Trope Pantheons Discussion

Go To

Welcome to the Trope Pantheons thread! Please read the rules:

    Rules 
Rules. The following are not suggestions or tips, but things that have to be followed:
  • 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 [tup] means the profile will have a one week waiting period.
      • For new and reworked deities, 4 [tup] is a 3 day waiting period.
      • 5 [tup] 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 [tup] is a 3 day waiting period.
      • 4 [tup] 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.

    Instructions and Tips 
Here are some tips one should keep in mind when editing:

  • 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.
  • 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.

    Divine Ranking System 
  • 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.

    Templates 
Template for adding a new deity:

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.

[up][up] And the entire living Gods as well.

Because it was down

So guys, I'm wondering if I can do a group profile for Andy Taylor and Barney Fife but have them have different tropes , The Sheriff and Clueless Deputy. I feel that the profile would work better as a group as they mention each other.

As I mentioned yesterday, I did a lookthrough of the House of Love and here's some of the issues here. Keep in mind it's not all of them, though.

Title issues

  • Belial & Nebiros have Happily Adopted. So does Yui from SAO, unless it's done differently: the demons cover adoptive parents and Yui covers adopted children.
  • Hinata Hyuuga has Fan of Underdog. Trope page says it's subverted and I don't know what else there is for her.
  • Mai Tokiha has All-Loving Hero and The Caretaker. Former is taken by KR Kuuga and latter taken by Hawke. Don't know who should keep The Caretaker (and Hawke's profile is merely so-so).
  • Bayonetta has Fetish Fuel. I think we talked about giving her a different, but I think we came into agreement on what she could get; only that her title could be changed.
  • Both Mad Moxxi and Charlie Harper have Really Gets Around. Did we ever agree that this was going to be a case where it would be appropriate to have god and goddess of that trope or not because I don't remember.
  • Chaos from Heaven's Lost Property has Love Freak and Cute and Psycho, which are taken by Flonne and Nui Harime, respectively. Chaos' profile isn't that good as well and I think she should be deleted.
  • Akio Ohtori is tropeless. Does anyone remember Revolutionary Girl Utena, because if not, he'll be gone.
  • Shizuru Fujino has Love Makes You Crazy and Love Makes You Evil. Former is taken by Wander from Shadow of the Colossus (didn't we talk about giving him Colossus Climb?) and latter taken by Gabriel Belmont.

Bareboned and should be deleted

  • Miaka Yuuki, Admiral ZEX, Isabella Garcia-Shapiro, Masaya Aoyama, Michael Garret & Fasalina

Other

  • I don't really understand this whole "runner-up" thing regarding The Masochism Tango. I'll probably delete that if no one minds.
  • I think Jerry Springer, who has Guilty Pleasure and Point-and-Laugh Show, should be moved to Theater.
  • Rushuna Tendo is tropeless. I don't know if someone here knows Grenadier, but she might be deleted if no one is willing to rework her.
  • Shouldn't the Companion Cube be placed somewhere else? It could also be reworked.
  • We talked about giving Sniper Wolf Cold Sniper (or more accurately, take that trope from Neil Dylandy). Was that going to happen?
  • Ditto has Extreme Omnisexual. There were talks about changing it to Ditto Fighter and giving Dural (who holds Ditto Fighter at the moment) Mirror Boss. Again, would that be possible or not?
  • Edward Scissorhands has The Grotesque. I think it should be moved somewhere else. Also does someone else have that trope or not?
  • Sasami Masaki Jurai has Fan-Preferred Couple. I don't know about you, but I think it should go to an actual fan-preferred pairing (if it's possible that is).
  • Kaorin & Nina Einstein share a profile with All Love Is Unrequited and Schoolgirl Lesbians; the latter of which is taken by the Haruka Takayama & Yuu Sonoda. Wasn't there a plan to do something about that?

Any thoughts here?

[up]He's in Ambiguity for some reason, and also, how has he not been given that trope. Also, he could do a little rework.

Also, since I doing Zagara, was there someone who was going to bring in Broodmother from DOTA? Because in the original DOTA, she was Anub'arak's lover and it'll be funny of a Love Triangle between her, Zagara, and Anub'arak. (What the fuck am I even thinking.)

[up][up]

  • Happily Adopted: I think it is allowed if the trope tackles two sides (Like i stated with Medivh for Demonic Possession but i droped it). I think they are fine that way.
  • Hinata: I believe she was going to be given Devoted to You. Change her to that if it's available
  • Mai: No idea
  • Bayonetta: If i knew the exact problem with her trope then i could give you an alternative. For now leave her there.
  • Moxxi-Charlie: Maybe the rare case of Male-Female example? The Casanova could be an alternative (If Free)
  • Chaos: Meh, do what you want
  • Akio: Leave him one week in Reworking Gods. If nobody picks him up then he will be deleted.
  • Shizure: Leave her with the former.
  • Bareboned: Ditch them.
  • Runner up: Delete that
  • Jerry: Move him
  • Rushuna: Ditto akio.
  • Companion Cube: Move him to Friendship?

Also, with the Pikmins in Nature, that's one more plant creature in the House of Plants. Considering that Mordremoth is sometimes called dad dragon, it's not hard to imagine it as one big messed up family [lol]

Lock@ Breaking it down.

  • Leave Miaka and Garrett and Fasalina be, I can add a bit to them. As well as Akio.
  • Magic Hair can be given to Bayonetta.
  • Sasami is being reworked with the other characters from Tenchi Muyo.
  • Mai Tokiha might either get a new trope or keep The Caretaker.
  • Hinata is getting Devoted to You. Going to rework her a bit.

Dr. Wallace Breen, God of Quislings (Breen, Dr. Breen, the Administrator)

—> Breen: Tell me, (name), if you can: you have destroyed so much. What is it, exactly, that you have created? Can you name even one thing? I thought not.
  • 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.
  • Has recently made deals with Albert Wesker to give aid in controlling humanity using the T-Virus. While he has accepted the offer, Breen has to keep an eye out for him, since he's pretty clear that Wesker will take over the Combine and use them for COMPLETE. GLOBAL. SATURATION!
    • The entire XCOM members literally have no contempt for Breen, seeing him as a reminder of ADVENT and EXALTED, two human groups working for the aliens. Breen said that he is different from those two groups because he isn't joining for their own selfish ways, but rather save humanity, but that doesn't excuse him from implementing harsh ways to save them. Let's just say that XCOM will be targeting Breen first.
    • And it looks like Breen has some company, Commander Farsight, Dessler and Okita have also placed him as his enemy, with the former targeting the Imperium of Man, and the latter two just because he has commanded hostile aliens.
  • For someone who installed the Suppresion Field just to halt human reproduction, this insulted a huge majority of the House of Family. Many deities especially from the Children subhouse are offended for his objective even with this reasons.
  • Has recently made some collaborative meetings with Frieza and Boros just to strengthen the Combine's army power. This has gotten Goku and Saitama's attention rather fast.
    • Cooler on the other hand, while recruited into Combine ranks, opposes Breen for, well bringing his brother. After all, Frieza still hates his brother.

The Combine, The Sufficiently Advanced Alien Race/Army (Our Benefactors, the Universal Union, Combine Overwatch, CMB)

—> Metrocop: Pick up that can!
  • 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.
    • And this is why XCOM became the Combine's persistent threat. Even with few numbers and technology, they still have a chance to go head-to-head with them thanks to the research efforts made by Dr. Vahlen. However, they do not still know about the Advisors.
  • While Ragyo failed to impress Breen, she did manage to become an ally to the Overwatch. She may have support, but she doesn't know that the Combine are going to use her just for the Life Fibers. She may not know, but Breen has eveything under his control.
    • This is also the same situation with Albert Wesker. He may be glad that he is working witn the Combine for chemical reasons, but that doesn't mean they are full-fledged allies.
  • Much like who they fought in their worlds, Serious Sam and Duke Nukem heavily wants the Combine OUT because they know the Combine is much worse. 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.
    • The Combine have also started making "collaborations" with 3 other conquerors, namely Boros, Frieza and Cooler. No one knows how they got into each other but it might be said that Breen was pulling the strings just for this to happen.

@faso: As far as I know regarding Bayo, there were a bit of concerns about her having Fetish Fuel (it's a YMMV thing for one). There were options suggested, including the aforementioned Magic Hair. I remember someone suggesting Innuendo Tropes for Bayo one time. As for The Casanova, n3xus has that reserved for Paptimus Scirocco.

In any case, I'll probably do the aforementioned things in a bit, though regarding Wander, if anyone knows Shadow of the Colossus, then they can rework him for Colossus Climb if they want.

I just deleted the runner-up bit on the Love front-page, for one.

Here's Ikki's final draft who I will ascend later
Ikki Kurogane, The God who Fights Like a Normal (The Worst One/Failure Knight, Another One/Uncrowned Sword King, Kuro-bou)

  • Lesser god (Intermediate God while using Itto Shura)
  • Theme Song: Identity
  • Symbol: His sword Intetsu
  • Alignment: Neutral Good
  • Portfolio: Being one of the strongest blazers despite being an F rank, Master Swordsman, Multi-Melee Master,Determinator, Going Through Intense Training In Order To Better Himself Black Sheep, Iron Woobie, Itto Shura/Itto Rasetsu
  • Allies: Stella Vermillion (His girlfriend/fiancé), Rock Lee, Naruto Uzumaki, Touma Kamijou, Kenichi Shirahama, Zuko, Benkei and Shigure Kosaka, Hinata Hyuuga, Iroh
  • Friendly Rivals: Kazuto "Kirito" Kirgaya, Yuuki
  • Rivals: Kenpachi Zaraki, Jetstream Sam
  • Enemies: Ghetsis, Relius Clover, Atoko, Nobuyuki Sugou
  • Uneasy relationship with: Satan Jacob, Vali Lucifer
  • He was thought to be the weakest blazers at Hagun Academy. As he is the only F-ranked Blazer. He first gained notoriety after crushing the Hunter a blazer who a Long-Range Fighter with Invisibility. He gains even more notoriety after defeating Touka Todo better known as Raikiri in a Single-Stroke Battle despite the latter being exceptionally skilled at iaijutsu.
  • He also ascended to join his beloved Stella.
  • His ascension came after the fact that his special ability, Itto Shura is Explosive Overclocking which he can only once per day for about a minute also it leaves him extremely fatigued afterwards. He also has a more powerful version call the Itto Rasetsu which allows him to concentrate his power in a single blow. However after using this technique he was bedridden for a full week. It should be noted that this was after he was drugged and tortured by his father's goons.
  • He's befriended Naruto, as the god of determination. They found a common ground in how they won't allow anything to stop them from accomplishing their goals.
  • He wants the acknowledgement of his father. Unfortunately, he'll never get to due his father philosophy. He befriended Zuko, who went through similar circumstances. As he too was exiled by his father and Shinji who like him will also never get his father's approval. Not to mention having an evil sibling. Zuko later introduce him to his uncle Iroh. Ikki notes that Iroh reminds him of his grandfather with him being powerful and kind.
    • He's befriended Hinata Hyuuga as she too was viewed as a failure. She sympathizes with him as his father isn't as understanding as hers is.
  • During one of his training he encountered and later befriended Rock Lee, who also lacks the ability is also a bit of a anomaly. He can be often seen sparring with his new friend in order to make sure their bodies are in tip top shape. Also he's rather skeptical to wear the might suit that Lee gave him.
  • He doesn't know what to make of Vali and Satan despite the fact that they sound similar.
  • He's befriended Touma thanks to their similar bad luck and both are essentially Almighty Janitor due their abilities not be properly measured. As well as their determination.
  • He's also form a friendship with Kenichi, who also went through Training from Hell in order to become stronger despite their lack of talent. Kenichi's jealous of him and his relationship with Stella. As he knows he can't move forward with his relationship with Miu because of the latter's grandfather who he has to defeat and let's just say that isn't a easy task.
  • He can be seen training with Kirito. They were both thinking of introducing their girlfriend in a potential couple sparring. Intially he was worried because he initially confused him for Kirihara because they sounds similar. After hearing about Sugou from him he's gain a dislike for the finding him to be cowardly scum.
  • He's impressed the likes of Shigure and Benkei with his mastery of various weapons and on occasions gave him advice to further improve his training.
  • He has an ability call Blade Steal which allows him to see an opponent's technique and replicate it. Though some are immediate other take time and occasions he can replicate a technique he never saw before.
  • He surprised people how quickly his relationship with Stella went. Compare to most of the wishy-washy guys in the pantheon. They tend to further their progress with every major tournament battle he wins. After he defeated The Hunter, he confessed and they started dating. His successful victory over Tohka, he proposed to her and she accepted and after their fight at the finals they did the deed. He made a few people jealous because of this. He's also attracted the likes of Atoko who plans on breaking them just because.
  • As a skilled swordsmen, he has created a seven original techniques. He has only revealed six of them and each are as impressive as the last.
  • He has garnered the attention of Kenpachi and Jetstream Sam. After hearing about his exploits especially after facing the strongest swordsman, Edelwiss and surviving. Sam is especially interested to see if his quick draw is faster than Ikki's Itto Rasetsu after hearing how he defeated Raikiri in a Single-Stroke Battle. Even more so after hearing how he was drugged and mentally fatigued at the time.
  • It should go without saying but you shouldn't harm Stella. One unfortunate soul did that and well he lost his hands.

[up] Remember, Stella is ascended (Altough i wonder if Cursed with Awesome can be considered a trope for Power Levels and Appearance)

So, Rayman's old trope got renamed to Floating Limbs. Rayman was being reworked right?

@faso: I'm reworking Rayman at the moment.

I went through Passion and changed Hinata's title to Devoted to You, moved Jerry Springer to Theater Intermediate Gods, and Rushuna Tendo to Reworking Gods (she'll be deleted in a week or so if no one picks her up).

I just deleted Chaos and Admiral Zex from Lust.

Isabella Garcia-Shaprio and Masaya Aoyama are deleted from Romance.

Ok, after checking This Index Has Magic Properties, i think a house of "Magical Items" can be made.

Here are the potential candidates: Shinnok, Gul'dan, Majora, Soul Edge, Kiki, Kisuke Uzuki, Kei Shirogane, The Weird Sisters, Rom and Ram, Kokonoe A. Mercury, The Toa Nuva, Haru Glory, Azrael, Zeref.

There were more possibilities, but the respective profiles describe in a way that doesn't fit the house

Possibly this will become "Magic Mixed 2.0"

@faso: Fair enough.

Any idea where Colossus Climb would go? I was just going to move Wander somewhere with that title before removing Love Makes You Evil from Shizuru.

Unrelated, but any issues if I decide to write PNF-404 (the Pikmin Planet) for the Dominions under Earth That Was?
