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.

What else should I add to the Golden Throne?

The Golden Throne

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/god_emperor.jpg
The Throne, as it appears in the 41st millennium
  • House: Maximum Security
  • Appearance: A massive golden throne
  • Alignment: Lawful Neutral
  • Portfolio: Gold Makes Everything Shiny, Life Support System For The God-Emperor, Portal Network, Guide For Warp Travel, Cool Throne, Throne Made of X, Powered by a Forsaken Child
  • Domains: Power, Psykers, Life Support, Ancient Technology
  • Inhabitant: The Emperor Of Mankind, since 014.M31(30,014 C.E)
  • Deep within the Imperial Palace that sprawls across the former Himalayas, under what was once Mt Everest is the Golden Throne. Dating back to the Dark Age of Technology, the Golden Throne was intended to open up the Eldar Webway for mankind. However Horus betrayed his father, the Emperor of Mankind in the 31st millennium, rendering it a massive life support for the Emperor. For over a hundred centuries it maintains his broken form, and the Astronomican which allows safe Warp travel.
  • It has been placed in Maximum Security for a very good reason-without it the Emperor would die and the Imperium would be lost. The Emperor exists in an excruciating half-life as the beacon to human Warp travel, and it's suggested that by 999.M41 the life support is beginning to fail and won't sustain him forever. On the plus side, they managed to install a text-to-speech device.
  • Requires ten thousand psykers a day to keep the Emperor a micrometer away from true death. As such, every single psychic god in the pantheon stays the hell away from it. J'onn J'onnz is utterly disgusted that this has to happen to keep humanity in the Age of the Imperium safe, and is trying to find an alternative. He is pleased to learn it can amplify psychic powers, though.
  • Though the Emperor is capable of existing as a physical being independent of the throne in the pantheon, he is still bound to it in the mortal realm(though he does have a major presence in the Warp). He is searching through the House of Technology for those who are willing to find a means of upgrading it, providing they are not xenos, to either try and regenerate him or become more mobile. The Emperor insists that gold must remains the predominant color if upgraded.
  • Those in charge of maintaining the Golden Throne were intrigued by the various means of interstellar travel in the pantheon. They are studying the House of Time And Space to as to make the Astronomican more precise and lessen the dangers of Warp travel. The Unbidden are among the forces who want to destroy it so as to make mankind easy pickings.
  • For the fact that the Golden Throne serves as the Emperor's life support, Oryx would be more than happy to destroy it not only for his beef with humanity but its proof that the Imperium of Man as a whole is apart of a bygone age feebly trying to cling to existence. The irony of someone like Oryx saying this wasn't lost to the Emperor. Come to think of it, anyone with a grudge against humanity wants to destroy the throne.

[up]Restructuring. Still getting approval. Speaking of, here it is again.

HotmanX32 has mandated a huge change, which Camilla and I have called the Persona Overhaul. There have been too many according to Hotman. Umm...

Extended discussion here. It includes reasons for why the change is taking place.

New page here.

Unfortunately, this means changing…

  1. All Pantheon stories from Muse Hysteria onwards.
  2. Even the Pantheonic Rebellion will have to change to retcon the Witches to Personas thing that got me started on this in the first place.
  3. By extension, the profiles for the Cutie Mark Crusaders, Gentaro Kisaragi, Carly Nagisa/Carmine, and possibly more. No more Broken fillies, hopefully. So, yay?

Just thought I'd let you know. Hotman hasn't made it official yet, but it should be.

Repost:

Minerva McGonagall, Goddess of Stern Teachers

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/minerva_mcgonagall.png
  • Proposed House: School
  • Symbol: The Gryffindor crest
  • [tup]s: Ferot, Time Lord Victorious
  • Intermediate Goddess
  • Alignment: Lawful Neutral, at times Lawful Good
  • Portfolio: Stern Teacher, Badass Teacher Who's Very Protective of Her Students, Old Master Who Holds Well in a Fight, Badass Bookworm, Authority Equals Asskicking, Animagus
  • Domains: Teaching, Respect, Toughness
  • Superior: J.K. Rowling
  • Allies: All the Hogwarts staff and students (specially Gryffindors), Athena, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda, Matilda Wormwood
  • Enemies: Lord Voldemort, Dolores Umbridge, Agatha Trunchbull
  • Ascended in recognition of all her good service to all groups possible - Hogwarts, the Order of the Phoenix, the main trio (Harry, Ron and Hermione) - while continuing to be a no non-sense professor that would both recognize good students and remove points from felonies.
  • Hangs out with her two predecessors as Hogwarts Headmaster, Dumbledore and Snape - the latter, even if she had her share of conflict with him in the past. She is also on amicable terms with Slughorn, even if he headed the rival Slytherin house, and Minerva looks down on him giving preferential treatment to students out of self-interest.
  • Basically everyone in the House of Magic wants to schedule classes with her. McGonagall's standout talent is Transfiguration, which she taught at Hogwarts, and makes her highly skilled in giving life to inanimate objects, specially those who can serve as makeshift warriors and guards.
  • Has gained the godly support of the goddess Athena, who considered McGonagall more than worthy of having her Roman name. Upon their first meeting, for some reason Athena felt the teacher looked like the nymph Thetis.
  • She has gotten along with the two best known Jedi "teachers", whose Force powers even resemble some magic spells: Obi-Wan, who is also a stoic, no non-sense mentor; and Yoda, who for being quirky and small reminds Minerva of professor Flitwick.
  • Was livid upon meeting Umbridge again, given Minerva was a fierce opposer of Dolores' time at Hogwarts, making the usually law-enforcing teacher more than willing to break rules only to make the "High Inquisitor" miserable.
  • Due to Minerva not being favorable to Divination - though she begrudingly helped Sybill Trelawney after Umbridge unceremoniously and cruelly sacked her - she is not well liked by those in the house of Prophecy.
  • Some of the most scholarly deities laugh behind her back at how "McGonagall" is taken from one of the worst poets ever.
  • Minerva grew an instant dislike for Agatha Trunchbull, an evil teacher who is as bad as Umbridge, if not worse for physical abuse. Given Matilda stood up to Trunchbull, she instantly got McGonagall's approval, and she was intrigued that she has excellent intelligence for someone of her age, along with psychic powers comparable to a wizard with much training in Spells.
  • Given she can turn into a cat, Minerva has at times hid in the House of Felines, and some of deities there tried to befriend her. Given she can't speak as a cat, it's mostly fruitless.

And one I wonder if someone can help.

Not finished yet, but here's what I got so far...

The Martians, Unholy Race of Malicious Aliens

Martian Girl
  • House: Aliens
  • Intermediate Deities as a whole; Lesser Deities individually
  • Symbol: A flying saucer. Alternatively, their big-brained faces.
  • Theme Song: Mars Attacks! Main Title
  • Alignment: Chaotic Evil
  • Portfolio: Affably Evil, Alien Invasion, Armies Are Evil, Ax-Crazy, Brain Monsters, Civilization Destroyer, Utilize Disintegrator Rays, Sought to destroy Earth, bbecause they thought it was funny, Jerkasses, Little Green Men, Raygun Gothic, Trolls, We Come in Peace — Shoot to Kill, Defeated by the playing of “Indian Love Call”
  • Domains: Mars, Aliens, Invasions, War, Destruction
  • Followers:
  • Allies: Marvin the Martian
  • Rivals: The Harvesters
  • Enemies: Agents K and J, Master Chief, Commander Shepherd, X-COM, The Doctor, John Carter, Dr. Louise Banks, the Heptapods, Squidward Tentacles, Popeye the Sailor, Bugs Bunny, Erma, Optimus Prime (and by extension, all ascended Autobots and Decepticons)
  • Opposed by: The Daleks
  • Complicated Relationship with: Zim
  • In its plan to conquer Earth, Mars sends out flying saucers through space carrying deadly weapons. There, the Martians destroy much of Earth’s population by burning the cities. Why? Because it's fun!!! They enjoy killing people and destroy buildings; they even play bowling with the statues at Easter Isles and pose for photos in front of temples as they are blowing up.
  • It was one peaceful day in the Trope Pantheon, until several gods reported a fleet of flying saucers flying across the sky. Soon, reports of these sightings were brought into the Main House. When one of the flying saucers landed on the Pantheon, many people arranged a meeting with the Martian Ambassador. However, everything didn’t go as planned as the Martians proceed to vaporize everyone there. Several military forces from the House of War attempted to fight back against the Martian army, but most of their weapons turned out to be useless.
    • The destruction lasted for several days until one day, a few of them approached someone listening to some music on their headphones. Unfortunately for them, the music that the person is listening to is Slim Whitman’s “Indian Love Call.” This caused their heads to burst like balloons. Eventually, the rest of the Pantheon took notice of this by broadcasting said song on the radio and using it to defeat their enemies.
      • Afterwards, many people are undecided with what to do with these Martians. However, an agreement is reached that they should stay in the Pantheon.
  • Among several people who have been active in trying to take down the aliens, they include XCOM and the Men in Black, both of them being agencies dedicated to eliminating malicious aliens. The Martians also have to deal with the likes of Master Chief and Commander Shepherd.
  • They have a rivalry with the Heptapods on which alien invader race is the deadliest. Whenever the two races cross paths in the same area, expect more destruction than what one can expect.
  • They don’t like the Doctor due to his ability to outwit the aliens. Their relationship with the Daleks isn’t any better, for obvious reasons. However, the Daleks believe that the Martians’ whole “invade and destroy” schtick is a little too similar to their own.
  • For some reason, their language only consists of high-pitched “acks.” Attempts by linguists such as Dr, Louise Banks were made to translate their language in order to understand their culture, but the Heptapods warned her about the potential danger that the aliens possess.
  • Regarding their interaction with other deities associated with their home planet, they get along with Marvin the Martian. In turn, this made them enemies with Bugs Bunny as he’s an expert at outsmarting villains in comedy settings like Marvin himself. John Carter sometimes squares off against the aliens.
  • Their relationship with Zim is complicated. Personality-wise, Zim would fit them, but he later learned that Mars was turned into a Planet Spaceship, he hijacked it to smush Earth, then got into a dogfight with Dib, who was piloting Mercury. This caused Mars to fling out of the solar system. While the Martians didn’t like what Zim did to their home planet, they at least tolerated his comedic villainy.
  • At least once has Popeye had an encounter with the Martians, When several of them landed in Sweethaven, they were intercepted and then hypnotized by the Sea Hag into attacking Popeye for her. They were nevertheless defeated by Popeye in a spinach-powered beatdown, which broke their hypnosis, and they betrayed the Sea Hag through Defeat by Modesty (It Makes Sense in Context) before leaving Earth out of a newfound fear of Popeye.
  • They are frightened to encounter Erma given that she once tried to dissect a living Martian.
  • Because of their weakness towards corny folk country music, they have a disdain towards several Dreadful Musicians, notably Squidward Tentacles.

@Martians: Um, given how many malicious aliens there are in the Pantheon (The Harvesters having caused quite the scene), the welcoming committee would be a lot more cautious and sufficiently more prepared.

@kingvideogames: Um, for Magolor, the fact that he casually blows off his transgressions would also he something Sunset Shimmer notes, though the fact that he was forgiven absurdly quickly can cause a smidgen of envy.

@Eclipse: "There is no amnesty between either."? Shouldn't that be animosity?

You know of any deities who've needed to work off their sentence?

The Sinner, Deity of Sentences Longer Than One's Lifespan

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/the_protag.png
Two of their more common guises.
  • Intermediate Deity
  • Symbol: Their barcode
  • Alignment: Neutral Good
  • Portfolio: From a Crapsack World with Post Peak Everything, A Starting Life Sentence of 1 Million Years Because of Lost Memory, Very Customizable (Even A Chance For Two-Toned Hair), Sentence Reduction By Doing Missions, The Leader, Human Resources, Made of Iron, Nerves of Steel, Zero Resolved Plotlines, accomplished Better With Teamwork, Very Slow Regeneration, Earning Swimwear For Working Off Their Sentence
  • Domain(s): Punishment, Parole, Rights
  • Heralds: Their Accessory (Robot Buddy/warden), their ally Sinners
  • Followers: Sengoku, Merrill "Benten" Yanagawa, Gabimaru "Gogul" Rikiya, Kanae Kazaki, Leon Garcia de Asturias, Solomon Roka, DuVaul
  • Allies: Guts, Maximus, [[ Snake Plissken]]
  • Enemies: Cletus Cassidy/Carnage, Bondrewd
  • Fears: Judge Dredd
  • Pities: River Song, Aleph
  • Opposes: Earl of Lemongrab
  • Sentences for crimes usually come in the form of years served in prison/parole, and usually the worst is a life sentence. And then there are cases with sentences far longer than one can expect to pay with their lifespan, sometimes ridiculously so. The Sinner got a million year-long sentence after birth for being a waste of human resources. "Thankfully", doing work for their Panopticon helps reduce the sentence…by tens of years (or tens of thousands of years for particularly hard or important ones). Usually, this work comes in the form of reclaiming kidnapped Citizens, repelling assaults by other Panopticons, scavenging resources, and other such necessities. With such a record, the Court decided to bring them to the Pantheon for such an unbelievable record after their plot (or whatever events remotely resemble it) was resolved.
  • Now that they're finally relieved of service of their Panopticon by way of their ascension, at long last, they have achieved true freedom; they can live however they want, they can keep whatever they want (as long as they can afford it), and there are no restrictions on who they can talk to (though who they wish to talk to still has the right to refuse conversation). Unfortunately, this has also left them at a loss on what to do, having been so used to following orders for so long. Fortunately, the GUAG were the first to approach and invite them to their ranks.
  • While they still have their "Accessories" with them, they're no longer tasked in keeping their Sinner in line and adding/reducing years to their sentence. Instead, they just serve to keep their Sinner updated on whatever current mission they're on, general advice, and companion in battle.
  • The Sinner's weapons of choice are a melee weapon and ranged weapon specialized for taking down large mechs called Abductors. These range from knives, polearms, and brass knuckles for melee to handguns, flamethrowers, assault rifles, sniper rifles, autocannons, and portable artillery. They also have much more durability, agility, and might than an average human to ensure their survival in harsh conditions.
  • Due to their Panopticon life, they treat civilians, especially those who have valuable intel, science skills or are otherwise knowledgeable in essential non-combat stuff, with unnaturally high regard, even deeming their safety more important than whatever current mission they're on.
  • Having been subject to a ridiculously long life sentence, they're always on edge whenever Judge Dredd is around; his world's judicial system also delivers long sentences, and unlike their world has very little hope for parole.
  • As fellow deities who've had to win their freedom, the Sinner sympathizes with Guts and Maximus, even though their freedoms were more easily won compared to theirs, in which the Anti-Hero and the gladiator were appalled that the Sinner had to serve that many years, nay, millennia''.
  • They know there are others who've had longer-than-life sentences in the Pantheon, and some of them absolutely deserved them, such as Carnage.
  • Due to how Human Resources are a premium in their world, they despise those who abuse them, such as Bondrewd. There's also the fact that he experiments on children, unlike how the Sinners rescue Citizens who then help make items for them.
  • One of their weapons is the Ibara Hookshot, which was noted to be like the Maneuvering system used by the Attack on Titan deities.
  • Are frightened by the prospect of the Imperium of Man's Penal Legions, who are sent to suicide missions even the Imperial Guard aren't sent to, with a promise of forgiveness if they die, and freedom on the very, VERY small chance they live. But given how much of a Crapsack World the Imperium is from, which is much worse than their own…

What can I add to this?

Wilhelmina Vlad 'Mina' Tepes, Akira Kaburagi Rēgendorf, and Yuki Saegusa, the Divine Vampire-Werewolf Love Triangle

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dance_in_the_vampire_bund_chars_0.jpg
  • If you still doubt there is a love trangle between them, you can look at it this way. Instead of Akira in the middle with Mina and Yuki, think of it as Mina loving both Akira and Yuki.
    • Why? Her relationship with her is only second to the one she has with Akira (and it just might be a separate-yet-equal thing). Mina has called Yuki her closest confidant after Akira, meaning that she trusts Yuki more than people she's known her entire life, and just slightly less than the man she loves. Mina has complimented Yuki's good looks on several occasions, and Yuki has been caught openly admiring Mina's adult form. She'd even risk an international incident just to spend time in the tub together with her in Yuki's apartment (though they all now share a "house" post-ascension). Yes, there was Skinship Grope involved. For her part, Yuki has a tendency to turn a lovely shade of red at all of these.
  • They distrust Rasputin, given that in their world, he's an alias of Lord Ivanovic, one of Mina's "suitors".
  • Exclusive to Mina:
    • As an advocate for peace between vampires and humanity, Mina is naturally in the way of those who believe that vampires should keep asserting their superiority.
    • Mina's Bund has such unbelievable wealth that she can pay off Japan's entire national debt and still have more to spare.
      • The Lorenzo Corporation, a company in her Bund, developed "artificial blood" known as Stigma, which was how Mina has managed to sate the blood thirst of her kind, and lightblock gel to protect from sunlight. These commodities don't come cheap, though, even if LC gas Instant Home Delivery services.
    • something about (Remilia Scarlet)
    • Due to her experiences with the Three Clans and their lords who serve as her official fiancés, Mina is adverse to Arranged Marriages. Given she's lost her mother to them (and who was possibly raped), she especially despises those like them. Oh, and calling her mother a whore is a very bad idea, as is harming Akira or Yuki, especially the latter (since the former can hold his own in a fight).
    • Having been a victim of an impostor plot before, she's made countermeasures against any repeats of that incident.
    • Has a small private cubbyhole that contains her true personal treasures; some old furniture, an antique gramaphone, a few other knicknacks, and many, many photos of Akira.
  • Exclusive to Akira:
    • Thanks to his Beowulf Armor, Akira is no longer a Glass Cannon in the face of threats powerful enough to match his werewolf form.
    • Silver weaponry is the only thing that can really hurt him. Not even being impaled by a broken-off church steeple comes close, though that would apparently do more on Mina than him.
    • The easiest way to piss him off is to harm anybody he cares about. Even easier is to impersonate Mina.
  • Exclusive to Yuki:
    • When she isn't tending to Akira or Mina's needs or attending at Elysium Academy with (or without) them, Yuki is often writing her novels and improving her writing skills, and thus sometimes visits the House of Narrative to polish up on that.
    • Her latest work is apparently a Boys' Love story, its protagonist based on Akira, and was apparently really good enough for Mina to personally translate it to Latin, have it published in the Bund, and even actively contribute to the writing process. Many heads were turned at this and she became a recognized potential writer as a result.
    • Is often (she does her damnedest to, at least) the one who make sure Mina and Akira talk to each other and not keep secrets that could be very dangerous when spilled at the wrong moment. This was because the impostor Mina exploited this tendency during her "reign" of the Bund, and doesn't want it to happen again.

If it is alright, I would like to make one more nomination for a god in the Pantheon. After this one, I will be turning my attention to the profiles I currently have.

LOONA, Goddesses Of Sequential Introductions

Reason: For the last two years, the twelve members of LOONA have been introduced one at a time, with each member usually having an entire month dedicated to them, their debut single and subsequent music video etc. Every time they’re introduced they are added to the roster, building upon their universe (the LOONAVERSE if you will) and creating a complex and mysterious world with each iteration.

Sorry for the delay; weekend warrior with 1 fewer day than usual... and then when the profile was all but ready yesterday, my ethernet connector crapped out.

Fasoman: I emphasize with one of your posts late last week: reposting a profile on ever page is a main cause of this thread clocking multiple pages a day.

Unfortunately, if we want any traction on that, we'll have to do something about cleaning up the Pending Gods pages.

And my original idea for opening Serena's profile was to cite her prior stint as a High Priestess, (Specifically, for Hopeless Suitor,) except that the office passed to a new bearer... I still hold Serena for this office instead of the other, insofar as her odds of getting Ash have gone from Hopeless to Depending on the Writer.note 

Then there's the fact that Serebii doesn't cover Image Songs while Bulbapedia has only a few screenshots per article, so I can't verify which video has the full audio and is not a spliced-up AMV-tribute.note 

And, last night, I realized that Serena could have a more appropriate See: She could be The Goddess of Satellite Love Interests as proposed... but she could also be The Slayer Of the Relationship Ceiling with her actions in the last episode of "X, Y, & Z" Both titles would land her in the House of Love, the former among the Love Interests and the latter in the more general Romance wing. I'll list her with the former for now, but will add or swap out with the latter if requested.

Oh, and text within angled brackets <like this> are comments to be removed (or commented out) if the profile is accepted.

I will probably be out tonight and likely tomorrow night as well, so it may not be until Saturday before I can review the comments.

I have always wondered where the Exalted ideas came from in the first place. No-one here knows about the franchise

Chaos Marine Nautilus, Davekazer, Dragon-Kid, Gmodder 1234, Kanton Kage have basically abandoned their profiles. Is anyone interested in adopting anything from them? You'd have to ask them if that's OK, but I'm just wondering

Also I was planning on checking to see if Anti Anti Christ was available, and if so, my plan was to use Adam to represent it, so thankfully that saved me from a lot of hassle (and also Adam is good for Reality Warper, which is the trope he represents currently). That being said, if that trope (Anti Anti Christ) is in fact available, I would be more than happy to search for a different representative for it.

Second draft of Saria. Any more suggestions for her?

Saria, Goddess of MacGuffin Person Reveals (Salia)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/saria.png
  • Lesser Goddess
  • Symbol: The Forest Medallion
  • Theme Song: Saria's Song
  • Alignment: Neutral Good
  • Portfolio: Fan of Underdog, Girl Next Door, Girly Girl, Implied Love Interest, MacGuffin-Person Reveal, Magic Music, Nice Girl, Off Screen Moment Of Awesome, Older Than They Look, Only Friend, Parental Substitute, Plucky Girl, Virtue of Charity, She Cleans Up Nicely, Unlucky Childhood Friend, Not Afraid of Wearing Short Shorts, Having Green Rain
  • Domains: Narrative, Reveals
  • High Priestess: Luvbi
  • Allies:
  • Enemies:
  • Amused (or not) by: Tingle, Agitha, King Harkinian
  • Mentored by: Samos the Sage
  • A long time ago, there's a special place which the children never grew up and have a Fairy Companion. This place is named Kokiri Forest. Here, lives a girl named Saria which at first seems to be just Link's childhood friend which sometimes help him whenever Link plays his ocarina... But then, seven years later, turns out that Saria is actually one of the Seven Sages. She wasn't aware of this at first, but then she decided to help Link not only as a friend... but as a Sage. She was welcomed to the Pantheon with open arms.
  • Saria also noticed that her colleagues Darunia, Ruto, Impa and Zelda as well as Rauru (in the form of Kaepora Gaebora) are here too. She was amazed to discover that not only Link was ascended in the Pantheon either. In fact, many of the members from the Court of the Gods expected Saria's arrival some years ago.
    • Of course, she is not only friends with the sages from her timeline. Medli, another Sage that helped Link in an Alternate Timeline, is good friends with her as well. Salia even admires Medli's flying skills.
  • Is not amused to see that Ganondorf is in the Pantheon too, given that some years before her ascension, she sealed him with the help of the other Sages.
    • Ganondorf isn't the only one that gives Saria a headache. She still have to deal with another bad guys like Dark Link, Majora, Vaati, Zant, Ghirahim, Demise and Cia. Doesn't help that those same enemies are also in league with Ganondorf.
  • While she doesn't necessarily hate them, Saria is pretty much amused with Tingle, Agitha and King Harkinian. That being said, she seems to have a bit of respect with the latter two, given that Tingle is well... Tingle.
  • Going more into Link's social circle in the Pantheon, Saria is good friends which Navi, albeit she still calls the fairy out for being annoying, even thought Navi is much more nicer compared to Link's subsequent partners. Speaking of that, Saria thanks Midna and Fi for helping Link during his journeys.
  • When Saria was walking in the House of Narrative, she received the attention from Jak and Daxter, because once they mistake her for Keira. Likely because both have green hair. Once Saria mets up with Keira, they became friends very fast. The fact that Keira is a daughter of a Sage implies that her father was someone important that saved their world. Saria isn't exactly wrong, as Samos (Keira's father) was, in fact, one of the people that saved his world.
    • There's a rumor that Samos is taking Saria under his wing, as she is training her skills against Ganondorf's future attacks on the Main House.
  • Ange noticed that her name is pretty similar to Salia, her commander turned friend in Arzenal. However, aside of the similarities involving the names, Saria is pretty different, as she's a kind-hearted woman which cares for everyone, especially Link.
    • However, if there's a thing that Ange and Saria have in common, is that they despise Embryo. When the villain tried to have Saria in his harem, she seems to like him due to his kind nature, but when Ange and Link, alongside Hilda and Tusk showed up, they warned Saria about Embryo's true nature. The fight ended with Embryo losing to Ange again, but not before telling Saria that "they'll meet again" in the future.
  • Saria also goes to the House of Plants to see the forests, as she lived in a forest before. She algo goes to the House of Music to play her ocarina. In fact, Saria was the one that teached Link her song, which is, in fact, the legendary song of the Lost Woods.

Added interactions with the Investigative team... but there's just too many Makoto to do interactions with them all.

Kim Wu, Goddess of the Rebellious Spirit

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/image_7676.png
  • Potential House: Personality (Misc)
  • Lesser Goddess
  • Symbol: A Dragon Head.
  • Alignment: Chaotic Good
  • Portfolio: Rebellious Spirit, Tried to Defy Fate Until She Becomes the The Chosen One, Nunchucks, Being an Action Fashionista, Fiery Redheads, Stockings, Being Inspired in Bruce Lee.
  • Domains: Chaos, Good, Repose, Combat
  • Superior: Bruce Lee.
  • Allies:
  • Enemies: Gargos, ARIA, Fulgore, Sadira, Mira Fallegeros, Spinal, Riptor.
  • Admired by: Maximilian Christiansen.
  • Respected by: Ayane
  • Six months ago, if she thought she was fated to save the world, she could give them a slap in the face and picking fate the middle finger. Turns out that Kim Wu, a martial artist and design student in college, is now ascended in the Pantheon as a demon butt kicker. That and for having a 'freaking dragon'.
    • Is naturally more aligned with Jago and his team of heroes than ARIA and Ultratech, but her true grudge is with Gargos. She has been instructed by her dragon companion to prevent his arrival on her world and she would do everything it takes to make sure he stays in his own dimension. It is good for her that she found many allies in her quest, not just in her world but also in the Pantheon.
  • She speaks both Korean and Chinese, given her ancestry. That has been under debate. She first claimed to be Korean, but then switched over to Chinese in her latest appearance. It could mean that she shares ancestry from both countries, but she hasn't clarified how.
  • Some can say that she got much of her personality from a certain vampire slayer. Kim sees this as an honor; she was a fan of Buffy's style ever since she heard of her. The slayer was more than happy to join her quest in vanquishing Gargos.
  • Once when she was exploring a sewer, she stumbled upon another creature using nunchucks. Only that he was a turtle. Excited about meeting another human with his own weapon, the turtle challenged her to a dance fight off. Impressed with her skills after the bout, he invited her to his lair. After a few hours playing video games, his brothers found out about it. While they couldn't allow Kim Wu to stay for long, the other ninja turtles allowed her to keep the knowledge of their lair. They also considered to help her out as they have dealt with interdimensional conquerors as well.
  • While Kim has been around for far longer, she has taken Cassie Cage as her rivals in the ever growing feud between Earthrealm and her own. Though in this case they are more likely friends than not. They also share stories about having to deal with their lazy friends and bossing them around. And yet they admit that they do need them when it comes to diplomacy.
  • Was considered for the title Action Fashionista before Athena took it for herself. There's no animosity from her for that; she knows good talent when she sees it. She also likes how Athena changes her outfits with each game she appears in.
  • While not his favorite Killer Instinct character, Max was glad to have her back in some form. And since he played a part in bringing her back to relevance, Kim is glad to have him in the Pantheon. Max simply doesn't mention the time he kicked her ass with Gargos.
  • Comes from a long of disciples of Bruce Lee. Among them is Fei Long, whom she trains with often. But the bulk of her admiration comes from Bruce Lee himself. He was intrigued with her abilities and is willing to help her hone in those powers.
  • While training in the House of Combat, she was under attack by Ayane. The ninja suspected that Kim Wu may declare her loyalty to her rival Kasumi. After a brief skirmish Kim clarified she had no idea about the conflict. Already impressed with the fight, Ayane made a rare compliment on someone, specifically for managing to defeat Gargos. When the Goddess of Spinning Attacks left, Kim was left scratching her head over what other sort of allegiances she may have to deal with.
    • Things went much better with Ryu. While she was clearly outmatched, he was more friendly towards her. He also gave her his own nun-chucks to test out.

  • It was at a young age that Makoto inherited her own dojo due to the death of her father. She has been hard at work promoting her dojo ever since. It just so happened that she got the attention of several deities in the Pantheon. Eventually, Makoto was allowed to set up a branch of her dojo in the Pantheon. Over time the dojo became her temple and Makoto became a goddess herself.
    • Her first order of business? Go straight to Ibuki and challenge her to a duel to settle their rivalry once and for all. The following battle destroyed a lot of property that day but did not decide a winner. Even then, the two are on friendly terms. Sure they love to fight each other, but they are just as likely to help each other when one needs help.
    • Did not forget about Fei Long, who has been at the Pantheon far longer than she has. She knows that having a karate and Jeet Kune Do practitioner fight it out would increase awareness for her. Fei Long has declined the offer, wanting to focus on her movie career. That hasn't stopped her from pursuing him.
    • Has not forgotten the time when she challenged Yun to a game of Roshambo. Both are known for using Groin Attacks on their opponents. It was only natural that this would lead to a confrontation. Both are looking forward to deciding the victor once and for all.
    • Dan saw her ascension as the perfect opportunity to get back at her for beating him the first time she demolished him in combat. This time he put himself on a training regiment to get stronger over time.
    • Much of her motivation about fighting comes from Ryu. She has come to adore the world warrior with a passion. She hopes to set up a match with him both to show him what she has learned as well as to promote her dojo.
    • If it was an earlier time, she would have groaned at the prospect of Elena in the Pantheon. The happy-go-lucky capoeira fighter seemed like the polar opposite to her hard hitting no-nonsense fighting style. Yet the Kenyan charm grew on her, eventually letting Makoto call her a friend.
  • Many agree she is pound-for-pound the hardest hitting fighter in her world. What's worse, she has no qualms about where to land them. She is just at likely to punch you in the face as she is while you are on the ground or even in the groin.
    • Her immense striking power increases further when she gets angry. When that happens, her entire body turns red in rage. In this mode, she can turn any opponent into a pile of tenderized pulp in mere seconds. Yet there happened to be someone else who is even more feared in that regard. Makoto was surprised to find the title taken by none other than Mad Gear gang member Abigail. When Makoto challenged him to a fight, she was shocked to see him match her in strength if not more. Their first outing was a draw, but she is hopeful to get a second shot against the behemoth.
  • Is one of the smallest competitors in the Street Fighter tournament, yet always makes sure to take her sweet time when approaching her opponent. That's because she prefers to surprise her opponents with quick movements. She shares a lot in common with Fiona Mayfield in that regard and sees her as a rival to test her strength against.
  • Believe it or not... Makoto is actually a pretty good carpenter and can be seen in the House of Craft building wooden structures. It helps that her strength can bust through wood in order to break it down.
  • While she is by no means related to the squirrel beastly known as Makoto, no one can deny that they both love to punch people in the face. The karate master was disgusted that someone so strong had to deal with prejudice all the time. She subsequently invited her namesake for a charity bout. It was an all out brawl that trashed the place and sent both flying through the roof at one point. Yet both were respectful towards each other afterwards.
  • Can also be seen training with the likes of Chie and Akihiko in their respective temples. Akihiko gave her a sample of his protein shakes for her to try out. Curious, she put it as part of her regiment to get even stronger.
  • The arrogant man that he is, Adon claimed that Makoto's dojo was an utter joke under her father, saying it was the only reason why so few people knew about it in the first place. That of course sent her in a fit of rage. To his credit, he did manage to hold his own before making his leave.
