Trope Pantheons Discussion

Go To

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

    Rules 
Rules. The following are not suggestions or tips, but things that have to be followed:
  • When writing a profile, take note of the following:
    • Gods cannot be followers or high priests for obvious reasons. The 'gods' have ascended meaning there is no need for said character to be a follower of another if they have ascended.
    • No hype profiles, please. 'Hype Profiles' are profiles that have been made out of ongoing events and have not been around for a long time. This creates 'hype' due to popularity and certain elements either through certain scenes, memes, dramatic acting or considered overly awesome. They are not bad tropes but building a portfolio solely for that is a bad idea, as they do not say a thing about representing the trope best (unless it's those trope concepts that they are trying to embody for a long time)
      • You can see one if the profile is only showing off how awesome they are or suddenly pushing how 'significant' they are thanks to the just very recent events rather than respecting the longstanding good representations of the trope. And usually having... minimum portfolio or flavor texts and being a bit too generalized or self-contained to events from within their home series instead of interacting with other Pantheon members.
  • When posting in the forum, take note of the following:
    • When you suggest a God, please explain why they fit the trope. Not everyone is going to understand just "X should be the God of Y because they exemplify the trope" off the bat, especially if they're unfamiliar with the work.
    • You must use the Trope Pantheons discussion thread in the forums if you wish to add a new deity, story, something else of importance to the Trope Pantheon canon, or reworking an existing deity (be it simply improving their existing profile or changing their title).
      • For new and reworked deities, 3 [tup] means the profile will have a one week waiting period.
      • For new and reworked deities, 4 [tup] is a 3 day waiting period.
      • 5 [tup] is an automatic ascension for new and reworked deities.
      • Speaking of reworks, for anyone that wants to improve such profiles, they have to review the current trope the character(s) has and see if it still holds up or if there is a better rep for their trope.
    • For adding new Treasures to The Great Treasury or new Dominions to the Dominions, the following rules apply:
      • For new Treasures or Dominions, 3 [tup] is a 3 day waiting period.
      • 4 [tup] is an automatic addition to the Great Treasury or Dominions.
    • Do not repost a profile in the forums more than twice in a day if noticeable changes have not been made in between. If a profile is posted a third time in a row without noticeable alterations, it will be downvoted. This is so spamming of no-effort profiles is less frequent and to prevent tropers from getting aggravated seeing the same profile over and over. The minimum acceptable change has to be a single flavour text.
    • The Pantheon is not a mouthpiece for you to voice your opinions on certain characters. You may like certain characters more than others, but do not make the mistake of making profiles for characters you like look like Character Shilling.
    • Tropers new to the Pantheon are barred from approving or downvoting profiles until they have ascended at least two profiles.
    • Do not include fan reception in any profiles. It has nothing to do with the character themselves and will create unnecessary conflict.
    • Write a detailed explanation on why the character is the best candidate for deity of that trope. If people disagree with you, do not force it on the people.
    • Keep in mind that if you still want to try to find a trope for a particular character, you are only given three chances to find a particular trope for them. If a suggestion goes past three possible tropes, then it will come off as shoehorning a character into the Pantheon just for the sake of that character to be there.
      • On a related note, even if a character does have a free trope being suggested, there is still a limit of three attempts for suggesting that character for that trope. If no one responds to that certain proposal after being posted three times, then it will get to the point where the idea will be seen as being shoehorned into the Pantheon. In addition, the idea needs to be considered acceptable and approved because they are good, not for the sake of pitying others because no one is responding to their idea.
  • When posting Pantheon related stuff to the wiki, take note of the following:
    • Do not put a link to these Pantheon pages into the main wiki page. The moment you want to add in a main Characters page that the character is a God of this trope, do not do it. If you see leftovers of this practice, inform the forum and use the cutlist. This also goes to the Trivia page. The only exception to this rule is if a page in the Pantheon could be confused for a page in Main, like Good Colors, Evil Colors and Good and Evil Colors.
    • Rule of Cautious Editing Judgment ALSO applies here. Do not bring things that would incite fights, even if it is what is currently the hot topic and might be 'urgent'. For example, the political scene and some really bad politicians. We are not here to fight at each other, so don't suggest things that go to that direction, this is a fictional Pantheon after all.
    • To add a Pantheon page for a certain work, 4 or more characters coming from the same series/franchise should be ascended before adding the page. For Creator specific pages, 4 deities coming from the same creator and 2 individual work pages coming from the same creator is the minimum to warrant a page.
    • Do not create a trope page for a story until the story is fully completed.

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

  • Preparing to write:
    • First thing to do before present a profile is to go to the Trope Pantheons discussion thread. In the forums, you must discuss with other users on adding ideas and seek their approval with sound reasoning. You can also get some assistance in the forum thread by either asking for help and those interested asking if they can help. Submissions that are added without discussion are likely to be deleted and those who violate those rules by adding Pantheon content without discussion will get reported to the mods.
    • If you feel the need to remove a character for some reason (poor quality, outdated titles, etcetera) and replace him/her with another or outright rework, please see what the other tropers think about this in the discussion thread before doing anything hasty. Use good reasoning to see if your idea can easily replace the character present without drawing out your statement or giving too ambiguous claims most do not understand.
    • Please be sure to consult others in the discussion about what you want to work before making the profile. This is done to see if your proposal is the best representative and so, in case your profile is turned down, you do not waste time writing something that others might not find suitable.
      • In the same vein, if you adopt a profile from another troper, it is recommended that you make an announcement that you have done so on the discussion thread. More often than not, a trope that was reserved for something was given away to someone else. Check the Related tab on the top of a page to see if a trope or character has been reserved by a user.
    • If, for whatever reason, you are writing about a God who just happens to be a person in real life, just try to be very careful about what you decide to say. Do not try to make the editing seem too meta (self-referential) and use the aformentioned creativity to create hypothetical scenarios towards fictional characters.
  • When writing a profile for a character, here are a few things to note:
    • All deities should be sorted by their divine ranking. Put Overdeities on the top of the page and Quasideities on the bottom. Also be sure to add them in alphabetical order by their first/given name (can be reversed if it is Eastern ordered). For a group, if there is no official name for them all list down all their names by order of relevance or (if too long to list) title them as Insert Name Here Main Characters or some other identifiable title along the same lines.
    • The maximum number of tropes that a god can have is two, but do not try to abuse that fact. If you need to use a second trope to specify a certain thing about their position, that can be excused either because said character represents their trope choice very well alongside the first trope. It is still generally encouraged to only have one trope.
    • A trope can only belong to one profile at a time. The only time two profiles can share a trope is if there are explicit variations listed in the trope page proper (e.g. Muscle Angst is held by both Biscuit Krueger and Chihiro Fujisaki as the former represents "Too Much Muscle" and the latter represents "Not Enough Muscle")
    • If the character you are about to add to a House already exists in another, make sure to mention that this person has spots in other House as well. Up to 2 places can be made for a deity, with the sole exceptions being those at the Main House to highlight those characters’ importance to the Pantheon’s lore.
    • For a character's theme song, try to avoid calling it "Theme of God X" or "Theme of (Show where God X originates from)". If possible, try to find out if the song has an actual name through research. Most importantly, it has to be part their series’ official soundtracks from media. Do not list songs that are made by fans or outside sources. If they were not specifically used as music for that specific character, then they do not count. Furthermore, it has to be a general theme specifically made for that characters’ appearances, not some generic music that plays for many other instances not related to the character in question.
    • For images, when adding an image for your chosen character, it is highly recommended to use a stylized image that embodies the character or renders that also highlights a character’s behavior (such as cool poses). Most images should be from the main adaptations of the character, unless the images from the other media are of a higher quality than the adaptation. Unless it is needed, do not use fanart for images. If you are, please attribute to the original artist. Due to the website’s dark mode, removing white backgrounds from an image is paramount. This website is suggested to do the background removal. If an image you have takes up too much bytes, it is suggestible to use this site to reduce the byte size. If the byte is still too big, put the compressed image to other sites (or even the same one) to compress even further. Use wikias to look for better images, as even wikias for the series might not contain good official images.
    • Creativity is your friend. While it is not recommended to get too ditzy at your ideas, it is best that when writing a profile for a certain character, do you think of capable scenarios between X and Y. Tip: do not use shallow examples (X wields a sword and Y wields one too) and try to think of relationships that makes sense (i.e those characters that are shout-outs for another).
  • Pantheon Content:
    • Some series or genres will eventually have greater representation in the Pantheon than others. This is unavoidable, but a little diversity helps to make you not look like a shill per say. Try to ensure that if you add a deity from a popular series, make sure that it is because they are a good representative for the trope in question, and not just because they are connected to another deity in their respective canon.
      • As far as deities from actual mythologies, there is generally expectation to build the profiles off interactions from fictional portrays rather than basing it entire from the actual myth. Therefore, a mythological deity should be more of a Composite Character whose main identity is from the actual myth.
    • Occasionally there will be Gods that carry a title without a trope. This is not forbidden, but it is well advised not to abuse them. The only house that a tropeless profile are wholly allowed is the House of Food. Mainly due to most food items lacking tropes, and adding tropes about said foodstuffs is slightly unnecessary. However, the character being ascended for their choice of a food, or food-related thing must be a decently good representative of said item. (i.e their Trademark Favorite Food, or something that they are closely associated with In-Universe, or both).
    • For Dominions and Treasures profiles, always consider what made those places/objects popular in the first place. Were they plot-important, identifiable imagery or have a unique aspect of it? Do not just bring regular objects under the basis of following a certain canon.
  • For Profile Standards:
    • Flavor text is used to describe certain things about a character, place or object. To avoid short ones, it is recommended to write flavor text with 4-7 sentences that can fill around 2 lines each. Be warned that adding too many sentences does not equal good flavor text as it is not an essay of sorts (unless words are substantial and do add to the overall line).
    • Character Profiles of a certain person should have the following:
      • A portfolio that contains at least 7 (at the minimum) tropes describing their character.
      • Flavor text count for a deity profile should have by minimum, 10 (depending if the character in question has enough relationships/characterization) to 15 with a maximum of 20-25 for an individual profile.
      • On the other hand, group profiles (profiles of a group that has 4 or more members) have their maximum flavor text count to 15 minimum, giving individual lines for the other members of the group (unless the members are not as characterized) up to 30 at max.
    • Dominion profiles of a certain place should have the following:
      • A portfolio that contains at least 5 (at the minimum) tropes describing the context of the place.
      • Flavor text count should range at least 10 to 15.
    • Treasure profiles (inanimate objects without a trope) should have the following:
      • A portfolio that contains at least 6 (at the minimum) tropes that describes the object itself.
      • Flavor text count should be at least 7 flavor text up to 12 to constitute a treasure profile.

    Divine Ranking System 
  • Overdeity: Omnipotent-level Reality Warpers capable of manipulating the entire universe (or at least the world) at will. Within their own universe they are believed to be omnipotent, or at least impossible-to-completely-destroy embodiments or concepts.
  • Greater Gods: High-level Reality Warpers and that are extremely powerful (capable of destroying or changing anywhere from a large city to a planet at will) and very strong non-reality warpers capable of doing the same thing.
  • Intermediate Gods: Deities at this level are capable of strong but specialized powers such as hydrokinesis, pyrokinesis, etc. without major drawbacks and low level Reality Warpers capable of affecting their immediate area at will.
  • Lesser Gods: Capable of highly specific or little power on their own, or suffer from Power at a Price. However, they may be able to ruthlessly exploit their power or combine it with just being badass enough to make up for it.
  • Demigods: Basically the Badass Normals of the pantheon, making up for their lack of abilities with strength, strategy, and/or planning.
  • Quasideities: Any otherwise normal human, human equivalent, or below without any special powers or training will fall here.

    Templates 
Template for adding a new deity:

God X, God/dess of (Insert Trope Here) (Alternate names/Nicknames, Fan Nickname)

  • An image, if possible. Please use official art or a screenshot for a picture.
  • Rank: This can range from Quasideity, Demigod, Lesser God, Intermediate God, Greater God, to Overdeity, based on representation of power mentioned above.
  • Symbol: An image or icon used to represent the deity.
  • Theme Song: Official song (in other words, no fan music, regardless of quality) that usually is used in affiliation with the character. If the deity is a musician this will most likely be their Signature Song. If possible, give a link for reference, preferably on either a website like Soundcloud or YouTube.
  • Alignment: Good, evil, neutral etc. Forget about The Great Character Alignment Debate here, the Pantheon is one of the few places where you can assign Dungeons & Dragons alignment to characters that don't have alignment system. After all, the Pantheon is based on D&D and is made for fun.
  • For Pokémon deities only:
    • Gender: Defines the gender of the Pokémon; if genderless, it instead defines what gender they identify as.
    • Ability: Provides the Pokémon's ability. If they can Mega Evolve, the new ability is listed as well.
    • Moves: Defines the four moves used by a Pokémon. A Z-Move may also be listed.
  • Portfolio: Tropes associated with the character.
  • Domains: Things that the character has influence over.
  • Herald: Non-ascended loyal character that is from the same series as the ascended character.
  • High Priest: Non-ascended like heralds, but not from the same series, and can serve as a worthy replacement in case something would happen. They can be served as part-time workers in case the originals are busy with some jobs. Co-Godhood is accepted depending on the approval of the originals, usually if the co-deity is from the same series.
  • Followers: Non-ascended characters that are not part of the Pantheon, but would probably worship this character by the fact that they share the ascended character's trope.
  • Relationships between ascended characters go here with your chosen character, it goes something like this:
    • Allies: Members of the Pantheon that are allies, those that share the same values as them and would theoretically be friends with them.
    • Rivals: Members of the Pantheon that are rivals, people who may look at your character with suspicion or a challenge.
    • Enemies: Members of the Pantheon that are foes, those who would see your chosen character as a threat, either on their pespective or yours.
    • Additional Character Relationships: Members of the Pantheon that do not fit in various relationships (examples include Enemy Mine, Vitriolic Best Buds, Teeth-Clenched Teamwork, Headbutting Heroes, Friendly Enemy, Friendly Rival, Just Friends, etc.), allies, rivals, or enemies.
    • Partner: Defines a partnership with an ascended deity and Mon-type. (if any)
    • Feared by/Fears: A deity whom the members of the Pantheon notably fear or are feared by.
    • Respected by/Respects: A deity whom the members of the Pantheon respect or are respected by.
    • Opposed by/Opposes: Not necessarily the same as "Enemies", but this is used for any deity whom the members of the Pantheon directly opposes or is opposed by (basically the opposite of "Respects") terms of certain viewpoints, regardless of alignment.
    • Pitied by/Pities: A deity whom the members of the Pantheon feel pity for or are found pitiable by.
    • Conflicting Opinion: Sometimes, the Deities argue over specific themes and philosophies.
  • Add the Intro. The intro is made up of two trivia, the Ascension Text (or just the Ascension) and The Bio. Both are necessary, but which order you use for them may vary depending on the profile in question. It may be better for one profile to have The Bio first and the Ascension second or vice-versa, although for the most part the order is irrelevant:
    • The Ascension Text: This the story of how the character got into the Pantheon and/or was ascended. There are many ways for this to happen. They may be tricked into it or have simply wandered into the Pantheon, they may have had an already ascended character bring them in, they may already be in the Pantheon (via being another deity's Herald or sharing a trope) and got "promoted", or some combination of the above. Anything is possible in the Pantheon, so use your imagination, but try to incorporate their trope into the story, if possible.
    • The Bio: A brief synopsis on the character's backstory. No need for the character's entire life/production history, but just give enough that those who don't know the character can get an idea of how the character works.
  • Now add some random trivia/facts about events/alignments/moments/fights/friendships/relations etc.
  • And some more trivia/facts.
  • And a couple of more.
    • Note: Standard amount of flavor text for Deities/Characters is 10-15 (15-20 for group profiles) at minimum to 20-25 (30 for group profiles) at maximum.

Template for Dominions profiles:

Place X, Place of (Insert Trope Here) (Alternate names/Nicknames, Fan Nickname)

  • An image, if possible. Please use official art or a screenshot for a picture.
  • Theme Song (Optional): Not important as compared to Deity and Dominion profiles but a notable mention if there is an accompanying song in use with the object.
  • Alignment: Refers to the dominion's role in their story, be it those used by villains or used by the Player Character.
  • Portfolio: Tropes associated with the dominion.
  • Domains: Things that the place has links to.
  • Relationships (Optional): Unless the location has a connection with a specific deity, relationships are optional and may not be required. However, if there are deities linked to the same series as where the dominion is linked to, note them using the relationships, this includes deities that theoretically have interest with said dominion, good or evil otherwise.
  • Add the Intro. Here the introduction of the Dominion is added with some tidbits regarding the origins of its' creation and usage in the story. You can also add what made it popular/iconic/important here.
  • Now add some random trivia/facts about events/alignments/moments/fights/friendships/relations etc.
  • And some more trivia/facts.
  • And a couple of more.
    • Note: Standard amount of flavor text for Dominions is 10 at minimum to 15 at maximum.

Template for Treasure profiles:

The name of the item in here (Alternate names/Nicknames, Fan Nickname)

  • An image, if possible. Please use official art or a screenshot for a picture.
  • Appearance: A shortened description of the item's looks with some notable features also mentioned.
  • Class: Refer to the Treasure Classification System in the Great Treasury.
  • Alignment: Refers to the objects' role in their story, be it those used by villains or used by the Player Character.
  • Theme Song (Optional): Not important as compared to Deity and Dominion profiles but a notable mention if there is an accompanying song in use with the object.
  • Museum Check: A note that says whether the item is viewable by the public.
  • Portfolio: Tropes associated with the item.
  • Domains: Things that the item has links to.
  • Relationships (Optional): Unless the item has a connection with a specific deity, relationships are optional and may not be required. However, if there are deities linked to the same series as where the item is linked to (especially the original owner of the item), note them using the relationships, this includes deities that theoretically have interest with said object, good or evil otherwise.
  • Add the Intro. Here the introduction of the Treasure is added with some tidbits regarding the origins of its' creation and usage in the story. You can also add what made it popular/iconic/important here.
  • Now add some random trivia/facts about events/alignments/moments/fights/friendships/relations etc.
  • And some more trivia/facts.
  • And a couple of more.
    • Note: Standard amount of flavor text for Treasures is 7 at minimum to 12 at maximum.

[up] Thank you! Anyways...

"HERE'S XINGO!"

And yeah, not only is he my first ascension to be ranked higher than Intermediate, he's also probably my most controversial ascension yet. The Ben 10 Reboot is a major base breaker. Just look at the comments and likes/dislikes of any video on it and you'll see what I mean.

There are worse offenders for controversial characters. Xingo doesn't even come close.

Is Todoroki good to go?

  • Domains: Ice, Fire, Heroes, Family Issues.

  • Enemies: "Hero Killer" Stain, Kurogiri, The Child Abuse Supporters, Ghetsis Harmonia, Azula, Kaldr and Lissandra, Ragnaros, Brand, Esdeath
  • Admires: All Might
  • Conflicting Opinion: Anakin Skywalker
  • Odd Friendship: Jakiro
  • Shouto Todoroki is a rather troubled young man. From birth he has been blessed with having the quirks of both of his parents, the ability to control ice and fire. But his father's extreme approach at training him, coupled with the fact that he was completely neglectful of both his wife and older children have transformed the young shouto into a bitter person, all of this amplified after his mother burned his face with boiling water permanently scarring him. And for that, he was given the position of those who refuse to be compared with his father, which to this day he despises.
  • For context, Shouto's father happens to be Endeavor, ranked as the Number 2 hero famous for his ability to control fire. Endeavor's desire for taking the top position from the number 1 hero All Might made him undergo really nasty methods involving breeding the perfect heir to surpass All Might. Needless to say, other deities who heard about Shouto's story really feel bad for him and what he went through.
  • Initially he refused using the fire powers that he received from his father, saying he would surpass him and all might using just his ice powers. Thankfully, that resentment and self-loathing that Shouto had changed after his fight with Izuku Midoriya in the Sports Festival, where Shouto not only starting using his fire powers, but also became friends with Deku and other students from his class and even gained enough courage to visit his mother again. When he ascended, he was happy to learn Deku was also ascended and he wasn't alone either as All Might was alongside him (Ironically, All Might is the one that inspired Todoroki into becoming a hero).
  • Not many people know about this outside a rare few but Shouto was among one of the three students who defeated the Hero Killer Stain alonside his friends Deku and Tenya Iida. He was not happy to learn that Stain was among the ranks of the Pantheon's villains, but thankfully Stain doesn't intend to target him as Shouto earned his respect for acting like a true hero.
  • Many have noted that both Shouto and Zuko share a lot of similarities like the burn scar, the Abusive Parents and even how they both slowly changed for good. Zuko was surprised that Shouto's scar wasn't from his father but his mother instead and hearing about Zuko's father Ozai makes him thankful that at least Endeavor isn't outright evil (but he isn't that far from it)
  • Understandably, Shouto despises the Child Abuse Supporters given him being a victim of Domestic Abuse thanks to his father's harsh training methods. Another person that he hates is Ghetsis Harmonia, arguably someone who is both a villain and much worse that Endeavor ever was to him, considering how he manipulated and used N for his own gains, similar to what happened to Shouto. For that reason, Todoroki and N instantly became friends.
  • He still hasn't really gotten the hand of his fire powers, mostly because of the lack of training and the fact that he refused to use it in the past, but has been trying to find a balance between his ice and fire powers. He has received some training from the likes of Elsa, Sub-Zero and Jack Frost in new techniques with his ice control and with Natsu Dragneel and the aforementioned Zuko with his fire powers.
    • His dual powers didn't stop others from wanting to use for more nefarious purposes. Ragnaros, Brand and other pyromaniacs would like him to stop using his ice powers and go all out with only his fire side while others like Kaldr and Lissandra think his ice powers would make Shouto and excellent minion for them.
  • Oddly enough, Shouto wasn't the only one who had both fire and ice abilities, as the double-headed dragon Jakiro also had that in their form of their Breath Weapon. They seem to get along just fine and some people are wondering if Shouto would adopt Jakiro as a pet or become his Dragon Rider.
  • There is a rumor that anyone who gets close with Shouto will receive a hand injury that will last forever. In actuality it's just a silly joke Deku told a few people once after Todoroki said the same thing, but he instead was being serious.
  • Became good friends with Tomoya Okazaki, first because of their similar voices, then later Shouto learned that he had a very complicated relationship with his own father when the latter injured his arm, relating to Shouto's own tale.

@Rmpdc You can add Diethard, Emma and Momoka as his followers.

Given that Black Shadow is now ascended, can I ascend Ryu Suzaku for the title A Protagonist Is Ryu?

Reasons: He is the main character of the anime (While in the games, Captain Falcon is the main character). Even his machine, Dragon Bird, has the name "Dragon" in it.

Regarding Heroic Archetypes getting too long, I think Dorothy Gale makes more sense in Heroic Attitude with her trope.

Standard repost for Worf and ideas for future profiles. I didn't get any response for the previous pages, so hopefully I will get some here.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/worf_dorn_204.jpg
  • Potential/New House: Naming Conventions
  • [tup]s:
  • Lesser God
  • Symbol: The Klingon Bat'leth
  • Alignment: Lawful Good
  • Portfolio: The Big Guy, Warrior Poet, Saying He is the Son of Mogh Whenever Among Klingons, Master Bat'leth Suvwl', The Comically Serious, Becoming Weaker But Not Anymore, The Stoic, Raised by Humans
  • Domains: War, Force, Space, Law
  • Allies: Jean-Luc Picard, James T. Kirk, Spock, Leonard McCoy, Kathryn Janeway and Jonathan Archer, Urdnot Wrex, Mata Nui, John Henry Irons, Swamp Thing, Roland Deschain
  • Enemies: Khan Noonien Singh, Borg Queen, Kalibak, Bane
  • "I am Worf, son of Mogh! I have come to take my rightful place amongst the gods of the Pantheon!" It was with these words that Worf took up residence in his new temple. All the friends he had made in the Pantheon were already waiting for him inside and threw a huge celebration worthy of a Klingon warrior.
  • Originally he shared the Proud Warrior Race Guy with Urdnot Wrex, until the Pantheon's higher-ups decided that Worf was ready to have a temple all for himself. Worf was saddened to see his old partner leave, so Worf gave him the opportunity to vent his frustrations with a friendly match. It ended in a draw. Nevertheless, they remain friends and trusted partners in battle.
  • Worf, despite being the Trope Namer for The Worf Effect and The Worf Barrage, has atoned for those actions and hopes to never speak about it again.
  • Why is Worf calmer and more reserved than the regular Klingon? This is the result of a childhood soccer match, when young Worf accidentally headbutted an opposing player. Klingon foreheads being what they are, the kid died. This tragedy convinced Worf to rein in his Klingon passion.
  • Quick to disprove the uselessness of the klingon bat'leth thanks to his years of experience. That said, he seems to prefer using a mek'leth in combat, a machete-like weapon half the size (and therefore much easier to carry around).
  • Whenever he goes to the House of Food, he always orders a glass of prune juice. "A warrior's drink", he says.
  • He's often confused with Mata Nui, John Henry Irons, Swamp Thing, Kalibak and Bane.
    • Very good friends with Mata Nui, Steel and Swamp Thing, often practicing their combat skills and discussing their relationship with their fathers. Mata Nui admitted he wasn't born, he was created by the Great Beings, but ultimately felt glad he was given a purpose for his existence. Steel joked that Mata Nui should refer to himself as "Mata Nui, Son of the Great Beings" to command respect; something that got Mata Nui and Worf in deep thought.
    • Does not take it kindly that Kalibak and Bane use their strength to hurt others. While he feels sorry for Kalibak's servitude under a horrible father and Bane's terrible childhood, he cannot ignore the innocent lives they have destroyed and he has sworn to fight them with all his strength.
  • Once engaged Roland Deschain in a gunfight to test each other's skills. To avoid any permanent injuries, Roland had filled his guns with blanks and Worf had set his phaser to stun. Although Worf wasn't as quick on the draw as Roland, he still proved a credible challenge to the gunslinger. Ultimately, the gunfight ended in a draw and both fighters earned each other's respect. They parted with this exchange.
    Roland: "Never forget the face of your father, Son of Mogh."
    Worf: "Never, Son of Steven."
My suggestions for future tropes in the Pantheon.
  • Mayuri (Arc Hero and/or Non-Serial Movie) - The Spirit whose name is in the title of the movie. She gets a bit of Character Development, Ship Tease with the main hero, an Image Song and even a Heroic Sacrifice to conclude her story. Within the Pantheon, she could have interactions with characters that also found themselves in similar circumstances with her.
  • William T. Riker (Growing the Beard) - As you've read before, I've developed an interest in Star Trek and I can find evidence that many stories were considered generic and unremarkable until they eventually found their groove. Riker could have good interactions with some of the characters coming from those stories. Also, I think Riker would get along with Kirk (Riker is an anagram of Kirk with an added r).
Any feedback is much appreciated.

An update on night gobbo.

Skarsnik, God of Goblins (Warlord of the Eight Peaks, King of the Eight Peaks, King under the Mountain, Runt, RuntGit)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/warlord_skarsnik_with_gobbla.png
  • Lesser God, though he has Gobbla to back him up.
  • Symbol: The Crooked Moon Tribe emblem, a yellow smiling and evil looking moon with a crooked nose on a blue background.
  • Alignment: Chaotic Evil
  • Portfolio: Night Goblin, Blade On A Stick, The Chessmaster, Has the Giant Cave Squig, Gobbla, who he saved and befriended as a young Squig, Even Evil Has Loved Ones, Large for a Goblin
  • Domains: Goblins, War, Strategy, Cunning, Pets
  • Allies: Gork and Mork, Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka, The Techies, Dr. Boom, Redcloak
  • Rivals: Jareth
  • Enemies: Thorgrim Grudgebearer, Emperor Karl Franz
  • Herald: His ever faithful Cave Squig Gobbla.
  • Chieftain of the Crooked Moon Tribe and the most powerful Night Goblin Warlord, Skarsnik is considered by many to be one of the most cunning Goblin Warlords of all time, and for good reasons. What makes Skarsnik different from all other Goblin Warlords (and goblins period) is his great intelligence that makes Skarsnik an effective ambush strategist. All other goblin and orc warlords acknowledge Skarsnik's rulership of Karak Eight Peaks and the mountains surrounding it.
    • Skarsnik is never alone, for he is always accompanied by his loyal companion, the Great Cave Squig Gobbla. Ever since he saved the squig from death when it was a squigling, the ravenous and enormous squig became eternally loyal to the Night Goblin, saving his life many times.
    • Most of the pantheonic deities isn't sure when or how Skarsnik made it into the pantheon. All that's known is that the quiet and rarely seen former god of goblins was gruesomely killed and eaten in an ambush by Skarsnik and Gobbla before anyone even knew what was going on. Their title, throne and temple was all taken by Skarsnik in the aftermath. It raises the question of how Skarsnik and his squig companion entered the Pantheon unseen in the first place, though it's generally agreed that Mork (or possibly Gork) is somehow responsible for that.
  • To Skarsnik's constant irritation, his intelligence can't help with the problem with goblin underlings who're naturally too stupid to properly understand his careful and thought-out plans, usually causing too many plans to be foiled because his fellow goblins were too stupid. That's why he can appreciate goblins who're smarter than the usual kind, such as the Techies. Sure, they're not that bright, but they know how to make some real bad bombs!
    • He can also appreciate Redcloak, a goblin cleric who is also known to be intelligent and cunning. Skarsnik also realized that the goblin is being tricky on his so-called master, but has kept quiet on that, being interested to see if Redcloak can successfully manipulate the lich to the very end.
  • Scoffs upon Jareth's title as the Goblin King. He don't care if there's many goblins who follow Jareth's rule, Skarsnik don't consider him a true gobbo!
  • He was shocked to hear that in the War of the Ancients, the defender Disruptor has an item set that makes him and his raptor mount resemble Skarsnik and Gobbla respectively.

Day 1 repost, 3 [tup] (Aerial, faso, Master)

Yanmega, Goddess of Monster Dragonflies (The Ogre Darner Pokémon)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/469yanmega.png
  • House: Insects
  • Rank: Lesser Goddess
  • Symbol: Her tail
  • Alignment: True Neutral
  • Gender: Female
  • Ability: Speed Boost
  • Moveset: Bug Buzz, Air Slash, Ancient Power, Protect
    • Z-Move: Savage Spin-Out
  • Portfolio: Scary, gigantic dragonflies, fragile special attacker, Bug- and Flying-Type, generating shock waves through wing-flapping, based on the meganeura
  • Domains: Dragonflies, Girth, Flight, Agility, Power, Antiquity
  • Allies: Team Rocket (especially Jessie), N, Hareta, Scyther, Heracross, Pinsir, Beedrill, Vespiquen, Volcarona, Florges, The Pikmin
  • Rivals: Scolipede
  • Enemies: Ghetsis, Pokémon Hunter J, Lysandre, Ripto
  • Opposed by: Misty, Dark-, Psychic-, Fighting- and Grass-Types (notably Chesnaught and Celebi), Donkey, Diddy and Dixie Kong, Link, Mario and Sonic the Hedgehog
  • Opposes: Rock-types
  • Object of affection to: Sparx
  • High Priestess: Megaguirus
  • Looking like something that came out of a sci-fi/horror Z-movie, Yanmega is a dragonfly-like Pokémon that stands at a staggering 6'03 (1.9 meters); she was the largest Bug-Type Pokémon in existence when she debuted (she has since been surpassed and is now at fourth place... which is rather horrifying to think about). Her considerable girth, frightening appearance and ferociousness in combat convinced the higher gods that she was worthy of having a position in the Pantheon.
  • Yanma can only achieve this form by training while wielding a power that channels ancient times. This gives her some common ground with Fossil Pokémon; however she avoids them because all of them are Rock-Types, which can easily squash her.
  • Has a rivalry with Scolipede because he has the title of "largest bug in Pokémon", which used to belong to her (Buzzwole and Golisopod are also larger than her, but they came later and are still smaller than Scolipede).
  • It's been noted that her name would sound kind of funny were she ever to be bestowed with a Mega Evolution.
  • Is yet another bug for Misty to be terrified of, which is made worse by her gigantic size and all-around terrifying appearance, not to mention some of the things her species is known to do in battle (biting foes' heads off and flapping her wings to cause critical internal damage to them).
  • Scientific records usually rave about her powerful jaws, however deities have noticed that she is rather pathetic in physical combat and far more powerful using energy-based attacks from a distance.
  • Jessie was happy to see a Yanmega ascend to the Pantheon since she wielded one while chasing Ash and Pikachu through Sinnoh, and occasionally brings food to her temple. In return, Yanmega sometimes aids Team Rocket in trying to capture Pikachu. Ash and Pikachu have learned to be wary of her because of this. But even with her considerable firepower, it still doesn't go over well for Team Rocket, and she ends up being blasted off with them.
  • N and Hareta love her like any other Pokémon, but wish she wouldn't help Team Rocket. On the upside, she appears to dislike the other evil teams. Like all Pokémon, she hates Ghetsis and J on principle for mistreating Pokémon and viewing them as tools for their ambitions. She obviously has no reason to approve of Lysandre's mass extinction goals either. She's indifferent towards Cyrus and, ironically, Giovanni (her loyalty is to Jessie, and to a certain extent James and Meowth, but she doesn't see a reason to be loyal to their boss).
  • Yanmega, like most Pokemon, isn't actively malicious, but she can be very violent and dangerous. Deities who tread carefully around Yanmega include the Kongs, Link, Mario and Sonic, as they have had to deal with monstrous dragonflies attacking them in some adventures.
  • Pokémon that find her particularly fearsome include Celebi and Chesnaught, as they take quadruple damage from Bug Buzz and Air Slash respectively.
  • The Pikmin perceive her in a better light because of the Nectarious Dandelfly that gave them precious nectar. She is revered by them to a certain extent. She has noticed this and intervenes to protect them whenever they or their temple are being threatened.
  • Yanmega has been seen showing deference to Florges and carrying out requests from her. This goes back to the partnership the two species had in order to cure a sick Floette (Florges' previous stage). Pinsir and Beedrill were also involved in this.
  • The tenants of the House of Dragons think she's interesting. They joke that a dragonfly of her size isn't a dragonfly anymore, but a downright dragon. They think it's a waste that she's not Dragon-Type. She can't learn Dragon-Type moves through any method, though.
  • Sparx finds himself infatuated with her, against his better judgement (considering she'd most likely eat him if she was hungry and he happened to be around). When Spyro pointed out to him that she's way too big for him, Sparx replied that he likes women with meat on their exoskeletons. Yanmega just ignores him.
  • She wasn't amused to hear about Ripto scaring baby dragonflies to put his dastardly plans in motion one time, so she has committed to fight him as revenge. She has agreed to work alongside Spyro to achieve this (much to Sparx' delight).

[down]Guess I should reword it.

Standard repost of Cryogonal. Anyone else want to vote for Nice Holystone?

Cryogonal, Deity of Sizable Snowflakes (The Crystallizing Pokemon)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/250px_615cryogonal.png
  • Votes: 3(fasoman1996, Master Hero, Aerial Queen)
  • Date of ascension: 7 December(repost 5 December)
  • House: Water and Ice (House of Nature)
  • Lesser Deity
  • Symbol: A very reflective snowflake
  • Alignment: True Neutral
  • Ability: Levitate
  • Gender: Genderless
  • Moveset: Freeze Dry, Solar Beam, Flash Cannon, Acid Armor
    • Z-Move: Subzero Slammer
  • Portfolio: 3 Foot 7 Snowflake, Extraordinarily Versatile Movepool, Badass Mustache, No Biological Sex (can still learn Attract), Squishy Wizard, Perpetual Frowner, Literal Ice Mon, Our Monsters Are Weird
  • Domains: Ice, Snowflakes, Reflection, Caves, Minerals
  • Allies: Lapras, Regice, Articuno, Victor Fries, Kaldr and Lissandra, Queen Elsa, Ice King, Olaf
  • Enemies: Ghetsis Harmonia, Hunter J, Heatran, Brand, Ragnaros the Firelord, the Bittercold, Bright Man
  • Opposes: Any other fire or rock-related deity
  • Annoyed by: The House of Love
  • In cold caves, snow clouds can give birth to a very strange Pokemon. Cryogonal, known as the Crystallizing Pokemon, is made out of ice crystals and essentially a giant snowflake. While pathetic when it comes to physical offense and defense, Cryogonal has excellent special defense and great special attack. With its decent speediness, the Pokemon is a good representation of the Glass Cannon attributes Ice types normally have.
  • Utilizes ice chains to have its prey captive, then freeze them at -148 degrees Fahrenheit. Some think it eats prey similar to how the Wampa eats its prey. Cryogonal's name is derived from "cryo-" and "polygonal". Doesn't seem to cry, and always frowns. This is probably due to having a literal Frozen Face.
  • As a living snowflake, Cryogonal prefers cold conditions and gravitates towards that spread ice. This gets him close to more negative ice users like Kaldr and Lissandra, Mr Freeze and the Ice King. With Lissandra, it likes the idea of an icy land being spread more so it can live comfortably in more places. This does not make Cryogonal evil however, just preferring the cold. It gravitates towards Queen Elsa for the same reasons.
    • Is on good terms with Olaf, due to being a being made of living ice like itself.
  • For a partner, Cryogonal has decided to choose Yoshino because of her affinity with ice. Because she can generate cold and ice, she helps the Crystalline Pokemon stay solid and healthy.
  • Cryogonal is an anomaly in being one of very few genderless Pokemon who can use Attract, which includes Mew(who can learn every TM), the Staryu line, Minior and Dhelmise. A move that cannot work on or against genderless Pokemon. The House of Love are baffled by this and trying to study it to further research into love within the Pokemon world. Cryogonal doesn't seem to like them that much, as the Pokemon has formed a complex about love.
  • Being a living snowflake, Cryogonal hates anything related to fire or rocks. While most Pokemon are OK with one another, this is not the case with Cryogonal and Heatran-the Crystalline Pokemon is fearful of Heatran due to his massive resistance and type coverage against it. Opposes Brand and Ragnaros as well due to desiring to spread fire everywhere, and like all Pokemon opposes Ghetsis and Hunter J. And while they are both snowflakes, there is no love shared with the Bittercold.
  • Hates bright lights, due to being sensitive to them and sublimate easy. The fact that it can learn Solar Beam hasn't registered with this hatred. It would rather stay in the dark part of the House of Light And Darkness. Really doesn't like Bright Man.
  • Brycen, the most well-known owner of a Cryogonal, is also a movie star in the Pokestar Studios as the villain Brycen-Man and sometimes as Mecha-Cop. The Cryogonal in the pantheon seems interested in this, and as a result sometimes wanders into the House of Theater. It has gotten the job of making ice effects for the movies, and is sometimes used as an antagonist. A one-time anime villain styled himself Cryogonal Man(though didn't have a Cyrogonal), interestingly enough.
  • Looks kind of like Sinistar except made of ice. Some of the gods in Gaming wonder if there was an intentional reference or if it's just a neat coincidence. Cryogonal has responded by using paint to cosplay as the Sinistar during Halloween.

On that note, here is the last draft for Todoroki.

Shouto Todoroki, God of Unwanted Paternal Comparisons (Shoto Todoroki, FireIce, Icyhot)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/todoroki.png
  • Thumbs: 3 (RJ, Master, Rin)
  • Potential House: Family Dynamics
  • Intermediate God
  • Symbol: His left eye, surrounded by a burn scar
  • Theme Song: Kimi no Chikawa
  • Alignment: Neutral Good
  • Portfolio: The Ace, Astonishingly Appropriate Appearance, Awesome by Analysis, Hates being compared to his father, Bishōnen, Broken Ace, Combo Platter Powers, The Comically Serious, Dark and Troubled Past, Defrosting Ice King, Duality Motif, Elemental Hair, Fire/Water Juxtaposition, Hybrid Power, Multicolored Hair, Mismatched Eyes, Scars Are Forever, Socially Awkward Hero, The Stoic, Troubled, but Cute, Youngest Child Wins
  • Domains: Ice, Fire, Heroes, Family Issues.
  • Allies: Izuku Midoriya, Ochako Uraraka, Prince Zuko, Luke Skywalker, N, Elsa, Sub-Zero, Jack Frost, Tomoya Okazaki
  • Enemies: "Hero Killer" Stain, Kurogiri, The Child Abuse Supporters, Ghetsis Harmonia, Azula, Kaldr and Lissandra, Ragnaros, Brand, Esdeath
  • Admires: All Might
  • Conflicting Opinion: Anakin Skywalker
  • Odd Friendship: Jakiro
  • Shouto Todoroki is a rather troubled young man. From birth he has been blessed with having the quirks of both of his parents, the ability to control ice and fire. But his father's extreme approach at training him, coupled with the fact that he was completely neglectful of both his wife and older children have transformed the young shouto into a bitter person, all of this amplified after his mother burned his face with boiling water permanently scarring him. And for that, he was given the position of those who refuse to be compared with his father, which to this day he despises.
  • For context, Shouto's father happens to be Endeavor, ranked as the Number 2 hero famous for his ability to control fire. Endeavor's desire for taking the top position from the number 1 hero All Might made him undergo really nasty methods involving breeding the perfect heir to surpass All Might. Needless to say, other deities who heard about Shouto's story really feel bad for him and what he went through.
  • Initially he refused using the fire powers that he received from his father, saying he would surpass him and all might using just his ice powers. Thankfully, that resentment and self-loathing that Shouto had changed after his fight with Izuku Midoriya in the Sports Festival, where Shouto not only starting using his fire powers, but also became friends with Deku and other students from his class and even gained enough courage to visit his mother again. When he ascended, he was happy to learn Deku was also ascended and he wasn't alone either as All Might was alongside him (Ironically, All Might is the one that inspired Todoroki into becoming a hero).
  • Not many people know about this outside a rare few but Shouto was among one of the three students who defeated the Hero Killer Stain alonside his friends Deku and Tenya Iida. He was not happy to learn that Stain was among the ranks of the Pantheon's villains, but thankfully Stain doesn't intend to target him as Shouto earned his respect for acting like a true hero.
  • Many have noted that both Shouto and Zuko share a lot of similarities like the burn scar, the Abusive Parents and even how they both slowly changed for good. Zuko was surprised that Shouto's scar wasn't from his father but his mother instead and hearing about Zuko's father Ozai makes him thankful that at least Endeavor isn't outright evil (but he isn't that far from it)
  • Understandably, Shouto despises the Child Abuse Supporters given him being a victim of Domestic Abuse thanks to his father's harsh training methods. Another person that he hates is Ghetsis Harmonia, arguably someone who is both a villain and much worse that Endeavor ever was to him, considering how he manipulated and used N for his own gains, similar to what happened to Shouto. For that reason, Todoroki and N instantly became friends.
  • He still hasn't really gotten the hand of his fire powers, mostly because of the lack of training and the fact that he refused to use it in the past, but has been trying to find a balance between his ice and fire powers. He has received some training from the likes of Elsa, Sub-Zero and Jack Frost in new techniques with his ice control and with Natsu Dragneel and the aforementioned Zuko with his fire powers.
    • His dual powers didn't stop others from wanting to use for more nefarious purposes. Ragnaros, Brand and other pyromaniacs would like him to stop using his ice powers and go all out with only his fire side while others like Kaldr and Lissandra think his ice powers would make Shouto and excellent minion for them.
  • Oddly enough, Shouto wasn't the only one who had both fire and ice abilities, as the double-headed dragon Jakiro also had that in their form of their Breath Weapon. They seem to get along just fine and some people are wondering if Shouto would adopt Jakiro as a pet or become his Dragon Rider.
  • There is a rumor that anyone who gets close with Shouto will receive a hand injury that will last forever. In actuality it's just a silly joke Deku told a few people once after Todoroki said the same thing, but he instead was being serious.
  • Became good friends with Tomoya Okazaki, first because of their similar voices, then later Shouto learned that he had a very complicated relationship with his own father when the latter injured his arm, relating to Shouto's own tale.

@Ronnie R 15: Looking at his profile, it says that one of his commandments to goblins are "Not to make own plans. Thinkers must die!". Given that Skarsnik is very much a thinker, most likely not.

[up] Still thinking about how he would feel about the Green Goblin. So far I think "Not a true gobbo". Unless the OOTS finds any of Skarsnik's actions offensive (though Skarsnik hates dwarves so...), I dunno what interactions they would have.

Also, since Food is getting crowded, I'm proposing the new house "Food Items" for Deities of food items as opposed to actual tropes. My one concern is that it would encourage the proliferation of tropeless deities and it would hinder efforts to give them actual tropes. Thoughts?
