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.

Welp, since i found no traces of anyone planing to use the Toontown trope, and i've been told that both a domain and a deity can share tropes, here the draft. Just tell me "No, this is stupid" and i won't bother you with it anymore. Sorry if i did anything wrong.

The Toons, Denizens of the Toontown (Those pesky toons)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/temporaire_toons.jpg
  • Rank: Lesser gods and goddesses
  • Symbol: The word « Toontown », with cartoon eyes in the first two Os, and a gear in the third one.
  • Theme Song: Toontown – Toon selection
  • Alignment: Chaotic Good
  • Portfolio: Living in a city of cartoons, Fun Personified, Using pies as a weapon, Weak when sad, Great fashion sense, Animal looking humanoids, Quite durable.
  • Domains: Fun, Toon Physics, Friendship, Teamwork, Trickery
  • Allies: Every Hope Bringer in the pantheon, All good aligned disney deities, Sora, Bugs Bunny, Roger Rabbit.
  • Rivals: Members of the Pantheon that are rivals.
  • Enemies: Monokuma and his Mastermind, Trollkaiger, Dr. Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik.
  • Opposes: Anyone who dismisses fun as "Pointless".
  • Fears : The Joker
  • All of them arrived on the pantheon by jumping out of a hole in the ground. It turns out that this hole was one of their Portable Holes that somehow led to the pantheon.
    • Shortly after arriving, they where followed by business obsessed robots named Cogs who tried to ruin everyone's day. After witnessing the toons prank the cogs until they literaly blew up out of frustration, and being told that they lived in a town where this is an everyday occurence, the Main House decided to give the Toons a spot in the house of Craft.
  • Toons can be stomped by a hydraulic press and come out unharmed, but flat. This is still painful however, and they obviously don't like that.
    • While they are virtually unkillable, they simply cannot live without joy, and being sad is very harmful to them. Because of this, anyone expert in Breaking Speeches isn't allowed anywhere near their house, and will get a faceful of pie if seen by them.
  • They are all absolutely TERRIFIED by The Joker. Causing harm with pranks is a completely eldritch concept to them, and don't even bring up the subject of the laughing gas to them, you will instantly make a few of them go sad out of sheer horror.
  • Every now and then, the entire House of Craft will suddenly be swarming with cogs of a specific type. During these cog invasions, the toons are surprisingly eager to battle with them, as anyone fighting during the invasion trains twice as fast. Han Jee-Han is often seen training his skills along with the toons when that happens.
  • They were absolutely ecstatic when they reunited with the good disney deities, since they used to walk in Toontown's playgrounds in the past, and Goofy is the one who supplies them with gags.
  • When they learned that Sora befriended Mickey, Donald, and Goofy, they promised to help him when needed, by giving him SOS Cards to call them. It turns out that dropping pianos on the heartless works very well.
  • Don't mistake their Toontown with the other Toontown, even if they would feel right at home there.
  • Due to their previous experiences with the Cogs, they avoid the House of Technology like the plague. Because of this, almost everything in Toontown runs on pure nonsense and Toon Physics.
  • Dr. Eggman was recently seen trying to steal the blueprints of multiple cogs for his personal robot army. One anvil to the head later, he quickly decided to stick to the usual Badnicks.

Reposting for Jax one more time before moving on. I'll probably work on Captain Haddock as well as use someone's suggestion of Tintin for Implied Professions.

Jax God of Unconventionally Lethal Weapons (Grandmaster at Arms, the Jolly Gladiator)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jax_originalloading.jpg
  • Lesser God (Intermediate with an actual weapon)
  • Symbol: A lamp post
  • Alignment: Lawful Good
  • Portfolio: The Ace, Badass Baritone, Boring, but Practical, Cherry Tapping, Counter-Attack, The Faceless, Game-Breaker, Improbable Weapon User, Lethal Joke Item, Mysterious Past, Smug Super
  • Domains: Combat, War, Law, Good, Strength
  • Allies: Jackie Chan, Leonidas, Musashibo Benkei
  • Rivals: The Defenders of the Ancients, Heishiro Mitsurugi
  • Worthy Opponents: Kenpachi Zaraki, Akuma
  • Enemies: Lester/Bullseye
  • Unknown Rival: Fiora
  • Not To Be Confused With: Jax
  • There was an interesting turn of evens in the latest feud between the Champions and the Ancients. Those of the Summoner's Rift introduced a new fighter into the fight: a gladiator covered from head to toe in armor. Not that impressive... that is until he single-handedly wiped the floor with the enemy team. The Defenders of the Ancients call foul, and the Court of the Gods were in agreement. Turns out that this man didn't even have a temple of his own. The man had a counterproposal; if he only uses mundane weapons such as his signature lamp post, he will enter the Pantheon as such. The Courts agreed, sending him in the House of Weapons.
    • His final test before ascension was to survive a fight with Benkei, his initial patron. The battle was tense, lasting several minutes with neither side backing down. Eventually, Benkei stopped fighting and smiled. His pupil was ready, and with that he personally ascended Jax into the Pantheon, even helping him built his temple. Nowadays, Jax lets him borrow weapons he don't use.
    • Many deities became terrors in a game due to inadequacies from their creators. Jax became one In-Universe. Indeed, Jax only uses mundane weapons for his enjoyment as well as staying in the Pantheon. When he does use an actual weapon...
    • Once there, Jax was immediately challenged by Fiora once more. She has eagerly awaited a rematch between the two. She was soundly defeated, but the latest lost has motivated her to continue her training. One day, she can lay claim to the title as the best duelist in the Pantheon.
  • He has been seen using other odd weapons, such as fighting rods, a spatula and a chicken's foot. Most items that appear to be weapons were actually props. Doesn't prevent him from kicking any more ass than he usually does. Jax merely brushed it off as usual, not even considering calling what he has with Fiora as a 'rivalry'.
  • To his disappointment, Gragas has yet to ascend into the Pantheon. Jax hopes that he can help his friend achieve this goal in the near future.
  • There have been many who challenged the man. Blood Knights who heard of his exploits rose to take him on. So far, no one has had much luck:
    • Mitsuguri was the first on the scene, demanding to bring out an actual weapon to the fight. Jax complied... and promptly ended the fight. The Rōnin now has a new rival to train against.
    • Was met with the God of Blood Knights himself, Kenpachi. The fight that followed was intense, with onlookers declaring it a draw. Kenpachi will likely be asking for more rematches to come.
    • Jax has no qualms fighting against Bullseye. He feels disgusted with all the lives he have taken. Bullseye awaits the challenge with another known for mundane weapons.
    • The demon Akuma also started a brawl. That one was cut short when the Raging Demon unleashed his Oni form, prompting the entire House of Power to take him down.
  • No one has been more impressed with his improvised weaponry than Jackie Chan. Jax himself humbles himself before the man, as Chan may well be the one person who is more feared than him in the Pantheon. Any fight with these two will likely end with the entire Pantheon in ruins.
  • Finds it amusing that there was another Jax in the Pantheon, one with a completely different moveset. The Jax of Mortal Kombat fame is just glad that swordsmen can stop bothering him about asking for a fight. The two Jaxs don't mind the others' company, actually. That and they enjoy to trash talk their opponents.
  • Gained an ally in the form of Leonidas. Though few believe Jax is of Greek origin, the spartan was most impressed with his combat prowess, even when without an actual weapon. He has put Jax in charge of training his followers on how to master Improvised Weapons.
  • ->"Let's do this."

@Whirl: I'm aware that Picard's title was based on a meme. I'm just wondering if there's someone in the forum that can update the Star Trek profiles (and I'm still trying to figure out what trope was proposed to be Picard's new title).

@mvs: I'm OK with the suggestion.

@Patrick: I did have Tintin for The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything, but I guess you can use it (it was an adoptable anyways, but the fact that adoptables are divisive around here made me wonder if I should just make it myself; then again, I didn't get anywhere with the idea).

@ Patrickthekid: Aren't you viable for ascending Jax and Enigma already? Also, I'm pretty sure I gave you a vote

Are Wyald and Mongul ready?

Wyald, Official God of Stupid Evil

Mongul, God of Secondary Color Villains

  • Votes: 2
  • Date of ascension: 30 July
  • House: Villainous Appearances
  • Greater God
  • Symbol: Warworld
  • Alignment: Lawful Evil
  • Portfolio: Galactic Conqueror, Bald of Evil, Really Tough, Smug But With Power To Back It Up, Power For Power, Secondary Color Nemesis, Bloodsport, Unpopular Leaders, The Black Mercy, Family Slayings, Pride, Psychological Sadist, Evil Is Bigger
  • Domains: Conquest, Gladiators, Supervillains, Aliens
  • Followers: Arnim Zola, The Parasite, Gruntilda
  • Allies: Lex Luthor, Vril Dox, Babidi, Jabba the Hutt, Gleeman Vox, Metal Face, Sosuke Aizen, Jervis Tetch, Gregor Clegane
  • Rivals: Darkseid, Thanos, Palpatine, Frieza, Wizard and Boomstick
  • Enemies: Superman, HAL JORDAN, Odysseus, Maximus Decimus Meridius, Supergirl, Lois Lane, The Justice League of America, Thaal Sinestro, Samurai Jack, Oberyn Martell, Arael, Kyubey
  • Opposed by: The House of Combat, Gaming and Plants
  • On a distant world, Mongul ruled as the tyrannical dictator of his world. Eventually he would be outsed for his cruelty, and would wander the universe for years. Eventually managing to take over the mechanical planet of Warworld, Mongul would continue his dictatorship unopposed until an encounter with the Man of Steel. A yellow-skinned goliath with regal purple clothing, Mongul only felt it right to invade the Trope Pantheon and declare himself a god.
  • Hal Jordan DESPISES Mongul. With help from the Cyborg Superman, Mongul incinerated his home of Coast City. Mongul assumed that he had little to worry about as the Green Lantern rings can't affect yellow, however he was proven dead wrong. Mongul's made sure not to make the same mistake again, being informed the rings are no longer weak to yellow.
    • While it's mainly his son's endeavors, the elder Mongul is interested in taking control of the Sinestro Corps. Seeing what happened to his son however, he's currently trying to reprogram a stolen Yellow ring so as to remove the programming that allowed Sinestro to imprison the younger Mongul.
    • Out of mutual hatred for the Man of Steel, Mongul is willing to team up with Lex Luthor and Brainiac. He's also gotten the help of fellow evil alien Jabba the Hutt, whom has become even richer from the entertainment of his blood sports.
  • In order to keep his subjects content with his despotism, Mongul utilizes his favorite sport of Gladiator Games. Superman enmity with the tyrant began when he was captured into Warworld, and greatly angered the tyrant by sparing those who lost. This M.O led him to seek out Gleeman Vox, whom with Babidi's help has set up the Warworld Gladiator's Pet. Together, the three hope to kidnap worthy fighters to entertain the masses, while he uses it as a distraction to take over the pantheon.
    • Currently has managed to get Gregor Clegane and Metal Face on his payroll of brutes, promising the former a do-over trial by combat against Oberyn Martell. He also once kidnapped Samurai Jack for the "mystique" of a man out of his time, but he also screwed up Mongul's plans by refusing to kill. He's also on the House of Combat's shit list for trying to kidnap members there into his bloodsports.
    • Mongul considers Wiz and Boomstick's success to be mystifying. Superman vs Goku? Darth Vader vs Doctor Doom? The alien despot wishes to know their success, and considers them his greatest rival as of yet.
  • Mongul is one of a handful of greater gods physically stronger as Superman, however his most powerful weapon is arguably his signature plant; the Black Mercy. A Lotus-Eater Machine, it creates an ideal fantasy world for the person it latches onto, with tearing it off as painful as tearing off one's limb. For Superman this was being a family man on Krypton, for Batman it was his family surviving and for Mongul himself it was ruling the universe. Having experience this before, Odysseus hates Mongul.
    • Mongul is on the House of Plants' shit-list for trying to plant a bunch of Black Mercy seeds throughout it. Mordremoth has sworn to devour the despot if he ever tires that shit again.
    • The Black Mercy isn't the original invention of Mongul, but rather creations of Mother Mercy. They were meant to cure pain and fear, not for evil intentions, and as a Green Lantern hopes to get back at the tyrant. Whenever his sadism or anger is peaked, Mongul utilizes a modified Black Mercy that traps someone in their deepest nightmares.
  • In the pantheon, Mongul has expressed interest in other means of Mind Rape and Mind Manipulation, which led him to get on with Aizen and the Mad Hatter. He also tried to capture and harness Arael's Mind Rape abilities to psychological destroy his enemies, but that backfired and suffered a Psychological Torment Zone for a while.
  • Mongul has a strong rivalry with Thanos and Darkseid, whom he bears many in common with them. Darkseid impressed, considering him his Poor Man's Substitute. Thanos is dismissive as well, but does recognize Mongul as a potential threat. Interestingly, Mongul has never butted heads with Darkseid himself, and even admits that "I admire your work, Dark God of Apokolips."
    • You can also find Mongul butting heads with Frieza, while Palpatine tries to steal Warworld for himself.
  • Mongul's pride refuses to accept any devil deals, and will attack those who suggest them. This ended badly the first time. The second time he punched Kyubey in the face, which a number of gods found cathartic.
    • Banned from the House of Gaming for trying to use it to take over the Pantheon.

@shatterstar: Her Heart Will Go On can be placed in Romance and it can also be placed in Life And Death (though I don't know which subhouse it will go to).

Rich Suitor, Poor Suitor can be placed in Romance as well as Commerce.

Not done with this, but I remember that someone had a problem with this profile. I think it was the trope they had a problem with. What is the problem with it?

  • Conflicting Opinion: Sometimes, the Deities argue over specific themes and philosophies.
  • High Priest: Non-ascended, but loyal character that would make a worthy replacement in case something would happen. Also can be served as part-time worker in case the originals are busy with some jobs. Co-Godhood is accepted depending on the approval of the originals.

Should I add the GUAG Sacred Knights under "Distrusted by:" for Escavlier? Add other ninjas as allies for Accelgor?

I think faso's high standards for nine texts is a tad excessive. For one, if that standard was set a few years ago, the Inspector from Papers, Please wouldn't make it at all since he has little characterization and thus can't be involved much with others. Of course, this isn't a valid enough argument, and there are other tropers one could seek the approval of that can override faso's [tdown]. I still think they're cool.

@Nightelf It's not excesive, you just suck at making profiles

Look at Gnome Chompsky. That thing has no personality, yet has 11 flavour texts

You don't need to listen to me. I'm just saying that the profile could need more polish

Also, here is Morgl. A minor character at best and i already managed to write 5 text for him.

Morgl the Oracle, God of Unexpected Additions (Morgl, The Great Oracle, The Shaman (and variants of that name))

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/morgl_the_oracle.jpg
  • Intermediate God
  • Symbol: His staff, with small fishes inside
  • Alignment: True Neutral
  • Theme Song: His theme
  • Portfolio: Murloc, Making a Splash, Mentioned once in a flavour text of a minor card, Reward after recruiting a friend, The Unintelligible
  • Domains: Murlocs, Elements, Shamans, Friendship
  • Allies: Murky, Thrall, Harth Stonebrew, Wii Fit Trainer, Aang, Korra
  • Special Relationship: Al'Akir, The Old Gods
  • There have been legends of a powerful shaman that thanks to his dedication towards the elements was able to master them all and surpassed the powers of the average Shaman. Hearing these words from Thrall himself made the court of Gods believe that this powerful shaman would be from an important group from the Azeroth. But to their eventual surprise, they weren't expecting to see a small frog creature appear at them, barely understanding what was it saying. Morgl certainly wasn't expected by anyone, not even the court saw that coming.
  • While Morgl has been known among the Murloc kind, he only got known after he decided to take the mantle of the Shaman in a particular tavern. Thrall himself actually got him there, alongside the aid of another murloc who is able to speak english. It seems that Morgl is quite reclusive for a murloc.
  • Don't let his appearance fool you, Morgl is a quite powerful shaman himself, legends telling that he was able to calm a storm and a tsunami all by himself, saving a fellow murloc village in the process. Even after hearing this, some deities still like to joke about Morgl, usually angering the murloc and ending terriblt for those that dared to that make fun of him.
  • His control over the elements is said to be outstanding, being heralded as being the equal of Thrall himself. That's why he acts as sort of "Mentor figure" towards Aang and Korra, even though the latter are practically more powerful than him, they actually lack the wisdom that he acquired through the years of mastering the control of the elements. They actually find him to be very wise, if a bit silly sometimes due to his language.
    • He also can control powerful elementals like Al'Akir and Ragnaros. Though the latter isn't that cooperative with the murloc, often prefering to get the job done by burning everything.
  • It's said that Morgl has made a secret deal with The Old Gods themeselves, where he would act as an agent of them in the murloc communities while the old ones would allow him to command a few faceless whenever he pleases. Nobody is sure about that since the old gods aren't very talkative and Morgl himself...is quite hard to understand.
  • "Mrrrrrrrrgrrgl!" Translation 

So he has outstanding control over the elements. I already mentioned Aang and Korra as allies but is there someone who can control elements as well?

Also shamans as allies. I know Nightwolf is one

@ night elf: On average, I do six paragraphs with sub-paragraphs pertaining to the subject. The skeleton of that, I put right away and go from there. Whenever I add more, it's usually me getting a few more miscellaneous ideas that don't fit. Sometimes a have to sub-tract a sub-paragraph or two when my idea well is running dry. That's me, anyways.

So any "Romantic" Two-Girl Friendship in the Pantheon because I'm sure they would be friend with some that bond with each other, though Maribelle would claim that her friend is better than their other or something.
