In my experience, I find that one learns more about their homeland the more they travel, and only here have I found such a resolute drive, a full-blooded desire to go beyond limits and tradition to achieve the impossible. You can appreciate the irony: Guangdong itself is an impossible creation, yet its people devote themselves to unending, relentless aspiration in spite of it."'' |

| 52 | * Enemies: It's hard to usually pinpoint enemies since those allied to a specific Chief Executive sometimes opposes the other Chief Executives.

| 62 | * Pitied by: Various good-aligned [[Pantheon/SonyInteractiveEntertainment Sony]] deities (Morita Akio) |
| 63 | * The State of Guangdong is an artificial Japanese colonial state carved out of China in a timeline where the Axis had an total victory over the Allies in UsefulNotes/WorldWarII. Initially intended to be a retirement home for Japanese soldiers envisioned by Tōjō Hideki, after he was ousted from power at the end of the war, it instead became a playground of unrestrained capitalism, filled with crime, corruption and poverty, overseen by supposedly the Kanton Minseifu, the Guangdong Civil Administration, but in practice is mostly instead run by the biggest corporations in Guangdong, a fact that has been enforced with the Yasuda Crisis, which saw the Chief Executive Suzuki Teiichi being given a Vote of No Confidence and forced to resign, with the other corporate leaders forcing the now-powerless Representative Director of Yasuda Bank's Guangdong Branch Matsuzawa Takuji to the seat so that the now-disgraced Yasuda Bank can take even more brunt of their unpopular decisions, after which a power vacuum among the Sony, Matsushita Electric[[note]]Better known under their international and current OTL name Panasonic[[/note]] and Fujitsu corporations occurs to take the seat of Chief Executive. Both Sony and Fujitsu would invite their respective allies, Cheung Kong and Hitachi to further strengthen their position, but Hitachi seeks to take the throne backed by their Manchurian and IJA connections to turn it into a Manchurian industrial state. |
| 64 | * While the Chief Executives are barely recognizable in our own world with the exception of Morita Akio and Ibuka Masaru who founded Sony in our timeline, nevertheless, the corporations that they are associated with are easily more remembered than them most of the time. In a world where a new order was founded where National Socialism and Fascism is seen a potentially viable ideology, it [[HistoricalVillainUpgrade too corrupted the corporations and the people associated with them]]: Ibuka Masaru would instead betray Morita Akio for Fujitsu caused by Tokyo Telecommunications' slow growth, starting a rivalry that did not end up as a friendship in our timeline, Matsushita Masaharu would attempt to further strengthen Matsushita Electric's hold on Guangdong to turn it into a corporate empire, and Komai Kenichirō will brutally implement the Manchurian system to industrialize Guangdong at the expense of the workers. |
| 65 | * How the Chief Executives rose to the position was a pellicular one. The House of Commerce doesn't typically award titles through merits or something else- rather, they are to be held in an auction for various titles. One of them in particular was the OneNationUnderCopyright trope, an auction held with the cooperation with the House of Leadership. Though the competition was fierce, in the end, the various Chief Executives of Guangdong managed to secure the title for themselves, an extremely rare moment of cooperation between them considering the ongoing behind-the-scenes plotting against each other. With this, they have managed to ascend to another sector of the House of Commerce where the corporations compete each other in a product cycle, a fierce race of both quality control and advertising which can be heard around the various Houses. Additionally, they also managed to branch out to weapons development, with them sending out weapons not just for profit, but to meet the goals they have to fulfill so that their weapon is seen as a potentially profitable venture, which is also why they sell them to the House of Weapons regardless of the outcome of various battles. Marketing in Guangdong is a tough business, and it is no different when they ascended to divinity. |
| 66 | * Even though they rule over Guangdong, they are tiny flies compared to the Buy N' Large corporation, who managed to effectively become the ''world'' government rather than simply rule a nation. Reactions have been mixed, of course: Morita Akio, upon hearing of CEO Shelby Forthright's attempts to undo the damages done by his own corporation, has vowed to avoid the pitfalls that Buy N' Large fell into by enforcing his various environmental bills so that the Lion Rock Spirit can breathe more fresh air in Guangdong, Matsushita Masaharu is impressed by their growth and sheer magnitude of rule, but like Morita, he will use his environmental bills to prevent his corporate empire from facing the same fate as Buy N' Large, if only because such an environment would be inefficient for him, Ibuka Masaru laments that the technology that the managed to invent instead resulted in much of humanity becoming lazy in the future, and plans to reverse engineer their technology so that it instead results in a more hard-working humanity and to further his meritocratic vision, resulting in him opposing AUTO for allowing for such complacency, and Komai Kenichirō's reasons are similar, albeit using it to virtually turn the entire population into money-makers regardless of the cost of human life. |
| 67 | * (Triads) |
| 68 | * The Yakuza are among the many criminals that lie within Guangdong, and have a fierce rivalry with the Triads, and it's not uncommon for a downright MobWar to occur every now once then. Ibuka has allied with them due to Morita allying with the Triads for their assistance towards the Chinese underclass, and much like the above, Matsushita is gathering evidence to prevent them from causing too much of a ruckus, and Komai occasionally uses them to kowtow anyone that threatens Hitachi's regime. Kazuma Kiryu and Goro Majima, in spite of being Yakuza, downright oppose Ibuka and Komai for this, and for Kiryu in particular, Komai reminds him too much of Kyohei Jingu, a CorruptPolitician who also happened to be greedy. On the other hand, they are willing to work with Matsushita, albeit ''very'' reluctantly due to also being willing to dissolute part of the Yakuza as well, and even then, Kiryu feels way too uncomfortable with Matsushita due his motivations reminding him of Tsuneo Iwami, though Matsushita has assured that unlike him, he doesn't plan to betray his father any time soon. Yousuke Otona prefers to not be around the Chief Executives, aside from Morita as they remind him way too much of his past as a yakuza enforcer. Meanwhile, Masaya Okonogi downright despises all three for reminding him of the time he was exploited by the yakuza through his swindling father at a young age. |
| 69 | * Due to being mostly {{Corrupt Corporate Executive}}s, they are also considered to be a target by the Phantom Thieves of Hearts, though their threat priority differs: Morita Akio is considered a non-target due to him willing to reform the corporate system so that it can benefit the people, Matsushita Masaharu is lowest priority, Ibuka Masaru is dependent on whether he manages to persist in his vision of a technocratic future or not, and Komai Kenichirō is regarded as top priority to his extreme corruption. Komai is well aware of this and has taken notes from the Antisocial Forces' attempts to stave off the Phantom Thieves, albeit this time, making sure that no fools will try to sabotage each other and ensure that they stay down. |
| 70 | * While some of them are willing to deal with Nazis if it does mean increased profits, they are on their guard when dealing with Wilhelm "Deathshead" Strasse, who was also in a timeline where the entire Axis won WWII, but instead of struggling post-victory, Strasse was one of the Nazis who invaded Japan once they had finished conquering the Allies. Nevertheless, the [[StupidJetpackHitler impressive technological advances the Nazis made in that timeline]] would be too appealing for them to completely deny services to him, but they are hiring more guards to prevent Strasse from downright invading Guangdong, especially since in their timeline, Nazi Germany and Japan were against each other in a [[SpaceColdWar alternate Cold War]]. |
| 71 | * Because they came from a timeline where the entire Axis won WWII, not to mention selling their products and weapons across the globe for GDP, the various WWII-era US Marine and Navy servicemen have opposed them due to not just being corporations that serve the Empire of Japan, but also selling various products to subvert American freedom, especially with the case of Komai Kenichirō, whose entire MO consists of selling cheap yet high-quality products to various nations so that they can overlook Hitachi's various abuses, and with the help of Eliza and Neil Reagan, they've successfully managed to set a foothold across the entire Trope Pantheons. |
| 72 | * (Guangdong Riots) |
| 73 | * (Nintendo) |
| 74 | * (Other TNO deities?) |
| 75 | * Of course, [[ArcWords the more things change, the more they stay the same]]. No matter which Chief Executive is currently in charge of Guangdong, it never really changes that much. The only thing that does change is how much human cost is needed to produce profit and regardless, the dynamic of Guangdong consists of Japanese expats being the ruling class, the Zhujin middle-class, and the Chinese low-class. Such is life in Guangdong, where corporate visionaries become national ones. The only way that will cause it to significantly change is if the Great Asian War happens, and its' fate is ultimately depending on whether the Rising Sun burns China or sunsets. |
| 76 | * Exclusive to Morita Akio: |
| 77 | ** (various Sony-related deities interactions) |
| 78 | * Exclusive to Matsushita Masaharu: |
| 79 | ** Matsushita found surprising solidarity with Renata Glasc not just due to their position as powerful CEOs, but also genuinely hold them dear to their heart- For Matsushita, earning his father-in-law's Kōnosuke's approval, and for Reneta, in spite of her business policies going against her parents' interests, does hold them dear to her heart. While Matsushita is somewhat unnerved by her chemtech formula passed on from her parents, nevertheless, they get along surprisingly well because of their shared upbringing. |
| 80 | ** (Phillip Price) |
| 81 | * Exclusive to Ibuka Masaru: |
| 82 | ** (Tyrell Wellick) |
| 83 | * Exclusive to Komai Kenichirō: |
| 84 | ** Graduating from Tokyo Imperial and later rising up the ranks of Hitachi Limited, Komai is one of the Reform Bureaucrats to have ascended in the pantheon, and such an innocent name hides the sheer amount of cruelty and exploitation of Imperial Japan. Under them, the Reform Bureaucrats subordinate most of their subjects' economies to extract their resources regardless of the human cost. As such, his ideology would find a place in Mordor, where industrialization was practically underway- Hitachi's presence just exacerbated the conditions over there, and the more money comes out of it, the better. |
| 85 | ** Hitachi's connections to Manchuria isn't just to its armies; Komai also has connections to the [[SecretPolice Kempeitai]] as well, and also the Imperial Japanese Army as an extension. Unfortunately for him, however, currently the Imperial Japanese Navy, which is regarded as somewhat less brutal compared to the IJA is currently the dominant faction of the armies of the Empire of Japan, which means that their members, such as Isoroku Yamamoto and Tamon Yamaguchi are very reluctant to work with him, though Masataka Shima is at the very least willing to work with him to further his personal ambitions. Because of this rather unique situation, he is considered to be a temporary commander for the Banzai Chargers, as they are willing to bayonet most of Hitachi's opposition until an proper IJA commander ascends. |
| 86 | ** It is no surprise, that being an [[HateSink extremely reprehensible]] oligarch, that Komai has earned the hatred of Luz Noceda and Amity Blight, due to them having uncomfortable memories of Emperor Belos' regime, but Komai especially sticks out to Amity, since his status as a self-serving bigoted CorruptCorporateExecutive reminds her too much of her hated mother Odalia Bright, who happens to be just as monstrous as him, especially with all the knowledge of how horrific Hitachi's factories are. |
| 87 | ** Because Hitachi is well known for ruining their countries for the sake of profit as well as being another appendage of Manchuria, this has caught the attention of Elliot Alderson, who views Komai as just as bad as Evil Corp, with the further revelations that unlike Evil Corp which was an pawn for the Dark Army, Komai can potentially managed to break free of his strings from Manchuria and rule Guangdong as his personal dictatorship causing him to ensure that Hitachi does not go expand further beyond. Because of this, while Hitachi has managed to strike a deal with the Dark Army to combat him alongside Evil Corp, the sheer fact that he can potentially go rogue against their orders has understandably put them on edge. |

| 121 | * Eric's show is known for being...Bizarre to say the least. Things happen with little reason, such as cutting to other crew members, random objects coming from nowhere, and- (Happy Happening is still playing) OH CRAP(cue the narrator being interrupted by Eric Andre brutally) |

| 165 | ** Zafira: |
| 166 | * Eternal Master: '''''[[Pantheon/OtherPowers Hayate Yagami]]''''' |
| 167 | * Enemies: |
| 168 | * Guardians borne from the Book of Night Sky, a book that stored knowledge of magic from their universe, until one day, it malfunctioned, turning it into the Book of Darkness, which granted ultimate power to the user upon filling up the required 666 pages through draining Mana, at the cost of turning users into {{Omnicidal Maniac}}s and draining their life force in the process, even if they didn't fill up the pages. They were once cold-hearted guardians of the Book of Darkness, but Hayate Yagami bringing them happiness for the first time in their lives caused them to pledge loyalty to her. Unfortunately, the Wolkenritter had no idea of the fact on how the Book of Darkness can turn its owner insane, but they still tried to prevent their master Hayate Yagami from suffering the same fate as the previous owners of the Book of Darkness, which was nearly for naught as [=NatchWal=] drained their Linker Cores (in actuality, this was done under the Time-Space Administrative Bureau members Liesearia and Lieselotte alongside Gil Graham, but this information was classified for unknown reason) and Hayate was absorbed into the Book of Darkness, but thankfully with Reinforce Eins' sacrifice and Hayate managing to regain control to resurrect the Wolkenritter, they eventually managed to eventually separate themselves from the Book of Darkness for good, returning it to its original form of the Book of Night Sky, ending the Book of Darkness' cycle of destruction for good. |
| 169 | * Both Vita and Signum were once in the Pantheon under different tiles, but one day, both of them felt lonely without the rest of the Wolkenritter, because life wasn't just exactly the same without them. With Signum relinquishing her title of [[LadyOfWar Graceful Combat]] to Tomoe Gozen, she, along with Vita who accompanied her, set out on the mortal realm to find Shamal and Zafira. After almost 2 years of waiting, Nanoha heard a familiar voice ring throughout the Pantheon Houses. Reaching to the source of the voices, she eventually found not just Signum and Vita, but also found Shamal and Zafira among them. After an untold amount of time had passed, the Wolkenritter finally reunited to once again protect Hayate Yagami! |
| 170 | ** However, one thing that somehow finally came to the Wolkenritter is that for some reason, they finally achieved a brief moment on what they considered to be normalcy. With their lives being filled with nothing but war, battles and survival, their wish for a normal life was certainly granted after a untold amount of time, even more so in the Pantheon. While the Pantheon had its moments of violence, it was also a place for deities to relax thanks to the other deities fighting for peace over there. Because of this, with all of them feeling right at home, they vouched for the title of '''[[MundaneLuxury Considering Simple Lives As An Luxury]]''', upon which they succeeded. |
| 171 | * They get along well with the Falcons, primarily because Stella, Dystnine, Rebellio, and Bakto resonate well with them due to being trapped in a job for other people's sake much like how the Wolkenritter tried to protect Hayate. The Wolkenritter in particular pity Stella and Dystnine largely because Stella wanted to protect Dystnine from being scrapped, only for her to get killed which resulted in Dystnine going after Copen not unlike what happened to them when they were slain once and Hayate going berserk. |
| 172 | * (Relationship with the rest of the ''Lyrical Nanoha'' deities) |
| 173 | * Exclusive to Signum: |
| 174 | ** She would like to remind her followers that the only thing she's going to preach is on how to get close to the enemies and beat the crap out of them. ''With grace''. Just ask anyone who has fought her, including Nanoha. |
| 175 | ** Upon her return (''again''), Signum sought out Yuri Tsukikage to help with her rehabilitation and daily training to catch up ever since she left in order to search for Shamal and Zafira. While [[BroughtDownToBadass nowhere near as powerful as she used to be]], she is still capable of kicking ass. |
| 176 | ** Has become friends and sparring partners with Erza Scarlet after noting their [[BirdsOfAFeather similarities]]. Their battles are among some of the greatest sword-wielding events to shake the Pantheon's core. They've recently welcomed a new addition to their spars: [[Pantheon/{{Weapons}} Pyrrha Nikos]]. Signum is impressed with the young Huntress' skill and eagerly awaits any future battles. |
| 177 | ** Is quite honored to be able to meet Artoria face-to-face, with whom she feels a kinship to given their [[LadyOfWar status]]. The two often spar, engage in a MeleeATrois with Erza, or simply talk with each other about what it means to be a knight. When once asked about how she felt about King of Knights, Signum would only say that Arturia was more than worthy of the title and that she would have been honored to serve under her, had she not already pledged her sword to the Queen of the Night Sky. |
| 178 | * Exclusive to Vita: |
| 179 | ** While she is normally docile as she is not interested in battles, it is a ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE IDEA to mess with her hat. Anyone who does so shall receive a messy hammer-induced death. |
| 180 | ** Even though she isn't the Goddess of Hammers, it is prophesized that she will one day wield the Goldion Crusher when Guy is absent. A lot doubts that such a little girl can carry such thing. Vita's response? |
| 181 | --> ''"Bring it on."'' |
| 182 | ** Recently it has been revealed that Vita has blessed the next [[Platform/PlayStationVita PSP Successor]] by engraving it with her name. ('''Fix Later''') |
| 183 | *** The other gods believe that [[Pantheon/{{Gaming}} Noire]] pulled some strings. ('''Also fix later''') |
| 184 | ** [[Pantheon/{{Weapons}} Vita]] [[{{Expy}} was]] surprised [[GratuitousGerman by]] [[CuteBruiser how]] [[GlacierWaif many]] [[BerserkButton similarities]] [[ACupAngst she shares]] [[HotBlooded with]], [[Pantheon/{{Gaming}} Blanc]]. ('''Umm... How to fix?''') |
| 185 | ** Maximus is currently mentoring her in the art of throwing hammers. ('''Expand upon''') |
| 186 | ** Despite her unaging physical appearance, Vita is generally ''quite'' annoyed when anyone (particularly Nanoha) treats her like a little girl. Being a minimum of 400+ years old, she demands to be treated like an ''adult'' (despite often [[ImmortalImmaturity not acting very much like one]]). Only her mistress Hayate can get away with treating her like her apparent age (usually). |
| 187 | ** Upon reviewing the events of the Halo-verse, Vita has expressed interest in acquiring a gravity-hammer mode for Graf Eisen. Some deities are... wary of letting her succeed. |
| 188 | ** Has bonded with fellow cynical "immortal girl" [[Pantheon/PersonalAppearance Evangeline McDowell]]; the two of them occasionally hang out, swapping war stories, comparing new "[[TrainingFromHell training]]" ideas, and otherwise providing each other companionship. |
| 189 | * Exclusive to Shamal: |
| 190 | ** You've think that being the Knight of the Lake, you would assume that Shamal's powers are associated with water. You've be dead wrong- in spite of that title, she is actually ''[[IronicFear afraid]]'' of swimming. Her powers are actually associated with the wind, which is associated with her more accurate title Healing Hand of the Wind. |
| 191 | ** Also, try not to let her cook anything- she's absolutely terrible at it, if this [[http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y191/Liinna/Nanoha/Hayate/1264208642230.png photo]] is anything to go by. That being said, when compared to the worst of the bunch (even considering the God of {{Lethal Chef}}s, the [[Pantheon/ChefsAndEstablishments Mafia of Cooks]]), many agree that if she's doomed to not be an good cook, she's definitely the best of the worst compared to them, as Signum and Vita can attest. |

However, it was not to last, when the Selfish Kingdom invaded it and split Marie-Ange into two halves. Fortunately, Makoto later found friends to help her restore the Magical Trump Kingdom: Mana Aida/Cure Heart, the StudentCouncilPresident of Oogai Middle School, Rikka Hishikawa/Cure Diamond, Mana's best friend, Alice Yotsuba/Cure Rosetta, the [[{{Ojou}} heiress to her corporation]] and Mana and Alice's childhood friend, and Aguri Madoka/Cure Ace, the light half of Marie-Ange. Together, they form the [=Doki!Doki!=] Pretty Cures, who fought the Selfish Kingdom to restore the Magical Trump Kingdom. In the end, upon the defeat of the Proto-Jikochuu, they managed to not only restore the Trump Kingdom, but also managed to create a dimensional link to Earth. |
| 244 | * One day, during Mobius' attempt to defeat the Fresh Pretty Cures by utilizing his hypnosis with the help of SHOCKER to work on an more powerful version of his mass hypnosis abilities to not only brainwash them, but also every allied associated with them as well, most notably Super Sentai, Power Rangers and Kamen Riders. It worked for a while, with an terrified Shinnosuke Tomari comparing it to [[Film/SuperHeroTaisenGPKamenRider3 the day SHOCKER took over the world by utilizing time travel to brainwash the majority of the Kamen Riders]], except the Rangers and Pretty Cures were also affected as well. Just before the Fresh Pretty Cures were on the brink of defeat, suddenly, the Doki Doki Pretty Cures arrived to save them in the nick of time, and with this the tide changed: Once they were saved, they took no time dismantling Moebius and SHOCKER's schemes by not only destroying Moebius' hypnosis device, but also prevented SHOCKER from utilizing it in their rebuilt Rider Robo as well. This act of heroism resulted in them being crowned '''Quintet Goddesses of the PlayingCardMotifs'''. |
| 245 | * Due to being part of the Toku Base, they are heavily associated with various Sentai Teams, Power Rangers, and even Kamen Riders as well, though some stand out compared to others: |
| 246 | ** Because both Kenzaki and the Precures share similar PlayingCardMotifs, Kazuma Kenzaki often acts like a mentor to them, though especially towards Makoto Kenzaki, since they both share the same surname. Speaking of which, at one point they decided to sneak into his room after hearing rumors about him saying words in rather sloppy way and some bizarre muttering about a certain "Tachibana-san" being a traitor while sleeping. However, once they snuck in, they were surprised when Kenzaki began [[spoiler:tearfully reminiscing about him having to become the Joker Undead to put the Battle Fight into a stalemate to prevent the other Joker Undead, Hajime Aikawa from inadvertently causing the end of his world and allow him to live a normal life, and that thanks to the immortality from being an Undead has become more cynical over the years due to being unable to die. Fortunately, thanks to the destruction of the Stone of Sealing through Zi-O Trinity, he's reclining back to his nicer self due to this, though the nature of the Pantheon means that it will inevitably come back someday]]. After hearing about this, the Precures gave his condolences towards what happened to him, and have since started to hang out with each other more. |
| 247 | ** They've been also training their skills and magic under Haruto Soma, who happens to be [[KungFuWizard exceptionally skilled with both combat and magic]]. That being said, at one point, [[https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/kamenrider/images/8/87/Wizard_Wedding.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20180226104443 Mana had a fever dream about having married a certain "Mr. Wizard"]]. Exactly why she dreamt about it is unknown, though after meeting with Haruto Soma and discussing about it, funnily enough, [[spoiler:Haruto actually did marry someone else, namely Rinko Daimon]], [[LetUsNeverSpeakOfThisAgain and refused to discuss it again afterwards]]. |
| 248 | * Exclusive to Mana: |
| 249 | ** The house of Pantheon/{{Music}} has issued a restraining order against her thanks to a certain incident involving her singing being so terrible that it sent birds flying in complete terror, and even managed to catch everyone, especially the [[Pantheon/MusicalCompositions Suite Pretty Cures]], a team of magical musicians were caught completely off guard, and those that did listen what happened can agree that completely justifiable. |

| 281 | * The dragon Loptyr was almost unstoppable in the realm of Jugdral, a realm that was ravaged with little dragon interference, only human politics. Not even the might of its eventual savior, Seliph was enough to completely stop it, but he did anyway, all because he had his half-sister Julia, who had enough Blood of Naga to allow her to use [[VillainBeatingArtifact the one artifact that could destroy Loptyr: The Book of Naga.]] Before obtaining such item, she was not even allowed to die, such fateful insistence caused her to ascend to the Pantheon... |
| 282 | ** And she is not alone. Accompanying her was her MOTHER, Deirdre, who was constantly kept alive by fate in order to eventually pass her own Naga blood onto Julia. And after a few trips in Askr, she was seen with her own copy of Book of Naga (just plastered 'Divine' between the second and third letter). For a heartwarming family reunion, even the Pantheon agreed to let her ascend too, it's not just the book... they ARE the villain-beating artifact. |
| 283 | * The heartwarming reunion eventually evolved from mother-daughter to the whole family when they met Sigurd and Seliph. Unlike how other people expected, they got along very fine with Arvis, as he was a loving father to Julia. In fact, both Deirdre and Julia tend to be a calming presence whenever awkward tensions might rise between Sigurd/Seliph and Arvis. |
| 284 | ** (other fire emblem deities) |
| 285 | * Some has claimed that ever since ascending or perhaps taking a trip in Askr, Julia has been rather... spacey-headed. She used to suffer amnesia, but Seliph didn't recall her being this spacey when saying "What~?" |
| 286 | ** Also, for the last time, do not even [[DiscreditedMeme mention about if she forgot about Seliph or not]]. Yes, Julia suffers amnesia, but no, she still remembers Seliph even when she was brainwashed by Manfroy. |

| 320 | * Cresselia is notable for bringing Sweet Dreams to people as they sleep. Because of this, it has the ability to counteract any horrific nightmares induced, especially from Darkrai, which is why she ascended in the first place in order to make sure his [[PowerIncontinence uncontrollable nightmare-inducing powers]] don't hurt anyone. |
| 321 | ** That said, she is wary of Darkrai creating a ruckus, especially [[spoiler: [[VideoGame/PokemonMysteryDungeonExplorers that time where he was just absolutely vile]]]]. |
| 322 | * Because of her powers, she is on good terms with any deities that suffered nightmares (except the absolutely inreprehensible ones), especially Takumi, who suffered nightmares of [[spoiler: Queen Mikoto's death]]. |
| 323 | * She's also notorious to catch. Being that it roams around the Pantheon often, it can be quite the pursuit to catch her, and [[StoneWall has a surprising amount of defense]]. The one that finally did, Dream of the Endless, only managed to partner up with her because of having similar ability to bring good dreams. |
| 324 | * She also has a crippling weakness to Ghost-types and bug-types. Because of this, she tends to be wary of the House of Pantheon/{{Insects}}, Pantheon/{{Ghosts}}, and [[Pantheon/LightAndDarkness Darkness]]. That said, how she can somehow dispel Darkrai's Bad Dreams without getting hurt is interesting. |
| 325 | ** She also is wary of SCP-990 due to him bringing various prophetic dreams, and she cannot somehow clear those. This also applies to Richard, except due to being much more mysterious than him. |

| 349 | * Aldrich was formerly a holy cleric that originated from Irithyll, but after obtaining visions of a "deep sea", he began eating people to obtain power, and later founded the Church of the Deep, which provided Aldrich with a good amount of sacrifices to feed him. During his time, he shared his Ruby and Sapphire to his followers to show them the final shutters of life while enjoying his victim's screams. His vision of the "deep sea" often intoxicated his followers or even corrupted them into Deep Accursed, and even the Deep turned him into a rotting sludge, and still retained his hunger. At one point, he became a Lord of Cinder, though it's unknown if he was either forced to do this, or he become one through sheer might after being imprisoned in the Cathedral of the Deep. After seeing the end of the Age of Fire, he began to dream of the Old Gods of Lordran, and neglected his throne for devouring gods. Eventually, with the help of Pontiff Sulyvahn, alongside the Church of the Deep, he managed to devour [[spoiler:Gwyndolin]], and was implied to also devour [[spoiler:Smough during his last stand at Anor Londo, and possibly Gravelord Nito's corpse as well.]] During his devouring of [[spoiler:Gwyndolin, he dreamt of a pale girl in hiding, resulting in him gaining the power of Lifehunt]]. By the time the Ashen One came to return him to his throne, most of the damage was already done and was eventually finished off. |
| 350 | * His ascension to the Pantheon was rather unorthodox: rather than receiving approval at the Court of the Gods, Aldrich instead ascended through ''sheer might'', with many of the more moral villainous deities expressing horror at his temple, which was a Deep-defiled [[spoiler:Anor Londo]]. Needless say, upon hearing of this, the Ashen One quickly prepared a massive armory to prevent the Deep from spreading all over the place. |
| 351 | * Aldrich became [[EldritchAbomination the monstrosity seen]] by cannibalizing to the point of going beyond a mere FatBastard into a BlobMonster of nightmarish proportions. As such, he often pours himself the House of Pantheon/FleshEaters. Pennywise enjoyed the company, as he too absolutely loves the terror of his victims. Sure, screams alone aren't enough, but they help in salting the meat. Children across the pantheon were horrified. Aldrich was most amused by SCP-953's sadistic mind games when it comes to cannibalism as well. This has attracted the attention of the SCP Foundation, not something Aldrich wanted. |
| 352 | * Many cannibals, good [[EvenEvilHasStandards or evil]] were creeped out when Aldrich arrived in the pantheon. [[Pantheon/FleshEaters Black Doom]] regards Aldrich to be somewhat of an excessive being blind to its gluttony, but this comes more down to [[PragmaticVillainy not wanting his stock taken]]. [[Pantheon/{{Mentalism}} Hannibal Lecter]] regards him as a being without manners or cordiality. More seriously Marceline finds him absolutely disgusting and would love to give him a taste of his own medicine. |
| 353 | * His covenant, the Aldrich Faithful, protects him from any intruders that dare to interrupt his gourmet, and farm Human Dregs from their corpses to offer to their deity. It's been also found out that the Ashen One used to be part of the covenant. However, the Ashen One has stated that they only joined the covenant because they wanted to learn the knowledge of the Great Deep Soul sorcery. After this, they later exited the covenant out of disgust, and later turned against him. The Ashen One has since [[TheAtoner tried to make up for this by assisting those who seek to defy Aldrich]]. |
| 354 | * Aside from the Ashen One, Aldrich has also made a lot of enemies from his home realm too: |
| 355 | ** Lord Gwyn was appalled to learn that he [[spoiler:not just defiled Anor Londo and corrupted his faithful Silver Knights, but also ate Gwyndolin. While he did raise him as the opposite sex, at least he would never resort to such debauchery.]] |
| 356 | ** Ornstein and Smough have the same reasons for opposing Aldrich, especially regarding Smough since [[spoiler:he died during his LastStand against the Church of the Deep.]] Ornstein in particular [[spoiler:feels a bit regretful that he was unable to come back in time to save Smough from the defilers]]. |
| 357 | ** Knight Artorias also has a grudge against him for the same reason, but he also found out that his Greatsword can also inflict additional damage towards him, making him a viable threat to Aldrich. |
| 358 | ** The Chosen Undead, being a former Darkmoon Knight, was horrified to see the [[spoiler:remains of Gwyndolin sticking out of Aldrich. To make things worse, reports from the Chosen Undead indicate that ''[[AndIMustScream Gwyndolin is still alive yet not in control of his body]]''.]] This left the Chosen Undead into [[HeroicBSOD a period of trauma]], before taking up arms against Aldrich. |
| 359 | ** Surprisingly enough, even Manus appears to oppose the abomination. While the Abyss may have a neutral but corrupting influence, it has produced non-hostile entities. The Deep, on the other hand, used to be a place where souls peacefully rest until ''something'' corrupted it. While they may look the same, [[https://www.reddit.com/r/darksouls3/comments/9qnpza/whats_the_verdict_is_the_deep_the_abyss_the_same/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share there are enough viable theories that they are very different]]. |
| 360 | * Even since his ascension, the Aldrich Faithful have been seeking members to increase their strength into protecting Aldrich. |
| 361 | ** Kirei Kotomine, having sacrificed a lot of orphans from the Fuyuki fire to have their mana fed to Gilgamesh during the 5th Holy Grail War, has joined as of the enforcers. However, while he does indeed enjoy pain, the only reason why he even enjoys it is because he is still wondering why is he born evil in the first place, not helping by his moral compass tell him that's wrong. The same goes for the servant he brought over as well, Gilgamesh, also with different reasons; One, he was met with a cruel death with a similar entity called The Shadow at one point, and Two, his defilement of [[spoiler:Anor Londo]] reminded him of Babylonia being drowned by the Primordial Sea of Life by Tiamat. |
| 362 | *** Speaking of Tiamat, she is surprisingly downright [[EvenEvilHasStandards disturbed at Aldrich's cannibalism]]. This is because of how she believes that humanity is her children and in spite of showing her love for them by wanting to shove them back inside her, she feels the need to protect them from him, who is a cannibal whose sadism happens to come via harming Humanity. Aldrich himself cannot fathom why a primordial being with a twisted and destructive love for humanity would protect them instead. |
| 363 | ** Avenger sees him as a rival, given that sadism is one of the All of the World's evil he embodies, but [[EvenEvilHasStandards even he dislikes the fact that Aldrich would luxuriate in his victim's screams and that Avenger actually loves humanity]] [[VisualNovel/FateHollowAtaraxia thanks to two certain individuals in another timeline]]. |
| 364 | ** Darkseid, believing that the Age of the Deep Sea would bring despair and nihilism to the people that he eats, views him as an essential tool into bringing the Tyranny that was Apokolips into the Pantheon, and currently acts as one of the major members of the Aldrich Faithful. |
| 365 | ** Cioccolata has a rather simple interest in the abomination that is Aldrich, as does the Yellow Bastard; their absolute love [[LovesTheSoundOfPeopleScreaming of the screaming and anguish of others]] that the Saint of the Deep luxuriates in. Darker still, the Emperor of the Kingdom Dolorous adores his sadism, absolute representation of the sin of gluttony and dread and despair he represents. Gluttony is interested less in that, and more in the chance of devour alongside him. What [[Pantheon/{{Humanoids}} the Father of the Homunculi]] thinks isn't known yet. |
| 366 | * Boasts being the Devourer of Gods, though has only eaten one god so far and everyone hopes that sticks. The Scarlet King claims superiority on the subject of theophagy, but he does admire Aldrich's activities. Zeus and his siblings, given their family history, were utterly repulsed by this, as is any divine being. Zamasu was first to point out that Aldrich was a perfect representation of what he hates about mortals due to this, and the fact Aldrich was a cannibal who became the abomination out of cannibalism and gluttony only further drives the point home. Nobody is even bothering to point out that [[{{Hypocrite}} Zamasu]] has proven more of a threat to the gods than Aldrich ever has. |

| 388 | * The dragon Loptyr was almost unstoppable in the realm of Jugdral, a realm that was ravaged with little dragon interference, only human politics. Not even the might of its eventual savior, Seliph was enough to completely stop it, but he did anyway, all because he had his half-sister Julia, who had enough Blood of Naga to allow her to use [[VillainBeatingArtifact the one artifact that could destroy Loptyr: The Book of Naga.]] Before obtaining such item, she was not even allowed to die, such fateful insistence caused her to ascend to the Pantheon... |
| 389 | ** And she is not alone. Accompanying her was her MOTHER, Deirdre, who was constantly kept alive by fate in order to eventually pass her own Naga blood onto Julia. And after a few trips in Askr, she was seen with her own copy of Book of Naga (just plastered 'Divine' between the second and third letter). For a heartwarming family reunion, even the Pantheon agreed to let her ascend too, it's not just the book... they ARE the villain-beating artifact. |
| 390 | * The heartwarming reunion eventually evolved from mother-daughter to the whole family when they met Sigurd and Seliph. Unlike how other people expected, they got along very fine with Arvis, as he was a loving father to Julia. In fact, both Deirdre and Julia tend to be a calming presence whenever awkward tensions might rise between Sigurd/Seliph and Arvis. |

| 457 | * Barred Entry from: [[Pantheon/TimePlacement Dr. 0]]. |
| 458 | * Formerly known as Earth, the Clockwork Planet is a planet entirely composed of gears that was constructed by the legendary clocksmith "Y". The surface of the planet is a 70 km thick shell of gears suspended over an empty void where the Earth's mantle and core used to be, as all of the original Earth had been hollowed out to make way for the new clockwork structure. Human civilizations and artificial environments are built on top of those gears, which are being held on the surface by enormous core towers that control all of the base mechanisms, ranging from weather, temperature, and even gravity. A large artificial ring called the Equatorial Spring encircles the planet, which actually powers it by drawing in gravity from the Earth's Moon and converting it into energy. It is said that the number of gears on this planet ''outnumbers'' even the total amount of stars in the universe. |
| 459 | * The planet came to be because the Earth had lost all of its internal energy due to heat death, and as a result, all of its functions that helped kept the Earth habitable shut down. In the span of 100 years, Earth became a lifeless husk as oceans dried up and landmasses became devoid of life. Some of humanity decided to head out into space in search of a new home, while most unfortunately had no choice but to stay on the dying Earth and face extinction. That is until a mysterious man named "Y" came along, and proposed an idea so ridiculous and crazy, [[CrazyEnoughToWork it just might work]]. He came up with a blueprint to rebuild the Earth and all of its functions using nothing but clockwork gears, and thus, the Clockwork Planet was created. |
| 460 | * The girl genius Agatha Heterodyne frequents the place often because she is amazed at how such an impressive technical marvel could even exist, and feels that she has stepped into clockwork heaven. She's looking for ways to improve her Gaslamp technology by incorporating some of the planet's base mechanisms into her tech. |
| 461 | * Dr. 0 of the Think Tank has been banned from setting foot on the Clockwork Planet over fears that [[WalkingTechbane he may end up tampering with the mechanisms and break the whole planet as a result]], which could lead to city purges on a global scale. |

| 490 | * One day in the Pantheon, there was a normal PVP fight club happening in the House of Gaming. However, a mysterious user came out of the shadows and quickly waved both of his arms out and said, "Well, what is it!?" Soon after, he began to fucking pwn some noobs, and somehow managed to even defeat 『 』, an act which shocked the deities of the House of Gaming, and thus led to his ascension. |

| 494 | Additional Notes: Will work on Cresselia after beating Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, can't spoil too much for myself. Tropers/WhirlRX did intend to work further on B.B. and Alter Egos, though given the lack of activity on the profile, I decided to take it myself. Most of the initial freebies came from the now long gone Deities That Need A Rework section of the Reworking Gods. |
