| 25 | * Opposes: Excessively violent heroes. |
| 26 | * WorthyOpponent: '''[[Pantheon/HeroicArchetypes Saitama]]''' |
| 27 | * Complicated Relationships: The House of Pantheon/{{Prophecy}} (Especially the Prophets) |
| 28 | * Lord Boros was an Alien leader of a group of intergalactic invaders that dedicated themeselves to invade planets until one day, a Prophet foretold that Boros could find someone who could match him in strenght in planet Earth and he immediately departed there in hopes of finding said person. To put it short, he wasn't dissapointed in what he found. |
| 29 | ** To say that he managed to survive more than one punch from Saitama and even managed to give him some resemblance of a Fight is what surprised many people. This was one of the reasons why he was ascended not long after he was defeated. |
| 30 | * The first thing he did after ascending is confronting the one person that managed to defeat him, Saitama. He declared in front of the Hero that he will train hard enough to go beyond his limit and then challenge him for the Rematch. While Saitama wasn't fazed at all, he secretly looks forward to the Alien's training results and see if he can keep his word. And there are many gods worried of what would happen if these two cross paths again. |
| 31 | * After hearing about Boros, Frieza decided to confront him personally to see if he was as strong as he was rumored to be. It wasn't surprising that Boros was [[SlasherSmile gleefully smiling]] after hearing that there was [[BloodKnight another being strong enough to oppose him]] and the resulting battle left neither emperor disappointed. To the surprise and eventual horror to everybody, both intergalactic lords became best buddies. |
| 32 | ** To top it off, Boros started to take sparring matches with Frieza on his spare time after hearing that the former attained a powerful form after a short amount of time. Worse, he plans to test his new found skills on Frieza's arch-nemeses, the Saiyans, after hearing of their immense combat potential. Looks like defeat wasn't so bitter after all for Boros... |
| 33 | * Altough he has clarified that his [[HealingFactor Regenerating Power]] is what allowed him to Shrug off some of Saitama's powerful punches, many theorize he actually has the [[https://i.imgur.com/mrHIv8g.png Sturdy ability]]. |
| 34 | * Another person that caught his attention was the Swordman Sephiroth, especially because they [[Creator/ToshiyukiMorikawa both sound suspiciously similar]] and have [[OneWingedAngel Powerful forms that they only unleashed]] as a trump card. This also didn't sit well with Cloud and the latter has been careful of the Alien lord ever since. |
| 35 | * He is planning to form another intergalactic group because sadly the last one were all killed. One of the first people that joined him was the Space Pirate Ridley, because the Dragon was impressed that there was another Creature as durable as he is. This pleases Boros greatly. |
| 36 | ** This alliance has brought the ire of many people who have fought aliens before and it is possible that a new organization may be formed to counter whatever Boros has in store. |
| 37 | * He gets along surprisingly well with One-eyed deities like Mother Brain or Gigan, who are aliens that also invaded planets for their own cause. He also is in good terms with the Yellow devil even though he isn't an alien, as he reminds him of one of his top lieutenants who fought on Earth. |
| 38 | * He hates heroes who show no mercy toward their enemies, as he found out that the surviving Crew that came to earth with him was executed by KnightTemplar Hero by the name of Sweet Mask. People like [[Pantheon/HeroicActions Killia]], [[Pantheon/MurderAndAssassination Kenshiro]] or [[Pantheon/NarrativeTone Shadow the Hedgehog]] are what makes him get instantly angry. |
| 39 | * He isn't very fond of the Pantheon/{{Prophecy}} house, since although the Prophecy he was told was right at the end, he felt very disappointed that he couldn't give a challenge to Saitama. He has stated that Prophecies became a very touchy subject for him and he wouldn't mind getting rid of that house, which has left most of its members worried. |
| 40 | * Also present in the House of [[Pantheon/DefensivePowers Power]]. |

| 58 | * Esteemed Colleagues: [[Pantheon/GameCharacters Solaire of Astora]] |
| 59 | * After ascension Karna became [[TheDreaded one of the most feared gods in the Pantheon]] with his reputation of his combat skill, destructive weaponry, invincibility, and God-killing spear. He now has a few gods gunning after him, planning to eliminate these factors so he won't be a threat in the future. Quite a nice guy though, even if he can come off as a bit of [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold a dick]]. |
| 60 | * Despite being a Good aligned god (and being a contender for the nicest god in the whole pantheon) he has a real habit of working with Evil aligned deities with [[UndyingLoyalty extreme, unquestioning loyalty]]. |
| 61 | * Archer and Gilgamesh have personally met and worked with Karna before, and each of them has some renown for actually defeating him (albeit when Karna was in a weakened state). Despite this (as well as the fact that they saved his previous Master), Karna doesn't get along too well with either of them; Archer's bitterness over his life as a Counter Guardian prevents him from seeing eye-to-eye with Karna and his UndyingLoyalty towards his evil masters, while Gilgamesh isn't too pleased that someone has the potential to defeat him at full power, although both does think of each other as a WorthyOpponent. |
| 62 | * As far as [[MemeticMutation the rumor]] say, Karna is said to reverse the misfortunes of the likes of Cu Chulainn, from 'Being Lancer is suffering' into 'Being Lancer is wonderful'. But even Karna had to protest on that one: True, he really got what he wanted and had great powerful things in his disposal, but most of the time, his Masters tended to be either very underhanded or dishonorable. He could tank it himself, since that's what he is, but if given to others? He wouldn't recommend it, out of pity. |
| 63 | * [[Pantheon/{{Vampires}} Dracula]] doesn't like him, due to Karna [[Literature/FateApocrypha utterly humiliating the vampire during an alternate Holy Grail War]], even if he wasn't using his vampire abilities. Karna's response is simply IDidWhatIHadToDo. |
| 64 | * With the curse over his techniques finally lapsing, Karna now has the ability to cast his Astras without worrying about them failing at a critical moment. After some time getting back the hang of using them, he can now cast them by sight alone, the stronger ones taking the form of EyeBeams. |
| 65 | -->''Weapons and arts are but an opening act. True heroes kill with their eyes.'' |
| 66 | * Found some common ground with Superman and Amaterasu as they are honorable and righteous people with solar powers. The Man of Steel and the Goddess of the Sun had pitied Karna for being on the wrong side and now hope his new life in the Pantheon will treat him better than the past one did. Though Karna did inquire at one point if Amaterasu has been using alter egos called "Tamamo-no-Mae", since that's within his knowledge so far. He got no answer. |
| 67 | * Several other deities has promised him good karma once he finished his run. Karna simply said 'Just keep it, I do not deserve it.', which caused other Gods, especially Ganesha, think that he deserved even more later for his humility and life without demands. He even wondered if it can make him eligible to enter [[VideoGame/{{Smite}} the Battleground of the Gods]] one day due to his ancestry... |
| 68 | * While he's not too close with them, he's quite glad with the ascension of fellow Red Servants, Achilles and Atalanta, noting that they passed on in the same time and were quite known as [[FanNickname Team AKA]]. He's still awaiting the time [[VideoGame/FateGrandOrder Chaldea]] would summon Achilles as well... |
| 69 | ** Speaking of Chaldea, many was surprised when Karna introduced a rather... ''weird'' high-five. |
| 70 | -->''Hey, yo, Chadeluxe.'' |
| 71 | * He got into contact with [[VideoGame/{{Overwatch}} Satya Vaswani/Symmetra]] and tends to share stories of serving shady masters. Karna already encouraged her to endure, unlike him, she still has a chance to get out of her situation. And before anyone else asked, no, he wouldn't want to drop Vasavi Shakti to the Vishkar Corporation even for karma. Think of how many innocent people would be caught in the blast when doing so. |
| 72 | * Just how powerful is his Vasavi Shakti anyway? Aside from its destructive power, it's so powerful that [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-_buxB0TU8 it also distorts the surrounding's looks to an ever-changing style before the inevitable happens]]. |
| 73 | * Once ran into an odd worshipper of the sun named Solaire of Astora. After a brief skirmish where the knight [[spoiler: dodge-rolled his Brahmastra eye beams, parried a Vasavi Shakti strike, and countered the Brahmastra Kundala with a Sunlight Spear]], Solaire has gained Karna's respect, to the point where they greet each other with the "Praise the Sun" gesture. For this, the son of Surya the Sun God was given honorary membership of the Warriors of Sunlight. |
| 74 | * Can also be found in Pantheon/{{Explosives}}. |

| 97 | * The older stepbrother and antithesis of Professor Charles Xavier and the avatar of Cyttorak, Cain Marko found his way to the Pantheon when Cytorak discovered the place. Cain was delighted to see many powerful opponents he could fight, relishing every moment of it. During his tour around the pantheon, he discovered that there were psychics other than this stepbrother such as Tatsumaki, Jean Grey, Martian Manhunter, Ness, and Lucas just to name a few that attempted to get into his head. |
| 98 | * As he's nearly unstoppable, Lesser and demi-deities tread carefully around him. While they can't defeat him in a direct fight, he can be outsmarted such as when he loses his helmet depriving him of his immunity to mind control. Even those equalling his strength would find some trouble with him because of his sheer raw power fueled by the demonic gem. |
| 99 | * It took a combined effort of several psychics, magic users, and even a few gods to keep Juggernaut from crush Xavier into a bloody paste on the wall. As the head of a school of mutant, the sight of his very destructive step-brother made Xavier feel uneasy in the Pantheon due to their long and violent history with each other. While Logan and Scott ensured the professor he wouldn't cause trouble on their watch, the telepathic mutant knew his students were [[ImplacableMan still in danger with this powerhouse on the loose]]. |
| 100 | * Azrael takes an interest in him when the Mad Dog spotted him during one of his rampages. Cain relished in the idea of fighting his bloodlust foe. |
| 101 | * Hates Kamina for stealing and then mangling his memetic phrase. Marko has tried various times to steamroll him for it, but he always get beaten up by various powerful gods. The same goes for Jesse Pinkman who knows better than to screw with a guy who can literally toss him through walls. |
| 102 | * Both Hulks found the tin-headed titan a major pain in their green asses. Bruce always had to resist the urge to keep fighting him whenever the mutant support challenged him to a fight, and Jennifer found his needed to destroy everything in his path a bad lawsuit waiting to happen. There was also the [[Main/NeverLiveItDown one time she might or might not have sleep with Juggernaut, but she refuses to elaborate further on that]]... |
| 103 | * During his tour in the Pantheon, Cain had an encounter with Augus and challenged him to a duel. After a long and tiresome battle, the two fought to a standstill, having enjoyed their match with each other and look forward to their battle. |
| 104 | * There is specifically one entity he fears returning: '''Onslaught''', the fusion of [[spoiler: his stepbrother and Magneto]]. This fear stems from the time Onslaught beat him to an inch of his life. This is one of the few moments he will join forces with the heroes. |
| 105 | ** Cain also joined up with the X-Men in some periods of time allying with his enemies, but when [[ComicBook/UncannyXMen2018 Magik's demonic side destroyed his Cyttorak Gem and leaving him inside Limbo powerless]], the enforcer of the Brotherhood vowed to make the Russian magic-wielder a pile of dirt in the ground not helped by her lack of an apology to this act. |
| 106 | * Deadpool is a fan of his, to his annoyance. Even more given that his appearance in [[Film/Deadpool2 Wade's movie]] had Juggernaut defeated by anal electrocution, which also helped Cain hate [[Pantheon/RacialAppearances Colossus]] even more. |
| 107 | * Spider-Man is also one of his more common opponents, so much that Peter usually considered him "New York's human-sized bulldozer". The nearly unstoppable man finds the wall-crawler an annoying bug that's in need of squashing. |
| 108 | * While's usually causing trouble for X-Men there is one thing Juggernaut hates more than mutants and that's bullies. In most versions of the character, the [[EvenEvilHasStandards giant doesn't tolerate those picking on kids who can't defend themselves]] and he even met a mutant in Deadpool's movie dealing with adult abuse deciding on helping him out before confronting Deadpool. |

| 124 | * TeethClenchedTeamwork: [[Pantheon/{{Shape}} Shang Tsung]] |
| 125 | * The Night Sentinels have had it rough ever since they were betrayed and almost wiped out by the demons but some of them remained loyal after learning of the Khan Makyr's true allegiance and converted into the demonic Marauders, hellish elite warriors that know no peer. Wielding a shield, an axe and a shotgun, these warriors are a force to be reckoned with and unprepared warriors have fell in combat facing a single Marauder, because they are able to counter almost any firearm with their shields and speed, which is why they were later summoned for the title of KungFuProofMook. |
| 126 | * Ever since choosing to become demons, the Marauders have lost the respect they once had for the Doom Slayer, who they once saw as a peer but later chose to brand him as a "false idol" according to a Marauder that faced (and subsequently fell against) the Slayer. Of course the Doom Slayer will not hesitate to put them down even if they call him an usurper, once you choose to become a demon there is no going back from being torn apart by the Slayer. |
| 127 | * The Marauders are infamous about groups pertaining to brotherhoods and similar organizations given how they willingly turned to their dark side following the discovery that the Khan Makyr consorted with demons. The biggest opponents beside the slayer they have encountered were undoubtably the Guardians and the Tenno, [[WorthyOpponent who they find quite formidable]] but the aforementioned groups find the Marauders to be just blind fanatics blind following someone who is not worth the trouble. |
| 128 | * Similar to their fellow demons, they immediately pledged their allegiance to Dis, who they believe to be the closest figure that resembles the Dark Lord. Marauders also tend to ally themselves with Malebolgia, the Lord of Hell being an effective schemer that convinced the fallen sentinels to work for him in exchange of getting them in contact with the Khan Makyr. Their similarities with one of his former hellspawns, Al Simmons, became more noticeable when the man himself confronted and slaughtered a few of these soldiers personally, showing an uncharacteristic display of pity towards the Marauders for being good soldiers that only decided to follow their leader, even if that one was someone as twisted as the Khan Makyr and thinks killing them is a quick way to put them out of their misery. |
| 129 | * In a way they share some of the same reasonings to becoming a demon with the Daedric Prince Meridia, who once belong to a race of divine beings not unlike the Makyrs the Night Sentinels served. The Marauders simply scoff at how she still kept her divine looks even after being casted out and should embrace the path she took. Being the KnightTemplar that she is and the general disdain she has for those that consort with darkness, it was a matter of time before she too would become an enemy of the Forces of Hell but even if killing a couple of the Marauders is not difficult for her, when she decided to take the fight to their homeworld she was almost overwhelmed by the sheer suffering and anguish hell emanated as well as the seemingly unending number of demons coming her way. After escaping, she understood why the Slayer is so dedicated to slaying demons (mirroring her crusade against the undead) and developed some sort of pity for the people that the Marauders once were. |
| 130 | * Similar to their views on the Slayer, the Marauders think Master Chief is another "fallen idol" considering his actions and how others are foolish to believe he is a hero. The Chief simply feels sorry for the people they once where but wouldn't hesitate to take them down and even if he had his difference with the Doom Slayer in the past, he has come to understand why he does what he does after the Chief's encounter with the Marauders. |
| 131 | * Their shield are notoriously very strong and can even deflect weapons that are normally considered to be very powerful like the BFG. They are even able to summon an astral wolf if their shield are damaged enough, which is one of the many reason people find them frustrating to fight. Notably, Shield Knight has made herself a notable enemy of the Marauders because of their role as enforcers of hell, with their backstory of being {{Fallen Hero}}es hitting too close for comfort given how she used to be a vessel for the Enchantress. Similarly, her partner Shovel Knight has come to blows with a few of the Marauders that tried to assault Shield Knight's temple and has since held a personal grudge against them. |
| 132 | * The Marauders found themselves relating a lot to Aidan the Dark Wanderer, formerly the Hero of Tristam who defeated Diablo but became corrupted after encrusting Diablo's soulstone in his head. While his turn to the dark side was unwilling, the Marauders still respect Aidan for his commanding presence and his ties to Diablo could lead to a potential alliance with the Prime Evil. |
| 133 | * Similarly to the above, Marauders found themselves having a lot in common with Arthas Menethil, the former paladin becoming a Death Knight and later the Lich King mirrors the Night Sentinels turn to demonic enforcers. Although in this case, the fact that the Scourge was controlled and created by demons soured Arthas on trying to ally himself with the Marauders, knowing they are just sycophants to the Khan Makyr and just keep their relation as a minor rivalry in order to scalate another conflict between him and demons. |
| 134 | * Ash Williams once challenged a few of them to a duel to see if they were a strong as everyone said they were. Given that both he and the demons packed double-barreled shotguns made the fight even more interesting but Ash surprisingly was able to overcome them with help of his trusty chainsaw. Apparently he got some pointers from the Slayer himself on how to deal with the Marauders, explaining how he was able to outlast them easily. |
| 135 | * The Marauders found their match in Mash when both sides discovered the other's skill in defense. Mash does sympathize with their circumstances, but still knows how dangerous and will not hesitate to help her allies put them down. Knowing just how tough their shield is, Mash has them attack her first so her allies will take advantage the opening they make. |
| 136 | * Shang Tsung saw an oportunity to propose an alliance with the Marauders, seeking protection from the Forces of Hell given that he has become [[ZeroPercentApprovalRating one of the most despised and targetted of his universe]] and with [[ChronicBackstabbingDisorder good reason]]. But mostly, what draws Shang Tsung to the demons is their Argent energy, created from the suffering of the damned and whose energy could empower him even more. The Marauders are aware of the Sorcerer's reputation and so have allowed to work alongside them, but they keep a very close eye on him.[[/folder]] |

| 154 | * Opposes/Opposed by: '''[[Pantheon/HuntersAndSlayers The Monster Hunters]]''', Deities that can use Ice |
| 155 | * Size: 849.73cm-1631.2cm |
| 156 | * Once holding the whopping collective titles of SuperMode, BattleAura, and KamehameHadoken, Goku also held the title of LightningBruiser but as time went on in the Pantheon it along with BattleAura soon faded away and became limited to just two tropes. Debates went on as to who should take LightningBruiser for hours on end in the House of Pantheon/FightingAndCombat. Around that time there were reports of a giant primate harassing both deities and followers around the different Houses/Halls, many of whom tend to be equine in nature. Some members in the Hall of Pantheon/HuntersAndSlayers were tasked with tracking down such a vexing creature and have laid many traps around the House of Pantheon/FightingAndCombat predicting it will strike there next and ambush it. Indeed it would come but it would instead get the drop on them, rip apart the traps with its bare hands, [[PunchedAcrossTheRoom and soon launch some to another sub-house over]] while others got [[DishingOutDirt crushed by giant pieces of rock]] it unearthed with its bare hands. One was even [[MetronomicManMashing smashed repeatedly over the ground like a metronome]]. Seeing the power of such a beast firsthand made it a hot topic among the list of potential inheritors. Sure enough, the Court of Gods would soon come to select the beast, known as the Rajang, to fill such a role. |
| 157 | * This Fanged Beast earned its infamy within the Monster Hunters, and it's certainly well deserved. As you can guess from its Pantheonic title [[LightningBruiser it hits hard, it moves and hits fast, and can take what it dishes out]]. Both in its normal and enraged state signified by its hair turned a vibrant golden yellow, in a manner [[ShoutOut very reminiscent of a]] [[Franchise/DragonBall Saiyan]]. You'd do well to also avoid the [[ShockAndAwe lightning beams]] it spits out in addition to its physical attacks such as a flurry of fisticuffs. To really give an idea of how unbelievably strong Rajang is this Fanged Beast is one of the monsters classified as a threat akin to Elder Dragons. Said Elder Dragons are classified mainly for being "...type[s] of phenomenon: disasters, cataclysms, living, breathing forces of nature." |
| 158 | ** Rumors exist of individual Rajang who's normal state of being is its own signature golden rage, appropriately titled Furious Rajang. Not only is it as strong as normal one when it TurnsRed, but it also has its own SuperMode where its golden hairs stand on end, [[ShoutOut in a manner very reminiscent of a]] [[Franchise/DragonBall Saiyan going further beyond]], making it even stronger than before. Thankfully these variants are not common, but you'd do well to steel yourself when actually fighting them. |
| 159 | * Said to hunt Kirins, electric Elder Dragons that resemble unicorns, for specifically the horns on their heads. It can be inferred here that said horns helps grant Rajang its signature Thunder abilities. And if [[VideoGame/MonsterHunterWorld reports like those done in the New World]] are of any indication it is easily able to overpower the smaller legendary monster with little trouble. Few if at all Kirins roam the Pantheon so the Rajang took to attacking anyone it viewed as potential substitutes. The first documented attack post-ascension was on Lady Amalthea alongside Princesses Celestia and Luna, though it quickly realized that the horned steeds were, instead of simple prey animals, magnificently powerful and capable in a fight, and the trio's combined strength was enough to drive it away after a great battle. The latter two immediately warned Princess Cadance, Twilight Sparkle and Rarity along with the rest of their friends of such a creature roaming the Pantheon's grounds. |
| 160 | * Howard and Kreese don't particularly spectate over animals and beasts, [[DeadlyGame DeathWatch]] primarily having human(oid) combatants, but they decided to make an exception for Rajang. Both for being impressed at its sheer power and the fact that Kreese got his ass whiped across the ground when he was on the wrong end of its anger and thought the monster was all talk. [[CurbstompBattle It was so bad]] that by the time the proper authorities found him he was declared legally dead. [[NoodleIncident Again]]. |
| 161 | --> '''Howard:''' "Never have nature documentaries been this awesome!" |
| 162 | --> '''Kreese:''' "In-fuckin'-deed." |
| 163 | * It has seen its fair share of battles from other monsters back home. Those from Zinogre, Lagiacrus, and Deviljho often are the most common to occur and are as brutal as you would imagine. There are some fights against Rathalos and Rathian, though neither can match Rajang's strength. Sometimes Rajang has been reported to do battle with the much bigger Nergigante, or more specifically its Ruiner variant. It even manages to perform a picture-perfect {{Shoryuken}} on it while Ruiner Nergigante [[PunchedAcrossTheRoom swipes the Fanged Beast aside]]. |
| 164 | * Strong as this giant minotaur-gorilla is, it is not invincible. Though being on the receiving end of its attacks is brutal, as far as monsters of its strength class go it does lean toward being a GlassCannon, even if one could not see it that way at first. In addition, there is also its weakness towards the ice element so be sure to have people with those in their disposal tagging along. Not a crippling weakness, but a weakness nonetheless. |
| 165 | * Though a violent and territorial monster it, believe it or not, has formed some off its own allies. The first came in the form of LightningBruiser's former holder, Son Goku, and the Monkey King, Sun Wukong. This is because Rajang [[ShoutOut takes a lot from Goku]] and by proxy takes from Sun Wukong who has [[FountainOfExpies many, many of his own expies]]. |
| 166 | ** Big Bull, ever so boisterous and full of testosterone and ham, also got along with Rajang. They locked horns once, and though Rajang came out on top, Big Bull held his ground expertly. Still undeterred by his loss, Big Bull views the monster in high regard and gets plenty excited when it encounters it again. On Rajang's end it soon learned not to mind Big Bull. Though he sometimes gets involved in its fights he never impedes on the Gold Lion's progress. |
| 167 | * Though Rajang is nicer when it comes to the Monkey King, make no mistake he does not reserve the same amicable attitude towards his fellow primates. Both Donkey Kong and King Kong have crossed fists with the monster should they ever cross paths by chance and even then [[BloodKnight it is usually Rajang initiating the fights]]. Mojo Jojo tried countless times to convince the Fanged Beast to fight for him and against the Powerpuff Girls, but it doesn't budge. Not that it does stop Rajang from fighting them, as Mojo Jojo found out about Rajang when it was making a ruckus and they were sent in to help[[note]]not to mention Rajang's pretty much enemies with various ponies after its earlier stunts with unicorns[[/note]], but it fights whoever it wants on its own terms. |

| 184 | * He had to compete with [[Pantheon/{{Nature}} Nakoruru]] to earn this place, considering Chipp is a ninja and Nakoruru is faster than ninjas. Chipp's more speed-based combat style eventually won him his spot in this Pantheon, for several reasons -- including his hard to predict teleports. |
| 185 | * Many a God and Goddess have taken to telling him to stop yelling "FIND ME!" if he's about to hide himself. |
| 186 | * Reportedly, he sneezed when [[VideoGame/BlazBlue he was referenced by Litchi about how Ragna's defense score is kind of low]]. Nobody was around him at that time, thankfully. |
| 187 | * Even after his deification, he continued to pester Anji over teaching him more about Japanese. Chipp trusts him more, at least, even with the latter's standing in the GUAE. |
| 188 | * Issued a challenge against Steven Armstrong, as Chipp believes that he's able to teach him a thing or two if one wants to run for presidency for good, also claiming that his ninja training will overcome any nanomachines. |
| 189 | * He recognizes his fellow American Gaijin Ninja [[VideoGame/SamuraiShodown Galford]] as his classmate when the latter rose to the Pantheon. They plan on a class reunion together with their previous master, Bang Shishigami. |
| 190 | * Has realized that there are some guys who wants to oppose his presidency and dragging him to become something like his past, a drug-dealer.

| 208 | * To the south of the continent of Shurima, there lies a city called Nazumah, built around plentiful water, forests, and fauna. Having defended itself for generations from warlords, Ascended, and ravenous beasts, there was one man who would become the republic's greatest protector: K'Sante. Having grown up learning all about the history of his home, he swore to become Nazumah's greatest warrior and hunter. As the years passed, he trained, becoming stronger and smarter, even finding love with a fellow hunter, Tope. His greatest challenge would arrive, however, in the form of a cobra-lion, one of many creatures used in the wars between the emperor Azir and the magus Xerath. Having sworn to the elders to kill it, K'Sante and Tope soon found out the sheer strength of the beast, and they failed all attempts to kill it. Soon, K'Sante became more brash and obsessed with killing it, eventually driving Tope away. This deed sobered K'Sante, making him realize his pride had gotten the better of him. Using the journal Tope left behind, he finally defeated the beast, bringing it back to the city and using its scales as armor for his weapons. Having learned from his mistakes and reconciling with Tope, he now knows to never again be blinded by his ego and will always defend Nazumah from northern threats. |
| 209 | * It was a fairly regular day in the city of Nazumah, when the scouts ran to the city gates, telling of strange men proclaiming to hail from a pantheon of sorts. When those men arrived, they announced their peaceful intentions, and that they were searching for K'Sante. When he met them, they told him that his fighting style of switching from defensive and strong to fierce and agile made him the perfect candidate for being the god of [[ShedArmorGainSpeed Increasing Agility in lieu of Defenses]]. Surprised that he was being offered godhood, K'Sante was reassured that nothing about him would change, and that the title was only a formality at best. With this in mind, and worrying about the strange people the men have spoken of, K'Sante agreed, doing so for the safety of his people. |
| 210 | * During his time in the Pantheon, he encountered and made friends with [[Pantheon/RoyalActivities T’challa]], also known as Black Panther. They became fast friends, as both are badass black characters who defend their hidden homeland from invaders. K'Sante often meets up with him to train and learn more about other advanced threats. In their free time, they tell each other stories about the enemies they’ve faced and the history of their respective homes. |
| 211 | * He’s on good terms with most other VideoGame/LeagueOfLegends dieties, and they usually keep in touch, but most of them aren’t that close, except in their rivalry with [[Pantheon/Dota2 The Defenders Of The Ancients]]. However, He gets along quite well with [[Pantheon/NonVehicularTravel Pantheon]]. He admires the unbreakable spear’s quest to defend mortals from the selfish and apathetic whims of the gods, and Pantheon respects K'Sante’s drive to protect his home from the Ascended. They often spar in their free time, which results in a lot of damage to their surroundings and many [[LargeHam bombastic interactions]]. Both would say that they have a strong friendship, and their mutual respect is admired by many. |
| 212 | * K'Sante despises [[Pantheon/FantasticalLeadership Azir]] and [[Pantheon/MagicMixed Xerath]] as he blames their pride for their petty wars that have cost plenty of lives. Both Azir and Xerath think they are in the right, though, and perceive K'Sante as a rebellious little infidel. Both of them separately conspire to take over Nazumah for their respective causes and put an end to K'Sante’s spurnings. He also doesn’t like the [[Myth/EgyptianMythology Egyptian gods]] as well, due to their resemblance to Shurima’s Ascended. Most of them don’t really care about him, and just ignore him, seeing K'Sante as being beneath them; however, some do see him as a potential threat, and are irked by his lack of respect to such powerful beings. |
| 213 | * A deity that caught his ire was [[Pantheon/VillainousSuccessAndFailure Tai Lung]], as the leopard let himself get consumed by his pride and ego when Master Oogway refused to give him the title of Dragon Warrior. Tai Lung can’t stand him either, as he finds K'Sante’s constant criticism to be infuriating. They have gotten into many fights of varying scales, with K'Sante frequently coming out as the victor, which aggravates Tai Lung even more. K'Sante himself is annoyed by Tai Lung’s incessant boasts and is getting somewhat tired of fighting with him, as the leopard simply cannot believe that what he is doing is wrong. |
| 214 | * He has a minor feud with [[Pantheon/{{Monarchs}} Ramses II]]. His stubborn refusal to free the Israelites from slavery and escalating the whole ordeal, leading to the deaths of every firstborn Egyptian male, including Pharaoh’s own son, shocked K'Sante, and he often mocks the pharaoh for his pride. This naturally infuriates Ramses, who often threatens to personally conquer Nazumah. K'Sante thinks he doesn’t have the guts to do so. |
| 215 | * Out of all his enemies in the Pantheon, his most hated must be the malevolent Pantheon/MonsterHunter deities. The many fierce and destructive beasts remind him of the monsters he’s killed defending Nazumah, especially the cobra-lion. However, he has acknowledged that some are too big for him to face alone, and often frequents the House of Pantheon/BeastsAndFauna to learn more about the creatures. He is also seen frequenting the Hall of Pantheon/{{HuntersAndSlayers}} to get advice and assistance from The Monster Hunters on how to properly defeat these beasts. |
| 216 | * Having had a first-hand experience on what pride can do to someone, he has a negative option on {{SmugSnake}}s and {{ArrogantKungFuGuy}}s, ranging from annoyance at best to outright hate at worst. As such, he tends to avoid them. As they cannot see the error of their ways, they think that K'Sante is crazy and that his pride provided him with drive, that Tope was holding him back. He just sees it as the ravings of sad, deluded people. On the other hand, he’s on good terms with most AmicableExes of the Pantheon, and they are happy to hear about his reconciling with Tope after their falling out. K'Sante himself admires their ability to move on while still being good friends. |
| 217 | * While there are more than a few deities who can match his skill in combat, one person who he considers a WorthyOpponent is [[Pantheon/FightingMoves Akande Ogundimu]], also known as Doomfist. While The Pride of Nazumah doesn’t approve of [[TheSocialDarwinist his ideology]] or methods, he does respect his combat prowess and finds him quite [[AffablyEvil personable]] and an eloquent speaker. Doomfist himself thinks highly of the man, and regrets not being able to recruit him into Talon. |
| 218 | * When hearing of [[Pantheon/AntiHeroism Teth-Adam’s]] devotion to the protection of his home of Khandaq, K'Sante hoped to find a kindred spirit. Instead, he found that Adam’s devotion to his home was the only thing K'Sante found positive about him, as his ruthlessness and channeling the powers of the Egyptian gods makes K'Sante uncomfortable. Teth-Adam, on the other hand, doesn’t mind much, and thinks that K'Sante should use more violent methods to ensure Nazumah’s safety. |
| 219 | * Out of all his enemies, the one deity that straight-up disgusts him is [[Pantheon/{{TacticsAndStrategies}} Oryx The Mad God]]. K'Sante sees the man as an EvilCounterpart of himself, as both were the monster-slaying champions of their cities, but Oryx became completely consumed by his ambitions, fell to evil, and brought ruin to his home. Being a tyrant who ascended to godhood by overpowering a deity adds more to K'Sante's hatred of him. The Pride of Nazumah was shocked and horrified when he heard of Oryx's backstory and has sworn to oppose him every step of the way. He does acknowledge; however, that the Mad God is on a way higher power level than him, but he still antagonizes him when he can. Oryx is somewhat amused by the man but has sworn to crush K'Sante and his city if he dares to put his threats to action. |
| 220 | * Humorously, he has drawn the attention of the Hall of Pantheon/{{Memes}}, mostly due to his resemblance to the famous “Gigachad”. K'Sante doesn’t think much of it, but he does find their requests for a shirtless photo shoot to be annoying and a tad bit disturbing. As he has an infamous reputation among the playerbase for being quite the GameBreaker, they also like to repeat [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fW69GYmiHBM a certain rant]], which irks him even further. For these reasons, he tends to steer clear of the Hall. |

| 237 | * Respect given and received from: [[Pantheon/{{Physicians}} Plague Knight]] |
| 238 | * When the best strategy isn't to fight; Nega Scott is a embodiment of all of Scott's past and flaws he had throughout the series. What started with Scott trying to just defeat him and move on, he realized that Nega Scott couldn't be defeated like this, and to truly prove himself worthy of Ramona's love, he would have to accept him, and thus, admit to his faults. In the end, he did, and Nega Scott was successfully merged with him, and thus, was able to properly grow and learn. |
| 239 | * Thanks to how much of a pain Scott is in his plans at recapturing Ramona, or for that matter, any other girl that he thinks would look nice in his frozen girl collection, Graves had toyed with multiple ideas on getting rid of Scott. There was one GUAE-GUAG battle with him and some allies against Scott and a few members of [[Pantheon/TimePlacement SEES]] that occurred. Graves had the upper hand, and an Evoker ended up sliding close to where Scott had fallen. Hearing of how they worked [[note]]Not that SEES actually needed them anymore since their ascension[[/note]], Scott decided to take a chance and aimed it at his head. Gideon laughed at this and asked if Scott was that desperate to die, but when his adversary pulled the trigger, what happened next was unexpected to all parties. |
| 240 | ** Nega Scott emerged, landed next to his counterpart, and got ready to throw down. His arrival managed to turn the tide and force Gideon to flee. To the surprise of SEES, Nega Scott didn't disappear. As Scott returned the borrowed Evoker, he realized he could ascend Nega Scott for SheatheYourSword, since it was only through non-violence that Scott could placate his other self. One visit to the Court of the Gods later, it became official. |
| 241 | * While Scott thinks Nega Scott really isn't his Persona technically, he also really can't prove them wrong, and SEES (plus the Investigation Team) has tasked the House of Pantheon/{{Knowledge}} to figure out if he really is a persona. For now, he just calls him his Persona for simplicity's sake. While Nega Scott was at first needed for Scott to learn of his flaws, due to how Scott grew and realized his mistakes, Nega Scott is no longer needed to stay in Scott 24/7 and can live a life of his own within the Pantheon. |
| 242 | * There is ONE timeline [[VideoGame/ScottPilgrimVsTheWorldTheGame where he is as evil as he looks]], but however, [[MultipleEndings due to the nature of all the endings]] as well as the fact that in Scott's ending, [[DownerEnding he loses Ramona but dates Knives, Envy and Kim]], everyone considers this timeline to be non-canon, and rather as what could have happened if Scott truly rejected him. |
| 243 | %% * While with Scott one day, he ended up crossing paths with Plague Knight, who ended up talking about his own trip to the TV World after finding out Scott managed to befriend his own Persona. Due to the fact that he didn't feel like he had to prove himself anymore after earning [[Pantheon/{{Gameplay}} Mona's]] love, he decided to just check out just what his Shadow would look like. Seeing that it was the potion he created from before in the Tower of Fate, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6QFdLkpM4TE he decided to not fight it and just examine it, realizing that it was him when he still felt like he needed to prove his might for Mona, before the Plague of Shadows finally stopped attacking him all together]]. The only reason he didn't get a Persona was because he felt like he didn't need it, and because it'acquiring one is not a guarantee in the Pantheon. As such, he respects Nega Scott for his role in ensuring Scott becomes a better person. Also as such, Nega Scott also has respect for the alchemist as well. |
| 244 | %% ** Due to Scott's trip and pacifistic way of befriending his Shadow within the TV World, he, and by extension Nega Scott, have been invited to the Velvet Room by Igor, to not only congratulate them, but also to teach the two ways of increasing their power when Nega Scott is absorbed into Scott as well as them they are fighting side by side. Igor also likes how Nega Scott is inherently good despite his creepy appearance, talking with him from time to time. |
| 245 | %% *** During such trips, they found out that the Nega Scott was capable of using fireball projectiles while Scott wasn't. Scott is currently looking into how to shoot fireballs from his hands, buying Fire Flowers in bulk to practice. |
| 246 | %% *** They also discovered that Nega Scott was indeed created by Gideon, [[BlackBugRoom weaponizing "The Glow" Scott got when emotionally distraught to amplify his self-destructive tendecies and birthing the Nega Scott as a result]]. While this means that there could be multiple nega versions of people in theory, not much has been confirmed as of yet. |
| 247 | * Due to the title of Scott's series as well as [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/scottpilgrim/images/5/59/Negascott_intro-1-.gif/revision/latest?cb=20101124121307 a certain pose Nega Scott loves to do]], Dio Brando has labeled Nega Scott as a enemy, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZeqphuurYJE and decided to try and flex his superiority to him and Scott, trying to psyche Scott out by claiming to be a former lover of Ramona]]. [[spoiler:To everyone's surprise, not only was Nega Scott able to detect Dio's stand, but the two were able to triumph over him in the end. Dio claims this was because he was too careless and was caught off guard by Nega Scott's power, and has since swore revenge for the incident, even placing a bounty on his head.]] |
| 248 | * Due to their role in being GoodAllAlong despite looking otherwise, Nega Scott became fast friends with Queen Watevra Wa'Nabi, understanding her role and intentions rather well. That said, she does admit to finding him as a face she really doesn't want to wake up to in the middle of night, which he can understand. |
| 249 | * When in battle, some people report seeing a nega version of Knives pop up to help from time to time. As such, many people wonder just how many nega versions there are, and of who. As of right now, Nega Scott's lips are sealed. |
| 250 | * It's not often he finds people that befriended their nega side, and as such, was impressed with Madeline and Badeline for getting along despite being literal opposites of each other. Of course, [[CrossoverShip some people took this as a cue to ship the two dark versions together]], with Badeline responding with yelling and hiding in Madeline, while Nega Scott's normally dark face gets a bit of color thanks to red cheeks. |
| 251 | ** He also gained a alliance with Ichigo after finding out that he also had to deal with his own negas self, namely his Inner Hollow [[spoiler:aka Zanpakuto]], even if they don't follow the same beats. Ichigo for his part was just glad that this wasn't the version of Nega Scott who decided to try to take over the world and actually befriended Scott. |
| 252 | * When traversing with Scott to the house of Combat to practice fighting moves they learned with Igor, their attention was drawn to Ryu fighting against Kage, whom looked just like Ryu in a dark hue, reminding the two of themselves. When they heard from onlookers that Kage [[DarkIsEvil was just as evil as he looked with plans to re-enter Ryu's body for more power]], [[BigDamnHeroes they sprang into action after Kage knocked Ryu out, managing to fight him off long enough for him to get knocked out as well, managing to drag Ryu back into his temple]]. He has come to appreciate the two and respects their fighting prowess, even expressing interest in fighting against the two of them at once when he feels better. |

| 258 | * Lesser God, borderline Greater God without the Truant ability |
| 259 | * Symbol: Its fist |
| 260 | * Alignment: ChaoticNeutral |
| 261 | * Gender: Male |
| 262 | * Ability: [[BlessedWithSuck Truant]] |
| 263 | * Moveset: Giga Impact, Facade, Hammer Arm, Fire Punch |
| 264 | ** Z-Move: Breakneck Blitz |
| 265 | * Portfolio: [[NecessaryDrawback Necessary Drawbacks]], LoopholeAbuse, [[NonElemental Normal-type]], BlessedWithSuck, [[BrilliantButLazy Having excellent stats but being too lazy to use them to their fullest potential]], [[DifficultButAwesome Being hard to use but awesome when it works out]], {{Lightning Bruiser}}s |
| 266 | * Domains: Strength, Sloth(the animal and attitude), Limitations |
| 267 | * Allies: [[Pantheon/GamingStyles Chuggaaconroy]], [[Pantheon/{{Advertising}} Ash Ketchum]], [[Pantheon/{{Felines}} Garfield]], [[Pantheon/OtherPowers Hayate Yagami]], Any Pokémon that can use Skill Swap or any other functioning way of removing its ability, such as [[Pantheon/ScientistsAndGeniuses Alakazam]], [[Pantheon/{{Ghosts}} Gengar]], [[Pantheon/BeastsAndFauna Reuniclus]] and [[Pantheon/{{Gaming}} Audino]], [[Pantheon/{{Mammals}} King Kong]], [[Pantheon/AnthropomorphicAnimals Caeser]], [[Pantheon/{{Calmness}} Jeffery Lebowski]], [[Pantheon/{{Locations}} Snorlax]], [[Pantheon/FantasticRaces Regigigas]] |
| 268 | ** Partner: [[Pantheon/{{Fathers}} Homer Simpson]] |
| 269 | * Enemies: [[Pantheon/ValuesAndEthics Ghetsis Harmonia]], [[Pantheon/VillainousArchetypes Giovanni and Team Rocket]], [[Pantheon/{{Transformations}} Frieza]], [[Pantheon/TypesOfMadness Koba]], [[Pantheon/{{Mammals}} Mojo Jojo]] |
| 270 | * Slaking is a Pokemon that is both gorilla and sloth. Called the Lazy Pokemon, Slaking is rightfully considered the most slothful Pokemon in existence. Though not as narcoleptic or fat as Snorlax, they spend most of the time patiently waiting for food. But this laziness keeps in check their power. Slaking is the strongest non-legendary Pokemon, having the same base stats as ''[[OlympusMons Kyogre and Groudon]]''. [[NecessaryDrawback He'd be totally overpowered if it wasn't for said ability]] |
| 271 | * The Truant ability means that he can only fight once every two turns, and if he can find a way to cancel that ability he's a force to be reckoned with. Audino tried another strategy to remove his ability with Simple Beam. It didn't work, so she went back to using Skill Swap. If he can't remove his ability, he can now make full use of Giga Impact, since he has to wait a turn anyway. |
| 272 | * Slaking used to partnered with Chuggaaconroy. After winning the championship, they departed. It took him a while to figure out why his Hyper Beam wasn't as effective any more after Normal-types were no longer all physical attacks and they had to rehaul his entire moveset. With the introduction of Sinnoh came Regigigas, who despite being a legendary suffers from a similar gimping ability. Slaking decided to cheer it up and tell him there's no need to rush or be ashamed. |
| 273 | * Has chosen to partner himself with [[Pantheon/{{Fathers}} Homer Simpson]], due to being large, lazy and strong. However it is forbidden for him to give Slaking any Duff Beer; no-one wants a drunk Pokemon with his stats. |
| 274 | * A very relaxed Pokemon, Snorlax rarely leaves his temple. Unlike Snorlax he is far from slow, having a base speed of 100. Back when he was a Vigoroth he was a lot more active and excitable, having the Vital Spirit ability that prevented him going to sleep. Sometimes muses on this teenager phases. He gets along with Garfield due to their laziness. He also gets along with Jeffery Lebowski due to their relaxed personality. |
| 275 | * Unlike most gods, Slaking is daring enough to visit the House of Pantheon/{{Toxicity}}. This is not due to any immunity, but his move of Facade which doubles in power when under a status infliction. Given his already formidable attack stat, this is a terrifying attack if poisoned there. Most avoid using toxins there for that reason. |
| 276 | * He has a certain kinship with King Kong and Caeser for being fellow primates, and respects the former's desire to be left alone. This kinship isn't shared by Koba or Mojo Jojo, as he feels they give simians a bad name. Or Frieza because of his hatred towards all primates and general depravity. Not a fan of Ghetsis Harmonia either, but then again [[HateSink what Pokemon is?]]. Or Giovanni and Team Rocket. |
| 277 | * Would rather not enter the House of Pantheon/FightingAndCombat. Partly it's due to his weakness to Fighting types, and partly it's being too lazy to give some of the more combat-loving gods there a good fight. Instead he seems to like sleeping in the House of Pantheon/{{Food}} due to the easy meals. |
| 278 | * The only time Slaking lost his Truant ability was [[WebVideo/TwitchPlaysPokemonFireRed during the time the Mob encountered him in one of their playthroughs]]. His Truant move was replaced with Minus, and thus Slaking became a wrecking ball of destruction against any and all challengers. Mercifully, Slaking is glad to have them gone because working non-stop like that was exhausting. |
