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.

Final draft for Emily Kaldwin.

Empress Emily Drexel Lela Kaldwin I, Goddess of Hereditary Hairstyles (Formerly Lady Kaldwin, Empress of the Empire of the Isles, Emily The Just/Wise, Emily The Butcher/Vengeful)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/250px_sklv_painting_emily_02b_d.png
  • Potential Houses: Hair Preference
  • Theme Song: Emily's Theme from Dishonored 2
  • Lesser Goddess
  • Symbols: Corvo's Sword Placed Upon Her Throne
  • Alignment: Teeters Between Low Chaos and High Chaos
  • Portfolio:
  • Domains: Royalty, Illegitimate Children, Assassination, Vengeance
  • Abilities Include: Shadow Walk, Mesmerize, Doppelgänger, Domino, and Far Reach
  • Additional Relationships: Corvo Attano (her father)
  • Allies: Ezio Auditore, Aragorn, Arthur Pendragon, Ashe (Final Fantasy), Visenya and Rhaenys Targaryen, Ciri Fiona Elen Riannon, Anna Henrietta, Arya Stark, Annabeth Chase
  • Conflicting Opinion: Catelyn Stark
  • Enemies: Tywin Lannister, Cersei Lannister, Sheev Palpatine, Nurgle, Regime Superman, Arthas Menethil, Johan Liebert, Petyr Baelish, Reaper
  • Opposes: Stannis Baratheon, Aerys II Targaryen
  • Pities: Anakin Skywalker
  • Intrigued By: The Outsider
  • Scouted By: Havilk and Hotaru
  • Commonality Connection: with Carrie White (for one reason)
  • Ascended to the Pantheon thanks in part to her father, Corvo Attano. Originally slated to join the House of Royalty, Emily's ascension to her current position had surprised her, but she accepted the title. She does, after all, wear her hair just like her Dad, only in a more feminine fashion.
    • Speaking of Papa Corvo, threatening and/or harming her old man will guarantee a rather gruesome and painful death at her hands. When your dad is not only a trained assassin but also serves as your bodyguard and mentor, you pick certain things up.
  • Emily does not hide the fact that she is the bastard daughter of Jessamine Kaldwin, the former Empress and Corvo Attano, her mother's bodyguard. She does, however, take issue with some deities that treat baseborn and bastard children like second-class citizens, like Catelyn Stark for example. Granted that Lady Stark now knows the truth behind Jon Snow's parentage, it doesn't make up the fact that she treated him like crap.
  • Emily is up front and honest about her lack of experience when it comes to political intrigue, which had gotten her into trouble during the whole 'Crown Killer' fiasco. She was seen in the Houses of Leadership and Royalty, speaking with the various rulers and leaders on how to lead both her nation and her people. Ironically enough, she hated school as a youngster.
  • Dislikes Tywin Lannister as she reminds him of Hiram Burrows, the Royal Spymaster who had orchestrated the coup that killed her mother and had her imprisoned for a number of months until her father rescued her. Emily doesn't think too highly of his daughter either, as Cersei dismissed Emily as a "bastard girl pretending to be Empress." Knowing full well of what Cersei had done to install her own bastard offspring (and later, herself) on the Iron Throne, Emily replied to the barb with just three words: "Pot. Kettle. Black."
  • Looks at how Regime Superman, Aerys II Targaryen, and Arthas Menethil had became tyrannical despots and seeks not to follow in their footsteps. Two scenarios are presented to her, both in which she herself becomes a tyrant due to the choices made by herself and her father. It's also one of the main reasons why she pities Anakin Skywalker, seeing as how Palpatine manipulated him into becoming Darth Vader.
  • Scouted by Havik and Hotaru due to the Chaos that surrounds her. As Emily is no fan of the Cleric of Chaos, she also looks down on Hotaru due to his obsession with order. It also helped that Hotaru threatened her father due to his past as an assassin.

@ Isis: You know some stories of Isis state that she forced Ra into revealing his true name in order to banish him so her husband can take assume the throne, which made Set turn on them and become evil. I would also suggest making Ra less of a enemy and simply have him listed as Teeth-Clenched Teamwork and/or have him simply oppose her. Also add Zia Rashid as a ally.

Again I think I'm done with Larten now, unless you guys can think of something. I'll also except votes now.

[up] I don't think you realized how much power Isis holds over Ra. She is the only one who knows his true name, which to ancient Egyptian is like holding someone's soul and essence in their hand, AKA she can easily sap him of his power anytime. Not to mention the whole "sic a cobra to bite on him" thing since gods can't die but still can feel pain.

Edit: Although I read that the Ptolemys merged Isis with Bastet and has Isis to be married to Ra (of all people) and gives birth to Horus (Apollo) and Bastet (Artemis)

Edit 2: [down] I can't seem to find Set anywhere. Can you tell me which house is he in?

@Isis: She is also enemies with Set who is in the pantheon. Oh and one reason she'd be against the Powers is them bringing lesser Egyptian deities into their ranks via Inanna birthing them or Odin and Krishnas manipulation.

[up] Sinners.

@Rick: if we are adding the Suck Speeches to his profile better point out how YHVH is trying to be Unity with a Ricks ego Gone Horribly Wrong.

And probably that Lucifer was at least smart enough to have one group under him (Chaos Brigade) be people he lets do whatever they want without supervision or bureacracy.

  • Listen. Can you hear it? The wind. Cars. The ocean. The laughter and the screaming and the hum of everything. This city is a symphony. And I'm her speaker.
  • The Pantheon has a thriving nightlife, with its many clubs and bars. One of which has just opened up, which coincides with the ascension of the Pantheon's newest member. Alison Blaire has come to the Pantheon.
  • Jem was the first to visit Dazzler at her nightclub/temple, and the pair got along handsomely. Jem was worried at first that Dazzler might make a play for Rico, but Dazzler knows not to mess with another woman's man. It doesn't seem to end well.
    • Eric Raymond tried to get Dazzler to sign under his label, Misfits Music. Ali politely told him exactly where he can take his contract. Now Raymond has vowed to take Dazzler down for her refusal.
  • Has a rivalry with Black Canary not because of Canary's past as a singer, but rather that Dazzler is immune to sonic/sound attacks. Meaning that Dazzler can shrug off Dinah's Canary Cry with no problem. While Canary is the superior fighter, Dazzler has trained with the X-men and S.H.I.E.L.D., making her a threat.
  • Alison's dad wanted her to be a lawyer. She wanted to be a singer, which was a sore spot for Papa Blaine, as Ali's mom walked out on them to pursue her career. She did complete several pre-law courses, but chose to follow her dream. Jennifer Walters, on the other hand, wanted to be a lawyer. Fortunately for Ali, she's good friends with She-Hulk and is her go-to lawyer for all legal reasons.
  • She's on neutral ground with Emma Frost, due Emma's Hellfire Club days in which the Club had tried to kidnap Dazzler. The same can be said regarding Captain Marvel due to her actions in the second Civil War.
  • Cain Marko was very happy to see his favorite singer ascend to the Pantheon, as was Kitty Pryde. Juggy swept Dazzler up in a bear hug, congratulating her on her ascension in the Pantheon. He offers his services as bouncer for her club, which Dazzler accepts.
  • Made friends with Lynn Minmay after she heard Dazzler cover It's You, but transformed it into a Power Ballad, while at the same time found herself on I-No's shit-list after besting her in a music contest, Dazzler rocking the crowd with her cover of Heart of Madness (with the blessings of tge Four Hokuto Brothers, Rei and Shin). Dazzler did lose to Jem in the contest, having sung Real Emotion, but for I-No, being bested by Dazzler is unacceptable.

Standard repost of these two

The Eyrie, Divine Host of The Sky Cells

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/the_eyrie_tn.jpg
  • Votes: 1(nightelf37)
  • Date of ascension: 6 September(repost 3 September)
  • House: Establishments
  • Description: A towering fortress perched on steep mountains
  • Symbol: The Arryn family sigil of a moon and falcon
  • Alignment: Lawful Neutral
  • Portfolio: Sky Cell, Primal Fear, Perilously Perched On Mountaintops, Incredibly Vertical, It's Quiet… Too Quiet, Climbing the Cliffs of Insanity
  • Domains: Vertigo, Mountaintops, Intimidation, Gravity
  • Sacred to: Littlefinger
  • Unholy to: Anyone afraid of heights, Tyrion Lannister
  • The most important family in the Vale is House Arryn, who used to be kings of the region before Aegon and his sister-wives took over. Perched on top of the Mountains of the Moon, the very vertical and steep Eyrie is considered impregnable to being attacked. Best anyone with vertigo or a fear of heights avoid it.
  • Home of the sky cells, prison cells that are shelves on the side of the mountain's cliff. All that separates the prisoners from falling off is a small cell. One should be very careful not to roll over in their sleep, or they may not wake up ever again. It has a direct link in the Pantheon to Wind and Air, though Littlefinger has tried to discourage flying gods from helping because "it ruins the point of the cells".
  • The House of Justice wouldn't wish being imprisoned there on all but the worst members of the pantheon; being in a sky cell is utterly terrifying. The cold and strong wind, the sight where a wall should be, it's not unheard of for prisoners to just get it over with and jump out of the Sky Cell. Not helped that Lysa Arryn and by all accounts Littlefinger are in charge of the place.
  • The sky cells are not the only means of using gravity viciously. The Moon Door is a door or well that leads the unfortunate victim six hundred feet down. It's used to execute, and Robert Arryn does like to see bad men fly. Most good-aligned members consider it an awful form of execution, though Leonidas seems amused by it. He suggests the executioners yell THIS! IS! THE VALE! to balance the situation with humor.
  • Is being run by Robert Arryn, but in all but name due to being a sheltered sickly child. Littlefinger is effectively in control due to being The Chessmaster and Jon Arryn's widow Lysa being infatuated with him. Most suspect he'll die soon and Littlefinger seems to be slowly poisoning him, the current successor to Robert being Jon's grandnephew Harrold Hardyng. The recent Arryns have had issues with producing heirs.
  • Tyrion was disturbed to learn that the sky cells were now part of the pantheon. Ned Stark, having been fostered there like Robert Baratheon was not asides from being upset that Littlefinger had more or less taken over. While Ned calls it home, his actor Sean Bean wants nothing of it due to his fear of heights.

You know, Hell Hound is not taken. Can i use it for the Hellhounds from Zombies Mode? They are a special enemy that appears from time to time and a recurring mook second only to the Zombies themselves.

[up] Hell Hound is taken by Alucard from Hellsing, but he also has Healing Factor. Looking at his profile, I feel like there's a little too much reliance on his appearance from Hellsing Ultimate Abridged and I'm pretty sure we don't use abridged version counterparts as the main basis for a profile.

So, according to most legend Horus is conceived after Osiris is castrated and Isis makes a golden phallus for him. I HAVE to mention this in her profile, guys because of Rule of Funny.

Second draft for Isis:

Isis, Goddess of True Name Knowledge (Goddess of Health, Goddess of Marriage, Goddess of Wisdom, Goddess of Magic, Aset, Iset, She Who Knows All Names)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/isis.jpg
  • Potential House: Naming Convention
  • Symbol: Her kite bird wings, headdress and name in Egyptian hieroglyphs◊
  • Alignment: Neutral Good, although Ra sees her as True Neutral
  • Greater Goddess
  • Domain: Magic, Necromancy, Marriage, Name
  • Portfolio: Action Girl, knows all true names, tricked Ra into revealing his true name to save Egypt from falling into darkness by Set and overthrow him, finds and resurrect Osiris to conceive Horus,
  • Allies: Osiris (her husband), Geb (her father), Anubis (her nephew and step-son), Neith (her great-great-grandmother), the House of Family, especially Yu Narukami, Flynn, the House of Magic, Hecate, Persephone, Yami Yugi, the House of Life and Death, Ben and Gwen Tennyson, Kevin Levin, Zia Rashid, the House of Love
  • Enemies: Ra, Set, Light Yagami, Misa Amane, Apophis, Zeus, Aphrodite, the Divine Powers, Ryuk, Charmcaster, Voldemort/Tom Riddle, Sobek
  • Opposes: Hades, Cleopatra the VII
  • Pities: Hera, Rem
  • Summonable by: Yukari Takeba, Hibiki Kuze
  • Feared by: Io, Bahamut and Tiamat, Dr. McNinja, Harry Dresden, Valkyrie Cain, Skullduggery Pleasant, Darquese
  • Followers: The cast from Earthsea
  • The ancient Egyptian goddess of magic, health and marriage, Isis flies into the Pantheon because she misses her husband Osiris. After being impressed with her ability and title "She Who Knows All Names", Isis was welcomed to join the Pantheon.
  • Isis's ascension is spoiled by Ra and Set's antic of making the sun unbearably hot while the wind stirring up and whispering about Osiris's condition because the former still holds a grudge against her for tricking and successfully staged a coup against him to ascend her son Horus while the latter is angry that she revived Osiris. The three of them have been on bad terms ever since. The only thing they seem to be remotely on the same page is how much they hate Apophis.
    • However, the one time she and Ra do get along is when Isis's role is combined with Bastet briefly during the Ptolemaic dynasty, which makes her married to Ra. The two of them prefer to never mentioned this period and this is why Isis has a strained relationship with Ptolemaic queen Cleopatra.
  • Gets along well with a lot of the Shin Megami Tensei humans since she is powerful enough to holds some independence from YHVH and frequently allied with them by being summoned by Yukari and Hibiki.
  • Because of her good relationship to human as well as knowing how much of a nightmarish workload it is for the Underworld if they succeed, she swears to foil the Divine Powers's plan at any opportunity. The fact that one of the most powerful deity in the Pantheon hates the Divine Powers really damage their reputation.
  • As the goddess of Marriage, she frequently visits the House of Family. In there, she has a pleasant surprise of encountering Yu Nakurami again. The latter is also glad since she helps him and represents the bond between him and Margaret.
  • Pities fellow goddess of marriage Hera for putting up with such a cheating husband such as Zeus but feels that her revenge is rather excessive. Also disgusted by Zeus's frequent use of Bed Trick reminds her of her sister's Nephthys trick with her husband Osiris to conceive Anubis. The fact that Isis also fought against him before doesn't help. Same story with Aphrodite since she is a rampant cheater.
  • Since one of her sacred animals is the cobra, Isis pays a visit to the House of Toxicity and Reptiles. Not only is she disappointed by the large amounts of evil deities in both houses, the House of Reptiles brought her attention of Sobek, who is rumored to be taking married women from their husband. Isis declares him an enemy since she is the protector of families and marriage.
  • As the goddess of funeral rites and married to an Underworld ruler, she frequently visits the House of Life and Death. Death of the Endless welcomes her since Isis is one of the few people who knows the true value of both life and death.
  • Holds the knowledge of the true names and other nicknames/titles of not only the entire Egyptian deities, but also the entire Pantheon. Some believe that this, along with her power over funeral rites, Magic and Family, makes her the most powerful of all the Egyptian Pantheon because she can perform incredible feats such as:
    • Immunes to Io, Bahamut and Tiamat's magic since she knows their Secret Name and can demands one favors from each of them.
    • Can use the Death Note with just meeting a person. The fact that she can fly makes this really easy. Although Isis usually doesn't even bother using it since she isn't a bloodthirsty goddess.
    • Can summon the Dovahkiin if she ever in possession of the Thu'um. Although she is usually a good sport about summoning him by supplying the Dovahkiin the protonymic name of a Daedra.
    • Is sought after by many every single Warcraft deities who fought against the Burning Legions since her knowledge of their true names allows them to have an edge against the Demons.
    • Is one of the few deities feared by Dr. McNinja since the knowledge of his true birth name makes him vulnerable to be cursed.
    • Holds power over Charmcaster since Isis knows of her real name "Hope". As such, Isis sometimes uses her power to save Ben, Gwen and Kevin when Charmcaster turned evil.
    • Can basically mind-control anyone not sealed their True Names by magical seal when entering the Skulduggery Pleasant world. Is also one of the few deities who can forced Harry Dresden's to his knee. Thus, Dresden, Pleasant, Darquese and Cain are all wary of her. And no, Dresden's power to influence other being by nicknaming them doesn't work on her since Isis knows her true name as well.
    • Got on the nerve of Voldemort to no ends since she refuses to call him Voldemort and insists on calling him Tom Riddle. Or Tommy if she is pissed.
  • A lot of people are surprised about how Isis usually just laughs off Horus's conception and sometimes even gloats about the events since it proves her absolute mastery over life and death. However, do NOT bring up Anubis's conception or her husband Osiris's condition.
  • Her ability has brought her the attention of Light Yagami, who plans to manipulate her temple's power to fuel a new killing streak with Misa. Enraged by this, Isis immediately resurrects all of his victims and sic a swamp of cobras to chase down Light and his partner-in-crime Misa. She then declares both them mortal enemies and vows to resurrect everyone that is killed by the Death Note.
    • Also doesn't let Ryuk off the hook either since he is the one enable Light. Although she does feel sympathy for Rem because of how Light killed her and her devotion to Misa.
  • Got along surprisingly well with Hecate and Persephone as Isis is usually worshipped by Greeks alongside them as the Underworld trio goddess, not to mention Hecate is the patron goddess of witchcraft. Although her opinion on Hades is a little bit mixed since his frequent demonization and that she fought against him but she acknowledges that him and Persephone is the few Happily Married couple in Greek Pantheon.
  • As the goddess of marriage, she also frequently visits the House of Love. All of them welcome her since she represent both the concept of marriage and childbirth. Yes, even the House of Lust who are impressed by the golden phallus she made for Osiris that not only keeps her satisfied but also conceived Horus.

[down][down] Fixed.

Ken Amada, The God with a Traumatic Childhood (The Pretentious Tenderfoot Duo)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ken_amada_p4u_artwork.png
  • Lesser God
  • Symbol: The orange jumonji-yari and his old orange hoodie
  • Theme Song: Youthful Spirit
  • Alignment: Neutral Good
  • Portfolio: Youngster of the team, Wanted to Kill His Mother's Killer and offing himself afterward, Spear wielder, Specialized in Hama spells, Break the Cutie, Saw his mom and later Shinjiro, Rethought of his life and moved on, grew tall and bishie
  • Domains: Traumatic, Childhood
  • Allies:
    • S.E.E.S./Shadow Operative: Minato/Minako Arisato, Yukari Takeba, Junpei Iori, Akihiko Sanada, Mitsuru Kirijo, Fuuka Yamagishi, Aigis, Labrys
    • Other Persona Users: Yu Narukami, Yosuke Hanamura, Chie Satonaka, Yukiko Amagi, Kanji Tatsumi, Rise Kujikawa, Teddie, Naoto Shirogane
    • Other: Hachiko, Clifford, Jake the Dog, Courage, Lady & Tramp, Pongo & Perdita
  • Enemies: Goro Akechi
  • Atone to: Shinjiro Arigaki
  • Conflicted with: Nemesis, House of Vengeance
  • While Ken moved on in his life as a teenager, his childhood was very traumatic. For starters, his mom was accidentally killed by Shinjiro's Persona and was fueled by revenge as he want to kill him and offing himself afterwards. And then, he died in front of him when he took a bullet from Takaya Sakaki. He has since moved on from his vengeance and grew up with a new determination in life.
  • He once despised Shinjiro for the death of his mother, albeit accidental. When Shinjiro took a bullet that was meant for him, he later found it in his heart to forgive him and move on to keeping on living for him and his mother's sake. He tried to forgive himself to Shinjiro when the two meet again in the Pantheon, in which Shinji doesn't want his apology since it won't be necessary.
  • He is both frightened and vengeful with Goro Akechi as he found that he is a lot like him if he haven't given up on his revenge against Shinjiro, including both being of the Justice Arcana.
  • His initial Persona was Nemesis, the goddess of vengeance, which manifested when Ken was fueled to avenge his mother. However, he has since moved on and it transfigured to Kala-Nemi upon accepting his new determination to live for his mother's and Shinji's sacrifice. He admits to have a hard time seeing the goddess because of his foolish past which nearly destroyed him.
    • As the result, Ken usually does not want to meet anyone from the House of Vengeance as they often bring up his hatred in which he tries to outgrow.
    • He was given a talk by David Xanatos of how he considered revenge a waste of time and to see a youth seeking such is a waste of life. Considering how revenge brought more heartache than it is worth, Ken agrees with him.
  • Some noted his dramatic growth spurt from a young boy to a teenager standing five foot. It is suggested that he has been drinking his milk, in spite of his lactose intolerance.
  • Ken likes animal, as he has several pets like a hamster, a goldfish, and even taking in Koromaru. He like many of the dogs and puppies in the Pantheon as they remind him of Koromaru, especially Hachiko due to their similarity.

I want to know what I should call the trinity in charge of School for the rework. And if you think these three should lead or have your own ideas: Suggested by thatdude to be led by Eikichi Onizuka, Makoto Niijima and Severus Snape. Is that a good idea, and if so what should I dub this trinity

True Names are pretty big deals in Holy Grail Wars, because it will expose the weakness of a Servant, giving oppositions advantages. I dunno if this means Isis might be eligible for Ruler class... or gets BANNED from entering because it'll be considered cheating... or is considered legit enough since True Names may have stopped being a big deal since the Grand Order era.
