Welcome to the Trope Pantheons thread! Please read the rules:
- When writing a profile, take note of the following:
- Gods cannot be followers or high priests for obvious reasons. The 'gods' have ascended meaning there is no need for said character to be a follower of another if they have ascended.
- No hype profiles, please. 'Hype Profiles' are profiles that have been made out of ongoing events and have not been around for a long time. This creates 'hype' due to popularity and certain elements either through certain scenes, memes, dramatic acting or considered overly awesome. They are not bad tropes but building a portfolio solely for that is a bad idea, as they do not say a thing about representing the trope best (unless it's those trope concepts that they are trying to embody for a long time)
- You can see one if the profile is only showing off how awesome they are or suddenly pushing how 'significant' they are thanks to the just very recent events rather than respecting the longstanding good representations of the trope. And usually having... minimum portfolio or flavor texts and being a bit too generalized or self-contained to events from within their home series instead of interacting with other Pantheon members.
- When posting in the forum, take note of the following:
- When you suggest a God, please explain why they fit the trope. Not everyone is going to understand just "X should be the God of Y because they exemplify the trope" off the bat, especially if they're unfamiliar with the work.
- You must use the Trope Pantheons discussion thread in the forums if you wish to add a new deity, story, something else of importance to the Trope Pantheon canon, or reworking an existing deity (be it simply improving their existing profile or changing their title).
- For new and reworked deities, 3 means the profile will have a one week waiting period.
- For new and reworked deities, 4 is a 3 day waiting period.
- 5 is an automatic ascension for new and reworked deities.
- Speaking of reworks, for anyone that wants to improve such profiles, they have to review the current trope the character(s) has and see if it still holds up or if there is a better rep for their trope.
- For adding new Treasures to The Great Treasury or new Dominions to the Dominions, the following rules apply:
- For new Treasures or Dominions, 3 is a 3 day waiting period.
- 4 is an automatic addition to the Great Treasury or Dominions.
- Do not repost a profile in the forums more than twice in a day if noticeable changes have not been made in between. If a profile is posted a third time in a row without noticeable alterations, it will be downvoted. This is so spamming of no-effort profiles is less frequent and to prevent tropers from getting aggravated seeing the same profile over and over. The minimum acceptable change has to be a single flavour text.
- The Pantheon is not a mouthpiece for you to voice your opinions on certain characters. You may like certain characters more than others, but do not make the mistake of making profiles for characters you like look like Character Shilling.
- Tropers new to the Pantheon are barred from approving or downvoting profiles until they have ascended at least two profiles.
- Do not include fan reception in any profiles. It has nothing to do with the character themselves and will create unnecessary conflict.
- Write a detailed explanation on why the character is the best candidate for deity of that trope. If people disagree with you, do not force it on the people.
- Keep in mind that if you still want to try to find a trope for a particular character, you are only given three chances to find a particular trope for them. If a suggestion goes past three possible tropes, then it will come off as shoehorning a character into the Pantheon just for the sake of that character to be there.
- On a related note, even if a character does have a free trope being suggested, there is still a limit of three attempts for suggesting that character for that trope. If no one responds to that certain proposal after being posted three times, then it will get to the point where the idea will be seen as being shoehorned into the Pantheon. In addition, the idea needs to be considered acceptable and approved because they are good, not for the sake of pitying others because no one is responding to their idea.
- When posting Pantheon related stuff to the wiki, take note of the following:
- Do not put a link to these Pantheon pages into the main wiki page. The moment you want to add in a main Characters page that the character is a God of this trope, do not do it. If you see leftovers of this practice, inform the forum and use the cutlist. This also goes to the Trivia page. The only exception to this rule is if a page in the Pantheon could be confused for a page in Main, like Good Colors, Evil Colors and Good and Evil Colors.
- Rule of Cautious Editing Judgment ALSO applies here. Do not bring things that would incite fights, even if it is what is currently the hot topic and might be 'urgent'. For example, the political scene and some really bad politicians. We are not here to fight at each other, so don't suggest things that go to that direction, this is a fictional Pantheon after all.
- To add a Pantheon page for a certain work, 4 or more characters coming from the same series/franchise should be ascended before adding the page. For Creator specific pages, 4 deities coming from the same creator and 2 individual work pages coming from the same creator is the minimum to warrant a page.
- Do not create a trope page for a story until the story is fully completed.
- Preparing to write:
- First thing to do before present a profile is to go to the Trope Pantheons discussion thread. In the forums, you must discuss with other users on adding ideas and seek their approval with sound reasoning. You can also get some assistance in the forum thread by either asking for help and those interested asking if they can help. Submissions that are added without discussion are likely to be deleted and those who violate those rules by adding Pantheon content without discussion will get reported to the mods.
- If you feel the need to remove a character for some reason (poor quality, outdated titles, etcetera) and replace him/her with another or outright rework, please see what the other tropers think about this in the discussion thread before doing anything hasty. Use good reasoning to see if your idea can easily replace the character present without drawing out your statement or giving too ambiguous claims most do not understand.
- Please be sure to consult others in the discussion about what you want to work before making the profile. This is done to see if your proposal is the best representative and so, in case your profile is turned down, you do not waste time writing something that others might not find suitable.
- In the same vein, if you adopt a profile from another troper, it is recommended that you make an announcement that you have done so on the discussion thread. More often than not, a trope that was reserved for something was given away to someone else. Check the Related tab on the top of a page to see if a trope or character has been reserved by a user.
- If, for whatever reason, you are writing about a God who just happens to be a person in real life, just try to be very careful about what you decide to say. Do not try to make the editing seem too meta (self-referential) and use the aformentioned creativity to create hypothetical scenarios towards fictional characters.
- When writing a profile for a character, here are a few things to note:
- All deities should be sorted by their divine ranking. Put Overdeities on the top of the page and Quasideities on the bottom. Also be sure to add them in alphabetical order by their first/given name (can be reversed if it is Eastern ordered). For a group, if there is no official name for them all list down all their names by order of relevance or (if too long to list) title them as Insert Name Here Main Characters or some other identifiable title along the same lines.
- The maximum number of tropes that a god can have is two, but do not try to abuse that fact. If you need to use a second trope to specify a certain thing about their position, that can be excused either because said character represents their trope choice very well alongside the first trope. It is still generally encouraged to only have one trope.
- A trope can only belong to one profile at a time. The only time two profiles can share a trope is if there are explicit variations listed in the trope page proper (e.g. Muscle Angst is held by both Biscuit Krueger and Chihiro Fujisaki as the former represents "Too Much Muscle" and the latter represents "Not Enough Muscle")
- If the character you are about to add to a House already exists in another, make sure to mention that this person has spots in other House as well. Up to 2 places can be made for a deity, with the sole exceptions being those at the Main House to highlight those characters’ importance to the Pantheon’s lore.
- For a character's theme song, try to avoid calling it "Theme of God X" or "Theme of (Show where God X originates from)". If possible, try to find out if the song has an actual name through research. Most importantly, it has to be part their series’ official soundtracks from media. Do not list songs that are made by fans or outside sources. If they were not specifically used as music for that specific character, then they do not count. Furthermore, it has to be a general theme specifically made for that characters’ appearances, not some generic music that plays for many other instances not related to the character in question.
- For images, when adding an image for your chosen character, it is highly recommended to use a stylized image that embodies the character or renders that also highlights a character’s behavior (such as cool poses). Most images should be from the main adaptations of the character, unless the images from the other media are of a higher quality than the adaptation. Unless it is needed, do not use fanart for images. If you are, please attribute to the original artist. Due to the website’s dark mode, removing white backgrounds from an image is paramount. This website is suggested to do the background removal. If an image you have takes up too much bytes, it is suggestible to use this site to reduce the byte size. If the byte is still too big, put the compressed image to other sites (or even the same one) to compress even further. Use wikias to look for better images, as even wikias for the series might not contain good official images.
- Creativity is your friend. While it is not recommended to get too ditzy at your ideas, it is best that when writing a profile for a certain character, do you think of capable scenarios between X and Y. Tip: do not use shallow examples (X wields a sword and Y wields one too) and try to think of relationships that makes sense (i.e those characters that are shout-outs for another).
- Pantheon Content:
- Some series or genres will eventually have greater representation in the Pantheon than others. This is unavoidable, but a little diversity helps to make you not look like a shill per say. Try to ensure that if you add a deity from a popular series, make sure that it is because they are a good representative for the trope in question, and not just because they are connected to another deity in their respective canon.
- As far as deities from actual mythologies, there is generally expectation to build the profiles off interactions from fictional portrays rather than basing it entire from the actual myth. Therefore, a mythological deity should be more of a Composite Character whose main identity is from the actual myth.
- Occasionally there will be Gods that carry a title without a trope. This is not forbidden, but it is well advised not to abuse them. The only house that a tropeless profile are wholly allowed is the House of Food. Mainly due to most food items lacking tropes, and adding tropes about said foodstuffs is slightly unnecessary. However, the character being ascended for their choice of a food, or food-related thing must be a decently good representative of said item. (i.e their Trademark Favorite Food, or something that they are closely associated with In-Universe, or both).
- For Dominions and Treasures profiles, always consider what made those places/objects popular in the first place. Were they plot-important, identifiable imagery or have a unique aspect of it? Do not just bring regular objects under the basis of following a certain canon.
- Some series or genres will eventually have greater representation in the Pantheon than others. This is unavoidable, but a little diversity helps to make you not look like a shill per say. Try to ensure that if you add a deity from a popular series, make sure that it is because they are a good representative for the trope in question, and not just because they are connected to another deity in their respective canon.
- For Profile Standards:
- Flavor text is used to describe certain things about a character, place or object. To avoid short ones, it is recommended to write flavor text with 4-7 sentences that can fill around 2 lines each. Be warned that adding too many sentences does not equal good flavor text as it is not an essay of sorts (unless words are substantial and do add to the overall line).
- Character Profiles of a certain person should have the following:
- A portfolio that contains at least 7 (at the minimum) tropes describing their character.
- Flavor text count for a deity profile should have by minimum, 10 (depending if the character in question has enough relationships/characterization) to 15 with a maximum of 20-25 for an individual profile.
- On the other hand, group profiles (profiles of a group that has 4 or more members) have their maximum flavor text count to 15 minimum, giving individual lines for the other members of the group (unless the members are not as characterized) up to 30 at max.
- Dominion profiles of a certain place should have the following:
- A portfolio that contains at least 5 (at the minimum) tropes describing the context of the place.
- Flavor text count should range at least 10 to 15.
- Treasure profiles (inanimate objects without a trope) should have the following:
- A portfolio that contains at least 6 (at the minimum) tropes that describes the object itself.
- Flavor text count should be at least 7 flavor text up to 12 to constitute a treasure profile.
- Overdeity: Omnipotent-level Reality Warpers capable of manipulating the entire universe (or at least the world) at will. Within their own universe they are believed to be omnipotent, or at least impossible-to-completely-destroy embodiments or concepts.
- Greater Gods: High-level Reality Warpers and that are extremely powerful (capable of destroying or changing anywhere from a large city to a planet at will) and very strong non-reality warpers capable of doing the same thing.
- Intermediate Gods: Deities at this level are capable of strong but specialized powers such as hydrokinesis, pyrokinesis, etc. without major drawbacks and low level Reality Warpers capable of affecting their immediate area at will.
- Lesser Gods: Capable of highly specific or little power on their own, or suffer from Power at a Price. However, they may be able to ruthlessly exploit their power or combine it with just being badass enough to make up for it.
- Demigods: Basically the Badass Normals of the pantheon, making up for their lack of abilities with strength, strategy, and/or planning.
- Quasideities: Any otherwise normal human, human equivalent, or below without any special powers or training will fall here.
God X, God/dess of (Insert Trope Here) (Alternate names/Nicknames, Fan Nickname)
- An image, if possible. Please use official art or a screenshot for a picture.
- Rank: This can range from Quasideity, Demigod, Lesser God, Intermediate God, Greater God, to Overdeity, based on representation of power mentioned above.
- Symbol: An image or icon used to represent the deity.
- Theme Song: Official song (in other words, no fan music, regardless of quality) that usually is used in affiliation with the character. If the deity is a musician this will most likely be their Signature Song. If possible, give a link for reference, preferably on either a website like Soundcloud or YouTube.
- Alignment: Good, evil, neutral etc. Forget about The Great Character Alignment Debate here, the Pantheon is one of the few places where you can assign Dungeons & Dragons alignment to characters that don't have alignment system. After all, the Pantheon is based on D&D and is made for fun.
- For Pokémon deities only:
- Gender: Defines the gender of the Pokémon; if genderless, it instead defines what gender they identify as.
- Ability: Provides the Pokémon's ability. If they can Mega Evolve, the new ability is listed as well.
- Moves: Defines the four moves used by a Pokémon. A Z-Move may also be listed.
- Portfolio: Tropes associated with the character.
- Domains: Things that the character has influence over.
- Herald: Non-ascended loyal character that is from the same series as the ascended character.
- High Priest: Non-ascended like heralds, but not from the same series, and can serve as a worthy replacement in case something would happen. They can be served as part-time workers in case the originals are busy with some jobs. Co-Godhood is accepted depending on the approval of the originals, usually if the co-deity is from the same series.
- Followers: Non-ascended characters that are not part of the Pantheon, but would probably worship this character by the fact that they share the ascended character's trope.
- Relationships between ascended characters go here with your chosen character, it goes something like this:
- Allies: Members of the Pantheon that are allies, those that share the same values as them and would theoretically be friends with them.
- Rivals: Members of the Pantheon that are rivals, people who may look at your character with suspicion or a challenge.
- Enemies: Members of the Pantheon that are foes, those who would see your chosen character as a threat, either on their pespective or yours.
- Additional Character Relationships: Members of the Pantheon that do not fit in various relationships (examples include Enemy Mine, Vitriolic Best Buds, Teeth-Clenched Teamwork, Headbutting Heroes, Friendly Enemy, Friendly Rival, Just Friends, etc.), allies, rivals, or enemies.
- Partner: Defines a partnership with an ascended deity and Mon-type. (if any)
- Feared by/Fears: A deity whom the members of the Pantheon notably fear or are feared by.
- Respected by/Respects: A deity whom the members of the Pantheon respect or are respected by.
- Opposed by/Opposes: Not necessarily the same as "Enemies", but this is used for any deity whom the members of the Pantheon directly opposes or is opposed by (basically the opposite of "Respects") terms of certain viewpoints, regardless of alignment.
- Pitied by/Pities: A deity whom the members of the Pantheon feel pity for or are found pitiable by.
- Conflicting Opinion: Sometimes, the Deities argue over specific themes and philosophies.
- Add the Intro. The intro is made up of two trivia, the Ascension Text (or just the Ascension) and The Bio. Both are necessary, but which order you use for them may vary depending on the profile in question. It may be better for one profile to have The Bio first and the Ascension second or vice-versa, although for the most part the order is irrelevant:
- The Ascension Text: This the story of how the character got into the Pantheon and/or was ascended. There are many ways for this to happen. They may be tricked into it or have simply wandered into the Pantheon, they may have had an already ascended character bring them in, they may already be in the Pantheon (via being another deity's Herald or sharing a trope) and got "promoted", or some combination of the above. Anything is possible in the Pantheon, so use your imagination, but try to incorporate their trope into the story, if possible.
- The Bio: A brief synopsis on the character's backstory. No need for the character's entire life/production history, but just give enough that those who don't know the character can get an idea of how the character works.
- Now add some random trivia/facts about events/alignments/moments/fights/friendships/relations etc.
- And some more trivia/facts.
- And a couple of more.
- Note: Standard amount of flavor text for Deities/Characters is 10-15 (15-20 for group profiles) at minimum to 20-25 (30 for group profiles) at maximum.
Template for Dominions profiles:
Place X, Place of (Insert Trope Here) (Alternate names/Nicknames, Fan Nickname)
- An image, if possible. Please use official art or a screenshot for a picture.
- Theme Song (Optional): Not important as compared to Deity and Dominion profiles but a notable mention if there is an accompanying song in use with the object.
- Alignment: Refers to the dominion's role in their story, be it those used by villains or used by the Player Character.
- Portfolio: Tropes associated with the dominion.
- Domains: Things that the place has links to.
- Relationships (Optional): Unless the location has a connection with a specific deity, relationships are optional and may not be required. However, if there are deities linked to the same series as where the dominion is linked to, note them using the relationships, this includes deities that theoretically have interest with said dominion, good or evil otherwise.
- Add the Intro. Here the introduction of the Dominion is added with some tidbits regarding the origins of its' creation and usage in the story. You can also add what made it popular/iconic/important here.
- Now add some random trivia/facts about events/alignments/moments/fights/friendships/relations etc.
- And some more trivia/facts.
- And a couple of more.
- Note: Standard amount of flavor text for Dominions is 10 at minimum to 15 at maximum.
Template for Treasure profiles:
The name of the item in here (Alternate names/Nicknames, Fan Nickname)
- An image, if possible. Please use official art or a screenshot for a picture.
- Appearance: A shortened description of the item's looks with some notable features also mentioned.
- Class: Refer to the Treasure Classification System in the Great Treasury.
- Alignment: Refers to the objects' role in their story, be it those used by villains or used by the Player Character.
- Theme Song (Optional): Not important as compared to Deity and Dominion profiles but a notable mention if there is an accompanying song in use with the object.
- Museum Check: A note that says whether the item is viewable by the public.
- Portfolio: Tropes associated with the item.
- Domains: Things that the item has links to.
- Relationships (Optional): Unless the item has a connection with a specific deity, relationships are optional and may not be required. However, if there are deities linked to the same series as where the item is linked to (especially the original owner of the item), note them using the relationships, this includes deities that theoretically have interest with said object, good or evil otherwise.
- Add the Intro. Here the introduction of the Treasure is added with some tidbits regarding the origins of its' creation and usage in the story. You can also add what made it popular/iconic/important here.
- Now add some random trivia/facts about events/alignments/moments/fights/friendships/relations etc.
- And some more trivia/facts.
- And a couple of more.
- Note: Standard amount of flavor text for Treasures is 7 at minimum to 12 at maximum.

@Kanton: Because Rajang is the only one who is a true Lightning Bruiser in the purest sense of what a Lightning Bruiser is, according to the Laconic entry for it:
"High Offence, Defence and Speed; sacrifices a part of everything else.''
Most of the other High-level Monsters have some form of armor, or ability to nullify damage. Rajang's entire body is unarmored. However, it takes normal damage from everything but Ice, and even then it's not as bad as some monsters weaknesses. Rajang has at least four attacks that can one-shot your ass, it's stupidly fast, and can take an extreme beating with the weapons you'd normally have at the point where you'd fight it.
And of the other Lightning Bruiser Elder Dragons:
- Chameleos would be better for Hollywood Chameleons or one of the Invisibility tropes
- Teostra & Lunastra would be better Opposite Gender Countrparts or Having a Blast
- Kushala Daora / Rusted Kushala Daora would be better for something involving it's Wind/Ice powers
- Alatreon would be better for Barrier Change Boss
- Amatsumagatsuchi would be better for Death from Above (or something related to it's water/wind powers)
- and Gogmazios is already being put into the Pantheon.
Also HyMai, for Rajang's followers I'd put it as "the Hominoidea Fanged Beasts" instead of "The rest of the Primate-like Fanged Beasts"
Also also: I'd personally nominate Chameleos for Hollywood Chameleons. I'd also like to know: is Red Oni, Blue Oni, Non-Indicative Name, or Wave-Motion Gun taken?

Gonna update Grif here.
Old
- Theme Song: Grifball Jam
- Demigod
- Symbol: The AGLA logo
- Portfolio: Being ultra-lazy, being gluttonous, being on the short end of Sarge's schemes, being a Badass Driver when the situation calls for it
- Domain: Sloth, Gluttony, Pain
- Allies: Simmons, Donut, Church (both Alpha and Epsilon), Yukari Yakumo
- Enemies: Sarge (kinda)
- He was forced to ascend after the Main House decided to have a Grifball court built into the House of Sports. Whenever a player picks up the Grifball, Grif's spirit possesses their body and their uniform becomes orange - leaving him the prime target for everyone's Gravity Hammers. Also, much to his chagrin, he gets blown up whenever he scores.
- Whenever anyone's not playing Grifball, Grif can either be seen sleeping in his house or pigging out in the House of Food. His bottomless stomach scares that entire House. He once got into an eating contest with Pac-Man, Kirby, and Kyoko Sakura - after what took weeks (even after manipulation from the House of Time and Space), it ended with a tie.
- He has no idea why everyone thinks his armor is yellow instead of orange. In fact, Charlotte once tried to eat him, mistaking him for a block of cheese. (Grif survived, thanks to his protective cone.)
- He gets uneasy whenever he's around any type of Action Girl. This is likely a result of Tex busting his balls one too many times.
- Has a huge respect for Yukari Yakumo, and tries to emulate her laziness.
- He tried to pledge himself as a follower of every other deity in the Pantheon, under the rhetoric that omni-religion would force him to take every single day as a holy day of rest. It didn't work.
- The Stig, after seeing some records of Grif's driving capabilities, sent Grif an e-mail challenging him to a race. Grif hasn't responded, since he's too lazy to even look at his email.
- Has recently entered a period of mourning. When asked why, he simply responded with "I didn't know him too well, but I knew him well enough." before cramming more lava cakes into his mouth.
New!

- Recently started seeing Mako Reizei after they both came to Princess Celestia at the same time (late afternoon of course) to complain. After talking about their shared love of sleep and respectable skills with military vehicles, they hit it off. Mako even gave him the egg that would eventually hatch into his partner, Munchlax.
Since it would affect her too, here is Mako's old profile.
- Theme song: Asa no Tatakai and Melancholic
- Demigoddess
- Symbol: A sleeping cat on top of a Panzer IV tank
- Alignment: Lawful Neutral
- Portfolio: Believes it to be impossible for humans to wake up before 6 am, Is very skilled at driving tanks, has similarities to a cat, Being late 245 days in a row, Is able to drive a tank after glancing at the manual, The Quiet One, People who don't show many emotions, Sugar-and-Ice Personality, People who would rather not do any work
- Domains: Laziness, Tanks, Driving
- Allies: Miho Nishizumi, Saori Takebe, Hana Isuzu, Miku Kohinata, Princess Luna, Len, Any gods of Laziness and sleep, Mark Jamison Shepherd, Any good aligned gods of Darkness, Mako Mankanshoku, Mako Mori, Millhiore, Leonmitchelli and Couvert, Hibari, Nanako Usami, Sanya V. Litvyak, Yuu Sonoda, Francesca Lucchini
- Partner: Snorlax
- Enemies: Azula, Gunnery Sergeant Hartman
- Opposes: Princess Celestia, Volcarona, Amaterasu, The house of ghosts,Nue Honjuu
- Opposed by: The Pantheons Academy
- High Priestess: Midoriko "Sodoko" Sono
- Odd Friendship: Ragna The Bloodedge
- Mako is well known as one of the laziest deities in the pantheon, only being woken up to sound of a tank firing, right next to her temple.
- The Academy has expelled Mako after the staff caught wind of her 245 consecutive late arrivals.
- Mako is thankful for this because it means she gets to stay sleeping for longer.
- Except for when she's doing Senshado with Miho. In which case, Mako becomes a more terrifying driver than Yukari Tanizaki.
- Mako believes that Princess Luna should keep the moon up later so she can get more sleep, and Mako is not alone as the other gods of darkness agree with her. This has in-turn led to a one-sided dislike for Princess Celestia; whose job is to... you guessed it, raising the sun.
- Mako isn't too fond of Amaterasu or Volcarona either as they can give the Pantheon sunlight just as easily as Celestia.
- Seeing a ghost is one of the few things that can cause Mako to go full speed in reverse without looking where she's going, so Mako makes it a point to stay far away from the house of ghosts to the relief of the other deities.
- This display of fear has attracted the attention of Ragna the Bloodedge due to him having the same fear. Ragna is thankful that Mako is as lazy as she is because it means there's one less person to get in his way when he goes off and does stuff.
- On once occasion, while these two were together, a ghost (later known as Nue Honjuu) suddenly appeared before their eyes and made Mako faint. When she woke up and got out of the hospital, people were looking at her while wispering at each other. After learning that Ragna carried her Princess-style, their meetings became a bit awkward after she thanked him, with some gods shipping them to boot.
- At first, she was afraid of a girl called Sanya, thinking that she was a ghost. However, one day when she found Sanya sleeping next to her due to being too tired to fly back to her own temple, she found out that she is figuratively a ghost and the two sometimes sleep together. Much to the chagrin of Eila.
- This display of fear has attracted the attention of Ragna the Bloodedge due to him having the same fear. Ragna is thankful that Mako is as lazy as she is because it means there's one less person to get in his way when he goes off and does stuff.
- Mako finds it odd that someone who sounds like her, could be so willing to help other people, but Miku's kindness made Mako want to be friends with her.
- One of the few things more terrifying than Yukari driving a car is Mako driving a tank. It's not because she's bad but because she's amazing at it. This has made the other gods fear what would happen if Yukari ever saw Mako's driving.
- Before Mako met Mako, Mako was really confused about why the other gods were talking about Mako doing and saying a lot of weird stuff. Then Mako met Mako and she understood everything the other gods were talking about. She was also surprised to find out that she fell asleep faster than her in school.

- Odd Friendship: Ragna The Bloodedge
- Mako is well known as one of the laziest deities in the pantheon, only being woken up to sound of a tank firing, right next to her temple.
- The Academy has expelled Mako after the staff caught wind of her 245 consecutive late arrivals.
- Mako is thankful for this because it means she gets to stay sleeping for longer.
- Except for when she's doing Senshado with Miho. In which case, Mako becomes a more terrifying driver than Yukari Tanizaki.
- Mako believes that Princess Luna should keep the moon up later so she can get more sleep, and Mako is not alone as the other gods of darkness agree with her. This has in-turn led to a one-sided dislike for Princess Celestia; whose job is to... you guessed it, raising the sun.
- Mako isn't too fond of Amaterasu or Volcarona either as they can give the Pantheon sunlight just as easily as Celestia.
- Seeing a ghost is one of the few things that can cause Mako to go full speed in reverse without looking where she's going, so Mako makes it a point to stay far away from the house of ghosts to the relief of the other deities.
- This display of fear has attracted the attention of Ragna the Bloodedge due to him having the same fear. Ragna is thankful that Mako is as lazy as she is because it means there's one less person to get in his way when he goes off and does stuff.
- On once occasion, while these two were together, a ghost (later known as Nue Honjuu) suddenly appeared before their eyes and made Mako faint. When she woke up and got out of the hospital, people were looking at her while wispering at each other. After learning that Ragna carried her Princess-style, their meetings became a bit awkward after she thanked him, with some gods shipping them to boot.
- At first, she was afraid of a girl called Sanya, thinking that she was a ghost. However, one day when she found Sanya sleeping next to her due to being too tired to fly back to her own temple, she found out that she is figuratively a ghost and the two sometimes sleep together. Much to the chagrin of Eila.
- This display of fear has attracted the attention of Ragna the Bloodedge due to him having the same fear. Ragna is thankful that Mako is as lazy as she is because it means there's one less person to get in his way when he goes off and does stuff.
- Mako finds it odd that someone who sounds like her, could be so willing to help other people, but Miku's kindness made Mako want to be friends with her.
- One of the few things more terrifying than Yukari driving a car is Mako driving a tank. It's not because she's bad but because she's amazing at it. This has made the other gods fear what would happen if Yukari ever saw Mako's driving.
- Before Mako met Mako, Mako was really confused about why the other gods were talking about Mako doing and saying a lot of weird stuff. Then Mako met Mako and she understood everything the other gods were talking about. She was also surprised to find out that she fell asleep faster than her in school.
- Recently started seeing Grif after they both came to Princess Celestia at the same time (late afternoon of course) to complain. After talking about their shared love of sleep and respectable skills with military vehicles, they hit it off. She even gave Grif the egg that would eventually hatch into his partner, Munchlax.
This 'k? If so I will update the partnership list too.

This is the most creative signature you will ever see.How about just Dexter Grif? Seeing as how the rank Sarge gave him was used comically, yet sparingly, putting it as an alias might be a better alternative.

"AXEL ON STAAAAGE!"Can someone please tell me if any of these tropes are taken: Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass, Impact Silhouette or Trash of the Titans?
I thought so. No points for correctly guessing which one I'm planning on ascending.

In times of trouble, turn to the Devil for guidance.I feel like the first one is taken. Others are most likely free.
yay more Witches
Daily reminder that CLAMP managed to turn Sonic and Tails into humans. Also, A Vile figure was released with whiskey.
- The D-Arts Vile figure comes with a glass of Bourbon, an homage to his appearance in the manga. After Armored Armadillo's death, X finds Vile in a bar holding a glass. Vile tells X it would not matter if the glass is filled with Bourbon or mud as Reploids can't tell the difference between them, and breaks the glass. (Curiously, this is contradicted later on as X, Zero and other Reploids are shown enjoying beverages, X in particular vomiting from the taste of Dr. Cain's mixed drink.) Later in Sigma's fortress, Vile asks X if he wants a glass of Bourbon before dying, making a reference to their previous encounter.

Zidane:
edited 12th Jul '15 4:27:59 AM by rin14100
In times of trouble, turn to the Devil for guidance.I think Zidane is ready. I am guessing he will go to one of the subhouses in House of Combat or House of Professions. Can I get any approvals?
Zidane Tribal, God of Cultured Warriors (Angel of Death)
- Theme Song: Zidane's Theme
- Intermediate God, Greater God during Trance
- Symbol: His two knives crossing
- Alignment: Chaotic Good
- Portfolio: All-Loving Hero, Anti Anti Christ, Artificial Human, Chivalrous Pervert Who Stops Acting Perverted Toward His Love Interest, Chronic Hero Syndrome, Doom Magnet, Dual Wielding, Double Weapon, Genre Savvy, Gentleman Thief, Keet, Little Bit Beastly, Lovable Rogue, Sixteen Years Old, Nice Guy
- Domains: Theft, Culture, Acting, Combat
- Allies:
- Fellow Final Fantasy Gods: Vivi Ornitier, Cosmos, Warrior of Light, Firion, Cecil Harvey, Bartz Klauser, Terra Branford, Cloud Strife, Squall Leonhart, Tidus, Lightning Farron
- Others: Sun Wukong, Son Goku, Raven, Shinji Ikari, Ryoji Mochizuki, Robin, Ryuko Matoi, Steven Universe, Yusuke Godai/Kamen Rider Kuuga
- Enemies: Kuja, Lord Chaos, Frieza, Ragyo Kiryuin
- At first glance, it is easy enough to tell that Zidane is a warrior and a thief. What a lot of people don't expect him to be however, is that of a theater actor. He also has knowledge of music and is generally Genre Savvy.
- Following his ascension, Zidane was happily reunited with Vivi, as the latter died back on their home universe.
- Thanks to the events in Dissidia, Zidane gets well along with Bartz Klauser as a duo.
- Sometimes hangs out in the House of Theater to participate in acting, as well as the House of Music.
- With Weiss Schnee, they acted out a grand swordfight for an audience. To their dismay (and Zidane's chagrin) however, they learned that out of 100 gods watching, 99 was impressed. Encores did not change the outcome no matter what, so they gave up on impressing the 100th god. Zidane eventually figured out that the 100th watching god was in fact Statler and Waldorf. At that point, he was more concerned about the fact that the two apparently counted as a single god instead of two.
- As someone who was made to destroy but don't want to, Zidane has befriended other gods who're in a similar position. He has especially gotten quite chummy with Ryoji Mochizuki, though even he envies Ryoji's ability to automatically attract girls.
- Frieza was not too happy to see another "filthy monkey" in the Pantheon, especially when that "monkey" also has a Super Mode. Out of anger, Frieza attacked Zidane in an attempt to kill him, but Son Goku was able to save Zidane before anything bad happened and drove Frieza away. Since then, the "monkeys" has gotten friendly with each other. Though Zidane has to wonder if there's any connections between him and the saiyans.
- Formed a friendship with Ryuko, and happened to learn about Ragyo from that. Zidane was appalled to learn about what she did to her own daughters, and decided on the spot to offer his help to Ryuko the next time Ragyo would attempt anything. Not to mention that there's something about Ragyo's voice that bothers him...
On a different note, I still want to fill out GUAD's ranks, so any suggestions for Undying?
Undying, Divine Lord of Zombie Spawning Graves and Herald of the Dead God's Army (The Almighty Dirge)
- Lesser God. Intermediate God in Flesh Golem form
- Symbol: Decaying and rotting head. Alternately, his tombstone
- Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
- Portfolio: Flesh Golem, Came Back From Mere Soldier To Zombie Lord, King Mook, Growing Larger As He Inflicts Decay, Herald And Leader of The Dead God's Army, Sickly Green Glow, Swarming His Enemies With Zombies, Enjoys Gummy Vitamins
- Domains: Undeath, Decay, War, Combat
- Allies:
- Fellow Dire Heroes: Ostarion, Pudge
- Others: Nekron, Nurgle, Nagash, Albert Wesker, Arthas Menethil
- Rivals: The Champions of Runeterra
- Enemies:
- Certain Radiant Heroes: Purist Thunderwrath
- Others: Jill Valentine, Ash Williams, Artix Von Krieger, Doomguy
- It was a dark day for the Radiant when Undying, seeing the perfect opportunity to destroy the Radiant Heroes, ambushed them in the Pantheon's forest and created a Tombstone. The Tombstone created an almost endless number of zombies thanks to the large group that had gathered that day, almost overwhelming the Radiants. Thankfully, they managed to destroy the Tombstone and drive Undying off before anyone got grievously wounded. Still, the court took notice of the Tombstone, and declared that Undying may very well be the best candidate for a vacant title that has been lingering around for a while.
- Those who wish to fight him must NOT DO SO AS A GROUP. It may seem like a good idea to overwhelm him with numbers, but Undying's abilities are designed to become more potent as the number of his enemies increases, meaning that a large group of enemies will be overwhelmed by the sheer number of zombies that his tombstone spawns if they can't coordinate.
- Because of his powers, he got banned from participating in Overthrow.
- As the Almighty Dirge, Undying seeks to end lives where he finds them. Because of his condition and mission, even some of the immoral dire heroes find him uncomfortable to be around with.
- Not to be confused with Nagash the Undying, though they do appear to appreciate each other.
Wave-Motion Gun: Taken by Nanoha. As well as Beam Spam oddly enough.
Undying@ Make a joke about him and the Thriller dance.
I always feel weird when people talk about Char Aznable, because... Well. My name.
Anyway, gonna again dump my Sandbox here, asking for any suggestions for any of them. Also, for anybody curious as to Ace Rimmer's... Ace-ness, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gXYfnWRp1Q0 here's a good example of him doing what he does.
- Potential House: Narrative
- Theme Songs: Kazuya: Pinch Battle Hibiki: Battle of the Brave
- Lesser Gods, Kazuya is a Greater God upon gaining the Throne of Bel, and an Overdeity when awakened as the King of Bel
- Symbol: For Kazuya: The COMP, with his headphones covering it. For Hibiki: a cell phone displaying the Nicaea symbol, covered by his hood.
- Alignment: As with all SMT characters, hard to pin down. They mostly settle around Neutral Good, though Kazuya is definitely quicker to sympathize with Chaos.
- Portfolio: Both: Fighting Fate With All You Have, Surviving Grave Situations With No Training, Quickly Gathering Allies With Little Effort
- Domains: Survival, Smirking,
- Allies: Both: Flynn, Aleph, Naoki Kashima, Yukiteru and Minene
- Enemies: Death The Horseman
- Ascended upon achieving their ultimate purposes in their native worlds: Kazuya becoming the King of Bel and Hibiki defeating Polaris alongside his friends.
- Because of his use of Lucifer in his great battle against Yamato, and his friendship with The Anguished One/Alcor, the Demon Lord has something of an his alliance with Hibiki. Kazuya's only response when asked about his opinion of Lucifer was "he's strong", a sentiment which Lucifer holds towards Kazuya too, seeing as the fight with him is one of the few times where he felt the need to bust out Megidoladyne.
- Conversely, Kazuya is one of the few members of the Pantheon not part of the GUAL to have seen a more positive side to YHVH, as during his ordeal, YHVH apparently acted with humanity's interests at heart. The revelation that YHVH engineered the original Cain and Abel scenario, however, has cast a few doubts as to the legitimacy of YHVH's kindness during that time.
- Kazuya has had a number of duels with Naoki, to see whether the King of Bel or the Demi-Fiend was superior. While there has been no clear victor as of yet, the damage caused by these clashes have forced maps to be redrawn.
- Their continued defiance of the "Natural Order" has earned them the ire of Death the Horseman, one of the worst gods one could possibly be enemies with.
- Surpisingly enough, Minegishi keeps being mistaken for Kazuya Mishima, which cause some people to look with a confused expression. He doesn't mind, though.
- Similarly, Hibiki is confused for Hibiki Tachibana. He actually made fast friends with her.
- Hibiki was surprised to hear the voice of his friend Io Nitta during a visit to the house of Food, and even more surprised when he found the voice belonged not to his friend, but a rather brash, somewhat abrasive red-haired Puella Magi. Hibiki was rather amused by the disparity: as far as personalities go, Io Nitta and Kyoko Sakura are as different as night and day.
- Despite sharing a spot, they don't interact much with each other, though they both show a certain respect for each other regarding how they both dealt with their similar situations. They do pull off a good Straight Man and Wise Guy duo, though, it's been noted.
- Potential House: Beast
- Theme Song: Sparkling Blue Light
- Intermediate God, Greater God under Apex status
- Symbol: A tribal rendition of the wolf◊
- Alignment: True Neutral
- Portfolio: Literal Lightning Bruiser, Canis Major, The Slow Walk, Noble Wolf At Least In Presence, A Hellhound-like Subspecies, Charging Its Own Rage Mode, The Dreaded
- Domain: Walking, Nobility, Wolves, Lightning
- Allies: Terry Bogard, Cerberus
- Enemies:
- Opposes/Opposed By: The Monster Hunters
- Odd Friendship With: Raiden
- Size: 1295.31 - 2063.16 cm (Standard) 1397.18 - 1887.00 cm (Stygian)
- Very slowly made its way into the Pantheon, uncaring of the peons as the Emperor made its entrance... And then some of the Monster Hunters jumped onto it and after the ensuing fight, the Zinogre was made the God of Savage Wolves. Zinogre seems a bit miffed about how that played out, though it seems proud that it knocked a few of the Hunters out.
- Raiden seems to get along with the Zinogre quite well, perhaps due to their shared electrical motifs, their music sounding similar and Raiden being somewhat reminded of Bladewolf by the beast.
- Seems to be stalked by Agitha now and again, the self-proclaimed Princess showing interest in the Fulgurbugs the Zinogre uses to charge itself up.
- Given its penchant for casually strolling about, many were suprised by its speed and acrobatics combined with its sheer power when it actually got into a proper fight.
- Found an ally in Terry Bogard, mostly because... Terry's wolf motif and Zinogre being a wolf, but also because Zinogre and Terry seem to share a move.
- Its subspecies, Stygian Zinogre, has been occasionally seen around the Pantheon. It often hangs around with Cerberus, though more often than not it's on its own.
- Potential House: Magic
- Demigod on foot, Intermediate God in Delphine
- Symbol: Delphine's head
- Alignment: Chaotic Good, can descend into Chaotic Neutral when distressed
- Portfolio: Non-Magical Person in a World Of Magic, Heroic Self-Deprecation, Stepford Smiler, Sanity Slippage, Survivor Guilt, Jerkass Façade
- Domain: Non-Magic, Mechas
- Allies:
- Enemies:
- Potential House: Heroes/Narrative
- Theme Song: What a theme!
- Intermediate God (Though he insists he's only a Demigod)
- Symbol: His jacket
- Alignment: Neutral Good
- Portfolio: The Ace, Alternate Rimmer Is Awesome, "Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast!", Chick Magnet, Even the Guys Want Him, For Want Of A Nail, Humble Hero, Nice Guy, Legacy Character
- Domain: Dimensions, Ace-ness, Humility
- Allies: Cat
- Enemies:
- Ascended to the Pantheon after dying and passing on his title to the main Red Dwarf-verse Rimmer. He made his entrance by flying in on a robot dinosaur, dispatching several Mooks (helpfully provided by The Overlord), rescuing a Damsel in Distress, carrying her out of a sudden explosion before retiring to the House of Love with his rescued damsel.
- What a guy!
You really should stop offering people for ascension without actually having a trope for them.

All right, so I'm working on Hope and aside from the Trope problem I'm wondering which rank to put her. She's Greater Goddess right off the bat, but with the Phoenix Force and bringing Mutantkind back from extinction, that's Overdeity easy. Plus, I can pull a Naruto and have Hope as a living temple.
Any help on Hope would be appreciated.
Only thing I can think up for Hope is It Sucks to Be the Chosen One. But I think that one is taken.
@ TPPR 10, are you going to work on Heather? If not, then I can do it if that's no problem.
If you have no objections then I would like to work on her and finish what I started.
