| 21 | * When [[VideoGame/GodOfWarIII Kratos destroyed Mount Olympus]], Aphrodite was one of the survivors. She found herself amongst the Trope Pantheons, in order to serve as the DistaffCounterpart of [[Pantheon/PowerAndAbilities Hercules']] [[WorldsMostBeautifulWoman portfolio]], and when it was revealed that she has been seen in the [[VideoGame/{{Smite}} Battlefield of the Gods]] and cheating with a lot of deities and in the same time, giving them great support, which surprises even Cosmos and many of the House of Love, who knew that cheating isn't always negative and can be beneficial? |
| 22 | * They were even more surprised when it was revealed that Aphrodite harbored a lot of regret on causing the Trojan War, and the reason she was seen in the Battlefield of the Gods was to try to find out if her beauty can be used to stop war, they thought she didn't give a shit about the Trojan War after winning that 'The Fairest' apple. And that [[spoiler:all her cheating escapades was because she's rather insecure and feeling worthless when her husband Hephaestus wasn't paying much attention to her despite her title]]. Of course, old habits die hard and she tends to use the facade of ProudBeauty and BitchInSheepsClothing front of many, but many who knew this understood about her tortured soul. |
| 23 | ** Upon further investigation, it has been confirmed that she was inflicted by an element of the [[VideoGame/GodOfWar Pandora's Box]], Lust/Vanity, but her acts came more from her natural self, being the Goddess of Beauty. It was only after an incident in the [[VideoGame/{{Smite}} Battlefield of the Gods]], when she formed a link with [[Pantheon/FriendshipDynamicsAToL Guan Yu]], protected him from [[Pantheon/{{Trickery}} Loki]] and being healed by his "infectious leadership" that the element was destroyed, allowing people to discover her broken heart. |
| 24 | *** Upon having similarities of the both of them using sexual acts to fend off their past they are not proud of (with Angelo being his parents and Aphrodite being herself), Angelo pities and gives her his sympathies. They can be seen with Angelo resting on her lap as the two have surprisingly deep talks about their pasts for one-half of their visits, and the other is filled with them making lewd and flirtatious remarks. |
| 25 | ** This also led her to rediscover her passion with Kratos after their night-stand during the fall of Olympus. But deep down she also felt a little insecure and scared, realizing the last time Kratos caved her whole Pantheon. Still, he reminded her so much with Ares... [[YourApprovalFillsMeWithShame something that would make Kratos just facepalm]]. |
| 26 | * Hanging around with various Gods here eventually even got her [[EveryoneHasStandards slightly disgusted with how Zeus acted]] so Kratos kicked his arse. However, Aphrodite didn't dare raise such a statement in front of Zeus. This is ''Zeus'' we're talking about after all. |
| 27 | ** This was also why after Hephaestus rose into the Pantheon, Aphrodite has been lately paying him a visit and secretly shares her newfound disgust, as well as how it wouldn't be possible had it not been her participation in the Battlefield of the Gods. Surprisingly, Hephaestus also understands that, and for a rare time, they were actually agreeing and treating each other with respect. |
| 28 | * It was said that she's looking for what is true inner beauty, despite her title. For this, she is fond with the Guardian of inner beauties, [[Anime/SmilePreCure Reika Aoki]]. |
| 29 | * When she entered the Pantheon, she received weird looks from [[Manga/SaintSeiya Andromeda Shun]]. This probably stems from the fact that from his knowledge, Gods aside of Athena in his realm can be such assholes, and that she shared the same name as the evil Pisces Saint. In one look, Aphrodite realized that her kiss can't charm [[CelibateHero him]], so she decided to share her tale, enough that Shun would leave her alone in normal terms. |
| 30 | * Many worshippers of other Goddesses would boast that [[TheWorfEffect their Goddesses' beauty are unmatched they're either on par or even more beautiful than Aphrodite]]. The Pantheon has made this a taboo, because this is usually hitting Aphrodite's insecurity and usually this would attract her wrath. Despite her portfolio, [[HeartIsAnAwesomePower her wrath is not to be underestimated]]. |
| 31 | * Is friends with Panty and Stocking. She especially likes the former as the two [[LovableSexManiac sha]][[ThePornomancer re]] [[ReallyGetsAround persona]][[AllWomenAreLustful lities]]. |
| 32 | * At one point, Aphrodite was planning on a beauty contest amongst the Pantheon Goddesses, but it was quickly deduced by the Investigation Team, especially Yu Narukami, that it's yet another way to mask her insecurity, and her acts reminded them of their mortal class teacher, Noriko Kashiwagi, and it's not doing good for her image. After being suggested by Narukami that she should be more confident of herself, Aphrodite was so grateful that she even offers to become his Persona at times. |
| 33 | * Has a motherly sense of affection for Wonder Woman, who inherited her blessings of beauty and love, and is extremely proud of her fighting in the name of love and peace. |
| 34 | * Whenever she gets near [[Pantheon/{{Personality}} Nyarlathotep]], she couldn't understand how it came to be so far, but... she hates him. She thinks he didn't deserve any 'love'. So far, seems like only Tatsuya Suou, Maya Amano and Eikichi Mishina has any idea why she thinks like that. |
| 35 | * Also hates [[VideoGame/KidIcarusUprising the other Hades]] who just wouldn't leave her insecurity alone like the original one, instead [[{{Troll}} mocking it]] at every opportunity possible. On the other hand, she had quite the interest of Pit not just for his opposition against this Hades, but him being a short-statured winged youth mainly wielding a bow reminded her of her son Cupid/Eros. |
| 36 | * A little known fact about Aphrodite is that in her earliest mythological depictions, she was worshipped as a goddess of both love and war. This form of Aphrodite, known as “Aphrodite Areia” (which basically translates as “[[RedBaron Aphrodite The Warlike]]”), was mainly worshipped in Sparta and it’s surrounding regions. However, she hasn’t assumed that guise in a long time and she doesn’t plan to do so unless she has to, mostly because she doesn’t want to seal her siblings Ares and Athena’s thunder. If her enemies ever end up pushing her too far, [[BewareTheNiceOnes she’ll get serious and she’ll show them exactly why war was one of her domains]]. As Aphrodite Areia, her personality changes to resemble what she was in her younger days and she becomes a OneWomanArmy BloodKnight who delights in both love and war. |
| 37 | * Whenever she makes an appearance, a little ditty seems to follow her. |

| 59 | * Pities: [[Pantheon/MagicAndSorcery Madoka Kaname]], [[spoiler:[[Pantheon/TimeManipulation Homura Akemi]]]], [[Pantheon/MagicalItems Zeref]] |
| 60 | * First daughter of Shuichiro Ayatsuki, older sister of Celica A. Mercury, human wife of Jubei, and mother of Kokonoe ([[spoiler:and also adopted aunt of Ragna, Jin and Saya/Noel]]). Konoe A. Mercury is the ninth member of the Ten Sages and is one of the Legendary Six Heroes. She is without a doubt, one of the strongest magical users to ever ascend into the Pantheon. With having both unrivaled magical power and beauty to match, the Court of Gods had decided to ascend Nine into Pantheon with for [[HotWitch these exact qualities]]. |
| 61 | * The last thing Nine remembered before ascending was that [[spoiler:she [[DeathEqualsRedemption willingly allowed herself to die]] after being struck down by Ragna [[HeroicSacrifice and used the last of her life/power to aid Ragna against Izanami]]]]. With this she's a bit surprised to see not only is she still alive, but that she's now a god. |
| 62 | ** She is however grateful for another chance at life, and has decided to dedicate her time in Pantheon to make [[TheAtoner amends]] to the others of her world, and hopefully make reunite with the rest of her family. |
| 63 | * Ragna was the first to greet her. Happy that she was no longer an enemy, he and Rachel are currently working alongside her to improve her relationship with the other [=BlazBlue=] deities. |
| 64 | ** So far things have gone smoothly with the other ascended Six Heroes. Valkenhayn is glad that the two of them are no longer on the opposing sides, [[spoiler:and for that he can finally thank her for saving him against Terumi as Phantom]]. Hakumen is grateful that she is no longer a threat or danger to the world and its Order, [[spoiler:and is also silently supportive of her [[TheAtoner attempt to make amends]]]]. |
| 65 | * Kokonoe didn't want to see her mother for quite some time holding herself up with "new projects" she had been working on until one day, which saw the witch meet with the young professor... [[spoiler:to give her a gentle hug while shedding tears of sorrow]]. |
| 66 | * As Nine is the creator of [[{{Magitek}} Ars Magus]] she very well respected in the House of Pantheon/MagicAndSorcery Pantheon/{{Science}} and and even the House of Pantheon/{{Knowledge}}, for being able to understand how both work and for combining them together. She regularly visits the many residents of both to learn more, and to spend some quality time with her daughter. |
| 67 | ** A testament to how how great Nine's magical abilities are, was when Merlin, both male and [[GenderFlip female]] came up to her and complimented her abilities and on the creation of the Nox Nyctores. Especially the [[spoiler:Corpus Sepulcro: Requiem. A Nox capable or reshaping the entire multiverse]] |
| 68 | ** While many evil technological gods (and some good ones) will say that [[MagicVersusScience science is superior]] they prefer to avoid conflict with Nine as she created a virus that completely trapped Takamagahara, an [[TheOmniscient omniscient]] supercomputer that ruled over time and space. |
| 69 | * Nine would like others to know that there is a reason for why she’s called Nine instead of her actual birth name. One, she [[EmbarrassingFirstName doesn't like it]]. Two, when becoming a member of the Ten Sages they are [[ThatManisdead no longer who they were]] and are now one of the ten Sages. |
| 70 | * Naturally, she and Terumi completely despise one another. [[spoiler:Terumi hates her for using him [[{{Brainwashed}} against his will like a puppet]] during the Dark War. Nine in turn hates him for manipulating her best friend's (Trinity) love for Kazuma, to set him free only to then kill her, banish Nine into the [[EldritchLocation Boundary]], later do the same with Hakumen ([[TakingYouWithMe even if he got dragged in with him]]), and ultimately [[DaddyHadAGoodReasonForAbandoningYou force her husband Jubei to abandon their only daughter Kokonoe]]. And then also [[BurnTheOrphanage killed her sister]] after escaping the Boundary, and later used HER as his own [[ReforgedIntoAMinion personal puppet]]. Not to mention either directly or indirectly cause every ounce of pain and misery in her world.]] |
| 71 | ** Being an enemy of Terumi had also made Nine an enemy of Zamasu. Zamasu made it clear that he completely despises her for [[spoiler:willingly creating multiple [[EldritchAbomination Black Beasts]], and [[HumanSacrifice sacrificing a number of souls]] in the forging of the [[ArtifactOfDoom Nox Nyctores]] and for being human]]. |
| 72 | * When questioned why she would willingly work with Relius Clover, she replied that she knew how he thinks. Because Relius was [[spoiler:the leader of the Ten Sages]] she knew that if it can interest him, he'll willingly aid you no problem. This doesn't mean, however, that she [[TeethClenchedTeamwork enjoys working with him]]. In fact, she actually hates him. Not only in his involvement for everything wrong in her home world, but also for being a despicable father. |
| 73 | ** It's actually because of her hatred for {{abusive parents}} that lead her to becoming enemies with Medusa, Ren Gyokuen, Ghetsis and Ragyo. |
| 74 | * Madoka and her fellow magical girls weren't sure how to feel about the phantom. While they sympathized with her backstory, the girls understandably were hesitant to consider her not as an enemy, let alone something they could trust all except for one of them. That being Homura Akemi, the girl was more interesting to hear about [[spoiler:her goals of remaking the world to where both her family and everyone else could be happy. She wonders if there is potential in working with Nine]]. |
| 75 | ** Nine on her part, pities Homura and her former friends. Wishing for the best of them, and that everything will work out in the end. |
| 76 | * Besides the other Magical Girls, Nine also pities Zerf. For his curse of immortality and everyone he ever cared for dying around him. Nine admits that she probably would have ended up the same if something happened to Celica, and she almost did. |
| 77 | * Nine has a great amount of respect for both the likes of Bayonetta, and Edward Elric. Bayonetta for being a powerful witch who can take down waves after waves of enemies, and make it look [[ShowyInvincibleHero easy]] ''and'' [[HotWitch beautiful]]. Edward for being a protective older brother, willing to go to hell and back for his younger brother Alphonse. As well as being a [[BadassBookworm powerful and knowledgeable alchemist]]. |
| 78 | ** The meeting between them was an interesting one, Nine was simply traveling by he lonesome before she was attacked by a group of [[AngelicAbomination Angels from Paradiso]], she fended them off easily but was assisted by Bayonetta herself. After the fight they became more acquainted with one another and became allies. This new friendship later made her acquainted with Jeanne, Rodin and [[spoiler:Father Balder]]. |
| 79 | ** Her meeting with Edward was... also interesting. Ed had heard on how she created the [[HumanSacrifice Nox]] [[PoweredByAForsakenChild Nyctores]] and wanted to give her a piece of his mind. But deciding to know more about what she could have done instead, he went to [[Pantheon/SourcesOfInformation The Truth]] for answers. He was not prepared for what he was about to [[AwfulTruth learn]]. There was no other way. The literal possibility [[NotHyperbole didn't exist]]. There was no other [[AlternateUniverse reality]] where the Beast could have been defeated in a different manner. The sacrifice [[TheNeedsOfTheMany had to be made]]. When he confronted Nine about the subject, he apologized and for his mistake and for not fully understanding the situation. Nine said that it wasn't a problem, and asked if it would make him feel better that she was initially going to release the souls used after the war, but was stopped due to Terumi's betrayal. It did. |
| 80 | *** Although she'd never admit it. Nine is secretly jealous of how both Bayonetta and Edward were able to patch things up with their respective fathers. She initially ''tried' to work things out with hers. But in the end it only got worse than before. To this day she still hates him for building a weapon [[spoiler:with the design of using her sister Celica as a [[HumanSacrifice living sacrifice]]]]. |
| 81 | * By chance meeting, Nine had encountered Ochaco Uraraka, a young hero in training, with the power over [[GravityMaster gravity]]. After a quick conversation they soon took a liking to each other. Being a GravityMaster herself, Nine offered her help in improving her abilities and becoming a better hero. Their friendship grew after Nine learned that Ochaco plans to aid her family's financial problems by becoming a hero. This reminded Nine somewhat if her becoming one of the Six Heroes to insure that her younger sister Celica wouldn't have to perform what would have been a SenselessSacrifice to momentarily stop the Black Beast. |
| 82 | * Has recently been [[VideoGame/BlazBlueCrossTagBattle Clashed Fates]] with various other gods. This has led her to be introduced to team RWBY (and by extension team JNPR) and various members of both SEES and the Investigation Team. |
| 83 | ** She quickly became friends with the young Hunters and Huntresses. Ruby being fascinated with the weapons she created. Nine playfully calls Weiss 'princess', but Weiss corrects her as 'heiress'. Nine and Yang get along with one another, after realizing that they're very similar, [[{{Irony}} ironically]] Yang is more [[HairTriggerTemper calm]] and less [[KnightTemplarBigSister overprotective]] over her younger sister. Nine likes Blake for being calm, collective and some theorize that it also because she's a [[AllWitchesHaveCats cat]]. No word on what they think of that as of yet. |
| 84 | *** Her friendship with team RWBY lead to Cinder becoming an enemy. Nine on her part doesn't think much of her, or her "power". |
| 85 | ** In regards to the Persona users, Nine has grown fawn of [[Pantheon/TimePlacement Aigis]], and [[Pantheon/SpecializedNarratives Yukiko]] specifically. Believing that her daughter would enjoy meeting them. The two sisters also expressed enjoyment in meeting her, not knowing that they already knew her as Kokonoe. She also sees great potential in Yukiko becoming a witch, Nine is even considering making her an apprentice. |
| 86 | ** It was there when Nine had met Carmine. While they didn't start too badly, they ultimately found themselves becoming enemies. At the end of their tag team, Nine soon realized that he was completely [[AxCrazy insane]], an absolute [[{{Jerkass}} ass]] and more importantly, he called her [[BerserkButton old]] |
| 87 | * Upon hearing [[InterspeciesRomance how Jubei and Nine managed to give life to Kokonoe]], the reactions were mixed from shock to joy, and some even wanted to see how these two could even have sex with each other. |
| 88 | * Still very much missing the rest of her family, Nine set out to find a way to bring them in to Pantheon. Hoping that dog this, they can finally live the happy peaceful life that they were denied. |
| 89 | ** Nine was successful in ascending her younger sister Celica for having NoSenseOfDirection. The reuinion was heartfelt, and now she only needs to find a spot for her husband, Jubei. |
| 90 | * Can also be found in Pantheon/WitchesAndWizards. |
| 91 | * ''"What a shame, seems I've overestimated you."'' |

| 106 | * TeethClenchedTeamwork: [[Pantheon/HolyAuthorityAndPower Alexander Anderson]] |
| 107 | * Widely believed that if Horus is Satan to the Emperor's God then Sanguinius is Jesus. |
| 108 | ** Sanguinius died for your sins... just like Optimus Prime does on a daily basis. |
| 109 | * In the 41st millennium, an Imperium wide celebration called Sanguinala is held by Humanity to honor his sacrifice. |
| 110 | * To elaborate, Sanguinius is one of the twenty clone sons of the Emperor of Mankind created to serve as the template for the Emperor's Space Marine legions. In particular, Sanguinius is the Primarch of the Blood Angels, whose title is exactly as it suggests. [[GoldAndWhiteAreDivine The divine image of gold and white]], [[RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver the threatening image of red and black]], and the inward or outward presence of wings, are all common themes in the Blood Angels' armors, and their insignia is of a tear of blood in between six angel wings. Sanguinius for the most part embraces the gold and white side of things. |
| 111 | ** Despite inheriting the absolute nobility of their Primarch, the Blood Angels also have a cursed property. Due to a flaw in their gene-seed, in the carnage of close combat, they will seek blood, rendering them susceptible to a state called the Black Rage in which their senses are overwhelmed by bloodlust. During the rebellion of the Primarch Horus, known in short as the Horus Heresy, the treacherous Sons of Horus hoped to use the Black Rage to provoke Sanguinius' clan into coming at odds with the Emperor. Not only did Sanguinius refuse this, he stood steadfast at the side of the Emperor as a key force in the closing chapters of the war and even directly engaged Horus with the hope of redeeming him, only to be killed by his brother in battle. |
| 112 | * Though Sanguinius is very much active in the eternal war against Chaos and all enemies of Mankind within the Pantheon, the cruel reality is that his avatar upon the mortal realm is deceased after his great sacrifice. For a long time it was believed that the Angel had no means of influencing the mortal plain (much to the great satisfaction of Chaos), then rumor began to spread across the Pantheon of the Sanguinor. |
| 113 | ** A strange and mysterious entity began to take action across the galaxy, appearing as an glorious figure clad in golden armor and possessing of angelic wings, the Sanguinor came to the assistance of the Blood Angels during their darkest hours such as the Khartas Incident. The Exemplar of the Host mysteriously materialized and defeated the daemons of Khorne assailing the Sons of Sanguinius, including the infamous Bloodthirster, Ka'Bandha before vanishing just as mysteriously. |
| 114 | *** Little is known about the Sanguinor but many Gods theorize that it is the manifested embodiment of Sanguinius's nobility come to defend the Blood Angels and in extension Mankind, from the forces of Chaos and any other that dare threaten them |
| 115 | * Asura is forbidden from getting within 500 feet of anyone from the Blood Angels chapter unless Sanguinius is present. This has less to do with actual bad intent as it has to do with him having the effect of provoking the Black Rage. Even one of them losing it has the potential to kill lots of innocent people. |
| 116 | * Dracula has been trying to provoke the Black Rage in his chapter. He responded by breaking Dracula in half. It took weeks for Drac to recover from that. |
| 117 | * Some members of the House of Theater has tried to pass through the strange idea of making an "improved version" of Twilight, taking place in the Grimdarknes of the Future, with Sanguinius, a Sister of Battle and Leman Russ casting as the better versions of Edward, Bella and Jacob. Problem is that nobody wants to bring up the idea for the potential stars in case they deem it heretical. |
| 118 | * Despite possessing great love for all of his children (even if he is greatly bothered by their flaws), The Emperor loves Sanguinius far more than all of the others due to his heroic sacrifice during the Horus Heresy. To this day, The Emperor [[https://youtu.be/SfTbwGq4qNM&t=7m43s has forbidden any ill words to be made against the Pure One]]. |
| 119 | * Upon the orders of the Emperor, [[spoiler:Much like Vulkan and Leman Russ, he personally will take part in the "Deep Strike" front while deploying the entire Blood Angels chapter of Adeptus Astartes to Madoka's defense in "The Pantheonic Rebellion"]]. |
| 120 | * Hearing that his housemate Satan's former collaborator, the Lumen Sage called Balder, has been freed of a corrupting influence and turned to good, Sanguinius anticipated that Balder would eventually come to the Hall of Angels and end up in a battle with Satan. Assembling Tyrael and Manwë Sulimo, Sanguinius intervened in this battle, and the three good angels conversed with Balder to find out more about his story and the world he comes from. Inspired by Balder's selfless sacrifice and staunch belief in humanity's greatness, Sanguinius told his tale to the Emperor, who responded by calling in a successful case to the Court of the Gods resulting in Balder's wife Rosa being brought in as his Herald. Balder has sworn UndyingLoyalty to both Sanguinius and the Emperor as his thanks. |
| 121 | * Sanguinius and company also welcomed the demonic swordsman Sparda to the Pantheon with open arms, having already been made well aware of the Legendary Dark Knight. As Sanguinius informed Sparda when they met, the Emperor spoke of Sparda with the highest respect when he told the Primarch of Sparda's tale. |
| 122 | * Also has a spot in the House of [[Pantheon/{{Angels}} Otherness]]. |

| 168 | * The Seven Mortal Sins are the Demon Lords who rule over Hell. When the Archangel Lucifer was cast down from Heaven and fell into Hell, the Sins fought against her and sealed away her powers. However, Lucifer, with the aid of a demon named Leviathan and a human girl named Maria Totsuka, managed to defeat the Sins one by one and eventually allied with five of them against their former leader, Belial, [[spoiler:who was revealed to be a fallen angel formerly named Satanael and had been secretly working with Heaven to enact God's plan to purge both Hell and Earth]]. After the Sins [[spoiler:defeated the Archangel Michael]], Lucifer and Leviathan officially became the Demon Lords of Pride and Envy respectively, while Belial and Astaroth, the Demon Lord of Melancholy and the only remaining Sin who had remained loyal to her, accepted to be exiled to Earth. |
| 169 | * Related to the Seven Mortal Sins: |
| 170 | ** Fresh off her victory over the other Sins and subsequent ascension to leader, Lucifer's ego was as big as it had ever been. As far as she was concerned, it would be a trifling matter for her to overthrow the pretenders in the GUAC and install the Sins as the rightful leaders. She marched the other six members right up to the gates of the Labyrinth of Amala and challenged the Great Darkness and the other Lords, and this resulted in the most [[CurbStompBattle devastating beatdown the Sins had ever received]]: the Lords of Chaos decisively crushed the Sins, and Lucifer herself couldn't put so much as a scratch on her counterpart while she herself got beaten to an inch of her life. She ultimately made the agonizing decision to accept the Great Darkness's mercy, she and the other Sins joining the Morningstar Battalion [[JoinOrDie in exchange for their survival]]: even so, Lucifer vowed right to the Great Darkness's face that she would never stop getting stronger, and that one day she would surpass him and rectify this humiliation. To this, the Great Darkness [[PsychoticSmirk smirked]], answering that he was looking forward to it. |
| 171 | ** The Sins get along quite well with Chloe von Einzbern and Irene Adler. Asmodeus, in particular, approves of Chloe's obsession with french kissing girls and her [[LovableSexManiac surprisingly extensive knowledge about sex]] despite her young age. She was especially ecstatic to learn about how, in the Nasuverse, bodily fluids can replenish and transfer mana and the best way of doing it is through sex. Irene Adler has also gained their respect due to her cunning and intellect, which allowed to her to occasionally outsmart Sherlock Holmes himself. However, Leviathan has occasionally lashed out at Irene, specifically her ''Series/{{Sherlock}}'' incarnation, due to perceiving her as a rival for Lucifer's affection, although Irene is largely just amused by her outbursts and the other Sins having to restrain her. |
| 172 | ** The Sins are on bad terms with Azmodan, the Lord of Sin who is basically the amalgamation of the SevenDeadlySins. Pleased by their roles and looks, the Lesser Evil of Sin gave them an offer to serve him in exchange for access to his temple, in which they could further increase their power from sins done by Pantheon members and mortals alike. However, all of them rejected his offer to serve as his replacement heralds and were outright disgusted at the notion of calling him their "master", which has resulted in them being enemies with him from then on. |
| 173 | ** The Sins are also enemies with Father and his Homunculi, viewing him as being no different from the God they oppose and the Homunculi as near-mindless servants with a strong resemblance to the Seven Heavenly Virtues from their own universe. However, they managed to gain an ally in Greed the Avaricious after learning of how he had defected from Father [[spoiler:and simply wishes to have friends]]. While he's not too keen on the whole "corrupting and seducing humans to fall" thing, he does too recognize that they fight against a God who is no different than Father, so he allows them to periodically entertain at his bar so long as they ''don't'' imprint themselves on any of his staff or patrons. |
| 174 | ** All of the Sins (especially Satan) strongly dislike the Satan who serves YHVH. Being opposed to the God of their own universe, the Sins regard the idea of working directly for YHVH by judging and punishing humans on his behalf as well as serving as his scapegoat by facilitating a proxy war under YHVH's complete control. The Sins typically try to appeal to his Zayin persona, who shows a much kinder side to humanity than the uncaring force of Judgement he normally embodies. Unfortunately, their encounters with Satan typically result in them having to fight him rather than convincing him to join their side. |
| 175 | ** Among their enemies in the Pantheon, the Seven Mortal Sins have a strong enmity with the Phantom Thieves of Hearts. The Thieves, after all, specialize in brute-force removing the corruption that the Seven spread, and have a nasty habit of leaving the victims of these Changes of Heart to wallow in their guilt and despair afterwards. Despite the [[AssholeVictim nature]] of the Thieves' usual targets, even those like Lucifer [[EveryoneHasStandards think their actions are rather cruel]]. Among the Thieves, there is particular bad blood between Asmodeus and Ann Takamaki, particularly after the demon lord accurately pointed out Ann's use of lust to manipulate people for her own ends. Asmodeus has her faults, sure, but at least her lust is honest. Ann tends to blow her off as a 'deranged, predatory nymphomaniac'. Mammon and Haru have a rivalry as well, but theirs is far more subdued, both due to the [[{{Ojou}} natures]] [[AntiVillain of those involved]]. Haru feels for Mammon's plight, but she can't sit idly by while Mammon swindles others. Mammon likewise understands Haru's point of view, but she can't simply give up on trying to provide for her children, so she won't admit defeat so easily. |
| 176 | ** The Sins are also opposed by honorable and benevolent humans like Shazam, who captured the Deadly Sins of his world inside the Rock of Eternity, Link, who embodies the virtue of Courage and Samurai Jack, who conquered his inner darkness and achieved spiritual balance. Although the Sins don't really dislike any of them, they have on occasion clashed with them as they get in the way of the Sins' work. |
| 177 | ** Manwë has attempted to get the Sins to turn to the side of righteousness, partially out of guilt for failing to prevent Melkor's fall from grace. However, the Sins have all declined any offers of redemption due to their bad experiences with the God of their world. |
| 178 | ** The Sins were once confronted by Riku Asakura/Ultraman Geed, who is the son of Ultraman Belial, his universe's resident {{Satan}}. Having heard that their group included someone named Belial, he sought them out in order to see if they were a dangerous threat. Fortunately, he quickly realized that, although not exactly heroic, the Sins are relatively benign and even friendly. Upon hearing his story, the Sins came to respect him for defying his father and choosing to do what's right. |
| 179 | ** All of the Sins were rather disgusted upon learning of Dis. Lucifer and Satan, in particular, were disturbed by the information that they might be aspects of Dis that had spawned off of him. According to the mutterings of [[Pantheon/{{Knowledge}} Hermaeus Mora]] translated by Doctor [[Pantheon/{{Language}} Louise Banks]], Lucifer represents his competitive spirit and desire to beat others at their own game, while Satan represents his righteous fury and desire to fight strong opponents. Neither of them is comfortable thinking about it and the Sins as a whole prefer to avoid Dis as much as possible. |
| 180 | ** When Laharl learned of the ascension of nine {{Noble Demon}}s, he sought out the Mortal Sins in order to defeat them and firmly establish himself as the undisputed future Overlord. However, his immense fear of large breasts resulted in him fleeing (he insists on calling it a [[InsistentTerminology "tactical withdrawal"]]) from them almost immediately. The Sins, for their part, regard him as rather cute and Beelzebub, the only member of the group that he's willing to directly interact with, is on friendly terms with him. |
| 181 | ** Their (friendly) rivalry with the Seven Heavenly Virtues continues in the Pantheon, with the Angels trying (and usually failing) to train a Messiah to save humanity from the Sins. Belphegor was thrilled to see Sandalphon, the Demon Lord and Angel entering a spirited brainstorming session like old times. Oddly, Lucifer seemed a little misty-eyed after their initial confrontation: when pressed, she shrugged. |
| 182 | -->'''Lucifer:''' Those were the Virtues I knew. Bumbling, incompetent bootlickers for God, sure, but at least they put their money where their mouths are and actually do give a damn about humanity as they claim. |
| 183 | * Exclusive to Lucifer: |
| 184 | ** Despite having lost horribly to him, Lucifer has actually struck up a genuine friendship with her rival/employer, not least due to their views on humanity: while Lucifer doesn't ''quite'' believe that HumansAreSpecial like the Great Darkness does, she's still ultimately fond of them, [[HumansAreFlawed despite their flaws]]. In fact, the reason she fell was due to defying God, who had declared humanity beyond saving and decided to wipe them out: Lady Lucifer was the only one who had protested. The Great Darkness meanwhile has a great amount of respect for his newfound rival. Not only will she keep him on his toes and stop him from getting complacent, as far as he's concerned, she is Chaos at its absolute best: bold, intelligent, talented and individualistic, with fathomless ambition, a thirst to prove herself and a strong dislike for corrupt authority. If the impossible were to happen and she were to surpass him, he would be secure in the knowledge the GUAC would be in good hands. Of course, he has no intention of losing to her... |
| 185 | ** When Lucifer heard about another group called the Seven Deadly Sins and, specifically, about Escanor, the Lion's Sin of Pride, she sought him out in order to test his strength for herself. However, she was rather confused when she encountered him and found him to be a scrawny bartender rather than a mighty warrior. However, after he explained the nature of his power to her, she chose to wait until morning to properly challenge him. At sunrise, Lucifer was amazed and excited when she witnessed his transformation and change in demeanor. The fight itself, however, ended pretty quickly in Escanor's favor. Regardless, Lucifer remains on good terms with him and is determined to one day defeat him at his full strength. |
| 186 | ** Until the time Naoki Kashima accepts his destiny and becomes Grand General of the Morningstar Battalion, the position is filled by Lucifer. It's not what she had been aiming for, and she has no intention of staying in her position, but for the moment, it's acceptable. |
| 187 | * Exclusive to Leviathan: |
| 188 | ** Lady Lucifer's self-proclaimed sidekick and lover Leviathan is the Sin of Envy, and is usually content to just follow Lady Lucifer around like a lovesick puppy. She pushes hardest for Lucifer to take her revenge on her 'employer', despite Lucifer telling her time and again that the Sins aren't nearly ready for another go at the Lords. |
| 189 | ** To Lucifer's annoyance and the Great Darkness's bemusement, Leviathan has taken it upon herself to accost him at every opportunity: whether it's because of the pummeling her beloved Lucifer had endured at his hands or the [[GreenEyedMonster friendship the two have forged]] is unknown. One way or another, Levi ''really'' doesn't like him, and more than once Lucifer has had to drag her away by the ear, firmly telling her to ''[[BullyingADragon quit picking on the physical incarnation of Chaos, please]]''. Not helping the situation is the time Lucifer tried to remind Leviathan [[IncompatibleOrientation she has no interest in men]]...not noticing the [[{{Troll}} grinning Great Darkness taking the form of Louisa Ferre behind her back.]] Lucifer had to physically restrain the furious, [[{{Angrish}} blabbering]] Levi. Likewise, Leviathan despises Grandfather Paradox, the Lord of Chaos who handily defeated her. |
| 190 | ** Upon hearing of Lucifer's encounter with Escanor, Leviathan decided to track down her own counterpart in order to see what she was like. When she discovered that Diane, the Serpent's Sin of Envy, is a [[CuteGiant cute]] [[GiantWoman giant girl]], Leviathan was convinced that she would become her rival for Lucifer's affection and attacked her. After a brief fight, Diane made it clear that she was already [[OfficialCouple committed relationship]] with King and has no interest in women anyway. The two subsequently struck up a friendship and Leviathan, as an apology, cooked Diane a meal. Although Diane was hesitant to eat it due to how hideous it looked, she was pleasantly surprised to discover that it actually tasted quite delicious and even suggested that Leviathan should consider working at the Boar Hat for at least a short time, to which Leviathan replied that she wouldn't mind coming over at least. |
| 191 | ** Initially, Levi found a somewhat comfortable position as Lucifer's NumberTwo running the Morningstar Battalion when Lucifer was unavailable. [[GeneralFailure After one too many embarrassing screwups]], however, she was shunted off to the Yandere Squad in hopes of limiting the damage she can cause. |
| 192 | * Exclusive to Satan: |
| 193 | ** The fiery-tempered Satan, Mortal Sin of Wrath, is perhaps the most dedicated to the GUAC's cause after the Sins' absorption into it. All it had taken was the Great Darkness describing the sins of YHVH, and Satan was foaming at the mouth for a shot at Him. She serves now as a trainer for the Morningstar Battalion, and a [[DrillSergeantNasty ruthless, unforgiving one]] at that. Even the likes of the Demi-Fiend is out of breath by the end of her regiments. She enjoys sparring with her counterpart in the Lords, Senator Steven Armstrong: she may not really care one way or another about his philosophy lectures, but [[BloodKnight DAMN, he can throw a punch.]] |
| 194 | ** When Satan learned about another group called the Seven Deadly Sins who are led by a Demon named Meliodas, the Dragon's Sin of Wrath, she immediately sought him out and, despite her initial confusion at his child-like appearance, challenged him to a fight. The battle quickly escalated and the two ended up damaging several temples until it was finally put to a halt by the arrival of both the Mortal Sins and the Deadly Sins. Ultimately, Satan and Meliodas developed a respect for one another, as they both came to see each other as {{worthy opponent}}s and Meliodas has remarked that, similar to him, she's pretty [[NobleDemon noble]] and [[SatanIsGood kind]]. The frequently engage in rematches, although measures are taken to ensure that their fights stay contained. |
| 195 | ** In her off-time Satan enjoys volunteering at the House of Beasts, caring for the cute animals [[HiddenDepths she has a weakness for]]. It was there she had met Fluttershy, and despite the pegasus initially being nervous around the HotBlooded demon lord, they quickly bonded over their mutual likes. |
| 196 | ** Satan is friends with Atrocitus and she can often be seen discussing with him about how to properly use their anger against their enemies. Atrocitus regards her as an ideal candidate for becoming a Red Lantern, although Satan herself is reluctant to accept his offer due to not wanting to be dependent on a power that is not her own. |
| 197 | * Exclusive to Asmodeus: |
| 198 | ** Impish and seductive, the Mortal Sin of Lust Asmodeus is actually less inclined to simply indulge herself than one would think. She spends very little time in the House of Lust, instead working her charms on those of other Houses and luring them to carnal impulses. She sees little point, after all, in 'preaching to the choir'. Between managing sex shops and brothels with the help of Mammon, pole-dancing for multiple establishments, starring in erotic videos, moonlighting as a marriage councilor and being a freelance prostitute, many are quite surprised by the demon lord's ''insane'' work ethic, despite the dubious nature of said work: Asmodeus's grasp of 'consent' can be...tenuous at times. |
| 199 | ** Asmodeus quickly became '[[FriendsWithBenefits friends]]' with Kyu Sugardust, and with said friendship came both a rivalry with Princess Cadance and a hand in the situation on the [[Manga/ParallelParadise parallel world]] the two are quarrelling over. The demon lord of Lust was properly horrified by the idea of so many people [[SkewedPriorities dying as virgins]] and has thrown her full support behind Kyu's approach to the problem. Despite her admiration for her new 'senpai', Kyu still can't help but be unnerved at times at how cutthroat she can be: Asmodeus has suggested sabotaging the efforts to kill the God of Deep Jealousy, citing the need to break the curse as a motivating factor for the girls to mate. |
| 200 | ** Conversely, Asmodeus dislikes the Dazzlings, as they are diametrically opposed to each other: while the Dazzlings invoke hatred and spite through their music, Asmodeus spreads lust and almost considers herself a LoveGoddess. |
| 201 | ** Alipheese Fateburn XVI, Asmodeus's corresponding Lord, is honestly kind of weirded out by her: while she had secured a handy victory during their fight by constricting the demon lord in her crushing coils, [[TooKinkyToTorture Asmodeus didn't seem to mind all that much]]. |
| 202 | ** Out of curiosity, Asmodeus sought out her counterpart in the Seven Deadly Sins, Gowther, the Goat's Sin of Lust, in order to see what he was like. She was quickly smitten with his effeminate appearance and tried to seduce him. However, Gowther declined her offer due to [[spoiler:his past trauma over losing Nadja]]. Unfortunately, Asmodeus was instead [[ILoveYouBecauseICantControlYou turned on by his rejection]] and tried to force herself onto him, which escalated into a brief battle. Fortunately, the arrival of Lucifer quickly broke up the fight, and she scolded Asmodeus for once again trying to force herself upon an unwilling person. Surprisingly, Gowther was quite forgiving over the whole incident and even remains on friendly terms with her, although he repeatedly has to fend off her advances whenever they come across one another. |
| 203 | ** Asmodeus doesn't particularly like either the archdevil and other demon who share her name. Being an enemy of the GUAC, the Prince of Darkness quickly came to regard her as an enemy, although she already disliked him anyway due to [[HeManWomanHater his misogyny]]. She similarly came to dislike Asmodeus, one of the Princes of Hell, rather quickly, as she does not approve of his {{sadis|t}}m and {{smug|snake}}ness. |
| 204 | ** Asmodeus puts her wiles to work as Lucifer's spymaster, coaxing sensitive information out of weak-willed members of the other Alliances: her ability to tell what is and is not the truth with a sniff certainly comes in handy. The information she's gathered has been the catalyst for many disastrous defeats for the other Alliances. |
| 205 | * Exclusive to Mammon: |
| 206 | ** As shrewd and cutthroat as she is maternal and genial, Mammon lends her financial aid to the Morningstar Battalion, helping them stretch their already [[OffscreenVillainDarkMatter near-bottomless funds]] even further. When not doing so, she brews all manner of potions and poisons for the troops to use. Mammon also struck up a friendship with the Leader of the 3rd Street Saints; as their sinful counterpart (Greed), Mammon was quite impressed by their ability to transform opponents into money via their Bling-based powers, a devastating and economical ability. She's given them hints on how best to invest their income to further fill their coffers...advice that comes at a modest fee, of course. |
| 207 | ** Despite her penchant for greed, Mammon is one of the more sympathetic sins: a mother stuck with a massive tab after her husband died/vanished, she needed some way to care for her myriad children. The vast amount of the money she's garnered through her cutthroat methods go to them. Despite the Sins' herald Maria Totsuka having given her a lecture on caring for her children herself, old habits die hard, and she still finds herself preying on the more gullible members of the Pantheon from time to time. |
| 208 | ** Mammon is only reasonably good terms with Ban, the Fox's Sin of Greed. He was quite sympathetic to her circumstances and was happy to learn of how she genuinely cares for her children. However, the two did end up having a brief scuffle after Ban accidentally damaged (and intentionally stole) some her property. |
| 209 | ** Mammon frequently works together with the Corpus, an organization that worships the very concept of profit. Through them, she has engaged in various money-making activities such as secretly being behind all of the extremely popular mass-marketing/merchandising (softcore porn pictures, statues/figurines, etc.) to the rabid fanbases of all nine of the Mortal Sins, including herself. However, they've also criticized her for occasionally losing by, for example, using only the best quality materials for her merchandise, putting them financially in the red, so to speak, due to the losses from their manufacture and sale. |
| 210 | * Exclusive to Beelzebub |
| 211 | ** The House of Food had a collective OhCrap moment when it became known that another incarnation of Beelzebub had ascended into the Pantheon, Sure enough, the tiny demon lord showed up soon afterwards and proceeded to devour her way through enough food to feed a small army single-handedly...before throwing up and having to be carted away to the House of Health, so that she could be treated for a nasty case of indigestion. They learned from her that despite having a monstrous appetite and ability to pack away several times her own weight in food, an insatiable hunger doesn't translate to a truly bottomless belly. The very definition of gluttony, after all, is eating ''to excess''. This was, as she described, her curse: she can eat and eat until her stomach hurts and she can't move or have another bite, and ''[[HorrorHunger she never stops being hungry]]''. |
| 212 | ** Offered medicine to help mitigate her cravings, however, Beelzebub was rather leery: it would likely negatively affect her standing among the Sins, and not having her appetite after spending eons with it would be...weird. |
| 213 | ** Poor Beelzebub is incredibly scared of her counterpart in the Lords of Chaos: her first encounter with the huge, hideous fly had quickly devolved into her running away in tears from him as he chased her around raining lightning bolts down around her. Lucifer, surprised that the [[NervesOfSteel usually-stoic]] Beelzebub had such a reaction, questioned her after the fact and learned the little demon's embarrassing secret. Pteronarcophobia: [[WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes she is absolutely, positively terrified of]] [[{{Irony}} flies.]] Overall, Beelzebub and the Lord of Chaos who shares her name have surprisingly little in common: whereas the Prince of Lies is characterized by his UndyingLoyalty to the Great Darkness, Beelzebub is more concerned with eating well. Honestly, she considers the huge fly grosser than anything. |
| 214 | ** Beelzebub gets along very well with Merlin, the Boar's Sin of Gluttony. After explaining that the sin refers to her hunger for knowledge rather than food, Merlin expressed an interest in learning more about Beelzebub's capability to awaken the full potential power of her fellow demons. As a result, the two occasionally spend time together, talking about the differences in how their shared sin has defined them and, unsurprisingly, grabbing something to eat. |
| 215 | ** When not cooking for the GUAC's forces (or eating them out of house and home), Beelzebub makes use of her innate and unique ability to awaken the sleeping potential of demons that the Great Darkness deigns to reward. For their service in [[Fanfic/PantheonRagnarok the Ragnarok incident]], for example, the Dazzlings were rewarded with the ability to transform into their true Siren forms whenever they pleased and a massive boost to the potency of their songs. |
| 216 | * Exclusive to Belphegor: |
| 217 | ** Belphegor is...well, [[LazyBum Belphegor]]. The Sin of Sloth usually can't even be arsed to get fully dressed, let alone get involved in the GUAC's war. She wasn't even part of the initial strike against the Lords, having lost interest in the middle of Lucifer's RousingSpeech and wandered off before all hell had broken loose. When a furious, thoroughly-bruised Lucifer confronted her for her desertion, Belphegor shrugged, pointing out that unlike the other Sins, she hadn't ended up getting beaten up. Another win for Sloth, and she didn't even have to do anything! |
| 218 | ** Despite the benefits afforded to the Sins under the employ of the GUAC, such as cleaning services for her room, Belphegor's abode still remains an [[TrashOfTheTitans appalling trash heap]] of candy wrappers, dirty clothes, empty bags of potato chips and discarded cartons of Chinese food. When an exasperated Mammon pointed out that all that was needed was a quick phone call to the GUAC's janitors, Belphegor whined that the phone was too far away: indeed, it was on her nightstand, juuuuust out of reach of her tail. |
| 219 | ** Ultimately, the GUAC demanded ''some'' form of input from the Sin of Sloth, and in order to make them stop pestering her Belphegor created a comprehensive VR training program for the Morningstar Battalion, an act that took her all of ''forty-five minutes''. The Great Darkness was suitably astonished, and has dedicated a considerable amount of time trying to find a way to properly motivate Belphegor. |
| 220 | ** Belphegor takes her laziness very seriously: about the only time she'll willingly put in effort for anything is to make herself even more comfortable, and she will go to frankly incredible lengths for it. At point, she planted herself down by a river in the House of Beasts and refused to budge until she had caught a fish she thought would go well with her sake. It comes as no surprise that she found a kindred spirit in Robbie Rotten. |
| 221 | ** The closest Lord Belphegor has to a counterpart in the GUAC is Homura Akemi, and even then Homura represents Melancholy, not Sloth. Honestly, the two are barely aware of each other's existence: they didn't even fight during Lucifer's ill-fated coup due to, as mentioned above, Belphegor not even being there. |
| 222 | ** Belphegor is similarly disinterested in King, the Grizzly's Sin of Sloth. However, she has shown an interest in at least learning how he manages to levitate himself and his weapons, as it would allow her to fight without having to physically engage in combat. Although she was disappointed upon learning that King can't teach her his powers, the two remain on friendly terms. |
| 223 | ** When not in her room, Belphegor generally spends her time in the House of Gaming, trying to gather followers for her game world. Surprisingly, she's managed to befriend both the human and AI versions of Chiaki Nanami, both of whom share her love for video games. Although Belphegor remains rather apathetic to both of them, she doesn't mind hanging out with either of them as they don't force any work upon her. |
| 224 | * Exclusive to Belial and Astaroth: |
| 225 | ** Despite being deified alongside the other seven, the two former members of the Sins Belial and Astaroth spend by far less time in the Pantheon than their fellow demon lords. That's not to say they're totally out of the loop: Belial couldn't help but smirk when she heard of Lucifer's failure. Astaroth meanwhile spends much of her time practicing guitar and working toward her next album: despite the melancholy nature of her songs, she has no shortage of fans, among them Koneko Toujou. |
| 226 | ** Belial was surprised to discover that there are others in the pantheon with the same name as her. She gets along quite well with Belial and Nebiros, both of whom are similarly demon lords and were looking for more "friends" for their adopted daughter Alice. Although rather creeped out by Alice herself, Belial strongly respects both demon lords for their genuine love of Alice and their desire to protect her. On the other hand, Belial strongly dislikes the Lord of Lies, as he not only reminds her of her own manipulative behavior in the past, but also because she feels that he's besmirching her name and giving her a bad reputation. |
| 227 | ** Astaroth was rather disturbed to discover that she had gained an AbhorrentAdmirer in Lord Raptor, who had become infatuated with her because of her music and declared her to be yet another one of his "suitors". Fortunately, despite her [[ShrinkingViolet incredible insecurity]], she managed to fight him off with her scythe. Although she remains one of his targets, Belial and the other Sins have assured Astaroth that they'll protect her in case Raptor ever tries something again. |
| 228 | ** Despite not being part of the GUAC like the official sins, Astaroth has a counterpart Lord in Homura Akemi. The two are very alike in terms of motivation and attitude, though the Languid Diva was absolutely stunned to learn that Homura had betrayed the one who had shown her kindness [[MotiveMisidentification for the sake of power]]: she'd never even dream of betraying Belial, and from what she heard Madoka was an absolute saint compared to the Demon Lord of Vanity. Upon hearing the full story from The Great Darkness, however... |
| 229 | -->'''Astaroth:''' [[GratuitousRap I thought that your motivations were all totally lame, but now I know better, yo, your life's a total shame! I'm the Demon Lord of Melancholy, but your life was just crap! I feel so freakin' bad for you I can]] [[SarcasmFailure ...yeah, I can barely rap]]. ''Damn,'' girl... |

| 249 | * Adored by: Just about the entirety of the House of Pantheon/LoveAndAffection |
| 250 | * His ascension happened when a zoom spell of his accidentally warped him into the Pantheon instead of his desired location of Maella Abbey. This turned out to be because of some godesses with more powerful magic than him bringing him up for...[[ForegoneConclusion well, he ended up in the Halls of Lust; what do you think the reason was?]] After the Main House put a end to the ensuring fight for him, they found out that because of his appearance being so charismatic, [[DeadlyGaze he is able to use his looks as a form of combat]], [[http://www.siliconera.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/023-1.jpg literally freezing his enemies in place just by smiling]]. Thus, he was given the title of [[{{Bishonen}} Beautiful Males]]. |
| 251 | ** He actually inherited his title from Kaworu Nagisa. The latter was a bit peeved at first, but seeing Angelo himself, [[EvenTheGuysWantHim he noticeably mellowed out]]. The two do keep close tabs since, with Angelo even practicing some flirting techniques on him despite not being homosexual/bisexual. |
| 252 | * He was actually quite pleased to find a vast number of other sword users here (even if he technically uses a rapier), and has since been training with the likes of Link, Zoro and Yukimura. The latter actually led him to Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to train along with them as well. [[https://youtu.be/ePRcRi2wpis?t=4m16s This was the result of their training session]]. [[VideoGame/DragonQuestHeroesTheWorldTreesWoeAndTheBlightBelow Needless to say, he was quite pleased that this resulted with him sharing in another adventure with his crush Jessica]], [[BelligerentSexualTension who isn't that eager to see him once more, but glad to have him back]]. |
| 253 | ** While we're with her, he is currently trying to get her ascended proper into the Pantheon, with a couple ideas for her title. She is dreading her title should it ever arrive. |
| 254 | *** Despite him claiming to be interested in Jessica, [[ChivalrousPervert this hasn't stopped him from flirting with the House of Love, although he does politely turn down requests for actually getting active]]. |
| 255 | * Spends a decent amount of his time in the House of Love, and uses a good chunk of it teaching fellow deities the art of picking up women, like Brock and Brief, the latter who frequents the house. So far, Brock is able to at least make [[Pantheon/PhysicalAppearance Nurse Joy and Officer Jenny]] ''slightly'' giggle as he flirts with them before being dragged away by someone, and [[Pantheon/LustfulBehavior Panty]] has been eying Brief for longer periods of time, as if teasing him. [[ThrowTheDogABone Given that Brief has actually managed to have sex with Panty]], with her even [[RelationshipUpgrade returning his feelings by the end of her adventure]], several gods have since also signed up to be tutored by Angelo, with him just chuckling and accepting them one at a time. |
| 256 | ** He also drops by Mad Moxxi's temple from time to time to have a drink with her. Many deities assume [[IntoxicationEnsues drunken shenanigans in the bed occurs during this time]], but their relationship actually goes a bit deeper than that, given that they both had pasts about traumatized childhood and hiding it with suave, sexualized masks. For Angelo, he was the child with dead parents while Moxxi was the adult [[MamaBear who killed others to protect various children, including her own]]. He is one of the few who is allowed to see her HiddenDepths and not be threatened with death. |
| 257 | *** It is also for this reason that he has got along rather perfectly with Aphrodite, as they both aren't strangers to masking their insecurities about their past with energetic sexualized facades. Also helps that while Angelo enjoys flirting about her outer beauty, he also is very interested and engrossed in her inner beauty as well. That said, there is nothing stopping them from playfully flirting with each other from time to time. |
| 258 | * Interestingly enough, several deities from the House of Pantheon/TimeAndTemporality have picked up a timeline where Angelo's traveling companion, [[FanNickname Eight]], [[https://youtu.be/nQ9G7pKZBJ0?t=36m39s ends up marrying Jessica instead of Medea]]. While it did get an eyebrow raise from him, he later admitted that [[IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy if Jessica really wanted to marry him, he would not do anything to stop them]]. The more kind members of the House of Love applauded his answer, while the others are hoping for a potential rebound. |
| 259 | * He has offered his services to the House of Pantheon/{{Royalty}}, but has found out, to his surprise and pleasure, a good number of deities there can also take care of themselves. He is still on call in case things get too chaotic there and they need his help. |
| 260 | ** Upon finding out that Prince Charmles has made his way into the house itself, he personally went up to him and warned him that if he ever tries anything like he did back on his world, he would have to answer to him. Since than, the Prince has been making himself more scarce around areas where Angelo is usually seen. |
| 261 | ** He also has pledged his aide to Palutena, with her just giggling and ensuring him that she'll be fine but will have him on stand-by should she ever need him. |
| 262 | * Despite his constant teasing with women, including Jessica, his self-proclaimed crush, never, ''never'' attempt to harm one unjustly within his sight. Aside from having such legendary Charisma that [[DeadlyGaze literally looking at enemies can damage or paralyze them]], he is also an expert swordsman with a RoyalRapier in tow, [[GoodOldFisticuffs can use his own fists if he must]], has a MagicStaff that can daze and confuse enemies along with reflecting spells back at them, [[BowAndSwordInAccord is a pretty decent marksman with a bow and arrow]], and he can use spells and attacks that have to potential to OneHitKill enemies (he would of been a Greater God had his spells gained a better chance of hitting their marks). [[ChivalrousPervert He may be a lech, but he is one that views women are actual people]]. |
| 263 | ** He is also a very profound healer, and is able to even revive others with use of his magic. Due to this, he has caught the attention of Dokuro Mitsukai, and the two have been allying with each other to help protect other deities from time to time, both being very capable fighters who can heal and revive, but prefer actually using their weapons. |
| 264 | * Glenn Quagmire has been placed on his [[SophisticatedAsHell "Treat fecal matter with a higher respect than these people" list]] for his creepy and perverted ways, but believed he [[MoralEventHorizon crossed the line when he raped]] [[Pantheon/HairStyles Marge Simpson]] ([[https://youtu.be/KWvC5F_nilE even if she ended up liking it in the end]]). The only reason he hasn't acted is because [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold he appeared to be getting better as of late, and has even gained a standard for not tolerating abusive boyfriends]], [[CreatorBacklash with Quagmire insisting that it never even happened in the first place, something his superior Seth McFarlane can attest]]. The two will join up to stop other abusive spouses, but Angelo still has his eyes set on him to watch his movements. |
| 265 | ** He also has plans on protecting the Pantheon from a majority of the deities from the sub house of Pantheon/TaintedLove, with special mentions going to Claude Frollo, for being a corrupt priest, and Hans for being a traitor towards nobility. |
| 266 | *** Just because he may see you as sexually appealing doesn't mean he won't fight you if push comes to shove. Queen Sectonia learned that the hard way when insisting that he should be serving her due to her own beauty. He promptly ended her time trying to convince him by incapacitating her with his [[HolyHandGrenade "Pearly Gates" special move]]. She has since been more determined to try and gain control of him. |
| 267 | * Given his own father's abuse leading to the destruction of his mother and brother's reputation, Angelo holds a special disdain against Gods who give no concern for their kids. This puts him at odds against the Child Abuse Supporters and those who them, like Ragyo Kiryuin (also doesn't help given her...[[ParentalIncest special relationship]] with her daughters,) and Carol (He is slightly ''more'' lenient towards her, as [[EvenEvilHasStandards she also hates the Child Abuse Supporters, but she still has done a lot of heinous acts in her life]]). This also placed him on a favorable position with The Heroic Protector of Family and their supporters, like Toriel and [[Pantheon/SurrogateRelationships Whitebeard]]. |
| 268 | ** It was actually through Whitebeard that he met Portgas D Ace, with him hitting it off with Angelo after he heard of his history of [[BastardAngst being Gol D Roger's illegitimate son, reminding Angelo of his own illegitimate brother]], [[BastardBastard even if Ace never took things as far as Marcello did]]. The two have found a common bond and are working to try and get Angelo's brother ascended. |
| 269 | * He has gained a friendly rivalry with some Mario-verse and Final Fantasty deities, [[VideoGame/FortuneStreet going around with them time to time again trying to become rich entrepreneurs]]. The House of Pantheon/{{Commerce}} have raised their eyebrows upon hearing of this, and are considering bringing this game up for the whole Pantheon to play (for a fee of course). |
| 270 | ** He has also gained a...curious relationship with Celestia Ludenberg through this. While he heard of her own actions in her home world, he did understood the severity of her situation and why she killed in order to try and survive. Being reminded of his crush Jessica through her own mannerisms also helped sweetened his viewpoint of her. While Celestia is honored to have an templar interested in her, she doesn't approve of him cheating during Poker. The two have maintained connections with each other, although Celestia refuses to play any form of card game with him. |
| 271 | * Now that his half-brother Marcello has ascended, Angelo isn't entirely sure ''what'' to feel. He's quite keen not to start anything, but he's not necessarily opposed to going BashBrothers if necessary. |
| 272 | * After so long, he was finally glad to see Eight arrive in the Pantheon, a familiar and friendly face for him. He is also happy to join up with him to help ascend the other members of their party. |
| 273 | ** After one of Eight's matches with The Luminary [[VideoGame/SuperSmashBros as part of his role in Smash Bros,]] he heard from him that he found out that the Luminary [[https://i.redd.it/apoqq1q22s331.jpg actually had an outfit of him that he wears during fights.]] Deciding to head over to check it out for himself, [[ActuallyPrettyFunny he got a chuckle at how The Luminary looked in his outfit, joking about him stealing his style.]] The two became friends and Angelo sometimes watches over the fights he or Eight have in these Smash tournaments. |
| 274 | * Also one of the Guardians of Pantheon/{{Gender}}. |

| 290 | * Enemies: [[Pantheon/NamingReferences Kars, Esidisi, Whamuu]], evil undead deities |
| 291 | * A woman of beautiful looks and a calm demeanor, Lisa Lisa provided a bit of unorthodox help for Joseph Joestar and Caesar Zeppeli in their journey to defeat the Piller Men. She also had a bit of complicated history with Joeseph in that she is his mother. Lisa Lisa had to abandon her child initially because she became a national fugitive after killing a zombie that killed her husband. |
| 292 | * Lisa Lisa was in for a few surprises after she found her way to the Pantheon. Firstly, she found out that Joseph not only looked like what she had expected, but she was told that he was able to kick ass on a later adventure without her. More prominently, she heard that Caesar Zeppeli was still alive and that the Piller Men were still at large. Whatever may happen around this place, Lisa Lisa is willing to aid Joseph and Caesar in stopping any threats that they may come across. |
| 293 | * Her scarf is a prominent weapon of hers and utilizes it that way via her Ripple powers. Other scarf-wearers such as Strider Hiryu and Mikasa Ackerman are notably impressed by that feat. It remains to be seen if Lisa Lisa can utlize her Ripple power with other scarves that don't belong to her, such as those that belong to the Showa-era Kamen Riders (since those aforementioned scarves only appear in Rider form and not in regular form; though [[Pantheon/CyberneticsAndEnhancements Kotaro Minami]] doesn't have a scarf in general). |
| 294 | * Given that they are {{Action Girl}}s and [[Creator/AtsukoTanaka sound a bit similar to each other]], Lisa Lisa is on good terms with both Motoko Kusanagi and Bayonetta. A similar, [[Creator/WendeeLee though slightly different]], case can also be applied to Faye Valentine. |
| 295 | * The good-aligned members of the House of Pantheon/FamilyAndRelatives were a bit concerned at her abandoning her child when the latter was at such a young age. They were calmed down a bit after she told them the circumstances behind it. She doesn't like those who treat their child badly, or worse, abandoning said children without providing a legitimate reason for it, in any case. |
| 296 | * Caesar Zeppeli, a noted womanizer, has a good amount of respect for her and hasn't actively pursued a romantic relationship with her. Some other womanizers simply found her to look attractive regardless of her skills and have tried to hit on her. She has ignored these attempts for the time being. |
| 297 | ** Many of these aforementioned womanizers (except Caesar) were in for a bit of a surprise when they found out that [[OlderThanTheyLook despite looking like she could be in her 20's, she's actually around 50 years old]]. |
| 298 | * She got a bit annoyed after she found out that Joseph was spying on her whilst she was taking a bath. To be fair, he wasn't aware of the truth about Lisa Lisa at that point in time; there's also the fact that a fight between her and someone else happened during Joseph's peeping session. Ripple powers do an effective job at slowing down aging. |
| 299 | * Due to a zombie attacking her husband and putting her at risk, Lisa Lisa has a noticeable dislike towards the malicious undead deities, including those who can create undead. Even for someone like her, she has a feeling that taking down select undead such as the Nemesis T-Type will more difficult compared to that one zombie. |
| 300 | * [[Pantheon/LawAndJustice Phoenix Wright and Maya Fey]] once mistook Lisa Lisa for [[Franchise/AceAttorney Mia Fey]]. In fairness, [[{{Expy}} Mia did share quite a bit in common with Lisa Lisa, right down to looks and a scarf]]. |
| 301 | * It turns out she has quite the connection to the Joestar clan. It turns out that ''she'' was the infant that Jonathan Joestar, her father-in-law, told his wife to save. Lisa-Lisa was pleasantly surprised by this turn of events and made her appreciate her connection to the Joestar clan more. |

| 329 | * Opposed by: [[Pantheon/BluntWeapons Simon Belmont]] (though he's really more just very annoyed with her), [[Pantheon/WaterAndMoisture Percy Jackson]], [[Pantheon/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic the Mane Six]], Pegasus |
| 330 | * [[{{Pun}} Rocky]] Relationship: [[Pantheon/EarthAndRock the other Medusa]] |
| 331 | * OddFriendship: [[Pantheon/FanserviceAttires Seaport Princess]] |
| 332 | * Much like her mythological counterpart, the gorgon Medusa of the Nasuverse started out as an earth goddess along with her sisters Stheno and Euryale and they were conceived to be the Greek's ideal goddesses at the time. They were so beautiful that the jealous Athena transform them into monsters, forcing them to seclude themselves in the Shapeless Isle. There, Medusa was often mistreated by her sisters due to her being born differently than them which causes her to age normally unlike them who remain with child-like appearances, but Medusa didn't mind as she only cared about driving away humans. It's gotten to the point that she enjoyed doing so by drinking their blood rather than petrifying them which scares her sisters and made herself slowly monstrous-looking, eventually becoming the monstrous Gorgon who began seeing her sisters as a nuisance to her hunger. When they realize they have made her a monster, Stheno and Euryale sacrificed themselves as a form of atonement for their part in her downfall and acknowledging that the Medusa they knew was long gone. Alas, the Gorgon met her end in the hands of the hero Perseus when he used a mirror to deflect her petrifying eyes; a role so notable that the Throne of Heroes see worthy of ascension. |
| 333 | ** Later on, Medusa was summoned by Sakura Matou and her family for the Fifth Holy Grail War as a Rider Servant since [[CommonalityConnection she was very compatible to her by similar personalities and others' perceptions of them]]. As she has other things to do, Sakura gave the Book of False Attendant to her brother Shinji which allows him to participate in the Grail War. Her fate varies in each timeline; one has her dead [[spoiler:by Saber's Excalibur beam]], one has her [[DroppedABridgeOnHer swiftly killed]] [[spoiler:by Caster & Kuzuki]] and one has her alive enough to help Shirou save Sakura. In all of them, Shinji proves to be a terrible Master and Rider hates him for that. |
| 334 | * After the [[VisualNovel/FateHollowAtaraxia events against Avenger]], Medusa was ascended to the Trope Pantheons during its early days under the title of '''Goddess of {{Gorgeous Gorgon}}s''' due to being a sexy interpretation of the usually monstrous gorgons. She was a little embarrassed by taking it up seeing that she [[IAmNotPretty refuses to see herself as beautiful]], but she'll take what she can get as the real reason why she stayed was there to greet her. |
| 335 | * That very reason is Sakura Matou, joined by Shirou Emiya when they both were there to greet her in and all three realized that Rider ascended at the same time as her. And of course Rider is ever grateful to Shirou for taking care of her as usual and together, the two vow to always defend Sakura whenever she needs their help and console her in times of duress; she still denies claims of giving Shirou erotic dreams about her and Sakura as she's very private about it with some thinking Rider herself likes Shirou romantically, something she also vehemently denies. And of course, Rider had to restrain herself when she and Saber locked each other's gazes as their previous encounters were very hostile; even in low-stakes situations, their arguments can become violent enough to ''[[DisproportionateRetribution restart Heaven's Feel]]'' though they can [[EnemyMine hold them off to defend the same people they both protect together]]. |
| 336 | ** Joining her as Heralds are Medusa's sisters Stheno and Euryale who still belittle her like before though a few noticed it has since died down; their relationship still warrant a lot of criticism from the Hall of Pantheon/{{Siblings}} as they don't want poor Medusa belittled yet again and while Euryale is secretly listening underneath her facade, Stheno visibly ignores them as she feels humans like them[[note]]She hadn't noticed that not all of them are human[[/note]] are prying into her "family business". Of course when Sakura found out about the abuse, her dark self resurfaced and tortured them to teach them a lesson to not lay a hand on her Servant in her presence despite Medusa's protests; Euryale surprisingly listened but she's afraid she'll walk into a landmine if she's not careful around Sakura while Stheno dreads another moment with Dark Sakura and ended up staying away from her to prevent that. |
| 337 | ** Rider and Rin are also pretty amicable as well, and the former's glad that the latter and Sakura had finally patched up their differences enough to become real sisters again. Lancer too, with common ground in having Masters that never treated them like actual people and more like lapdogs though they treat each other like acquaintances most of the time; at least he's not crazy enough to hit on her so that's a plus. And of course, she's not thrilled to see Caster & Souichirou Kuzuki since both parties are very hostile and [[spoiler:they killed her]] in one timeline; the biggest beef is with Caster, since they both see too much of themselves in each other to the point that it's very irritating. They do call it off for a bit to condemn Saber for slacking off if their moods are good enough. For the most part, Rider's mostly neutral towards Taiga Fujimura but as she kept her memories from the Singularity when she was Ana, she still think Taiga should keep the jokes down. |
| 338 | ** It is to be expected for Rider to be wary of enemies returning, none more so than Gilgamesh, Saber Alter and Avenger. She and Gilgamesh obviously don't like each other and would rather hang out with his benevolent Caster self than go through his insufferability, distrusts Saber Alter even if she does protect Sakura every once in a while and can still tell she's still the same Saber deep down and is outright hostile at Avenger who while delighted that she has a vengeful form in Gorgon, is also actually concerned for her to the point that [[PetTheDog he talks her down from becoming Gorgon after her relentless wild hunt against him]]. |
| 339 | ** But her vehement hatred is reserved for none other than the Matous who have abused Sakura for all her life, and Shinji was such a poor Master to the point that Rider began hating seaweed since it reminds her of him and his hair and shares no sympathy for them even when they often die like cowards. Shinji and Zouken likewise are displeased that Rider's here since Sakura and her dark side is torture enough and they can't move forward with their agenda without her hawking on them. |
| 340 | ** Medusa was finally happy to see the Master of Chaldea once again as he treated her as kind as Sakura and Shirou was and is ready to serve by his side once again. Of course, also joining as Heralds are the separate Servant incarnations of Medusa, one is a precocious looking Lancer (often called Ana) who represents [[UsedToBeASweetKid her innocent past with her sisters and her longing feelings towards them]] and the other is her monstrous Avenger form in Gorgon who represents [[SuperpoweredEvilSide what Medusa became when her hunger for humans spirals out of control]]; as per the Pantheons' nature, she can assume their forms but chooses not do so and neither Medusas are usually in the same place at the same time unless their Master calls for it. Rider is also ready to fight the currently ascended Beasts once again, as they pose a threat to her world's history and especially Tiamat whose fight against she received memories of. |
| 341 | ** Has gotten along with the other Rider Servants Alexander The Great/Iskandar and Astolfo. Iskandar does let her use the name "Rider" since he himself prefers his own in order to expand his own conquest on the Pantheons, which Medusa allows as long he doesn't hurt her close ones. Astolfo got along with Medusa for being a fellow excellent rider, the fact that they used to have ''[[BadBoss shitty]]'' Masters (Celenike and Shinji, respectively) and suffering because of it until the ownership changed and even Medusa agreed that if she was in Astolfo's shoes, she'd take a cue from Medea and kill that Master outright. When she noted that if he discarded his virtue as a Paladin of Charlemagne so that he wouldn't have to suffer for it, Astolfo surprisingly agreed... but also doesn't want to discard that honor of his because he'd rather live through it, an answer Medusa can't help but smile at. |
| 342 | ** Rider had been summoned [[VideoGame/FateExtella into the Moon Cell in another timeline]] and she had faced opponents in Altera and Li Shuwen, recognizing them as formidable threats that needed to be stopped at the time (Altera especially). Now that they all have the same Master, they struggled to work together in sync without squabbling at best and fighting destructively at worst. |
| 343 | ** On the subject of the Moon Cell, Rider has met B.B. and two of the Sakura Five, Meltlilith and Passionlip and her first reaction to them is of confusion as they all [[IdenticalStranger share Sakura's face]]. After observing B.B.'s behaviour towards some hapless victims of her shenanigans, Rider concludes that she is not to be trusted further. She does prefer Meltlilith and Passionlip anyway, especially since they now serve the Master of Chaldea and the two likewise see her as reminiscent of their other member, Violet who had Servant data of her as part of her conception. |
| 344 | ** One person Rider did not expect to see again is Perseus, the hero who slayed her; they fought in combat for a while before culminating into a draw unlike before and they exchanged experiences in their respective Grail Wars, realizing they both changed a lot since their historical encounter. Still, they walked away as rivals with Rider considering him "a successful Shinji" while Perseus can tell she is more tempered than last time. |
| 345 | * As she also have Mystic Eyes, Rider got curious of other wielders of a different pair of Mystic Eyes from her multiverse which led her to Shiki Tohno and Shiki Ryougi. Rider and Ryougi recognized each other since working at Chaldea and Tohno had to stop himself from instinctively killing her, though that does not stop him from finding her to be nice. The Shikis do feel bad for her and have met her on separate occasions from time to time. |
| 346 | * As there are two other Medusas in the Pantheons, the Rider Servant would always insist on being called "Rider" to prevent further confusion and to distance herself from becoming Gorgon again. While Rider dislikes the mythological Medusa because her action gives gorgons a bad rap, she does feel sorry for being abuse by the Gods. The two also share their animosity towards Athena for turning them into the way they are and Athena likewise is still sour at them for reasons specific to their situations. |
| 347 | ** She however despises Medusa Gorgon for her treatment of Crona who she later befriends later on. The evil Medusa herself feels that Rider is too nice and resents the shared name and she's even more pissed off that because of it, she now is on the receiving end (and more well-deserved) of whipping on the head by Simon Belmont (or occasionally Trevor). Crona themself was at first intimidated from Rider's aura, but later on found out she is much more reserved than perceived when they hanged out at the House of Pantheon/{{Knowledge}}. |
| 348 | ** This also got her under the radar of those who faced an incarnation of Medusa such as Kratos, the aforementioned Simon, Pit and Haruto Soma/Kamen Rider Wizard. Kratos couldn't care less of her yet Rider avoids him because he not only did rips off the head of his world's Medusa, but also his world's Euryale which makes him very lethal even if [[RetiredMonster he's no longer vengeful]], Simon at first constantly whipped her while thinking she is the Medusa Heads' progenitor but stopped when he found out she was not truly the Medusa he knows and apologizes and finally, Pit and Haruto confronts Rider to see if it really was the Medusas they knew; relieved that she isn't them, they have befriended her though she is a little irked that their Medusas basically twisted her name. |
| 349 | * Rider would sometimes remark how her Riding skill is A+, which means that [[BadassDriver she can ride any type of vehicles effectively]], even a granny's bike and may even be able to pilot a mech. This has gotten her in touch with Carol Tea, Yusei Fudo and Tsubasa Kazanari, three renowned bike riders themselves; they all are amazed at Rider's ability to drive anything after they got her to drive the vehicles they can think of, even a dump truck. As such, she's a [[HonoraryTrueCompanion honorary member of the Legend Riders]] though they understand that she is not much interested in racing professionally when she turned them down. |
| 350 | ** Humorously, some of the more perverted deities suggest that her Riding skill also [[DoubleEntendre applies to a certain activity very well]]. Though Rider doesn't like those comments, she shrugs and just refers those deities to either Queen Medb or Anne Bonny and Mary Read. |
| 351 | * One of Medusa's newfound hobbies even before ascending is reading books as she loves the quietness of doing so which got her in contact with Shiena Kenmochi and Ami Mizuno; the three had it off pretty well after dispelling some dissonance of Rider's aura and often discuss books, their benefits and the content they provide. Another book-lover she ran into is Naoki Kashima when she was browsing another section of the Library; the two of them hit it off and became fast friends, and now they regularly meet to discuss literature and real life mythology. Uganda hasn't come up yet. |
| 352 | ** Relatedly, Rider was briefly attacked and nearly mugged by Flynn one time before he realized she wasn't the same Medusa he knew of old; Rider yet again is annoyed that she's basically the butt of mistaken identity at this point. |
| 353 | * She enjoys swimming as well which prompts Aoi Asahina to meet Rider and aside from finding her stunningly gorgeous, she now always invite Rider for swimming; Rider does accepts on a few occasions but she mostly turn them down since whenever she goes to the pool, most people ogle at her for her beauty which she finds disconcerting. On the subject of water, Rider managed to struck a friendship with Seaport Princess of all beings possibly because they both are monstrous beauties who are otherwise soft-spoken and protective of their own little sister figures; Rider does note that she [[Creator/YuiOgura sounds like Passionlip]] but she knows the two are pretty much separate people at this point. |
| 354 | * Rider is very protective towards Sakura and would do everything in her power to assure her safety. In fact, even if certain deities are friends with Rider, if any of them would to ever harm Sakura she wouldn't even hesitate to kill them; it's because of this very protective nature, minus the killing part that she is really good friends with both Gardevoir and Gallade. This is also why she opposed Tagachi, because his betrayal of his master goes against everything she stood for and he's one of the enemies she and Saber share enough to fight together; Tagachi himself is also being wary of her as much as he is with Saber since Rider is potentially more dangerous in ruthlessness. |
| 355 | ** Sometimes Rider's protective nature gets the best of her. When Percy Jackson accidentally bumped into Sakura one day, Rider got angry enough to the point that she immediately transformed into her Gorgon form and it took Shirou, Sakura and Ritsuka to calm her down and send the spooked demigod on his way. Rider is saddened she let the worst of her consumed her yet again and hopes to mend the bridge with Percy soon, but as of right now he's still scared of seeing for fearing of the earlier incident's repeat. |
| 356 | * Many were surprised that Rider is [[HeightAngst very sensitive about her height]] due to a difference during her birth that made her age normally unlike her sisters. This got her in touch with Karen Kohiruimaki (LLENN in the digital space) and Makoto Kino AKA Sailor Jupiter who also had to deal with their tall height issues for their whole life; Karen feels bad that Rider has gone through a lot worse than her and most of the time it's not even about her height so she resolves to bring her to quiet but fun places to cheer her up while Makoto gives Rider some pointers of handling her own height and being careful with it since she herself had to figure it out doing so during her own adventures. |
| 357 | * As she is both [[SnakesAreSexy gorgeous and snake-y]], Rider does get along well with Alice the 16th very well, along with having [[DarkAndTroubledPast terrible pasts]]. It also helps that they also have Artoria as a mutual contact but Alice is bummed that Rider and Artoria mostly don't get along so she hopes to mediate their scuffles if she can. Apophis is one snake deity Rider refuses to acknowledge, finding him evil due to wanting destruction to all and made Gorgon look like a saint in comparison. |
| 358 | ** Since she's also inhuman, Rider is not immune to Luka's scent which attracts monster girls to him romantically and unwillingly. After getting snapped out of seducing Luka by Alice, Rider profusely apologizes when she found out [[spoiler:they're both married]] but Alice forgave her and let it slide since it's normal for this to happen but she will not be so kind if Rider does seduce him by choice, a warning that the Servant eagerly complied as she never planned on doing so anyway. SCP-166 also relates to Rider in unintentionally attracting a lot of males with their beauty much to their utter dismay and seeing how 166 usually can't defend herself, Rider vows to be there if she needs it. |
| 359 | ** On one outing, Sakura invited a friend to join her and Rider for some shopping; that friend is Boa Hancock who felt an aura within Rider, causing the two to have a tense atmosphere at first. As time goes on, Rider and Hancock did broke the ice and they were surprised they have a lot in common, like being beautiful gorgons and going through some kind of abuse which makes Rider see her as a more combat-capable and confident Sakura and at the end of the day, they are now fast friends; something Sakura herself is happy to see. |
| 360 | * As she was seen sucking off Shirou's blood in his story's bad endings and it's due to her hunger on humans, Rider is [[ActuallyNotAVampire often mistaken for a vampire]] though while she does drink blood, it mostly to regain some mana. This mistake did made her become friends with Seras Victoria who exchanged her experiences with Rider and they sympathized with each other since they both can't take back their old life but they have learned to live with their new ones. And then there's Michael Morningstar, a {{Jerkass}} pseudo-vampire whose [[AbhorrentAdmirer obsession towards]] [[Pantheon/CharacterWriting Gwen Tennyson]] reminds her grimly of Shinji in a way (also herself to an extent when it comes to Ayako) and is biding her time until she has a good enough reason to spill his guts; Mike meanwhile is intimidated by her death glares and knowing that she is a gorgon, is worried to death of looking straight into her eyes. |
| 361 | * When the Mane Six heard that Rider could summon the actual Pegasus, who is her child, they wanted to meet him. Unfortunately for them, she could only [[BloodMagic summon him by drawing blood]] and when she slit her throat, the sight of the blood cause them to cringe and for [[Pantheon/FriendshipAndCamaraderie Fluttershy]] to faint. The Mane Six since then became scared of Rider ([[Pantheon/{{Colours}} Rainbow Dash]] and [[Pantheon/{{Personality}} Applejack]] meanwhile are on edge) which once again further bums her out; though in her defense, she hadn't considered that the Six hadn't seen worse than the threats they usually faced. |
| 362 | ** Speaking of horses, Rider heard that there is another version of Pegasus besides her own residing in the same hall as her and he is very loyal to Hercules. They meet and Pegasus was also rather horrified when she summoned her world's Pegasus by the same method; his fears died a little when he was aware she usually means no harm to anyone else but her enemies. |
| 363 | * Enemies of Sakura are also her enemies as well so Rider began antagonizing Ragyo Kiryuin, Skull Face, Kamen Rider Kaixa and Master Xehanort; Ragyo and Skull Face for being no better than Zouken and Shinji when it comes to abuse, Kusaka for disregarding the personhood of both her and Sakura, Xehanort for seeing potential in using Sakura in his schemes and Noob for threatening Sakura's life while brushing off her troubled past. All of them scoff at Rider but are preparing themselves in case she becomes Gorgon yet again to annihilate them. Rider is also protecting Sakura from King Allant XII and Manus as Allant wants Sakura to join him and Manus' temple might potentially turn her into something worse, something even more terrifying than Gorgon. |
| 364 | * At one chance, however, she [[https://78.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_maey54fE1g1r9k2n0o1_1280.jpg worked out a chibi form, aka "eco mode"]] in order to increase her mana economy, which caused Sakura and Shirou to {{Squee}} a lot. Then she shared that method to [[{{Moe}} Saber]]. [[https://78.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_maey54fE1g1r9k2n0o5_r1_1280.jpg Cue the Fate/Stay Night deities (and later, the entire pantheon) being drowned in nosebleed.]] And then, Rider admits she did so just to get close to Ayako, a girl she's obsessed with which did got her some scrutiny for. |

| 388 | * Rain, or Catherine Rain Bilstein, is the daughter of Dr. Edward Bilstein, Nobel Prize-winning German-American prestigious physicist and cybernetic mad EmperorScientist who fights with a Plasma Broadsword and leads the Fourth Empire in his universal conquest. Her beauty alone surprised everyone, even Hayato. |
| 389 | * Hayato and June are not pleased to see her again, given that she is one of the members of the Fourth Empire, and Bilstein's daughter to boot. |
| 390 | * Gained a rival in [[Pantheon/FamilyAndRelatives Talia al Ghul]], likely because both are [[DaddysLittleVillain proud villainous daughters]]. |
| 391 | * Being a daughter of an [[MadScientist evil scientist]] make her enemies with K' and Kula Diamond, which also suffered at the hands of evil scientists, but eventually rebelled against them and found a better life. For more hating points, Rain's plasma power [[AnIcePerson also creates ice]], the same element as Kula. |
| 392 | * Given their similarities, and having the same enemies, she teamed up with Raynare. Unsurprisingly, Issei and Rias are also Rain's enemies, after discovering some of her dirty laundry, which includes her plan of enslave all of the male population. |
| 393 | * Is not that found of scientists, given that she found her father's plan of creating a new race of "new human beings" with unparalleled Plasma power with her as the progenitor boring. |
| 394 | * Shares the [[Creator/MichikoNeya same voice actor]] as [[Pantheon/FighterArchetypes Chun-Li]], [[Pantheon/{{Costumes}} Rose]] and [[Pantheon/UnlivingBeings Hsien-ko]]. Aside for the fact that Rose have the incredible SoulPower, Rain doesn’t care. |
| 395 | * Rain joined the Sith Lords as they remind her of her companions from the Fourth Empire. However,given that her plan involves turning all the men from the Pantheon in her slaves, there's a good chance that she will backstab them later. |
| 396 | ** As expected, Rain have a huge dislike for the members from the The Rebel Alliance and New Republic, especially Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa, as they reminds her even further of enemies Hayato and June. Leia even dislikes Rain for being an EvilCounterpart of her, given that she stuck around with her father Bilstein during his descent of the Dark Side. |
| 397 | ** She doesn't like Yoda either, as while he reminds her of Gore, Yoda is also one of his enemies, made worse by the fact that Gore is an traitorous subordinate which tried to overthrow her father. |
| 398 | ** In regards to criminals, even Rain doesn’t like Jabba the Hut. He is the one of the few people that [[EvenEvilHasStandards she herself refuses to make him her slave]], likely because he is ugly. |
| 399 | ** But there's someone that Rain hates wery much: Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader. She expected him to be much, much worse than her own father. But instead, she saw one thing that she doesn't expected of Vader himself: a "whiny, pathetic figure" that only became evil due to his love for Padmé Amidala. Rain also hates Padmé for that some reasons, given that Anakin only became evil because "he lost his loved ones" rather than "he wanted to TakeOverTheWorld". |
| 400 | * Another one of her allies is [[Pantheon/RockAndMetal Lord Raptor]], as he reminds her of Shaker, one of her subordinates in the Fourth Empire. She is helping him in trying to gain Hsien-ko's love with one condition: Only if Lord Raptor helps her in her mission of capturing all the men on the Pantheon. However, unbeknownst to him, Rain is going to [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness dismiss him]] after she ends his mission. |
| 401 | * There's a rumor which implies that she is going to be the new leader of the Fourth Empire, but nothing was confirmed. Again, she is more interested in her own plans. |
| 402 | * Not to be confused with [[Pantheon/{{Nature}} a kombatant which fights with water]]. |

At first, everyone welcomes him into the community, but soon things begin to take a change for the worse. |

Edward was always willing to [[IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy sacrifice himself for his Kim]], and though he could successfully have been argued as acting in self-defense he [[spoiler:accepted exile as punishment for taking a life]]. |
| 419 | ** According to [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Scissorhands_(dance) one source]], he was created after his inventor saw his son being electrocuted while holding scissors, prompting him to create another “son”. |
| 420 | * Granted godhood as a reward for his selflessness, he now provides snow to the entire Pantheon as he channels his emotions into art. ([[FridgeLogic How else do you think he got all that ice?]]). |
| 421 | * He gets along well with Quasimodo due to both of them being grotesque creatures who have been shunned due to their appearances. Also gets along with the Addams family due to them being misunderstood freaks in the eyes of society. |
| 422 | * Sometimes visits Romeo and Juliet’s temple as his relationship with Kim is [[StarCrossedLovers a bit similar]] to their own relationship. His story is also seen as a gothic version of Beauty and the Beast. Belle and the Beast sympathized with him upon hearing how his story turned out by the end and sometimes visit his temple to help him out. |
| 423 | ** He is also acquainted with Emily and the two bonded over lost loves. For Emily, [[Creator/JohnnyDepp something about Edward]] reminded her of her former lover Victor. |
| 424 | ** Was also visited by Hinata Hyuga due to their similar devotion to those they love. |
| 425 | * Upon encountering Lydia Deetz, he mistook her for Kim due to [[Creator/WinonaRyder their similar faces]]. After that confusion was cleared, she became good friends with him as she found another person who’s just as strange and unusual as her. |
| 426 | ** The same thing happened when meeting Jo March. She and her sisters ended up enjoying Edward’s company. |
| 427 | * Several gods have felt sorry for him upon hearing about his story. Elphaba Thropp also felt a duty to protect those who were shunned out of fear due to their appearances (including Edward himself). He was also visited by Amélie, who was determined to help him find happiness. |
| 428 | * Of course, he had several detractors as well. Notably from Judge Frollo, who believed that Edward is evil and has tried to convince others of this. |
| 429 | * Doesn’t like Biff Tannen, seeing how he faced another JerkJock in Kim’s ex-boyfriend, Jim. The same goes for Gaston for how he treated Belle and the Beast. |
| 430 | * Mary has also taken a liking for the man after hearing how he was brought to another household after his “father” has died. He can be seen doing some hedgework in her garden. |
| 431 | * Gets compared with Frankenstein’s monster due to both of them being man-made creatures misunderstood by the people around them. Both also have a desire for love and companionship, but neither are able to gain the life they desire. |

| 453 | * FriendlyEnemy: [[spoiler:[[Pantheon/SwordsAndSabres Nu-13]] (former ally), [[Pantheon/{{Firearms}} Noel Vermillion]]]] (Though Mileena won't admit this and [[spoiler:Noel]] herself doesn't know it.) |
| 454 | * Mileena is a product of Shang Tsung's flesh pits, a mixed-up creation meant as a double/clone for Princess Kitana at the behest of Shao Kahn, who wanted to potentially replace Kitana should she ever discover the truth about her origins and turn against him. However, the mixture of Kitana's essence with that of a Tarkatan went awry, giving her the body of the Edenian heiress and the face of a female Baraka… complete with those elongated razor teeth and no closable lips. Presented and raised as Kitana's "sister" and given her own unique name, she has lived long with the consuming desire to prove her worth to Shao Kahn as well as KillAndReplace the princess, especially after the HeelRealization and HeelFaceTurn of both Kitana and their assassin comrade Jade finally came to pass. |
| 455 | * A lot of deities do call her sexy, so long as they're just looking at her from neck down. To assure they would do so, Mileena often made sure to dress herself in more revealing or provocative attire than either Kitana or Jade were willing to don. Even so, as if responding to a need for her to be able to flawlessly pass as Kitana, her teeth remained killer and grotesque but became considerably shorter at one point. |
| 456 | ** With the advent of Timeline X, another change took place. Her creation had taken place shortly before the Mortal Kombat tournaments, as well as saw her instantly attain a full adult form, rather than her being cloned and raised as a child like in the Midway Timeline. Related to the change in creation, she somehow attained lips in the center between the razor teeth. More deities find her attractive after this, though a lot of them are still too ashamed to admit it. Mileena is pleased by the few that do. That said, her {{creepy|Child}} [[TheCaligula mad]] [[{{Manchild}} womanchild]]-like mindset is usually a turn-off. |
| 457 | * Is dreaded by mirrors. A mere look of her face was enough to shatter mirrors. ANY mirrors, even in this House. |
| 458 | * Once snuck into the [[Pantheon/{{Craft}} House of Craft]] and surprisingly made a very well-crafted, but extremely grotesque Teddy Bear. She tried to shove it to the visiting Scorpion's face, then blood splattered everywhere. But it's clear that Mileena in her psychopathic childishness made Scorpion utterly hate Teddy Bears and avoids the House of Craft. |
| 459 | * Is considered to be a DistaffCounterpart to Scorpion, much to her slight chagrin. Scorpion, however, doesn't care about this. |
| 460 | * She's disgusted to see Kitana return to the Pantheon and is ready to fight her again. |
| 461 | ** On the other hand, she's entirely happy to see her ex-boyfriend Baraka joining the Pantheon. If anything, don't ask on how she slept with him, as Johnny Cage learned it the hard way. There are rumors that the one who sent the gossip is Reptile, but who knows. |
| 462 | * Used to be allies with AJ Lee, much to Kitana's own chagrin. That is until the Geek Goddess redeemed herself by teaming up with her "frenemy" Paige against the Bella Twins in [=WrestleMania=]. Nowadays, she absolutely hates her. |
| 463 | * After the death of her father, Mileena tried to assume the throne of Outworld, but was usurped by Kotal Kahn during the 25 years to come. She also gained possession of Shinnok's amulet and used it as a weapon. Her new consort Reiko helped her with planning battles. |
| 464 | ** [[spoiler:Unfortunately for her, her physical form was eaten by D'Vorah's disgusting spawn. She now hates Kotal Kahn and his entourage more than her sister, but would take solace in the fact that she has become a literal Goddess, while Kotal merely plays at being one. This lasted about until [[Pantheon/{{Slaughter}} Kotal finally ascended]]. When she heard about said ascension, she threw an extremely ugly temper tantrum. She didn't cause ''too'' much damage, thanks to Power Girl giving her a good smack in the face, but she was murderously moody for the following week. Even now, just mentioning Kotal to her face puts one at risk of getting their face chewed off.]] |
| 465 | ** [[spoiler:Had it not been for her physical form's death, Mileena would have awakened her clones to take back Outworld... or maybe her spirit still lives on in one of the clones. The records are a bit murky on this one.]] |
| 466 | ** [[spoiler:Then again, thanks to [[VideoGame/MortalKombat11 Kronika's temporal manipulations]], Mileena is now BackFromTheDead, and seeking to take Outworld's throne yet again. She's facing competition from Rain, however.]] |
| 467 | * Mileena once got into a fight with a young woman who wore a red coat with a sword. After looking at her opponent long enough to recognize that the woman had white hair, her red coat was similar to Ragna the Bloodedge's and that the woman's right eye was concealed, the former Mad Empress realized that [[spoiler:the woman she fought was once Nu-13 (now going by the name Juu-san), now more mentally stable than ever. Some time after the fight, Mileena learned that Nu had been successfully rehabilitabed by Noel Vermillion, who considered her a sister. Initially, Mileena was indiffernt towards Noel (being a Quasi-ally to Kitana notwithstanding), having fought her once in the past. That said, however, Mileena's far less angry over Nu's "betrayal" than she thought she would be after the ordeal happened; as all three are clones (formerly in Noel's case) and seeing Juu-san's situation in herself, [[OocIsSeriousBusiness an uncharacteristically somber Mileena laments to herself that she wished Kitana could love her as a sister]]. The former Mad Empress of Outworld has since quietly grown a semblance of respect for the Eye of the Azure.]] |

| 485 | * Respects: [[Pantheon/{{Thieves}} The Phantom Thieves of Hearts]] |
| 486 | * She preaches the ultimate battle strategy of [[CooldownHug embracing your opponents and erasing their will to fight]]. She protects the innocent from the evil, and the evil from themselves. She is capable of [[HeelRealization making even the most vile and demented villains]] [[LastSecondChance realize the error of their ways]] [[HeelFaceTurn and turn over a new leaf]]. She [[WalkingTheEarth walks the Earth]] disarming countries and unwillingly winning {{Fanservice}} awards. This is the legend of the Smiling Senshi. |
| 487 | * The Gunslinger Septet were hanging out one day having fun at the House of Pantheon/{{Weapons}}' shooting range, practicing their aim and skills. Then Vash the Stampede realized something: "[[WhatHappenedToTheMouse Where is Rushuna?]]" The other members also caught on to this and began searching for her, eventually leading to her dilapidated temple. A note posted there reads, "I will be gone for a while. I have more smiles to make! - Rushuna." Having a feeling that the Smiling Senshi is coming back to the Pantheons after an unquestioned absence, the Septet decided to go to the Court of the Gods to keep her temple up. |
| 488 | ** The Court decreed that Rushuna needs a new title, so Vash suggested she has BlastingItOutOfTheirHands while keeping BathingBeauty because respectively: like him, Rushuna disarms her enemies by shooting their hands and she is constantly seen bathing. They agreed with such a position and declared her temple to be renovated by the Master Builders Four. When it is done, the Septet organized a party with Pinkie Pie to celebrate her return. And Rushuna did return; she was greeted with a surprise from them, happy that they put a smile to her face. |
| 489 | * Supposedly, she is even more capable with firearms than Vash, but decided his title should stay his because she doesn't like showing off. For his part, he likes her well enough, as do others, such as Dante (a red-cloaked super-fighter who loves swords and guns just like Vash) and Kisuke Urahara (who also has a color-coded outfit including a hat and has on occasion formed a "sword-and-guns" duo with her). They would gladly concur that having a beautiful lady around who's also skilled with guns and takes their colorful styles in stride is pretty cool. |
| 490 | * While she isn't open to mortal propositions (luckily for the proposer, she's among those who'll laugh and either playfully dodge the question or deliberately misunderstand it, and she's always up for being friends), she's quite open to giving anyone, deity or not, a [[MarshmallowHell big ol']] [[CooldownHug hug]] to cheer them up or quell their violent tendencies if they'd prove to be more of a danger than usual. It's universally agreed that she's really good at this, probably the absolute best among any of the Pantheons. Her [[MostCommonSuperpower vast real estate holdings]] help a little (...okay, a ''lot''), but her [[AllLovingHero personality]] is agreed upon to be the main factor. |
| 491 | ** This is why she admired the recently ascended wrestler named Bayley who, despite being one of the best wrestlers in the world, much prefers hugging and making people happy when she's outside the ropes. One day they finally met each other and hugged for over a minute. It would soon be called one of the most tender moments in the Pantheon's history. |
| 492 | * She's practically Noel Vermillion's CoolBigSis, as she tutored her in gun-fighting and tried to help her self-esteem issues a lot, despite being far more buxom than Noel could ever hope to be. Mami later joins in her session, and Rushuna has also been teaching her about genuine smiles rather than [[StepfordSmiler smiles to cover one's issues]]. |
| 493 | ** After realizing what Vergil did to Noel, Rushuna comforts her, saying that she's not an unworthy addition to the pantheon, and has decided that Vergil will pay for hurting her, never forgiving him. What's worse is that [[MightMakesRight he seeks strength]], which reminded her too much of [[BigBad the Jester]]. Vergil has nothing but disgust for her for defending Noel and having endless faith in everyone. |
| 494 | * Whenever she's busy, she leaves the GunKata class to Coyote Starrk as a substitute to train them. She's quite impressed with his skills, even if they are a little more… [[PersonOfMassDestruction destructive]] than what she's comfortable with. She's also been helping him with [[IJustWantToHaveFriends his desire to find more friends]] and [[BrilliantButLazy lazy habits]]. |
| 495 | * Rushuna is delighted that there are other deities [[ForHappiness striving for a world where everyone smiles]]. Yuya and Yuzu are fascinated that her ultimate battle strategy is super effective even in a world where guns cause fear while Rushuna is amazed that they have learned to fight for everyone's [[MemeticMutation EGAO]] from Yuya's father Yushou Sakaki, though it takes a while and some trials for Yuya to fully understand it. The doctor Emu Hojo is happy that another person who values smiles exists although he is a bit nervous when it comes to [[WorstAid Rushuna's healing skills]]. Wander and Sylvia find a lot of common ground with her like traveling around places and meeting and changing people along the way. Even Miyuki Hoshizora befriended her for sharing the same ideals of happiness for everyone. |
| 496 | ** Pinkie Pie could '''not''' believe she hasn't noticed Rushuna until now, and they got along swimmingly with how much they want to see everybody smile. Though Rushuna would prefer the party pony be… a little more sensitive of others' feelings; throwing parties isn't everybody's cup of tea that would lead to smiles. |
| 497 | * Has met other gunslingers outside of the Gunslinger Septet. John Marston is reminded of Bonnie [=MacFarlane=] when he meets Rushuna due to both being cheerful blonde girls in wild west settings. Lucky Luke and Roland Deschain are impressed at her skills but also respect her wish to not fight let alone with guns. Roland even warned her of Randall Flagg, who aims to spread chaos just by appearing at anywhere which Rushuna agrees to look out for. Jesse [=McCree=] once hit on her at a bar, but once he gets to know her he has nothing but respect and admiration for her dedication to protect everyone and changing villains for the better which [=McCree=] feels that is the justice he has been seeking. The Lone Ranger is also impressed at her shooting skills and philosophy, which perfectly aligns with his; together along with their respective heralds, they dispatch numerous enemies in the Pantheon. |
| 498 | ** Hol Horse also has hit on her once but Rushuna has heard of him being a mercenary who has no qualms with taking lives for a paycheck or with working with someone as vile as [[Pantheon/DodgingAndDefensiveness J.]] [[SerialRapist Geil]] as long as they serve as his backup, giving her a bad feeling. The rest of their encounter is rather weird; Hol Horse then summon his revolver Stand, Emperor... which Rushuna can't even see and shoot out of his hands due to not being a Stand user. Other reasons Hol Horse can't properly fight her is that he {{Wouldnt Hit A Girl}}, [[ImperialStormtrooperMarksmanshipAcademy his aim is terrible]] despite having numerous advantages from his Stand unless his target is unimportant to his current attention and she is too busy dodging [[EpicFail while laughing at his failures]]. Humiliated, Hol Horse fled and Rushuna left amused from this bizarre meeting. |
| 499 | ---> '''Rushuna''': Pffthahahaha! Your weapon is pointing your finger at someone! You're so funny! Ahahaha! |
| 500 | ---> '''Hol Horse''': Dammit, hold still! *''shoots and misses''* |
| 501 | ---> '''Rushuna''': *''sidesteps''* Hahahaha! I don't know how you did that but it's not working! |
| 502 | ** Much like Hol Horse, Yosemite Sam is also seeking to duel Rushuna. They did and unsurprisingly, [[ImprobableAimingSkills Rushuna won]]. Since then, he has been itching for a rematch against her, seeing that he keeps losing to Lucky Luke and Vash. |
| 503 | ** Relatedly, she has disagreements with Revy, Rattlesnake Jake and Erron Black. Revy is often dismissive of others and their needs, only wanting her rewards, Jake will kill his targets yet he does have a code of honor and Black find her his ideal kind of woman (girls with guns), not helped by the fact that he too will kill for money. Rushuna vows to erase their will to cause violence, which sadly neither of them wanted to let go. |
| 504 | ** Vincent Godfrey is someone Rushuna cannot tolerate. He kills adventurers on a regular basis (she is one), he [[ChronicBackstabbingDisorder constantly backstabs]] and is [[AxCrazy too crazy beyond recognition]]; he can even be considered the {{Evil Counterpart}} to Rushuna and the Gunslinger Septet in general. Rushuna is aware she cannot erase his will from fighting, because he is [[MoralEventHorizon past that point for a very long time]]. |
| 505 | * Being a force for peace, Rushuna has befriended with Lacus Clyne, Relena Darlian and Nunnally Lamperouge as they too wanted a world with no violence and are naturally [[ActualPacifist pacifists]], much like [[TheChooserOfTheOne her superior Lady Tenshi]]. They are also impressed at the fact that she has exceptional marksmanship yet chose to disarm her enemies instead; Rushuna humbly accept their compliment and even offered to defend them during diplomatic meetings. Since she also treats everyone with kindness and turned her enemies into friends, she also got along swimmingly with Mai Tokiha and Nanoha Takamachi. |
| 506 | ** Richard Nixon once said, "The greatest honor history can bestow is the title of peacemaker." Rushuna wholeheartedly agrees with these words... except the person saying them have [[SanitySlippage become so corrupt as millennia go by]] and [[OracularHead being reduced to a head]], [[ThenLetMeBeEvil becoming the]] [[HistoricalVillainUpgrade very villain everyone is making him out to be]] which disappointed Rushuna. Nonetheless, she still believes Nixon can be good again, but he has since long disown those words and called Rushuna '[[DumbBlonde a naive bimbo]]' [[SillyRabbitIdealismIsForKids to believe them]], cementing his enmity towards her. |
| 507 | * A notable trait of hers is that [[BathingBeauty she is seen bathing really often]], even showing a lot of enthusiasm for it. She is even seen bathing with fellow {{Fanservice}} bringers Mai Shiranui, Kasumi and Yoko Littner; Kasumi finds a lot of common ground with Rushuna in [[NiceGirl politeness]] and [[LightningBruiser abilities]], Mai is amazed that those who lost their will to fight gets to be [[MarshmallowHell squished by her (Rushuna) boobs]] and Yoko is impressed that she sniped everyone's hands with just a revolver. Rushuna even joins Yoko for wolfing down during buffets at the House of Food, since they are {{Big Eater}}s. |
| 508 | * Has given encouragement to Shanoa by declaring her smile to be as gorgeous as her back, and Chihiro Fujisaki by promising to protect his smile just like what Yuya and Emu did and supporting his journey to find his strength. Shanoa is flattered by her words and take them to heart while Chihiro is grateful and happy that he befriended another trustworthy person who also believes in him. |
| 509 | * Reaper and Widowmaker are enemies the Smiling Senshi is looking out for. Reaper being a MalevolentMaskedMan reminds her of the power-hungry Jester and he is also affiliated with Godfrey while Widowmaker is a ColdSniper who currently [[LackOfEmpathy lacks empathy]] for her targets. She has a better time with Tracer, who also had a hard time with the villainous two and told her that [[spoiler:they used to be good people]]. With this knowledge, Rushuna joins her in stopping their schemes while hoping that they will change for the better due [[RousseauWasRight to her beliefs]]. |
| 510 | * She is saddened and disappointed that those like Melkor and Yuki Terumi want to stay evil and do unspeakable actions, and is also infuriated at Terumi for not only riling her up, but also threatening her friends as well. Melkor is wary of her ultimate battle strategy, which diminishes his numbers and is just as effective as Wander's friendliness. Killers like the Wild Hunt and the Brave Companions are also on her enemies list since she doesn't take losses of lives too well [[spoiler:given that in one continuity, her friend Koto was killed in a strike by a Juttensen assassin]]. |
| 511 | ** [[TheSocialDarwinist Social darwinism]] is a philosophy Rushuna disagrees given that the Jester believes so, thus Charles zi Britannia and Albert Wesker are such like-minded people she needs to stop. Prime Minister Honest also proves to be someone so unbearable though luckily for her, he has a slim chance of seeing the error of his evil ways though everyone else, '''ESPECIALLY''' Night Raid say otherwise. |
| 512 | * Is glad that the Phantom Thieves of Hearts are giving villains the change of heart they needed, [[EveryoneHasStandards though she also finds their methods questionable]]. The thieves themselves are amazed of her ultimate battle strategy and its effectiveness, prompting them (well, mostly [[Pantheon/{{Thieves}} Ren]], [[Pantheon/HeroicArchetypes Morgana]] and [[Pantheon/{{School}} Makoto]]) to consider following her methods as an option since they too [[ThouShaltNotKill opposed killing anyone]] (unless they're Shadows). |
| 513 | * Not to be confused with Souji Tendou. They have met and got along swimmingly, with Rushuna enjoying his cooking and Souji being amazed at her skills. In a sparring match, Rushuna knows her speed is outmatched by his due to the ZECT system granted to him but luckily Souji wouldn't push an offer to one; he is a Kamen Rider, after all. Also not to be confused for Karen Tendo as well, though they too have met and got along for also having unwavering optimism and a penchant for bathing; Karen even joins Rushuna for such. |
| 514 | * ''"Um... would you like to join me for a bath?"'' |
| 515 | * Also found in Pantheon/{{Firearms}}, though since she is a pacifistic person, she doesn't go there often. |

| 535 | * Out of all the friends Shantae has, Rottytops was one of the most turbulent in the young Half-Genie's life. During Shantae's first adventure, Rotty and she encountered each other at the Zombie Caravan. After a foot race through the forest, the rest is history. On a bay day, she wants coffee and will do anything to get it, including [[EnemyMine teaming up with Risky Boots]] and helping Hypno Baron bring upon the end of the world[[note]]In actually, he's just summoning Squid Baron to use his image for merchandising purposes[[/note]]. |
| 536 | ** When Rottytops saw Shantae in the Pantheon, she ran at a dead sprint, crashing into her friend. While she was sore after that, Shantae's reception to her undead friend's arrival in the Pantheon was just as warm. |
| 537 | ** She made it clear to Risky that [[UndyingLoyalty she'll stay loyal to Shantae]], even if it will cost her a head and a leg. The latter simply scoffed and dealt with her business elsewhere. |
| 538 | * Her temple manifests as the Zombie Caravan. By night, it stays put, allowing Rotty a chance to explore the Pantheon. By day, it rides off, mysteriously untrackable by most gods. The only place where it'll never stop at is the House of Betrayal, as it's still a very sore spot for the undead girl owing to her being blackmailed by Risky Boots to betray Shantae by kidnapping her Uncle Mimic. |
| 539 | * Of all the people Shantae interacted with in her home world, she's one to love being in fanservice-heavy attires, rivaling the Pirate Queen in flaunting her stuff. Against both Shantae and Risky's wishes, she's brought her [[GoGoEnslavement "space princess" bikini]] with her and could be seen on occasion wondering around the Pantheon wearing it. |
| 540 | ** Adding onto her love of shameless cosplaying, she brought up yet another costume. [[spoiler: That being a half-genie garb during her time as Fillin the Blank or Ima Goodgirl, or whatever AtrociousAlias she comes up with next.]] |
| 541 | * In her home realm, zombies come in two flavors: sane and insane. Rottytops is one of the sane zombies who haven't lost their sanity, [[MustHaveCaffeine but to keep her sanity, she needs to drink coffee constantly]]. |
| 542 | ** That's when she bumped into Philip J. Fry. On her way to get her fill of coffee for the day, she encountered Fry buying coffee. While Fry was curious about why she's green and needs coffee, she talks about how zombies in her world need coffee unless they want to become feral zombies. After teasing about wanting to eat his brain, both of them became coffee drinking buddies. |
| 543 | * Despite being a zombie, she hates her fellow zombies in the House of the Undead, especially when it comes to hearing horror stories about zombie apocalypses happening in different worlds. To that end, she makes an effort to avoid most zombie apocalypse survivors. |
| 544 | ** The worst story she heard revolved around the Resident Evil world. Hearing about Albert Wesker's exploits in using viruses like the T-Virus to weed out the weak and take out the world, she took it upon herself to declare him an enemy. Wesker looks down upon her, since even in her native world, their zombies are far weaker than what he or the myriad of viruses he has can pull out. |
| 545 | * The House of Knowledge found out that Rottytops was not always a mischievous zombie. [[WasOnceAMan In her home realm, her brothers and she were once human, but due to unknown circumstances, they became the zombie folk we recognize to this day]]. Rottytops remains silent on that topic, and that's how it'll remain. |
| 546 | * One figure she was told to never try to fight was Galeem and Dharkon. Upon hearing about how they effectively killed her best friend and used her spirit as a puppet in their world, she became furious and swore to fight them if they dare try to attack her again. |
| 547 | * One day in the House of Nature, she recieved a friend request over the World Wide Web[[note]][[{{Pun}} An entire array of spider webs in the forest]][[/note]]. Upon going out to find whoever sent the request, she stumbled upon Sans the Skeleton, with his own World Wide Web. After a hurricane of bad web and spider puns, the two became fast friends. As for Papyrus, he's curious as to why she's a human, yet not a human whenever he isn't hiding from the duo's bad puns. |
| 548 | * She has an affinity for most spiders in the Pantheon. That being said, she'd prefer to avoid Shelob and other evil/oblivion spider gods, as she doesn't want another GiantSpider to try to eat her as one tried to in ''Pirate's Curse''. |
| 549 | ** On that note, she met Muffet as a lot of gods have: [[StickySituation walking into a thick and sticky web trap laid down by her's truly]]. Despite the usual reception being less than warm for most other gods, Rotty took it in stride, deciding to play with Muffet and her spiders. As such, Muffet lets her go on her way without much trouble, inviting her to play with her spiders at a later date. |
| 550 | * Using the World Wide Web, she found out about some spider-themed superheroes. Deciding to try to find the webslingers, she went over to the Hall of Unpopularity, hearing this is where Spider-Man resides outside the House of Heroes. To her glee, he was there, though he wasn't alone. Looking down, descends Spider-Gwen, Spider-Man II, Spider-Woman, and Spinnerette. After getting to know them and learn how they got their spider powers, she called them her spider-people friends with enthusiasm. |
| 551 | ** That being said, Peter Parker didn't trust the zombie initially, as she [[ComicBook/MarvelZombies brought back bad memories of an alternative dimension where he, among the World's Greatest in that universe, turned into zombies by an alien virus]]. Rotty, saddened to hear about that Spider-Man becoming a zombie in an alternative universe, gives Spider-Man a hug of comfort while tears started to form. Taken aback, Peter comforts her by saying that this isn't that universe, and that she's her own hero, regardless if she's a zombie or a human. Even as a zombie, he stated, he made sure to use his powers with great responsibility. |
| 552 | ** Spinnerette's origin story was different, in that she was blasted in a Genetic Infusion Chamber instead of being bit by a radioactive spider. Unfortunately for the six-armed superhero, Rotty had a riot when she learned where she shoots her webs from, though she was quickly corrected that it was her lower back that shoots web, not her butt. They shot it off well otherwise, liking how powerful and kind she was, though showing off her excellent physique is a bonus, too. |

| 569 | * Kogami used to be an Inspector for the Public Safety Bureau, but after learning his partner got killed, things went downhill from there and he got demoted to Enforcer. He worked together alongside Akane Tsunemori in stopping Shogo Makishima, but in the end, [[spoiler:Kogami went on the run]]. If there's one thing that's consistent about him, it's that he's pretty handsome. |
| 570 | * Upon his ascension, he was reunited with Akane Tsunemori because she was very happy for him being able to ascend in the pantheon. On the other hand, Shogo Makishima was not very pleased, [[WorthyOpponent yet thrilled]], to see him again after their last encounters back in their world. Whenever Makishima attempts to commit the same atrocities, Kogami is happy to work with Akane again to stop Makishima's plans. |
| 571 | * Due to being a [[spoiler:former]] law enforcer, Kogami had found a kinship in the form of Shinnosuke Tomari as the Kamen Rider had sympathize with him because both were demoted due to them unable to protect their respective partners in different circumstances, although the Rider makes him wonder too that Kogami is [[Creator/TomokazuSeki sounded like]] [[http://kamenrider.wikia.com/wiki/Roidmude_027 a certain Roidmude that copied his Rider System]] [[http://kamenrider.wikia.com/wiki/Type_HIGH_SPEED!_The_True_Power!_Type_High_Speed_is_Born! from a certain incident]]. [[spoiler:However, Shinnosuke's partner Krim Steinbelt sees Kogami as another potential user of the Drive System as he gives Kogami the Shift Wild and a copy of the Drive Driver in case a new known battle awaits]]. |
| 572 | * His current status as a [[spoiler:Vigilante]] had impressed the dark knight itself, Bruce Wayne, due to their dedication of hunting criminals outside of the law. It is interesting that both shared their hate towards the Joker for committing heinous acts as both Bruce and Kogami starts to work together to stop the Joker's plans. This also made him allies with Yuri Lowell due to them sharing the same status as well. |
| 573 | * Kogami had found a kinship in both Takatora Kureshima and Kiritsugu Emiya for three reasons, both having the same [[Creator/GenUrobuchi superior]] in their respective stories, they shared some [[{{Expy}} similar traits]], and they shared the same [[BadassInANiceSuit style of clothing]]. |
| 574 | * Kogami became allies with Jin Kazama due to them being TallDarkAndHandsome, as well as the latter was impress with the former's fighting instincts as both men had decided to train each other in a hand-to-hand combat to improve their fighting skills. |
| 575 | * He also made friends with both Domon Kasshu and Kanji Tatsumi due to them are [[Creator/TomokazuSeki sounded alike to each other]]. On the the other hand, he made enemies with Gilgamesh and Bryan Fury as well due to the same reasons. |
| 576 | * His opinions on Tenjuro Banno is shared with Akane and Shinnosuke, he's nothing but a Abusive Mad Scientist bent on taking over the world through his master plan. Because of this he joins forces with them to stop Banno's ambitions. |
| 577 | * Insists that he is not the spokesperson or mascot of [[MemeticMutation Hyper-Oats]] [[https://i.ytimg.com/vi/4CD2oS4Y2zY/maxresdefault.jpg despite some trying to make it look like such]]. Others find it amusing he would say something that sounds ridiculous in a serious tone. |

| 596 | * Snow White was the princess of a far away kingdom, who in spite of not being considered conventionally attractive still loved herself the way she was. When her father, the King, went missing and her kingdom was taken over by her evil stepmother, Queen Regina, she went on a journey to rescue him employing the help of the Fearless Seven (composed of their leader Merlin, Arthur, Jack, Hans and triplets Pino, Noki and Kio) a group of once-beautiful young men cursed by a fairy to become ugly goblins whenever they're looked at by someone as punishment for their arrogance and vanity. She also found herself transformed into a skinny conventionally attractive woman thanks to a pair of shiny red shoes that Regina meant to use to give herself an eternally young and beautiful appearance which also helped her avoid detection from her evil stepmother. Though she initially was only helped thanks to the Seven seeing her skinny form as beautiful and trying to undo their curse with a kiss form her out of shallow attraction, they eventually all accepted her real self and helped her out of genuine altruism, with Merlin falling in love with her at the same time which broke the curse when they kissed. Eventually they would defeat Regina, free the kingdom from her evil and save Snow White's father; and with Snow White and Merlin having truly fallen in love, the two married and lived happily ever after, with the rest of the Seven eventually finding their own true love. |
| 597 | * Snow White saw her ascension happen shortly after hers and Merlin's wedding. She was quite a welcome sight for deities in the Pantheon. Her temple is a classic-style castle adorned with various things to her preferences. Occasionally she can be spotted with her husband, Merlin, often when the latter is invited by Snow White to visit her new friends in the Pantheon. The rest of the Fearless Seven also follow suit on occasions, generally eager to find out what is out there in the Pantheon for them to see. |
| 598 | * She met up with a fellow worthy user of Excalibur, King Arthur, the legendary King found himself impressed by her pure heart and good nature that allowed her to wield her world's Excalibur. Arthur recognizes her bravery and determination in her successful quest to save her father and kingdom from the clutches of her evil stepmother, Regina. Snow White was a bit puzzled to learn that one of Arthur's main guides in his life was an alternate version of her husband, Merlin, though one that has a wise old appearance to him instead of that of a youthful wizard, regardless she made allies with the wizard all the same. |
| 599 | * She's faced issues with her body image and being fat, though not because she had a low view of her body herself, but instead because others were mean to her over her body type and initially before their character development even her friends, the Seven, treated her badly up until she put the red shoes that made her thinner in looks. That said she did have her father love and support her no matter what. As such she made friends with Po, as the panda knows what it is like to be mocked, unappreciated and ridiculed for being fat; quite hilariously, Po recounts his experiences with the Furious Five as not being that different from what she went through with the Seven, though obviously with different contexts each. |
| 600 | * Has a lot of contempt for Mother Gothel due to her stepmother's uncanny similarities to the youth seeking woman, especially in regards to their apathy at killing people to keep their youth, Rapunzel found herself becoming friends with Snow White over this, even making some jokes about having to make nicknames for her and her Disney counterpart to avoid confusing them when referring to them by name. Eugene/Flynn Rider also made friends with Snow White due to her experiences and was pretty impressed to hear of what she accomplished in her adventures. |
| 601 | * Quasimodo suffered discrimination and stigma for his "hideous" appearance, including being locked up in a tower, getting physically and verbally abused by his adoptive father figure, Frollo, and being separated from the world at large. This earned him empathy and sympathy from White, who could understand what it's like to be held in contempt by others and rejected for physical appearances. Quasimodo was happy to hear that she found her true love, as he's never really managed to find his special one (except in [[WesternAnimation/TheHunchbackOfNotreDameII one]] instance). She's also developed a high amount of disdain for Frollo as a result, viewing him not too different from her stepmother. |
| 602 | * Lady Tremaine was also another enemy of hers, owing it to the abusive stepmother making Cinderella's life a living hell for no reason other than her amusement. Even more when she found out about Tremaine's attempts to outright murder Cinderella after trying to undo the latter improving her life out of petty spite. Tremaine has been wary of incurring the wrath of White for this reason, as she knows from word of mouth that the princess is quite capable of kicking butts by herself and might not be as merciful as Cinderella if they cross paths. |
| 603 | * Snow White also hates those who would emotionally and physically harm or kill their children (specially adopted) for their selfish needs, two such parents were Shadow Weaver and Ghetsis Harmonia who both have adopted children whom they abused in different ways as they grew up, causing their children to have self-esteem issues. As a result of this enmity, she developed a friendship with their children Catra and Adora |
| 604 | * Lillie was a girl who connected with Snow White over having image issues as a result of abuse from their respective mothers (though Snow White's came from her stepmother rather than her biological mother), while Snow White was glad to hear that Lillie's mother, Lusamine, was ultimately able to turn into a better person even if it took almost literally beating sense into her in many worlds, while in another one she was instead a much better person from the start. |
| 605 | * Snow White also became friends with the crystal gems, mostly Garnet and Amethyst. Garnet admired that Snow White was able to help others grow out of fairy tale cliches of love at first sight and shallow admiration of perceived physical beauty, while also being willing to do the right thing and help her people; while Amethyst and her bonded over self-esteem issues relating to their bodies as Amethyst had once personal problems with her smaller size compared to other Quartzes especially given how Jasper taunted her about it not unlike Snow White having issues with her body image thanks to others being very cruel about their perception of her, both are happy that each other managed to eventually overcome that adversity. |
| 606 | * Shrek and Fiona are no strangers to unusual fairy tale twists and not falling within the usual standards for beauty, especially Fiona, as such the duo and their friends befriended Snow White almost as soon as they met. While at it, White heard of their many adventures which she was interested in and also came to know of the cruel Fairy Godmother, who unlike the fairy of her world was a shallow beauty-obsessed, manipulative and power-hungry individual willing to resort to heavily amoral actions such as using love potions all to get what she wants, which earned the fairy Snow's hatred. |
| 607 | * Those who drain others' lifeforce to sustain themselves are quite high on her enemy list, thanks to her experiences with her stepmother, Queen Regina, draining her subjects' lifeforce and turning them into trees to keep herself young through the red shoes that would be produced by the magic involved, one of such enemies was [[Pantheon/FormsOfImmortality Eliza]] who has this ability as her MO and is not a good person herself, however Eliza for now views Snow as beneath her notice. |
| 608 | * Princess Cadance was glad to hear of the way that Snow White found true love and was able to make her love interest, Merlin, see the true beauty of her real self and not the idealized version of Snow White with the red shoes. Cadance also recognized her bravery and determination in saving her people from her evil stepmother, especially as she had a lot of problems stacked against her that could've signaled her end, yet never stopped until she saved her kingdom regardless. |
| 609 | * Has found out that there are other "Snow Whites" in the Pantheon, such as [[Pantheon/OffensivePowers Weiss Schnee]] and [[Pantheon/HuntersAndSlayers Koyuki Himekawa]] to list a few, this led to a meeting between the similarly named women and eventually to a curious friendship after some major bonding time with each other. White was at first off-put by Weiss' more jerkish behavior but she eventually came around that. As for Koyuki, she felt bad for all the things she's had to go through including her hunting down fellow magical girls and living with the trauma it left on her. |

| 625 | * Tomoyo gets along surprisingly well with Kanji Tatsumi, Hidetora Tōjō and Tatsumi Oga because despite all being delinquents; which Tomoyo used to be due to her parents marital issues; they're all nice people who wouldn't actively go out and hurt people. |
| 626 | * Tomoyo is friends with Chie Satonaka and Chun-Li as they fight using the same fighting style as Tomoyo. |
| 627 | * If you're interacting with Tomoyo make sure you have a reason to interact with her because if she finds out you have no reason to talk with her there's a high chance your conversation will end with Tomoyo beating the shit out of you because when she was mortal she would often get talked to by one mortal by the name of Sunohara for no reason and their conversations would end with Tomoyo beating the shit out of him because he did something stupid. |
| 628 | * Tomoyo was surprised to find out that another deity by the name of Amu Hinamori also had a surprisingly [[EvenTheGirlsWantHer large number of female admirers]] when they were mortal. |
| 629 | * There are many deities who shares [[Creator/HoukoKuwashima Tomoyo's voice]] such as Kasumi, Itsuki Myoudouin, Presea Combatir and Cliana Rimskaya and Tomoyo gets along well with them. |
| 630 | * It's not uncommon to see Tomoyo at the Pantheon's academy working with the student council as she was StudentCouncilPresident of her school while she was still mortal. |
| 631 | ** This reason is why Tomoyo gets along well with Honoka Kosaka, Eli Ayase and Wakabe Saegusa as they were also StudentCouncilPresident while they were mortal. |
| 632 | * Anyone who is contemplating suicide will be met with severe resistance from Tomoyo as her brothers [[BungledSuicide attempted suicide]] was what got her parents to stop fighting and converted Tomoyo from a delinquent herself from a legitimately nice person who doesn't want to see anyone else go through the sadness of thinking they lost a family member. |

She eventually [[SheCleansUpNicely cleaned herself up]] summenting the trope for good. Thus "Ugly Betty" landed a spot in the Pantheon. |
| 654 | ** She is not the first Betty in the {{Multiverse}}. She is merely one in a long line of Bettys from various countries. One can trace the first one as Beatriz Pinzón from Colombia. All of them have become high ranking followers in her temple. |
| 655 | ** There was strong competition from [[Series/ModernFamily Alex Dunphy]] whom many saw as more attractive than her sister [[InformedAttractiveness Haley Dunphy]]. She was content to settle with High Priest as she would at least not be seen as uglier than Betty. |
| 656 | * Ironically enough, she works at a fashion magazine. Many wondered how she survived all the scathing she endured, to which Betty stated she always wanted to make sure the magazine succeeded. She was proven right, all while improving her own fashion sense. |
| 657 | * Libby had long awaited the day a goddess would ascend on her ugliness. Her posse were quick to ridicule her from her onset. They were shocked to see her own her ugliness. Betty endured various attempts to BreakTheCutie to no effect. Some more humiliation will do little to deter her. |
| 658 | * While trying to build up her own network of friends, she bumped into Daria and Jane. Daria quickly snarked on how a fashion designer could have such bad tastes for such a long time. Betty replied that she didn't care much about what others thought of what she wore. After contemplating on what she said next, she acknowledged that she was less ugly than she thought the holder would be. That was seen as a compliment, and Betty has tried to join their posse ever since with little luck. Daria at least dresses down those who still call Betty ugly. |
| 659 | * She was glad to find many others in the Pantheon accused of being ugly. Liz Lemon was quick to join her side to rally against those who demean her followers, even creating a website for them to voice their concerns. Unfortunately, the website was shut down following a virus sent by Trollkaiger. Betty looks to Liz for guidance in her job in London. |
| 660 | * Willow also came by for comfort. The witch went through some rough bullying back in high school. Her powers helped somewhat and her tenure in college helped Willow gain confidence in herself. |
| 661 | * Women aren't the only ones who suffer from the trope. Chuck gets constant flack for managing to get a girl as hot as Sarah, even when some consider him to be fairly attractive. He promises to help her out in any case. |
| 662 | * Is one of the greatest proponents of Meg's departure from the Fallen. She was appalled with Seth and his followers' treatment of the teen and even she doesn't think that Meg is all that unattractive. Betty has made it her duty to get her out of there. This will be a tall order for the two of them as Seth sees no incentive of improving the character's life. |
| 663 | * Throughout the show, Betty saw butterflies throughout her journey. She had wondered where they came from and why they were attracted to her. By the show's end, she figured out the insect represented her transportation into a more beautiful woman. When she found out there was a butterfly god, she made her way to meet Montra Leo. Betty now pays regular tribute to the {{Kaiju}} as an act of gratitude. |
| 664 | * Has recently made it her mission to find Jun Kazama. The reason? Her mother died early and she had hoped that Jun may have information on how she's doing in the aftermath. She even teamed up with Jin for help. They have been unsuccessful so far, but she still has hope that she will be successful. |
