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.

  • Pities: Gregor Samsa
  • Admires: No-Face, Frankenstein's Monster, Eric the Phantom, William Shakespeare
  • "Clayface" is more a title than individual, the identity constantly shifting, but that is quite fitting for an amorphous entity. Since Batman's earliest days, the menace of Clayface has haunted him as a terrifying and often tragic figure, from a sociopathic theatre actor, to a deformed, hopelessly lovelorn madman whose touch melts flesh. The most recent incarnation, however, is Basil Karlo, an aspiring actor who sought more versatile roles. When he was disfigured in an accident, he desperately tried Renu, a chemical cosmetic that lets the user mold their features, and was used by his father to create lifelike stop motion. Things went From Bad to Worse, and Basil eventually broke into the abandoned Renu factory when his supply ran out. Caught by Batman and the police, Karlo tumbled into a vat of bizarre substance-and what emerged was a living horror monster, a being of constantly shifting clay who desired nothing more than to return to his glory days, even if he had to bury the bat alive to do it.
  • Despite his recent reforming, Basil still has a rocky relationship with Batman and the rest of the Bat-Family. While he is trying to be better, he came close to killing his friend Cassandra recently, and for now sticks to his villainous role.
  • Karlo finds a kindred spirit in Flint Marko, the Sandman, as both are humans turned monstrous, Earth-shaking supervillains. They don't usually go on crime sprees together, though, since all that mud and sand gets easily mixed up, and Sandman doesn't want a repeat of the Hydro-Man incident.
  • He can often be found perusing the House of theater. Unfortunately he has a habit of impersonating the actors and trying to take over the shows, usually if he thinks he could do better with the material.
  • Carl Fredricksen recently had a terrifying encounter with Clayface when he sought some solitude in his floating house. His favorite armchair morphed into the monster and tried to eat him! With help from Hawkgirl(who Clayface fears due to an encounter in another reality), he escaped with his life. Apparently, Karlo mistook him for Roland Daggett, the man who he remembers caused his freakish condition in said reality.
  • He doesn't do so hot against ice and cold, which freezes him solid. He's also opposed to every electricity based deity, since that element is what did him in one time.
  • Clayface isn't on good terms with the T-800 mk 2 and the Connors since they mistook him for a Skynet machine. He finds this a little ironic, since this wasn't the part he ever imagined playing in a Terminator film.
  • Hellboy says that Karlo could be a valuable BPRD agent if he'd just keep his monstrous temper and destructive powers under control. He also gets an oddly familiar vibe from him.
  • It's not wise to go over his comic history with him. He once suffered a severe identity crisis from keeping track and split into multiple Clayfaces based on his predecessors. Original Karlo went on a killing spree in the House of Theatre, while Preston and Sondra went on a honeymoon crime spree. Annie took the time to reconnect with Tim Drake and even offered to join the Titans, which went horribly when Basil had to pull himself back together.
  • He's gone on record to say Spirited Away is a favorite animated film of his. He's even expressed interest in the part of No-Face for a live-action remake, as they're both Shape-shifting monsters who form an odd-friendship with a certain young girl. No-face for his part isn't flattered, given how well americanized anime remakes usually go, and that Clayface is too much of a hot-tempered loud mouth to play him.

In the Restructure thread, I've been working on reworks on FF 9's Zidane and Kuja. I've also been working on redeeming the latter, just like I have Golbez. I could use some input on the matter. Please visit right here.

Daring Do, Goddess of Real "Fictional" Works (A. K. Yearling, Daring-Do, Daring Do Dazzle)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/daring_do_3961.png
  • Allies: Rainbow Dash, Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Fluttershy, Indiana Jones, Lara Croft, Nathan Drake, the League of Explorers, Jonathan Joestar, the Crimson Chin
  • Rivals:
  • Enemies: Zoran Lazarević, Arnold Ernst Toht, Xingo
  • Additional Character Relationships: Members of the Pantheon that have various relationships (examples include Enemy Mine, Vitriolic Best Buds, Teeth-Clenched Teamwork, Headbutting Heroes, Friendly Enemy, Friendly Rival, Just Friends, etc.) other than allies, rivals, or enemies.
  • Respected by/Respects:
  • Pitied by/Pities:
  • Opposed by/Opposes:
  • Conflicting Opinion:
  • Rainbow Dash didn't know when she had the idea for it, but after coming to a realization upon glancing at Indiana Jones while reading a Daring Do book, she sped off and began to peruse the list of tropes that haven't yet had a deity assigned. When asked who she was trying to ascend, she answered "Daring Do!"
  • The next day, after the Court reviewed her hastily-written plea (and description of the pony she wants in the Pantheon), with assistance from Dream of the Endless, Daring Do found herself ascended (she was already in the Pantheon as one of Lara Croft's followers).
  • Gets along with fellow neighbor the Crimson Chin? She's fascinated that a fictional character like him can be real outside of his comic book, while the Chin himself was initially perplexed that an author like her was first assumed as fictional, but that didn't stop him from being friends with her.
  • In regards to her work as A. K. Yearling, despite the nature of her trope, it is still mostly a secret, though now it's the author persona who's the secret identity rather than the explorer, which she finds perplexingly funny.
    • Speaking of her author work, she's rarely at her temple for that and instead works elsewhere to write oin peace due to another neighbor of hers; Xingo, who annoys her every opportunity possible. She remarks that her Rogues Gallery are easier to deal with than him.
  • Besides Lara, Daring eventually met the man she was based on; Indiana Jones. Oh, and Nathan Drake as well, and the League of Explorers, too.
    • There was also Jonathan Joestar, who was also an archaeologist and became so to understand the secrets behind the Stone Mask, even though this aspect of him wasn't that explored as much as he is more known for fighting vampires and other undead.
    • She and Indy eventually read a crossover tale featuring the two of them (a fanfic written by Lyra Heartstrings and Rainbow Dash).
    • Naturally, due to her association with them, Arnold Toht and Zoran have become her enemies, too.
  • Apparently, Twilight Sparkle's mother has some ambiguous involvement with the Daring Do books in her world, but it's not known if she's in the know on Daring's secret.
    • Speaking of that, there's been one other question she's asked; which of her identities does she regard as her "mask"* , the author or the archaeologist? She has not deigned to answer that as of yet.
  • Has an extended archive of her adventures right here. She's not saying how much of that is actual canon in her world, though, only that most of the content in that page is likely not among her actual adventures, particularly the sequels and prequels.
  • Ever since a certain incident, she's tried to take better care of her surroundings, especially when villagers might take issue with her. Because he's known to be a Walking Disaster Area, this poses a huge problem when she works with Nathan Drake on an expedition should shit hit the fan.

Replying to a previous reply, I am semi-aware of the Pretty Cure franchise and know a number of them have entered the Pantheon. I'll put them in Enemies for now, but would like to add something to it

In the meantime, I'd still like to figure out what to say for Leone of Night Raid. She's someone who scammed people of their money, while Matly outright stole in addition to falsely accusing people of heinous crimes.

That said, I think I'll change her trope to Abomination Accusation Attack, feels more comfortable and fits more with how she falsely accused people of other crimes besides rape.

Notes:

  • The entry is based on the web novel, completely translated into English. To avoid accusations of hype, the entry will not be up for voting until the anime adaptation is finished.
  • This entry is still under construction, so I appreciate suggestions and especially revisions.
  • I still need to find a theme song and a decent symbol.

Malty Melromarc, Bitch Goddess Accuser of False Crimes (Myne, First Princess of Melromarc Kingdom, Bitch Goddess (literally), Whore, Slut, Witch, Mary, Fragment of Medea Pireth Machina)

  • Votes: 0 (Delayed until anime is finished)
  • Potential House: Crime, Law
  • Rank: Lesser God (Fragment of an Overdiety)

  • Portfolio: Lying About Crimes Never Committed, Pretending to be a Loyal Party Member, Manipulator of Her Party, Abandoning Her Comrades When They Are Useless, Chronic Backstabbing Disorder, Backfired Attempts To Cheat, Fallen Princess, Karmic Rape, Target of Brutal Humiliation, Hate Sink, Conveniently Renamed, Burned At The Stake As A Witch, Physical Goddess, Goddess By Human Origin, Total Destruction Of Worlds, Destroyed By Her Own Power, Being Completely Erased From Existence
  • Domain: Betrayal, Magic, Royalty, Corruption
  • Heralds: Every other Fragment of Medea, the Corrupt Church of the Three Heroes, Tact
  • Allies: Raynare, Crimson Court
  • Enemies: Naofumi, Issei Hyoudo, Ange, Hilda, Salamandinay, Tusk, Shiroe, Akatsuki, Night Raid (especially Tatsumi and Lubbock), Emperor Calus, Princess Pretty Cures
  • Conflicting Opinions: Prime Minister Honest
  • Opposed by: Embryo
  • While she falsely accused other people before, her ascension came from her long streak of treachery with the Heroes of Melromarc, particularly with the Shield Hero. Naofumi never took it lightly, especially after he supposedly erased her and every Fragment of her Goddess self from every point in the spacetime continuum. She wants to get her revenge for that.
  • A lot of goddesses and their female followers took serious offense to her actions. Those in the House of Royalty were the most offended over how she abused her power as First Princess so malevolently in a matriarchal system and even used her mother as an undead soldier. None of them showed any sympathy when she was humiliatingly stripped of her title, literally renamed Bitch (and other similar names as allowed by the Melromarc royal decree), and became the subject of the same crimes she falsely accused people of as the 10,000th wife of a sadistic king.
  • Among all Royalty deities, Ange was pissed off the most, who covers Tusk's ears over what she says. Hilda was second behind Ange's sentiments since even her initial behavior towards the Breakout Princess did not compare to what Malty did; Hell, she would prefer Ange's former princess self over her. Salamandinay joined in on their farewell of good riddance when her Humiliation Conga came in.
    • When she learned that Malty was part of an equally sadistic Goddess, Ange was sure that she would be in cahoots with a certain Tuner. It came to a shock to her and all other female deities that even Embryo opposed her, his official reason being how her use of Waves destroyed multiple worlds into nothingness all for the hell of it, rather than creating new worlds to start over. Ange is still highly skeptical of this and such an alliance has left a taste she will spend gallons of mouthwash cleaning out.
  • Issei also took her crimes personally, for it reminded him of his relationship with Raynare. Her friendship with the Fallen Angel never made anything better.
  • Shiroe would not have a positive opinion of her crimes against the heroes and especially Naofumi. He would, however, enjoy the karma inflicted onto her in the mortal realm. While Akatsuki has a habit of kneeing those who attempt to say anything perverted, she would view Malty's false charges as quite despicable.
  • Malty is on amicable terms with Prime Minister Honest. The Crapsack World of the Empire he runs would be a perfect place for her to thrive if he was not running it from the shadows. Her experience with another Fat Bastard is believed to be the source of her doubts.
    • Speaking of the Prime Minister, Night Raid also marked her for death.
      • Among all members, Tatsumi seeks to put her down for actions are worse take on what Leone did to him on their first meeting.
      • Lubbock is next in line for how she toyed with the Spear Hero. Not that hasn't had experience with fighting women, but his role as an assassin and real love for his Boss makes cautious over other girls.
      • Among the female members, Najenda and Akame find her actions unacceptable in any government system. Mine and Chelsea are both ticked off by her antics.
  • Emperor Calus had people like her thrown to the baying mobs as penance for their crimes against the people. If he and Matly's mother ever met, he would have agreed on the same kind of punishment, except having her Cruel and Unusual Death go a little faster.
  • The only section in the House of Royalty that accepts her is the Crimson Court. Appearances aside, she fits well within their group and gives a few laughs over the crimes she committed.

[up] Ok, let me help you with a few things since you keep reposting the notes.

First, a symbol could be maybe her outfit, one of her weapons of choice or even the symbol of her kingdom. She is a princess right? Theme song is trickier, probably would have to abstain of one until the soundtrack is available on youtube (Somehow)

Law is not an actual house, it's a redirect to the Grand United Alliance of Law. They are one of the biggest a-holes in the whole pantheon, probably topping Zamasu by a margin but not much, but it is not a house. She should go in Criminal Actions.

Lastly, maybe she would get along with Junko Enoshima. They are both bitches and the latter would relish on the despair Malty causes in others

@DefRevenge24601 Regarding Ford Prefect, a troper by the name of drzoidsquoo had started work on him in Pending Gods 2 as God of Humanoid Aliens.

However, they haven't been active since February 2016 and had written ahead of time that their character profiles can be worked on by others. As such, I think you're free to work on Ford, assuming that no-one objects to him having Humanoid Aliens as his trope.

Anyways, I only know Jet and I guess he's okay. Since he's a freedom fighter who was willing to kill innocent people if it means repelling the Fire Nation. I forgot much of his reappearance other than that he tried to expose Zuko when he figured that he and Iroh were Firebenders seeking refuge in Ba Sing Se.

I guess I should mention that you should explain why you believe these people you want to ascend is good.

@Daring Do Perhaps some relationships with other writers and authors in the pantheon? I also find it interesting that her name seems to be an obvious play on J.K. Rowling, although that might be too shallow a reason for a relationship with Harry Potter deities.

  • Votes: 3(Ferot Dreadnaught, fasoman1996, louisent31)
  • Date of ascension: 12 March
  • House: Character Roles (House of Characterization)
  • Adopted from: J Rads 47
  • Theme Song: Grodd Lives, Gorilla City
  • Intermediate God
  • Alignment: Neutral Evil
  • Portfolio: Evil Gorillas, Psychic Powers Gained by a Meteor, Strength Exceeding a Normal Gorilla's, Hates Bananas, Wants to Kill All Humans Out Of Racism, Imagined by an Outdated Concept but Managed to Stay Relevant, Genius Bruiser, Not Above Eating His Enemies, Mind-Control Eyes, Manipulative Bastard
  • Domains: Psychic Powers, Evil, Conquest, Gorillas, Racism, Genocide
  • Interests: Dr Zomboss, the House of Mind Control
  • Allies:
  • On speaking terms with: Mard Geer Tartaros
  • Rivals: Frieza
  • Headbutting Villains with: Captain Cold
  • Enemies: The Flash and every DC superhero in the Justice League, King Kong, Caesar, Winston, Donkey Kong, The Emperor of Mankind, Olivia Moore, Jean Grey/Phoenix, Charles Xavier/Professor X
  • Opposes: Human deities as a whole
  • On poor terms with: Dr Zaius
  • Gorilla Grodd is one of the gorillas of the titular Gorilla City in Africa. His kin were exposed to an enigmatic meteor, giving them intelligence. Unfortunately, Grodd developed a heightened sense of cruelty. Introduced when gorillas were a fad, Grodd managed to retain relevance due to his manipulative psychic abilities, cruelty and hatred towards humans.
  • Despite the somewhat outlandish nature of being a psychic gorilla, Grodd stands as one of the Flash's worst foes due to a mix of power hunger, sociopathy and racism towards humanity. That is not to say some versions can't have some sympathetic qualities. In general, other ape deities have no love for Grodd. No, not even King Kong. Grodd considers Caesar to be most like his rival Solovar.
  • Chosen to side with fellow evil apes Mojo Jojo and Koba. Koba especially, as the two share a deep contempt for humanity Jojo does not and The Flash (2014) even has them share a similar backstory. Mojo Jojo's super-intelligence and aspirations of world domination make him a worthwhile ally of the gorilla.
  • Doesn't side with any villainous monkeys, as he absolutely HATES being called one. Some poor schmuck suggested he should take Mojo Jojo's spot of Maniac Monkeys only to get their arms torn off with him yelling "I'M A GORILLA, NOT A F***ING MONKEY!" This had made a very heated rivalry with Frieza, due to using the slur on anything remotely primate.
  • Considers humanity to be a worthless mud race and has made a number of attempts to kill them all. Naturally, this puts him at odds with human deities as general. Most of all, it has earned Grodd the Emperor of Mankind's complete wrath. There is little Grodd can do to overcome the Emperor's psionic powers, fortunately.
  • Sometimes found musing on the worthlessness of humanity with Mard Geer Tartaros, though asides from that he doesn't see much in common with him. He also muses on his dislike of humanity to Dr Zaius, who does agree that other apes are superior. However he does not agree with Grodd's belief humanity should be destroyed or cruelty to fellow gorillas.
  • Is willing to eat his enemies, which is all the more barbaric as gorillas are herbivorous. Notably, he has recently gained the power to take knowledge and some abilities from eating his victim's brains. He even has a spoon for the act. This intrigues Dr Zomboss, though Gorilla Grodd doesn't pay much attention to him. He is interested in using Olivia Moore's brain-eating abilities for himself, which horrifies her.
  • Watching the House of Mind Control with vested interest, due to his psychic powers and telepathy that make him so formidable a villain. He has gained a disturbing interest in the brain of Professor X after Red Skull hijacked his brain, hoping to use it to create a "Gorilla Onslaught".
  • Absolutely hates bananas, and has complained about how primates are always stereotyped as loving them. It wasn't long until people called out the hypocrisy of a complete speciesist complaining about stereotypes, which just made Grodd roar in anger.

Fasoman I have ideas for Kanzaki

I wanted to see his interactions with the Hokago Tea Time, μ and 765 Pro.

I wanted to see his interactions with people who are raised in the opposite gender since birth (like Bridget from Blaz Blue) or those who disguised themselves in a different gender just to be accepted because of circumstances (like Naoto Shirogane)

I wanted to see his interactions with people who have the ability to transform into a different gender (Ranma Saotome) and those whose ability to transform into a differnt gender has superpowers (Natsuru Senou, Souta Kishibe and Souji Mitsuka)

I want to see how he feels about Rise Kujikawa's problems as an idol becsuse ofnhow the media perceived her and how she was portrayed as in said idol persona during the time of Persona and how she eventually accepts it in the end

I want to see how he interacts with Hatsune Miku

I want to see how he interacts with people that use music as powers (the Symphogear girls, the Bravely Default party, the Suite Pretty Cure girls and the Mermaid Melody girls)

And I want to see how he thinks of people that use music through evil means (I-No, Balthazar Bratt and Ember Mc Lain)

Keep in mind that I don't know all of them and I just randomly suggest becausebI wanted to expand his profile

@ Faso: Well, the tyrant GUAL side at least. There's two sides now and one's a hell of a lot more chill. Anyways, Hideri can interact with Chihiro Fujisaki and Naoto Shirogane as they're both crossdressers (or Naoto's case, formerly), albeit not through the most ideal circumstances.

@ nightelf: Stays far, far away from Ungalo who, unpleasant personality aside, powers involving bringing fictional characters in image to life. If one identifies with said character, they're doomed to suffer whatever fate had in store for them. Sure, he's banned from the House she stays at, but its boundlessly widespread range is still worrying.

All my fault, you say...? What fault? I daresay it's all thanks to me.
