Welcome to the Trope Pantheons thread! Please read the rules:
- 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 means the profile will have a one week waiting period.
- For new and reworked deities, 4 is a 3 day waiting period.
- 5 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 is a 3 day waiting period.
- 4 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
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.

@Clovis: for the Houses, except 9S, because he isn't exactly cheating. The hacking he does is completely in-game.
@Wikia: That sounds good. What do the rest of you tropers think? Not What It Looks Like for A2, or Full-Frontal Assault?
Miles Morales better have some content pertaining to her. I hope.
Violetta Mondarev, Goddess of Warping Reality "Offscreen"
- Potential House: Theatric Convention and/or Space Manipulation
- s: 2 (The Wikia Editor, Mizerous)
- * Ascending on: Jan 26 (repost on Jan 20 and 23)
- Lesser Goddess (though some think she's a borderline Intermediate Goddess)
- Symbol: What symbol? I think you'll find it's changed by the time you notice it again.
- Alignment: Neutral Good
- Portfolio: Badass Normal Smoke Knight, Stealth Expert, Impossible Thief, Claims She Sucks As A Smoke Knightnote , Ninja Maid To Tarvek And Then Agatha, Guile Hero, Bodyguarding a Badass And Being Underestimated For It, Fiery Redhead, The Thief To Agatha's "Mage" and Zeetha's Fighter, Proficient In Fashion, Knife Nut, Expert In Poison Diagnosis And Treatment, Tomboy with a Girly Streak, the only non-treacherous or manipulative major character in the Sturmvoraus/Blitzengaard clan
- Domain(s): Stealth, Sleight-Of-Hand, McNinja
- Followers: Maggie Dubois, the House of Leaves, Prince Diana
- Allies: Agatha Heterodyne
- Rivals: Most every other stealthy deity (be they ninja or thief), especially the Marked Ninja
- Enemies: Klaus Wulfenbach
- Respected by: Carmen Sandiego
- Violetta knew this can mean having a residence away from Agatha. Still, the perks (a right to establishing her own relations with the Pantheon's deities, among other things) seemed worth it and so she applied. Nobody even knew she was there until the signed form was seen. Impressed with her skills, the Court of the Gods granted her a position in the Pantheon, though she doesn't quite get why Offscreen Reality Warp was why she got chosen.
- The reason why is because of a minimum of three cases; 1) is when she swapped out a hostage for a dummy without the hostage-holder noticing until after the deed was done. 2) is when she swapped a foe's stolen blade with a flower mid-swing. And 3) is when someone could sense but not see her and outed her.
- There's also the one time she stole someone's weapon from range, and as always the victim dodn't notice until they saw their not-weapon.
- The reason why is because of a minimum of three cases; 1) is when she swapped out a hostage for a dummy without the hostage-holder noticing until after the deed was done. 2) is when she swapped a foe's stolen blade with a flower mid-swing. And 3) is when someone could sense but not see her and outed her.
- She's geared with a headband-mounted red electric light she calls her Hunting Light (an infrared light that enables some measure of night vision), a grapnel gun, several hidden knives and smoke grenades, as well as who knows how many other tools in her pocketed corset such as the aforementioned hidden items, poisons, potions, and gas bombs.
- She's made rivals out of every other ninja and thief in the Pantheon due to her skills as a Smoke Knight. On top of this list surprisingly is the Marked Ninja after he noted that her skills eclipsed even his, even with the Mark of Serenity. The ability for one or one's actions to escape notice even when in plain sight is not someone to be underestimated.
- As someone who's done some impossible thefts herself, Carmen Sandiego respects her skill.
- When it comes to the thieves, she's proven an effective counter whenever they cross paths against whoever she's with (if she's against the theft at all, that is). It can get frustrating when someone knows for certain that got something only to pull up a dud Violetta swapped once they assume they're in a safe distance.
- Despite being very much a tomboy given her career, the promise of a pretty dress to fight for is a sufficient motivator (though only Agatha and her allies can utilize this).
- Other pickpocketers she's come to encounter are The Dovahkiin (who can plant poisons), the Courier, and the Sole Survivor (who can plant live grenades), and all have proved capable of also stealing entire weapons or even clothes people are wearing. The second of them approached her one day and requested her to teach them her skills with a dress like how they did with one of their companions, Veronica. The Smoke Knight turned them down for the moment, though they figured "it was worth a shot, anways".
- Joseph Joestar however took Grenade Tag to a new level when he snuck one on a vampire and ducked for cover. The vampire swatted it away… only to reveal and pull a dozen more on his back.
- As of late, there are those who worry about her current fate. Supposedly, she's been killed, but given the impossible things she's capable of, a lot doubt that is the case.
Sgt. James Heller, God of Angry Black Men (Jimmy)
- Potential House: Anger and Racial Appearances
- s:
- Intermediate God possibly Greater God after consuming Alex Mercer
- Symbol: A featureless icon of his face, depicting only his bald head, his eyes, and his collar
- Theme Song: Resurrection
- Alignment: Chaotic Neutral/Chaotic Good
- Portfolio: Never Claims To Be A Hero, Sir Swears-a-Lot, Smarter Than You Look, Shapeshifter Weapon, can call on Brawler Hunters with the Pack Leader ability, Boisterous Bruiser, Cursed with Awesome, Deadpan Snarker, Determinator, Empowered Badass Normal, Hates Alex Mercer For Infecting Him, Hopeless with Tech, Papa Wolf, Lightning Bruiser, Plague Master, Superior Successor to Alex, Viral Sonar, Biobomb Ability, Horrifying Hero, Devours Alex Mercer In The End
- Domain(s): Anger, Black Men, Viruses, Vengeance, Fatherhood
- Herald: Amaya Heller (his daughter)
- High Priest:
- Followers: Brother Mouzone, The Prowler, Curtis Metcalf/Hardware, John Shaft, Sweet Sweetback, Marcus Savage, Abdul, George Jefferson, Bob Sapp, Bad News Brown, Purna, Grace Walker, Valygar Corthala, Thundecloud, Vince Chandler, Ollie Williams, Black Steve, Sideshow Raheem
- Allies: Rick Taylor/The Terror Mask, Luke Cage
- Rivals:
- Enemies: ALEX MERCER!, Albert Wesker, Shiro Tagachi, The Gravemind, Pestilence the Horseman, Nurgle, Typhus, Thrax, Cioccolata, William Birkin, Alex Wesker, the Infested, Eren Yeager
- James Heller was already in the Pantheon for quite some time now as a follower of Rick Taylor a.k.a. The Terror Mask. Given the serious concerns with Alex Mercer being…updated with the terrible sequel's events, it was decided that it was time to find a spot for Heller, given he already defeated Mercer and consumed him in that timeline, so that there's someone on call who can match him.
- Given his primary emotional state (justified it may be), Heller was picked for Angry Black Man, which he's annoyed by, but eventually got over.
- Here's one thing you should take note of regarding James Heller; everything Alex Mercer can do, he can do, too. Sometimes more, and sometimes better. Anyone he isn't in good terms with should exercise extreme caution, as much as they would in Alex's presence. Fortunately for the GUAG, he's on their side, though he's not really used to having allies who can fight by his side yet. Fortunately for the rest, he also possesses the same weaknesses, minus perhaps a few.
- Speaking of Mercer, there are two popular theories regarding Alex's behaviour in he sequel. Either Real!Alex resurfaced and took control, or Virus!Alex was deliberately trying to create a warrior strong enough to one day fight against PariahWho? . It might actually explain his recent behavior in the Pantheon. In any case, Virus!Alex would either be grateful that Heller defeated Real!Alex, or otherwise glad that he accomplished his goal of creating a warrior stronger than himself. Either way, no matter the reasoning, because of the casualties he's mounted (not that he can call him out on that given his own actions), Heller still wouldn't particularly like him.
- As Mercer's top enemy, he's gotten acquainted with the Blacklight Virus's enemies as well. Some who oppose Heller, and those who try to get along with him.
- Among his new allies are Ken Kaneki, Labrys, and Discord (after he was "screened" by Fluttershy). As for Eren, not so much, especially in light of his actions as Kruger and his willingness to turn on his former allies and harm children to reach his goal. He's also gotten acquainted with Commander Shepard, Master Chief, Doomguy, and Isaac Clarke, though so far only Shepard is most open with befriending the infected "hero".

- Good Counterpart to: Bane
- Mutual Respect: Ruby Rose
- Respected/Pitied by: Steve Rogers/Captain America

- One day, a mysterious ship came hurtling out of nowhere. A team was sent to investigate. They found a man coming out of the wreckage. When they asked who he was, he said, "My name is Rex Tyler. I'm a member of the Justice Society of America". When the Main House learned of who he was and where he got his powers, it didn't take long to find him a suitable place in the pantheon, especially with Captain America advocating for him.
- Captain America both respects and pities Hourman as he too was bestowed extraordinary abilities by a Super Serum. His are weaker than Hourman's but made up for by being permanent. He feels compassion for the man's past situation.
- Rex Tyler is a biochemist who developed a compound he called "Miraclo", which he uses to become the superhero, Hourman. This mixture, when ingested, temporarily increases human physical capabilities to superhuman levels. These effects, as his superhero name implies, only last one hour. The side effects of using Miraclo include personality changes and addiction. Prolonged exposure can lead to developing symptoms identical to Leukemia.
- Though mostly withdrawn from the hero business, he is willing, if reluctant, to come out of retirement and use Miraclo again if necessary. This is especially true if it's to aid his fellow founders of the Justice Society of America, Doctor Fate and The Spectre. It helps that a non-addictive variant has been created.
- He does like to help The Flash and Batman foil their ice villain's schemes, albeit in a limited capacity. He has some experience fighting cold-themed villains through one of his own enemies, Dr. Joar Mahkent, otherwise known as "Icycle".
- Having a life fraught with addiction has given Rex Tyler incentive to champion the cause against dependency. He's set up a group to help those suffering from the condition, whether it be drugs, alcohol, magic, etc. None of these things are harmful in and of themselves, but addiction is enough to justify taking them seriously. This has given him the loyalty of anyone with a hatred for history of addiction or their causes. This includes Jack Harkness, who is fairly well-known for his hatred of drug dealers and Sherlock Holmes, who by some accounts has been known for overcoming his drug addiction. Although Rex has acknowledged that the chances of curing some deities are low, either because of the status quo or that the deity in question would lose their status if they were cured, he feels it would be immoral to not at least try.
- Sees Bane as an ominous reflection of his past struggles.
- J'onn J'onnz has been seen attending meetings when his cookie addiction gets really bad.
- Hates Professor Hojo with a passion. Not only does he remind Rex of one of his worst enemies, Doctor Rocco Togg, but Hojo is much much worse. Where Doctor Togg experimented on and created monstrous animals, which is bad, but Professor Hojo experiments on human beings, including his own family members, which is significantly worse.
- Popeye once tried to see if Rex's Miraclo could match his Spinach. Rex wasn't sure if he should risk using his drug for such a thing, even if it wasn't addictive. Eventually, he acquiesced and they've been seen competing in various physical competitions. Neither has been able to come out on top.
- In honor of the sacrifice of the third Hourman, Tyler (also called "Ty" or "Matthew"), who was an android who sacrificed himself to erase his death at the hands of the villain Extant, Rex is extremely friendly to all Good-aligned machines, believing all of them to be "as alive as any of us" just as Ty was. In turn, he is strictly opposed to the Grand United Alliance of Machines, who he feels are a stain on everything that Ty always fought for. This has earned him the mutual respect of Ruby Rose, who has expressed similar beliefs.
- Has had pleasant conversations with The Doctor and Doc Brown on the subject of time travel. Rex isn't the most well-versed in the topic, as he himself is not primarily a time-traveler, but he does have some knowledge through Ty, who most definitely was.
- Being two superheroes whose powers revolve around a time limit as well as having experience with neglecting their children due to personal issues, Rex and Kotetsu T. Kaburagi get along well.
I agree. Plus, she's an android, right? I don't think being naked is as significant a character trait when you're not human, even if she is very convincing.

In another few hours, the sun will rise.You can add something about Heller interaction with Delsin Rowe, since their predecessors are rivals. Delsin himself hasn't ascended yet, but he's present as a follower of Barry Allen/The Flash.
As for A2, I'd personally go with Not What It Looks Like, since it's more significant to her character and story than the fact that she is technically naked, which never even really comes up as far as I'm aware.
I don't think Jubileus and Sheba really qualify for God and Satan Are Both Jerks since neither of their personalities is really known and neither of them is particularly active in their factions' war, the angels and demons in general certainly qualify, but not Jubileus and Sheba. Jubileus is asleep and absent for most of the game, and Sheba has apparently a rather hands-off approach to her rule.
Edited by TheWikiaEditor on Jan 22nd 2019 at 10:00:57 AM
@ The Wikia Editor: You might want to consider the angel bosses of Paradiso for Angelic Abomination, while Jubileus and Sheba can represent Heaven And Hell respectively as they are the heads of such. Alternatively, have the Paradiso bosses get Angelic Abomination, Jubileus and Sheba get God and Satan Are Both Jerks
Provided better candidates for Order Versus Chaos show up, i could change Galeem and Dharkon to God and Satan Are Both Jerks
Uni catRepost since I didn't receive any suggestions.
Not finished yet, but here's what I got so far. Trying to think of how to insert Bazzardreturn's suggestion to insert Zaius' interaction with humans raised by animals (such as Tarzan, Mowgli, George of the Jungle, etc.) in his profile.
Doctor Zaius, God of Animals That Assume the Role of Humans
- House: Anthropomorphic Animals
- Lesser God
- Symbol: The Sacred Scrolls and the statue of the Lawgiver
- Alignment: Lawful Neutral
- Portfolio: Anti-Villain, Arch-Enemy to George Taylor, Fantastic Racism towards humans because he thinks that they ultimately destroy any environment they settle in, Morally Ambiguous Doctorate
- Domains: Primates, Knowledge, Bigotry
- Allies:
- Enemies: Humans, Barbarella, The MST3K crew (specfically Mike and the robots), King K. Rool
- Opposes: Grand United Alliance of Destruction
- Disapproves of: Donkey Kong and his DK Crew, King Louie
- Respects: Mojo Jojo
- Fascinated with: King Kong
- Dr. Zaius is an orangutan politician who serves as the Minister of Science for the Ape Civilization, advancing the knowledge of Ape society while also maintaining the sacred traditions of the Ape religion. Secretly, he is aware of the true origins of simian society, and will stop at nothing to ensure that secret never gets out.
- Because he’s from a society where apes serve as the superior species and humans are seen as mere animals, he was chosen by the Pantheon to represent Animal Is the New Man. Upon his ascension in the Pantheon, he was shocked to find out that the Pantheon isn’t the same as the society that he is used to. It took him some time to adjust himself to such a new place.
- The reason behind his hatred towards humans is that he thinks that they ultimately destroy any environment they settle in. His society’s sacred scrolls even warn of "that harbinger of doom — man." He is disgusted to learn about the existence of the Grand United Alliance of Destruction. His ideology puts him at odds with Barbarella given that the latter lives way into the future where Earth has become super-pacifistic and completely shuns war.
- As far as his encounter with other primate deities go, his reaction varies with each one. He is disappointed with Donkey Kong and the rest of the DK crew as he felt that they are wasting their potential. He also considers King Louie to be a disgrace to the orangutans due to the latter’s obsession with the Red Flower. For obvious reasons, King K, Rool doesn’t like doesn’t like the orangutan the same way he doesn’t like the Kongs.
- On the other hand, he seems to be fascinated by King Kong, as noted by one particular account in which he and the other apes embark on an expedition to Skull Island after seeing a Kong washed up on the shore next to the Statue of Liberty.
- He respects Mojo Jojo as an equal given their similar ideology. However, Mojo is way of wary of him because one of his first plans was almost jeopardized when all the super-intelligent apes he created started planning their own global conquests.
- The MST3K crew (specifically Mike and the robots) find themselves at odds with Dr. Zaius as they are reminded of the time they crashed in an Earth ruled entirely by apes (it involved Interspecies Romance by humans and apes to begin with and one of Mike's descendants was involved somehow). One of the apes there was an ape scientist named Bobo (who started off semi-levelheaded, but became more airheaded later on). Zaius didn’t take well on how that planet was destroyed by an atomic bomb as a result of Mike helping the apes repair said bomb.
- Is a bit annoyed whenever several deities walk by him singing “Doctor Zaius! Doctor Zaius!”
I'd imagine that Zaius would be a bit more at ease around Tarzan, Mowgli and George of the Jungle because they remind him of the humans in his universe.
Also, you could add interactions with Caesar and Koba, since they're (kinda) from his universe.
Repost of Pai Chan.
Pai Chan, Goddess of Graceful Fighting (Pai Chen)
- Potential House: Fighting Styles (House of Combat)
- s: 1 (fasoman1996)
- Lesser Goddess
- Symbol: Her Polygonal Face◊ from Virtua Fighter 1
- Theme Song: Star From H.K. or alternatively, Ai ga tarinai ze
- Alignment: Neutral Good
- Portfolio: Graceful Fighting, She-Fu, Stance System, Anime Chinese Girl, Action Girl, Braids of Action, Odango Hair, Lady of War, Frequently boasts about the strength of her Kung-Fu, Is determined to defeat her father, and prove herself worthy of carrying on his legacy
- Domain(s): Combat, Fighting, Training, Action films
- Sega Deities: Akira Yuki, Makoto, Fei-Long, X, Zero, Axl
- Other Deities: Killua Zoldyck, Yoh Asakura, HeartCatch Pretty Cures, Shana, Emilia Justina/Emi Yusa, Celty Sturluson, Mikoto Misaka
- Friendly Rivals: Chun-Li, River Tam, Ling Xiaoyu, Leifang, Mai Shiranui
- Enemies: Dural, M. Bison, Heihachi Mishima, Sigma
- The only daughter of renowned Chinese martial artist Lau Chan, Pai Chan was specially trained by her father in martial arts from a young age. However, while Lau obsessively strove on with his training, Pai's mother worked so hard to support the family that she died of overwork. Devastated by her mother's death, Pai blamed Lau and devoted her time and attention to her training in the hopes of surpassing and beating her father. As an adult, Pai also became a successful movie actress and a leading star in Hong Kong action films. After learning of her father's terminal illness, the two rekindled their relationship and Pai subsequently entered the Fifth World Fighting Tournament to prove that she had the emotional and physical strength to succeed his legacy.
- Following her ascension, Pai was happy to be reunited with Akira and the two subsequently challenged Ryu and Chun-Li to a two-on-two battle in order to improve their strength.
- When not training, Pai frequently visits the House of Theater to star in more action movies. During these visits, she often hangs out with Fei-Long, discussing plans to co-star in a movie together.
- She often trains with Makoto at her temple, having developed a mutual respect due to the fact that Makoto had successfully succeeded her father after his death and managed to elevate her dojo back to it's former glory, something that Pai strives to achieve as well.
- Pai was not particularly pleased to learn of an alternate universe in which she started off being noticeably less competent. This convinced her further to focus more on her training.
- She gets along well with Killua Zoldyck, although he's rather weirded out by the fact that she sometimes sounds like his mother. Similarly, both Yoh Asakura and the Heart Catch Pretty Cures were slightly alarmed upon first meeting her due to her voice sounding like Hao and Dark Pretty Cure respectively.
- During an occasion when she teamed up with X and Zero, Pai expressed an interest in joining the Maverick Hunters, but remarked that she would first have to learn how to use a gun. More recently, she decided to seek out X and Zero in order to receive training in gun use. They decided to assign Axl as her instructor, partly because they found it amusing that he and Pai sounded alike.
- After participating alongside Akira in a fighting tournament filled with a large variety of powerful and unusual fighters, Pai became acquainted with deities such as Shana, Emilia Justina, Celty Sturluson and Mikoto Misaka. Fascinated by their strength and abilities, she often visits each of them to hang out and have sparring matches.
He didn't like them, but he definitely prefers them over intelligent humans, as he regards those as being naturally inclined towards evil and destruction. As far as he's concerned, at least wild and uncivilized humans can be kept under control.
Edited by TheWikiaEditor on Jan 22nd 2019 at 12:01:09 PM
I feel inclined to suggest changing Sheogorath to Order Versus Chaos. He is a chaos god who transforms into the god of order, Jyggalag, who hates everything he creates as Sheogorath and immediately tries to destroy it.
Didn't Zaius hate the humans of his universe?
Would it? They are the same person, after all, and he's already mentioned in the profile as it is.
EDIT: Hmm, actually, now that I've looked into it, they aren't the same being anymore, are they? I guess that wrecks that idea.
Edited by yugi195 on Jan 22nd 2019 at 2:18:09 PM
In another few hours, the sun will rise.That would require including Jyggalag in the profile
Not helping that is we only see the real Jyggalag in Shivering Isles and that's it.

All my fault, you say...? What fault? I daresay it's all thanks to me.@ fasoman: Galeem and Dharkon fit Order Versus Chaos better, Galeem isn't a case of God Is Evil he's just the lightbringer Satanic Archetype to Dharkon's lord of darkness Satanic Archetype
Should I change Discord's trope to God of Chaos? Or should I find another example? I am considering GOLB
Edited by RJ-19-CLOVIS-93 on Jan 23rd 2019 at 8:41:34 AM
@Wikia So he'd probably see them as akin to animals, then?
Don't know much about Aesir, but I can look into him. Zaius is a pretty interesting character. I imagine the aforementioned Raised by Wolves characters, especially Tarzan, won't be happy about that idea.
Edited by yugi195 on Jan 22nd 2019 at 2:17:45 PM
In another few hours, the sun will rise.Since we've been talking about Bayonetta, how about Aesir as God of Chaos?
Yes, he would, although he'd probably still dislike the fact that they're not quite as docile and primitive as the ones from his universe. Zaius is a bit of a religious fanatic and is utterly convinced that keeping humans primitive and harmless is a divine command in order to prevent their evil from spreading.
Edited by TheWikiaEditor on Jan 22nd 2019 at 12:09:41 PM
@Sheogorath: I think someone already has him.
Check out my fanfiction account here! Right. He's presently the god of Apotheosized Mortals. I was suggesting changing his current trope. That's not a viable idea, as it turned out.
It's actually something of a plot point that he can't be completely erased.
Edited by yugi195 on Jan 22nd 2019 at 2:27:18 PM
In another few hours, the sun will rise.GOLB for God of Chaos sounds interesting. Except that wasn't he completely erased?
Uni catNah, that's what he does to stuff he eats. He did merge with Betty, but beyond physical changes and "decides to leave Ooo" he hasn't changed much
So GOLB's alright for God of Chaos?
I personally still prefer Aesir from Bayonetta, especially since he has more of a personality (several actually, if you count Loki and Loptr, his good and evil halves).
I've been looking for an alternative trope for GOLB, it seems that Obliviously Evil is available, which seems quite fitting for him. I also agree about giving the Paradiso angels Angelic Abomination.
Glad you approve of my choice.
Edited by TheWikiaEditor on Jan 22nd 2019 at 1:04:55 AM
Alright, do Aesir. I still think you should give the Paradiso angels Angelic Abomination
nightelf had Inominant the Suppressor for Light Is Not Good, but it is in the adoptables so I thought I would be allowed to choose my own. I want the Light of Destruction to take Light Is Not Good as it is a force of light from a white hole that wants to cause death and destruction, and is the Greater-Scope Villain of the GX era
Now that I'm reading about Aesir's character, I find myself liking him, too. He seems like he'd be a good foil to YHVH. Where YHVH is an evil God of Order, Aesir is a good God Of Chaos. Where YHVH is a huge believer in The Evils of Free Will, Aesir is the one that actually gave humanity free will. Where YHVH intentionally pits two factions against each other, Aesir serves as the Balance of Good and Evil. I'm sure there's more than that, though.
I'd support the Light of Destruction for Light Is Not Good, though I may be biased, for obvious reasons.
Edited by yugi195 on Jan 22nd 2019 at 2:55:20 PM
In another few hours, the sun will rise.@Doctor Zaius: Doesn't he and the other apes worship Caesar? I'd add something along the lines of Caesar disapproving of him and Zaius maybe allying with Koba.
@King Winterbolt: Add Mordecai and Rigby and the different Santa Clauses as enemies, otherwise .
As for GOLB, I'm not sure if he still qualifies for God of Chaos after Betty hijacked his consciousness and didn't have a desire to destroy anything. It seems like GOL Betty is True Neutral now.
Edited by Sawkman on Jan 22nd 2019 at 4:04:52 AM
I'm cool with Aesir getting God of Chaos
I think I remember someone wanted to do SCP-1000 for Bigfoot, Sasquatch, and Yeti. Is anyone going to do that, or do they want to make their own?
Does anyone have a good trope for Drake and Josh?
All Work vs. All Play and Cool Kid-and-Loser Friendship are available.
As I mentioned before, we could give GOLB Obliviously Evil if anyone is still interested.
