating one of his bananas... [[PyrrhicVictory though he lost most of his hoard in the process]].]]
* Has turned to be [[spoiler:a champion in the World Video Boxing Association, and is thus invited for the tournaments of the Pantheon/PunchOut deities]].
** He also uses one of his boxing gloves to play baseball. Many others cried foul at this (Lakitu included), but the results he brings with it is something those who called foul eventually relented on, but are glad that he doesn't punch them in the field. Good at pitching too, but he uses a regular mitt while on the field. Not bad at fielding either, with him being able to climb the walls coming in handy to prevent home runs. Spongebob learned it the hard way in a match against the DK Kongs.
** Shows up in other sports as well, but he uses regular implements instead (kind of hard to play golf, tennis, soccer, and drive a kart with boxing gloves).
* Sometimes teams up with Amigo and Diddy Kong and plays music with them in the House of Pantheon/{{Music}}. He is also willing to share a banana with him on his spare time.
* Is more than excited to find out that Pauline is in the Pantheon properly. He is more than willing to either spend time with her legally or to kidnap her, albeit at her request as part of a plan or to just take a break from her hectic work life. [[{{Irony}} Ironically, he did have to save her from King Kong himself after he mistook her]] [[{{Expy}} for someone else he was familiar with]].
* For those who don't know, he is the third of his name, with the original being Cranky Kong (his grandfather and paternal figure) and the second being Junior (presumably his father).

* Gyro was the mentor of Johnny Joestar, guiding him until the latter mastered the Spin, while also participating in the nation wide horse race "Steel Ball Run". He has ascended by request of Johnny Joestar and the two friends reunited.
* His Stand Scan allows him to see through people's bodies, enhance his vision, and enhances his aptitude for the Spin.
* [[spoiler:After losing Scan, he later gained the Stand Ball Breaker, which through the application of energy, allows him to accelerate the target's age. Through the use of the Super Spin, it can afford its effectiveness across dimensions.]]
* ''[[CatchPhrase Nyohoho!]]''
* Many of the gods find his jokes to be indecipherable even to some of the {{Cloudcuckoolander}}s, though they do try.
--> Pizza mozzarella pizza mozzarella rella rella rella
* Dislikes Dio Brando, finding him as a even worse version of Diego Brando, though he is surpised that Dio doesn't turn into a dinosaur like Diego. Johnny had also informed him of how [[spoiler:he faced an alternate version of Diego summoned by Funny Valentine, who behaved more like Dio and also had The World as his Stand]].
* Gyro has allied with Roy Mustang due to having [[Creator/ShinichiroMiki similar voices]]. Ditto for Lockon Stratos and Aikuro Mikisugi.

* {{Friendly Enem|y}}ies With: [[Pantheon/MannersOfDeath Raoh]], Adell
* WorthyOpponent: [[Pantheon/MilitaryAndWarfare Mori Motonari]]
* 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. Things went on a boost when Hideyoshi's strategist, Otani Yoshitsugu, ascended.
* 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.
* Recently he has been working towards finding a seat of power to ensure Hanbei Takenaka's ascension next. Once all of his top retainers have reached godhood, he can begin to move forward. However, as of recent, he seemed to be delaying the project, waiting for one more top retainer... Sakon Shima.
* Considers Mori Motonari as a worthy opponent.
* Dian Wei despite being a bit close with Hideyoshi, tends to upset him when he feels he needs to change for the better. Hideyoshi retorts by saying his rule is much more guaranteed than Cao Cao's of all people.
* Surprisingly enough, he gets confused with either [[Pantheon/FamilyAndRelatives Piccolo]] or [[Pantheon/PrideAndEgotism Vegeta]], due to having them a [[Creator/ChristopherSabat same voice]].
** Speaking of similar voices, Hideyoshi was once found in heated combat with [[Pantheon/TimePlacement Garland]]. While Toyotomi was as focused as ever in a fight, Garland could be heard commenting [[BloodKnight just how entertaining the fight was.]]
** On the other side of the pacific, Hideyoshi has been constantly [[Creator/RyotaroOkiayu mistaken]] for [[Pantheon/{{Anger}} Terra]], or four other portrayals from Koei being [[VideoGame/DynastyWarriors Sima Yi, Sima Shi]], [[VideoGame/WarriorsOrochi Demon/Serpent King Orochi]] and even [[VideoGame/SamuraiWarriors Chosokabe]] [[Pantheon/RidingAndControl Motochika]] of all people.
* Hideyoshi has learned somewhere from his 'origin' that had he succeeded unifying the Land of the Rising Sun, he would've continued to expand the borders into the land called 'Korea' through a bloody campaign... although it ended with the 'origin' failing. Hideyoshi claims that if he would have his current army, he would've succeeded in his 'origin''s stead.
** [[VideoGame/AgeOfEmpiresII He eventually gave it a shot]], but was driven back by Yi Sun-Shin and his secret weapons: turtle ships and summoning forth several deities sworn to defend Korea (such as [[VideoGame/FatalFury Kim Kaphwan]]). Hideyoshi had no choice but to admit that Yi was [[WorthyOpponent was pretty impressive]] to hold off his army, but Hideyoshi was holding back because [[VideoGame/SengokuBasara he did not go down there himself and started tossing the Korean soldiers like rag dolls]]. He told the Korean leader to enjoy their victory while it lasted.
* He also learned how in another timeline [[VideoGame/{{Onimusha}} he was kind of a weasel that submitted to the power of Genma]]. Hideyoshi is ''[[OldShame not amused]]'' and [[EvenEvilHasStandards swore that he will bury that image with his fist, and the Genma along with it]]. And so, when Fortinbras came to offer him strength again, Hideyoshi had a violent battle and ended up throwing Fortinbras out of his house and gave a law that all who fights under the Toyotomi banner must NEVER succumb to Genma influence, or else they get splattered with his fist.
* Lately Hideyoshi has been having a certain fit of headaches that required him to rest, which would result him dreaming on fighting [[VideoGame/SamuraiWarriors a certain man who claimed to be himself, wielding a sansetsukon while looking more monkey-like]], and claims that he's nothing but a tyrant, and a ruler should strive to make a land where the people can be happy. Hideyoshi usually rebuked that he'd rather have his people strong than happy, and the fact that this alternate Hideyoshi still had his Nene makes him a weakling unworthy of the throne (he killed his Nene to prove his commitment to power). But the battle never concluded because Hideyoshi always woke up mid-battle.
** However, after seeing what kind of work he's done to Mitsunari's personality, the staff-wielding Hideyoshi is more determined than ever to bring down the gorilla man. He also fears while he's already launched his historical-self's "infamous Korean Campaign" again with the same ill success as with his historical counterpart, he may try it again; now that he's returned from his death by Ieyasu's hands, staff-wielding-Hideyoshi is having none of that.
*** Due to more recent visions, he deems the 'fat-gentleman Ieyasu', 'ambiguously-evil Nobunaga' and several others who'd outright oppose his power as even more threats on his plate, as they are the same ones who'd go against him only double due to being alternate incarnations...a rivalry he hopes will come to blows sooner rather then later. He is also more jealous than ever of the "monkey-man's" friendship with Saika Magoichi, a famous name of certain individuals of a clan he never got along with.
*** Recently, gorilla-Hideyoshi seems to be winning an argument against monkey-Hideyoshi in that since they are the [[UsefulNotes/ToyotomiHideyoshi same person]], then what they do is no different; there appears to be another timeline of monkey-Hideyoshi ending up just as cold-and-cruel just to enforce peace, only to break down in despair of what he's done when faced at a weak moment. While the gorilla taunts away, the monkey admits this and is not afraid to say that both of them can change for the better.
*** Gorilla-Hideyoshi is also amused at the shamisen-version-Motochika's [[Creator/RyotaroOkiayu voice]]. It sounds JUST like his own, as mentioned before; but in Hideyoshi's case he's often the most baffled since the Motochika he remembers is a lot more rowdy and clearly is a pirate that needs to be subjugated in his eyes. However, both the anchor-pirate and the shamisen wielder have stated to him that they would defy the fate he would forcefully place upon them to the very end.
*** He's also recently met Nene (the ninja one), and he seems to feel a hint of wavering in front of her. Nene tried to convince him to change, but the gorilla man tried to kill her the same he did with his Nene after overpowering her in battle; Basara-Keiji and Koei-Hideyoshi came in on time, with the latter swearing to bring him to death, even if he'd [[HeroicSacrifice risk his own life in the process due to their lifelink]].

* Complicated Relationship: The House of Pantheon/DeathAndPostmortem and Pantheon/LuckAndFortune
* One of the most dangerous people that come from Nevada, Tricky started as just [[MauveShirt another of the many grunts that defended the Sheriff]] from Hank Wimbleton's wrath and he was taken down as easily as any other foe. Though in Hank's second attempt at trying to kill the sheriff, Tricky was killed (again) and zombified only to be killed yet again. But then Tricky became Hank's primary ArchEnemy, returning with a portable improbability device that allows him to manipulate reality however he wants, and he did so by [[{{Sadist}} torturing Hank and constantly reviving and killing him just for his own amusement]]. One of his many weapons is a stop sign with a "!" that he totes as his weapon and allowed him to achieve a place in the Pantheon.
* Tricky at first just came to the Pantheon for one simple reason: to kill Hank again. And once he found him...let's just say the entire House of Pantheon/{{Slaughter}} was destroyed in the process. Eventually both Tricky and Hank came back to life, but before they could resume the fight the Pantheon authorities stepped in and stop both of them before things got out of hand. Tricky has been a constant nuisance for Hank and now that he is in the Pantheon he intends to make his stay a living nightmare.
* Tricky is a special case regarding death since he tends to die [[TheyKilledKennyAgain a lot]], even resurrecting minutes after being killed and rarely respawning like most deities who happen to get killed in the Pantheon. That's because of the Portable Improbability Drive stuck inside his head which also gives him access to all sorts of reality altering powers, and even in the off-chance the device is destroyed, he will come back via normal resurrections or the rare intervention of his universe's Higher Powers. And not many people (Save for Hank) have actually tried to kill Tricky. Why? '''''BECAUSE YOU DO NOT KILL CLOWN! CLOWN KILLS YOU!!!!!'''''
* Tricky is not always actively trying to kill everybody he comes accross, he's been trying to make some friends cause he knows he's bound to make plenty of enemies. Surprisingly, he and Pennywise became good friends even if the two have widely different methods when it comes to disposing of their enemies. Similarly, the Violator, Needles Kane and The Joker all consider him a kindred spirit and whenever they need a bit of an assistance in their chaotic schemes, they are sure to bring Tricky along for the ride. And the Klowns think of him as some sort of god or chosen one given his powers.
* But not all of the clowns were as welcoming to Tricky, especially considering how much of a loose cannon he can be. As usual, another evil insane clown certainly didn't amuse Ronald [=McDonald=], but he wasn't the only one. Other notably chaotic deities like Vex found Tricky to be [[EvenEvilHasStandards exceptionally hard to get along with]], though they know better than to provoke him. And there is Marx, who is probably one of the few that is willing to engage Tricky on his brand of madness just to see how far he can go in a fight.
* Tricky's origins actually predate his time in Nevada, apparently he has been seen in other places before, even maskerading as [[Videogame/CastleCrashers Orange Princess]] one time but that Tricky could possibly be unrelated to the zombified monstosity that terrorizes the Pantheon on a daily basis. In fact, he once decided to pull that trick by disguising himself as [[Pantheon/{{Heirs}} Daisy]] to see how many people he could fool. [[NoodleIncident After he was outed, half of the house was left in shambles]].
* He is well aware that several deities are afraid of clowns and he uses that fear to pull a few pranks on them. Billy is one of his favourite targets simply because he becomes a sobbing mess, to the point that Tricky spends more time tormenting Billy than actively trying to kill Hank. Once he gets bored, he tends to mess with Columbus from the Zombieland group (who has dealt with zombie clowns in the past) and he knows it's hopeless to fight the clown and tries to appease him in any way he can, but that ultimately gets Columbus killed anyway.
* Tricky is probably one of the strongest zombies in the Pantheon that isn't a god of death already but considering what he can do, he might as well be. His status as a zombie is due to being resurrected by the Higher Powers, the true Gods of Nevada, after Hank's second attempt at killing the Sheriff. Several deities that come from a ZombieApocalypse are utterly terrified of the clown. His sheer brutality actual caught the attention of Khorne, who suggested Tricky to join his forces but the clown seems to not be interested in serving the chaos god, but Khorne is just content with seeing the clown go to town with his enemies.
* His status as an undead force definitely caught the ire of Meridia, and the daedric prince is not someone to be messed with. She personally came to his temple to smite him into oblivion but Tricky, like usual, put a hell of a fight and almost managed to subdue the daedric prince but before they could cause more damage, the authorities managed to resolve the situation and momentarily destroy Tricky so Meridia would back down and she did eventually. Tricky later came back like usual and occasionally takes a shot or two at Meridia's temple because he is still pretty salty about losing that one battle.
* The Improbability Drive has been compared to the powers of the Scarlet Witch and Wanda certainly is not a huge fan of Tricky, considering him a menace to the Pantheon as a whole that hasn't gotten out of hand because of his petty grudge against Hank Wimbleton. Tricky has claimed he can beat her in a fight but find her a boring opponent, a claim that Wanda finds preposterous.
* Sometimes when he is in a good mood, he likes to go to the House of Pantheon/{{Music}} and act as a dj, and some have stated he is pretty good at it. Whenever he is around the house he tends to be pretty relaxed but can be provoked into a fight if you piss him off enough (or if Hank wanders in, he's been known to start fights for a boombox after all).
** He also had a short-lived bit as a train conductor, obviously another his many attempts at messing with Hank after he ripped his head off. He attempted to continue his job as a conductor by hijacking Thomas the Tank Engine but grew bored after he realized that Thomas was just a simple train with no extra abilities and decided to roll with his own train instead. Thomas is still traumatized about the experience and would rather not talk about it.
* Tricky is also known to antagonize Shizuo Heiwajima because he dislikes him also using a stop sign as a weapon and Shizuo in turn dislikes him for embodying everything he hates about a person, makin Izaya seem tame in comparison. Shizuo surprisingly is hard to put down for Tricky and even all the reality manipulation that the improbability drive allows has done little to stop Shizuo's seemingly unending determination.
* Not fond of those that [[MessianicArchetype resemble Jesus Christ]], given his own history with the man. He often likes to attack Aslan unprovoked with his signature stop sign, something that the Lion finds incredibly annoying and a constant nuisance like Tricky has certainly made his stay in the Pantheon quite difficult.
* Not many know of Tricky's former life as [[spoiler:Dr. Hoffnarr, one of the members of Project Nexus that years later became the clown we all know after going severely insane. He is also one of Dr. Christoff's old colleagues, who would later become Jebus Christ]].

* A formerly retired professional wrestler from the Canopy Kingdom, he was hailed as a hero for defeating (and killing) a [[OurGiantsAreBigger Gigan]] called Grendel in a wrestling match. Where he eventually fell into obscurity, he returned back to the ring to defeat the current Skullgirl with his trusty chair "The Hurting", Grendel's severed arm and his wrestling skills.
* He managed to ascend partly because of [[DarkHorseVictory how much the crowd wanted him to return back to the ring]]. In the first exhibition match in the Pantheon, the crowd went wild when he stepped onto the ring. The Wulfamania is running wild and he ain't stopping!
* Where he might be a mere Lesser God, do not underestimate him. [[spoiler:Sure, Grendel was drugged so that Beowulf could beat him, and then he killed his rather frail mother, but he can possibly beat [[EldritchAbomination Double]], [[HumanoidAbomination Marie]] and Grendel in his full strength more or less ''alone'']]. He also doesn't simply throw people way heavier than him, he ''picks them up, carries them around'' and ''then'' throws them.
* He tends to avoid any gods with necromancy powers in the fear that they might use Grendel's arm against him.
* Note that he is NOT based on Kanji Tatsumi. Beowulf himself admits that where Kanji has the potential of becoming a good wrestler after having a match with him, he thinks that he is bit too rough on the edges. That, and he really should stop breaking his chairs.
** He sees Edge as a rival though, especially when it comes to the Rated-R Superstar performing his famous Con-Chair-Tos on them.
* His title is meant to read as bashing people with chair, not [[DieChairDie bashing the chair itself]].
* For whatever reason, anytime he does his [[FinishingMove grand finisher]], Canis Major Press, [[Pantheon/ChefsAndEstablishments Mr. Champloo]] comes up to count the pins. He says that he sounds like [[Creator/ChristopherCoreySmith his usual referee]].
* Is buddies with Captain Qwark due the fact that [[spoiler:he himself was a fake hero, even if he only found out about it way later, and trying to make up for it later.]]
* Sympathises with Yamcha as Beowulf knows what it's like to be considered a loser. Beowulf has even taken to [[PaletteSwap wearing Yamcha's colours]] sometimes during matches to honour him.

* Bridget was born one of two male twins, children of a wealthy family in England. From a young age, Bridget's life was destined to be one of hardship and strife, their very birth harboring fears of a curse damning both the twins and their entire family line. Due to this societal fear and to avoid [[OneTwinMustDie killing or exiling one of them]], she was made to dress and act like a woman. Noting of her parents' guilt for doing as such, Bridget eventually became a bounty hunter, hoping that the gift of wealth and fame would help defy this tradition.
* Following their [[VideoGame/GuiltyGearXX original appearance]] and demotion from being the God of [[UnsettlingGenderReveal Unsettling Gender-Reveals]], Bridget wandered her world aimlessly, desiring to find some newfound purpose in her life. Yes, she proved to the world the curse within her village was mere falsehood, but the nagging sense of dissatisfaction and worry continued to plague her mind. However, upon confiding with Goldlewis Dickinson and Ky Kiske on the matter, Bridget at long last came to the truth on her identity. At that very moment, proudly declaring to the world that she was a woman, she ascended once more.
* As per her designation, Bridget was inspired to use her yo-yo-based fighting style after being given one by her father as a present. Ever since then, Bridget has both used her talent to perform shows in her local town and [[BewareTheCuteOnes strike down the criminals she seeks]]. Outside of this profession, Bridget additionally applies this talent of hers towards a hobby she developed back home, performing for crowds using her incredible yo-yoing skills. A common sight in any plaza or open market nearby the House of Commerce, Bridget has built up a decently-sized fanbase within the pantheon because of this, with some of the younger or more playful members of it making a point to regularly attend their exhibitions.
** During a gig in front of a particularly large crowd, Bridget's act was interrupted by a sudden declaration of a challenge, with the cry being met with a sudden snap forward by a winding cord. The source of this asserted demand of a contest came from within the heart of the congregation, coming from a particular Frenchwoman. Bridget was at first unsure (and a little annoyed) at the abrupt change within her act, but never being one to turn down a challenge, she was more than happy to accept a humble showing of strength between the two heroes. While the two were equal in terms of skill, it was her challenger's grace and dance-like moments that truly wowed the bounty hunter's mind, something that not even she could fully replicate. With onlookers placing their cheering clearly on her opponent's side, Bridget was quick to inquire over the nature of her foe, alongside the chance of them to train alongside each other. Introducing herself as Marinette Dupain-Cheng, Ladybug was pleased in hearing of her shared fighting style and the methods Bridget used them for, happily agreeing to serve as Bridget's muse. With this connection, Bridget and Ladybug have since become close friends, be they brainstorming new uses for their weaponry or just hanging out with each other in general.
** On a separate occasion, when Bridget was in the process of heading back home after one of her spectacles, she was approached by a child who watched their show. Sheepishly introducing himself as Ned Needlemeyer, the troubled child first made a humble compliment to the skill Bridget possessed, before attempting to explain his situation to the fighter. Key word here being "attempt", as he could get into the introduction for his point before his apprehension broke his composure, [[MotorMouth going on an anxiety-fueled oratory about his situation as he loudly cursed his fate]]. After calming them down after this nervous breakdown and getting them to clearly explain their need of help, however, Bridget was more than happy to help give Needlemeyer the skills he needs to confront whatever terror his dreams throw at him. Ever since this meeting, Bridget has repeatedly served as a tutor of sorts for them, both teaching the boy how to properly fight using their unorthodox weaponry and trying to build the confidence Needlemeyer desperately needs through affirming pep talk.
*** After these incidents, Bridget was inspired to discover other gods within the pantheon who also fought using the humble yo-yo, both to serve as inspiration for inventive uses of her technique and just to make friends in general. Coming across Sophia, Ness, and Killua in such a manner, Bridget has since talked them into joining a small yo-yo club she created alongside Ladybug and Needlemeyer. Practicing their craft together, Bridget made the club out of a desire to help improve their collective talents, be it through honed strength or the gelling of ideas. When talking to members outside of their sessions, Bridget related heavily to the backgrounds Sophia and Killua come from, praising their decision to throw away their pre-determined yoke to become the person they desire to be.
** As Bridget was going about her business one day, a pair of guards approached them. Together, the two men informed her that their master specifically requested their presence, and that denying his aid would not be an option. While Bridget could tell right away that their intimidating nature was little more than an act, the alternative to agreeing to their demands - a one-way ticket to imprisonment - wasn't something she could simply grin and bear. Heading with them past the House of Law and Justice, she trailed behind the two cronies until they entered into a morose hamlet. Guided into a corner away from prying eyes, she was greeted by a stout, older man in a state of distress. While normally one to abhor merriment in all forms, the man Bridget came to know as Burgermeister was in an even worse mood than normal, something he was free to vent on as he explained his situation. In truth, Bridget was the few to learn of the mayor's secret love of his yo-yo, but after he got a tad too careless during his free time, the cord to his prized toy snapped in twain. After having his minions search for one who could repair its string, word of Bridget's designation caught the ear of the mayor, being determined that they help him out of his situation. A bit shocking for them, Bridget was actually more than ok than giving his yo-yo its needed appendage. Snatching it from the girl before her fingers slid by the ring, Burgermeister honestly thanked Bridget for her work before ordering her away, warning her not to expect any special treatment should she get the idea of playing in his domain of Sombertown due to this. Still, the grouchy official can sometimes been seen looking on to any showings from afar, trying to copy anything he sees during them out of secret endearment. As for Bridget's own thoughts on the man, while she stands opposed to the ludicrous laws he uses to smother any form of happiness, she hopes to one day convince the man to admit he doesn't despise toys as he thinks he does.
* Upon their return home, Bridget was notified of her twin brother's disappearance. While she has not yet found them, she still hopes to find them in an effort to bring her family closer together. Perhaps then, she will reveal her identity to them, in an effort to find acceptance. When mentioning this matter in an off-handed manner to Ness, the child directed them into talking to Lucas on the matter, hoping for them to serve as an outlet for his sorrows. This ultimately worked, as upon hearing of their past, Bridget resolved herself to give company towards the mournful psychic. Such behavior has earned the approval of Hinawa, who hopes that Bridget would help fill the Claus-shaped hole within her son's heart.
** This connection with Lucas has also made Bridget aware of other presences within Lucas' past. One day, as Bridget joined Lucas and his mother out on a shopping trip, she couldn't shake the feeling of being watched from afar. Scanning the rooftops above, Bridget was startled to find a strange, masked figure watching from a nearby ledge, a look of mournful longing apparent even behind its helmet. However, when Bridget took pursuit of the stalker, it took flight before she could scale its side, left only with the image of it flying away and the stench of jet fuel. After Bridget met up back with them, Lucas' jaw was halfway to hitting the floor upon his friend mentioning this, knowing right away on who this person was. Being informed on the identity of this figure, Bridget plans to track down and ensnare this onlooker, revealed to them to be Claus, should they ever find them again. While their history isn't the same, she is no stranger to having undesired identities forced upon them, so Bridget hopes to use this fact to convince Claus that he isn't some hideous monster because of it. Should their family be at last reunited due to this coaxing (although being able to give Porky a well-deserved thrashing), Bridget hopes that Lucas can finally be at peace.
* Bridget was once a god belonging to the House of [[Pantheon/GenderSexMiscellaneous Miscellaneous Gender Traits]]. However, following her removal from her original designation and eventually return to the pantheon, she eventually found herself within a different group of gods. While she at first found it difficult for them to connect with their new compatriots, fellow ''Guilty Gear'' god May helped them form bonds with them, allowing her to better integrate into their small community. Still, Bridget maintains a strong connection with her former housemates.
** Lady Oscar was the first to greet Bridget upon their return, springing from a kinship the two shared from their days together in the same house. In turn, Bridget's respect for Lady Oscar remains, honoring their chivalry and distaste for the corrupt. However, something that came as a particular shock to the noble was the revelation of Bridget's status as transgender, with this pivot coming as a shock to them. Still, Oscar's interest remains within her friend's happiness, being happy with whatever direction her life leads them.
** After hearing this news, Oscar was among the first to inform her fellow gods of Bridget's current identity. With the news of someone with [[Creator/ArcSystemWorks a shared origin]] sharing their thoughts on gender, Mai Natsume's elation was not hidden in the slightest. Practically charging towards them, Mai was quick to congratulate the young hero on breaking the shackles fate threw upon them, their connection with them growing to an even larger extent. On the opposite side of connection, Crona (as expected) never approached Bridget formally upon their reintroduction, sticking to side-chat above anything. Upon Bridget's notification, Crona was quick to give a raised thumb to the news. Any attempts Bridget has given in giving solace for their DarkAndTroubledPast was made with a mere shrug on hir end, namely due to Crona's [[WhatIsThisFeeling indifference to strong connections]].
*** The other trans fighting game character who was delighted into hearing of Bridget's transition was Poison. Congratulating them shortly after being ecstatically told of this by Natsume, Bridget's appreciation with her only grew, aided by an existing love for her proud demeanor. That being said, not everything Poison has going for them sits well with Bridget. Namely, the [[TransgenderFetishization role they possess]] makes Bridget a bit uncomfortable, reminding them of their earlier days all too well. Still, Bridget has accepted an offer for Poison to serve as the girl's coach, helping inspire Bridget using their whip-based attacks for ideas of yo-yo techniques.
** When meeting back up with Ranma Saotome, Hideri Kanzaki, and Chevalier d'Eon, Bridget still treats the three of them as encouraged by them, not wanting to appear too forceful on their ways. However, she isn't above advising the three of them to look inward at themselves, in order to find out who they really are. This is something whose response depends on the ideals the three gods possessed in relation to it. Ranma and Hideri were ones to quickly brush the idea off, based on a distaste for their curse on the former and being happy as they are on the latter. Ad for d'Eon, they were fine with Bridget calling them whatever they thought they were, not being one for the labels one places upon them.
*** While not a part of the same pantheon, Bridget has also acted as a sort of makeshift therapist for Narancia Ghirga, on days he is particularly troubled by his [[DudeLooksLikeALady feminine appearance]]. Bridget did attempt to pry into Narancia's frustrations by suggesting hidden dysphoria, only to be shot down by the gangster admitting he's fine as is. Still, Narancia still confides in their advice on what they should do to cure their issues, liking the confidence they possess for themselves. In turn, Bridget has gone on record to say she holds a great deal of respect for Bruno's gang, even if the two of them never formally interacted.
** When hearing of their fears over their parents' response to their new identity, one of the gods Bridget approached for encouragement was those of Mizuki Suzushiro and Takeru Ichimoji, asking questions in relation to the bond they share. Word of this concern Bridget possessed eventually found its way into the Sub-House of X-Mas and Yule, sparking interest from one particular group of its members. Dragging the other members of her family by their coat hoods, Hana eventually found Bridget during a time they were especially worried about this. While skeptic at first by the proposition of spending time with these strangers, Bridget eventually agreed to the idea set forth by the three. This was a decision Bridget came to honor, being moved to tears not just by a speech of reaffirmation by Hana, but by the sheer loving they possessed for each other. Thanking the three profusely for the experience, Bridget now is in regular contact with the family, swearing to help give them any extra cash should they ever find themselves in financial trouble out of gratitude.
* Among her fellow ''Guilty Gear'' gods, Bridget has grown a particularly strong friendship with Ky Kiske. Honored by their kindness nearing the climax of their gender-related struggles, Bridget has made it a point to make it up to the knight in some fashion, when his own soul is struggling with their own inner turmoil. To this end, Ky ensured Bridget to come to them should they need any further assistance, striving to do what is right. Meanwhile, despite their desire to protect their [[BadassNormal less fantastically-powered]] and experienced comrade, Bridget has kindly asked Baiken and Dizzy to not dote on her as much as they used to, swearing that she is just fine fighting on her own. Still, she has remained good friends with the two of them, admitting that she would still request for their help should she need it.
* While Bridget has since forgiven her parents for their past mistreatment, she still manages to have a great deal of sympathy towards those who suffered abuse from their parents. While her own past isn't as severe as others, Bridget relates to the desires many of these figures feel to denounce the bad hand fate has given them by guaranteeing on this success. Among this group, she feels particular sympathy for N, relating to their struggles with trying to be something that is merely enforced by their guardians, when they are in truth something much more than that. As such, Bridget has made a pledge to stand against the Child Abuse Supporters and their allies.
* Bridget is not one afraid to seek out other LGBT+ gods in hopes of developing a bond with them over their shared identities, with this minor quest resulting in some small boons for her. Due to their shared past struggles with their gender identity, Bridget made an immediate connection with Madeline. While Bridget's idea of existence is something Madeline lacks the courage to pursue even after climbing Mount Celeste, the two exist as good friends, with Madeline honoring Bridget's sense of justice. This connection has helped inspire the two into pursuing the other's hobbies, with Madeline helping Bridget get into archery in exchange for teaching her yo-yo tricks. On the flipside of showing one's pride, Bridget has talked to Jack Twist, Ennis del Mar, and Juzo Sakakura after being notified of their struggles with their sexuality, in an attempt to have them open up to the world. It is within Bridget's mind that, should her ideology of being prideful about who they work (learning of this trick from Goldlewis), their moods will dramatically improve.
** A curious case of this connection occurred when Bridget became aware of the existence of Hasta. Bridget remains conflicted over hearing of Hasta's cosplay of her that she did while within Cuuko and Nyarko's argument, namely as the days of her being mere eye candy have long passed. This isn't helped at all upon learning of the truly grand nature of Hasta's being, believing that the act is rather unfitting of the son of ''[[Pantheon/NamingIdentification Hastur]]'', of all people. Still, Bridget remains a decent connection with them over their similarities on other fields, allowing the two to become friends.
* A rumor surrounding a secret fondness for smoked meat has allowed some of the more comedic gods to christen her the nickname of "Brisket". This spiraled into a days-long gag, with these gods trying to think up similarly-sounding, yet ridiculous nicknames for at first Bridget, before it spiraled into affecting every god they can think of. Even those as great as [[Pantheon/{{Villainy}} Morgoth]] and [[Pantheon/{{Ambiguity}} Lucifer]] were not spared from the wrath of this gaggle of gaffs, with sprinkles of "Matzah" and "Laborer" still being in small usage to this day. While most gods responded to these jokes with amusement (if not just tolerance), some of the more fiery-tempered gods responded to these perceived insults in a hostile fashion, ranging from simple tongue-lashings to [[DoNotTauntCthulhu being provoked into attacking the pranksters in question]]. This has since resulted in a decline in these types of jokes, at the behest of gods overseeing meeker deities and concerns from the House of Law and Justice over the potential of injuries resulting from causing short-tempered deities to go on the assault. A largely neutral Bridget is still unsure of the origin of this rumor, alongside who first thought up the joke in the first place.
* Due to her connection to Roger, Bridget has purposefully sought out bear-like gods for the pure sake of doting on them. This has ultimately resulted in them coming into contact Pooh, Paddington, Teddie, and the protagonists of ''We Bare Bears'', charmed by their welcoming, friendly natures. Through their experiences surrounding Paddington and Pooh, the largely carefree existence they live out is something she both takes a liking to and envies, daydreaming about how much better everything would be if life was that simple. This fact is something she praised Christopher Robin on after being introduced to them on Pooh, requesting to the boy that he never loses the sense of whimsy he uses to make the world a brighter, happier place.
** Their connection to Teddie has resulted in a further boon through getting in contact with Naoto Shirogane. Through them, Bridget related to their backstory of needing to mask their true self in the face of societal pressure, and is proud of her for managing to defy this. Furthermore, due to the nature of Personas, Bridget remains curious on their relation to the ghost possessing Roger. Perhaps then, by understanding the nature of what makes Roger tick, she will be able to make her friend able to socialize with the various ursine of the pantheon.
** Although it isn't much of a talking piece, the bear Bridget came to respect the most was that of SCP-2295. Bridget first happened upon the living plushie after a noticeably rough day in her yo-yo club, with a bout of accidents leaning to some of the younger members seeking it out to treat any lacerations they received. Discovering its existence by following them out of curiosity, she was mesmerized by the care and love the strange creature took in ensuring their patient's health, literally giving its own "skin" to treat its patients. While Bridget ultimately doesn't care what the SCP Foundation gets up to (remarking that it's "something Goldlewis would adore, but not me."), she can't help but eavesdrop on sessions of its care, making sure to silently thank it for inspiring happiness wherever it ends up.
* It hasn't all been good with the bears, though. Indeed, while a fair portion of the bears found as gods as sociable enough, much of what Bridget has befriended falls into the category of not being fully animalistic. Even with the real and heroic ursine within the pantheon, it's all too common that those representing the ursine [[BearsAreBadNews aren't exactly good company]]. The gods Bridget opposes in this group includes the following:
** One warm summer day as Bridget practiced her craft within a forest clearing, sending Roger off to go explore in her stead. However, after Roger failed to return for some time, Bridget sought out to search for her companion. As she was calling out to him from the woods' edge, what was thought to be a mere animal rustling through the undergrowth turned out to be Roger, running in terror from a murderous Naughty Bear. Horrified by this sight, Bridget moved quickly to knock the knife from the barbarous bear's hand, before scooping Roger into her arms and making a run for it. Ever since then, Bridget always keeps one eye open when even remotely near the House of Slaughter, just in case she needs to defend her companion from another assault.
** On another occasion, Bridget once happened upon a strange teddy bear nearby the House of Otherness. Charmed by its silent yet seemingly friendly demeanor, she was lured closer and closer into a secluded area, until the beast was scared off by a group of strange researchers. These men were, in truth, part of the SCP Foundation, keeping tabs on one of their contained creatures. Upon learning the truth of what the bear (in truth SCP-1048) was capable of, Bridget was disgusted beyond compare. Despite her apathy towards the SCP Foundation's operations, Bridget still made it a point to oppose SCP-1048 whenever possible, regardless of what it planned to do with her that day.
** Something Bridget was equally disgusted upon hearing of the cruel-hearted actions the Tediz employed. Ever since hearing about it, Bridget can hardly comprehend the thought of "something that should be totally harmfully, but just so, so ''wrong!''". In response to their atrocities, the thought of sending Roger into their compound as a sleeper agent did brush her mind, masquerading as a new recruit in order to shut them down from the inside. However, the thought of thrusting her life-long companion headlong into danger is something Bridget wasn't comfortable with, wanting to at least send Roger an ally should things go south.
** Bridget attempted to approach Bashmaster on one occasion, thinking that he would make as just as welcoming a companion as some of the more realistic bears within the pantheon. Creeping up to the beast's temple, Bridget tried to introduce themselves to them as it was feasting on its frozen treats. Its response to being interrupted from its snacktime by a mere human was swift and furious, with the hammer-wielding general chasing after Bridget in an attempt to squish her flat. While Bridget can understand their desire to be left to its lonesome, Bridget made it clear that she will fight against the beast should she ever make contact with it again after she heard of its allegiance with the Snowmads.
* While they no longer identify with their identity, Bridget has maintained something of a friendship with Astolfo. However, this friendship often translates into the pink-haired paladin dragging their friend along into his crazy adventures, not exactly caring if she wants to or not. While Bridget doesn't mind the servant herself, but does lament on the situations she is often forced into because of his antics. Still, the carefree nature they conduct themselves in is something Bridget admires, so overall, she doesn't find the knight's company all too bad.

* Disliked by: [[Pantheon/AnthropomorphicAnimals Dr. Zaius]]
* Diddy Kong is Donkey Kong's most frequent ally for whenever trouble is afoot. Given his small stature, he is more agile than DK is, but can't run into stronger enemies without getting bumped away from them. In addition to his speed he can use a Rocketbarrel pack to move farther and a Peanut Popgun to shoot enemies. The peanuts that are fired can be eaten without issue. If Diddy really wants to be serious, he can fire his Peanut Popguns while taking it to the skies via Rocketbarrel Pack.
* A barrel showed up one day in the Pantheon bearing the words "DK" in bright red. Some deities figured that Donkey Kong would be able to determine what was in the barrel after hearing some noises come from it. Sure enough, Donkey Kong arrived onto the scene, picked up the barrel, and after throwing it, a chimpanzee with a red shirt and red cap emerged from the barrel. Donkey Kong was relieved to know that his buddy Diddy made it to the Pantheon without serious issues, even if being stuck in a barrel for a long time was rough.
* He has been a participant of the Smash tournament since the third iteration, bringing his Peanut Popguns with him alongside some banana peels to trip up opponents. Plenty has happened during these times, such as striking up an alliance with Fox (their first meeting together had them fighting [[Pantheon/ElementalPairings Rayquaza]]) and Falco in order to save Donkey Kong before eventually joining with other Nintendo characters to fight Tabuu. Diddy also got involved in the war against Galeem & Dharkon, learning that not only was his Rocketbarrel Pack not fast enough to outrun Galeem's ultimate attack, but that Galeem turned Diddy & DK's Kong friends (and some of their Animals Buddies) into Spirits as well.
* Kidnappings are something that he's very familar with, especially since he got stuck inside a barrel to start with. When DK got kidnapped by K. Rool, Diddy and Dixie worked together to save DK. In addition to DK getting kidnapped again sometime later, Diddy got kidnapped by K. Rool, prompting Dixie and her friend Kiddy Kong to save the two. With kidnappings in the Pantheon being a relatively frequent occurance, he works together alongside the other Kongs to thwart them, provided that he or his allies don't get kidnapped first.
* He and DK visit the House of Pantheon/{{Music}} as among the recreational activities in their down time to perform alongside monkey musician Amigo. However, he did notice that Amigo wasn't all that eager to be performing with a heavy metal instrument, so he decided to do something else instead; [[https://youtu.be/R9-g7zRpayw?t=32s sing.]] Amigo was quite pleasantly surprised at this and is eager to perform with them again, maybe serving as a background instrument with a duet between Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong.
* [=AiAi=] came across Diddy one day eating some bananas and decided to join him. During a chat between them, Diddy learned of the various "Monkey Ball" activities that [=AiAi=] does and was curious about them. After partaking in some of these activities alongside [=AiAi=], Diddy found the activities to be interesting, though some of them were a bit too much for him to handle (with how both Monkey Golf and Monkey Baseball work being a bit ridiculous not just for Diddy, but a few others as well). It hasn't really impacted Diddy and [=AiAi's=] friendship in any way and they still do some Monkey Ball competitions with each other (with a couple other Kongs such as Dixie joining in sometimes).
* Diddy learned that before he joined DK, there was another monkey that hanged around with DK; that monkey being Donkey Kong Jr. At first, Diddy and DK Jr. weren't quite friendly with each other, but warmed up to each other as they got to know each other better. If the two aren't fighting against the Kongs' primary arch-enemies, then Diddy and DK Jr. engage in a bit of friendly competition to determine who gets to partake in adventure or recreational activities with DK. There have been some instances of DK Jr. getting in tennis matches with Diddy as a result.
* Before taking part in recreational activities with DK, Diddy had his own racing adventure. Conker and Banjo without Kazooie were among those who joined Diddy in the races. Banjo decided to get Diddy to meet up with Conker against as it's been a while and the chimp was surprised to learn that the Conker he was seeing was completely different from the Conker that joined him in beating Wizpig. Banjo explained that Conker became changed drastically and that he's trying to at least, not make him crazy behind the wheel. Conkey was surprised to see Diddy as well and even with the change in the squirrel's attitude, still saw him as a friend. Diddy is still on good terms with Conker and is thankful that Banjo is keeping an eye on the squirrel since Diddy is very busy with other matters for him to hang out with his racing buddies more often.
** In addition to his own kart-racing endeavor with Banjo and Conker, Diddy is generally familiar with racing as a result of kart-racing with Mario and his friends. There was another racing competition that the Kong Krew partook in that involved using drums to rocket across different tracks. Deities outside of the Kong Krew and K. Rool who have attempted it found it to be very unorthodox even if comparison to other strange racing competitions.
* While there are a few other primates for Diddy to hang around with, there are a small number of such that Diddy has to be careful around. Mojo Jojo, being an insane monkey with aspirations of taking over the world, is someone whom Diddy is very wary of, especially since Mojo Jojo is more than capable of being manipulative in order to achieve his goals. Koba's homicidal behavior is even worse in that regard and Diddy is more than frightened of him and seeing him in get into a fight with someone.
** Dr. Zaius is a monkey that dislikes the Kong Krew quite a bit. Zaius is aware of the Kong Krew having capabilities better than that of normal primates (especially with Diddy's agility and weaponry), but feels their potential is being wasted on frivolous free-time activities instead of proving their superiority towards humans. Diddy and the other Kongs really don't share Zaius' opinion of humans, likely because of said free-time activities.
* When he first heard about King Kong, Diddy thought that the giant gorilla was a long-lost member of the Kong Krew. Upon seeing King Kong, Diddy was amazed at how large it was and quickly learned afterwards that King Kong tends to himself and isn't really related to the Kongs in any way. Not that it prevents Diddy and the other Kongs from maintaining a good-enough friendship with King Kong.
* There are a few who aren't amused in the slightest about Diddy using peanuts as ammo, especially coming from those who are allergic to peanuts. Pit has apparently claimed that getting pelted with peanuts isn't that bad, but then again, this is the same guy who has claimed that "Floor Ice Cream gives you health" previously.

* Pities: [[Pantheon/{{Upbringing}} Hilda, Leona Heidern]], [[Pantheon/{{Offsprings}} The Baudelaire Siblings]], anyone else who has lost an eye or is blind
* The House of Knowledge has its fair share of stories, both known and unknown. Some are varied with numerous characters and some are with a simple premise. One of the stories was about a kid who would be a local storyteller on his village and a caretaker to his mother. After encountering a mysterious group of Sisters, he would need to find his grandfather's armor to protect himself. On the way, he would meet two guardians, a Beetle and a Monkey, who he has bonded throughout his journey and on the way saw his true origins, the reason for him being hunted down and his one missing eye. He would find the true cause of it, his late grandfather and his aunts, which are the Sisters and their Moon Kingdom, wanting to bring him to their newfound godly life. Ultimately, he would find peace [[spoiler:through ThePowerOfLove]] but as he says it, [[BittersweetEnding his ending could have been far better than what he got]].
** After the story was shared, a young man with an eyepatch and a shamisen wandered into part of the Narrative House and told a story for anyone to hear. Sometimes, he talked about his father Hanzo's exploits against the Moon King. Other times, he spoke of his own perilous quest to defeat the same guy with three relics. Regardless, many people regardless of age take a great liking to his brand of storytelling, accompanied by music from his shamisen and a collection of origami figurines that come to life when he plays. When the guardians found the young man, they realized it was the person from the story they have told, the kid hero Kubo as they call him. This welcoming storyteller was humble on him joining to the Pantheon ranks.
* The prospect of a unified dimension where different characters of varying places is an interesting idea for him. At first he thought it would be like the Moon Kingdom and their mindset against humans, but the first step he took into the Pantheon was greeted with kindness. Sure there are still evil deities here and there but for the most part, almost everyone he has met are either a hero of their own story or a good guy similar to him. This made him much happier as his story is now well known and wishes to share it to the other children of the Pantheon, as a way to make their lives better like his. It also allowed him to discover new houses such as the House of Narrative, his most visited place, the House of Life and Death and so much more, with the exception of the House of Villains and Vengeance.
** There is one problem when it comes to having a large universe of different characters: it can bring confusion especially when it comes to similar names. It is a normal thing to deal with for experienced deities but for Kubo it took some time to get used to this situation, such as when he heard someone call Monkey's name, thinking she came back from the dead. Though he would be somewhat disappointed that there was another character named Monkey who was very different from the Monkey he knew, from his voice to even his knowledge from Kung Fu. Though seeing a friendly opportunity, this Monkey introduced the Furious Five to him and was astounded on their achievements, especially when [[WesternAnimation/KungFuPanda3 there was a mention of the Spirit World]]. This also happened when it came to his father Hanzo, or so it would be until he saw the archer Hanzo but it was not his father, instead it was Hanzo Shimada. He apologized but the two realized their cultures, especially with the sight of the shamisen and welcomed him.
* Storytelling isn't easy as while making up plots can sound simple, may take time to fully make sense, especially on endings, where he has problems making a decent ending on his stories told to his mother. This is further reflected on his name, "Kubo" refers to a dent, or an empty space, that while supposedly full, is actually lacking for some reason. As a result, many of his stories have missing endings and admits making one is difficult. And while his journey did end somewhat well, he still wanted it to be much more happier, such as with the case of his grandfather. That won't stop him from being a welcoming storyteller and a kind child hero to everyone.
** He is often the center of attention when it comes to numerous tales and visits the House of Narrative almost everyday. Some say that the House of Narrative has fondness for him and gave him a spot as one of the few storytellers, others would say it was his own decision to tell a story every once in a while. Its for this reason why many children and those interested in what he has to say often enjoy his company, almost like a bard but for those with a knack for tales. The Storyteller loves him for this, as the kid's love for stories is similar to his, and proof that some kids just love a good story in any time. He still has more stories to tell than him but the kid appreciates his lessons.
* When he isn't telling stories, he comes over to the Pantheon/DeathAndPostmortem House to give the souls of his parents a visit as well as soothe whoever visits the place with his music. He says it is in honor and respect to greet them whenever he has the chance to, as without them he wouldn't be able to learn the lessons he gained on his journey [[spoiler:and wished that they could have lived near the ending]]. If the need arises, however, they can return to his aid as Monkey and Beetle. One would ask why [[spoiler:his parents become Monkey and Beetle]] but he says it is more complicated than that and has to do with curses which he is willing to share.
* Being an orphan is not an easy life, especially living with no father to boot. For him though, he remains very happy and content with his life, as his humble attitude earned much of respect for many deities, save for some who do not follow the same life as his. Many wonder how long this will last but considering the journey he has experienced, it is safe to say that he will remain humble and content for the rest of his life knowing [[spoiler:his parents may rest and his grandfather's change of heart]]. Even with such affirmation, he knows the world is more than whatever revolves around him and will do whatever it takes to fight for the good of not only his village but even those in danger.
** He is very welcome to meet similar orphans, hoping to connect to them in a personal level and convince some to remain humble in life. It is for this reason that being friends with Simba was pretty quick. The latter knows how it is to lose your parents from the most unfortunate scenarios and surprisingly, encounters with them outside of the afterlife. He asked if Kubo was suit to be a king, but the child declined, stating he is fine with where he lives and the village he takes care of. To him, being a king is unnecessary but wishes Simba the best of luck.
** More orphans heard his story and were glad to meet him, some which were pitied by the child for their unfortunate upbringing. Some however, are able to continue their resolve and continue living despite the issues surrounding their pasts, and such was his reaction upon meeting Tetsuo Tsurugi who, despite his desperation for yearned love for his parents and fear of being alone, is something both he and Kubo have experienced, though most orphans are unable to survive through such and are traumatized in the end. This was the case when he met Hilda, the Leona Heidarn and the Baudelaire Siblings, orphans who had dealt more issues than what they had expected in their parentless lives. Even with his music and sense of good stories, it wasn't enough to ease their pain, especially the latter, [[spoiler:[[EarnYourHappyEnding though things may change following Beatrice finally contacting the duo]]]] which made Kubo delighted to hear about.
** He did make a surprising discovery of a group of orphans who are admittedly fans of his power, so much that they follow him everywhere he goes all for the beautiful sight of music and art combined. Lead by the Orphan Quintet and other orphans such as Oliver Twist, Madeline, and another Annie, they march around the Pantheon as a sign of happiness to all children and are eager to hear any story Kubo has in mind, not to mention some of them may help him in his desire to create a happy ending in some of his tales.
* The status of being a lone child, while able to adapt and even be happy about it, also brought with it unimaginable horrors, some that are terrifying to children in general. First contact was with the Slender Man, who Kubo desperately tried to fend off, and was nearly captured until intervention from the other high-ranking gods managed to get him out. The 456 Ambassador however joined in as well attempting to kidnap him, but he was able to fare much better compared to the Slender Man, able to defeat him with ease. The same cannot be said following Balanar's entrance and moreso Pennywise, who barged into his temple, one to haunt him in the night and [[ChildEater the other to simply eat him]]. That was when he decided to call for help so that he does not have to deal with these threats alone.
* One of the very few "special" kids, in a sense that he has otherworldly powers even for such a young age. For all his fragility is made up for his affinity with magic, especially on origami, via the instrumental shamisen he carries with him. He uses the shamisen as a controller for the origami to be used in a variety of ways, from weaponizing them to even flight and escape. It is a niche skill and one he excels at confidently so. Due to the Pantheon's freedom of choice, he is able to use the shamisen more often, not just for combat purposes but for showcasing the origami at its fullest beauty.
** The aforementioned skills with music also helps, as it is the source of all his paper powers, making him an adept musician and a bard. This, alongside his intention to fight for good brought attention to both the Symphogears and the Smile Pretty Cures, further helped by the fact that he is of Japanese origin much like all the members. The difference though is the extent of their musical powers, as Kubo's powers focuses on paper, the Symphogears are based on their own techs and the Pretty Cures is pure magic.
* It sucks to have a missing eye at birth, but it is worsened if the other eye is also the object of search. This was his thought when he encountered the Moon King, who wanted his other eye to give him a spot into the Moon Kingdom, as he has a disdain for humanity in general and Kubo's humanity was the only thing from giving him that opportunity. But with courage and ThePowerOfLove, he saved his own eye and life, [[spoiler:at the cost of his parents' own]].
** This lead him to being sympathetic towards others who have been blind or those with eyes even removed like his, regardless of alignment. He believes everyone should at least have good vision in life, both in a literal and a metaphorical mindset and no one should suffer having one or both eyes gone. He believes this will help people clearly see their wrongs, much like the fate of his grandfather.
* Other warriors from different paths have noticed Kubo's skills on paper combat and his affinity with music, citing him to be an endearing warrior even though he has said he only does this on self-defense. Among those who took a liking to him was Samurai Jack, appreciated the young storyteller's presence as the two's similar upbringing as a samurai's child and his conflicts with godlike beings brought them together. His relationship with Ashi also helps as she is proof that there is something good that can be redeemed in the darkness.
** Unfortunately this lead to encounters with Jack's archnemesis, Aku, who despises his presence. For being a child, he considers him to be Jack's child equal and considers him foolish for all the same reasons he hates Jack. Then when he heard of how he fiercely opposed the Moon Kingdom and his path to godhood, he despised him even more and has told the rest of the Daughters of Aku to hunt him down, to give the child a lesson when it comes to facing the dangers of evil.
** Another warrior also caught Kubo's attention and awe, seeing that it was Link, the legendary hero of Hyrule. Considering the numerous incarnations of him, various skills, a large arsenal of weapons, and so much heroic tales about him, he speaks of how he is enthralled at his tales, moreso as his combat style of similar to that of his father. The latter gave him a pat to the head to appreciate his awe on him as well as introduce him to the kingdom of Hyrule.
* Outside of origami combat, there is an interesting part of Kubo differentiates him from other children. For one, he is of godly descent, a child of the Moon Goddess, meaning he has relations to the moon. This brought itself problems, as while he was a godly descendant, he was a regular mortal, thus resulting to his left eye taken out by his grandfather and the relentless search to remove his humanity to join their 'heaven' as opposed to the 'hell' that is humanity, starting by being hunted by his loyal Sisters. While he may be a demigod by Pantheon standards, he wishes not to be called a god due to these events, and moreso relate to anything to the Moon, especially the evil ones.
** While not related to the moon at all, he has taken precaution when it comes to Lord Voldemort, he reminds him of his grandfather from his inability to comprehend certain values, to his possession of dark magic. His crimes in Hogwarts has also gone unnoticed and only further solidified his opposition on him. There are hints that he also opposes him [[Creator/RalphFiennes in another way]].
** Remember when having similar names can be a problem? Well that also counts for the people named 'Raiden', as his grandfather was also named Raiden, the mastermind behind his hardships. This also meant anyone named such has been taken with alertness. [[Pantheon/{{Emotion}} One Raiden in particular]] brought his attention on him and while he may not be related to the moon in anyway, the rumors of [[VideoGame/MortalKombatX a Dark Raiden]] [[spoiler:and his loss of powers, becoming a mortal once]] made him even more cautious.
** At one point, he even took a suspicious gander at Magikarp, wary at its transformation being akin to a dragon that disturbingly looks like the same dragon used by his grandfather during the final battle. This only worsened with the Red Gyarados it shares the same temple with, which looks much bigger and the evolution to Magikarp. This lead to him avoiding their temple, though many people have told him the Pokemon mean no harm compared to his relative.
** It wasn't the end for all moon-related issues, as his deity links brought him under the eyes of Chang'e, who was also a human but due to unfortunate circumstance, ended up becoming the sole person to the moon, well according to the legends. When he did meet her however, she was mute and couldn't speak, though he was surprised how despite being a goddess of the moon, she is radically different from the gods in the Moon Kingdom. And she wasn't the only moon goddess. In fact, other maidens, Kaguya, Eirin and Reisen all approached Kubo with interest, specifically on how he is a human with the bloodline from the moon goddess of his world. Despite reasoning why his humanity was more important than his potential of being an actual god, the maidens did not care and were simply just interested on his links to the moon, without a single care of his humanity, giving him flashbacks of his grandfather's indifference towards humans in general.
** The result of such conversation lead him to become cautious to anyone related to the moon, regardless of alignment. Some consider it too much but others are able to understand why he oppose them, as the flashbacks and memories are something he has not grown accustomed to. He is trying but it is little progress. It is also why attempts by Mirana and Magnolia Arc were not so successful in reconsidering his thoughts. Because the last thing Kubo wants is someone who wants to drag him back to the same scenario again.
** It got worse following Diana's visit to him, who sought to convince him to rejoin the moon, as well as her interest of the Moon Kingdom. For a moon extremist, this did not bode well for him as she reminds him of the Sisters, [[spoiler:his aunts convinced about the moon]]. Coupled with her insanity and ruthlessness, her presence has made his day already worse.
** Not all events were doom and gloom however, as he found that even all those moon-based deities, some are willing to help him more than others, proven by the magical girl representative of the moon herself, Sailor Moon. The first sight between the two can be described as a change of heart for the little boy, seeing that her presence has convinced him that some people related to the moon aren't morally questionable people nor are they human hating gods. After talking to her on her experience with it, he can safely say that his perspective on the moon has changed for the better.
** It got much better when Percy Jackson stepped in, which introduced him a new world filled with the children of the gods of Olympus, all who are demigods and are of godly descent just like him. Now there are questions as to what specific Moon Goddess was Kubo's ancestry from but as far as he can remember, he doesn't remember the name and only remembers the parents who raised him. Percy thinks there may be another god responsible for this and some of his friends have theorized the idea of one of the gods of Olympus (specifically that of the Moon) interfered with his birth. He dismissed those thoughts.
** After meeting with different gods of varying alignments and interests, he found someone who is nearly similar to his life both a mortal and of celestial origin: Django. While he may be related more on the Sun, [[spoiler:he does have connections to the moon as well]]. The difference is their breeds, Django is a half-human/[[spoiler:vampire]] whereas Kubo is related to a goddess. Though he has sympathy for his brother who has spoken about moonlight's two sides.
* He has declared an opposition to all things evil as well as its perpetrators and is such one of the daring few to oppose Melkor, which is an insult to the dark lord as a child wishes to oppose him. When he saw his relations to godhood and his origami powers, he only laughed that a mere child would go up against him, but Kubo has experience when it comes to vanquishing evil and will continue his steadfast courage even at the worst Melkor has to offer with the power of music, origami and [[ThePowerOfLove love]].
* ''"Pay careful attention to everything you see and hear no matter how unusual it may seem. But please be warned: if you fidget; if you look away; if you forget ANY part of what I tell you, even for an instant, then our hero will surely perish."''

Kung Lao was trained alongside fellow monk and chosen one Liu Kang, which greatly impacted Kung Lao personally as he was a very proud warrior who happens to also want to live up to the name he was given. The main difference he has over his comrade is his ever reliable razor-sharped hat, a rather unorthodox weapon for a monk but an effective one nonetheless. Throwing it has advantages with functions like straight cut, boomerang effect, and even more and that's what personally got him into the pantheon.
* While he has felt jealousy over Liu Kang, that never really made him doubt his skills and the two have fought together on several occassions, becoming inseperable even if he does resent the idea of being on Liu Kang's shadow. But considering there are dangerous forces out there trying to destroy Earthrealm, he will stop at nothing until they are all dealt with.
* James Bond is rather impressed with his hat, given the fact that Bond reminds him of [[Film/{{Goldfinger}} Oddjob, a notorious criminal]]. However, Kung Lao is a good guy, earning Bond's respect.
* If anything, don't mention to him the way he's portrayed as an overzealous bitter in ''[[VideoGame/MortalKombatShaolinMonks Shaolin Monks]]''. Value your life if you don't do so.
* After discovering that Raiden's actions were what caused him alongside with Kitana, Kurtis Stryker, Smoke and Sub-Zero to be enslaved by Quan Chi, he alongside with the aforementioned, severed his ties with him. Unlike the others, he doesn't want to collaborate with Rachel Alucard… and especially Thrall but he gave in after a while and decided to let his ego not get in the way. Once Kronika made her entrance and Raiden finally realized the error of his ways, Kung Lao was happy to work once more with the Thunder God, having seen with his own eyes how far his revenant had fallen. And the prospect of being a god doesn't really bother him but some believe he is bluffing. Liu Kang on the hand actually is considering having [[spoiler:Kung Lao be his chosen one after he became the Keeper of Time, starting with his ancestor the Great Kung Lao first. His present counterpart has yet to find out about this development]].
* His hat doesn't only allow Kung Lao to cut down his enemies, he also has the ability to be pseudo-magician and summon rabbits from it. Not all of them are friendly though, he has been able to summon the Killer Rabbit of Caerbannog from his hat, which could end badly for his foes. Incidentally, the Killer Rabbit is able to tolerate Kung Lao as long as he provides him with "food" to entertain himself with (and isn't packing Holy Hand Grenades).
* One time, Kung Lao had his body taken over by [[Pantheon/{{Gaming}} Mario and Cappy]], who then proceeded to [[CurbStompBattle beat the ever living snot]] out of [[https://youtu.be/GZrKleDqE2E&feature=youtu.be Sub-Zero.]] After that incident, all three parties decided to not bring it up outside of Gaming get-togethers.
* Don't insult his hat.

* May was once a normal Japanese girl living in her homeland unaware of the ''horrible'' fate awaiting her country at the hands of Justice. [[spoiler: With the entire country left in ruins after her assault, the remaining Japanese citizens were sent into camps meant to keep them imprisoned under threat of death.]] Fortunately for May, a Jellyfish Pirate by the name of Johnny found her and rescued the girl raising her as a member of the Jellyfish crew. Now, she enjoys sailing the seas, finding new friends, and enjoying the new life out in the deep oceans of the world with her friends and crewmates.
* As a fighter in the Pantheon, she wields a big freaking anchor. This, combined with super-strength, she's a force to be reckoned with along with [[Main/AssistCharacter the dolphins]] she rides on sometimes.
* Naturally, she quickly made friends with Ecco while also being very afraid of Orca as the two dolphins were on complete opposites of being cute and deadly animals.
* She dislikes bald people, due to a freak out she had once with Faust ''Bald''head in her world not that she hates them as [[Pantheon/PersonalAppearance Xavier found out from her thoughts]].
* Gets well along very with Dizzy, since she forms part of the May Ship alongside the human-Gear. This is surprising to some considering [[spoiler: it was because of the Gear Justice that she lost her entire home and Japanese civilization]].
* Many were afraid of hitting on May considering how she [[OlderThanTheyLook She hasn't aged like a 22-year-old woman usually does, but she doesn't find it strange]]. She even suggests that she's gained some form of kid-like immortality like [[Pantheon/LifeAndVitality Peter Pan]].
* [[Pantheon/{{Advertising}} Ash Ketchum]] got slightly confused with her since she had the same name as a friend of his. May doesn't mind and is willing to let him be an honorary member of the Jellyfish Pirates.
* Was sad to hear that the leader of the Jellyfish Pirates, and her love interest, Johnny hasn't yet ascended into the Pantheon. She is currently trying to find a spot for him and hopes that if he becomes a playable character in ''Xrd'' in the future would boost his chances of ascension.
* Luffy was amazed by the stories May shared about sailing the waters with her crew, and while they haven't found any real treasure they both enjoyed having mighty crews and having fun with their life as pirates.
** Jack found the girl to be rather odd considering how she is able to make friends with dolphins so easily while he can't even deal with crabs that well. Still, the normally drunk pirate hoped May would grow into a legendary pirate like himself who [[Main/LovableRogue took down a royal navy ship by himself]] and May couldn't help but laugh at Jack's ego while he didn't find anything he said funny.
* May was irritated by Risky Boots who considered the pirate just as troublesome as the [[Pantheon/SocialAndRecreationalWork Half-Genie Hero]] [[Pantheon/{{Dance}} Shantae]], and vowed to sink both May and her crew into the bottom of the sea. Not that her [[{{Mooks}} Tinkerbots]] could accomplish such a threat as they were quickly broken into pierces by May and her giant anchor.
* Kaptain K.Rool also made an enemy out of May for trying to steal her dolphins in order to make them into slaves for his Kremlin Krew to defeat his other enemy Donkey Kong. She knew the pirate persona of King. K Rool was only pretending to be a plunderer of the seas and vowed to keep him away from her fishy friends.
* Another evil pirate captain took issue with the girl, and like Risky Boots, Captain Hook wasn't amused some "child" wanted to be in the adult world of pirates. He wanted her to walk the plank on the ship until Hook thought he heard the sounds of a loud ticking followed by [[Main/NeverSmileAtACrocodile the only sea creature he fears being a crocodile]] scaring him off. It was actually Peter Pan messing with him with a clock and a good impression of the beast who took Hook's own hand.

* Ambiguous Relationship: '''[[Pantheon/{{Sports}} Judah Ben-Hur]]'''
* Messala is a Roman militaryman who is childhood friends with the Judean prince Ben-Hur. Feeling slighted after Ben-Hur refused to cooperate with the empire, Messala let him be accused of attempted murder in order to get back at him. He also held his mother and sister captive. Years later, Ben-Hur came back to enact his revenge, and they had a showdown in the form of a chariot race. Messala used a chariot with spikes on its wheels to weed out the competition (yep, totally legal), but against Ben-Hur it backfired, resulting in Messala getting thrown off and trampled, dying shortly after. Since he's considered to have codified the usage of SpikedWheels, he was awarded a place in the Pantheon under that trope at around the same time that Ben-Hur ascended for ChariotRace.
* When Ben-Hur walked into his temple, told him he forgave him and that he should repent for his actions and see the Roman Empire for the evil it was, Messala hesitated a little before scoffing and replying that what he still means what he told him the last time they'd spoken: "The race is not over." Ben-Hur doesn't want to give up on him, though he's accepted that chariot racing is the only language the two can speak right now.
* The Messala in the Pantheon is primarily the '59 version, but he's been made aware of his other selves' fates; one survived the chariot race to become crippled for life and impoverished (he's actually rather happy that this didn't happen to him or it might have impacted his position in the Pantheon), another managed to mend his bond with Ben-Hur. Interestingly, his original self never used the SpikedWheels he's known for, nor did he cheat in any way. It was ''Ben-Hur himself'' who cheated to win. This has served as ammo for Messala to taunt Ben-Hur about getting whitewashed.
** As for the claims that he is actually in love with Ben-Hur, all he has to say is that, whether it's true or not, it's no one's business. Although if these rumors are true, it would mean that his actions were at least in part those of a scorned lover, which gets him Hera's sympathy.
* Messala betrayed Ben-Hur, his childhood friend, out of pettiness from Ben-Hur not following his wishes, as well as a desire for power that he believed he'd get if everyone could see how willing he was to send his friend to prison. This blatant dismissal of the value of friendship means that most of the House of Friendship holds him in contempt, except of course for Penelope Mouse, who understands why ambition would be more important than mere friendship.
* The purpose of SpikedWheels is precisely to wreck the opponent's vehicles and possibly the opponents themselves, so Messala is much accursed by the House of Travel for being the trope's god, especially the deities of wheeled vehicles and who participate in races. The House of Sports also dislikes him for the blatant cheating and UnnecessaryRoughness that never would've been allowed in a real chariot race. Messala argued back that it wasn't considered cheating in his universe, chariot racing is a bloody, high-risk sport by definition and those who fell to his wheels only had their own weakness and lack of preparation to blame. At least the more unscrupulous deities dig his style, like Bowser, who's wondering why he's never thought of putting spikes on the wheels of his kart.
** Whenever there's a race on the Pantheon's designated racing course where [[WackyRacing anything goes]], the Rainbow Road, Messala will be there, and so will Ben-Hur. On top of his SpikedWheels, Messala has taken a liking to using Blue Shells, which makes him even more hated.
* Upon hearing that the father of the Roman Empire, Julius Caesar, was in the Pantheon, he quickly put himself at his service. Caesar is rather in doubt of the integrity of a man who betrayed his friend for the sake of power, though Messala insists it was all for the glory of empire and emperor. Plus, after hearing Messala say things like "the emperor is god on Earth", he has to admit he must be enthusiastically loyal at least to ''him'' specifically, so he's accepted him into his ranks. He's just not one of his favorites.
** His loyalty also extends to Caligula and Nero, but in their case it's more because he feels he has to rather than genuine feeling. Messala [[DeliberateValuesDissonance doesn't like the notion of being ordered around by a female emperor]] and he can tell that Caligula is completely off his gourd and unreasonable. But, well, they're still Roman emperors, real gods on Earth, and he has to do his duty as a Tribune. And he can always turn to Caesar for the last word in case the other two are too outrageous.
* Given that he's aligned with the Roman Empire, Asterix and Obelix don't like him much at all, but they're willing not to not make sport of punching him into the air out of respect for Ben-Hur. Just as long as Messala doesn't act like a conquering Roman general.
* Like all ancient Romans, he is pretty chummy with Ares when he's in Mars mode and routinely invokes his name for luck. He still scoffs at the power of the Abrahamic god that Ben-Hur's people worship even after he was told He was very much present in the Pantheon, claimng no god was greater than the emperor. YHVH wasn't amused one bit at this blasphemy.
* He and Tywin Lannister have mutual admiration for each other because of their military prowess, ruthlessness and sense of opportunity.

* Respects: [[Pantheon/TacticsAndStrategies Kevin McCallister]]
* Opposed by: The House of Pantheon/{{Slaughter}}
* Opposes: ''The House of Pantheon/{{Thieves}}''
* Keeping your home tidy and clean is tough work. Dirt, hair, dust, and other contaminants builds up quickly. And as if that wasn't bad enough there's always the looming threat of burglary. Not only are these thugs trying to steal valuables but they're also leaving their dirty footprints all over the house. That's both amateurish and rude. What is a person to do in these trying times? Introducing Roombo, the future of cleanliness and house defense. Armed with a strong vacuum and the ability to hack into all sorts of appliances, Roombo will ensure the safety of the owner's belongings. Not even corpses are a much for him as the little guy can turn the bad guys into red chunks for ease of cleanliness. Order one today!
* Roombo came into the Pantheon when someone brought him along thinking he was just a regular vacuum robot. Starting out, he was just that. Then a bunch of bad guys happened to bust into the premises and Roombo immediately got to work. The owner, however, came back early due to forgetting something and bore witness to Roombo diligently cleaning up all the ludicrous amounts of blood left behind by what remained of the intruders. For his act of bravery, after he was finished cleaning he was brought to the Court of Gods to be evaluated for a divine title. The discussion was quick as they immediately found the perfect trope of ViciousVac. And so, the little roomba that could continues his services in the Pantheon.
* If the name and title of his first game wasn't a dead giveaway he's clearly a spoof of John Rambo, but as a roomba. Despite the ridiculousness of it, the shell-shocked veteran actually befriended the robot rather quickly. In the times that Rambo is forced into a violent situation it is said that Roombo may not be too far behind and there may not even be a speck of dirt left when the dust settles.
* Usually prefers more high-tech places of residence, mainly so he can work much more effectively. Not that he's completely defenseless without them, but they're the crux of his work. That said, the threshold of the home being "high-tech" is actually quite low: Seemingly regular outlets, doors, windows, ceiling fans, refrigerators, and fireplaces are all effective appliances he can utilize. The Pantheon, however, presents much more for Roombo to utilize making him far more dangerous to any ski masked man or woman treading on the wrong home at the wrong time.
* While Roombo is more often see cleaning households he sometimes accompanies the Aerospace Sanitation Janitors and their heralds during their work hours. Due to their occupation taking them into places where the dust has already been settled Roombo doesn't much of any action when doing so and is really there for extra manpower. He doesn't mind though, he's just happy to clean. They love cleaning so much that they, unlike the Janitor, doesn't mind doing so even in the House of Pantheon/{{Slaughter}}. Roombo actually empowers himself by cleaning blood, in fact. The resident gods there don't appreciate him doing that though the times he comes there is very rare.
* The existence of a House dedicated to Thieves was enough to make Roombo's circuits burn out in anger. It was the burglars that drew first blood by stepping into his place of residence, after all. This is of course ignoring the fact that very few of the gods there have any reason to cross paths of Roombo, the chance of them doing so being closer to zero, and a bunch of them being more than your typical balaclava-wearing thug in black, but Roombo doesn't care. Dirt is dirt and must be cleaned all the same.
* As someone willing to defend the house he has a lot of respect for Kevin [=McCallister=] and Susy Hendrix for having done the same. Roombo has gone on to assist the latter in any other instances of coming face-to-face with other home invaders while the he sees the former as a source of inspiration in setting up traps. Might be because of the lack of hands thing. He can hack into things, has a vacuum, and can apparently hold things, but that's not quite the same.
** When it comes to home invaders, Roombo finds Paul and Peter to be among the worst of their lot. Mainly for their time-rewinding remote, a trump card of theirs in case if their victims somehow got the upper hand against them. The brothers disregarded Roombo, however, thinking of him as a nuisance and were more preoccupied with tormenting the people he was guarding. Their arrogance would prove costly as he ended up hacking the remote on their person and it ended up on his possession. They eventually got the remote back but circumstances forced them to retreat for now.
* While they're capers of more fancier establishments than just everyday homes Roombo isn't any less of a fan of the Bonanza Bros. The sentiment is shared when they unexpectedly encountered the killer roomba during one of their heists. Taking place in a rather lavish manse full of armed guards, Roombo was allow to roam the place as he pleased once again. When he saw one of the brothers, Robo, use a door to knock out a guard he hid underneath a cabinet he hacked into that same door and used it against him, knocking him out cold. Roombo then rammed into Mobo and ended up the same. The guards were quick to apprehend the two brothers and send them off to the big house, though not before quickly preventing Roombo from finishing the job. Thanks to a contact they ended up breaking out the next day and will be more careful of seemingly normal appliances the next time around.
* He crossed paths with some of the Tactical Dolls while they happened to stay at an apartment that Roombo was working at. In that specific group was Tactical Doll [=G36=] and one of her teammates made a quip about her getting into a fight with a roomba again. While she wasn't one for Roombo trying to stick by her those couple of nights she did sort of warm-up to him. Still, even as a combat android she had to admit its drive to defend its owner's household by any means necessary is disturbing.
* Vacuums and their use against poltergeists go way back, and [[Pantheon/{{Unpopularity}} Luigi]] is no stranger to using [[Pantheon/{{Language}} Professor E. Gadd's]] Poltergust series of vacuums to suck up ghosts. It doesn't sound like much but many a ghost, and even King Boo himself, have been taken down by the Green Thunder thanks to said equipment. While Roombo isn't lacking as a vacuum, he had to admit he hasn't really tackled ghosts like he has. He has expressed desire to upgrade himself to combat intruders that just so happen to be incorporeal for some reason.
* Upon entering the Axiom, WALL-E ended up meeting a cleaner bot there named M-O. M-O, obsessed with cleaning, couldn't stand all the foreign contaminants WALL-E left behind and ended up chasing him across the entire ship just to properly clean him come hell or high water. After he finally caught him (incidentally saving him and EVE in the process) they soon become friends thereafter. Having heard of this and what WALL-E did on the Axiom Roombo decided that WALL-E is cool. He, at least, isn't plagued by an obsession revolving around being tidy so that probably made it even easier for Roombo to accept him and is willing to help him when in trouble. While appreciating the offer, he managed to communicate to him that he has EVE to help him on his travels (though is really more fearful by what the robot is capable of), which Roombo accepted.
** Hat Kid owns a cleaner robot of her known named Rumbi, and he lives with her on the spaceship and is a dear pal of hers. Roombo, naturally, is quite touched though he's also peeved that Hat Kid had people break into her ship before and made it clear she can request his services. As usual, Hat Kid declined the offer too.
* While it's more so literal invasions, Roombo is sympathetic to the Plants' cause in the fight against Dr. Zomboss and his zombie goons. In the times Roombo is available to help out the Plants he's moreso the last line of defense considering they all are able to hold the fort down well on their own though there have been points where what would of been a zombie victory has been snatched from their grasp thanks to said bot.

* Before the Bladebreakers could ascend to represent BattleTops, there was one obstacle they had to overcome; [[Pantheon/{{Science}} Dr. Wily]] petitioning for [[VideoGame/MegaMan3 Top Man]] to claim the trope instead, and was even present first by virtue of his creator already being a Pantheon deity, and because Top Man actually ''fights'' using tops. Of course, given who the contenders were, a straight-up battle wouldn't be fair (not only for the Bladebreakers as they're unarmored humans, but for ''Top Man'' as well due to what their Bit Beasts can do as well as the fact that he is outnumbered), and so it was decided that it would be the Court of the Gods who decide which is worthier.
** In the end, it was decided to give the title to the Bladebreakers since the very world they come from is ''obsessed'' with the sport of battling spinning tops, so if anyone was worthy of ascending for the trope, it's the many-times world champion team of said world. Dr. Wily has since sworn to get back at them for this stolen opportunity.
* It was a quite the culture shock when the Bladebreakers realized that the Pantheon ''does not'' have the same obsession with Beyblades as their own world, but their game has managed to become popular enough to garner interest and more players, though they're more casual since there're a lot more things to do than just extreme top spinning.
* Everybody has been warned to be very careful around beyblades. Even without the whole Bit Beast thing, [[MyLittlePanzer they're deceptively highly dangerous]]. After all, parts flying off or even ''one whole beyblade'' can cause serious injuries when sent flying off of the game arena.
* Given that their most recurring enemy was an evil Russian, they don't take too kindly to such people, such as Imran Zakhaev and Vladimir Makarov.
* The chefs in the House of Food just sighed as they added Takao to their "BigEater" list. It's just one more.
* Kai paints four tiger-like blue stripes on his cheeks every day. He refuses to explain why.
* Having used tops before in battle, they drew connections with Link and Ryusei Sakuta.
* In regards to similar voices:
** [[Creator/MotokoKumai Takao]] drew the attention of Syaoran Li and Spike. The latter took a casual interest in Beyblades, too, and would likely be able to take accidentally getting hit.
** [[Creator/AyaHisakawa For Rei]], there were Kero, Fate, Skuld, Retsu Unohana, [[Anime/MarvelAnimeXMen Storm]], Tohru Honda (because he sounds like one of her companions Yuki Sohma), and Yuri Tsukikage/Cure Moonlight.
*** [[Pantheon/{{Subjects}} Valerie Frizzle]] [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_DeSanto is reminded of]] one of her students, Carlos Ramon, whenever she and Rei cross paths.
** [[Creator/UraraTakano Kai]] drew the attention of [[Pantheon/LustfulBehavior Belarus]] (whom he doesn't find appreciable), [[Pantheon/BodilyForm Luffy]] (whom he finds bothersone and comparable to Takao), and [[Pantheon/{{Politicians}} the Mayor of Townsville]] (who can't stop but feel [[TheFaceless a weird]] [[MsFanservice sense of]] [[SexySecretary familiarity]], but can't understand why it's coming from a young boy). [[Pantheon/FantasticalBeasts Pikachu]] also avoids him for reasons pertaining to a "future" he doesn't want to go to.
** [[Creator/AiOrikasa For Max]], there were Ayra, [[Pantheon/LoveOther Miyuki-chan]] (who can't help but think of the Cheshire Cat), Dewey, Ryusei Date (who can't help but think of [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWars Mai Kobayashi]]), Jessica Rabbit, and Mega Man. Robocop is also reminded of [[Film/RoboCop2 a criminal kid he used to know]] [[spoiler:and stuck by in his dying moments]].
* Ash knows what it's like to have people coming after him for his {{Bond Creature|s}}, especially after the four managed to send Team Rocket blasting off with their Bit Beasts when the trio tried to go after them, thinking a bunch of tops must be easier than a Pikachu. Given that he finds it rather ridiculous, despite their power, Giovanni hasn't made them a priority.
** Speaking of Pokémon, thanks to their Bit Beasts, they drew attention from others like Rayquaza, Ho-oh, Blastoise, and Raikou.

* Opposed by: [[Pantheon/{{Tears}} Kenshiro]], [[Pantheon/MotivationsForEvil The Illusive Man]], [[Pantheon/ValuesAndEthics The God-Emperor of Mankind]]
* Enemies: With their overall aggressiveness, practically ''anyone'' that isn't an ally, regardless of whether it would make sense or not. At least until said enemies slaughter them enough...
* The Thraddash are quite the unusual spacefaring ProudWarriorRace, as they'd tell you themselves. They may have had longer than humans to thrive as a civilization, but compared to us, they hardly seem any more advanced than the next race of aliens, if not less. The Thraddash's misfortunes when it comes to development as a species are surprisingly self-inflicted, they may develop technology at a quick rate, but ingenuity is quickly wasted once enough dissent and chaos arises, where their MightMakesRight philosophy leads the Thraddash to prove ideological superiority in the only way they know: [[MutuallyAssuredDestruction Blowing up the other side into the Stone Age]], which causes their growth to regress each time they make advancements that enable much destruction in the first place. Their reign among their star system is due to becoming a Battle Thrall of the Ur-Quan Kzer-Za, who decided to interfere in their excessively aggressive culture to create a new Culture that was loyal to the Ur-Quan that could fly among the stars in their own starships.
* The Thraddash were originally part of the Ur-Quan Hierarchy of Battle Thralls brought into the Pantheon by the Kzer-Za, but the Thraddash decided that they wanted to impress their masters by launching an all-out assault on every part of the Pantheon simultaneously. This ambitious decision of the Thraddash led to the skies and cosmos of the Pantheon being lit up by trails of fire and Thraddash Torches zooming about trying to shoot down everything in their way. This overwhelming attack on the Pantheon would finish with zero casualties... [[EpicFail ...on the non-Thraddash side.]] While several structures were damaged or destroyed, and many were harmed or injured, the deities of the Pantheon took action to defend themselves and [[CurbStompBattle destroyed their ships and crew over and over again]]. Instead of surrendering, a majority of the Thraddash decided that the various Grand United Alliances in the Pantheon on top of all the mighty defenders obliterating them repeatedly were to become their new "teachers", and so the attack stopped due to many Thraddash deciding to defect from the Ur-Quan Kzer-Za in order to learn from the other deities that they previously tried to attack. The Kzer-Za were berserk seeing their Thraddash defect, but by the time they retaliated, much of the Thraddash had enlisted themselves within their enemies' ranks, and furthermore, the Thraddash found a separate trope to ascend themselves with: '''WeaponizedExhaust''', one of their starships' signature abilities, creating a trail of deadly fire whenever the Thraddash utilized their Reeunk afterburners.
* When it came to understanding the works of how their exhaust worked, willing Thraddash lectured initially enthusiastic scientists of how the Reeunk Afterburners came to be. The afterburners were named after its inventor, Reeunk the Thraddash Maintenance Engineer, who [[AccidentalDiscovery unintentionally created the first-ever application of the Reeunk Afterburner]] when sticking a cigar in the aft fuel valve of his ship. At that moment, the ship was zooming "like a farg out of hell" at record speeds, which encouraged other Thraddash to utilize this feature and improve it to the current Reeunk Afterburners used in all Thraddash Torches. The inventor, Reeunk, would not live to enjoy his incredible achievements due to being incinerated by the reaction's explosion. Former intrigue turned to apathy once it was realized that the Thraddash's famous advancement was from [[NoOSHACompliance terrible safety standards]]. The Thraddash simply bragged that their ingenuity could not be comprehended by the feeble minds of the Pantheon.
* Due to the DeathIsCheap nature of the Pantheon, every Grand United Alliance excluding the GUAD, uninterested in teaching the Thraddash, took in many of the Thraddash they repeatedly defeated as disciples to learn from their examples. Every Thraddash aligned with one of said Alliances is designated as a member of a variant of Culture 20, while the Thraddash still loyal (also reinforced by threat of destruction) to the Kzer-Za are known as the Thraddash of Culture 19. While their high aggression to non-allied forces and occasionally allies as well makes them plenty of trouble to manage, the Thraddash find themselves working for deities of various moralities under supervision of a stronger deity, usually as laborers if not fighters, due to their tendency to get into fights with teammates. Occasionally, groups of Thraddash may defect from one side to another, but it's easy to keep in Thraddash by blowing them up over and over again. And no, they don't mind getting killed, and are not hypocritical as to exclude themselves from the idea of killing inferiors repeatedly to keep them in line.
** The Thraddash that find themselves aligned with the Grand United Alliance of Good are known as Culture 20-G, taught to treat allies with kindness, respect, and tolerance, or if they can't do that, then to valiantly fight against villains and defend those who can't. These Thraddash tend to treat every deity that isn't hostile to them as if they were best friends, and are sometimes fun to hang around with as they exchange stories of their latest mishap with others.
** Thraddash brought to serve the Grand United Alliance of Evil are referred to as Culture 20-E, taught to engage in despicable acts at the first opportunity and to ruthlessly beat down and torment those who aren't on their side. Doing the best they can prove Melkor how evil they are, they participate in various acts of villainy, from burning settlements, [[KickTheDog kicking puppies]], blowing up vehicles, [[ShootingSuperman shooting Superman in the face]], or [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking never cleaning up the messes they make after eating.]]
** All of the Thraddash that YHVH has indoctrinated into the Grand United Alliance of Law are known as Culture 20-L, that simply go through a strict routine of worshiping their superiors or doing boring chores, assuming they're not sent to break someone's back for performing some form of heresy. Despite what their race's overall alignment would indicate, Thraddash don't really mind doing labor for YHVH since there's hardly much thinking involved in being a follower of Law, though they tend to make screw-ups that lead to them being screamed at often.
** Every Thraddash individual fighting for Lucifer are classified as part of Culture 20-C, and these Thraddash haven't really changed much from their allegiance to the forces of Chaos. The GUAC's goals align with the Thraddash philosophy of superior cultures destroying the weaker ones and the Thraddash of this sub-culture enjoy fighting under Lucifer and his allies. Lucifer himself seems to be the most passionate in proving the superiority of his Thraddash culture over the others, perhaps due to how the Thraddash's nature as it is deconstructs his values, and wants to improve the Thraddash under him to better represent the ways of Chaos.
** The Grand United Alliance of Nature decided it would be best to make their culture of Thraddash, Culture 20-N, relegated to handling dangerous plants (usually the ones that could eat up a human whole) or being on guard duty, which they usually find boring. They will jump at any threat that shows up in the GUAN's vicinity, and sometimes cause fires with the exhaust of their ship, making Culture 20-N quite difficult to maintain.
** For the Thraddash within the Grand United Alliance of Machines, also known as Culture 20-M, are primarily testing subjects for organic-to-machine conversion or as testing dummies. Unfortunately for them, Thraddash that successfully get converted into machines don't retain the conversion on resurrection, and even as machines, their reckless mindset somehow overrides the machinery within them no matter how hard the GUAM tries.
* Excluding the Alliances, any deity with great power or willingness to dominate those who get their way can find themselves with allied Thraddash after a good massacre. While working with other groups of minions after being defeated by their superiors or a lot of fighting with each other, the Thraddash got along with Bebop and Rocksteady, the latter delighted to have more people that look similar to him working along with him. Some can be found working with the AAHW and the Rebel Army after they got into a huge fight with sufficient slaughtering on both sides. Of course, this also means that the Thraddash will find themselves getting beaten down by ''their'' enemies as a result, not they don't really mind at all.
** The Thraddash were bound to get in conflict with The Mantis, another ProudWarriorRace with similar glory-seeking desires, and their ships would end up in rather violent battles. While the Mantis troops can certainly make quick work out of oblivious Thraddash should they infiltrate the Torch ships, pursuing those ships is troublesome due to their infamous trail of exhaust when using their afterburners. Many Mantis Cruisers in pursuit have became a charred vessel of large fried grubs due to flying into a line of afterburner flames. The Thraddash enjoy battling against The Mantis, considering the likes of them to be a WorthyOpponent in general, and the Mantis do have acknowledge the Thraddash as a threat to be cautious about when attacking them.
* The [[Pantheon/{{Touring}} Enterprise Crew]] aren't too sure what to think of the Thraddash, and [[Pantheon/{{Titles}} Worf]] definitely doesn't want any comparisons between Klingons and Thraddash, considering the latter's tendency to blow up their own civilization repeatedly as an embarrassment. Interestingly, the Star Trek deities found applicable comparisons with the Thraddash to the Kazon people of their own universe (not to be confused with one of the gods of evil that the unascended Ilwrath worship) that were just a bit more chaotic than the Thraddash. [[Pantheon/{{Heroism}} Commander Shepard]] deems them as more comparable to the Krogan of his universe, though thankfully their nature of blowing themselves up limits their own danger toward other races. They have tried to enlist the help of allied Thraddash of Culture 20-G, but their willingness to jump into battle has made diplomatic conflicts more annoying to handle when they're around. The Illusive Man, who isn't fond of aliens in general, dislikes the Thraddash for their barbaric ways, but thinks they're too self-destructive to worry him.
* Their temple takes the form of their homeworld known as Delta Draconis I, often surrounded by Ur-Quan Dreadnoughts attempting to rein in rogue Thraddash by blasting them down, but they eventually find their way into joining the other powerful alliances in the Pantheon. The temple is also where the Thraddash hold one of their most valuable treasures, known as the Aqua Helix, a Precursor artifact that's normally held in a colony planet, Zeta Draconis I, but the Pantheon wasn't willing to bring back all their colony planets. Deeming the object as holy to them, they don't take well to anyone willing to steal it from them, or to deny its significance to Thraddash culture, as Culture 9 attempted to do only to be decimated by Culture 10 in only two weeks. While stealing the Aqua Helix is not impossible, should they learn of its theft, every Thraddash will go nuts and light everything up in trails of fire in search of the thief, and since such attacks were proving to be more threatening to the Pantheon than their initial attack, the Aqua Helix is not allowed to be touched.
* Regardless of their alignment, Khorne personally admires the Thraddash due to their penchant for continuous violence and having a warrior code to abide by strictly, though it does get changed with each new Culture that the Thraddash develop. The God-Emperor of Mankind, not a big fan of hostile aliens in general, is upset to see one of the Ur-Quan's Battle Thralls gain a place in the Pantheon. What's more is that they remind him of the SpaceOrcs that his armies have to deal with, though thankfully not as terrible of a threat as the Orks can be. Liking the idea of being a menace to someone so integral to humanity, the Thraddash decided to meet up with Ghazghkull and his Orks to celebrate their commonalities. Said celebration consisted of blasting each other into oblivion, obviously.
* If there's a group that the Thraddash consistently loathe, it's pacifists and advocates of peace in general. They all believe that such cultures are bound to be easily destroyed, as what had occurred with Culture 14, which was one of the few cultures to try and stop their constant wars, citing how each Culture reset would set back the race by 500 years each time. And after 10 years of ruling, Culture 14 was uprooted by Culture 15, who disproved their belief by showing that [[ComicallyMissingThePoint only 200-300 years of progression were lost at most.]] They also have a lot of beef with the House of Philosophy, with their deities upset about how the Thraddash stubbornly cling on their excessively aggressive ideals.
** Kenshiro thought it would be a good idea to put an end to their bloodthirsty ways himself, though for him in particular, the Thraddash were tougher to deal with than the usual post-apocalyptic thugs he had to deal with. Not only was their skin tough and resistant to physical damage, but his method of fighting, Hokuto Shinken, wasn't as effective on Thraddash in general. Since the Thraddash are aliens, their biology, and thus their pressure points, were much different than that of humans, if they even had any at all. Kenshiro still had his raw strength and skills to make for it however, and the Thraddash have yet to defeat Kenshiro despite their advantages, some even deciding to join Kenshiro out of his respect for his killing, although he rejected their offer out of disgust.
---> '''Znork the Recently Killed Thraddash''': "HARG! HARG! HARG! When the shirtless man kills us, we do not explode into gibs like humans do! This only proves again that we Thraddash are the greater species!"
* All the {{Toku}} heroes in the Pantheon eventually caught the Thraddash's attention, but instead of finding another group of people to fight, they noted a peculiar commonality between many of them. Mainly, it's how their enemies usually [[DefeatEqualsExplosion explode in a glorious end]] once they get finished off, astounded by the effects. They don't really care about the general philosophy or morals that said heroes stand for, however, and just care for the action. They have attempted to make their own team of color-coded Thraddash to replicate the success of such heroes, though they end up causing each other to explode in flames more often than their foes.
* The weaponry that the Yooks and Zooks developed had excited the Thraddash who found an efficient way to blow up their enemies into oblivion, especially the "Bitsy Big-Boy Bomberoo". However, the Pantheon isn't letting them use such weapons to annihilate each other, to their dismay. A common argument that the Thraddash will have with each other is whether the Yooks or the Zooks would last to make a new Culture of their own, and at times try to urge the Yooks and Zooks to use their most devastating explosives available, but the two warring sides simply ignore the Thraddash. However, one day, both the Yooks and Zooks reported instances of being raided by mysterious brutes in weird cult-like robes. Not too soon, many deities at a battle between the GUAL and GUAC suddenly perished all at once, with the battlefield turned into a field of ash. Once all the deities who fell victim to the explosion were revived, YHVH was seen chastising and yelling at Culture 20-L for unwarranted destruction.
* Learning about how the Saiyans in the Pantheon would grow stronger over time with nigh-infinite potential would get the Thraddash thinking deeply, for once. For the Thraddash, gaining Saiyan traits would benefit their proficiency as a species greatly and perhaps please their teachers in the process, on top of furthering their reputation in the Pantheon. Some Thraddash have attempted to get into biology for the sake of learning how to be like the Saiyans. The Culture 20-C Thraddash have also been part of experiments to be infused with Saiyan DNA to see if the Thraddash could benefit and become elite soldiers of the GUAC. Unfortunately, none of the Thraddash seem to have gained any significant benefits aside from furthered stupidity, recklessness, and a monkey tail. Some observers believe that the Thraddash can't utilize the potential of Saiyan DNA due to how alien the Thraddash are. Others claim that the Thraddash lack the spirit and willpower Saiyans generally have, although the Thraddash think otherwise. [[Pantheon/{{Metafiction}} Deadpool]] simply remarked that the Thraddash simply lack the AnimeHair to signify the many, many transformations a Saiyan could have.
* Even the Thraddash don't really like the House of Pantheon/{{Slaughter}}, citing how Culture 3 maimed and brutalized ''themselves'' in order to intimidate enemy Thraddash. This went to the point of Culture 3 veterans having to roll around due to lack of limbs, which many Thraddash will admit was a really stupid culture in general, and it being surpassed by Culture 4 proving that further. Similarly, the House of Pantheon/HatredAndRancor is too much for them, having learned from Culture 12, which was so unnecessarily hostile that it sabotaged itself due to its leaders destroying each other for petty reasons, letting their original enemy, Yajag, dealing with the remnants of their chaos and establishing Culture 13 in their place. Not to mention that the House of Pantheon/BetrayalAndTreachery reminds them of the sneaky and deceptive Culture 16, whose methods were considered unworthy to be practiced by Thraddash today due to being defeated by Culture 17 who managed to deal with all their deceptions, as history would show.
* Through being defeated again and again into joining other alliances, the Thraddash have been taught under other teachers of various subjects. John Keating attempted to teach the Thraddash how to make poetry on request, but what the Thraddash had written up made Keating eventually give up and say that the Thraddash have already found their "style". Yakko, Wakko, and Dot decided to teach other Thraddash how to be wacky like them, showing them slapstick cartoons and the like to educate them. Soon enough, a few Thraddash were pulled into the Animaniacs' antics becoming the ButtMonkey of their humor, though they surprisingly don't mind. There were also a few Thraddash students who were willing to train under John Kreese, liking his "No Mercy" motto, though they too have troubled Kreese not by how they beat up weaker human students of his, but all the property damage they cause from recklessness alone.
* Lobo, infamous for managing to take out the rest of his incredibly violent species, is idolized by many Thraddash. A powerful man like him that can put down all other of his kind, get away with it, and even defy death (due to neither Hell nor Heaven wanting him) is the type of guy that any sane Thraddash would want to become. In fact, there's a new Thraddash belief that the ultimate Thraddash Culture would be something like Lobo's situation, one Thraddash blowing up the rest of their species into irrelevance for good and that one Thraddash being unstoppable, as Lobo has done, becoming the "Final and Supreme" Culture of his own species. With their respect for Lobo, they can be seen kindly greeting the Last Czarnian asking to punch his face politely. Lobo usually accepts and gives them his own in return, amazing other Thraddash by splattering the recipient's innards everywhere.

* In a future where humanity was put on the brink of extreme isolation and depopulation, a young boy named Simon used to live in an underground village harvesting ancient artifacts to make a living alongside his surrogate older brother, Kamina. Initially a dull life, they are, one day after excavating the remains of a pair of mecha known as the Gurren and the Lagann, interrupted by a mechanical being from above who attacked their village, and coming under attack from a girl named Yoko Littner. Simon and Kamina quickly took their opportunity to pilot Gurren and Lagann and defeat the being, alongside discovering a source of power known as the ''Spiral Energy''. Together with Yoko, the three left the village on good terms and officially established Team Dai-Gurren, with the intent to explore the surface and embark on an epic journey to discover more about the Spiral Energy as well as fight against more of what the being came from, which was revealed to be part of a mutant race known as the Beastmen. Along their adventure, Simon, Kamina, and Yoko met and befriended several figures, such as Leeron, Kittan Bachika, and Rossiu Adai, who were eager to join along and fight with them, though Kamina was later killed in battle against the Beastman, Thymilph. Initially despondent and unsure of what to do, Simon stumbled across a lost princess, Nia Teppelin, who provided him the motivation to regain his confidence and continue the fight. Developing a rivalry with a Beastman, Viral, who has continuously fought back against them, Team Dai-Gurren would battle against the Beastmen, eventually coming across their leader, and Nia's father, Lordgenome, who engaged in a tough battle against Simon against the fate of Mankind on Earth. In the end, Simon prevailed in the grueling fight and defeated Lordgenome, finally allowing Mankind to step out of their shadows and thrive on the surface of the world for years to come...
** Years later, with Simon having established a bustling community and being hailed as a hero, the world was suddenly under attack again when, with the birth of the millionth human, Kittan's niece via his oldest younger sister, Kiyoh, a hive of mechas controlled by the mysterious Anti-Spiral decided to lay siege upon Earth, intending to enforce severe population control in a deluded attempt to halt the increase of Spiral Energy and keeping the Spiral Nemesis at bay. His arrival also caused Nia to be subjugated to its control, forcing Simon into a dire situation, especially when Rossiu decides to enact on his own suggestions, even taking advice from Lordgenome to make heavy sacrifices and, when his burdens are too much to bear, contemplates suicide. However, Simon snapped Rossiu out of his grief and rallies up his friends to make a valiant stand against the Anti-Spiral, bringing back Nia and even allying with Lordgenome to combat the Anti-Spiral itself. The battle was won by Simon and his comrades with the Anti-Spiral entrusting the victor to keep in check of the Spiral Energy and be prepared for the Spiral Nemesis, though, at the cost of many of his trusted ones, including Kittan, and with her own life tethered to the Anti-Spiral's being, Nia dies shortly after marrying Simon. After years of hardships, Team Dai-Gurren were able to earn themselves a well-established community and a belief of hope for years to come, with Simon giving up his Core Drill to a fellow fighter and friend, Gimmy.
* With Simon having and his remaining friends having made their story, they were content in looking after the next generation and settling down to either relax or to inspire others into taking arms for what they believe in. That is until an unexpected visitation came in the form of Kamina himself when he confronted the older Simon. Initially confused, Simon asked what was going on, with his older brother explaining that sometime after defeating the Anti-Spiral, Kamina got to experience a whole new world known as the Trope Pantheons and gushed about just how awesome and cool it was to meet with beings who were just as stylish and badass as they could be. It later went on into a conversation regarding the overall coolness of the Pantheon until Kamina revealed that despite it all, there's a series of great threats looming over the new world and, if left unchecked, could potentially start invading and destroying theirs. Simon expressed worry and concern, but what really motivated him was learning about the Anti-Spiral's presence in the Pantheon, which gave him all the motivation he needed to consider entering the Pantheon. Getting into contact with his friends, Simon and Team Dai-Gurren quickly banded back together to make their grand entrance in the Pantheon.
** To the group's delight, Kamina wasn't the sole individual among the deceased who made his way into the Pantheon. They were quickly able to reunite with Kittan, who has proud to see that he made some kind of difference to his group as well as seeing that his sisters were leading a happy life. He took this as a sign that he was better than before and that the Pantheon has been allowing him to not just motivate him to be a more capable warrior like Simon and Kamina are, but to also make sure that his loved ones are safe and inspired by him. And lastly, Simon was nearly unresponsive to discovering Nia alive again after so long and his friends have had to push him into having a heartfelt reunion with one another. With this said and done, Simon and Nia were quick to profess their love and affection for one another and declare themselves husband and wife again, this time with the added effect of getting a lot of individuals in the Pantheon, Kamina included, to be attending and congratulating him. With the band wholly united for once, Team Dai-Gurren were eager to establish their reputation and camaraderie in the Pantheon, something that the Anti-Spiral has since noticed and has kept himself prepared for the occasion they were to battle again.
* What makes Team Dai-Gurren famous in the Pantheon is simply two things; [[TookALevelInBadass badassery]], which the group has consistently demonstrated by escalating their determination and action to a point where their scale becomes [[BeyondTheImpossible simply incomprehensible to take account into]], and making several of the perceived most badass individuals in the Pantheon either wince in excitement, respect, or glee for multiple reasons. The other is being a [[HopeBringer beacon of hope]], which stems from the fact that the group, at least under Simon's leadership via Kamina's wishes and Nia's encouragement, were able to provide Humanity a sense of relief and positive expectations freely for the first time in a thousand years. These two qualities have been key to making Team Dai-Gurren among the most celebrated groups in the Pantheon, something which Kamina gushes upon with utmost pride, proud to see that Simon not only successfully carried out his legacy, but also surpassed him both as a mentor, as a leader, and as a pilot.
* Their reputation was such that they were quickly considered for recruitment by the Pantheon/GrandUnitedAllianceOfGood via the [[Pantheon/GUAGRobotWarDivision Robot War Division's]] [[Pantheon/GUAGRobotWarDivisionThirdBattlegroup Third Battlegroup]]. While they possess some of the craziest, most powerful assets any mecha is capable of possessing, Simon and Kamina mainly serve as group morale mediators to all of the Robot War Division's Battlegroup and the rest of the Pantheon's heroic community while Rossiu, being the most logical and pragmatic of the group, being opted to serve as a logistics overseer and mecha analyzer for much of the Battlegroup's robotic stockpile. Of course, Team Dai-Gurren accepted the offer as they're well aware that with the Anti-Spiral now willing to increase its own armada and strength per the Pantheon's nature, their own presence and hope is now more necessary for the Pantheon than it is on their own world, which has been quite a burden for the group to bear.
* Given the Pantheon's nature, Team Dai-Gurren would inevitably come across many figures who have piloted mechas much like them, though it was their tendency to surpass limits and provide optimism where they really distinguished themselves from the others. One notable example came from Ryoma Nagare, who also possessed a streak of impulsiveness and steadfast determination in fighting for what he believed in, though, unlike Simon and Kamina, his hot-bloodedness was more on the lines of rendering him into a raging berserker on the battlefield. He was amused to discover just how much he paralleled with Team Dai-Gurren regarding their quirks, similarities, and differences, though now that they're in a realm where greater threats mean alliances, he's had to be quick in forging a partnership with Team Dai-Gurren. He appreciates their optimistic enthusiasm, though is nature as a berserker can make some members like Leeron wince at just how much destruction he creates on the battlefield. As his partner, Hayato Jin explains...
-->Hayato Jin: "Looks like the only ones who can pilot Getter Robo are either superior pilots… or insane!"
** On a lighter note, other mecha pilots like Kouji Kabuto, Tetsuya Tsurugi, Sayaka Yumi, and Jun Hono, were a lot more level-headed than Ryoma is, whilst still possessing a hot-blooded streak, much like most members of Team Dai-Gurren. Given their nature of wanting to protect the world from grand threats, they had a mutual goal and they got along very easily, with Kouji and Tetsuya expressing admiration and even a light bit of inspiration from Team Dai-Gurren's exploits, hoping that they could learn from those experiences and make an effort to better their own mechas. Sayaka and Jun also quickly got along with Simon and Nia, given their similar story of finding a love interest and getting married throughout the whole event of giant robot battles, though they expressed condolences towards Nia for passing away shortly after getting married as well as Yoko for having to lose both of her love interests only shortly after those were confessed.
** The Gundams were a more complex matter, in that whilst most of the mechas from other realms were mainly centered around battles and attempts to save one's own world's, those in the Gundam, universe, in addition to the above, also had to deal with personal and political matters that made challenges for them more difficult. Of all the members in Team Dai-Gurren, Rossiu was the only one who could communicate well enough in a logistical and political fashion to make arrangements and negotiations regarding how Gundams can be managed as well as looked after in some way or another. While they were able to get along with Amuro Ray, Heero Yui, and Kira Yamato due to their fair share of heroic actions and reputation, the likes of Muruta Azrael and the Zabi Family were very quickly assumed to be enemies due to their militant and self-superiority-driven acts of destruction and control they sought to perpetuate. Simon instantly disliked Muruta for being the worst kind of petty regarding his motivations and has stated that he won't live another day if he ever gets to touch Nia, and even Kamina drops any pretense of being over-the-top from confronting them. As for the Zabi family, much of Team Dai-Gurren's animosity is directed towards Gihren as he was more than willing to commit mass destruction by deploying colonies on populated settlements as a way to inspire terror, whilst taking compliments from being compared to Nazism. Mineva, on the other hand, has been an exception, and she ended up generally liking and working with Team Dai-Gurren on several occasions when it comes to political efforts and mecha fights.
* Simon and his group weren't the only figures who were large aspirations of hope. A little into their time in the Pantheon, Simon had met Madoka Kaname after hearing about her tales in her mortal life and well as her reputation of being the most beloved goddess in the Pantheon no thanks to her sense of compassion and desire to grant happiness towards everyone and not just those she saw as friends and family. The two, much to their surprise, managed to strike a very close friendship with each other as they recognized that [[ClassicalAntiHero they had to deal with a lot of burden and self-esteem issues before becoming grand symbols of hope and combating against a grave threat to the cosmos]]. It endeared the two to learn that they could learn from each other in some ways, given that Simon was inspired by Madoka's selfless desire to save ''all'' magical girls from their fate of becoming witches. That said, Madoka's status as a literal hope goddess meant that she and Simon couldn't spend much time together, which he understood as he himself had a lot of responsibilities to hold up on as well.
** Then came a drastic turn of events, which were perpetrated by [[Pantheon/{{Ambiguity}} Lucifer]] via enticing and promising Madoka's dear friend, [[Pantheon/TimeTravelling Homura Akemi]] of a way to save Madoka from further despair, which played a huge role in sapping away much of Madoka's power and influence and rendering her back into a normal human. This came as a massive shock to Team Dai-Gurren as they didn't expect a large alignment schism to occur too soon, and with Madoka's depowerment, much of the Pantheon became pessimistic and distrustful with the GUAG due to their poor performance and communication, which also saw it's [[Pantheon/GUAGMagicalGirlSisterhood Magical Girl Sisterhood Division]] split off to form its own organization Since then, Simon took it upon himself to visit Madoka and keep her spirits up, learning that she suffers from self-esteem despite doing the best she could to remain optimistic. And regarding Homura, Simon does understand her situation and why she did what she had to do, but that doesn't mean he would condone her actions as it meant putting the Pantheon at risk. Their reactions to Madoka regaining part of her powers also had a contrasting reaction as Homura was not happy and felt that this would put Madoka in danger while Simon was happy and proud to see that his friend was able to fight back and potentially help to inspire others again.
* Having dealt with extreme oppression due to the acts of Lordgenome and The Anti-Spiral, Team Dai-Gurren has made further enemies with similar beings who promoted that theme above all else. One of those was the government of Big Brother, seeing as they have outlawed any sense of strong emotions, feelings, and attachments and wanted to ensure that everything was under authoritative control, [[DespotismJustifiesTheMeans regardless if it meant that others had to mentally and emotionally suffer for it]]. Naturally, Team Dai-Gurren, [[AllLovingHero Nia included]], was infuriated to learn of Big Brother's system and have vowed to dismantle it by any means necessary. However, they were in for a rude awakening, for Big Brother had anticipated Team Dai-Gurren's opposition and had made preparations in opposing them back via finding ways to neutralize and disable the gathering of Spiral Energy. They intend to dismantle their mechas as a means to eliminate further threats and, upon defeating and killing them, also erase records of Team Dai-Gurren's existence, ensuring that no one will ''know of their existence'', much less looking up to them for aspiration.
* After The Anti-Spiral himself, Team Dai-Gurren found their biggest Pantheonic enemy in the New God, Darkseid. Seeing as the group's main power source and motivation stemmed from the belief in hope and never giving up, the Lord of Apokolips envisioned his ultimate goal in enslaving all of existence into a hellish domain full of death, misery, and hopelessness, and in a sense, Darkseid was the absolute antithesis of the Spiral Energy. On top of that, the fact that The Anti-Spiral was actually willing to align himself with the Lord of Tyranny and be a key leading figure in his Pantheon/HarbingersOfRepression meant that Team Dai-Gurren couldn't ignore him one bit, and have since dedicated himself to stopping Darkseid at all costs. Strangely, Darkseid himself not only registers Team Dai-Gurren as a notable threat but also sees Simon and Kamina as [[WorthyOpponent worthy adversaries]] and would much rather want to corrupt and enslave them into his services, feeling that their Gurren Lagann mecha would prove a useful asset in his quest to dominate all of the Pantheon. Darkseid, however, takes Nia more seriously than most of her enemies, noting [[TheHeart her nature as a team mediator]] and seeks to silence and enslave her first in an effort to make things easier for him. It doesn't matter if he angers Simon, Darkseid is willing to take the challenge of fighting against some of the most badass beings in the Pantheon if it means he can further assert his dominance and nature as the God of Tyranny.
* Their reputation attracted the attention of the Lantern Corps, intergalactic organizations that were powered by special rings via specific emotions and using one's imagination to create constructs, replicas, and matters of energy for various uses. Of course, the two that immediately gained Team Dai-Gurren's respect were the Green and Blue Lanterns. The Green Lanterns represented Willpower and each and every member has displayed the capability to display a great deal of that via their determination and the enormous amount of Spiral Energy they amass in their fights. Hal Jordan and John Stewart were glad and willing to lend the group spare Green Lantern rings in case they have their me has missing or destroyed, a sentiment which the team agreed on, with Kamina, in particular, gushing about the capabilities of being a Green Lantern and Kittan finding a common ground with Guy Gardner for being overly boisterous {{Leader Wannabe}}s who could still prove their valor by a ton. As for the Blue Lanterns, Saint Bro'dee Walker commends Team Dai-Gurren for their nature to inspire and advocate for Hope, which is what energizes a Blue Lantern Ring. He personally selected Nia as a potential candidate for wielding a Blue Lantern Ring in the future, stating that she will be among the many needed for a selection of new recruits during s time when a great evil will emerge to threaten the Pantheon's existence. Nia accepted Saint Walker's terms and has since possessed a Blue Lantern Ring since, though she's kept herself from using it unless either a dire situation occurs, or the events of what Saint Walker stated have occurred. Either way, she's seen as a paragon for the Blue Lanterns and Nia remains on great terms with them.
** Among the other Lantern Corps, Team Dai-Gurren was at unease when encountered by the Red Lantern and Sinestro Corps, who were noted to have been far more ruthless and uncompromising than others of their kind. Thaal Sinestro commended Simon for his efforts in stopping The Anti-Spiral and he even admitted his own opposition against them as The Anti-Spiral was eerily reminiscent of the Manhunters that hounded the galaxy destroying planets and civilizations out of a deliberate malfunction that made them desire order in lethal fashion, whereas Atrocitus, in addition to being allies with Lordgenome, felt that with the loss that they've endured, some of the members, particularly Simon, would be capable of wielding a Red Lantern Ring, though it turned out the Blue and Green Lanterns were ultimately more suitable for them, as well as comparing The Anti-Spiral to the actions committed by [[Pantheon/{{Mindsets}} Krona]]. The three of them came to form a difficult partnership, as Team Dai-Gurren can't fully bring it upon themselves to trust either Sinestro and Atrocitus de to their fair share of unsavory actions committed in their goals of a [[UtopiaJustifiesTheMeans peaceful order]] and [[RevengeBeforeReason righteous vengeance]] respectively. That said, the two Lantern Corps leaders maintain some degree of respect for the team and are aware that they would be necessary for an alliance when it comes to dealing with threats that can potentially destroy the Pantheon.
* Their stories can be seen as a more hopeful and optimistic parallel compared to the EVA Children, consisting of Shinji Ikari, Rei Ayanami, Asuka Langley-Soryu, and Kaworu Nagisa, as all four of them were teens that were forcefully drafted into piloting giant mechas known as Evangelions to fight against a collective of abstract monsters known as Angels to defend civilization, which later led to a series of events regarding psychological breakdowns and unnerving revelations that drove the four teens into melancholy and despair as their fight to save Humanity only became more intense. Their tale saddened Team Dai-Gurren, but it didn't stop them from approaching and befriending them and telling them that what they did was brave and admirable, considering the circumstances they went through. They, in turn, thanked Team Dai-Gurren for their hospitality and came to see them as good friends, in spite of their differentiating mindsets. Oddly enough, they spend more time trying to hang out, with Team Dai-Gurren aiming to help the teens out emotionally and mentally, though times, where the two have fought against mutual threats together, have occurred from time to time.
* Their knack of using mechas caught the interest of the Transformers, and Team Dai-Gurren's pursuit of hope and determination won them a great deal of appreciation from the Autobot leader, Optimus Prime, as well as fellow ascended Autobots, Bumblebee, Ironhide, and Arcee. Given that they themselves have defended Earth and the cosmos for a very long time, their relationship has been neutral and Kamina often squees about Optimus and his organization, wishing that the Gurren Lagann itself was sentient. The Dinobots, on the other hand, were a lot more complicated, given that they were more motivated by who was the strongest, and generally don't care about hope. They did, however, respect Simon, Kamina, and their friends for their strength and fighting against Lordgenome and The Anti-Spiral, whom they see as bullies, though their violent tendencies make working with them difficult. Of course, Megatron and his ascended Decepticon followers were quick to learn and register Team Dai-Gurren as potential threats the moment they and the Autobots became friends. While Megatron has consistently proven himself to be a powerful foe for Team Dai-Gurren and has fought several times, the biggest threat to Simon and his group regarding Transformers is the {{Omnicidal|Maniac}} PlanetEater, Unicron, who only desires to devour planets until there is none left, and Unicron himself is hellbent on destroying Team Dai-Gurren as he knows that the Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann would be a considerable threat to his existence and that he feels a need to snuff out whatever hope and Spiral Energy he can come across.
* Nia was initially a guardian representative in the House of Pantheon/FriendshipAndCamaraderie, serving as one-third of ''The Friendship Trio''. While she's since lost her position due to deciding to fully commit herself to helping out her husband and their fellow friends, she still maintains a great deal of authority and respect in her former house. Being a sweet, compassionate, and understanding girl helped Nia's popularity greatly and she's made a concentrated effort in not just keeping up with that reputation, but also making the most out of helping and inspiring others, much like Simon did. She made fellow friends with the pony, Fluttershy, given their very similar characteristics and the two serve as the moral center of their companies. Speaking of, Nia also got to learn about and become well-acquainted with the Mane Six, who champion and represent friendship via their Cutie Marks, and see Nia as a fellow relatable figure whom they could always count on. Given her own position as a princess, Nia also found common ground with Starfire, an extraterrestrial humanoid who was also the princess of Tamara, but circumstances regarding her rivalry with her sister, Blackfire, and being seen as an exile forced Starfire to come to Earth and become a hero in her own right. Given their similar events of being castaways, Nia and Starfire can understand each other better than many and they've come to try helping each other out on a lot of occasions, alongside them seeing each other as a good friends in need.
* Upon meeting each other again, Kamina was amused to discover that Kittan had a romantic affection for Yoko later on in his mortal life, and the two decided to squabble in a friendly rivalry over it, though they've made it a point to always look out for and fight alongside Yoko, no matter what. On a professional note, Yoko acts as a teacher and sometimes visits the House of Pantheon/{{School}} to provide as a substitute, though her headstrong and caring nature has led her to become quite popular in her own right. That's not to say some see Yoko as quite attractive there as well, but knowing that Kamina and Kittan have an affection for her, chances are that no one's going to try to hit on her, not to mention Yoko herself is a skilled user of sniper rifles, though she declines to have to use her combat skills in jobs like paid assassination for understandable reasons. On a similar note, Kittan, for all of his abrasive attitude, has a fondness for kids and sometimes stops by the House of Pantheon/ChildhoodAndAdolescence so that he can provide the residents there with some kind of aspiration and glee upon seeing a giant robot that they could see as cool. The fact that kids like Kittan back has helped, alongside him trying his best to be of good company with his niece from his sister, Kiyoh.
* Being part-man and part-shark, Viral's nature as a Beastman makes him naturally inclined to pay a visit to the Hall of Pantheon/AnthropomorphicAnimals, though whenever he's actually there, he tends to have various sorts of mixed feelings. He can generally find himself comfortable there and even help out its residents from time to time, but he also feels angsty in the sense that above all, his biggest desire is to start a family, but his Beastman physiology means that he can never really reach those desires and even if he managed to accomplish it, his immortality means that he would eventually outlast his family. He doesn't like to be pitied by the House of Pantheon/FamilyAndRelatives either and usually tends to keep this information to himself. Speaking of, Viral feels rather nervous about visiting that particular House as well, for obvious reasons, though that doesn't mean he means any ill intent, if anything, Viral will defend the House of Family and Relatives if he feels it's in danger. On a more personal note, while his type of Beastmen were villainous and were focused on subjugation, the likes of Khazrak and Gorthor crept him out, mainly because all they desired was destruction and carnage out of an intense misanthropic hate towards mankind. Viral quickly came to battle against those two Beastmen and was appalled to see just how much damage they were willing to cause, deciding that it's best that they are killed off quickly. Gorthor simply sees Viral as another pest to destroy, whereas Khazrak sees him as a WorthyOpponent worth matching wits against, sentiments which Viral did not reciprocate.

* Feared by: Every evil military officer in the Pantheon, most notably [[Pantheon/VillainousArchetypes Colonel Mael Radec]]
* Respects: [[Pantheon/GamingGenres John Carmack]]
* Divine Holder of: [[Pantheon/TheArmory The Zero Point Energy Field Manipulator]]
* Freeman's ascension into the Pantheon unfortunately brought with it a plague of headcrabs, which unfortunately started infesting various parts of the Pantheon. Keep them in check or they will try to… mate with your face.
** However, Gordon's ascension also brought up [[Pantheon/TeamFortress2 Mann Co's ascension]] and finally Chell. It further escalated since his ascension paved the way for [[Pantheon/{{Dota2}} The Defenders of the Ancients]] to be ascended.
* It did not take long till the G-Man finally came into appearance after what seemed to be forever. His take on Gordon's ascension can be described as this:
--> '''G-Man:''' "[[DreamIntro Rise and shine, Mr. Freeman. Rise and shine.]]"
* Inmediately after ascending, Pinkie Pie, as usual, threw a welcome party for Gordon and invited him to make a speech to all the guests. However, she didn't realize that Gordon was [[TheVoiceless a man of a few words]] and as a result, stood awkwardly in front of everybody for 15 straight minutes.
* Gordon is viewed as one of the most important symbols of hope in the GUAG for being able to fight off one of the most important and dangerous armies of fiction, [[TheEmpire The Combine]]. This didn't sit well with the leaders of the other alliances and they are planning to get rid of Gordon. It won't be an easy task tough, cause Gordon isn't a man that's supposed to be in the [[RightManInTheWrongPlace correct place at the correct time]]
** Due to this, almost every evil military officer or inquisitor have immediate chills whenever they see him. Colonel Mael Radec has the highest fear towards him and is willing to retreat if he sees him in combat.
* It is theorized that if Gordon and Yue teamed up, they would be able to figure out the weaknesses of every god in the Pantheon. Except [[Pantheon/FanReaction Fred Rogers]]. He has no weakness (although they could try).
** The only reason that they haven't yet done this is because Yue is [[BrilliantButLazy too lazy to be bothered with it]], preferring to hang out in the library and learn techniques from the Pantheon of Magic, and Gordon [[HeroicMime isn't very talkative]]. They still hang out in the Library from time to time.
* One of the few deities [[TheEngineer Isaac Clarke]] hangs out with in his free time. They can be seen testing new prototypes of their new weapons. Recently, Isaac has been tinkering with Gordon's Gravity Gun to newer hights.
** Ellen Ripley and Samus Aran has complemented Gordon's company, especially since he can kick alien ass better (or equally, in Samus' terms) than them. The Doomguy has seen him as another ally to join with, and Master Chief on the other hand applauded his achievements. Commander Shepard however, has seen heavy suspicion on his employer.
* A follower of Gordon's has claimed to have been receiving divine messages from on high, directly from Gordon himself and containing his innermost thoughts. For the benefit of Gordon's other followers, he has transcribed them into [[WebVideo/FreemansMind a series of videos]] posted online. The contents are...surprising, to say the least. The other deities were, [[HeroicMime as usual]], unable to get Gordon to say anything regarding the validity of the man's claims or the accuracy of the video content. However, since these videos may be the closest thing to a legitimate window into Gordon's thoughts that the Pantheon may ever have, and since they are widely regarded both inside and outside the Pantheon as being [[RuleOfFunny incredibly entertaining]], this man has been officially designated a prophet of Gordon and has been allowed to continue his work, which has since entered Season 2.
* Aside from the aformentioned series, there has been some sightings on Freeman's adventure, [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=aqRUjjuUl7U with the first sighting getting his suit]] and [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=l1SvvagUGuU another sighting]] recorded [[VisualInnuendo in what it looks like his suit "going inside" of him]]. Due to the nature of said recordings, children are not allowed to view it, though many perverted gods enjoyed watching it.
* Please, don't try to bring up the fact that [[DevelopmentHell his third game hasn't came out yet]]. He gets pretty sad when that happens.
* Was surprisingly approached by Nyarko and her friends, Cuuko and Hasta, saying they were one of his greatest fans for his "Crowbar Skills" and asked him if he could teach them some of his moves.
* With Breen's ascension, and later the Combine, Gordon has been on the run just to avoid elimination. Many deities are helping him out so he can recover from the waves of Combine Soldiers trying to dispose of him.
** On the other hand, Gordon's assistance has finally arrived as the Vortiguants ascended just in time. They have sworn that they will assist Gordon in every way possible, to end the Combine menance once and for all.
* He has a bit of a hard time [[MemeticMutation keeping his crowbar intact]] whenever he's around [[Pantheon/{{Memes}} JonTron]].
* Also has a spot in the House of [[Pantheon/CharacterRoles Narrative]].
* ''"[[RightManInTheWrongPlace The right man in the wrong place can make all the difference in the world]]"''.
** If you are wondering who said that, it was the G-Man's quote, describing him.

* Complicated Relationship with: [[Pantheon/{{Personalities}} Naota Nandaba]]
* Ascended after batting a satellite with her bass so hard, that ''it exceeded escape velocity'', to the point where it's currently whizzing past several galaxies.
* Her bass is considered to be one of the weirdest weapons in the Pantheon. Aside from it being [[ImpossiblyCoolWeapon a shotgun, rocket launcher, paddle, anti-tank baseball bat, machine gun, and hoverboard]], she can use it to channel something in people's heads called N.O. which allows them to manifest weapons out of their heads, the power of which depends on their emotional maturity.
* Despite generally being a selfish asshole, she's verily fond of people who try to act like someone they're not, and she wants to show them that it's not all bad being themselves.
* Hates Gendo Ikari because he reminds her a lot of Amarao, right down to [[{{Expy}} their appearances]]. She also hates anybody with BigOlEyebrows for the same reasons.
* Finds a lot of similarities with Nonon, a fellow RoseHairedSweetie with a knack for using instruments as weapons who [[Creator/MayumiShintani sounds the same]] as her. Amusingly enough, they bicker over their opinions regarding [[BigOlEyebrows Satsuki]]. She also gets along great with Panty, another HeroicComedicSociopath with [[LovableSexManiac a thing for sex]].
* Once decided to [[TemptingFate play a prank on]] [[Pantheon/{{Anger}} Asura]] by [[Creator/KariWahlgren pretending to be]] [[Pantheon/{{Magic}} Mithra]], and him finding out that he was duped caused a rampage throughout the Pantheon. To the surprise of everyone, she survived, but only because of [[MindScrew how confused he was]].
** Speaking of pretending to be someone, she met up a biker wearing a kitty-eared helmet that sounded (well that would be correct if the person had a head but instead talked through a PDA) just like her. Haruko thinks that Celty is pretty cool though and would love to see what happens if the two fought.
* Proclaimed herself as Luffy's rival after hearing about his quest to become the King of the Pirates, a name shared with Atomsk, [[spoiler:[[JustForFun/IThoughtItMeant though she's more than ready]] to hijack his power when he succeeds]].
* She really doesn't know what to think of [[Pantheon/{{Beast}} Beast Boy]] [[https://youtu.be/fDvYHj9z-Jg dressing up like her]].

* Was rather disappointed to hear [[https://youtu.be/Nkc4eBCy3Sk she wasn't the first]] to do the PlayboyBunny-hoverboarding bit.
* Sometimes shows up in the House of Sports (usually when Naota is there) to play baseball, and usually wins... [[CurbStompBattle by a large margin]]. She finally met a WorthyOpponent when she played against Mugen. By the end of their first game, they were the only ones still standing.
* Greeted Naota following his ascension [[CrashIntoHello by running him over]]. Despite trying to kill him once he got Atomsk's power, she understands his crush on her, [[PetTheDog and has an otherwise decent relationship with him]].
* Is currently planning to leave the Pantheon for a short while to return to Earth, apparently gaining interest in a girl named Hidomi. Nobody knows if Naota or Canti will join her, or if she'll even bring her bass along with her.

* 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.
** Also has a friendly rivalry with Jak, as seen when they fought each other over [[Pantheon/BodilyForm Polygon Man's]] All-Star Power. They're currently in the race to see who can beat [[Pantheon/MotivationsForRevenge Maleficent]] in a battle first. [[spoiler:Jak has the advantage, given he is one of only three deities who defeated Master Xehanort (the others being [[Pantheon/{{Anger}} Terra]] and Riku)]].
*** Most recently, he fought Jak and Daxter in a WebAnimation/DeathBattle. [[spoiler:Ratchet and Clank won due to a greater variety in their arsenal, better healing items, and Clank being able to negate Light Jak's time freeze ability.]] It is said that Ratchet was imminently regretful for the battle, recounting Polygon Man's attempts to force their respective predecessors (Crash Bandicoot and Spyro the Dragon) into a clash.
** He and Clank also share a minor rival with [[Pantheon/GameDesign Sora]], [[Pantheon/{{Quirks}} Donald]], and [[Pantheon/IntrovertFlaws Goofy]] over their respective impacts in various worlds. The trio have constellations in [[WesternAnimation/{{Hercules}} one world]], and African paintings in [[WesternAnimation/TheLionKing1994 another]], while the duo have statues of them with a chief [[VideoGame/RatchetAndClankFutureACrackInTime to commemorate a famous battle]].
* Oftentimes confronts Max Jenius, God of Rocket Swarms, over whose {{Macross Missile Massacre}}s are more [[ImpressivePyrotechnics spectacular]].
* Ratchet once [[FanFic/BadAlertTheExtreme teamed up]] with Aqua to help her deal with Lady Tremaine and her daughters, while she in return helps him deal with Courtney Gears after [[spoiler:they team up to attack Blackwater City and murder its mayor]].
* Yuna once mistook Ratchet for Tidus when he responded to her whistling, due to their [[Creator/JamesArnoldTaylor voices being very similar]]. After the confusion was settled, they decided to become friends, with Ratchet sometimes giving Yuna tips on shooting.
** Speaking of familiar voices, Ratchet has taken quite a shine to Melody, since her voice [[Creator/TaraStrong reminds him]] of his LoveInterest, Talwyn Apogee.
* Due to being a lombax, Ratchet has taken on inventing as a hobby, and has invented a rocket sled, an anti-matter bathroom buddy, and "[[NoodleIncident stunderwear]]", which was said to be huge on Umbris. He even built his first ship at the young age of fourteen... only for it to crash into Novalis during the maiden voyage.
* Bringing up Ratchet's past, where he's a teenage lowlife obsessed with [[ItsPersonal getting payback with Captain Qwark]], and being a {{Jerkass}} to Clank, to the point where [[TheScrappy he was wildly hated by everyone]], is a major BerserkButton, as Ratchet [[IHatePastMe hates being reminded of his abusive self]].
* Whatever you do, make sure to leave Veldin, Ratchet's home planet, alone; threaten to destroy it, and Ratchet will blow you up with his countless weapons, climaxing with the [=RYNO V=]. Chairman Drek and Dr. Nefarious learned this lesson the hard way.
* Is actually quite amused that Amigo has an all-star move which forces enemies to dance, similar to his Groovitron. The two have come to a agreement that they will use their respective moves to help their allies and distract their enemies.
* [[spoiler:Ratchet is, by accident, [[Pantheon/FriendsAndCompanions Gardevoir]]'s original trainer, having caught her as a Ralts in a Great Ball during a major conflict]].

* Opposes: [[Pantheon/{{Physicians}} Plague Knight]] [[spoiler:actually complicated relationships with him and [[Pantheon/{{Gameplay}} Mona]]]]
* Enemies: In general, any forces of evil.
* Made his way into the Pantheon after some Gods took notice of him. They found his short stature, unusual (main) weapon, and his idealistic valor endearing.
* [[http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/yachtclubgames/shovel-knight Had requested the help of many to provide him supplies and resources for his quest to save his beloved from the Enchantress.]] The response was overwhelmingly positive, and the Shovel Knight is preparing for his journey as we speak.
** After his journey, he found his place in the Pantheon, and was very pleased to learn that the title of God of Shields seems to be vacant. He attempted to get his beloved partner Shield Knight ascended to the position. But [[VideoGame/DynastyWarriors Zhang Xingcai]] decided to come in and take most of the tropes relating to shield uses into her position, though Shovel Knight hasn't stopped trying.
*** He finally manages to accomplish this when she ascended as Zhang's High Priestess.
* He is well liked by [[Pantheon/FriendshipDynamics Matt, Pat and Woolie]] who praised his adventures and now hang out together from time to time.
* Most of the pantheon says he's what Mega Man and Link would be should the two ever fuse. Although he is happy to have them as his allies, Shovel Knight is rather annoyed at the statement.
* While travelling his land, he crossed paths with the VideoGame/GodOfWar, [[Pantheon/{{Sinners}} Kratos]]. After a fierce battle that required the use of many of his Relics, Kratos deemed him a worthy opponent, allowing Shovel Knight to rise to Intermediate status. He now occasionally teams up with Kratos in battle.
* [[http://borishehe.deviantart.com/art/Shovel-Knight-vs-the-Order-of-No-Fun-Allowed-488346561 Shovel Knight once accidentally made fun of Sven]], not realizing that he's more than just a Lesser God, which caused the Rogue Knight to get pumped up with God's Strength and smacked him silly. To make up for that blunder, Shovel Knight then issued a challenge to Chaos Knight... [[http://borishehe.deviantart.com/art/Shovel-Knight-vs-the-Order-of-No-Fun-Allowed-2-506541588 but that kinda failed too.]]
* After the ''Plague of Shadows'' DLC, a little doubt has been cast over Shovel Knight's hero-ness, given that [[spoiler:he attacks Plague Knight ''from behind'' after being defeated by him (twice, no less)]] and he [[spoiler:doesn't pull the Order of No Quarter back up from dangling after defeating them ([[VideoGameCaringPotential when a caring player could and would]])]]. Shovel Knight so far has not commented on this, even as the testifier himself made that accusation. Still, if the people in his world [[spoiler:regard Plague Knight as a hero]]… well, he'd rather not get involved with the PlagueDoctor at least.
** At least, until he was told of WHY Plague Knight went on his quest; [[spoiler:to try and become powerful enough for Mona to love when, when in fact she already did love him.]] Because of this new information, he has decided to lay off being suspicious of him, but still warned him to not cause trouble, to while Plague Knight agreed while rolling his eyes underneath his mask.
* On one of his adventures, [[VideoGame/YookaLaylee he somehow ended up in a strange world where there were]] ''[[MediumAwareness three]]'' [[MediumAwareness dimensions]]. [[FirstTimeFeeling Unused to the feeling of being able to move in so many directions]], he found the whole experience extremely disorienting and unpleasant and reacted with horror when he was told that many other such worlds exist. Unwilling to let any obstacle, no matter how daunting, come between him and the possibility of treasure, he sought out worlds that were [[TwoAndAHalfD somewhere in between two and three dimensions]], hoping to build up a tolerance to the third dimension that way.
* Recently, the Blue Burrower located such a world, and returned from an adventure there [[VideoGame/{{Indivisible}} with a brand new story to tell]].
** And he's found himself teaming up with anti-hero Travis Touchdown after learning how Travis is [[VideoGame/TravisStrikesAgainNoMoreHeroes being launched into his own world]] much to everyone's shock.
* Found himself in an unexpected brawl after following a trail of gems to the temple of one Scrooge [=McDuck=]. The battle was set to be in his favor thanks to the fact that Scrooge's cane couldn't penetrate his armor [[spoiler:until Scrooge turned the tide, using a pair of rayguns to neutralize his inertia and friction--but not gravity--and used Shovel Knight's own Shovel Blade to [[OffWithHisHead decapitate the knight himself.]]]] After things settled down, they have become interested in one another, and Shovel Knight is thinking of giving Scrooge a Shovel Blade of his own.
* Has been [[VideoGame/IndiePogo invited to a tournament]] somewhat similar to that of [[Pantheon/NarrativeGenres Master Hand]]'s. And fellow Indie Game deities like [[Pantheon/BeastOther Sash Lilac]], [[Pantheon/SpaceManipulation Captain Viridian]], [[Pantheon/{{Disguises}} Octodad]], and [[Pantheon/LifeAndCreation Dust]] have been invited as well.
** He was also [[https://youtu.be/S2gPvc9MMtk invited to]] [[VideoGame/BladeStrangers another tournament]], and was surprised to see that Isaac [[https://youtu.be/OZJxIp3wvvs got this same invitation,]] fighting with much more than just his tears this time. Despite the initial shock, Shovel Knight has deemed Isaac a respectable opponent and can be seen training with him.
** And just recently, he was invited as an Assist Trophy to the Master Hand's tournament, Super Smash Bros., albeit just as an Assist Trophy. Even though he's not a full-fledged fighter, Shovel Knight considers this a great honor.
* One day while resting in his temple, he woke up to see Shield Knight laying down and resting in his lap. When confused and asked her about why she wasn't with Zhang, the goddess she was the high priestess of, Shield Knight showed him her official papers that made her a diety. [[spoiler:While overjoyed at this news, his joy turned to surprise as he saw it was Plague Knight and Mona whom helped her ascend. Despite this shock, he was more than happy to thank them, even offering to help Plague Knight as long as it doesn't involve destruction. To his surprise, Plague Knight simply asked if he could give him good romance advice with his relationship with Mona, to which the blue knight accepted.]]
** Upon hearing Shield Knight was planning to set out on a trip to the TV World to conquer her Shadow, he insisted to the Investigation Team that he was coming along to help her. Despite the risks of running into ''Shovel Knight's'' own Shadow if he does, and that he would be unable to help Shield Knight should they beat it and grant him ''his'' Persona, he decided that it was worth it and the Team relented. The mission was a success, and Shield Knight managed to obtain her Persona as a result.
* He was deeply impressed by the many honorable knights in the Pantheon such as [[Pantheon/PeopleOfFaith Artix von Krieger]], [[Pantheon/{{Monarchs}} Artoria Pendragon]], [[Pantheon/HeroicRoles Ky Kiske]], [[Pantheon/{{Underclothes}} Sir Arthur]], and [[Pantheon/{{Titles}} Uther the Lightbringer]]. Shovel Knight was even more thrilled to learn about the [[Pantheon/GUAGSacredKnights Order of the Sacred Knights]] and joined it without hesitation along with Shield Knight. He sees [[Pantheon/{{Heroism}} Cosmos]] as a worthy liege and would fight in her name should she call upon him. Cosmos simply told Shovel Knight to continue fighting for what he believed in.

* WorthyOpponent: [[Pantheon/MilitaryAndWarfare Mori Motonari]]
* 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. Things went on a boost when Hideyoshi's strategist, Otani Yoshitsugu, ascended.
* 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.
* Recently he has been working towards finding a seat of power to ensure Hanbei Takenaka's ascension next. Once all of his top retainers have reached godhood, he can begin to move forward. However, as of recent, he seemed to be delaying the project, waiting for one more top retainer... Sakon Shima.
* Considers Mori Motonari as a worthy opponent.
* Dian Wei despite being a bit close with Hideyoshi, tends to upset him when he feels he needs to change for the better. Hideyoshi retorts by saying his rule is much more guaranteed than Cao Cao's of all people.
* Surprisingly enough, he gets confused with either [[Pantheon/FamilyAndRelatives Piccolo]] or [[Pantheon/PrideAndEgotism Vegeta]], due to having them a [[Creator/ChristopherSabat same voice]].
** Speaking of similar voices, Hideyoshi was once found in heated combat with [[Pantheon/TimePlacement Garland]]. While Toyotomi was as focused as ever in a fight, Garland could be heard commenting [[BloodKnight just how entertaining the fight was.]]
** On the other side of the pacific, Hideyoshi has been constantly [[Creator/RyotaroOkiayu mistaken]] for [[Pantheon/{{Anger}} Terra]], or four other portrayals from Koei being [[VideoGame/DynastyWarriors Sima Yi, Sima Shi]], [[VideoGame/WarriorsOrochi Demon/Serpent King Orochi]] and even [[VideoGame/SamuraiWarriors Chosokabe]] [[Pantheon/RidingAndControl Motochika]] of all people.
* Hideyoshi has learned somewhere from his 'origin' that had he succeeded unifying the Land of the Rising Sun, he would've continued to expand the borders into the land called 'Korea' through a bloody campaign... although it ended with the 'origin' failing. Hideyoshi claims that if he would have his current army, he would've succeeded in his 'origin''s stead.
** [[VideoGame/AgeOfEmpiresII He eventually gave it a shot]], but was driven back by Yi Sun-Shin and his secret weapons: turtle ships and summoning forth several deities sworn to defend Korea (such as [[VideoGame/FatalFury Kim Kaphwan]]). Hideyoshi had no choice but to admit that Yi was [[WorthyOpponent was pretty impressive]] to hold off his army, but Hideyoshi was holding back because [[VideoGame/SengokuBasara he did not go down there himself and started tossing the Korean soldiers like rag dolls]]. He told the Korean leader to enjoy their victory while it lasted.
* He also learned how in another timeline [[VideoGame/{{Onimusha}} he was kind of a weasel that submitted to the power of Genma]]. Hideyoshi is ''[[OldShame not amused]]'' and [[EvenEvilHasStandards swore that he will bury that image with his fist, and the Genma along with it]]. And so, when Fortinbras came to offer him strength again, Hideyoshi had a violent battle and ended up throwing Fortinbras out of his house and gave a law that all who fights under the Toyotomi banner must NEVER succumb to Genma influence, or else they get splattered with his fist.
* Lately Hideyoshi has been having a certain fit of headaches that required him to rest, which would result him dreaming on fighting [[VideoGame/SamuraiWarriors a certain man who claimed to be himself, wielding a sansetsukon while looking more monkey-like]], and claims that he's nothing but a tyrant, and a ruler should strive to make a land where the people can be happy. Hideyoshi usually rebuked that he'd rather have his people strong than happy, and the fact that this alternate Hideyoshi still had his Nene makes him a weakling unworthy of the throne (he killed his Nene to prove his commitment to power). But the battle never concluded because Hideyoshi always woke up mid-battle.
** However, after seeing what kind of work he's done to Mitsunari's personality, the staff-wielding Hideyoshi is more determined than ever to bring down the gorilla man. He also fears while he's already launched his historical-self's "infamous Korean Campaign" again with the same ill success as with his historical counterpart, he may try it again; now that he's returned from his death by Ieyasu's hands, staff-wielding-Hideyoshi is having none of that.
*** Due to more recent visions, he deems the 'fat-gentleman Ieyasu', 'ambiguously-evil Nobunaga' and several others who'd outright oppose his power as even more threats on his plate, as they are the same ones who'd go against him only double due to being alternate incarnations...a rivalry he hopes will come to blows sooner rather then later. He is also more jealous than ever of the "monkey-man's" friendship with Saika Magoichi, a famous name of certain individuals of a clan he never got along with.
*** Recently, gorilla-Hideyoshi seems to be winning an argument against monkey-Hideyoshi in that since they are the [[UsefulNotes/ToyotomiHideyoshi same person]], then what they do is no different; there appears to be another timeline of monkey-Hideyoshi ending up just as cold-and-cruel just to enforce peace, only to break down in despair of what he's done when faced at a weak moment. While the gorilla taunts away, the monkey admits this and is not afraid to say that both of them can change for the better.
*** Gorilla-Hideyoshi is also amused at the shamisen-version-Motochika's [[Creator/RyotaroOkiayu voice]]. It sounds JUST like his own, as mentioned before; but in Hideyoshi's case he's often the most baffled since the Motochika he remembers is a lot more rowdy and clearly is a pirate that needs to be subjugated in his eyes. However, both the anchor-pirate and the shamisen wielder have stated to him that they would defy the fate he would forcefully place upon them to the very end.
*** He's also recently met Nene (the ninja one), and he seems to feel a hint of wavering in front of her. Nene tried to convince him to change, but the gorilla man tried to kill her the same he did with his Nene after overpowering her in battle; Basara-Keiji and Koei-Hideyoshi came in on time, with the latter swearing to bring him to death, even if he'd [[HeroicSacrifice risk his own life in the process due to their lifelink]].

* Conflicting Opinion: [[Pantheon/TypesOfMadness AJ Lee]]
* Kitana is the princess of Edenia, daughter of King Jerrod and Queen Sindel and for the longest time one of Shao Kahn's personal and best assassins. She grew up believing he was his biological father, until the Mortal Kombat universe in Outworld made her realize he wasn't her real father but a conqueror who merged Outworld with her home realm of Edenia. Since then, Kitana has joined the Earthrealm warriors battled against the forces of whoever wanted to take over their realm, even gaining back control over Edenia. Given her being one of the signature fighters that use {{Combat Hand Fan}}s, Kitana was later granted godhood after being recommended by Liu Kang.
* While the Kitana here is a force of good, a different timeline had the same events play out differently. Her mother was revived and strenghtened with the soul of Shang Tsung, which caused the deaths of not only her but several other Earthrealm warriors. Said fighters also ended up becoming revenants thanks to Quan Chi, all of them serving both Quan Chi and Shinnok it their attempt at taking over Earthrealm and developing a hatred for Raiden. This version of Kitana even managed to become the Empress of the Netherrealm after Shinnok's with Liu Kang as Emperor while also being the default holder of the title. [[Videogame/MortalKombat11 Some timeline rifts]] resulted in the heroic Kitana appearing in the pantheon and defeating her revenant self to seek control of the temple and the title, earning her the right to be the representative of the trope.
** Speaking of her revenant self, she is not exactly proud of becoming the Empress of the Netherrealm after Shinnok's defeat and set to right the wrongs she committed in the pantheon, first by defeating Shao Kahn and becoming the new Kahn of Outworld, an action that caused the new Kitana to be showered by praise. She also kickstarted an attempt by the past versions of some of her friends to seize control of the temples of the pantheon from their revenants counterparts, especially Liu Kang and Kung Lao.
* It's no secret that she and Liu Kang have had eyes for [[ShipTease each other for a very long time]] but several circumstances have kept them from making it official. That all changed after [[spoiler:Kronika was defeated. With his newfound powers, Fire God Liu Kang chose Kitana as his partner in being the new Time Keepers and Kitana accepted being at his side.]] No one knows what they plan to do after that but she and Liu Kang have stated that they will let things play out naturally.
* Like many who became revenants, she had a falling out with Raiden, which later made her meet new mentors in the form of Thrall and Rachel Alucard. Things took a dark turn when her pantheon self became a revenant once more but the events of the [[Videogame/MortalKombat11 time merging]] caused Kitana to change for the better, as stated above. She and Raiden became allies once more and she still keeps in touch with both Thrall and Rachel as a form of gratitude for taking care of her. She is a bit closer to the latter given her [[Creator/MelaLee vocal resemblance to her best friend and confidant Jade]], acting as a sort of replacement until she eventually finds her place in the pantheon.
* The fact that her revenant self received visions where she would have saved Edenia if Raiden hadn't tampered with the timeline was a huge reason Kitana stayed a revenant unlike her other comrades. However, she later discovered that these visions where just a possible timeline of many and that Raiden is hardly to blame, but the Lich King Arthas Menethil is partly responsible for feeding this thoughts to Kitana, making her relation to others start to fall apart. After becoming Kahn of Outworld and finding out that she herself [[YouCantGoHomeAgain will never grew accustomed to Edenian culture after being raised for years in Outworld]], she decided to forego this vision and swore to take down Arthas. This in turn brought her a new ally in the form of Bolvar Fordragon, the other Lich King, since he too wanted to dethrone Arthas' position as the leader of the Scourge and Kitana believing he was the LesserOfTwoEvils, she agreed on Bolvar's terms.
* Doesn't like AJ Lee, despite the fact she once dressed as her in a Halloween match. This enmity originated for the fact that AJ Lee joined forces with Mileena. However, after a wonderful performance in [=WrestleMania=] with Paige to take out the Bella Twins, Kitana changed her perception of the Geek Goddess.
* There used to be a time where Kitana could turn into a rabbit and then [[KillerRabbit proceeded to devour her opponents]]. She hasn't displayed that ability for a long time but those who have witnessed her do that have compared it to the Killer Rabbit of Caerbannog, Kitana being surprised that such a creature even existed but she isn't exactly flattered by the comparison.
* While being of RoyalBlood, Kitana doesn't feel like one herself, mostly thanks to the years she's been raised as a trained assassin under Shao Kahn. She did however end up meeting a few princesses in the House of Pantheon/{{Royalty}} that were curious about her position as Outworld's Kahn and wondering if it had anything to do with being a Queen. She first met Princesses Peach and Zelda, who welcomed Kitana and showed her the ins and outs of the Royalty house while sharing their respective histories with Bowser and Ganondorf, which Kitana found no different from Shao Kahn.
** She also came accross someone who at first she thought was another clone of her [[Creator/KariWahlgren thanks to a similar sounding voice]] (To give her credit, she grew a bit paranoid after Mileena was created) but it turned out to be King Artoria Pendragon. Both shared the same desire for justice and a just rule for their people, while bonding over their shared affection over another person. While Artoria thinks she wasn't the best ruler of Camelot, Kitana believes she has done her best.
* Naturally hates and despises conquerors and {{Evil Overlord}}s, Shao Kahn being chief among them. Her "father" tried to give her a warm welcome by trying to bash her skull the moment she stepped a foot in the pantheon but thankfully he was stopped before doing so. He is still sore about being defeated by Sindel's ungrateful daughter and is plotting to take the throne of Kahn back, whatever means necessary.
** Emperor Palpatine is another one on Kitana's kill list, as his rule on TheEmpire has been comparable or arguably worse that Shao Kahn's rule on Outworld. To that end she tried to form an alliance with his opposition, finding common ground with Leia Organa and establishing an alliance between the rebels and Kitana's Outworld army.
* [[Videogame/MortalKombatVsDCUniverse Kitana was one of several who found themselves involved in a merging of realms]], meeting several heroes and villains of the DC Universe along the way. During said time she ended up meeting Superman and Wonder Woman, who she came to admire given their dedication towards justice. On that note, Darkseid is another EvilOverlord she seeks to take down, not only for what he represents but also because he fused with her father during said events and tried to take over the combined realms.
** Then she ended up hearing about the [[Videogame/InjusticeGodsAmongUs alternate universe]] where Superman became a tyrant and she was distraught to learn that one of her allies could fall so low, reminding Kitana of her revenant self but nonetheless she has no pity for Regime Superman . From that universe she also heard about Starfire, a tamaran princess who lost her home planet and [[Creator/KariWahlgren sounded a lot like her]] and befriended her after bonding over their similar backgrounds.
* She is a bit apprehensive of clones, considering her relationship with Mileena. Even if she is just an EvilKnockoff of her with a [[ButterFace less than gracious face]], deep down she does care a bit about Mileena, in some timelines even willing to forgive her and offer her sister to join her. Following Mileena's death at the hands of D'Vorah, Kitana keeps one of her sais as a memento, possibly as a TragicKeepsake. That said, Mileena still wants to outdo her sister in any way she can.
* As the divine holder of the CombatHandFan, she does like to train those who want to use them for kombat. However, given her LadyOfWar fighting style, she favours more graceful warriors and that's why she likes to spar with Mai Shiranui and Yukiko Amagi.
* ''"You will learn respect!"''

* Admires: [[Pantheon/VillainousArchetypes Barbatos Goetia]]
* Many are known for using all sorts of weapons, especially in the House of Weapons. Only one can make such deadly use out of mundane weaponry. That distinction belongs to Bulleye. The assassin ascended after winning a sharpshooting contest in the House of Pantheon/{{School}}, by using nothing but pens and playing cards. The GUAE sees him as a highly prized asset to eliminate targets.
** No one else has suffered from him as much as Daredevil. It all started from the beginning when he offed Elektra and went on a rampage from there, killing Karen Page and even impersonating as the Man Without Fear for a while. Matt managed to deal sweet revenge when ''he'' impersonated Bulleye, leading to a battle of the ages.
** He's not [[SarcasmMode happy]] at seeing Elektra in the Pantheon. When the two first met in Weapons, it destroyed the much of the House. Daredevil later came by to break up the fight. Things are more or less at an impasse right now. Elektra has gotten stronger, but is hesitant to fight a guy like him with so many weapons at his disposal.
* Also enjoys tormenting Daredevil allie Black Widow and almost killed her a number of times. She may have advanced tech at her side, but Bulleye's unpredictability has proven too much to overcome.
* Was part of Norman Osborn's band of supervillains posing as heroes during ComicBook/DarkReign. To him, it was a joyous occasion where he got to kill anyone with impunity.
* His foray into the Dark Avengers pissed off Clint to no end. Angered at Lester for taking the Hawkeye gimmick from him, he made his ''own'' costume called Ronin to challenge him. It didn't end well for Clint, especially without his arrows. The two share an animosity ever since.
* Was also hired by Mysterio for a time. While it seems to be no big deal, that job was the one that got him to kill Karen Page, Daredevil's long-time love interest. To that he is eternally grateful to Mysterio for giving him the opportunity.
* Had a memorable showdown against Deadpool during his Dark Avengers gig. He thought that the Merc with a Mouth had no chance now that he has ''actual'' weapons, but Wade stymied his efforts to kill him every time. Deadpool makes sure to tell the story on how he avoided death that day, to Bullseye's chagrin. With that said, he admits enjoying the hunt and the fact that Deadpool can come back wanting for more. He even attended the merc's funeral.
* Has awaited a showdown with the Batman, a man he believes he can defeat. While the superhero is notorious for his [[CrazyPrepared prep time]], Bullseye thinks he could ambush Batman in an advantageous position with lots of deadly toys.
* Is at an eternal battle with Jackie Chan over the use of weapons. Jackie may well be the only other person in the Pantheon who knows how to use any weapon at his disposal as well as Lester. Bullseye saw an even match when the two fought. The battle used every weapon available in the House of Weapons. Just when it looked like Bullseye would win, Jackie brought out the dreaded ladder. The match ended under a minute after that. Reeling from the loss, Bullseye seeks revenge, first by mastering the use of the ladder.
* His ability of killing {{Love Interest}}s have gained favor of the likes of Tsukuyomi and Kotonoha. He is welcome at both their temples at any time.
* His greatest foe may not be Daredevil at all... but the credibility of his kills. Lester's rage for the Mythbusters is only rivals by that of Daredevil. He laments at every potential kill weapon that was deemed unrealistic, neutering his effectiveness. Even when the show has ended, he swore to give the two and their heralds gruesome deaths. With that said, the Mythbusters have planted many traps around their temple to keep the assassin at bay.
* Sees Barbatos Goetia's word as the gospel as Bullseye hopes to have the same dreaded reputation as a HeroKiller. While he has killed a number of D-tier heroes and villains and amassed a frightening reputation, he has yet to claim the coveted status.
* Wishes he could stick around with Gauron long enough for them to become friends. But Gauron has proven to be too psychotic even for him for extended periods of times. His best chance of a teamup is when they are both after the same target. Once the job is done or if they fail, the two part ways.

* EvilCounterpart of: [[Pantheon/{{Thieves}} Sly Cooper]]
* OddFriendship: [[Pantheon/{{Popularity}} The Shredder]]
* It was believed that Roman Torchwick was supplying weaponry from the mortal plane to the GUAE through Sundowner. Shawn Spencer was asked if he could use his (fake) psychic powers to lend a hand in an investigation. Turned out Roman was involved, and was put on trial before the Court of Gods. A testimony from Team RWBY (particularly Ruby Rose and Blake Belladonna) acted as the final nail and put Roman under the watch of the GUAG.
** However, Sundowner saw fit to pull some strings with Senator Armstrong's political influence and get Roman put into the House of Weapons and made an official part of the GUAE. Of course, this clearly upset Team RWBY and they are making sure to keep an eye out for whatever Torchwick is up to.
* Roman generally doesn't like a lot of other criminals, but will work with them when it suits his interest, hence enabling Sundowner's war profiteering. He also has made a deal with various War criminals and terrorists and sells them the stolen dust that his gang got from Remnant and is currently held in his temple.
** He also partnered himself with fellow arms dealer Gray Mann. The old man got instantly hooked in the value of Remnant dust and the potential weapons that could be created out of it and instantly hired Torchwick for the job. Roman isn't very thrilled about all of this but he was promised a good check if he complied.
** Another ArmsDealer worth mentioning would be Marcus Kincaid, who stands as Roman's biggest business rival in the pantheon. The two don't really mind each other's activities, but when it comes to Weapon trafficking, [[SeriousBusiness things get serious]].
* He's tried to buy some Platinum Mechs off Varrick, though the latter grew a conscience and elected not to do business with Roman. The two have formed a resentment of each other as a result.
* Some gods mistake him for Alex Delarge from a distance and Roman actually likes the spirit of the guy, saying he would make the perfect right hand for him. He even handed him a customized cane.
* Once was challenged for his title by none other than Sly Cooper, with the Racoon believing that Torchwick was no match for his fighting prowess. He actually understimated Torchwick's fighting capabilities and was forced to retreat. Despite being criminals, both Torchwick and Cooper can't stand seeing each other.
** Speaking of other cane fighters, he was surprised by the ability of Ripper Roo's cane to create explosives and believes it could be the perfect weapon for him. He's planning to steal it from the kangaroo.
* Roman has seen [[Pantheon/{{Heirs}} Princess Peach]] using a parasol in combat, and was reminded of the weapon of his henchwoman, Neo. Although he thinks that Peach lacks the style and finesse of Neo.
** But later came across [[Pantheon/PersonalAppearance Nui Harime]], who would easily pass as her creepy twin sister who can actually speak. He likes to hang out with Nui and considers working with her but her [[Pantheon/{{Betrayal}} Boss]] doesn't really trust a goon like him and he isn't interested in the whole Life fibers bussiness.
* He gets along surprisingly well with The Shredder, given that after their initial appearance, [[BreakoutVillain they became popular enough to reappear again]].
* Felicia recently employed his services into increasing the power of her gang. Roman noticed how similar her criminal actions were to his own boss not to mention [[MsFanservice the outfits they wear]].
* Rumors say that [[spoiler:he actually died, eaten alive by a Grimm who caught him by surprise, according to what Ruby witnessed. [[HesJustHiding Others say he actually is hiding somewhere else and is plotting his return]]. [[Blog/RWBYRecaps And a third group say that he was captured and sent to prison again]], [[http://66.media.tumblr.com/d6d815fc895cab12bb6c1dfcf6599b22/tumblr_inline_o315wpWZQi1rltz3k_1280.png forever.]]]]
** Even then, [[spoiler:he is actually is glad that his death means he no longer holds loyalty towards Cinder and he is free to do whatever he wants. Although he really missed Remnant.]]
** Though he was surprised that another deity from Remnant also perished the same day he did, [[spoiler:Pyrrha Nikos. While they really don't like each other, at least they joke about their being [[MemeticMutation cursed because of their hair color.]]]]
* For reasons relating to [[spoiler:his mortal demise]], he gets bursts of irrational hatred when he sees a griffon in his sights. The representative Goddess, Gilda, isn't at all amused with this animosity.
** For another similar reason, he also despises the hell out of Monstro, [[spoiler:being SwallowedWhole is not fun at all]].
** The fact that [[spoiler:the trigger of Roman's death was extreme negativity in the form of anger and grief that attracted the Grimm]] caused [[Pantheon/CombatMagic Aqua]] to compare him to [[Pantheon/{{Family}} Lady Tremaine]], [[spoiler:who also suffered a KarmicDeath from a monster attracted to negative emotions (in her case, hatred)]].
* Has, to the surprise of many, joined his enemies in a time of mourning for [[Creator/MontyOum their creator's]] [[DiedDuringProduction passing]]. When asked why, he just goes, "What, [[EvenEvilHasStandards I'm not allowed to grieve?]] I have feelings too, you know." Roman has since paid his respects at [[Pantheon/{{Workmanship}} his shrine]] as well.
* Locus came to his attention due to his "professional" attitudes and having a somewhat similar voice to Roman, leading him to consider hiring the space pirate for a job. [[spoiler:Given Locus has since [[HeelFaceTurn left his immoral ways]], a disappointed Roman was forced to abandon the idea]].
* Along with his herald Neo, Roman is attempting some shady endeavours in his off time, such as ice cream that is [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial most definitely not poison]], energy drinks that might be biochemical hazards, badly made motorcycles and attorneys specialized in faulty businesses.
** He was very pleased to see Neo ascend into Pantheon, further increasing his network of allies. And though her, he would also meet Hazama and Hilda. Both Roman and Hazama feel a sense of kinship between them, leading to two to become fast allies. Hazama even offered to help out expanding his trade. Hilda initially offered to have him join Amnesia, but Roman politely declined. Not one to miss out on a potential ally (both of them), they still do business and aid one another when needed.
* Once he heard news of the ascension of [[Pantheon/OtherWeaponTropes Adam Taurus]], the two formed an alliance. However, despite their shared hatred of team RWBY, Roman is wary of Adam's true intention, remembering Adam's extremist views towards humans like himself. But for now, they have a common enemy.

* Banned from: The House of Pantheon/ChildhoodAndAdolescence
* Opposed by/Opposes: The rest of the House of Pantheon/{{Crime}}
* The quality of life between a Nest and the Backstreets couldn’t be any more different than night and day. Whereas in a Nest you live under one of the many different [[MegaCorp Wings]] and have to work so as to not get booted out your future is, at the very least, secure as befitting the status of someone in the upper echelons of society. The Backstreets, however, is a different matter. These densely spread-out alleyways and shantytowns house all sorts of people looking to make a living. While these parts of the City are ruled by [[TheSyndicate the Hand of the Backstreets]] alongside lesser Syndicates, Fixers, and local neighborhood watches crime is still rampant as expected of a universe where HiredGuns is as common as common can be.
** Bad as it is, though, the Backstreets are at their very worst when a “Night in the Backstreets” falls. Running from 3:13 to 4:34 AM in this time period all crimes, no matter how savage or vile, are permitted, and taking evidence and trying to investigate whatever happened there will earn you a one-way ticket to hell courtesy of a [[HumanoidAbomination Claw]]. It’s here metallic figures wielding hooks known as Sweepers crawl out of the woodwork to sweep the streets of human trash and any proof that transpired within that time. Like the winds of a hurricane, they’ll tear through anyone unlucky enough to cross their path, and anyone with some sense of self-preservation knows to turn back immediately after seeing their piercing red gaze from the shadows.
* The Sweepers made their name known in the House of Pantheon/{{Crime}} after a family of them crawled up from nowhere and consumed anyone who was out way too late at night for one reason or another. They were quite surprised to find that they were not in the City anymore after having exterminated quite a number of lesser gangs in the House. Due to having disrupted the hierarchy’s intricately connected web it didn’t take long for the House’s authority to try and uproot the threat of them before the problem festered and their combined might allowed them to succeed in doing this... for about two weeks. Then the Sweepers came back with a vengeance after the initial attack by setting up dens in not only that House but also various other Houses as though nothing happened.
* To the uninitiated, the Sweepers are just a bunch of mindless predators that stalk the night. People who think this way don’t last very long for this kind of ignorance gets you hacked apart by Sweepers. It’s said that their biggest strength is organizational power being able to hunt in packs and coordinate their movement even in the labyrinthine Backstreet’s alleyways. In fact, they even have a proper language consisting of a string of numbers and upon translation (assuming it isn’t amateurish) they’re actually quite talkative, eloquent, and [[AffablyEvil polite]]. The last point is especially prominent with how Sweepers care for each other, including the Mother that lead their families. In fact, they actually ascended themselves when the first family responsible for the initial attack told their neighbors of the Pantheon leading to them moving in and their Mother finalized the decision. And speaking of, they’re vocal on how truly foreign the Pantheon is to them such as for example being able to hold actual coherent conversations with people or the ubiquity of firearms as from their world they’re, for a number of different reasons, [[GunsAreWorthless impractical against actually competent opponents]].
* The technology to be turned into a Sweeper is patented by [[ShadowDictator the Heads of the World]], who leads the rest of the Wings and serves as the governing body of the City. Between the Head’s general cruelty, the existence of the Night in the Backstreets, and the name “Sweepers”, it doesn’t take very long to realize they exist to further cull the population of human trash. Due to this, some gods have gone on to accuse the many dictators in the Pantheon of having a hand in their ascension although if one by chance asks a Sweeper personally they claim that such points are baseless: While not necessarily the Head’s direct underlings, they answer only to them and them alone.
* As a result of the aforementioned attack, they’re largely unpopular with many of the House of Crime’s residents and have bolstered their forces in case of future attacks at night, at least when concerning their operations. Apparently, Sweepers have the decency to leave the more residential areas alone for that is a Taboo of the City, something that can’t be broken even with the Night of the Backstreets in play. While some have taken to adapt to it by having the Sweepers serve as an incentive to not continually fail your superiors, there have been those who have pushed back against the Sweepers encroaching on their grounds and giving a reality check on their dominance in the night. The vigilante speedster Godspeed easily executed quite a number of Sweeper dens after one family tried pushing onto the House’s red-light district. Gunvolt, after looking into some disappearances for an ally of his, also cut down on their numbers upon finding out it was their doing. As far as more organized crime goes, they’ve also been hard by the 3rd Street Saints’ Leader as well as Bucciarati’s Gang when their numbers started to grow once more. Giorno and Bucciarati are especially appalled at the fact they literally exist to KillThePoor and other undesirables.
* Cybernetics and body augmentation is a common procedure within the City, and the Sweepers fall under the more extreme side of it. Essentially, they’re liquid flesh encased and held together by the dark metal suit. If they run out, they die. To survive, they use their large red hooks to dig into people and liquify them to refuel themselves. This, combined with their persistence to where they can [[AutoRevive reportedly revive themselves]], makes them tough to put down. Luckily, they mainly move at night unless prompted by the Head or other special circumstances.
* Screwed up as the City is, cannibalism is still seen as repulsive though this hasn’t stopped the practice as evidenced by the existence of multiple cannibal syndicates and other such butchers. In fact, the Backstreets of District 23 is the worst offender compared to everywhere else with groups such as The Eight Chefs seeking to pursue the ultimate flavor by any means necessary. With that said, sharing the same taste doesn’t necessarily make one friends with the Sweepers as shown with the dispute between the ones in Nest L and strange, cannibalistic tailors The Carnival. The former even describes the latter as “despicable filth”. The trend runs true in the Pantheon as they clash with other maneaters like those in Pantheon/FleshEaters and are defensive of the territory they control in the House of Pantheon/{{Slaughter}}. Even Hannibal Lecter, while noting their manners, knows it is more trouble than it is worth to try and deal with them.
* While alliances aren’t that common for Sweepers some families have started working with Specimen 11. Sometimes, groups of their own can be seen accompanying the Food Demon, an unfortunate sight to anyone being chased down by it. Whether they’re under the spell of its “beef” or they simply took the advantageous opportunity to dine with their families easier no one can really say but it’s a fearsome sight nonetheless. While still on the topic of alliances there have reports of Dark Brotherhood members conversing with Sweepers after delivering some of their kills to them, most likely to dispose of their trace should it be requested. Consider it as a testament to how far-reaching the Dark Brotherhood’s influence goes behind the scenes to have some sort of agreement with monstrous cannibals like them.
* Given their rising presence in the Pantheon, some of those in the Allies’ forces had assumed the Sweepers were apart of the Nazis, like some variant of the Nazi Storm Elites. They’re not and are otherwise completely unrelated[[note]]must have been thinking of [[Film/FrankensteinsArmy something else]][[/note]]. They only really get to fight them in urban areas, but that doesn’t make them any less dangerous despite to come across despite only wielding large hooks. Lt. Randall and Sgt. Bill Taylor, as well as Waffen Storm Leaders and Storm Elites, can attest to this being the first to encounter them. Cpl. Boyd Travers is reminded of the times he faced gas mask-wearing enemies in urban warfare such as the aforementioned Storm Elite. While he’s mainly preoccupied with the Nazi war machine, he doesn’t tolerate the Sweepers trying to feast upon his comrades.
* Implacable, numerous, decked out in full cybernetic bodies, and very much organized, there’s little wonder as to why they’re universally feared. [[WouldHurtAChild Children probably have the biggest reason to fear them out of everyone]]. Either they kill them like they do with everyone else or “accompany” them, which is a nice term for a Sweeper kidnapping them and turning them into another Sweeper where they would be nurtured by their Mother. Due to this, the Sweepers were added to the ever-expanding list of deities barred from the House of Pantheon/ChildhoodAndAdolescence as if it wasn’t big enough already. With all the security and surveillance Sweepers don’t even bother approaching the House to begin with as they’re more comfortable on the outskirts between the different houses. Still, you could never be too careful.
** Some believe that the Sweepers share some solidarity with other deities who go after children. While a reasonable enough assumption on paper, the truth is that no such unity is a given just because of that. Sweepers do have their own families which would, after all, include children as well dubious context behind their conception aside. They view with 456 Ambassador, the Coachman, and SCP-993 with the same amount of disdain as anyone else and warn the younger members of their depravity. The hatred for the latter is quite strange since him teaching young Sweepers about cannibalism and murder… wouldn’t really change much. Though, perhaps they’re wary of the clown poisoning their values of love and family that is present in all Sweepers.

* Enemies: [[Pantheon/{{Villains}} The]] [[Pantheon/PersonalAppearance Penguin]], ''any one who would sexually harass or harm Hibari''
* Former Enemies: The members of Crimson Squad and students of Hebijo and Gessen Academy
* Originally the position of goddess of Umbrellas was held by [[Franchise/TouhouProject Kogasa Tatara]] before one day Yagyuu challenged her into a battle for the position. Yagyuu showed a much better demonstration in fighting with an umbrella, causing Kogasa lose her position and have her be the new goddess of Umbrellas. As Kogasa was able to get a new, more favourable position for her after that, they don't have any hard feelings forwards eachother.
* Has been trying to advance her summoning technique in order to summon [[Pantheon/{{Beast}} The Kraken]] if all possible. She has been unable to do it so far, but she is getting there.
** Because of her "relation" with the Kraken, she somehow got involved with [[Manga/SquidGirl Ika Musume]]. Where she doesn't think she is the best person to hang around (especially due of her "world conquest" plan), she doesn't really hate her and hangs with her sometimes, even if she is making sure that Ika doesn't actually succeed with her plans. Ika also has a little bit of fear forwards her because of her favourite food being ''dried squid''.
* Whatever you do, ''[[BerserkButton do not harm Hibari, her most precious friend!]]'' She will rush to protect her if she is threatened and if something ends up happen to her, [[TheBerserker she will make sure the person will pay.]]
** When she was questioned for her overprotective nature, she stated that [[spoiler:Hibari is the [[ReplacementGoldfish closest thing she has]] to her now deceased sister. She protects her because she not only doesn't want to essentially lose her sister again, but because [[HatesBeingAlone she doesn't want to wind up being alone again]].]]
* [[spoiler:Due of a creature bearing a similar name what existed in her universe, she opposes Orochi. Even if the Orochi she knows is a "woman" ([[EldritchAbomination if you can even give a gender to it]]).]]
* Once lend her costume to [[VideoGame/DeadOrALive Ayane]]. They are on good relation with each other, [[spoiler:even if Ayane decided to go uninvited to "Kagura Thousand-Year Festival]].
* Knows that [[Franchise/{{Batman}} The Penguin]] has planned to take this position away from Kogasa, and she is ready to fight him if he tries to do anything.
* Has grown an interesting relation with [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIII Fang]] because both of them being really protective forwards girls they hold dear, will do anything to keep them save, but not being in "lovers" relation with them.
* Was extremely glad when she heard that Hibari managed to ascend into the Pantheon with her help. She hangs with her a lot, though she does understand that she should give her some free time for herself.
** Naturally, she was glad that rest of her team was eventually ascend into the Pantheon together.
* She gets fairly well with [[Pantheon/DeathArchetypes Mami Tomoe]]. [[Creator/KaoriMizuhashi Two guesses why.]]
** And through Mami's introduction has also started taking lessons from [[Film/OnceUponATimeInChina Wong Fei-Hung]], specifically to improve her already formidable skill in umbrella combat.

* Admires: ''[[Pantheon/FearsomeArchetypes H.P. Lovecraft]]''
* Ascended with Nyarko, who practically dragged him in. There was no way she would ascend without her sweetheart. She even endured his forks for it, though Mahiro might have not minded it ultimately.
* Aside of [[ManicPixieDreamGirl Nyarko]] (a.k.a. Nyarlathotep, The Crawling Chaos), he also has [[CampGay Hasta]] (a.k.a. Hastur, The Unspeakable One) and eventually [[IfItsYouItsOkay Cuuko]] (a.k.a. Cthugha, The Burning One) after his love in different ways. Oh, and there are other aliens who want him. They find him attractive for whatever reason.
* Do not underestimate his fork. The fork is the strongest weapon in the universe (or so he claims). After all, he can keep three Lovecraftian deities in check with one.
** Aside of stabbing people with it, he also has a good aim with them. He was once able to a triple 300 on a dartboard using forks, which even made [[Pantheon/{{Weapons}} Bullseye]] slightly impressed.
* He has gotten some help from people from House of Love, mainly Keima Katsuragi, to help him overcome his [[CannotSpitItOut inability to confess his feelings]]. He really doesn't like the help, especially if it involves Dating Sims. [[spoiler:He had enough of them after being stuck in one.]]
* Malign Franchise/CthulhuMythos around him at your own risk. He is a huge fan of those works and will stab the person who malign them with a fork. However, he hasn't gathered enough courage to talk to the man behind the writings himself, even though he has the chance to do so.
* He might seem normal, but he actually has one supernatural ability on him: [[spoiler:[[RippleEffectProofMemory the ability to not be affected by shifts on time-space continuum.]] ]] GUAG wishes to have him use this ability to assist them, due of him being rather low profile, but Mahiro himself doesn't like to be dragged into things like this. He can also resist the effects of [[YouCannotGraspTheTrueForm seeing creature's true form]] more easily, though whenever or not this is an actual ability or [[UnfazedEveryman he has simply gotten used to it]] is in question.
* Really only friends with Issei due the fact that he needed to be the voice of reason for Cuuko regarding the accident between the two of them. He doesn't hate him, but he doesn't talk to him that much.
* Sort of the ''de facto'' leader for [[Pantheon/GUAGSpecialLoversSquad Special Lovers Squad's]] "Love Interest" portion, but due the fact that its not even a proper group, it is just a silly title. Though it did make him befriend Almaz due of feeling like they aren't that different regarding their adventures and Gray due the fact that Nyarko and Juvia are rather similar.
* He is sort of confused on how many goddesses [[Creator/AyaHisakawa sound]] [[Creator/KikukoInoue like]] her mother, Yoriko, like [[Pantheon/LoveAndAffection Belldandy]].
* [[spoiler:Officially dropped the "[[UnwantedHarem Unwanted Love]]" part of his title after he himself kissed Nyarko in the lips after she said she loves him. And then he did it again. And then was sort of fine Nyarko kissing him the next day. The House of Love went "FINALLY!" in unison. Their only concern now is the fact that this development was due of Ato-ko so that she can break their relationship one day...]]
** [[spoiler:As it turns out, Mahiro did end up marrying Nyarko... and more or less losing his SAN Points right after the wedding. Fortunately for Mahiro, the two of them aren't married in the Pantheon due of some [[AdaptationDistillation adaption problems]] and only he remembers it, though he is considering that if he did decide on that, maybe he should make it official... while making sure he doesn't regret his decision this time.]]

* Opposed by: Gods who hates paparazzis, [[Pantheon/{{Heroism}} Leena Toros]], [[Pantheon/{{Family}} Homer Simpson]]
* Annoyed by: [[Pantheon/{{Gaming}} Dan Hibiki]]
* A student from Taiyo High which is working toward a career in journalism, she ascended in the Pantheon after getting a big scoop about the mysterious kidnapping of the students, and helping the Chainperson and Pacific High School students to find Kurow and his cronies.
** She was happy to see her classmate [[Pantheon/{{School}} Batsu]], as well as his rival Roy (which also helped her in one of her investigations) once again. Now it's just a matter of time for the other Taiyo High students (Hinata, Kyosuke and Chairperson), as well as her teacher Hayato ascend.
** Ran also met up with another students from her universe: [[Pantheon/{{Sports}} Natsu]] from Gorin High, [[Pantheon/{{Crime}} Daigo]] from Gedo High, as well as fellow students [[Pantheon/PersonalAppearance Yurika Kirishima and Momo Karuizawa]], her former enemies.
* Ran's skills with her camera are formidable, even though she still have to reload it a lot of times. She also fights with [[PaperFanOfDoom paper fans]] and [[ThrowTheBookAtThem books]]. Yeah, her combat style is that weird.
* One of her hobbies is to take photos of the Pantheon members and their domains. [[IntrepidReporter Which also includes evil ones, unsurprisingly.]] Unfortunately, there's some places that she can't go, given that even that she is now a goddess, she is still a human.
** Ran's amazing photography skills make her rivals with fellow photographers [[Pantheon/{{Profession}} Frank West]] (she was a follower of him previously) and [[Pantheon/{{Popularity}} Peter Parker]]. It's unknown if she knowns the latter's secret identity.
** She called the attention of [[Pantheon/{{Family}} Terra]] because one of her followers is her friend Edgar. And much like Ran, he fights with a lot of gadgets (Albeit not books or paper fans like she expected).
* During one of her big scoops, she met up with [[Pantheon/{{Personality}} The Saber Marionettes]]. One of them, Bloodberry, also happens to [[Creator/AkikoHiramatsu sounds like her]]. In retribuition, Ran take some photos of Bloodberry as well as the other marionettes.
** In another of her scoops, she interviews [[Pantheon/{{Heroism}} the Blitz Team]]. During the interviews, Leena noticed that Ran sounded similar to Harry's sister Mary Champ. Doesn't help that Ran also liked the Liger Zero, going so far as to calling the Liger Zero "my cute little snowflake" and taking some photos of him. Leena was not amused and tried to shoo her a lot of times.
** She also meet [[Pantheon/{{Heroism}} Van and Fiona]], thanks for the rumors that [[spoiler:Bit could or could not be their descendant]]. During the interview, she also noticed his Blade Liger, calling him "my cute little skyflake". Unlike Leena, Fiona seems to like Ran.
* When she was in a scoop in the House of War (don't ask why), she found [[Pantheon/MilitaryAndWarfare Ryoma]], thinking that he was her PE teacher Hayato Nekketsu. It doesn't help that he and Hayato look similar. Ran also have a similar problem with [[Pantheon/PersonalAppearance Haohmaru]].
** Went to the House of Weapons after discovering about a swordsman named Hayato, which she thinks that he is her PE teacher. Unfortunately for her, he was a different [[Pantheon/{{Weapons}} Hayato]]. On the other hand, Hayato's skill with his plasma sword is just as good as the Taiyo High PE Teacher's kendo skills. Also met up with his girlfriend [[Pantheon/PersonalAppearance June]], and take some photos of the her gymnastic skills.
** Going to the House of Sports, she interviewed [[Pantheon/{{Sports}} Uzu Sanageyama]] about his kendo skills. During the interviews, Ran noticed that Sanageyama [[Creator/NobuyukiHiyama sounded similar]] to her classmate Batsu. Well, speaking of him, he once had a fight with [[Pantheon/{{Costumes}} Ryuko]], motivating Ran to interview the rebellious female student.
* Ran has a great admiration for [[Pantheon/{{Costumes}} Athena Asamiya]], given that she remind her of the Chainperson, likely in appearance. In fact, she wishes one day take some photos of Athena in an official concert.
* Plans to create a group of jornalism in a distant future.
* [[Pantheon/{{Family}} Homer Simpson]] is not found of her, given that every time that he does something funny or weird, she always take some photos of him, not helped by the fact that some of the photos are also titled "Local Man Ruins Everything". It's a RunningGag in the Pantheon.
* No relation to [[Pantheon/{{Gaming}} Dan Hibiki]], although there's rumors and speculations that Ran is his sister. Ran also recognizes Dan's fighting style, the Saikyo-ryu, which is the same style of the Chainperson of Taiyo High.
** While Ran is most annoyed by Dan, she at least have a good view of his friend [[Pantheon/{{Popularity}} Sakura]]. That's because Ran recognized her as one of the students of Tamagawa Minami High School.
** Confused [[Pantheon/{{Costumes}} Ibuki]] with one of her classmates given that Ibuki's school outfit is similar of a Taiyo High student one. She didn't care, but liked the remark.
** Of course, Ran also noticed that [[Pantheon/{{Combat}} Ryu]] and [[Pantheon/{{Gaming}} Ken's]] fighting style is reminiscent of Hideo Shimazu, a teacher in Justice High. She didn't lose time and interviewed those two.
