Eternity, God of Cosmic Beings (Necessity, Adam Kadmon, the Living Sentience of the Universe, the Seventh/Eighth Cosmos)
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/eternity.png
  • Overdeity (full-blown Overdeity as Multi-Eternity)
  • Symbol: A silhouette with stars in it
  • Theme Song: "Eternity Theme."
  • Alignment: True Neutral
  • Portfolio: Cosmic Entity, Personification of the Universe, Nigh Omnipotence, Celestial Body, Time Incarnate, The Worf Effect
  • Domains: Time, Space, Magic, Cosmic Beings
  • Heralds: His predecessors, the Ultimate Ultimates (the Second To Sixth Cosmos), and his feminine aspect Infinity
  • High Priestess: Kismet
  • Superior: The Living Tribunal, and above him The One Above All
  • Allies: Doctor Strange, Galactus (his "brother"), The Celestials, Death the Horseman, Whis, Cosmos, Primus, The Pantheonic Time Police, The Monitor, Yog-Sothoth (as Aforgomon)
  • On Good Terms with: The Endless, Ben Tennyson
  • Enemies: Dormammu, Thanos, Amatsu-Mikaboshi, Krona, Rassilon, The Anti-Monitor, Barbatos, Zamasu, The Hadou Gods, Lucifer (Supernatural), Melkor, Lucifer, YHVH, Lord English, Unicron
  • Eternity is the living embodiment of his home universe, and while powerful is not the strongest of his ilk. But as one of the eldest and more iconic, he was made their overall representative. Eternity treats fellow cosmic beings with great respect, often as a host for their enjoyment. He also has a lesser known "sister"/other self, Infinity, who personifies space. In addition, the Eternity in the pantheon is but a facet of a multiversal Cosmic Entity known as "Multi-Eternity", present throughout and embodying the multiverse.
    • The Ultimates (2015) reveals he is meant to represent seventh/eighth cosmos (the "present" reality), and his predecessors showed up to defeat the maddened original reality, the First Firmament.
  • Eternity is good friends with Stephen Strange, who've helped each other out on numerous occasions. After becoming part of the pantheon, he and Death have gotten on quite well, bonding over their sharing experience at "usurper brats who don't know their place." Eternity hasn't gotten the time to eat pizza with Death though, since Galactus keeps stealing it.
  • Recognizes some similarities between himself and Ben Tennyson's Celestialsapien form Alien X; they're reality-bending with a Celestial Body. Alien X's two personalities even visually remind him of Master Order and Lord Chaos. However while Eternity has universal power, Alien X can affect things on a multiversal scale. Fortunately for Eternity Ben uses these powers sparingly and responsibly, something he can respect.
  • Has seven children known as the "Seven Friendless" who embody lesser conceptions, and take a lot of notes from the Endless. Fortunately the Endless lack an "Entropy" equivalent who wishes to destroy their father. The Endless didn't find him that interesting personally, but he was a good host and acting cordially to them, Cosmic Entity to Cosmic Entity.
  • Despite Eternity's enormous power, many lesser gods have overpowered him. To try and stop this from happening and save face among the other cosmic beings, he is training in the House of Combat from time to time to better defend himself and the Marvel Universe. Because of his immense existence, Eternity doesn't have much fighting skills.
  • Each incarnation of Eternity are limited to the universe they embody. Still, while supposedly the equal in rank to Galactus his powers are functionally much greater, unless Galactus is at his peak. Yog-Sothoth doesn't seem to think much of Eternity because while it is limited to being space-time, the Outer God both is and exists outside of space-time. Rick Sanchez doesn't think much of the Cosmic Entity because he can easily go to other universes, with or without a being to embody them.
  • In spite of(or probably because) his providence, he is relatively neutral to the conflicts in the Pantheon... so long as they don't interfere with his duties. As such, he has allied with the Status Quo. Eternity sides along Whis as well, since he helps preserve the balance and keeps Beerus in line. However, while he is Above Good and Evil he usually aids the Grand United Alliance of Good.
  • Among Eternity's concerns are to ensure that nobody usurps his position as the sentience of the universe, and as such he doesn't like how most the alliance leaders wish to impose their will and law upon creation. YHVH and Lucifer, were they to become the powers that be in the pantheon, would in his eyes create an unbalanced existence that breaks the status quo he is happy with. Melkor would be worse and leave creation to rot. Cosmos is the only alliance leader Eternity tolerates, since she wants to eliminate threats to the current order like them. Her motives for doing so aren't important for Eternity, but they are stable and that's what matters to him.
  • Still rather bitter about the time Thanos wrestled control over the cosmos from him via the Infinity Gauntlet, and Dormammu's schemes against him. Seeking to maintain his status quo and order over the Marvel Universe, it opposes the Hadou gods as they enforce a cosmic Law that spans the multiverse, utterly denying Eternity his will. And in cases like Hajun, this contempt is justified.
  • As the personification of time, Rassilon constantly seeks to subvert Eternity to his will. He's on his permanent blacklist for the time he tried to destroy time altogether. Hard-hitting cosmic threats have chosen to attack Eternity directly, as if he is destroyed so is the Marvel universe he embodies. While he can't get involved with the Chaos King properly as it's like fighting himself, he has no such restraint against beings like the Anti-Monitor or Lord English.
  • Seeing themselves as the guardians of history and hoping to atone for their mistakes of twice almost destroying time and space, the Silence have chosen to serve Eternity in protecting, well, eternity. For this, Eternity has chosen a more active role as a benefactor and supporting leader to the Pantheonic Time Police. He has also sided with Primus, a fellow cosmic being who while directly benevolent, takes a non-interference approach. Primus has consoled Eternity over how unlike Primus, he has multiple antithesis who seek the end of everything. This at least includes Amatsu-Mikaboshi, its true self Oblivion) and Abraxas.

    The Sleeper 
The Ancestor: "Witness the wondrous fury of the stars!"

The Sleeper, Unholy Representative of Devastating Comets (The Fracture, The Comet, The Color of Madness)
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/the_sleeper.png
As The Fracture
  • Overdeity
  • Symbol: The Farmstead’s floating windmill. Alternatively, its eye.
  • Theme Songs: Blasted Heath. Other theme songs depend on its manipulation on the Farmstead, such as:
  • Alignment: Chaotic Evil
  • Portfolio: The Colors Out of Space materialized, came from the Cosmos as a meteor, a merge between a Comet and an Eldritch Monster, a cage for the monster inside, turns anything within its reach into crystal and manipulates time around it, fated to fight the Heart of Darkness, has a lot of hitpoints (even as the Fracture)
  • Domains: Space, Time, Aliens, Celestials, Crystals, Corruption
  • High Priest: Nibiru, the Primal Being
  • Heralds: The corrupted inhabitants of the Farmstead, the Miller, and The Thing From The Stars.
  • Allies: None. Well, possibly it's Eldritch brethren, such as those hailing from the Cthulhu Mythos like The Colour Out of Space
  • Respects: H.P. Lovecraft, Ebrietas, Daughter of the Cosmos
  • Opposed by: The Farmer, Billy and Mandy, The ascended members of Funeral Parlor, but especially Mana Ouma
  • Worshipped by/Abhorrent Admirer: Micolash, Host of the Nightmare
  • Rival: Black Doom
  • Source of Interest: The Corpus
  • Feared by: Mitsuha Miyamizu
  • Enemies:
  • The Ancestor: "Blight had struck the harvest again that year, and the Miller was desperate. He came to me, hat clutched tightly in filthy fingers, stinking of sweat and manure. Seated comfortably in my observatory, surrounded by telescopes and other delicate apparatus, I recognized his misfortune as an opportunity, and I agreed to lend him my... expertise."
    • "Slabs etched with certain celestial designs were erected around the perimeter of the Farmstead. The Miller, lamentably eager for some early sign of improvement, fixed his watery eyes intently upon the wilted fields and listless mill. My gaze, however, was cast skyward and I marvelled at the limitless profanity of the stars, wondering what harvest might come.."
      • "The poor Miller - Thrice a victim. The seasons took his livelihood. I took his land. And, uncountable years later, the comet has taken his humanity. My only regret is that I did not live to see that shoddy mill smashed to pieces by the miraculous bounty I reaped from beyond the void."
  • It was a normal day in the Pantheon, hummingbirds, good-aligned deities meeting their friends (and evil ones too), and even the Guardians for every House having breaks. Suddenly, as in a swift bright flash, something tore apart from the heavens and slammed within the Pantheon grounds. Those who saw the trajectory of the crashing object found it within the temple of The Farmer, who grabbed as many belongings as he can. When the Pantheon’s cleanup arrived to fix the Farmer’s temple, odd growths starting appearing within the temple, from different rock structures to seemingly obtuse crystalline formations. There were also sightings of a rather blue-ish cyan color appearing from the crash, indicating that something sinister has arrived.
    • On that very same day, another impact was felt, this time on the House of Time and Space. When the crash was reported by Doc Brown, who saw a massive tear within space, the Pantheonic Time Police immediately observed Brown's observations and wanted to see the confirmed crash. They noticed a large gaping tear in one of the empty spaces of space. Weirded out by the sight, they would later call the Observers of Time to identify what exactly happened, only to be met with more fear that someone or something may have pierced its way from the very fabric of Time And Space.
    • Later, as the cleanup crew were about to finish, strange events started appearing around the Pantheon, many deities have started noticing massive presences of cyan blue color around the Farmer’s temple. This would later spread to other unusual places, among those being the House of Time and Space where the effects have tripled to even massive phenomena. Determined to stop this unknown string of events, The Hunter participated, alongside a group formed by Guts, Doctor Strange and Mercy. They would enter the Farmer’s temple where the crystallization has reached its peak. To their horror, this thing also brought with it infected inhabitants of a Farmstead it managed to induce its corruption with, forcing them to fight their way through the center.
    • As if things didn’t go bad enough, when they reached the center of the impact, they saw a shaped Fracture, spawning as many Crystalline Aberrations as it can. With combined teamwork from the four, they managed to bring it almost down, until said Fracture transformed into an unimaginable monstrous form, transporting it alongside the team into the House of Time and Space. There, the monster’s effects have increased and with its devastating powers against the party, it nearly wiped them out, until divine intervention by Future Trunks and Chronormu saved the entire party and drove the abomination into the far reaches of the entire House. Such experience left the party, and even the two guardians dazed at its presence, but nonetheless, they escaped. Now, the thing wonders in a corner of the House, sealed away from the common Pantheonic grounds and with it its own dimension.
  • This unholy cosmic being is a magnificent reminder of the Ancestor’s relentless search of the unknown. As he countlessly searched for knowledge within his world, he also sought knowledge from the cosmos, seeing it as having infinite possibilities on what can be unleashed, formed, and brought into for studying. At the same time, however, a Miller, desperate for a cure to his own harvest contacted him, asking should there anything be of use to aid in his losing Farmstead. The Ancestor, cunning and also desperate for.... something else, saw his Farmstead to be a perfect tool... a tool for trials unknown.
    • There, he constructed slabs of sketches, in each side of the Farmstead’s perimeter, watching as he would use the Miller’s own land, and his own life for a harvest that he may claim in his unconquerable thirst for knowledge. He succeeded and a comet landed within the lands, turning whatever it encountered into something maddening to the human mind. Whatever became of the Farmstead and its inhabitants are no longer in his possession, but as for the Comet that landed in the vicinity? Well, this... thing is what spawned from it.
  • As soon as it landed within the Farmer’s reach, it soon became clear that the same old man was responsible for ascending it within the Pantheon grounds. Yet the Farmer’s temple had no celestial slabs around it, nor any signs of the Ancestor’s attempts of creating it into a celestial array. Nevertheless, upon its ascension, he spoke with great belief that his attempts at ascending it are now with great success.
    The Ancestor: "Behold! The unquenchable fire of the stars!"
  • Ever since it ascended with majestic fury, the Pantheonic Time Police and alongside the Overseers of Time see this abomination as one of its greatest threats to ever reach within the House. This is because the reality warping capabilities of this monster allows it to warp different versions of itself and its controlled husks within different continuities into its reach. All the while, the corruption has seeped from the Farmstead also spreads into a slow descent of crystal and rock in the Pantheon. To make sure it doesn’t get out of hand, Future Trunk’s idea of separating the being away from the common lands of the Pantheon by sending it to the farthest corner of the House, alongside its “dominion”, were agreed upon its containment especially since it can separate its influence towards the more vulnerable deities. However, that doesn’t stop the Sleeper from sending armies of husks within any temple’s doorstep, intending to spread its corruption into the furthest lands.
  • Due to being what is essentially The Color Out of Space but in a more material form, H.P Lovecraft considers this being the absolute final straw to him and the Ancestor. It's bad enough that he wrote the stories, sure they are harmless, unless they are treated as rituals or sources to such realms, but he did not ask for something he himself cannot control at all. The original Color is already bad as a nightmare, but giving it an actual living form? Absolutely no. Yet for some reason, the Sleeper refuses to attack him and actually respects him, much to Lovecraft's chagrin.
    • Is apparently fond of this other member of the cosmos, who goes by the name of Ebrietas. After all, the name "Daughter of the Cosmos" is what gives it the need to spare it.
  • With its presence around the House, many deities are unnerved by its corruptions, especially since these are linked to what the Sleeper does to any living thing it interacts with, not to mention its ability to contact other realities and spawn them in the reality the Sleeper exists in, meaning it can theoretically have an infinite army in its disposal. The Dahaka, one of the biggest threats to anyone who disturbs the flow of time, even find this monstrosity to be a bigger threat, so much that they consider its existence to be “unexpected, even by beyond other continuities.”
    • Among others, Dio Brando and Randall Ross attempted to use their manipulations of time to defeat it. It did not end well for the two with two surprising outcomes. Dio was forced to fight a copy of himself but with husk-like features, which the Sleeper summoned from another reality, while on Ross’ side, the Timenado’s effects wore it off as it summoned more of its husk zombies. Both forcefully retreated but not until the Sleeper backed away from Randall’s temple. It turns out his temple, which is the full might of the Timenado, can stop time indefinitely which means a heavy loss should the Sleeper attempt to attack him in his home. This intrigued him, as he realizes that if he releases the full strength of the Timenado, it can cripple the Sleeper’s ability to control other realities. The good-aligned deities are wondering if they can try to use it to its advantages.
    • The Vex finds its existence to be really puzzling, after taking a look at its origins. It also finds it as a big threat it the Vex’s objective of making everything into The Pattern due to its ability to warp another version of itself should it be defeated. This even applies furthermore to anything it managed to corrupt, such as the Farmstead’s inhabitants. Another thing that worries even the Axis Minds is what happens should the Farmstead’s Miasma corrupt the Radiolarian fluid and technology the Vex utilizes.
    • Speaking of corruptions, The Farmer is still opposed to it due to almost turning his temple into the same fate as the Farmstead. Understandably so, considering how much damage it managed to do towards his temple as it arrived. On the other hand, the Hunter is quite immune towards its eye based attacks, thanks to his Insight. That doesn’t stop it from giving the Hunter tons of frenzy to deal with.
    • Majority of the members of Funeral Parlor have avoided this thing at all costs, considering their experiences with a meteor that crashed that was revealed to be holding the Apocalypse Virus. Mana Ouma, however, dreads this thing, considering she was the first one who encountered said meteor and became a maiden of destruction.
  • The crystals formed around the Farmstead and within the Sleeper’s reach have been told to cause stress if interacted with. This gave the Corpus a try at making it into a viable source of weaponry. The results were... actually successful, allowing the Corpus to create a new resource called “Refreshing Shard Dust”. Needless to say, no one wants to try it out upon fearing for its unusual side effects.
  • Billy and Mandy aren’t exactly sure how to feel about the Sleeper. Billy is sad hearing that it is not his “friend” (a brain-eating meteor). Mandy on the hand is quite unsure how to permanently defeat this thing, considering that the same meteor that Billy helped was defeated by Mandy herself (she possessed the meteor as soon as it got her brains).
  • Has been praised with extreme glorification thanks to Micolash, out of all people. His chants towards it are creepy, with him shouting and proclaiming that a newborn has arrived. Micolash also knows that it is an infant, further creeping many out on the revelation.
    Micolash: "This magnificent being! Thank the cosmos, thank Ebrietas! Tonight we shall bring this... newborn into the stars once more! Hahahahahaha"
  • So why does this thing have no evil-aligned deities on its side? Well, this is because it wants to conquer the entire world and reshape it to a world barren with crystal and rock. And to accomplish that, it must destroy its very enemy, the Heart of Darkness. This made it a threat to even the evil-aligned, world-destroying deities as they now know that should it mature, it will fight all the other horrors and replace them with its own brand of horrors, except all of it being cosmic in nature.
    • This is why it is at massive odds against Black Doom. Black Doom sees the inhabitants of the world to be sacrifces, wheres the Sleeper intends to corrupt everything into a world of husks, rocks and crystals. You can easily tell that both causes are at one against the other. Then there is also another fact that he and the Black Arms invade the world via a meteor, much like the Sleeper, though it is more of a comet than a meteor.
    • It is also at odds against Fuse, especially on how their armies are made. Fuse copies the original hosts and turns them into Fusions, his own copies but not too strong to the original. The Sleeper, on the other hand, turns them to husks, with no personality, trait or anything whatsoever. Fuse is also scared shitless of this thing thanks to its corruptions being potentially world-ending towards his planet, Planet Fusion. Not only that but because of its ability to warp another version of itself, he may never even defeat this thing.
    Fuse: "No, I will not fight this thing! Why don’t you give that goal to someone else."
  • The Lich saw potential with the sentient Comet, seeing it as a reminder of how he managed to come to Ooo as the comet that made the dinosaurs extinct. When it attempted to coerce it into his side, the Sleeper saw its trickery and decided to directly attack it using its tentacles and its eye. While the effect did not work with the Lich, the latter did not attack the comet back, seeing it as an immature time to engage it. He wishes to engage the Sleeper once it has matured and has the capability to continue its war against the other evils of the world.
    • Finn, on the other hand, was dead scared upon realizing that another comet, one which was destructive as the Lich, was present in Pantheon proper. However, his fear would be short-lived as he soon conquered his fear over the Lich and would do the same thing to the Sleeper. This is also the fact due to Finn being more or less the incarnation of the Blue Cosmic Comet, representing hope, with the very opposite of the Lich's Green Cosmic Comet, representing death. As soon as Finn met the Sleeper face-to-face, he even recognized the color of the comet being associated with madness, indicating that Finn knows all to well the nature of comets.
    Finn: "It is true! The colors, its literally madness incarnate! The Colors of Madness!"
  • The God-Emperor of Mankind absolutely hates this damned abomination, citing it as an example for the horrors the Imperium has to fight as well as its ability to manipulate time and space. He originally thought this thing was Tzeentch’s attempt at rooting the Imperium out, but when asked about its links to the Chaos God, he said this:
    Tzeentch: "Weeeeeell, I never sent anything to the Anathema, or maybe I did! Yet this thing, I never had a pet as contrived as this! Since this landed on the Anathema’s side, you take it! You find it, you keep it!"
  • Apparently, several deities have attempted to "talk" to it in the hopes of understanding what it wants. Unsuccessfully, only two deities have tried and almost cost their sanity: Louise Banks, and Nyarko.
    • Louise attempted to directly go through the Farmstead in the hopes of communicating with it the same way she did with the Heptapods. Unfortunately, what she received was a flurry of Eye Beams courtesy of its attack, "The Sleeper Awakens", forcing her to retreat before losing her sanity. Few days after the attempt, the Heptapods later relayed to Louise that an unknown silence has been attempting to commune with the aliens. There are rumors that the Sleeper might have extracted information on Louise and the Heptapods, further antagonizing them both.
    • Nyarko was an even more different story. While Nyarko’s nature as an Eldritch being helped it resist the Sleeper’s attacks, her attempts on communicating with it was fruitless. However, after that attempt, she would later preach in front of the other Nyarlathotep that those “eldritch beings” are from space and are aliens, which surprisingly gave the cosmic comet a stare upon hearing that (though this could be due to Nyarko’s observations being true that the Sleeper is alien in nature).
    Nyarko: "See, I told you OTHER Nyarlothotep, we aren’t some mystical beings, we are aliens all this time."
  • When word spread that a dangerous comet has landed a spot within the Pantheon, Mitsuha was immediately petrified upon hearing that a dangerous comet has joined into the Pantheon. Upon hearing its abilities, strengths and warnings regarding the power of the Sleeper, she was filled with absolute dread hearing that this thing is an abomination she cannot even comprehend, leading her to isolate herself from all the other gods, including her loved one Taki. When asked why, she couldn't answer, but Taki later pointed out that she was a victim to Comet Tiamat, or a portion of it when it furiously landed within her hometown, killing her in the process. Considering that the Sleeper is sentient and has control over time and space, it makes sense why she would fear it among all things.
    • It did not help when the Sleeper saw this and decided to spawn an alternate version of Mitsuha but with the cyan-based color and husk-like properties. This lead to her avoiding it at all costs, so much that she wanted to leave the Pantheon just to get her memories out. While she did get better, the Sleeper is interested in her, especially after summoning that alternate version of herself.
  • While the Sleeper is truly powerful in its own right, many have pointed out that its powers only manifest through the corruption that has spread, meaning that any area without the Farmstead’s Miasma will not be affected under its influence. However, that doesn’t mean that the corruption can be stopped but instead can be halted before its inevitable release. Many gods are attempting to find other people who can help battle it should it ever come under contact once more.
    • Many deities point to Oryx, the Taken King as another deity who can potentially stop the Sleeper in its tracks. Considering that Oryx managed to scare the living shit out of everyone including the Vex and can break the powers of time and space into his control, the Sleeper finds him the ultimate threat to its existence. No, not even the continuous realities can stop Oryx that easily.
  • The Ancestor: "It will live again in another time, another place.."

Greater Gods

    Aurelion Sol 
Aurelion Sol, God of Star Power (The Star Forger)
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/aurelion_sol_originalloading.jpg
  • Greater God, Overdeity without his Restraining Bolt
  • Symbol: The stars he uses in combat
  • Theme Song: This
  • Alignment: True Neutral with a good attitude towards the cosmos itself
  • Portfolio: Dragons From Space, Crafter And Manipulator Of The Stars, Time Abyss, Dark Is Not Evil, Unimpressed By Mortals, Informed Planet Size, Playing with Fire, Made a Slave, Deadpan Snarker, Badass Dragon Gods (And He Loves To Remind You), Being A Benevolent Star God, Smug Super, The Dreaded to the Rakkoran, Came from the Sky
  • Domains: Stars, Creation, Space, Dragons, (Unwilling) Servitude, Power, Pride
  • Followers: Starman, Varda, Star Man
  • Respects: Eru Ilúvatar, Io
  • Allies: The Creation Trio (especially Palkia), Rosalina, The King of All Cosmos, Roboking, Cael Cynder, Ra, Neith, Bro'dee Walker, Nox, Mogo, Robert Capa, Ysera, Mario, Luigi, Kirby, Spock
  • On good terms with: The Admins
  • Enemies: THE C'TAN, PANTHEON, Nekron, Apophis and the Grand United Alliance of Destruction, Cyrus, Chakravartin, Aerys Targaryen, the Dovahkiin, Acnologia, the Grox, slavers and those who'd abuse his power, Fused Zamasu, Sargeras, Doc Scratch, Lord English
  • Opposes: Koba, The Emperor of Mankind
  • Annoyed by: Beerus, Mard Geer Tartaros
  • Unclear Opinion on: Daenerys Targaryen, Samael
  • Aurelion Sol was born with the first breath of the cosmos. For eons, he would travel the cosmos and forge the stars themselves, however, the people of Mount Targon tricked and enslaved him. For thousands of years, they used him to create their star-spanning empire. However the magic is weakening, and he is biding his time for it to break and he to be free to return to the universe, getting revenge on those who enslaved him.
    • Utterly despises Pantheon. The last time he went to Runeterra, he got tricked by Pantheon(while inhabiting a female) to build up the Targon forces(admittedly to build up their forces against the Void). Didn't like being enslaved and ruined his plans. Safe to say of the Targon aspects, he's on the top of his shit list.
  • Jellal Fernandes once held Star Power along with Cartesian Karma, however, Aurelian Sol saw him unworthy of the power. He argued he was fine with Cartesian Karma, for he created stars and had the power to throw them at his enemy along with nurturing it. Jellal agreed he was more worthy of it. Though the size of a mountain, even planet-sized and beyond in-game he doesn't come across it. This is probably because of the chains binding him.
  • Finds a lot in common with the Creation Trio, as they are cosmic dragons like him. Particularly Palkia for being the deity of the space he sets alight with the stars. Aurelion doesn't understand why they'd ever submit to a trainer, though the Creation Trio explained they only do so, like all other Pokémon, out of a respect for a trainer who beats them. They despise Cyrus for trying to force them to recreate the cosmos. The leader of Team Galactic is interested in making the Star Forger a Captured Super-Entity to help create his ideal world. Hareta's influence might make him reconsider, but Aurelion still doesn't trust Cyrus.
  • Aurelion Sol possesses exactly the kind of pride you'd expect a celestial dragon to have. He regards humans, or any mortal as beneath his notice. No hard feelings, but they are pretty mediocore in his eyes. The Emperor of Mankind finds this behavior outrageous, believing that Humanity Is Superior and it is their destiny to rule the galaxy. Aurelion believes he and all the races of the 41st millennium to be smug, mouthy beings who make a mess of the stars he creates. It's not actively antagonistic, though, since it's "not worth my time".
  • Though dismissive to mortal beings, he is not contemptuous. He's not a Misanthrope Supreme, and isn't impressed by higher beings who waste their time hating on mortals. As such, he considers Mard Geer Tartaros annoying. And he looks down on Fused Zamasu for many reasons; his destructive nature is hypocritical for someone meant to create, his ego doesn't permit mortals or gods, and sullied himself for taking mortal form then adding it into the fusion.
  • He looks down upon Koba as well. While completely understanding what it's like to be tortured by others as he was slave to the people of Mount Targon, he condemns only them. Koba would hate all humanity for what a select group did, showing him to be a selfish, depraved mortal in the Star Forger's eyes. On the other hand, he seems to be fond of Cael Cynder for being a reasonable dragon who was exploited for his Unobtanium, of which the Star Forger is sympathetic towards.
  • For all his arrogance, he is willing to respect those on his level or greater if they have an agreeable personality. He has an ego for a reason. In the presence of Eru Ilúvatar, Aurelion Sol has nothing but respect for the lights and worlds He created. And even he has come to terms with Io being the greater, wiser dragon. However, he has no respect for the superior being of Chakravartin, for his callousness to his creation and exploitation of other gods.
  • He is also on good terms with Neith and Ra. Neith because she is the Egyptian goddess of weaving and thus a cosmic crafter, Ra as he is the guardian of the sun(a type of star). Nox he respects as being a guardian of space since she's the primordial goddess of the night, along with Utsuho Reiuji and Rosalina for being fellow star deities. When it comes to the Fallen Angel Lucifer, however, he isn't quite sure what to think. Yes, Lucifer Morningstar helped create light and stars, but is an arrogant sociopath (though has clear-cut standards) that's difficult to read, and this reads as a danger in his eyes.
  • To mortals, Aurelion Sol is True Neutral if not outright Above Good and Evil. He does follow a good-evil morality, it's just he applies it to the cosmos. He puts a lot of love in the stars he creates. There are a few mortals he's fond of though and admits they do have admirable traits. He puts mortals who defend and help out stars to be worthy of his kindness, such as Robert Capa. He's less sure what to think of the Administrators since there's an Admin and Sword for each star in the sky, leading to some kinship between them, but has no interest in their concerns about Order. He doesn't care about YHVH and Lucifer's Order Versus Chaos conflict either, so long as they don't try to piss him off.
  • At one point Saint Walker approached him and showed how with the blue light of hope he can restore a star using the hope of the mortal population. This was a demonstration to show to him the kind of value mortal beings have, and while the Star Forger remains dismissive of most it has improved his impression of them. Mogo impressed the Star Forger as well since Mogo is a celestial object that also happens to wield the green light of will, and protects the universe.
  • While Mario, Luigi and Kirby aren't too impressive in his eyes, the Star Forger is fond of them for appreciating the gift of stars through their star-related power-ups. And the first two are good friends with the Lumas. Spock is interested in learning more about Aurelion Sol due to his position as science officer.
  • Aurelion Sol will gladly give his life to protect the universe and the trillions of suns he loves and will slay any force who seeks to make the universe forever dark such as Apophis. Or the GUAD in general. Nekron despises the Star Forger as by continuing to add stars, he prevents the darkness from reclaiming the universe and allows life to continue to pop up. However, it is the C'Tan that Aurelion Sol despises more than any other, for being gluttonous stellar parasites that poison and ruin his creations. On a lighter side, while he doesn't hate Beerus since the destroyer is a necessary part of Universe 7, he's petty and tends to destroy planets and stars for lousy reasons.
  • As a space dragon, he'll sometimes rest in the Hall of Draconic Beings. He was annoyed by the Dovakhiin trying to slay him. He was especially annoyed at Acnologia trying to kill him, his massive hypocrisy and detestable personality. Daenerys Targaryen proved much more agreeable for being the Mother of Dragons, however, would like to remain her that he doesn't follow anyone's orders. Especially those of her insane father, who covets Aurelion's power.
  • Ysera became a constellation on her death. Being both a dragon and now a celestial, she seems to get along with Aurelion Sol, and he reminds her of one of the Titans who created life in the Warcraft universe. He has learned about her dragon aspects and has been rather horrified to learn that one of the Titans, Sargeras, defected and is trying to destroy the universe, something he opposes on principle.
  • He considered the Green Sun to be a marvellous thing, being a sun composed of two universes. He would congratulate Doc Scratch, however, he proved himself incorrigibly evil and tricked kids into a suicide mission so as to blow it up and destroy those universes. Plus he serves Lord English, who seeks the destruction of everything ever. Naturally, he's repulsed by both of them.

    The C'Tan 
The C'Tan, Divine Race of Star Killing (Star Gods, the Ynigr (as a group). Notable members are Aza'Gorod the Nightbringer, Mephet'ran the Deceiver, Mag'ladroth the Void Dragon, Tsara'noga the Outsider, lesser known are Llandu'gor the Flayer, Nyadra'zatha the Burning One and Yggra'nya the World Maker)
  • Greater Deities (their shards), Overdeities (the original C'Tan)
  • Alignment: Lawful Evil (Mag'ladroth), Neutral Evil (Aza'Gorod, Llandu'gor and Mephet'ran), Chaotic Evil (Nyadra'zatha and Tsara'noga)
  • Portfolio: Cosmic Horrors That Feed and Poison Stars, Jerkass Gods, Sufficiently Advanced Alien, Possibly the Oldest Beings in the Galaxy, The Reason the Necrons are the Way They Are, Reality Warper, Pieces of God, Touch of Death, Eating Souls as Well as Stars, Gluttony as a Fatal Flaw, Also Eats Terror And does Vampiric Draining, Broke Your Arm Punching Out Cthulhu
  • Domains: Terror, Consumption, Stars, Corruption (all of them), Thanatophobia, Death, Scythes (Aza'Gorod), Trickery, Manipulation, Cruelty (Mephet'ran), Technology, Dragons, Mars (Mag'ladroth), Isolation, Insanity (Tsara'noga), Curses (Llandu'gor), Fire (Nyadra'zatha), Creation (Yggra'nya)
  • Interests: H.P. Lovecraft and the Cthulhu Mythos (all of them), Medusa Gorgon (Tsara'noga), the House of Flesh Eaters (Llandu'gor)
  • Allies (as a whole): The Old Gods, The Gravemind, The Dementors, Ungoliant, Pennywise, Pinbacker
  • Headbutting Villains with: Apophis, The Grox, Nekron and the Grand United Alliance of Destruction (all of them)
  • Rivals: Galactus, Unicron
  • Enemies (as a whole): The Necrons, The Chaos Gods (really any living thing in the Warhammer 40000 universe), The Emotions, (especially Aza'Gorod), anyone who made a Deal with the Devil and lost, Mata Nui, Ra, Shin, Bro'dee Walker, Rosalina (really any star-based deity), The Life Entity, The Chozo, Mogo, Robert Capa, Eru Ilúvatar, Aslan, The Love That Moves The Stars, The Heroic Protectors of Family, Jean-Luc Picard, Q, The Doctor, James T. Kirk, every other soul, star and sun-related god, period.
  • Before the Imperium of Man, before the Eldar, before even the Necrons were the C'Tan. Entities born of swirling gases and energies at least as old as the galaxy, they feast on the radiation of stars and slowly poison them. Eventually coming across the Necrontyr, they found mass consumption of souls even tastier and tricked them into surrendering their souls for metallic bodies and to make war on the Old Ones, in turn gaining more physical forms. However, their new incarnation, the Necrons, shattered these star gods into pieces. Though these pieces still possess power and consciousness and hope to one day gain back their power.
  • Applies to the C'Tan as a whole
    • These stellar predators may no longer be as mighty as they used to be but are still rightfully feared for their reality warping powers, feasting on stars and consuming souls by the population. The Grand United Alliance of Destruction recognized their destructive potential and were behind their summoning in the Pantheon. While they help out Nekron's desire to destroy all life, they have issues in working with the GUAD since if all stars and souls are destroyed, they'll starve. For now, they work together.
    • Their desire to extinguish and consume the stars, unfortunately, has a fair number of supporters. Pinbacker has become a deranged supporter and claims that they are "God's angels" who usher in the end times. Robert Capa wonders if they were responsible for his own Sun dying off. The Grox thrive in the radiated, poisoned stars the C'Tan leave behind, though know from what happened to the Necrons to be very cautious about these beings. On the other hand, they know to be cautious about Apophis because while the snake can help take out opposing stellar gods, it won't stop until everything, likely including them, is gone.
    • Said desire gives them a lot of enemies as well, as you'd expect. In their own universe, they have a special hatred for the Warp and its psychic energies. As the Sun's guardian, Ra despises them, as do Rosalina and Utsuho Reiuji given their guardian role towards stars. Bro'dee Walker is diligently working to heal the stars they poison, and this has led them to want to kidnap him for eternally renewing their energy source.
    • Naturally eat away at stars, but prefer souls. And given their power, they want it by the population. And they eat at emotions, primarily gibbering terror. This makes them enemies with the Emotions, and they hunger for Lord Death's soul as well due to how large it is. The Dementors agree with their feeding habits, and Pennywise is deeply intrigued due to his habit of eating people and finding fear a form of "salting the meat". They're competing in the "cosmic consumption" field with Galactus and Unicron. H.P Lovecraft notes they are similar to the Elder Gods of the Cthulhu Mythos, and the Old Gods recognize a lot of similarities between them.
    • The Divine Powers, their plan appeals to them due to the following chart; The cycle of life and death = Krishna's Great Singularity = Inexhaustible supply of reincarnating souls to eat = Returns to the Singularity = Redistributed back for the C'Tan = Rinse and Repeat. Though this alliance is tenuous as their gluttony makes it tempting to simply betray them then and there...and they're the best divinity the C'Tan has gotten along with besides the Old Gods. Eru Ilúvatar, Aslan and the Love That Moves The Stars are massively disappointed at them for being depraved representations of gluttony that don't even try to improve themselves and fail to realize the value in sentient beings. Especially Aslan, given star are sentient where he comes from.
    • The Gravemind gravitated towards the C'Tan as well, since it is a malevolent precursor who wants to get back at the universe for its well-deserved downfall by those it abused. On the other hand, another highly evolved cosmic being, Q, considers them disgusting for only caring about eating on a cosmic scale. James T Kirk and the Doctor consider them pretty inferior as far as "superior beings" go, and the Heroic Protectors of Family equate them to the cosmic equivalent of Abusive Parents who want to continue being abusive assholes.
  • Specific to Aza'Gorod
    • Aza'Gorod the Nightbringer is the most blatantly terrifying of the C'Tan. It delights in bringing pain and suffering to life, which is easy to do thanks to resembling The Grim Reaper. In fact it is why sentient beings fear death in the first place, due to mind raping their ancestors. Other grim reapers detest him for this and being a highly sadistic death god, and the Destroyer Deity Beerus considers him to be an unpleasant disgrace to destroyers everywhere. The Death of Final Destination, however, thinks what he does is hilarious.
    • Feels a kinship with Diabolo for their love of inflicting the most primal of fears, as it does Freddy Krueger for spreading both terror and death through nightmares. SCP-106 is happy to join in the fun, as is Deathwing the Destroyer. Voldemort and Ra's Al Ghul consider the Nightbringer to be the premiere reason why death is to be feared and abhorred. It's also believed that the Nightbringer may be one of the three deaths causing trouble for SCP-1440
  • Specific to Mephet'ran
    • Mephet'ran the Deceiver is the trickster of the C'Tan, and it is he who offered the Necrontyr the means to transform themselves into the Necrons. It loves messing with literally everyone it can, even its own C'Tan like getting the Nightbringer to eat other C'Tan. It loves trolling with Yuuki Terumi and Belial...at least when they're not trolling each other. Sometimes both at the same time.
    • Victims of Mind Rape despise the Deceiver. The Deceiver isn't a fan of whenever "lesser" beings manage to outsmart it. It knows how Doctor Doom has taken power from cosmic beings multiple times, and wants nothing of him less he try to hijack his shards and power. Teridax is interested in hijacking the Deceiver's powers as well.
  • Specific to Mag'ladroth
    • Maga'ladroth the Void Dragon is arguably the strongest C'Tan. It wrecked havoc across the universe, until it was confronted by the God Emperor of Mankind, and the monster was sealed in Mars. It may be the Omnissiah, but most conflate it with the Emperor. The House of Machinery and Technology is trying to dissuade people from accidentally worshiping this thing, though SKYNET is fond of it as a possible means of destroying all organic life. And AM admires the cruelty of the C'Tan, and wants to work with the Void Dragon to spread misery beyond the Earth.
    • Benevolent dragons aren't a fan of the Void Dragon either. Despite being the mother of dragons, even Daenerys considers it to be an abomination that doesn't deserve to be considered a dragon. The Dovakhiin sees Mag'ladroth as a dragon, but being a dragonslayer that makes the C'Tan a big challenge instead. No-one from Mars likes it either, with J'onn J'onnz always at the ready to stop it from endangering his homeworld or the rest of the universe.
  • Applies to other C'Tan
    • Tsara'noga the Outsider is perhaps the most mysterious of the C'Tan. It was tricked into self-induced exile within a Dyson Sphere, and the experience has driven it gibberingly insane. And it brings madness to all within its vicinity. This makes it an enemy to all deities from Soul Eater, except for two. First is Medusa Gorgon, who wishes to exploit the madness it brings. The other is Kishin Asura, who as a being of madness feels a certain kinship with the Outsider.
    • Of the C'Tan, Llandu'gor the Flayer is the only one to be killed by shattering. In its death, it cursed the Necrons with a Flayer Virus. This led to the Flayed Ones, who have an unquenchable hunger for warm flesh and the blood of the living. It claims influence in the House of Flesh Eaters, and they in turn are interested in its curse and how it brings people to cannibalism. The Flayer is most interested in Piggsy's specific madness. It seems impressed by Demise managed to curse the land of Hylia so his hatred forever troubles the land.
    • Nyadra'zatha the Burning One has long sought to burn down the Webway and beyond. The Necrons used its shards to allow the FTL travel they need. A complete pyromaniac, he tends towards fellow pyros such as Ragnaros, Brand and Surtr. The more benevolent deities of fire look down on the Burning One.

Sekhmet
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hathor_78.png
  • Greater Goddess
  • Symbol: The solar disc and uraes (Sekhmet), cow horns with the sun disc between them (Hathor)
  • Alignment: Chaotic Evil, Chaotic Neutral on a good day (Sekhmet), Chaotic Good (Hathor)
  • Portfolio: Cat Folk, Jekyll & Hyde
  • Domains: War, The Sun, Bloodlust, Poisons and Plagues, Lionesses (Sekhmet), Drunkenness, Fertility, Music, Motherhood, Joy, Cows (Hathor)
  • High Priest: The Angry Sun
  • Followers: Prometheus, Solaris the Tyrant Sun, Akhaten, Mr Bright
  • Varying relationship with: Other solar deities, Robert Capa, (enemies or opposing as Sekhmet, neutral or positive as Hathor), Zamasu, Lysandre (Teeth-Clenched Teamwork as Sekhmet, enemies as Hathor)
  • Allies:
  • On good terms with: Aurelion Sol
  • Vitriolic Best Buds with: Beerus, Samael (both versions)
  • On speaking terms with: The House of Light and Brightness (notably Necrozma)
  • Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: The rest of the Egyptian pantheon, the ascended pharaohs
  • Enemies: Apophis, YHVH, Mr. Burns, Nyarlathotep (Cthulhu Mythos), Hajun, the C'Tan, Pinbacker
    • As Sekhmet: All night deities, Eliphas, the House of Vampires, potentially everyone if she gets too bloodthirsty.
    • As Hathor: Walder Frey
  • Commonality Connection with: Sheogorath
  • The sun is often seen as a source of warmth, joy, and goodness. Light Is Good is a popular opinion. But it has a dark side, like droughts and heat stroke. Sekhmet is the violent side of the sun, a war goddess with a lust for blood who's wrath would've destroyed humanity had Ra not got her drunk on red alcohol that resembled blood.
  • Applies to both
    • Sekhmet has a Jekyll and Hyde situation, with her alternate form being the benevolent goddess Hathor. Liquor helps here keep on her Hathor side. Much like Sheogorqth is a chaotic deity with a lawful god imprisoned in him, Sekhmet and Hathor are two opposing sides of the same entity. Though it is far more natural and they are in better graces than the Daedric Prince.
    • Because of her behavior, pretty much every solar or lunar deity steps on eggshells when it comes to Sekhmet/Hathor. While Hathor is much more welcoming to other solar deities, and Sekhmet has respect for most of them, they don't like her malevolent actions as the sun. However some of the light and sun have accepted her, and she has behaved herself in the House of Light and Brightness. Necrozma relates due to its past wrath towards humans and light, mainly wanting her to be calmer and act more like Hathor.
    • Both Sekhmet and Hathor are on good terms with Aurelion Sol since his True Neutral nature means he has no comment on the former's violent tendencies and guardianship of stars means he looks after them. Both share a number of enemies. There's YHVH who cannot abide by rival pantheons, Mr. Burns due to his ambition to block out the sun, the C'Tan for feeding off stars and Pinbacker for wanting to shut down the sun.
    • Can be seen hanging out with Beerus. Asides from being cat folk and deities(the former not so much as Hathor), they are both destroyers with a good side. She is also peaceful at Lucifer Morningstar's bar since he created stars and light. On her bad days, Mephiles seems fond of Sekhmet due to the fact he also has a misanthropic hatred of mankind and is one half of a sun god.
  • Applies to Sekhmet
    • In her wrath, she seeks to destroy humanity for sin. It's a mindset similar to Zamasu, and like Robot Santa Claus she is exceptionally judgmental. Zamasu believes she is a useful ally to achieve his Zero Mortal Plan, however, she knows he's not to be trusted as she won't kill her fellow gods to do so. While Sekhmet can be calmed with booze, it is highly advised to not give Zamasu liquor to lessen his misanthropy. It's not even known if Kaioshin can get drunk.
    • Lysandre and Shinbou Sensui are one of the few human beings who side and encourage Sekhmet's violent behavior, wanting her to bring her wrath on ungrateful humans. Of course, given her attitude, she is likely to take them out as well, but they're willing to take the risk. Robot Santa Claus likes her judgement of humanity, due to believing almost everyone is guilty.
    • A goddess of war, she loves conflict and blood. As mentioned, Ra got her drunk on beer by disguising it as blood. Her literal bloodthirst meant that she absolutely loved the House of Blood and Gore, and totally agreed with Khorne's war beliefs. Same with Bellona. Unfortunately, this led her on a rampage for blood in the House of Vampires, who immediately burned due to being the goddess of the sun.
    • Despite her violent nature, Sekhmet will still guard the pharaohs. She is not as omnicidal as Apophis. Even she was shocked at the sheer homicidal insanity that was Hajun and despises Nyarlathotep for appropriating Egyptian lore into him. On the flip side, Eliphas thinks she's way too much of a Knight Templar when it comes to humanity.
  • Applies to Hathor:
    • Far friendlier than her alter-ego, Hathor is the goddess of general fun and partying. She is also the goddess of love, having been paired with almost every god in different versions of the mythology. She gets along with Aphrodite, for being a goddess of love and beauty like her. As a goddess of parties, she gets along with Pinkie Pie, and naturally has nothing good to say about Walder Frey's Red Wedding.
    • Appears to be fond of Sakura Matou. She's the human vessel of Parvati, the Hindu Goddess of Love who took the lighter aspects of Sakura. And also Kama, who is also the Hindu God(dess) of Love who took the darker aspects of Sakura who is also Beast III/L. She can personally relate to Sakura having an Ax-Crazy Superpowered Evil Side, given Sekhmet.
    • Is the goddess of cows, usually appearing as a cow or woman with cow horns. She is guardian to all bovine deities in the pantheon for this reason. She is also the goddess of alcohol and a Hard-Drinking Party Girl, who was overjoyed at the existence of the House of Alcohol and spends much of her time there. It's a good way to prevent her more homicidal alter ego from showing up.

Intermediate Gods

    Andromeda 
Andromeda, Goddess of Bodies Made Out of Stars
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/store_hero_andromeda.png
  • Intermediate Goddess
  • Symbol: The starry sky
  • Alignment: Neutral Good
  • Portfolio: Body Made Out of Stars, Blue Flaming Hair, Amnesiac Hero, Space Master, Gravity Master, Echoing Monotone
  • Domains: Personal Appearance, Stars, Space, Memories
  • Followers: Cosmic Guide, Ursa Major and Ursa Minor, Algalon the Observer, The Starborn
  • Allies: The Eternity, Geo Stelar and Omega-Xiz, Rosalina, Palkia, Kat
  • Rivals: Champions of Runeterra, The Defenders of the Ancients
  • Andromeda is a star-born celestial entity who for some reason ended up in Newerth. With no memories of her origins or her kind, she decided to fight against the Hellbourne to protect Newerth purely out of instinct.
  • As the first warrior from Newerth to ascend, she had a bit of a cold welcome from the Defenders of the Ancients, and to slight degree from the Champions of Runeterra. Mainly as no one really thought that anyone from that realm would manage to ascend. Still, they are not overly bitter about it, and don't necessarily mind more of them to come if it comes to it.
    • The Defenders of the Ancients have noted that her fighting style is disturbingly similar to that of Shendelzare, but she herself is quite different.
  • No one is really sure what she is, in reality. As in, what kind of species she belongs to, as the only one around. Well, if you don't count this one red, muscular being with a Celestial Body what is sometimes seen on Newerth. It might be Andromeda trying a different form. She seems to be trying to get Rosalina's help to possibly travel in space in search of her origins.
    • Speaking of the muscular being, some gods have said that it sort of looks like Maijin Buu in a sense.
    • Some Champions of Runeterra speculate that she might be related to Aurelion Sol, but no one is absolutely sure on that.
  • At first, Geo Stelar and Omega-Xiz were scared of her arrival, due to her sharing a name with a Planet Eater creature they once took down. Fortunately, they were able to sort out the confusion.
    • She should also not be confused with Andromeda Shun. Greek deities also briefly mistook her to the princess who was almost fed to a sea monster for said to been more beautiful than Nereids until Perseus saved her. Perseus himself was disappointed that his wife wasn't in the Pantheon.
  • She gets along with Kat, as both of them are heroes who have lost their identities, but are more concern helping others than simply seeking their true origins.
  • Sympathizes with Ben Tennyson due to his rather uncontrollable Alien X form.
  • Can also be found in Physical Appearance.

  • Shouketsu!note 
  • The Space Sheriffs are a group of heroic law enforcers from outer space, working under the Galactic Union Patrol, a Universe-reaching agency dedicated to keeping order and peace throughout the Universe. The first three of them had a notable history:
    • The first one was Gavan I/Retsu Ichihouji, the first sheriff to be sent to Earth. Whose mission was to stop the evil plans of the Space Criminal Organization the Makuu, who plotted to throw Earth into darkness and steal all the riches to let it fall into chaos for their amusement. Assisted by Mimi a woman from Planet Bird; where he trained, he bravely fought against the Makuu, until he finally defeated their leader, Don Horror. Eventually he would retire from his position as a Space Sheriff, passing the mantle to a young man named Geki Jumonji, who himself was assisted by Mimi's cousin, Shelly. Geki carries on Retsu's legacy as Gavan, now that Retsu's been promoted to Commander following a temporary retirement. Despite that, Retsu will not doubt one second about entering the battlefield to fight evil should push come to shove.
    • Sharivan I/Den Iga was the second sheriff of Earth. He started out as a forest ranger on Earth until the Makuu criminal, Buffalo Doubler fatally wounded him forcing Retsu/Gavan I to save his life and have him brought to Planet Bird to be healed. In the planet he was given cybernetic enhancements and special training to become Space Sheriff Sharivan, who assisted Gavan in his last fight against the Makuu. Some time after the fall of Makuu, he was put in charge of combating the Space Crime Syndicate Madou; lead by Demon King Psycho, who plotted to conquer the Universe by spreading chaos all across the cosmos, starting with Earth. Assisted by his assistant and girlfriend, Lily Sharivan fought fiercely against Madou's forces, and with Gavan's help was successful in stopping their plans and defeating their leader. Once he retired, Kai Hyuga was assigned as his successor, but Iga refused to acknowledge his successor as a worthy sheriff, as Kai believed that all that mattered to being a Space Sheriff was keeping the law, it wasn't until Kai found out the true meaning of his duties that Iga was fully willing to accept him as his succesor.
    • Shaider I/Dai Sawamura, the third and last of the original sheriffs. Originating from Earth like Shaider he was picked up by the Galactic Patrol for his skills and given special training as a Sheriff. Soon enough he was assigned to deal with the Fuuma, a mysterious criminal organization responsible for the destruction of various planets. Assisted by a fellow trainee, Annie, Sharivan protected Earth from the newest threat. With the help of his predecessors, Shaider triumphed and Earth was safe. Years later, Shaider would retire from his position as Sheriff... Or may have died of unknown causes.
  • All three retired, with successors taking their place in the fight against evil:
    • Geki Jumonji is Retsu's successor as Gavan, being given the name of Gavan Type-G to differentiate him fom his predecessor, at first he was a rookie with a lot of inexperience, and had previously lost his originally assigned partner and childhood friend, Toya, as well as recklessness that got him in trouble with his superiors and seniors. He also lacked much fighting skill and was prone to requiring help to win his battles. He is assisted by Shelly, Mimi's cousin. At first his inexperience led to his superiors almost revoking his position as Sheriff after the Makuu threatened to return and Geki proved inefficient at preventing them from starting their plans, with his senior cadets Sharivan II and Shaider II being sent in his place to take care of the situation, but he eventually proved himself worthy of the position once given another chance, ever since he's proven a lot more flexible than his fellow Sheriffs and is willing to break the law if it's the right thing, even if it gets him in constant trouble with his superiors.
    • Kai Hyuga is Den Iga's succesor as Sharivan, taking the mantle after the latter's retirement. At first he was hot-blooded and a no-nonsense type of cop, being focused solely on the part of upholding the law and not in protecting the people which failed to earn him Den Iga's respect or willingness to view him as a worthy successor. Once he had more time to learn about the duties and true meaning of being a Sheriff, he was finally accepted by his predecessor and recognized as a true Sheriff.
    • Shu Karasuma is Dai Sawamura's successor, while he was a competent sheriff, he had issues with his assigned partner and girlfriend, Tammy, who disliked Shu's womanizing ways. The two were put in charge of investigating various crimes across the Universe including those that Geki and Kai had to deal with, though the tension made their team hard to pull off, especially due to Shu losing his ability to transform temporarily, but luckily they managed to work things out and have gone back to being a tight team following Shu recovering his transformation and uncovering the conspiracy behind the various crimes.
  • Have made good friends with the Ultra Series Deities thanks to them being guardians of the Universes. Especially the original Ultraman, who himself belongs to the Space Garrison, a similar organization of galactic peacekeepers. Helps that they have crossed paths with Ultraman in the past when they and various other heroes teamed up to defeat Hakaider and Kamen Rider Ouja who were fighting the Kamen Rider 555 Riders. The Sheriffs have thought of making sure the Land of Light and Galactic Patrol Union are allied to take care of any possibility of their enemies meeting.
  • Retsu once sent Geki to eliminate Kamen Rider Wizard and Beast due to a misunderstanding leading to the Galactic Patrol thinking they were responsible for various magic-related incidents across the Universe. Geki would soon suspect they were not responsible once he met Wizard in person, attempting to clear their name, only to get his position revoked for it and causing Kai and Shu to be sent in his place, and soon enough found out that the true culprits were their resurrected enemies, The Madou, after teaming up with the Riders and Super Sentai teams, the Galactic Patrol was soon informed of the real villains and their true plans, while Geki, Kai and Shu befriended the Riders without issue and have remained allies ever since.
  • Having teamed up with the Go-Busters and Gokaigers on various occasions, the Sheriffs have remained strong allies with them, despite some previous misunderstandings and conflicts with both groups. In the Gokaiger's case their friendship is helped by the fact that a young Marvelous' life was saved by Retsu at some point in the past, with Marvelous remaining grateful to his savior to this day.
  • In one occasion, Retsu mistook Riku Asakura for Marvelous. Once he realized it was a different person, he noted how much Riku resembles Marvelous in his youth. Riku himself became a big fan of Retsu and the Sheriffs, given their similarities to his favorite Tokusatsu hero, Don Shine, and even joked about joining the Galactic Patrol Union with them.
  • Any good-aligned law enforcers are their allies, especially those with more flexible mentalities, a few examples stand out above the others:
    • Robocop, who became what he is today under a similar process to the Sheriff's own, and didn't allow this to stop him from practicing and enforcing good law, as well as his will being strong enough to overcome some of the programming he was given and not giving up on life despite his new state, the Sheriffs have offered to help Robocop further recover his humanity and upgrade his suit, hoping to strengthen Robocop and help his crime-fighting career, especially here in the Pantheon.
    • Wright Anything Agency, which takes care of protecting the innocent and are rather nobler than most law enforcers in the Pantheon. The Agency itself sees their ascension as a sign of good things to come, since the Sheriff's more morally grounded attitude is something they are more than happy to welcome. They especially like Geki due to his flexibility when combating crime.
  • They're uneasy allies with Judge Dredd. Though he is usually ruthless, he is been improving about his previous attitude on law, especially seeing the various extremists in the Pantheon who show him just how flawed and corrupt law can get when exerted without measure or restraint.
    • The Green Lantern Corps, likewise, also became quick allies with the Sheriffs thanks to a shared goal of combating crime and evil and keeping peace across the Galaxy. Though some of the members can butt heads at times, the Galactic Patrol Union and Lantern Corps remain firm allies overall and will not doubt about helping each other's causes.
  • They fiercely oppose corrupt or extremist law enforcers, as they consider the happiness and safety of people to be their priority, with the law coming second, due to Character Development on all of their part.
    • The actions of CRASH enrage them a lot. As the duo of corrupt cops used the criminal cartels and gangs of Los Santos as means of keeping their city under control, their nastiness and utter disregard for good laws have made them high-priority targets of the Sheriffs, who have vowed to make sure they won't taint the law any further. CJ and his allies have entered an uneasy alliance with the Sheriffs themselves as though they don't operate within the law, they still hate C.R.A.S.H. for all the things they made them go through and any who helps take them down for good is an ally in their book.
    • The Dark Judges, ruthless law enforcers who kill all who breach their laws. Not only are the Sheriffs enraged by the extremes that they take their law enforcement, but their senseless killing of people also make their blood boil with rage. They've sought out help from fellow law enforcers like Robocop and Judge Dredd to make sure they won't harm inncoents anymore.
    • Darkseid, the Opressive Lord of Apokolips, who seeks to subjugate life itself. A tyrant without any remorse, his cruelty is only second to his absolute desire to view all else subjugated. This has made him the Sheriffs' top priority target, as they have been informed of the catastrophe that Darkseid would bring if he got his hands on the Anti-Life Equation. Thus, they have been working to make sure Darkseid and his forces are taken down eventually.
    • Finally there's the Galactic Empire due to its ties with criminal organizations and their exertion of evil law. Particularly stands out Palpatine and Tarkin, the chief architects of the Empire's absolute worst actions and their most oppressive laws. Palpatine has grown to see them as a major threat to his rule due to the Galactic Patrol Union having a planet-destroying weapon at their disposal, which can rival the Death Star in power. For other criminals of that Universe there's Jabba the Hutt, the mob boss who is renowed for his cruelty and sadism, although the Sheriffs view him as a lesser priority of a target due to the Empire's and other evil governments' presence.
  • All of them are opposed to the Grand United Alliance of Law. As while they are galactic peacekeepers and law enforcers, they have all realized at one point or the other the negative consequences of absolute law. While they may be allies with some of the members of it, they don't approve of the goals as a whole. They especially oppose YHVH, whose absolute law they won't stand for, as they believe that living beings deserve freedom and YHVH's ultimate goal will limit what little freedom can be achieved.
  • Altough they are law enforcers, certain people that are operating or operated outside of the law have also become their allies:
    • Despite his past as a Yakuza member, Kazuma Kiryu didn't take long to become one of their allies thanks to his fierce drive towards not fighting as much as possible and protecting children, to the point that Kiryu takes more pride in protecting and caring for children at an orphanage than anything else he's done in his life. Both traits which they find especially surprising for someone who'd previously belonged to a large criminal organization.
    • While the Star Fox Team may be mercenaries for hire, their fight for the common good and safety of the Universe allowed both groups to befriend each other. Among their members, a small rivalry between Kai and Falco arose, usually on who is the best shot and melee fighter. Meanwhile the 3 original Sheriffs and Peppy enjoy to share their stories with each other, usually having a laugh about their retirements from field duties without actively leaving their job altogether, Peppy himself was quite impressed to learn that Retsu got ascended once he retired as a Space Sheriff, and was also glad he could settle down with the woman he loves in peace.
    • Samus Aran, who while being a bounty hunter, is much more morally grounded than the ones that the Space Sheriffs usually fight. She is glad that with their ascension there are more law enforcers that can help the fight against evil. She's also started a rivalry with Geki, who was impressed by her fighting skills enough to request a friendly fight. It does help that Samus has cooperated previously with law-enforcing factions, and therefore little is required to make them team up.
    • Dominic Toretto, who also has worked for law enforcement on occasion. His case is helped by the fact that he's a genuinely good person despite his past and will fight and oppose those who are legitimately evil or criminals who are far worse than he was.
  • At any rate, it is safe to say that monstrous and unforgivable criminals are high on their enemies list. Chief among them are those in the House of Crime and Transgressions.
    • Frieza and King Cold are two notable examples of their worst enemies, given the duo's knack for trafficking planets and causing wanton destruction for the sake of keeping their power. Their cruelty towards their minions (even if Frieza has toned it down for pragmatic reasons). Their genocides also contributed to making the Sheriffs loathe the planet-dealers. This enmity also extends to Frieza's brother, Cooler, though given Cooler's absence on his duties of planet-trafficking he's not as high on their list as the rest of his family. Likewise, Frost of Universe 6 is also high as a priority target, moreso due to pretending to be a good guy and a law enforcer, which resonates too badly with many impostors and fake law enforcers that the Sheriffs had to deal with.
    • Professor Moriarty, the well-known criminal mastermind. Despite his nature as a criminal restricted to Earth, his dangerous mind has made him a target of the Sheriffs, who know fully well from cooperation with Sherlock Holmes and associates. Moriarty himself is intrigued by the Sheriffs, hoping they can prove as challenging to play mind games against as Sherlock is.
    • Dangerous serial killers such as The Joker, Takeshi Asakura and Victor Zsasz are also among their highest priorities to take down in any circumstances. The sheer depravity of the three criminals and their viciousness being big factors in their positions. Likewise, Asakura's own enmity with the Kamen Riders has made the Sheriffs label him as one of the greater threats to face.
    • As a result of becoming allies with Samus, the Sheriffs have also become enemies with her hated foes, such as Ridley and Mother Brain, due to their sheer cruelty and unforgivable actions against innocents. The two's dealings with Phazon, also extended the Sheriff's enmity towards the planetary parasite, viewing it as an entity to be completely exterminated due to the risk of their.
  • They have put the Diamond Authority on strict surveillance, while the trio might have redeemed themselves they still caused a lot of damage to the Universe in the past. For the most part, they are willing to let them be due to their Heel–Face Turn, but have clarified that the moment the Diamonds try anything funny, they will take necessary actions to protect Earth and the Universe from anything they try.
  • On rare occasions they'll team up with Wolf from the Star Wolf mercenary team. While he is far more scrupulous as a bounty hunter and was once affiliated with Andross, he at least appears to be good deep down and won't doubt about fighting the good fight if the situation calls for it. Thus the Sheriffs are willing to give them a wide berth, even if they feel uneasy about it. With Geki being the only one of them that doesn't minds as much.
  • Another enemy they gained was Ragyo Kiryuin, a sadistic human woman who betrayed her own species to the Life Fibers for the sake of power, and that's not getting into what she did to Ryuko and Satsuki, her daughters. The Sheriffs view her as a high-priority target due to the dangers that the Life Fibers can pose to the Universe and Ragyo's complete insanity only worsening the problem.
    • In a similar vein, Black Doom has also earned their ire with his plans of using humanity as cattle for himself and his lack of care about anyone but himself.
  • They have also ran into problems with the Eliksni, as the race of ravenous, planet-looters have brought upon the Sheriff's opposition of their actions. Though Geki feels pity for their situation, he won't condone the extremes they take to get resources, as he considers it unfair to the innocents caught in their fight.
  • Have become great allies with the good-aligned Star Wars deities. Particularly Luke Skywalker, Padme Amidala, and Rogue One. Mainly due to their roles in keeping peace in the galaxy and confrontin the Empire, Separatists and various other evils that plagued their lives. The Star Wars deities remain as one of their most firm allies. There's also a bit of a rivalry between Shu and Rey, mainly on swordfighting due to their skills with light swords.
  • Are fierce enemies with invading alien forces such as the Decepticons, the Martians, the Daleks, the Combine, the Vex, the Shroobs among many others. Most especially those groups for the devastation they brought upon the Universe and their actions towards the inhabitants of planets they invaded, as well as the fact that their ultimate goal is complete domination of the Universe, which will involve subjecting all other lifeforms to slavery or extinction.
    • On the Daleks, their desire to destroy and exterminate all that isn't them or fits their view, makes them the number 1 priority for the Sheriffs over all the other alien races. The Daleks themselves hate them for beign a law-enforcing unit that operates on a galactic/universal scale and as such have placed them high on their enemies' list.
    • Similarly, they've put creatures such as the Aparoids, Tyranids and Gyaos on a extermination list, due to the danger their uncontrolled growth poses to all living beings. For the task, various of their allies such as Ellen Ripley, Samus, the Star Fox and Star Wolf teams, the Lantern Corps, Riders, Sentai and Ultra are all willing to lend a hand in order to deal with the threats.
  • Loathe Davros for the genocide of his own species and representing the worst parts of scientific advancement as a whole. That he also plans on removing emotions such as kindness and compassion also made them hate him, as while the Sheriffs can occasionally be harsh, they mean well and don't reject the idea of being kinder and more forgiving in general.
  • They be found also in the House of Officers.

  • Every 200 years, the Greek goddess Athena reincarnates on Earth to combat evil. At her disposal are up to 88 warriors called Saints, who wear special armor, or Cloths, designed after the heavenly constellations. Athena's reincarnation in the 20th century was nearly murdered in her crib by one of her sworn warriors, Gemini Saga, but Sagittarius Aiolos saved her at the cost of his own life and entrusted her to the care of Mitsumasa Kido. Knowing the fate of the world depended on his adopted daughter, now christened Saori, having warriors she could trust, Kido acquired multiple orphan infants (or sired them himself according to other sources) and sent them to different parts of the world to endure unimaginably rigorous training for the right of donning a Cloth. Seiya, Shiryu, Hyoga, Shun and Ikki are some of those children who went on to become Saori's most loyal warriors, as well as some of her most powerful.
  • Their ascension took place when the Spartan soldier Kratos was about to confront Athena for fooling and manipulating him. Through sheer force of will, the ever loyal Bronze Saints manifested all at once just as Kratos was about to strike her with all his rage. An enormous, brutal battle took place between the Saints and Kratos, with their determination keeping them all going. In the end, though it lasted days, it was the Saints who triumphed most likely due to the fact that they are five, and eventually at some point they were donning the God Cloths, and Kratos is only one. But still, it was quite the spectacle for those who could watch it and not die in the crossfire, such that the Saints were quickly awarded with godhood. Despite the implication that this puts them on equal footing with their master Athena, it suits her just fine to have her praetorian guard available right away and there's really nobody she trusts more. It suits the Saints fine too, as this means they can hasten to protect her from the new threats in this Pantheon.
  • Some time after the Saints settled at their temple, Kratos showed up again at their door, but unusually, he told the Saints to stand down as he just wanted to give them one or two words. Specifically, that Athena may not be the beacon of virtue and altruism that the Saints think her to be. Hearing his beloved Saori getting besmirched by Kratos made Seiya's blood boil, though he barely managed to keep his cool and hear the Spartan out. At the end of it, the Bronze Saints replied that they were the sworn warriors of Athena and would never betray her even in death, as they still firmly believe she is the light that will guide humanity out of dark times and save them from destruction. Kratos sighed and simply accepted they would be deadly enemies from that point on. He finds it somewhat a pity, since he respects their strong resolve, but then if they're willing to waste it on Athena, he supposes there's nothing more to be said.
  • The Saints are essentially neutral towards most other actual gods, including the Olympians, and will fight or ally with them depending on how they act towards Athena. There are some who are consistent enemies, though, most notably Hades, who the Saints perceive to be Athena's, and therefore their, greatest foe. The Saints see Athena's grief that Hades will eradicate the human species which she loves and cares for so much, and so will stop at nothing to defeat the Lord of the Underworld and his 108 Specters. Poseidon's long-lasting rivalry with Athena also ensures that feelings remain hostile between the sea god and the Saints, and they won't forget he once enclosed Athena in a pillar to drown and meant to flood the whole Earth. Poseidon has his own equivalent warriors in the form of the seven Mariners, which despite their low number, are considerably more powerful than the Saints. There's also Ares, which the Saints have never personally fought, but his enmity towards Athena is well-known and so they keep an eye out for him and his warriors, the Berserkers. They've also fought against the chaos goddess Eris, unpleasant as ever, and her own cadre of warriors.
  • The Saints found that their kind is not the only one that champions Athena, with Diana of Themyscira/Wonder Woman being one of those likely to answer the goddess' call for aid. Although, given Diana also has the Justice League and the threats from her own world to worry about, she feels thankful to have sure reinforcements in the very devoted Saints. She can be somewhat critical of the treatment female Saints have been given in the past, with them being made to wear masks (the rest of the Amazons are even more acerbic in said criticisms). She's quite happy that some female Saints have kicked that tradition to the curb with no repercussion. Seiya and co. have assured her that they believe female Saints can be just as valiant as male ones, and would willingly fight alongside them, provided their loyalty to Athena is true. Likewise, they'll never denigrate Diana herself for being a woman and see her as another comrade at arms.
  • When the Saints heard Athena had a daughter in the form of Annabeth Chase, they agreed it was a given that they would swear their fealty to her and protect her, although Annabeth has told them she's fine on her own, thank-you-very-much. Things got a tad muddled for them when it turned out Annabeth's circle of friends consisted of the descendants of many of Athena's enemies; most troublingly, her boyfriend, Percy Jackson, is Poseidon's son. Attempting to bring up these concerns to Annabeth got them rebuffed, so then they sought advice from Athena, who told them not to interfere and simply watch from the sidelines, as Annabeth and her friends were True Companions and a force to be reckoned with in their own right. The Saints decided to let the matter rest and put all their focus on protecting Athena.
  • They find themselves to be on the same page as the Sailor Guardians, who are another set of cosmic-themed warriors who fight against all sorts of dark forces to protect humanity and show as much loyalty to their leader Usagi Tsukino/Sailor Moon as the Saints do to Athena. It helps that Sailor Moon and Athena have pretty similar philosophies when it comes to humanity, thus they sometimes command their warriors to fight together against some common-interest foe.
  • The Saints' most recognizable trademark is their Cloths, which provide awesome power and protection to their wielders, so long as they know to burn their Cosmo (in fact, those who can't do that will find the Cloths to be just a load of heavy scrap metal). Naturally, they feel interested in deities who wear similar Powered Armor, and let's just say a group of idol singers, the Symphogears, is not something they expected to fit the bill. But after hearing their work in eliminating evil beings known as Noise, the Saints decided they should probably be taken seriously despite how preposterous they sounded in concept. Any remaining skepticism was put to rest through some friendly battles proposed by Chris, consisting of Seiya vs Hibiki, Hyoga vs Tsubasa and Ikki vs Chris. A strong bond between the two groups was forged as Seiya and Hibiki impressed each other with their punching power, Hyoga and Tsubasa bonded over having had someone precious to them dying, and the same goes for Ikki and Chris in regards to their evil pasts and how they still hold a certain amount of bloodthirst.
  • The training that goes into making a Saint is no laughing matter. Any pretender has to start when they are toddlers and they are immediately subjected to absurdly grueling conditions, fit to make Olympic athletes cry blood, for years on end. The survival rate is abysmal; of the 100 kids Mitsumasa Kido sent out, only ten came back, which includes these five. Ikki in particular got the worst deal out of the group by getting sent to the literally hellish Death Queen Island, which led to him snapping and turning evil. In all cases, the Saints' incredibly harsh training was really impressive to deities such as Ultraman Leo, who spent much of his early life under similar conditions and they shaped him into the warrior he is now. The infamously brutal (but well-meaning) teacher Izumi Curtis has also taken note of the Saints' training regimes and see what she can integrate into her own (and what NOT to, based on how Ikki turned out); the Elric brothers just count themselves lucky they no longer have to deal with that and are totally taken aback at how Seiya seems to regard Izumi with nostalgic fondness, finding her similar to his own mentor Aquila Marin.
  • Incidentally, the Saints are a fascinating object of study to the Elric brothers for another reason: their Cloths were created by alchemists from the lost Mu continent. Seiya and co. don't really know one iota about alchemy and could only tell them the Jamir tribe, where Aries Mu comes from, would know something about that, since they're the descendants of the Cloths' creators. The brothers and the Saints got into other topics of conversation, such as how Ikki and Shun compare to Edward and Alphonse respectively, with Ikki and Edward being the hotheaded, protective older brothers, and Shun and Alphonse, the calmer, kinder ones; Hyoga's pain at losing his mother, which is shared by the Elrics; and even Shiryu and Edward found some commonality in how they settled down with their wives after their adventures were over. In the middle of all this, Edward was still revving to fight Seiya, just to test his own alchemic creations against a Cloth. Alphonse wanted no part in this and instead chatted pleasantly with Shun on the side. Seiya humored Edward, and while Edward certainly fought smarter than Seiya, he was still overpowered by the Pegasus Saint's sheer power and any weapon he conjured couldn't leave a scratch on his Cloth. Edward had to admit a tribe as ancient as the Jamir really was on another level as far as alchemists go.
  • The Saints' adventures seem to follow a pretty set script, with Athena getting herself stuck in some situation (probably a conveniently slow self-sacrifice to save the world or such) and the Saints needing to fight through many powerful warriors, and in the end usually their chief god, in order to save her under a certain time limit. They found themselves in this situation again in the Pantheon when Hades teamed up with a villain they hadn't heard of yet, Yhwach, and the two kidnapped Athena with the goal of stripping her from her immortality (a morose process, as it turned out) and killing her. The Saints wouldn't let that happen, obviously. Fortunately, they found some extra allies in the form of the Soul Reaper Ichigo Kurosaki and his friends, Yhwach being their personal enemy. Ichigo and co., as it turned out, were no strangers to rescue missions, having gone on them about as often as the Saints have. In the lengthy fight that ensued, Athena was ultimately saved from a grisly fate, and the shared struggle ensured the two teams became fire-forged allies.
  • Another participant in the battle against Hades and Yhwach and their forces was the angel Pit, sent into the fray at the behest of his goddess Palutena. The similar name confused the Saints (well, mainly Seiya) as to whether Palutena is an aspect of the goddess they serve, but Pit explained they were different entities and quite good friends, which is why he was there to help. Seiya and Pit didn't get along amazingly at first, mostly because Seiya said something about how weird it was for an angel to not be able to use his wings and Pit replied Seiya wasn't any better for a supposed Saint of Pegasus. But the two's undeniable similarities eventually shone through; these are two guys who just don't know when to give up and are unwaveringly loyal to their goddesses, leading to the two learning to respect and eventually liking one another. The fight against Hades climaxed when Seiya's God Cloth appeared and Pit got his (temporary) flight power.

    Lunatone and Solrock

  • Portfolio: Solar and Lunar, Psychic Powers, Sentient Meteorites, Many Type Weaknesses, Mighty Glacier, Leviate (both of them), Lunar Faces, Lunacy, Can Know Ice Beam (specific to Lunatone), Solar Faces, The Power of the Sun, Can Learn Fire Moves (specific to Solrock)
  • Domains: Rocks, Meteorites, Space, Psychics
  • High Priest: Mr Shine and Mr Bright
  • Followers: Mac Tonight, Craterface (Lunatone), Mr Sun, Sunbeard (Solrock)
  • Allies: Deoxys, Beheeyem, Xatu, The Fantastic Four, Android 17 and 18, Mogo, Rayquaza, Galaxy Man (both of them), Princess Luna, Reisen Udongein Inaba, Tyrande (Lunatone only), Princess Celestia, Volcarona, Amaterasu, Solaire of Astora (Solrock only)
  • Enemies: Davey Jones, Cyrus (both of them), Dr Eggman, Piccolo (Lunatone only), The Grand Duke Of Owls, Nightmare Moon (Solrock only)
  • Opposes: Water users, Heatran (both of them)
  • During a travel to a meteorite site, people discovered two new Pokemon; Lunatone and Solrock. Known as the Meteroite Pokemon, these sentient rocks greatly resemble a sun and and crescent moon respectively. When Tate and Liza learned that these tropes were open, they helped the two to get ascended.
  • It's believed by many Pokemon researchers that they come from space, being living meteorites. Second hand sources from Deoxys and Beheeyem have confirmed they're extraterrestrial. They're good friends, as alien Pokemon stick together. Unlike many of the scientists at Mossdeep Space Center, they believed Deoxys meant no harm however were glad Rayquaza interfered to prevent any nasty incident.
  • The two got into some trouble with Kirby, due to briefly mistaking them for Mr Shine and Mr Brine, but Kirby quickly realized they were not the same. The two Dream Land figures serve as high priests in case they aren't available, being they can also fuction as a proper moon and sun respectively.
  • Despite being based off the moon and sun, they can not naturally learn Moonlight or Morning Sun unless found in the Dream World. Yes, even though they can also learn other moon and sun-related attacks. Mentioning this annoys them greatly. Lunatone's shiny form also happens to have a blue eye, which may be a Stealth Pun on the rarity of shiny Pokemon
  • They were very interested to learn that Pokemon Sun and Moon was a thing, and are hopeful that they will get a Mega Evolution or Alolan Form there-though they half-suspect they won't get anything just to be contrary. The Meteorite Pokemon also hope to meet the new Pokemon Minior, due to it being the Meteor Pokemon and kind of looks like them.
  • They have great synergy with their partners Tate and Liza, being twins of a sort themselves. They help out with research in Mossdeep Space Center, and later on the space research in the pantheon. Many deities see them, along their trainers, with Galaxy Man in order to determine rocket paths.
  • The two of them proved to be fanboys of the Fantastic Four for their exploration into space, and happily sought out employment with them. They ended up discovering the Green Lantern planet Mogo, who as a colossal yet friendly celestial object they saw it as a possible friend. During these adventures they test out the limits of their psychic abilities and Levitate ability.
  • The two Pokemon may not have the same composition as the celestial bodies they resemble, but they do have an association with them; Solrock is solar powered, while Lunatone gets stronger in the full moon. The two seem to get stronger when closer to solar and lunar deities respectively, particularly the princesses of Equestria, Diana and Leona. Were they not spoken for with Tate and Liza, Lunatone and Solrock would have considered partnering with one of them each.
  • They occasionally hold Stardust, or a Sun and Moon Stone respectively. Though there are few ascended Pokemon whom these items would affect, they're still relatively valuable. They've managed to make some bucks off selling these precious stones in the House of Commerce. In addition, Solrock has an odd alliance with Volcarona since they're both the sun Pokemon, in spite of Volcarona being really weak to Rock-type moves.
  • Lunatone does't like Dr Eggman or Piccolo, due to the same crime; their devastation on the Moon, which deeply hurt him. Piccolo has tried to justify this, as he did it revert Gohan to normal and calm him down. Likewise, Solrock dislikes the Grand Duke of Owls and Nightmare Moon for trying to put out the sun. Both agree that Cyrus is a threat that needs to be stopped; Team Galactic's interests in meteorites and other phenomena from outer space has led Cyrus to try and capture them for his purposes.
  • At one point, prior to their ascension, Solaire of Astora had been studying about Solrock and attempted to capture it. After 7 hours, Solaire came back preaching everyone of what he saw, but would not elaborate. Now that it is here, Solaire has been thinking of appealing to it, though the fact that both of them already have partners means the best he could hope is to be allies, which is easy.
  • Can also be found within the Weather subhouse.

    Ristar 
Ristar, the Sentient Star

  • Enemies: Ridley, Mother Brain, King Ghidorah, Unicron, Planet Remina, The C’Tan, Thanos, Dark Matter Horde, Oryx
  • Admires: Mr. Fantastic, Plastic Man, Monkey D. Luffy
  • In a solar system far, far away, the evil space pirate known as Kaiser Greedy is terrorizing the cosmos and only the efforts of Ristar can stop him. He is one of the children of the mother of shooting star Oruto or the son of a legendary hero that protected the cosmos who was kidnapped and Ristar had to rescue him. Ristar’s main method of getting things done is his extendable arms, allowing him to defeat enemies and getting through the various planets he travels to stop Greedy. Like plenty of stories involving heroes traveling through many places, Ristar is able to thwart Greedy’s plans and restore peace to the cosmos (along with reuniting with his father if possible).
  • Shooting stars across the night skies of the Pantheon planet are quite a spectacle according to those who witness such events. One of those instances ended up being more interesting than usual when one passerby made a wish and a star ended up landing very close to the witness. That star, who introduced himself as Ristar, ended up having arms and legs and decided to explore what this Pantheon planet was. He would then learn that the Pantheon had plenty of planets to explore and that there were those who sought to take over them by any means necessary, including the Pantheon planet itself. Having had the experience to take down Greedy, Ristar decided to take part of the wide world of the Pantheon to thwart those villains, even if they present more of a challenge than what he was used to.
  • Ristar managed to find some common ground with Sonic the Hedgehog thanks to their penchant for traveling across colorful worlds and stopping some megalomaniacal villain from taking over them. Ristar’s adventures brought to mind Sonic’s time at travelling to an interstellar amusement park set up by Dr. Eggman and traversing the planets connected to it in order to thwart Eggman’s world domination plot that involved endangering The Wisps. Ristar had his meeting with Sonic while the latter was going through different planets with the help of The Wisps and the star was intrigued with The Wisps’ capabilities and how they would enhance his current abilities. While Ristar hasn’t gotten any sort of upgrade to his combat skills thus far, he still maintains a good friendship with Sonic and the two have helped each other navigate tricky landscapes to thwart the plans of villains that may reside in those places.
  • Kaiser Greedy was Ristar’s main enemy and a space pirate who used mind control to force the leaders of various planets to obey him. There were a few space pirates in the Pantheon that Ristar had to be worried about, but the fact that some of them were far more destructive in their actions than Greedy ever was angered Ristar a fair bit. The aptly-named group of criminals known as the Space Pirates which have served as major enemies for Samus Aran have engaged in thievery, with the leader Mother Brain seeking to take over the galaxy. The Space Pirates’ most dangerous member is Ridley, a sadistic space dragon who Ristar has had difficulty fighting against whenever their paths cross. In spite of such challenges the two present to Ristar, he is determined that Ridley, Mother Brain, and the rest of those Space Pirates won’t leave destruction in their wake, especially if their actions serve as potential inspiration for Greedy to go further with his plans.
  • A star-shaped creature showed up at Ristar’s home one day and after a quick game of hide-and-seek with it, he followed it and ended up in the Comet Observatory, where others of its kind were present. Ristar would meet up with Rosalina, the owner of the Comet Observatory, and learned that those star-shaped creatures he just encountered were Lumas. Him being a strange-looking star wasn’t lost on Rosalina, but given his role in protecting his own galaxy from a space pirate, she was more than willing to befriend him and he’s become something of a big brother to the Lumas as well. The Lumas’ role in keeping prosperity to the cosmos has given Ristar more of a reason to protect them and offer aid for Rosalina as well.
  • Ristar has traversed many different planets to find Greedy and thwart his plans for galactic domination and the Pantheon featured plenty of planetary bodies that are just as unique as what Ristar had explored prior, if not to a greater extent. Besides planets with strangely themed biomes, there were some in the Pantheon that were actually alive that took Ristar by surprise. Mogo was one such sentient planet that Ristar explored and he greatly admired it not just for its scenery, but for actively playing a role in keeping the cosmos safe from danger. Unfortunately, Ristar would later learn of other planets that are much more malevolent than many of his past enemies, including a ravenous planet known as Remina that devours others of its kind, and Unicron, a colossal robot that can disguise himself as a planet and is regarded to be a major threat to the Pantheon as a whole. While Ristar is able to fight off a fair amount of enemies that are stronger than himself, going up against someone like Unicron could lead to a lot of trouble for the little star and a foe that he likely won’t survive against.
  • Being a living star, Ristar has met up with plenty of cosmic characters, both those who embody the galaxy in a literal sense and those who have traveled through space in many different adventures, oftentimes to protect the galaxy from an enemy of some sort. Palkia is described as an embodiment of space and given how important it and the other members of The Creation Trio are to keeping things stable, Ristar has done his part to protect the Pokemon from danger. Aurelion Sol was another cosmic entity dedicated to keeping the cosmos thriving and Ristar was given The Star Forger’s blessing for keeping the cosmos safe from danger in addition to being an actual star. As for those who have traveled across space, Ristar has befriended the Star Twinkle Precure, a team of magical girls with a cosmic theme and has helped them fight off extraterrestrial evil. Hikaru Hoshina found Ristar to be adorable (at times even believed he was an extraterrestrial star of some sort) and has unsuccessfully attempted to make him another mascot for her team.
  • Space pirates such as Greedy were already dangerous foes for Ristar to fight against, but there were other villains whose galactic ambitions exceed that of Ristar’s arch-nemesis. Destroyers such as King Ghidorah, The C’Tan, and the aforementioned Unicron unnerved Ristar greatly given how desolate many galaxies would be if entities like them are allowed to run free (especially The C’Tan considering how dangerous they are to stars like himself). Villains who have plans to take over the cosmos such as Thanos and Oryx were just as dangerous for Ristar and the fact that some of them are willing to reshape galaxies to their liking is something that infuriated Ristar. Such powerful foes cared little about what a star with limited combat capabilities thinks of them given the wide power gap between them and him, but Ristar remains determined with the help of his allies to ensure such villains won’t succeed in their goals.
  • Kirby was one notable entity associated with traveling through the stars that Ristar has managed to strike up a good friendship with. Like the little star, Kirby has traversed many different worlds, sometimes across different planets to put an end to whatever threat is going on at the moment, with some of these being world-ending monstrosities. The puffball is willing to hang out with Ristar often and the two have shared snacks with each other during those occasions. It was through Kirby that Ristar learned of one particular group of enemies that Kirby fought who posed a great danger to many planets. The Dark Matter Horde is an ensemble that covers any worlds around them in darkness and corrupts anyone in their way, something that Ristar saw as similar to Greedy’s conquest, but something much worse in terms of scale and power.
  • Ristar’s main method of attacking is to grab enemies with his flexible arms and bash them with his face. Bonk, a caveman known for headbutting his enemies, took note of Ristar’s method of headbutting mooks and while he didn’t have the same kind of flexible arms that Ristar had, it was something he enjoyed regardless. As for those with stretchy arms, Ristar witnessed some with that power in the Pantheon and noticed not only how much stretchier they are than himself, but that they have used their stretchy bodies in creative ways that Ristar has never done before. With characters such as Mr. Fantastic, Plastic Man, and Monkey D. Luffy being renowned for using their flexible abilities to the fullest, Ristar is eager to follow in their footsteps even if he isn’t able to have the same kinds of capabilities the three have at hand.
  • One of the more unusual activities that Ristar has done besides traversing different planets was being the flagbearer for races being held by Sonic and other Sega characters. Such a role was originally held by NiGHTS before the latter opted to directly participate in said races. Besides the fact that the wide scope of the Pantheon meant that it was possible for races to be held in outer space spanning a planet or two (which would mean that Ristar can’t be the flagbearer for such races all the time even if the Pantheon overall is having a calm day), Ristar was interested in the dream worlds that NiGHTS explores and the cosmos were additionally of equal intrigue for NiGHTS. While the many dream worlds are likely to be more surreal than some of the strangest planets that Ristar has explored, NiGHTS is willing to help Ristar navigate those unusual dreamscapes.

  • Avoids: The Lanius
  • These telepathic Slugs were shunned in the Galactic Federation for their constant thievery and attempts at manipulation.
  • Deceit, theft, trickery, all words no strange to a lowly scoundrel and other such types of scum. For every honest character out there in the universe, you have one who will stop at nothing to lie, cheat, and steal their way to the road of personal happiness. In the case of the nebulae dwelling Slugs, it is a way of life. Time and currency are always spent in the pursuit of pleasure and leisure, even if it comes at the cost of the happiness of others. Gifted with the ability of telepathy to see past the nebulae of their homeworlds the Slugs have turned this power into perhaps their greatest asset. Their race is shunned and seldom seen as a result but hasn’t stopped them from continuing their ways.
  • For a few months long strings of theft in open space were being investigated by the House of Law and Justice. Members of the Engi soon took interest in these cases and weighed their opinion on the handiwork being the work of the Slugs, being all too familiar with their tactics and recognizing that some of the crimes they committed could not have been possible without their powers. With their help, Captain Commando and his team were finally able to track down the perpetrators’ whereabouts in a nebula not too far from the Pantheon. With the knowledge that nebula clouds were pretty much the Slugs’ element they jumped through the sector with caution until finally they had caught up with the reputable Slug gang hiding out in an abandoned space station. Despite the group’s methodical discretion the Slugs’ telepathy was able to detect them first and were able to get the jump on them. A fight ensued but despite the sudden disadvantage they were able to defeat the criminals in the end. Despite the loss, the Slugs were able to get the last laugh in the end. To make their business in the Pantheon easier some of the Slugs had the idea of “convincing” the Court of Gods to ascend their entire race and it eventually went through around a week after the incident.
  • Befitting their hedonistic nature many Slugs have taken to piracy and their ships are of one of the many types seen bearing the signature purple stripes. Many of the ones that don’t still find their business with them one way or another, usually through illegal trade or information. For this reason, many Slugs have formed quite the number of agreements with the likes of Jabba the Hutt, Ridley, and the Eliksni at some point or another. Against the likes of the Space Sheriffs and Team Lightyear breathing down their necks they find alliances to be beneficial. To further deal with them the Slugs have also hired mercenaries such as Psy-Crow and Felix, though the Slugs aren’t ignorant to the latter's own treachery.
  • If they’re not hiding out in interstellar clouds then they’re probably out in the House of Crime and Transgressions due to its authorities being solely the Pantheon’s own underworld, though they still prefer to be in their own element. The Slugs are quite interested in acquiring items foriegn to the universe they hail from, if only to keep furthering their indulgent lifestyle. Some deities have found a better life within the Pantheon’s many halls, so why shouldn’t they? Their home universe follows a war spanning a galaxy, after all.
  • Slug telepathy has many applicable uses. From direct communication to the mind, scanning for life, and assessing mental states, to outright mind control, immunity to it, and waging psychic battles with beings possessing similar abilities. It’s even potent enough to surpass the capabilities of most sensors when inside a nebula and for that reason many if not all of their ships do not have such systems installed. Of course, it becomes a hindrance outside of such Space Clouds but given the other reasons they don’t stray from the nebula’s protection it doesn’t usually come as a problem.
  • A recurring tactic of theirs is resorting to hacking to sabotage key systems ranging from the one that controls doors to the ones that pumps in oxygen. Pretty underhanded, but considering this regards the Slugs it is par for the course. One time a group of Slugs upgraded their Hacking system and decided to test it on a space station out in the middle of nowhere. The bug hit the room that controlled the lights and for a few moments the entire building was consumed in darkness. Following an hour after they came back on the Slugs saw a red bean-shaped being get tossed out the airlock and into the emptiness of space. Turns out the Crewmates were in that particular station and mistook the lights getting cut out as the work of the Imposter leading to their decision to single out that one person from their group. By sheer coincidence, they were correct.
  • They get their name from being large, human-sized slugs. A shocker, we know. They’re not slow, but they certainly are slimy (in more ways than one, in this case). On top of sticking to one’s clothes for weeks, they can also apparently patch up hull breaches and for that reason it’s standard for ships to exude them. The vain race known as the VUX are described as a cross between “a green octopus and a banana slug”, among other unpleasant and hideous features. This apparently was what allowed the VUX to be willing to work with their kind, if only for the fact that they somewhat tolerate them more than anyone else. For the Slugs, they only see working them as a means to an end and are largely neutral with humans, viewing them as just one of many sets of aliens to cheat out of their valuables.
  • Ever since a group of Engi and Lanius tipped off Star Fox of their existence the mercenary team has since been a great thorn to their operations outside of their home turfs. While the Slugs don’t stack up to the greater enemies they’ve faced over the years they’re still careful not to underestimate them or their cunning. They’ve learned this well when a Slug Assault ship not only hacked the engines of Peppy’s Arwing but also teleported a Stun Bomb on Slippy’s Arwing, simultaneously taking both out of the engagement though the assailants were eventually taken down.
  • Beam weaponry on spacecraft isn’t unheard of, but some of the Slugs can take the credit for the creation of Anti-Bio Beams. While they’re incapable of actually damaging the hull, its true purpose comes in the form of directly killing the target ship’s crew. An insidious weapon to be sure, and a good example of the Slug’s pragmatism though thankfully they’re scarcely seen or even used. The Dominators have reminded many of the Slugs of such beam weaponry if it was built to be used by people. Through mingling with some of the Pantheon’s criminal elements some Slugs have acquired modified Dominators of their own to better defend against the Pantheon’s more dangerous combatants.
  • The Peregrine Falcons and The Sparrows Team are no strangers to fighting extraterrestrial forces, and the Slugs are no different. While they’re no invading force, but the lengths in which makes them a danger regardless. At one point, the teams decided to utilize their Super Vehicles, which are also called Slugs, against them in one operation. They’re not fond of them because of that on top of the fact that none of those things look anything like them. Some of them are even separate living beings, even. On the other hand, they’re also interested in acquiring such vehicles of their own either through stealing and/or reverse-engineering them.
  • Infamous as they are, not all of them are bad. The chances are rare, there’s no refuting that, but never zero. For example, there are some Slugs who have taken up assisting the Federation regardless and help man their ships. As a stark contrast to their untrustworthiness, these Slugs are both dependable and won’t double-cross their comrades. And it’s not limited to just them. One time, a rather large Slug teleported in the center of a town run by Set and Marcus. Their presence alarmed the townsfolk but before they could draw their weapons the Slug spread his wares on the ground. Turns out, he just wanted to trade. He drove some hard bargains, but they were indeed worth their price tags and the merchant was otherwise true to his word.

    Star Twinkle Pretty Cures 
The Star Twinkle Pretty Cures, members, Goddesses of Cosmic Motifs (Hikaru: Cure Star; Lala: Cure Milky; Elena: Cure Soleil; Madoka: Cure Selene; Yuni: Cure Cosmo, Mao, Blue Cat, Bakenyan)
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/cures.jpg Going clockwise: Cure Milky, Cure Selene, Fuwa, Cure Soleil, Prunce, Cure Cosmo and Cure Star.
  • Lesser Goddesses (Intermediate in Twinkle Form)
  • Symbol: Their pens
  • Theme Song: Sparkle☆彡Star☆Twinkle PreCure
  • Alignment: Neutral Good (Yuni is Chaotic Good)
  • Portfolio: Cosmic Motifs
  • Domains: Space, Zodiac, Pens, Imagination
  • Herald: Fuwa, AI, Prunce
  • Allies: All other Pretty Cures in the Pantheon, all good aligned Star Wars, Star Trek, Mass Effect, and Sailor Moon deities, The Bronze Saints, Team Lightyear, the Lumas, Rosalina, the Wisps, Kirby, the Formics, Poland
  • Enemies: Emperor Sheev Palpatine, Black Doom, The Martians, the Harvester, the Daleks, Amon, Babidi, Star Dream, Frieza, King Cold, Sinistar,The Ginyu Force
  • The Star Twinkle Pretty Cure team was assembled after twelve magic pens containing the spirits of twelve Zodiac themed princesses were scattered around their universe. The team traveled from planet to planet, collecting the pens and unlocking their "Twinkle Imagination" afterwards. Finally, they defended the princesses from the group known as the Knotraiders and their leader, Darknest, who turned out to be a 13th princess. Though their mascot Fuwa was lost in the fight, the Cures gave up their powers to resurrect him.
  • Continuing their efforts to try to get as many of their fellow Cures into the Pantheon as possible, Nagisa and Honoka, discovered the Star Twinkle Cures with help from other Cure teams. After reuniting Yuni and Lala, two aliens in the group, with the humans Hikaru, Elena, and Madoka, and with approval from the Court, a ritual was performed by Merlin, Dr. Strange, and Dr. Fate, restoring their powers on the condition that they still be unusable in their own universe. With their powers restored and their team reunited, the Star Twinkle Team took the spot of Cosmic Motifs in the Pantheon. The team was also added to the roster of the Sisterhood at the request of the other Cures.
  • The team naturally made allies with other sci-fi genre heroes who fought for the safety of their universe, as well as the Saints on account that they also have Zodiac motifs and the Sailor Senshi for their planetary motif. Meanwhile, galactic tyrants like Palpatine and Frieza have them on high alert on account that they could potentially do huge damage to their armies. And the Ginyu Force have a particular grudge against them because they think they’re copying their style.
  • The group finds Poland to be very confusing, as he has frequently requested to be allowed to travel into space with them. They have turned him down every single time, but he just won’t take no for an answer.
  • Exclusive to Hikaru:
    • Hikaru is the leader of this group of cures- which you can tell because she’s the one who wears pink. After being summoning Fuwa visited by Lala, she joined her on her quest to save the universe from the Knotraiders.
    • Being a lover of the extraterrestrial, Hikaru makes frequent visits to the House of Extraterrestrials to the the aliens residing there. She was not disappointed in seeing the large viarety of aliens dwelling there, and became acquainted with the benevolent and friendly aliens there after gushing about them for a few minutes. However, she knows to avoid the more malicious and dangerous members of the House for her own safety.
  • Exclusive to Lala:
    • Lala hails from the planet Samaan, which is heavily reliant upon technology and AI, and is the one who started the affair by traveling in a rocket to Earth.
    • Lala found common ground with E.T. after learning that he befriended a human like she did, and can often be found helping him with his botany studies. She also became good friends with Mikuru, who also comes from a society dependent upon technology, and having come to the present where no such technology exists, is very, very clumsy.
  • Exclusive to Elena:
    • The first Pretty Cure to our knowledge who is also Hispanic, Elena comes from a large family and runs a flower shop.
    • Occasionally, Elena visits the House of Trees and Flowers to collect new flowers to sell. She was amazed to see the large variety of flowers growing there, so she enjoys examining the place and finding flowers that she has never seen before. Of the House, she enjoys being with Aki Izayoi, Lilligant, Treebeard, Shaymin, and Wirt and Greg, with her enjoying examining the more plant-based deities there. She avoids the more malicious deities of the house like Flowey, Exdeath, Durathor, and Cagney Carnation, as they are quick to attack.
  • Exclusive to Madoka:
    • Madoka is a rather accomplished girl who holds titles in both archery and piano. She also was the school council president at the school that Hikaru and Elena attended, until she lost that title to Hikaru in an election.
    • Madoka gets along well with fellow council Presidents Makoto Nijima (when she isn’t being a Phantom Thief) and Hinagiku Katsura and often advises them on what to do next. She can relate to Makoto for being stressed out by their duties as a council president and admits to feeling a bit jealous that Hinagiku lacks much of the stress and angst that plague her.
    • Madoka is very skilled in many aspects like archery, piano, flower arrangements, and tea ceremonies as well as getting perfect grades. Unfortunately, this causes her to get very stressed out, making her wish she wasn't so talented. She managed to find out that Cordelia and Izuru Kamukura suffered similar problems as her, with Cordelia not thinking her skills as anything special, disliking being called a genius as it reminds her of her fallen comrades, while Izuru became bored with everything as a result of becoming talented at everything. She feels relived that others can relate to her struggles, and occasionally holds groups with them about their struggles.
    • Despite the fact that she is also an archer and a magical girl, she should not be confused with her superior Madoka Kaname. She and the similarly named pink-haired girl get along fine, with the purple Madoka pitying her a little for seeing and experiencing so much traumatic moments in her lifetime. She's a bit nervous at the prospect of meeting Homura Akemi sometime in the future, knowing their similar names will cause a reaction in Homura.
  • Exclusive to Yuni:
    • Yuni’s tale is one of tragedy. Her race, a group of shapeshifters whose true form was of cat people, suffered from racism and traveled to a place called Planet Rainbow to avoid further ostracism. However, their peace was short lived. During their search for the pens, the Knotraider commander Aiwarn visited the planet. After Yuni’s race refused to give her information about the pens, she turned the entire population to stone. Yuni was able to escape in a rocket and took many roles after, including a pop singer named Mao, a Phantom Thief named Blue Cat, and even a mole in the Knotraiders known as Bakenyan. Eventually, during a trip to Planet Rainbow, Yuni’s identity was discovered, and after a fight, she would join the Cures as Cure Cosmo.
    • Being a Phantom Thief by nature, Yuni has been willing to help the Phantom Thieves by providing them intel on potential targets, as she has proven unwilling to travel to the Shadow World. She is more active, however, when helping Sly Cooper and his gang, as she feels at ease with other humanoid animals. On occasions, she even helps Kaito Kid in his heists as well as performing magic acts.
    • She gets along very well with fellow magical girl Ichigo Momomiya, even though she’s a human who was injected with cat DNA and not a full cat. She also likes Len for similar reasons, noting that she’s also very potent with magic.
  • Can also be found in Complex Symbolism.

    Pinbacker 
Pinbacker, God of Space Madness
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Pinbacker_8740.jpg
  • Demigod
  • Symbol: The blinding light of the sun
  • Alignment: Chaotic Evil
  • Portfolio: Man Is Dust In The Eye Of God And It Is Their Time To Die, Light Is Not Good, Space Madness, Satanic Allusions, Ax-Crazy, The Fatalist Burned From Head To Toe But Still Tough, Religious Bruiser, The Best Hope Mankind Had, Spanner in the Works
  • Domains: The Sun, Madness, Light, Dust, Space
  • High Priest: Doctor Weir
  • Followers: The children on Ryvius, Rock Hound, Saren Arterius
  • Allies: The Grand United Alliance of Destruction, The Lich, YHVH, Seymour Guado, Nekron, Kefka, Zs'skayr, The Night's King
  • Enemies: Saint Walker, Ra, Clark Kent (and any other Kryptonian), John Connor, Amaterasu, Volcarona (really, anyone related to the sun), The SCP Foundation, Lucifer, Titus and anyone who tries to save the world.
  • Opposed by: God (God, the Devil and Bob)
  • In the near-future, the sun was dying. Earth would send a team of scientists on-board "The Icarus" to give it new life, and when that failed a second Icarus was sent. That crew would come close to failure upon learning just why the first failed; Captain Pinbacker. Driven insane by his time in space, he would sabotage the mission and come close to preventing them from saving the world. Seemingly incinerated in the sun, to the horror of many an astronaut he found himself ascended to the Trope Pantheon.
    • Being bathed in light, it was difficult to get a good image of Pinbacker. This recording was the best found.
  • Initially sent to save the world, spending so much time near the sun seems to have driven him mad, along with given him third degree burns. He believes that God himself has decided humanity's time is up and intends to fulfill this "holy mission" by sabotaging any attempt to save the world. It makes him an easy pawn for YHVH to manipulate, as does Nekron whom Pinbacker believes is "the angel of death helping me out".
  • God refuses to associate with him due to his desire to end the world in His name. Pinbacker assumes said God is a demon trying to tempt him away from "what needs to be done".
  • Sees himself as an angel of light, having an odd reverence to the sun yet wishing its death. Naturally, he's an enemy against every single solar deity, with special contempt towards Volcarona due to her ability to function as a second sun. Of all solar deities, Ra hates him the most; he's spent eternity trying to prevent the end of the world, so seeing the sun drive him to omnicidal mania revolts him.
  • The Night's King has shown some interest in Pinbacker, since his goals of snuffing out the sun could help align with his own objectives; bringing forth an eternal winter and an army of the death. Zs'skayr also finds the idea of taking sun like he plans useful. Both are cautious about it though, given he's pretty unstable.
  • It's not clear how he's Made of Iron when he's burned from head to toe. He sees it as further proof that God is on his side.
  • Has tried to spend time in the House of Religion and Faith, however very few can stand being around him. Saint Walker in particular is mortified at his delusional religion; he faced the end of his world from its dying sun, lost his family in the process, but sought to stop it and when it seemed inevitable didn't try to accelerate the apocalypse. Seymour Guado, however, agreed with him that everyone should die and be at peace.
  • With how he came about, the Lich is in Pinbacker's eyes a definitive sign that the end is nigh. The Lich likes the help, but believes that he's "under-selling" by just trying to kill the Sun. Hopes to sail with him to a billion worlds, until all light is extinguished.
  • Somewhat of a Satanic Archetype; he's bathed in light, serves as an "Adversary" figure and in the same vein as YHVH's Satan is acting on "God's" behalf. He'll rip the throat out of anyone who says this in ear distance, claiming to be a holy man. None of the other Satans or Lucifers want to be compared with the lunatic either.
  • In his delusion, he believes that Superman and every other Kryptonian is a demon sent to prevent Revelations and humanity's ascent into Heaven. After all, they're powered by the sun so they must want to save it and defy God's will! Yeah, he's sort of loopy.
  • Opposes John Connor for trying to save the world over and over from SKYNET, who he believes is a sign of mankind's arrogance and destiny for self-destruction.
  • His voice is the same as Titus, which displeases him a lot. Pinbacker in turn took one look at the dying world of Holy Terra, and the galaxy of the 41st millennium, before declaring his antagonism to the Imperium of Mankind:
    Pinbacker: "Your "Holy Terra" is an abomination, as is your Imperium. A festering half-living cinder of an entire galaxy where the Devil is God. And yet you fight to protect mankind's worthless existence? I swear on the name of the one true God that I will kill the cancer that I once called home, and I won't stop until your fetid galaxy has found the one true peace it needs-the peace of the grave!
  • Agrees with Kefka on the futility of man, hope and ideals.
    Pinbacker: "I am Pinbacker, Commander of the Icarus One. We have abandoned our mission. Our star is dying. All our science. All our hopes, our... our dreams, are foolish! In the face of this, we are dust, nothing more. Unto this dust, we return. When he chooses for us to die, it is not our place to challenge God."

This was their only encounter until five years later when they stumbled across each other again in a high school club for Earth Sciencesnote . In the club, Mira met with other students with their own habits and goals; Mai "Into" Inose, Mikage "Sakura" Sakurai, and Mari "Monroe" Morino. Together, they hang out in a collection of events and experiences with the girls bonding with one another and appreciating their friendship, learning about Astronomy and Geology, and coming to terms with what they want to do in the future. After Mikage and Mari graduated and left the club, newcomers, Yuu "Nana" Nanami and Mikage's younger sister, Chikage "Chika" Sakurai, joined the group to provide their own introspection and passion for the club over time. And though their dreams and goals are still a long way to go, Mira and Ao have assured themselves and the club that they will continue on and value the time they have spent together as well as their experiences.
  • The girls were enjoying their time learning what interested them most in the Earth Sciences Club, and they've been keeping up with their vows of reaching their dreams at a later point in life. That said, Mira and Ao were stunned to individually discover an unusual sight; both glanced at a peculiar-looking planet that wasn't part of Earth's Solar System, though what they witnessed was different, with Mira seeing a giant planet with a green emblem in the center and Ao glancing upon what can only be described as a "baby planet" with a humanoid figure stood on top of it. The two girls bought this up in the club the following day. In a strange coincidence, Monroe came across a letter that was addressed to them, as well as Ino and Mikage, who were no longer members. It mentioned the night where Ao watched a tiny planet occupied by someone who went by "The Little Prince" while Mira had an encounter with a sentient planet known as Mogo. The information freaked the girls out, especially Mira and Ao, who were beyond disbelief that they saw a living planet and someone who lived in another planet respectively and they were too preoccupied for a moment to take notice that there was an additional paragraph, they were all chosen to represent a place called the Trope Pantheons. While the other girls were a bit hesitant, Mira wasted no time in accepting the invitation and was eager to drag along her friends. If the encounter she and Ao was a Foreshadowing of what was to come, then Mira wasn't wasting a chance, and she really wanted to explore the Pantheon as she was sure that something space-related was definitely involved. After some convincing, the other club members followed suit.
    • One deity that the girls developed a great deal of fascination for was Rosalina, a guardian entity for the cosmos who also served as a direct mother figure to kiddish, star-like beings known as Lumas. The idea of a cosmic motherly being was one thing, but for something as endearing as Lumas was something either girl wasn't willing to pass. Upon learning more about her, they greatly appreciated her commitment to her role as well as showing sympathy for what Rosalina went through as a child. Rosalina was glad to see a group of girls that liked her for being who she was both as an individual and for what she's meant to do and always have the club welcomed in her presence, in addition to her Lumas being willing to tag along and play with the girls with each visitation.
    • The girls all have had at least a moment where they partook in stargazing and reflected on their choices and their dreams. They were surprised to see that this was something they had in common with a few deities in the Pantheon, namely Hibiki Tachibana and Geo Stelar, though in their case, there were more despondent reasons for them stargazing, namely that Hibiki chose not to spend time watching shooting stars with a close friend, Miku Kohinata, in favor of becoming a Symphogear, though they eventually reconcile and have another moment like that later on. In Geo Stelar's case, stargazing was one of the only ways he had any comfort after his father's disappearance, though he was able to recover and become a more expressive person later on. Needless to say, Hibiki and Geo Stelar became well-acquainted with the club and expressed their support for one another, as well as a promise to stargaze together under the Pantheon's ever-expanding cosmos one night.
    • Much to the club's surprise, their reputation, and generally energetic nature caught the interest of a collective of aliens known as the Slylandro. At first, the girls were perplexed about why the Slylandro had a good deal of attention directed towards them until they learned later on that it's because they would really like to learn about space and the cosmos, much like some of the club members, but unfortunately, the fact that they've lived their entire lives in a planet that's enveloped by gas as well as being quite inept in technology has made this task extremely difficult for them. Rather than take pity, Mira chose to encourage her fellow members to meet, support, and teach the Slylandro about space, feeling that not only would this make a great opportunity for her and her fellow friends to teach someone about their interests, but to also help and befriend someone whose been having trouble in wanting to learn. Their gesture was greatly appreciated by the Slylandro and they've maintained a friendly relationship with one another, though the club was warned to be wary of the Slylandro Probes, whose faulty nature and design was designated to destroy, something which did unnerve the girls for a while, though it hasn't deterred their contact with the Slylandro one bit.
  • The girls tend to spend a lot of their time in the Pantheon either in the House of School as they're still school students who are studying their own interests or in Halls that neighbor their own and taking peeks and glances at the stars. Some of the members of the club, like Ino, Yuu, and Chika are more interested in the House of Locations and Settings, which, to them, feels a lot more natural as their main interest lies in Geography. The occasional splits in commuting to different parts of the Pantheon has resulted in long and tough rides and journeys for the girls, though they've slowly managed to get used to it and find different ways to enjoy their experience, be it either while traveling, at their preferred destination, or when the club is wholly together. If anything, the constant travels have helped the club to further their bonds with one another together as well as make the most out of the Pantheon, with Mira especially thinking that they're going to have a long, memorable, and wonderful experience in a new realm.
  • The Earth Sciences Club has become one of the more notable and recognizable school clubs in the Pantheon ever since the girls ascended to the new realm. They were amazed to see the other clubs that were established there and were very delighted to try getting along with them, with one of them being the Houkago Tea Time. Despite their vast difference in subject and field, with Houkago specializing in Music and Performing Arts, the two clubs got along very well, especially considering how Mira and Yui Hirasawa found similar quirks in each others' demeanor of being excitable, caring, and wanting the best outcome for their friends. Yui and her band were inspired by the other club's interest and conviction enough that they made a plan to write a song based on the Earth Sciences Club. Unfortunately for Houkago, it's going to take a lot of time, considering that they themselves have been quite busy in a lot of personal shenanigans and with most members trying to keep up with being college students. Mira and her fellow club members have been really supportive of Yui and her friends' interest and wished them luck, cementing a tight friendship between the two clubs.
  • While the club has differing interests, all of them, to some degree, have a great fascination with space and the stars. Many of them, especially Mira, Ao, and Monroe were delighted to see that they would be meeting some astronauts there and their excitement did not go unfulfilled. One such astronaut they met was John Crichton, whose one experience traveling in space led him into a wormhole that took him in an interstellar adventure involving aliens and galactic conflicts. Crichton easily got along with the girls and encouraged their dreams, especially for Mira and Ao, though he has stated that it's probably best not to get too involved with space and aliens, though the girls did admit that they found Crichton's adventures to be quite inspiring. They also admired Robert Capa for his attempts to revitalize the sun when it was dying but felt uneasy when Hank Henshaw became a subject of interest. While he was initially a decent astronaut, his fatal crash and injury caused by Doomsday, his recreation as the Cyborg-Superman, and his debilitating grasp on his sanity left him mad and deranged. The girls would have pitied him, but Henshaw choosing to pursue an Irrational Hatred over Superman over making amends have made the girls feel more apathetic towards him. Even so, they wished Henshaw went back to being a good-hearted astronaut and feel saddened about his current state as Hand has once admitted that he wants to permanently die as a way to just move on.
    • Among other astronauts, the girls were very keen on learning about the exploits of one Captain Olimar, who was sent to a future version of Earth and, during his days in researching and exploring the planet, came across hordes of small critters under the same species known as Pikmin. Developing a symbiotic relationship, Olimar and the Pikmin worked together to uncover any biological and historical information about Earth as well as finding scattered parts of Olimar's crashed ship in an effort to get it fixed. There was also Kaito Momota, who went by the moniker of "Ultimate Astronaut", though was kidnapped and suddenly drafted into a Killing Game hosted by Monokuma. He worked with fellow students, particularly Shuichi Saihara and Maki Harukawa to maintain their own optimism and hopes of surviving the game, despite his own terminal illness. Though Kaito died in his attempts, it was under his own terms and by being in space, A Good Way to Die in his perspective. The girls were fascinated by Olimar's experience as an astronaut and were eager to interact with the Pikmin, particularly Mira. Olimar was open to accepting their suggestion, affirming a good friendship between them. They were saddened to hear of Kaito's story, though he stated that the club shouldn't be feeling bad for him and instead chose to further encourage the girls to follow their passion. That, and he genuinely enjoys their company, even hanging out to help them out in any astronomical topics and activities that they wanted to invest their time in.
  • They were overjoyed to discover that not only were there far more planets than just those in the Milky Way or the distant ones that were discovered by contemporary scientists, but many of them were also teeming with life and even had a notable presence in the Pantheon. Of course, Mira and Ao were looking forward to learning more about Mogo and The Little Prince after their own respective encounters with them respectively and wanted to get their fellow club members to follow along with them. Mogo was… complicated, considering that he's not exactly social and the girls, especially Mira, were quite rambunctious to him. Though his fellow Green Lantern members had to tell the sentient planet that the girls were simply happy to see him and the nature of him being a sentient being didn't take away the fact that he was a heroic figure. That, and Mogo and the club were part of the same House, meaning the girls would be getting to see him most of their days in the Pantheon. The planet has resigned to simply being an object of fascination for the girls, though Mira has expressed a strong desire to visit Mogo, a prospect that he's not yet ready to allow. On the other hand, The Little Prince was more sociable and was open to visiting and befriending the girls directly. He was enamored by Mira's excitable nature as well as the club's supportive and friendly nature of sticking up with one another and their goals. The Prince's friendship with the girls was such that he would allow at least allow space travel around the Pantheon with his home planet for one girl at a time. Since then, it's helped with both sides being enriched by a sense of social presence and activity being involved.
    • While the club generally admires whatever sentient stars and planets that they come across in the Pantheon, the same cannot be said for a few exceptions, such as the Transformer known as Unicron and a sentient meteor known as The Sleeper. They were unnerved to learn about the destructive capabilities that the two possessed, more so with the fact that Unicron has destroyed multiple planets just to sate himself figuratively and literally, and made multiple attempts on Earth. As for The Sleeper, they were surprised to learn that it happened to house a monster, but beyond that, the fact that it turns anyone it makes contact with upon a closer reach into crystals isn't helping matters. At the very least, Ao is glad she isn't getting her name penned for a monster-possessing meteor. That said, this hasn't stopped the club from creating a sculpt of Unicron's planet form alongside multiple Transformers, usually Autobots and adjusting them for display. It's admittedly made a cool look for visitors and some of the Autobots even expressed some respect for the girls in that aspect.
  • While members like Mira, Ao, and Monroe put on a heavy emphasis on astronomy and anything involving planets and stars, other members like Ino, Yuu, and Chika have a stronger interest in the Geography side of the Earth Sciences Club, with Ino wanting to devote her interests into cartography, Yuu being invested in studying about weathers and climates, and Chika focusing on the topic of Geomancy and, by extension, gemstones, believing that the latter have a latent sort of power and charm held onto them. Because of this, they end up taking trips to the Houses of Locations and Settings and Nature where they feel that they could have their own wondrous sense of adventure like Mira, Ao, and Monroe do whenever they're traveling in the House of Time and Space. With each visit, they are happy to see that they progressively learn and experience something new, such as when Ino and Chika entered the Hall of Earth and Rock and saw that they played an important role in maintaining a large part of the Pantheon's ground surface as well as as the neighborhooding Hall of Metal and Minerals keeping a degree of control over a mountain's worth of mining facilities that house a seemingly-limitless number of gemstones. They've been more eager to be paying more visits, though they're aware that it could get quite exhausting to a certain point.
    • With an interest in fortune, Chika was interested in meeting with those who either have a similar interest in or represent fortune as she does in a former sense. This led her to Rose and Menat, two fortune tellers who displayed a strong passion in their work occupation as well as being formidable fighters who've had to deal with the machinations of Shadaloo, led by Master Bison. For once, Rose and Menat appreciated Chika for liking them for their preferred craft as well as appreciating their personal interest, with them also introducing Chika to the House of Luck and Fortune. There, Chika quickly became well-acquainted with Madame Xanadu and was interested to learn about how she came to become an influential figure in fortune-telling in general. As a sign of gratitude, Chika would present the three a gemstone she found in the Hall of Earth and Rock, both as a sign of gratitude and as a way to show that they're friends, which they accepted. Menat, Rose, and Xanadu have reflected on Chika's future and while this information is disclosed, they muse that it was to be a bright one for her.
  • Compared to most of the other members of the club, Yuu has the most distinctive interests, that being on meteorology, which technically still counts as a Geography topic as the weather and climate are synonymous and vital elements to the structure of Planet Earth. Predictably, she takes visits to the Hall of Weather, hoping that she can learn and research more about weather patterns as well as understand the effects, benefits, and dangers of weather and climate change. Her motivation behind this is that her aunt had to endure a heavy rainstorm during a flood. While she was unharmed, her house was damaged, and along with it, several family heirlooms were also damaged and/or lost, which deeply upset her. It affected Yuu to the extent where she vowed to never let something like this happen again and thus, took to wanting to read and study meteorology as an academic course and professional job later down in the future. She was stunned to learn that there are many deities who are capable of controlling the weather into acting how they want it to occur, and though it does seem fascinating, Yuu also expresses some concern on how they have the capability to destroy a lot provided they end up using their weather manipulating powers chaotically or under malicious intent. Regardless, it hasn't stopped Yuu from remaining committed and dedicated to her studies on meteorology, something which has left her fellow club members and new friends to be impressed by her.
    • One day in the Hall of Weather, Yuu came across a peculiar creature who looked similar to a Teru-Teru Bōzu and, given their affiliation with weathers, she expressed an interest in learning more about it. It wasn't too long before Yuu realized that she came across the Weather Pokémon known as Castform. Things started to become more interesting whenever Yuu encountered Castform in a particular day, which took on an appearance resembling a sun, raindrop, or icicle depending on the weather. With some caution and advice from her fellow club members, Yuu took to approaching the Castform patiently and feeding it a sweet. Castform eventually came to like what Yuu have given him and appreciated her gesture. Later on, she realized that the Pokémon had been following her ever since. Seeing that he wanted a friend and companion to be alongside, Yuu, with some encouragement from the other club members, decided to accept it and allow Castform to tag along with her, establishing a firm partnership. Since then, Yuu and Castform have been working together in some of the club activities and is eager to understand the Pokémon's biology on how does the weather cause it to change forms, alongside the fact that Castform is also willing to defend its partner from whatever he deems a threat to them.
      • On a further note, it seems that Yuu was formally introduced to the idea and concept of Pokémon thanks to Castform. She did some research regarding them, and three of them really caught her interest; The Weather Trio. She was quite invested in the legends surrounding Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza and wondered if their presence has anything to do with the climate in the Pantheon, given their reputation and position as revered Legendary Pokémon. From there, she also learned about Maxie and Archie and quickly came to dislike them as Yuu believed that their plans of trying to use Groudon and Kyogre in an effort to expand the landmass or the oceans would have ruined everyone's lives in some way or another and doesn't like to think about them too much. The two have admitted to being ashamed of their actions and seek to make amends, but Yuu states that it's going to take more than that to make up for their actions in leading Team Magma and Team Aqua.
  • The girls have a strong following in the House of Friendship and Camaraderie, which was a given as they had developed a deep attachment and bond with one another and were willing to go on multiple trips and document their memories with one another at any given point. This is especially apparent for Mira and Ao, who constantly prove themselves to be the best performers in this aspect, though the other girls have proven to be just as close and affectionate for one another. They'll make an attempt to promote and, if lucky enough, even teach Astronomy and Geography to the House of Friendship and Camaraderie as they've come to realize that teaching others is not just another way to make new friends and moments, but it also helps them to further memorize information, which they believe would greatly benefit their future.
    • On another note, the club has a constant theme of hopes and promises, with each individual girl holding onto a dream that they wish to achieve in the future at some point, such as wanting to become astronomers to pursue a job based on a geographical field. Mikage is the noteworthy exception in this case and she tends to feel anxious and uneasy about this though. This thought would lead her to the Cutie Mark Crusaders, who also underwent a similar circumstance during their youthful days and understood where Mikage was coming from. Initially a bit weirded out by a trio of talking ponies, Mikage soon warmed up to them and had a bit of a conversation with them regarding their troubles of wanting to come up with something they wanted to do in the future. Though this hasn't stopped the Crusaders from remaining cheerful and optimistic for Mikage, telling her that she will find a dream to pursue one day, which really made her happy and content at one point, and is starting to consider different opportunities for what she wants to do in the future. Since then, she and the Crusaders have maintained contact as good friends.
  • During their spare time, Mira and Ao often take their time to do some part-time work as maids for a bakery, which they did in their homeworld as a means to build up profit for their club as well as giving them a justification of hanging out together as well as working as a pair. They still take up bakery shifts in the House of Food and they're delighted to see the number of customers they have to tend to. One of their more famous clients also happens to be residents in that particular House, a quintet that also serves as maids in a tea-centered restaurant, with each of the girls having a name that rhymed with an edible hot drink. Mira and Ao quickly found themselves finding a lot of common ground with Hoto Cocoa and Kafuu Chino when it came to their personalities, attitude, and general appearance, and while that generally led to them becoming friends, Mira and Ao was also interested in trying out the hot drinks that Cocoa, Chino, and their friends served. Thankfully, it paid off, as Mira and Ao enjoyed the hot beverages and invited their other club members to give it a try. Since then, Cocoa, Chino, and their fellow maids have been putting up a lot of support for the club's endeavors as well as hanging out with Mira and Ao during their bakery shifts.
  • When making plans and trips, one of Mira's favorite places to visit is the House of Childhood and Adolescence. She cites this because she has a natural affinity to children in general and many, in turn, are quite enthusiastic about wanting to learn about space and cosmos. On another note, it also helps that there are others within a similar age range to Mira and her friends in that House, which makes getting adjusted there quite easy. That said, her over-excitable nature has been proven to annoy some kids and teens, which has prompted the more serious members like Ao and Mikage to either rein her in for some time or take her place in interacting with kids and teens at times, and though Mikage has some difficulties due to her blunt nature, her friendship with the Cutie Mark Crusaders has benefitted in Mikage getting to be accustomed and generally open towards kids. The House has since generally appreciated the girls' presence and influence for the kids and is more than welcome to invite them, especially Mira and Ao as guests of honor when it comes to the field of education and social enrichment.

  • In the mid 21st century, the Sun was dying. The first Icarus mission failed, and there was only one hope left. Robert Capa was one of the eight astronauts sent on the Icarus II to re-ignite the Sun. The tense and dangerous nature of the mission would force him to step up as the leader, making tough decisions to save humanity. Though it would come at the cost of his and the crew's life, he saw first-hand the rebirth of the Sun.
  • Has a fascination with the light and brilliance of the Sun, lowering the filters to see more of its splendor even when it comes close to blinding him. This is a contrast with Pinbacker, who's experience with the Sun brought him to madness and the belief God wants the world to end. God from God, The Devil and Bob sides with Capa, and is proud he managed to perform Solar CPR and save the world.
  • The loneliness of space and the sheer power of the star that the Earth revolves around is something that can lead to madness, which combined with the stress of the mission was something Capa had to be careful of. He pities Ren Hoek for being consumed by space madness on a years-long mission, only having Stimpy as a companion. While he can't Though there's nothing good he can say about Pinbacker, he does try to comfort Ren due to being on the knife's edge himself.
  • Because of him saving the Sun, Apophis seems him as a pest and plans to kill him, then de-ignite the Sun. Capa's naturally terrified at the monster, and the more superstitious side of him worries that Apophis may have been responsible for the Sun's dimming. Ra managed to rescue him, and has told the scientist that he's always welcome to his temple due to his actions in life. As a goddess of the Sun, Amaterasu totally agrees.
  • Zs'skayr opposes him due to his desire to cover the Earth in darkness, in hopes of being unopposed due to his weakness to light. Nightmare Moon also opposes him due to her desire for The Night That Never Ends, as do the GUAD due to him saving the world.
  • Not the only god to save the sun. During the Final Night, Hal Jordan as Parallax sacrificed himself to re-ignite his version of the Sun. Bro'dee Walker is capable of renewing stars with the Blue Lantern ring using the hope of the planet's population. Capa is really interested in this.
  • He had some interesting reactions with Captain America and Johnny Storm. Both of them remind him of Mace since they look just like him. He gets along with the Fantastic Four in general as he's also a Science Hero, and an astronaut. Sometimes gets weird looks from the Inception Crew since he reminds them of Robert Michael Fischer Jr.
