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.

Second draft for these guys.
Dr. Wallace Breen, God of Quislings (Breen, Dr. Breen, the Administrator)
- Demigod
- Symbol: The Union's "clamp" along with the robotic "CMB" word below it. (Shared with the Combine)
- Alignment: Lawful Evil, with some Neutral Evil moments.
- Portfolio: Speaking Calm Despite Being Evil, Breaking Speeches, Corrupt Corporate Executive, Evil Overlord, Actually A Hypocrite, Did What Was Necessary To Save The Human Race Which Led To Humanity's Enslavement And Evaded Extinction, Unknown In The First Game, Smug Snake
- Domains: Administrations, Leadership, Collaborators
- Followers: George Sairas, Dylan Gould, Edward Diego
- Allies:
- Complications with: Ragyo Kiryuin
- Enemies: Gordon Freeman, Chell, Cave Johnson (his competiton), GLaDOS
- Opposes: Jim Raynor, Arcturus Mengsk, Lelouch vi Britannia
- The main collaborator who stopped the Combine from ending Humanity itself, Doctor Wallace Breen commanded the Combine Overwatcn, the Combine's representative army for Earth. When the portal exploded courtesy of Freeman, his body was never found. Turns out, he was teleported to the Pantheon seconds later.
- When Court of the Gods reviewed him, they offered him a position, but under one condition: He must have his representative army to join him in the Pantheon. That, along with Breen's respect for the Overwatch also led to the Combine's ascension.
- As the former Corporate Leader of Black Mesa, Cave Johnson despises every single bit of him so much. Breen however doesn't think much of him, since Johnson isn't spotted in the Pantheon (despite having a seat). But then again, since Black Mesa and Aperture are competitors ever since, it kinda makes sense why such threat was needed.
- From his experiences with rebellion (due to Freeman's intervention), he has placed every single rebellion master as primary targets. Jim Raynor, Arcturus Mengsk and Lelouch are currently in Breen's shitlist for fitting to his criteria of rebels. He also doesn't stand any form of resistance because for him, it "let's the human mind die slowly, without reaching out the stars", according to his speech.
- Another thing he is known for is his speeches. For once, he actually has a point on his role as a Quisling.
- Out of all those rebellions though, he has complete disdain towards Arcturus for being the proof of why he hates rebels like him. Given Mengsk's title, it kinda makes sense.
- While they are not related, it seems that there are striking similarities with him and Ragyo, if not Distaff Counterparts for some reason. Being collaborators to save something, with Breen for Humanity and Ragyo being for herself, and even taking extreme measures to save it, or face extinction. The only problem is that unlike Ragyo, Breen actually knows what he is doing (though that might be debatable). And like most people, he even doesn't agree with her actions. She may be allies with his army, but she isn't allies with the collaborator himself.
The Combine, The Sufficiently Advanced Alien Race/Army (Our Benefactors, the Universal Union, Combine Overwatch, CMB)
- Leitmotif: "Combine Harvester"
- Estimate reports suggests Demi-deities (for individual troops) to Lesser Deities (for synths, drones and squads). However, as an entire army enslaved with multiple races, they are Greater Armies as a whole.
- Symbol: The Union's "clamp", as shown. (Shared with Breen)
- Alignment: Lawful Evil
- Portfolio: Aliens Are Bastards, Synths, Authority Equals Asskicking, Ended Earth's Forces Under 7 Hours, Surprisingly Smart, A Damn Powerful Army, Wants More Than One Universe, Fascist, but Inefficient, Forgot To Invest For Portals, Greater-Scope Villain, Multiversal Conqueror, The Juggernauts
- Species Who Follow: The Covenant, The Chimera, The Eldar, The Xel'naga
- Allies: Doctor Breen, Ragyo Kiryuin
- Species as Weapons: The Headcrabs
- Enemies: Well, almost everyone are enemies of the Combine, considering how they treat humans as a whole. (well except for Breen, that is)
- In term of specifics: Artanis, Zeratul, Tassadar, Master Chief, Serious Sam, Duke Nukem, Commander Shepard, The Immortal God-Emperor of Mankind
- Number One Threat: Gordon Freeman
- Extreme Rivalries with: The 501st Legion, Sarah Kerrigan, The Daleks (and their Emperor), The Anti-Spiral, Emperor Palpetine
- Interested with: Chell
- When Breen ascended into Pantheon proper, he was given a criteria to follow: bring his collaborated army to qualify for the position of "The Quisling". The Combine, who were preparing the invasion of Earth (again) attempted to use the portal made by the citadel. It was thwarted, but not before the portal ended up appearing in the Pantheon instead. Now that Breen's army has arrived, this has given him a seat in the Pantheon along with the Combine with his command.
- It was also found out that they are "followers" of Master Chief, consideing how similar they are in terms of troop power. They would have gone smoothly, if Chief wasn't antagonized by them since the Covenant are one of the species that are following the Combine.
- As a powerful army who uses other species to gain them ranks for domination, they will use everything they have in order to acquire the planet/species/resources for the empire. Unfortunately, most of these events ends up dead for the enemies of the Combine, which results to acquiring of the planet/stealing resources/getting all the species and turn them into armies.
- This is actually why the Combine are heavily feared. Sheer numbers followed by State-of-the-Art technology is what makes up the Combine Empire. Even worse, since many armies are present in the Pantheon, this will cause extreme amount of wars, and these will be bloody. Just look at the 7 HOUR WAR. Reports have stated that they are currently targeting 3 Armies, The Imperium of Man, The Daleks and The Sith (including the 501st Legion).
- However, the Zerg entered the list when they discovered some ideals of them are identically the same, such as the threat of sheer numbers and utilization of other species. Kerrigan however, expressed that she does not want the Zerg to be part as she knows that she and her kind won't survive a bit if they are to fight a Multiversal Conqueror, who, as an army, just conquered universes.
- Speaking of Starcraft, Artanis, Zeratul and Tassadar are currently in watch of the Combine as they also are targeted by the Union. It even got worse when they noticed how vile they are by using the species they conquered as soldiers or slaves. This did not sit well for the trio. Oh, and to make it worse, the Xel'naga are their following species.
- While Ragyo failed to impress Breen, she did manage to become an ally to the Overwatch. While she has support, what she doesn't know is that the Combine are going to use her just for the Life Fibers. She may not know, but Breen has eveything under his control.
- Much like who they fought in their worlds, Serious Sam and Duke Nukem heavily wants the Combine OUT. Commander Shepard however is forming all his/her crew for a battle that might cost more than just a group, but Humanity as a whole.
- Due to their extensive search for the Borealis, they have placed interest towards Chell for her portal gun. She isn't willing to give to them the gun, which might trigger a forced capture instead.
I don't see why Slowking needs to be the specific individual from Pokemon 2000. Just make it a generic one.
If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with? Granted, he does run 20 km per day, so he is on the right track. He still needs to do the 100 Push-ups, 100 Sit-ups and 100 squats too if he wants to be bald invincible
XCOM would really hate both Breen and The Combine. I also believe the could employ Albert Wesker given how they used the headcrabs as Bio-Weapons

Uni catThat's world is too realistic, you need to do it 100x more
I can now glide everywhere in Tyria. Excuse me while I glide into the wild.
But of course, have Fletcher before I do that. I had one suggestion, but I wasn't sure how to write that.
General Fletcher, God of Tower Defense
- Intermediate God
- Symbol: The Defense Grid icon◊
- Alignment: Lawful Good
- Portfolio: Big Good, Brain Uploading, Cloudcuckoolander, Exposition Fairy, Shell-Shocked Veteran, Loves Raspberries, Nice, Optimistic and Lively Until Angered
- Domains: Defense, Towers, Artificial Intelligence
- Allies: The Machine, Dell Conagher, Good-aligned Defenders of the Ancients, XCOM, Gordon Freeman
- Enemies: GLaDOS, SHODAN, Ex, The Dalek Emperor, The Borg Queen, Frieza, Boros, Headcrabs
- Opposes: Rotom
- Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: GLaDOS
- After a few too many incidents of alien invasions and space pirates, the Main House decided that enough was enough and looked for ways to at least make them less of an annoyance to deal with. They found their answer in the form of the Defense Grid, a planetary defense system meant to repel alien invasions with a variety of towers. Coming along with the Grid was General Fletcher, an AI with quite a cheerful personality.
- A thousand years ago, General Fletcher beat back the attacking aliens using the Defense Grid. After the war, Fletcher's brain was uploaded into the planetary defense grid in case the aliens ever returned. Which they did. Now helping out the player character, they both fight to re-awaken the grid and save humanity from the aliens with the use of towers.
- As the AI in charge of the grid, Fletcher also serves as a helper to deities who wants to try Tower Defense themselves. He will take care of the boring parts of the job (salvaging and gathering resources) while they place, upgrade and sell towers.
- Shows up in the Field of the Ancients as an announcer, commentating on what happens in the battles. The heroes reportedly likes to hear him cheer them on.
- Once he and his friend got tied up in GLaDOS' tests, with Fletcher unable to help the player out until he got out to save his friend from an unwinnable situation, to which GLaDOS retaliated by opening a portal to the aliens. With cunning and trickery however, General Fletcher tricked the hostile AI and managed to shut her down for good. GLaDOS is still unhappy about that.
- When he learned that the headcrabs exists in the same universe as GLaDOS, he started to come up with ideas as to how to deal with them just in case she would attempt to get her revenge by using headcrabs. General Fletcher didn't hesitate to ask Gordon Freeman for guidance in this regard.
- Through the Pantheon, Fletcher was horrified to learn about SHODAN and her actions. His thoughts on SHODAN? "She (GLaDOS) was frustrating enough to deal with, but she makes her look tolerable by comparison!"
- Gets along with The Machine for being a fellow benevolent AI. General Fletcher himself laments that friendly A.I.s are a rarity these days.
- Once upon a time Rotom got loose in the Defense Grid, causing a massive amount of havoc on Fletcher's end. Ever since that, General Fletcher has made sure to improve the security system so that Rotom will be less likely to create chaos.
- With Dell Conagher able to build strong turrets and General Fletcher able to set up good defenses, it wasn't a surprise that they got reasonably well along. The AI has been warned by the engineer to not trust The Spy.
- Because of his experience with defense, he has been assigned to take care of the Pantheon's Treasury alongside GLaDOS and The Machine. While he's happy to be working together with The Machine, he's not so pleased about the GLaDOS part.
- Has developed a working partnership with XCOM over their shared interest in thwarting alien invasions.
- He is in direct opposition against every alien deity who frequently invades Earth and other planets, such as the Dalek Emperor and Boros. He's not fond of headcrabs either, since they tend to be used for invasions as well. Note that he is fine with benevolent aliens.

Fair enough. Though i wonder if Ikki would pick up Saitama's and Genos' running activity◊ (I never get tired of that image)
Question, what is the main defense in his game? Turrets or other things?

Uni cat@Fletcher: How would he feel about Dessler, since he attacked Earth at one point to colonize it, but after a Heel Realization became one of its greatest allies?
@Combine: Possible enemies with Dessler and DEFINITE enemies with Okita. Reasoning: Dessler was the leader of, then served a race of Sufficiently Advanced Aliens.
There's machine gun turrets, flamethrower turrets, laser turrets, slows-enemies-in-an-aoe turrets, very long range multi-target bomb turrets, long range single-target cannon turrets, throws-explosives-everywhere turrets, anti-air turrets, slowly-charges-up-then-releases-massive-electrical-damage-when-something-comes-near turrets, true sight turrets (that gives bonus resources when aliens are killed in the range).
Also, orbital bombardment satellite.

Golly that's a lot of turrets!
Engineer should be possible allies with him. Besides The TF2 Engie, there is Isaac Clarke. Gotta think of more possibilities

Uni catx3 So does the world revolve around this Dessler fellow?
Continue the bloodline, Fujimaru! Well, he was the Big Bad in the first series. Then he turned into The Dragon in the second after everyone thought that he died at the end of series 1. Then he became an ally that helped the humans when they needed it the most.
So it would seem that way, wouldn't it?

Suck it, troper!3 days, I think, and still have 2 for Dalmatians.
Pongo and Perdita, God and Goddess of Pet Perspective
- Quasideities
- Symbol: Red and blue collars and dalmatians' spots
- Alignment: Neutral Good
- Portfolio: Happily Married, cute dogs but aggressive when their puppies are in danger, The fun-loving, laid-back father to stern and elegant mother, Papa Wolf and Mama Bear (both), The Matchmaker (Pongo), Combined role with Missis, True Blue Femininity (Perdita)
- Domains: Dogs, Perspective
- Allies: Lady and Tramp, Pluto, Jake the Dog, Clifford, Hachiko, Krypto Courage, Snoopy, Scooby-Doo, Sora, Minato Namikaze, Kushina Uzumaki, Nanoha Takamachi
- Enemies: Maleficent, Master Xehanort, Mr. Burns, Napoleon
- They have fifteen Dalmatian puppies initially, however, at the end of their journey, they ended up adopting 84 other puppies, leaving that and themselves 101 Dalmatians. Some who were ignorant of the journey thought that they really had 99 puppies, in which Pongo received "Oh ho, Pongo, you rascal!" which is the same how his pet Roger responded to the number of Dalmatians.
- Of their puppies, the named ones includes Patch, Rolly, Pepper, Lucky, Penny, Cadpig, Freckles, and that just to name a few out of 84 dalmatian puppies.
- The fact that they were willing to adopt the puppies that they saved from Cruella gives them a favor from other deities who happily adopted children like Nanoha. Even Superman, Krypto's "pet", is impressed with the dogs as he too was adopted and looked at how he turned out.
- The two would sometimes would go for the Twilight Bark every night as it is a gossip chain for all dogs.
- Beware those who ever harm their puppies, they are very aggressive as seen when they saved their puppies and the other puppies from Jasper and Horace. And the two would not show any mercy if Napoleon ever touches their puppies.
- The two thanked Sora for saving all 99 of their puppies and after he sealed Kingdom Hearts, they return back to their world with the puppies.
- They hate Mr. Burns given that he had a similar plight to Cruella DeVil.
- Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumake both respect these hounds for trying to rescue their pups.
- It is joked that the two are living with firemen since they were looking for dalmatians to be their mascots. Both were offered but declined since they were not interested in fire fighting and they only risked their lives to save their puppies.
@Dessler: That's what I wasn't sure about how to write it.
In regards to General Fletcher, are there deities who has encountered special cases of Brain Uploading?
Scissors and a ruler....maybe Ryuko? If that's true then she will have a lot of trouble (Bayonetta is stupidly powerful)
That said, i think there are a few gods in Reworking Gods that should be deleted. I'm going to bring them up in a moment
edited 26th Jan '16 1:14:43 PM by fasoman1996
Uni catI'm thinking Ryuko Matoi. Which I hope it isn't since I rather save that for Ryuko and Satsuki vs Panty and Stocking.
I actually added that Scissor Blades are able to cut the hairs of Bayonetta. So it be HIH for me.

Would 1v2 be unfair? I mean, what can Senketsu do on his own, bite people's ankles?
I also feel like Pending Gods pages would need checking if there is anything to be cleared out.
Continue the bloodline, Fujimaru!Well, this are the ones that have been the most time sitting there without doing anything. In any case if nobody wants to work them, i say ditch them

- Followers: ...All right, he does have several, but the one an observer sees first is always that weird stumpy hermit guy with a big hat, a loincloth, and nothing else.
- Tends to get into a LOT of arguments with the other gods, partially because most in the houses believe we make our own fate. He tends to get into daily fights with Kane, which usually ends in disintegration (though who gets disintegrated varies).

- Enemies: Damn near every Changeling that's escaped from them.
- Joined the pantheon purely on a whim.
- Don't bring up Changeling The Dreaming in their presence. Maybe it offends them, maybe they love hearing about it and want to keep anyone who speaks of it around forever and ever and ever, or maybe they couldn't care less, and something else entirely compels them—but no matter the reason, you'll never be heard from again.
- Have several branch clans that aren't formally part of the group, but they still keep in touch with. One clan spends its time trying to invade The Disc, and another lives in a fairyland just off of New Earth of the DC multiverse. They are, however, most emphatically not cousins of the elves of Arda, and strange things happen to people who make that assumption.

- Allies: Ranma Saotome, Ryoutaro Nogami/Kamen Rider Den-O.
- The original holder of the title, Waspinator, ended up on The Fallen for getting constantly killed and then depowered to the Mortal Realm, so the Court of the Gods put Kimihiro as his replacement.
- While Watanuki officially showed up in the heavens alongside Yuuko, the gods for the most part saw him little less than her personal slave and boy toy before she finally convinced them to give him his own position — which primarily involves being every god's slave and boy toy. Watanuki was not (and still isn't) amused.
@Ikki So i got around learning more about his power-up in volume 9. Apparently, his brother told him that any persons magic is tied on how they can change fate (or something like that). Basically, he is destined to be week. In his battle against stella, he was slowly overwhelmed by her because he already used Itto Shura and fate indirectly hampered him. By sheer force of will he breaks these "restraints" and becomes "awakened", essentially allowing him to enter Itto Ratetsu and defeat Stella.
So yeah, basically Ikki went full Saitama and broke his limit. Now i would legitimately make them allies
Man and i thought Ikki was going to be your generic "Kirito 2.0". This man surprises me every day.
