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.

Too much "The Guy".
Why I can't never get it right?... I actually have no idea r-lock
I agree.
In any case, what do you all think of the profile thus far? I actually started working on it when I first brought up the possibility of giving The Guy Iconic Logo. Goddamn it, I pulled a snafu
Reposting it as well:
The Guy, God of Metal Band Mascots (The Hand of God, The Dark Messiah, The Vengeful One, Morbus)
- Theme Song: The Vengeful One
- Rank: Intermediate God / (Overdeity true form)
- Symbol: His Eyes and Smile◊
- Alignment: Chaotic Good
- Portfolio: Anthropomorphic Personification of The Sacred Darkness, Black Cloak, Breaking the Bonds, Celestial Body, Chained by Fashion, Combat Pragmatist, Dark Is Not Evil, Dark Messiah, Eldritch Abomination, Face Framed in Shadow, Hope Bringer, Iconic Logo, In the Hood, Living Shadow,Phlegmings, Rebel Leader, Red Eyes, Take Warning, Sentient Cosmic Force, Slasher Smile, Uses Blue Flames, Too Many Belts
- Domains: Symbolism, Rebellion, Freedom
- Superiors: Disturbed
- Allies: Raiden, Solid Snake, Lelouch vi Britannia, Johnny Blaze, Jackie Estacado, Koichi Kimura, Satsuki Kiryuin, Ryuko Matoi
- Enemies: Steven Armstrong, Charles zi Britannia, Ragyo Kiryuin, Nui Harime, Skull Face
- Opposes: Those who would dominate and control othersnote
- The Guy was chosen to be the divine representative of Metal Band Mascots, despite being one of the newer ones on the scene, due to the fact that unlike most of the other ones (barring possibly Eddie the Head) he has a story told throughout his appearances. He's been indestructible, a rebel leader, a criminal, The Grim Reaper, an Axe-man, a soldier, a samurai, and an Asylum patient. Then he was shown to be so much more than thought.

In times of trouble, turn to the Devil for guidance.Reposting due to new page.
Immortan Joe, God of Aged Villains (Joseph Moore)
- Lesser God (Seen as an Overdeity)
- Symbol: His Mask
- Alignment: Lawful Evil
- Portfolio: Achieving Old Age in the Wasteland, Damn Good Driver, Large Ham, Deep Voice, Usage of Women to Produce Future Sons, Pragmatic Villainy, Former Colonel Who Sought Order
- Domains: Charisma, Age, Order
- Followers: The War Boys, Count Dooku, Mom, Felix Jongluer, Father Elijah
- Allies: Hoyt Volker
- Enemies: Most Good or Neutral Aligned Female Gods, Most in the House of Love, Kenshiro, Raoh, Toki, Optimus Prime
- Opposed by: Tomaru Sawagoe, Acid Rain
- His ascension was accompanied by a caravan of post-apocalyptic vehicles and the sound of a shredding guitar. It was not long before he took a temple in his name, leaving the War Boys to believe he has reached Valhalla, after his death by Furiosa's hand.
- He ranks very high on Kenshiro's hit list due to his tyrannical rule of the Citadel, but also to his treatment of the Wives. Raoh also hates him for the same reasons.
- Toki thinks he is a mockery of messiahs everywhere, but Joe thinks that the order is a necessity for him.
- He was heavily despised by Acid Rain and Tomaru Sawagoe, calling the Court of the Gods on hypocrisy, despite being told that he was better written. To this day, he declared them, along with the rest of the Disgraces, as mediocre.
- He is disappointed that his body has not changed to a more suitable form, but has accepted this due to him actually being a god.
- Harbors a specific hatred towards Optimus Prime, because of how he was killed.
- Hoyt Volker sees profit from his work, his pragmatic approach to situations, and admires his Gigahorse and Joe sees him as a potential ally to supply his War Boys.
I can't really think of any allies besides Hoyt.

"I treasure every day with you, darling." "No need to be so sappy, love." "You know that's how she is, Nia." - AU!Pyra, Nia, Mythra@BSN: Good start on him.
@Ore-O: Joe could use another flavor text or two (likely explaining why he is allies with Ragyo, Hoyt, and Megatron).

In times of trouble, turn to the Devil for guidance.Alrighty then, here's the final draft for Ratatoskr! Y'all think the squirrel's ready to be ascended?
Ratatoskr, God of Spreading Slander Among the Gods (Ratatösk, Drill-Tooth, The Sly Messenger, Errand Boy—(We were experiencing technical difficulties. We will be back shortly after we sack the one responsible)—Rattataskr)
- Potential House: The House of Mentalism, under Trickery
- Theme: Ratatoskr's Theme
- Rank: Claims to be an Overdeity but actually an Intermediate God
- Symbol: The Acorn of Yggdrasil, now in four colors!
- Alignment: Supposed to be True Neutral as a Messenger, but leans WAY in favor of Chaotic Neutral.
- Portfolio: Been Around Since Yggdrasill Appeared, Hyper Mobility, Loves Acorns and Constantly Reminds Everyone, The Only One that Lives and Climbs Over Yggdrasil, Shock and Awe, Small Name, Big Ego, So Adorable Yet So Dangerous, Spreading Rumors Because It Amuses Him
- Domains: Gossip, Conflict, Squirrels, Acorns, Trees
- Followers: ANYONE who loves some good gossip.
- Allies:
- Rivals: Yveltal, Nidhogg and the eagle on Yggdrasill (not that they know, non-ascended)
- Enemies: Yggdrasil (not the tree), Trollkaiger
- Respects: Xerneas
- Friendly Rivalry: Loki
- Opposed By: The Lolrangers
- During his audience for ascension as the potential God of Nutty Squirrels, he regaled the audience with his various feats of awesomeness. Just as he was getting to the "good part", a handful of gods who have seen him participate in the Battlefield of the Gods called him out on his outrageous lies. Even pointing out that he even spread slander in the middle of battle. The audience, witnessing all of this, decided a seat in the House of Mentalism would be a better fit for the wily squirrel.
- Even though he has a temple in the House of Mentalism, he prefers to spend most his time darting around, looking for juicy bits of gossip, or simply climbing around the World Tree at Mahora Academy. It's nowhere near as big as the Yggdrasil tree, but he enjoys the acorns it drops nonetheless.
- Despite his reputation for instigating rivalries, most of the Pantheon still comes to him for news for any potential gossip, rumors, and/or dirt on their enemies.
- If one were to describe him, there's one thing you should never call him: Errand Boy. If you do... well, let's just say that the last person who did Rage Quit her job in a spectacular display of irritation. All because Ratatoskr hijacked her job as an announcer and gave an aggrandized tale of his heroic deeds like he was the Marty Stu of Norse Mythology...
- Claims that he once beat Thor at arm wrestling, Thor just sighed in irritation and declined to comment on this ridiculous statement.
- Doesn't have any personal issues with fellow Trickster Loki, but Ratatoskr very much prefers Loki when he's not on the Battlefield, due to being subject to Kill Steals when they're on the same team, and being a prime target to being Backstabbed when they're not.
- Xerneas is one of the few gods the squirrel doesn't actively try to piss off. This may be due to the fact that something about the Deer God reminds him of Yggdrasil. Xerneas is usually kind enough to let the nutty squirrel climb on its horns without complaint.
- Yveltal, however, reminds of Ratatoskr of the eagle above the Yggdrasil (the squirrel never did bother to learn its name), so he tried to get a rise out of the giant bird. Unamused, Yveltal chased the squirrel off with a few well-placed Oblivion Wings.
- When he heard someone with the name Yggdrasil was in the Pantheon, Ratatoskr thought the World Tree must have sent an Avatar-of-sorts to watch over him. What he did NOT expect was a "Yandere, bishie who wasn't as bright as his powers would suggest". All that could be heard soon after was Ratatoskr's laughter as he darted away, dodging orbs and beams of light from a furious Yggdrasil.
- When Doreen first saw him, she immediately picked him up and started cuddling and petting him, saying she's never, ever met another squirrel as divine as him. She didn't even care his name sounded like some villain she beat up not too long ago.
- The excitement levels went even higher when she showed him to her best friend Makoto. The resulting Squees were heard all over the Pantheon. Later, Ratatoskr simply said, "What can I say? If you got it, flaunt it, and I definitely got it!"
- Afterwards, when Ratatoskr learned of Makoto's mortal deeds when she worked under that snake Yuuki Terumi, Ratatoskr thought something about her situation and motifs felt familiar, and the two have been good friends since.
- The excitement levels went even higher when she showed him to her best friend Makoto. The resulting Squees were heard all over the Pantheon. Later, Ratatoskr simply said, "What can I say? If you got it, flaunt it, and I definitely got it!"
- The Lolrangers dislike him due to his habit of spreading Malicious Slander, and Ratatoskr doesn't have the same cruel streak like the Trollkaiger.
- That being said, he has found some kindred spirits in the Itazura Griefers, and he even joined them as "Itazura Orange".
- "I am...Ratatoskr! Lord of creation, maker of all living things, and destroyer of the winds of fate!"
NOTE: Chris X mentioned to me that there was some sort of 'Makoto Nanaya is Terumi's weakness' hype going on? I don't want to be subject to that hype (mainly cause I didn't even know it existed), so just let me know if anything in here seems to be riding on that hype.

WARNING: Subject can and will disappear off the face of the planet for unspecified amounts of time.I love how you directly referenced Disco Pajama Jesus, that made me laugh so hard also you could make him allies with Couvert Eschenbach Pastillage as she's a squirrel and Fiona Mayfield as she cuddles a squirrel during one of her intros and victory animations

In times of trouble, turn to the Devil for guidance.One last thing. Please remember to pothole his profile onto anyone who he has relations with (ie: If he is allied with so and so, include him as an ally of that deity. Same thing if he is enemies with someone, opposes or is opposed by, and whatnot) once he is ascended. The same goes to any future profiles planned.
@rin14100: I may not know my way around the Pantheon like some others, but I know good comedy when I see it
Ratatoskr likes anyone who love squirrels! Especially if they're women
@r-lock256: Oh, you mean add his name on the pages of the Gods mentioned on the portfolio? Don't I hold off on that until he actually ascends?
@Zero Chill: In Iwata We Trust.

WARNING: Subject can and will disappear off the face of the planet for unspecified amounts of time.Skarlet's final draft Version 2.
Skarlet, Goddess of Blood Magik
- Potential House: Magic
- Intermediate Goddess (can get stronger when in contact with blood)
- Symbols: A Pair Of Bloodstained Katanas
- Alignment: Chaotic Evil
- Portfolio: Extremely Unstable, The Dragon (to Reiko in the Tie-in Comics), Gets Stronger When Blood Touches Her Skin, Combat Stilettos, Created From The Blood Of Fallen Warriors Combined With Sorcery, Knife Nut, Shes Got Legs
- Domains: Sorcery, Blood, Kombat
- Allies:
- Non-Ascended: Reiko and Havik, her cohorts in The Blood God Cult.
- The Ascended Kombatants: Shao Kahn (as he created her)
- Other Allies: Bloodseeker/Strygwyr Jedah Dohma, Dormammu
- Friendly Rivals: Sadira, Azula
- Enemies:
- The Ascended Kombatants: The Cage Family (Johnny Cage, Sonya Blade and Cassie Cage), the Briggs Family (Jax and Jacqui Briggs), Mileena (due to Skarlet's role in the Blood Code Incident), Quan Chi, Leona Heidern
- Other Enemies: Amon, Maya Fallegeros, Guts, Rachel Roth/Raven, Doctor Strange, Zatanna Zatara, Doctor Doom, every single vampire in the Pantheon (thanks to Cassie and Jacqui) and every good parent in the Pantheon (thanks to Johnny, Sonya and Jax)
- Potential Targets For Their Blood: Onaga, Ryu, Ryu Hayabusa, James Howlett/Wolverine, Wade Wilson/Deadpool, Naruto Uzumaki, Akuma, Jun and Jin Kazama, Kazuya Mishima, Geese Howard, Ryuji Yamazaki, Jago
- Skarlet has come to the Pantheon following Shao Kahn's successful lobbying for her ascension. The construct created from the blood of fallen warriors was met at the Pantheon by Kahn himself. Skarlet pledges her fealty towards Kahn and once again serves as his enforcer, while secretly working on ascending Reiko and Havik to the Pantheon.
- Cassie Cage and Jacqui Briggs were less than pleased upon hearing of Skarlet's ascension, as they remember all too well of the role she played in corrupting them with the Blood Code. Their respective parents and Mileena, even less so.
- What makes Skarlet so dangerous is the blood of her opponents. Should she comes into contact with the red stuff, she gets stronger. But it's also her weakness when D'Vorah is involved, as Kytinn blood is extremely toxic.
- As she and Sadira are assassins there is a degree of mutual respect between the pair. So much so that Sadira extended to Skarlet an invitation to join the Red Eyes of Rylai. Skarlet politely refused, as her loyalties lie with Shao Kahn.
- As Skarlet is a construct created from blood, she gets the attention of not only the House of Vampires, but from the Cullen Family as well. It also doesn't help matters that it had been both Cassie and Jacqui who told the Vampires of this fact as payback for her torturing the both of them and corrupting them with the Blood Code. How does Skarlet know that Cassie and Jacqui were responsible? When Gabriel Belmont (who is leading the charge) told her that "Cassandra Cage and Jacqueline Briggs send their regards." Skarlet now avoids the ascended vampires at all costs.
- It's even worse with the parents of the Pantheon, particulary the good ones. This time, it had been Johnny, Sonya and Jax who exposed Skarlet's role in the Blood Code incident and of how she corrupted both Cassie and Jacqui with the Blood Code. She has also earned the ire of several sorcerers, particulary Doctor Strange, Raven and Zatarra Zatana due to her use of blood magik (even they realize that using it is a bad idea).
- Tends to avoid Amon as well. As she is a product of both Sorcery and blood (with emphasis on the latter), picking a fight with the master bloodbender is a very bad idea. And despite being completely nuts, Skarlet has no plans on being Wolverine to Amon's Magneto.
- Speaking of Wolverine, Skarlet has him in her sights, due to his blood, or rather, his Healing Factor. She thinks that it she comes into contact with Logan's blood, then she would acquire her own type of healing. Wolverine is one of several intended targets for Skarlet in regards to their blood.
Satoru Iwata, God of Honest Corporate Executives and He Who Inspired Gaming Everywhere (Iwata-san)
- Rank: Overdeity
- Symbol: The Nintendo Logo. Alternatively, a bunch of bananas
- Alignment: Lawful Good
- Portfolio: Good Corporate Executive Operator, Good Bosses, Nice Guy, Fountain of Memes, Started Off As a Programmer and Became a President, Being a Gamer as Well as a Programmer and President, Unacceptable Target
- Domains: Gaming, Business, Honesty, Good
- Followers: Nintendo Gamers
- Allies: All Nintendo Deities. Out of them, however, Kirby, Ness, and Pikachu are especially close to him. Mr. Rogers, Anonymous
- Non-ascended: Shigeru Miyamoto, Reggie Fils-Aime
- Friendly Rivals: Sony, Microsoft
- Enemies: None. Any enemies would immediately be struck down by his allies and those who respect him.
- Respected by: Every single Video Game God, Gamer Deity and Game Developer
- High Priest: Shigeru Miyamoto
- Herald: Masahiro Sakurai
- Satoru Iwata never passed away, but made it to the next level and ascended into the Pantheon. He was met with a tearful reunion by all of the Nintendo deities in the Pantheon and even several non-Nintendo Video Game deities. He left a sign of his blessings in the mortal world with a rainbow over Nintendo's headquarters.
- As his time as a mortal, his programming skill was already that of legends. His feats included, but are not limited to; compacting the size of Gold and Silver so that the Kanto Region would fit alongside the Johto Region, programmed Earthbound within a week and successfully ported the battle code for Pokémon Stadium from the Gameboy to the Nintendo 64 without any source notes. He and his Herald were also responsible for the creation of Kirby and his entire universe.
- Even after becoming the CEO of Nintendo, he never lost sight of his goal; to bring fun video games to everybody. He never took credit for the accolades of the company and took responsibility for the company’s failures, such as the time when he cut his salary in half to avoid firing any people employed under him. This had earned the awe and respect of even the most critical and jaded of journalists, such as Jim Sterling.
- The deities who have witnessed him all say he is a humble man with a kind nature and fun-loving personality. This is shown when he would host the Pantheon’s Nintendo Directs, holding bananas and telling the viewers to please understand when information or a release date is delayed.
- Upon his ascension into the Pantheon, Satoru Iwata had gained immunity from any sort of criticism. Because of this, he is one of the very few deities who is capable of uniting the entire Pantheon under one goal, if only for a moment. If anyone were to even insult him, Lucifer and YHVH would gladly put aside all of their conflicts and differences for the second to annihilate the one who speaks ill of him.
- “On my business card, I am a corporate president. In my mind, I am a game developer. But in my heart, I am a gamer.”
That 2nd to last fact might be an over-exaggeration, but considering how the internet pretty much piles up on whoever speaks bad of Iwata, I feel that it is justified.

I don't even@Dave: You sure do
@Skarlet: Carmine Prime also fights using his blood.
In times of trouble, turn to the Devil for guidance.Tone down the 2nd last text, it's kinda shilling him. I mean, he was a great man, but not someone who would unite the Devil and God together. Maybe replace it with something about him being a well-loved and greatly respected man among the gaming gods.
, Believe me, I know.

Wanna bet? Some of worst fandom rivalries were set aside when people trash-talked Iwata after he passed. Seriously

I feel that it is deserving. Besides, they'll just get back to the struggle between order and law after they are done. Though, I could tone it down with just sending Anonymous after them.

I don't even@Dave: That's what I'm saying. After you ascend someone to their proper house, pothole the profile onto other deities that they have relations with.
edited 17th Jul '15 6:47:06 PM by r-lock256
Actually, that just reminded me:
Is Mister Rogers in the Pantheon? Commonality Connection with Iwata-sama due to their shared untargetability for trash-talk
@BSN: We have another The Guy.
Would The Guy think The Guy is out to take the title of The Guy from him?
