Trope Pantheons Discussion

Go To

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

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

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

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

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

    Templates 
Template for adding a new deity:

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

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

Template for Dominions profiles:

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

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

Template for Treasure profiles:

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

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

[up][up] True, but with Becca and Tyler, even knowing that they're good for Alone with the Psycho could be considered a spoiler, since that's the big twist of The Visit. Not that it really is that much of a spoiler since it's Shyamalan, after all.

Late to talk about slimes since I just came back from watching The LEGO Movie 2, but there was a profile for just the Blue Slime for Mascot Mook. The profile is very short and I have no idea who knows Dragon Quest here.

  • As a child in the town of Ravens in Britannia, Ban lived by stealing from others, constantly getting chased and beaten by those he stole from. Eventually, he was caught one day and sent to Aberdeen Prison, where he met a man called Zhivago. Later on, Ban escaped the prison with Zhivago and lived in his hideout, where Zhivago taught him how to properly steal. Years later, Ban made his way to the Fairy King's Forest in order to drink from the fountain of youth and become immortal, believing that if he lived long enough, something good might eventually happen to him. However, Ban ended up befriending the fountain's guardian, the Fairy Elaine, and promised her not to drink from the fountain. Over time, the two fell in love and Ban offered to take her outside the forest and travel the world together, which she refused because of her duty to protect the fountain in her brother's stead. Ban then promised to find her brother and bring him back to the forest, which would relieve Elaine of her duties. However, a demon appeared shortly afterwards, burning the forest and mortally wounding both of them. Despite Ban's insistence that Elaine drink the fountain's water, she made him drink it through a kiss, thus making him immortal and allowing him to kill the demon. Sometime later, Ban was put on death row for supposedly having destroyed the forest, drunk from the fountain and having killed Elaine himself out of greed. After surviving 33 executions, Ban was visited in his cell by Meliodas, who wanted him to join the Seven Deadly Sins. Although initially refusing the offer, Ban agreed to join after a brief fight with Meliodas, having decided to follow him because the latter was the only one besides Elaine to accept him.
  • Upon his ascension, Ban was surprised to discover that he had regained his immortality, as he had previously sacrificed it in order to fully revive Elaine. He was also happy to be reunited with Meliodas and Diane, which resulted in him and Meliodas having an arm wrestling competition that damaged a portion of Ban's temple, which he didn't mind.
  • When presented with the option of appointing people to positions within his temple, Ban chose to appoint Elaine as his high priestess and Jericho as his herald. When the two are not busy fulfilling their duties, they often accompany him throughout the pantheon. Elaine in particular has developed a fondness for the House of Nature, as it reminds her of the Fairy King's Forest.
  • Ban is good friends with Dante Sparda, as the two share a similar appearance and taste in fashion, can heal from otherwise fatal injuries and have both lost loved ones to demons. The two are often seen either hanging out or slaying demons.
  • Ban has a strong respect for Carmen Sandiego, whose thieving skills far surpass his own. He occasionally accompanies her on her heists, although mostly just to have fun rather than to steal anything in particular.
  • He gets along well with Connor and Duncan MacLeod, who have both similarly lost loved ones over the course of their long lives. Although neither of them approve of his thieving habits, they know that he's a good guy deep down.
  • Ban occasionally visits the various immortals in the House of Life and Death. He's struck up a friendship with Jack Harkness, although he has also made it clear that he's not really interested in "dancing" with Jack, not that it stops Jack from trying to convince him otherwise. However, Ban has also become enemies with Alex Wesker, who wishes to capture him in order to splice his DNA in an attempt to become immortal.
  • Ban frequently engages in friendly sparring matches with Michelangelo, who similarly wields nunchucks. Although their first meeting initially consisted of Ban freaking out about Michelangelo being a talking turtle.
  • On occasion, Ban inexplicably becomes obsessed with Twinkies (claiming to have stolen and eaten his world's entire Twinkie supply), as well as a Cloud Cuckoo Lander and Combat Sadomasochist with a terrible singing voice. No one really knows why Ban sometimes acts like this, although many suspect that he's deliberately trolling them. Tallahassee is particularly annoyed by Ban's antics when he's like this, as Ban keeps stealing his Twinkies.

Any suggestions for Shino?

  • Respected by/Respects:
  • Pitied by/Pities:
  • Opposed by/Opposes:
  • Conflicting Opinion:
  • A member of the Aburame Clan, Shino was offered to several special breeds of insects as a nest shortly after birth. These insects then lived in symbiosis with him as their host from that point on, feeding on his chakra and, in return, serving him in combat and allowing him to perform his clan's insect-based techniques. After graduating from the Academy, Shino was assigned to Team 8, becoming teammates with Hinata Hyūga and Kiba Inuzuka. Following the end of the Fourth Great Ninja War, Shino became a teacher at the Academy.
  • Shino and his clan originally ascended into the Pantheon as followers of Rick Taylor/The Terror Mask and Agitha. Impressed by his abilities, both deities sought to grant him a title. Eventually, they settled on Pest Controller, successfully ascending him as a god, much to the pride of his clan.
  • Shino spends most of his free time in the House of Insects, seeking to find and breed new insects. He's often accompanied by Agitha and Sig, who are both quite fascinated by his symbiotic relationship with his insects.
  • Due to his insect expertise, he's frequently called upon whenever any evil insect deities start causing trouble. He's particularly shown a special interest in trying to render the Terraformars less dangerous. However, their instinctual hatred of all Humans has made his efforts to approach and reason with them incredibly difficult and, so far, unsuccessful.
  • Shino's ability to control insects has caused Oogie Boogie and Zouken Matou, whose bodies are composed of insects, to generally avoid him. While Shino doesn't regard Oogie Boogie as much of a threat, he's interested in acquiring a couple of Zouken's crest worms in order to tame and even use them against him.
  • Being a teacher, Shino frequently visits the House of School. He's also on good terms with Suzune, respecting the fact that she really cares for students despite her occasionally harsh training.

Repost for Neo.
Neopolitan, Goddess of Pint-Sized Powerhouses (Neo, Neo Politan)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screen_shot_2019_02_09_at_104427_pm.png
  • Potential House: Power Levels and Appearance
  • [tup]: 1 (Mizerous)
  • Rank: Lesser God
  • Symbol: The symbol found on her soles.
  • Theme Song: One Thing
  • Alignment: Hard to say, since her muteness makes knowing the thoughts behind her actions challenging at best, but probably either Neutral Evil or Chaotic Evil.
  • Portfolio: Combat Stilettos, Being a mute (yet still incredibly mocking), mysterious lunatic who's more skilled than her boss/partner at kicking butt with a parasol despite not looking that intimidating at first, Dance Battler, Eye Color Change, Master of Illusion/Disguise, Multicolored Hair, Avenging the Villain
  • Domains: Shortness, Parasols, Sadism, Ice Cream
  • High Priest: Jubei
  • Followers: King Wee Wee, Salvador the Gunzerker, Makoto Nanaya, Eimi/Emilia, Wildy San, Meru Otonashi
  • Superior: Monty Oum
  • Allies: Roman Torchwick and his allies, Dr. Harleen Quinzel/Harley Quinn, Misa Amane, Talia Al Ghul, Catherine Rain Bilstein, Rouge the Bat, Belkar Bitterleaf, HK-47, Nui Harime, Zonda and the Seven,Isaac Dian and Miria Harvent, Enrico Pucci, Ren Harkuryuu, The Meta, Oswald Cobblepot/The Penguin
  • Enemies: Ruby Rose and her allies, especially Yang Xiao Long, Ryuko Matoi and Senketsu
  • Evil Counterpart To: Cassandra Cain-Wayne/Orphan II
  • Enemy Mine: Cinder Fall
  • Friendly Rival: B.B. Hood
  • Pities: Wile E Coyote
  • Afraid Of: Raven Branwen
  • Opposed by: Yagyuu, Chun-Li, Karen Kohiruimaki/LLENN, Kara Zor-El/Supergirl, Laura Kinney/X-23
  • Formerly the Herald to her partner/boss/whatever-their-relationship-is, Roman Torchwick, Neopolitan ascended to the pantheon when it was noticed how incredibly short she is in proportion to how powerful a fighter she is. Neo's height has been measured as 4' 10" (1.47 meters) in heels, and she is perfectly capable of defeating highly capable fighters like Yang Xiao Long and even holding her own against Cinder Fall for a time.
  • Don't let her looks fool you, she's as ruthless and sadistic as she is adorable. She tends to get along well with other Blood Knights, like Belkar and HK-47. Ironically, one of her biggest adversaries, Yang, fits this characteristic. She loves taunting Yang (silently, of course) about how easy it was to defeat her. Yang... never takes it well.
  • No one besides her and Roman themselves knows the exact nature of their relationship. Roman's not willing to give an answer, and Neo is obviously not talking. Numerous deities in the pantheon have come up with their own theories. Most of these theories are merely them projecting themselves onto her.
  • In the same vein, nobody aside from Roman and Neo herself (probably) is quite sure how her semblance works. As far as anyone can tell, she can create physical illusions which can be seen by everyone. These illusions can be used to alter the appearance of both herself and things which she is touching. The true extent of this ability is unknown. A few of the curious in the house of Science have been talking about capturing her and studying her semblance for themselves, but catching Neo is easier said than done.
  • Pity isn't exactly the type to feel pity, but what little she does goes to Wile E Coyote. She's not really sure why, but she almost feels like she and Roman have been in a similar situation to him.
  • Nui is practically like a sister to Neo. Both find it amusing that Ryuko sounds like Yang. Ryuko is just frustrated that there's two of her now.
  • Neo considers Cassandra Cain a worthy opponent, as they're both highly skilled warriors who are famously lacking in speech. While Cassandra can speak when necessary, she rarely does due to English being her second language after fighting. She also enjoys fighting those with similar fighting styles to her own, like Chun-Li's kick-based style and Yagyuu, who uses an umbrella.
    • Speaking of umbrellas, since her ascension Neo's been getting supplied all her parasols by The Penguin.
  • Ever since she met Zonda, Neo's been trying to learn to use mirrors for her illusions in the same way that she does. Zonda believes she possesses a lot of potential. She, and by extension the Seven, is always willing to help her and Torchwick fight their mutual enemies, team RWBY. Zonda finds the kinship between them admirable.
    Zonda: "Though I'm not sure what type it is; platonic, familial, or romantic, I sense your love for Roman all the same. It's quite overwhelming."
  • Enjoys "talking" with The Meta using charades. It's unknown whether they can understand each other or if she's just screwing with everyone.
  • Feels really strange around Supergirl and X-23, but isn't sure why. Monty Oum says it's because she was created based off a cosplay of a genderbent Roman.
  • Has had something of a phobia of Raven Branwen ever since her sudden appearance during her fight with Yang. She's still trying to get over it.
  • Karen Kohiruimaki is incredibly irritated that someone who was blessed with the short height she wishes for would be as immoral as Neo is. Neo... doesn't really care.
  • Despite being reunited with Roman after his death during the Fall of Beacon, she still hates Cinder and Ruby for their roles in his demise. After a brief battle against Cinder, she agreed to team up with her to exact revenge on Ruby. Enrico and Ren fully support this crusade.
  • She once mistook B.B. Hood for Ruby, but realized pretty quickly that she was mistaken. B.B. wasn't happy being attacked for no reason, but it became increasingly clear as they interacted that Neo was a girl after her own heart. Unfortunately, B.B. wants to kill Ruby, too, so they're destined to be rivals until one achieves that goal. Doesn't mean they can't be friendly about it, though.

@yugi195 [tup] for Neopolitan. Also, her rank should be corrected to Lesser Goddess, since she's female.

@Ferot_Dreadnaught Yeah, now that I look at it, I agree that Beast Handlers fits him better. Support Powers doesn't quite work though because he can use his insects both offensively and defensively.

Been a while, but here's Epic Voice Guy again, now with more narrating. Anything to can be added or fixed? Otherwise, does he look good to go?

The following is an Honest Profile

Epic Voice Guy, Herald of Brutal Honesty and Divine Nicknamer of the Pantheon

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/qwokxlfj.jpg
Jon Bailey, a prominent Epic Voice Guy
  • Demideity
  • Symbol: The Screen Junkies logo
  • Alignment: True Neutral
  • Portfolio: The Nicknamer, Brutal Honesty, Everyone Has Standards, Not So Stoic at times, Making Fun of Movies and Video Games
  • Domains: Voiceovers, Comedy, Criticism
  • Deities Nicknamed by him: Too many to list
  • Filmmakers Whose Works were Made Fun of: M. Night Shyamalan, George Lucas, Walt Disney, James Cameron, Steven Spielberg, Joss Whedon
  • Odd Relations: Deadpool, XCOM
  • You have seen ordinary trailers, teaser trailers that tell you so little about something so far from release, trailers that reveal so much that you may as well not bother checking out the release proper, trailers that don't even try to be correct about crucial points, and literal trailers. Now, get ready for the only kind of trailer so truthful that it will almost hurt your enjoyment of something next time you check it out. Honest Trailers. Listen along to a guy with an awesome voice as he goes around talking about what to expect in a movie or video game, followed by giving your favorite and not-so-favorite characters random nicknames.
  • Enter the TV Tropes Pantheon; a place where almost every fictional character that you can think of, plus some real-life figures, is here. It's a place where everyone's expectations of heaven and hell collide so hard it becomes the only place out there where war never ends, yet people just go around minding their own ordinary day-to-day issues. If you're asking about me, I'm more or less just a voice in the middle of nowhere. Should you manage to meet up with me physically and recognize my voice, that's cool.
  • Don't expect much shock when it comes to encountering many notable filmmakers such as Spielberg, Kubrick, and Disney, sometimes together in the same room. Because seriously, in a place like the Pantheons, why wouldn't you expect notable people to be here? If anything, I'm surprised that M. Night Shyamalan even got a spot here despite a handful of his films being crap.
  • Witness among other places in the Pantheon the House of Music; a place where anything resembling coherent noise is made to be listened to by others, sometimes with the bonus of words. If it gets stuck on you for a really long time, then it's your problem. It's actually a popular place for others such as "Weird Al" Yankovic to go to perform their stuff. For all those parody songs that Honest Trailers has done, it's sort of surprising he hasn't contributed anything to them yet.
  • As one of the more notable voices when it comes to explaining movies in an entertaining manner, expectations are set in expecting others like that in the Pantheon. There's actually only a few in that field present, most notably The Nostalgic Critic. Dude, you still owe me for all that Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles merchandise crap that you subjected me to. That stage show was already ridiculous on its own.
  • Think that the Pantheon is always about war and senseless violence? Well, if you saw a villain hang out in a shopping mall casually, then congratulations, you've proven yourself wrong. The Pantheon is a place where anyone can relax if they aren't going to die. If I'm just narrating day-to-day activities of some random people, then you know the Pantheon isn't active.
  • Always evolving as the result of random internet people having too much time in their hands, the TV Tropes Pantheon never rests with...
    Deadpool: This place just can't catch a break, huh?
    E.V.G.: Deadpool?! How in the world did you even get to this profile?!
    Deadpool: Just felt like it. Besides, you know how I've managed to get involved with your Honest Trailers for my films.
    E.V.G.: Yes, I do; especially with your second movie. But now isn't the time for you to just butt in all of a sudden.
    Deadpool: Come on, I've always wanted to make fun of the whole Pantheon like what you're doing. Especially when there's other fourth-wall breakers beyond me out there.
    E.V.G.: Well go do it somewhere else.
    Deadpool: This, among other things, is why we aren't fully friends even I would like it. Until then...leaves
    E.V.G.: (Beat) If what he said about more fourth-wall breakers is true, then my job just got harder.
  • Grab your smartphone or computer, get a snack, and be prepared to spend a disproportionately large amount of time on an expansive crossover forum game...which is ultimately just a smaller subsection of a wiki website with so many articles that you may as well be looking at them even as you're reading this profile. Hell, you might even be reading other profiles from here for that matter and probably getting spoiled on things you plan to follow later on.
  • Starring...Loads And Loads Of Characters, Imagination, outdated memes, unironic anachronisms, more Pokémon nicknames, gratuituous anime moments, Five Nights too Tired, high-ranking laziness, characters that know each other because of similar voices or something, Mainstream Obscurity, and "Armageddon is the New Normal". The Most Ambitious Crossover Event in History.
  • If this place really was inspired by Dungeons & Dragons, then trying to extend it outside of an online game will be an issue. Then again, it's just a fan-game on a corner of the Internet and I can't predict what all those companies are going to think of it.

@RJ: I guess King Cold would be wary of Evolto due to him backstabbing anyone once they meet his suitable ends and Cold is not ready to lose his life during his conquest, not to mention the Mars People warning him of Evolto's threat.

@WikiaEditor: Elaine should be Ban's second Herald since she's from the same series. Also why would Tallahassee be allies with Ban if he's annoyed by Ban's Twinkie obsession? Just specify it as 'Annoys: Tallahassee'. Meanwhile, Shino could be allies with Taylor Herbert since she too can control insects herself and Shino decided to get her away from a villainous lifestyle altogether to give her a better life.

@Yugi: Makoto Nanaya is already ascended, so take her out from the Followers section.

@Donnietu: I think it's okay? Heroes From Other Realities sounds like it's for an alternate universe trope.

@R-lock: Taokaka nicknames everyone in the Pantheons as well, so the EVG probably be allies or rivals with her for that. Hell, he'll probably use one of her nicknames for his voiceovers.

Next time on Dr. Phil Straddles The Border...
