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.

Sword-Chucks go up today

Sword-Chucks (Chainblades)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/swordchucks.JPG
  • Votes: 1(nightelf37)
  • Date of ascension: 8 September
  • House: Armory
  • Appearance: Two swords tied at the hilt with a chain
  • Alignment: Stupid Good
  • Portfolio: Crazy Awesomeness Matched Only By Impracticability, Instant Chucks That Are Also Swords, Achievements in Ignorance, Rule of Cool
  • Domains: Swords and Chucks, Impracticality, Fighting, Coolness
  • Inventor: Fighter McWarrior
  • Similar artifacts: Riot Zanbar Stinger, Gopher-chucks, Gun-chucks
  • An expert in fighting and in stupidity, Fighter hoped to join his love of nunchaku and swords together in one weapon. Thus swordchucks came to be. Two swords attached with chains, it's lethality lies not in the swords, nor the chuck. Rather, a combination of the two. Or at least, that's how Fighter would describe it.
  • Some of the most Awesome, but Impractical weapons ever, though White Mage believed they could work with a larger chain. You'd either have to hold both hilts and make the chuck part irrelevant and constraining, or be at massive risk of cutting yourself into pieces with a sword flying about. Not that Fighter lets practicality or on some occasion the laws of physics get in the way.
  • The House of Weapons has a perverse interest in the weapon, mainly due to it's absurdity and impracticality. Some gods will, either for a joke or(more often) while very drunk test it. Sometimes use of the weapon will end disastrously, other times it will defy common sense and be an extremely effective weapon. It usually depends on what's funnier.
  • An extremely powerful combination if it can be mastered. A medium speed high accuracy weapon, they have the effect of a large chainsaw being thrown around in the air, and have a 5% lower fatality rate for the user. Fighter was able to wield them to fight the fire elemental Kary to a standstill, even with the fact she had six arms.
  • Anyone who manages to uses the weapon and survive would've perfected the basic DEX score by default, and be able to use most weapons without much difficulty. Red Mage suggests it the weapon should be called "chainblades", but Fighter argues it should be kept sword-chucks because it just sounds cooler. Interestingly Garland has a giant sword which can split into two pairs of swords connected by chains, but he refuses to compare them with something as absurd as sword-chucks.
  • Fighter once made wand-chucks for Black Mage, as a Christmas present which he surprisingly enjoyed due to being ludicrously destructive.

I don't know what else to add for Aya. Is she good to go?

Aya Drevis, Goddess of Children who Act like Adults

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/aya_202.jpg
Grown up Aya 
  • Quasideity (Demigoddess with the Mini Chainsaw, Lesser Goddess with the Magic Water)
  • Symbol: A mini chainsaw and a blue bottle of perfume/white bottle of Magic Water in front of a pink bow.
  • Theme Song: Memories
  • Alignment: Neutral Good. Implied to be Neutral Evil or a darker shade of True Neutral when she grows up
  • Portfolio: Wielding a mini chainsaw with some unnerving nostalgia, able to stay relatively calm in situations that would make most adults panic, willing to save her family no matter what, Creepy Child
  • Domains: Adorableness, Calmness in Terrifying Situations, Family, Determination.
  • Herals: Monika and Alfred Drevis (Parents, albeit a little complicated), Maria (Housemaid), Snowball (Pet rabbit)
  • Allies The Ghostbusters, Luigi, Ash, The Human Child, Samantha Maxis, The Monsters of the Underground
  • Enemies: Evil undead deities, Leatherface, Piggsy, Medicine Melancholy, Banette, Suigintou, Edward Richtofen
  • Opposed by: Every ghostly member of the pantheon, due to the Magic Water's ability to seal them away, possibly forever.
  • Distrusted by: Rabbit deities
  • Comflicting Opinion: The Batter, The Medic
  • Aya Drevis is a young girl from Germany who all her life has been living secluded with her family. Her father, a Mad Scientist who likes to "experiment" on people is someone she always looked up and admired, until one day after the 1 year anniversary of her Mother's death all the past victims of her father came back from the dead and attacked everyone in the mansion. Aya later found out it was her Mother who wanted revenge against her Father, in attemps from saving her daughter from being turned into a doll. In the end Aya managed to survive the curse that her mother inflicted upon Dr. Drevis and started a new life somewhere else.
  • The Aya that ascended was taken from the time that she escaped her old home but before she grew up, so she is still a girl and seemingly good-hearted. The reason for this is unknown, probably because her grown up version is a little hard to pin point morality wise and some people believe that she turned out like her father.
  • Aya has a fondness of a Mini Chainsaw that she used to play with when she was younger, but her father forbid her of using it, for obvious reasons. She also refuses to attack anyone (not even The Undead!) with it, as she doesn't like seeing people suffer, Except objects (Even then, she tries to avoid the sentient ones).
    • That said, it doesn't mean she is a fan of actual chainsaw wielders, as she was almost killed by her father with one after all. She fears Leatherface and Piggsy the most, since those two wouldn't be out of place amongst her father's creations.
    • Although he founds Ash Chainsaw-arm really cool and he has asked him about his adventures against the undead.
  • The Magic Water that the strange salesman gave her can actually seal ghost forever, which she used on her mother to vanish her while trying to save her dad. Needless to say, Ghosts avoid her like a plague given that it could possibly vanish them from existance with a single drop. This also made her allies with those that have dealt with ghosts in the past, like the Ghostbusters and Luigi.
  • Is easily bewildered by the wonders of the modern world, due to being secluded in her house all of her life. As a result, she has a hard time talking to others.
  • She has a pet rabbit named Snow Ball that she cares a lot for. She also likes to hang around rabbit deities, but they don't seem to reciprocate the feeling because Aya may have hurted wild animals and even Snow Ball in the past, either willingly or accidentally. It doesn't help that her father has cloned Snow Ball numerous times to cover Snow Ball's "accidents"
  • Seems to get along with the Human Child given their shared Determination and love for their close ones. The Child has tried to keep Aya on track and save her from turning out like her father and so has introduced her to their friends who all have welcomed her with open arms. (The only exception would be Sans, who suspects Aya may be a lost cause)
  • She doesn't like dolls, mostly because many of the dolls she had in her house came to life and tried to kill her, not to mention that they were made by Aya's father and he intender Aya to become one so she would remain pure forever. It was no surprise that she made enemies out of many living dolls, she doesn't even trust The Plain Doll.
  • Coming from similar games, the Batter took interest in the gift that she was given by the strange salesman, an artifact that could help the batter in his mission to purify the world. Aya doesn't think highly of him, considering how he murdered his own family, his son (actually creator) Hugo being one of them, much like how Aya's father tried to do the same to her. In turn, the Batter is not interesting in Aya...yet. She is still pure, but if she indeed is like her father, she will have to face The Batter's judgement eventually.
  • Meeting Samantha Maxis was a godsend for Aya, since she is also the daughter of a german doctor (albeit not one in the same caliber as Dr. Drevis) and since Sam is also a rather Creepy Child herself, the two hit it off right away. Aya was hesitant at first given Samantha's zombie army but since the undead were commanded to avoid harming her, she eventually grew accustomed to them.
  • Doesn't trust the Medic, not only given his unethical methods when it comes to healing, but because he reminds her a lot of her father. The same could be said about Dr. Edward Richtofen, who actually did similar experiments like Dr. Drevis, arguably worse in some cases, and since Aya is in friendly terms with Samantha Maxis, Richtofen has tried to hurt just to spite Samantha. Thankfully Aya was smart enough to avoid the mad doctor.
  • While people are aware of her father and how he is, many wonder about how he ended up with a sweet woman like Aya's mom. Turns out all the "sweetness" that Aya's claims about her mother might be her being an Unreliable Narrator. She married Dr. Drevis because she enjoyed his work and how he once almost killed her, she even wanted her daughter to grow up just like her father, something Dr. Drevis opposed to. Makes you question who was the bigger evil of the two.

The Emperor Of Darkness

Okay. Euron is long enough. Here is the final draft.

I know Euron goes into War, but what other house can he find himself in?

[down] [tup] for both

King Euron Greyjoy, Pirate God Of Tongue Trauma and Insane Admirals (Euron Crow's Eye, The Drowned God - self-proclaimed, King of the Iron Islands, King of Salt and Rock, Son of the Sea Wind, Lord Reaper of Pyke, Commander of the Lannister Fleet, One-Eye - by Jaime Lannister)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/latest_1_43.png
  • Potential Houses:
  • Theme Song: Theme Of Euron Greyjoy 
  • Intermediate God
  • Symbol: The sigil of House Greyjoy, slightly altered - a silver kraken on a black field with a third red eye seen on its head
  • Alignment: Chaotic Evil (emphasis on Chaotic)
  • Portfolio: "I Am The Drowned God", An Axe To Grind, Asskicking Equals Authority (and vice versa), The Berserker, Big Little Brother To Balon, Blood Knight, Brutal Honesty, The Cain To Balon's Abel, Cloudcuckoolander, The Charmer, Cultural Rebel, The Dreaded, Large Ham, Laughing Mad, Rape, Pillage, and Burn, The Resenter, Royals Who Actually Do Something, Sanity Slippage, Screaming Warrior, The Sociopath, Villainous Valour, Villain with Good Publicity 
  • Domains: Piracy, Insanity, Kinslaying, Kingslaying
  • Allies: Cersei Lannister, Vaas Montenegro, The Joker, The Kurgan, Kano
  • Opposing Pirate Deities: Jack Sparrow, Will and Elizabeth Turner, Isabela of Rivain, Monkey D. Luffy, Johnny Sfondi, May
  • Enemies:
  • Fears: Cervantes de Leon, Kenshiro, Raoh
  • Worthy Opponents: Kratos, Gregor Clegane, Isabela of Rivain, Conan Of Cimmeria, Nariko
  • Morbidly Interested In: Cthulhu
  • Banned From: The House of Royalty, The House of Dragons, The House of Family, The House of Couples, The House of Treasures (including Maximum Security and The Armory), and The House of Romance, and most of the good-aligned sorceresses
  • I don't mock the Drowned God - I am the Drowned God. From Oldtown to Qarth, when men see my sails, they pray.
  • Ascended to the Pantheon after laying waste to Daenerys Targaryen's fleet, much to the delight of Cersei Lannister and the anger of Daenerys Targaryen. He was originally slated to ascend following him becoming King of the Iron Isles, but that was delayed. Fortunately, Cersei used a portion of the stolen Tyrell gold to smooth things over, allowing Euron to ascend proper.
  • The younger brother of Balon Greyjoy, Balon is a talented sailor and commander. However, things went downhill for his family when Balon rebelled against the fledgling Baratheon regime. While he had declared for his brother and was the mastermind behind the attack which destroyed Tywin Lannister's fleet at Lannisport, the Greyjoy Rebellion would end in failure, driving Euron into exile.
    • Tywin Lannister had not forgotten that little detail, and vows that "Euron Greyjoy will pay his debts" to the Lannisters. He's also not too keen seeing Euron in cahoots with his murderous, kinslaying/queenslaying daughter.
  • His ship is The Silence, which he named following him ripping out the tongues of his crew. This came after he went batshit insane during a storm whilst sailing the Jade Sea and his crew had to tie him to the mast from throwing himself overboard. When asked why he did that, Euron casually replied, "I needed the silence."
  • Euron has a morbid fascination with the most infamous of Old Gods, Cthulhu. Maybe because it shares several similarities with the Drowned God, or maybe Euron can be in its presence without going even more insane (as it such a thing can be more possible).
  • Hears that there is a Pirate King in the Pantheon. Euron's curiosity is piqued when he discovers that the Pirate King is in fact one Elizabeth Swann Turner. "My kind of woman," Euron notes upon hearing of how she fought - and got married - during the Battle of Calypso's Maelstrom. First things first: kill her husband, then usurp the title of Pirate King from Elizabeth and make her his salt wife. "I pay the iron price," Euron said.
  • Turns out that Euron has a thing for powerful women. Sure he's betrothed to Cersei, but there are other deities who are younger and more attractive than her. Emily Kaldwin is such a woman. "A fighter as well as a warrior," Euron notes. Emily, for her part, is not interested in Euron, thankfully. Corvo is not amused in the least.
    • Euron also has an unhealthy obsession with Geralt's foster daughter, Ciri Elen Riannon. A hunter of the supernatural and an Empress? And her deified cousin, the Duchess of Touissant isn't bad-looking either. This pisses Geralt off something serious.
  • Heard about Red Sonja's challenge, and decides to take her up on it. Too bad that Euron is a rapist. While not on part with Gregor Clegane, that little detail still set Sonja off. Euron was forced to retreat, lest the furious swordswoman try and geld him.
    • Another redhead that caught his attention is Nariko. Euron has seen her in action and quite frankly, he likes what he sees. The Heavenly Sword isn't too shabby either. Nariko, for her part, isn't interested in Euron, as he reminds her too much of King Bohan. Euron wonders if Nariko could give him a better challenge than the Sand Snakes.
  • Euron finds himself on most of the pirate deities' shit-list. He is, however, absolutely terrified of Cervantes de Leon. Euron crossed paths with the undead pirate in the past. It nearly ended with Cervantes bisecting Euron in two while possessed by Soul Edge. Even without the cursed blade, Cervantes is a threat. Euron decided that it would be best to avoid him.
    • Also steers clear of Raoh. Anyone who rides a horse the size of an elephant and can casually backhand the head off a person's shoulders is someone that needs to be watched...especially if said offender happened to be one of his men.
  • Even before leaving King's Landing to fight with the North, Jaime Lannister despises Euron. In a time which Tyrion himself kills Gregor Clegane during his trial by combat, Jaime and Euron squared off during a battle at sea. Despite Euron's sorcery and his assortment of dirty tricks (and insults), Jaime slays him, thus earning a more favorable nickname - Crowslayer.
  • Sees the half-naked wenches hanging around Conan and wonders what Conan has that makes him irresistible to the ladies. Is it his natural charm... or something else entirely? That or the fact that the deified Cimmerian is a monster on the battlefield. Euron trembles with anticipation over who is the better fighter between the two.
  • Among the many, many Houses he's banned from, the House of Dragons top the list. The reason being is that Euron is in possession of Dragonbinder, a six-foot long dragon horn that can bring a dragon under his control. That is something even the Dovahkiin cannot allow.

#100060: Sep 7th 2017 at 6:26:27 PM

What else should I add to these two?

The Lasso of Truth (Magic Lasso, Lasso of Hestia)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/golden_lasso_of_truth_ya0k97a_600.jpg
  • House: Magical Artifacts
  • Appearance: A golden lasso, shining when in use
  • Alignment: Lawful Good
  • Portfolio: Magical Lie Detector, Forged by the Gods, undoing mind-control, Impossibly Cool Weapon
  • Domains: Truth, Peace, Justice, Magic, Freedom
  • The Lasso of Truth was forged by Hephaestus from the Golden Girdle of Gaea, worn by Hippolyta's sister Antiope. Completely unbreakable and capable of having its size changed, it is one of Wonder Woman's signature items long with her Amazonium bracelets and her invisible plane. Most useful is its ability to compel others to tell the truth, fitting for its owner being the Spirit of Truth.
  • Empowered by the fires of Hestia, it forces anyone to tell the absolute truth. This can vary from acting like a truth serum to revealing someone's true nature. As such, it's also a good means of overcoming brainwashing. It's worth noting that Wonder Woman's Real Life creator, William Moulton Marston, invented the lie detector and as such the Lasso of Truth could be considered DC's embodiment of his invention.
  • The more optimistic members of the Grand United Alliance of Good likes the Lasso of Truth, due to the fact by exposing the truth it can give people a Heel Realization. This is useful for giving well-intentioned extremists and knight templars a wake-up call, though some already know the truth. The Grand United Alliance of Evil is trying to find a counter for this.
  • As Marston was a polygamist and bondage enthusiast, tongues have wagged in the Lust sub-house of the Power Perversion Potential the lasso has. This is especially the case when learning he meant it as an allegory for feminine charm and the compliant effect on people. Diana refuses to comment about this and states she's never used the lasso in a recreational way.
  • It is only known to break when the truth itself is challenged, such as when Bizarro broke out of it due to being the antithesis of logic and reasoning, or when the Queen of Fables was blurring the lines of fiction and reality. Seems to have some issues with reality warpers or eldritch abominations, so it's advised not to be used against overdeities.
  • Doctor Doom claims that his willpower is stronger than the Lasso of Truth, which is quite possible given his prior experience. Diana wants to put that to the test. It's said that even Littlefinger, Varys and Rhaegar Targaryen will tell the truth, with the latter being vindicated.
  • Bizzaro's version of Wonder Woman, Bizarra, has a lasso that makes people tell lies. He's tried to get it in the pantheon alongside Superwoman's lasso, which releases people's inhibitions. It hasn't gone anywhere.

The Ice King's Crown

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ice_crown.png
  • House: Magical Artifacts
  • Appearance: A golden crown with three red gems embedded in it
  • Alignment: Supposed to be Lawful Good, instead Chaotic Neutral leaning towards evil
  • Portfolio: Artifact of Doom, With Great Power Comes Great Insanity, Turns People Into Ice Wizards That Are Practically Immortal, Magitek, The Fog of Ages, Converts Wearers To An Imitation Of Evergreen, Time Abyss, Be Careful What You Wish For
  • Domains: Ice, Wish Magic, Corruption, Imitation, Madness, Immortality
  • Similar artifacts: The One Ring, The Helm of Dominance
  • Current owner: Simon Petrikov/The Ice King
  • Millions of years ago, the ice elemental Urgence Evergreen hoped to create a magic crown to stop a deadly comet. Powered by the ruby eyes of Magwood, this item of wish magic is meant to grant the user's deepest wish. But when it came to test the item it ended up in the hands of Evergreen's apprentice Gunther, who's deepest wish was to be just like his idol. Due to his skewed perception of the Jerkass, it drove him and future wearers insane.
  • Anyone who puts it on is transformed into an immortal ice wizard like Evergreen, but with a skewed and crazy personality. The stronger someone's will is the longer it takes, and in Simon's case he's more a pathetic crazy as the Ice King. Usually it makes people dangerously crazy and want to freeze the world. The reason why its in Magical Artifacts instead of Maximum Security is it doesn't make people crazy so long as it already has an owner. Plus it's usually in the Ice King's possession.
  • As it is naturally tied to the Ice King, its position in the treasury is due to convincing him to put it aside for some time. However without the Ice Crown's influence he reverts back to Simon and suffers No Immortal Inertia. Initially desiring this, he was convinced otherwise. The Ice King remains oblivious to the effect it has on him, claiming he made the crown with magic that he stole.
  • Similar to the One Ring, another ancient Artifact of Doom that turns who wields it into a shade of what they once were. However while the One Ring is an extension of Sauron's will, the Ice Crown isn't inherently evil. It merely wants to fill its original owner's wish, unfortunately this comes from the owner's distorted view on his master.
  • Arthas and Bolvar recognize the Ice Crown as being similar to the Helm of Dominance which also drives people mad, and with the soul of the original Lich King converts them into another Lich King(no relation to Adventure Time's Lich). Add in Arthas' ice powers, he has a morbid sense of curiosity about the Ice Crown and some pity for Simon's situation.
  • It is not clear what might happen if it was used or owned by someone who already has ice powers, or is already some form of insane. It's considered a wise idea not to try this less things go From Bad to Worse. How it interacts with other artifacts of doom, those transformed by them or those who Was Once a Man is also unknown, but again very few want this to happen.
  • A Magitek device, there are intricate matrices within this device and it possesses some primitive kind of sentience. The House of Magic and Technology have researched into the Ice Crown in hopes of unraveling the mysteries lost since the death of Urgence Evergreen. This has been difficult as all but the most extreme caution can mess things up. It has revealed to contain programs with the personality of all who wear it. One is the first Santa Claus, which Nicholas St North is curious about.

I don't think the Coachman is the best fit here. I think that the adaptation should be almost as famous as the origin. Unfortunately, the game adaptation where the Coachman got his karma... wasn't as famous.

Let me know if my argument holds water on this.

I've been thinking about this profile for a while, but I feel like Big Mac should get a seat, if not for The Quiet One then Used to Be More Social since his quietness comes from how an incident nearly got his own leg sawed off and him being so talkative caused a lie to snowball from there. His quietness is Character Development to state that he should talk less and listen more. That and his sisters have been here for a long time and we need more male MLP representatives no?

And also, is it all right to have Buttercup and Bright Mac as followers to Romeo and Juliet (as their backstory is essentially Romeo and Juliet minus the suicide)?
