Trope Pantheons Discussion

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 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.

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.

Since he's now finally representing BREAD. What should be added to him?

Kazuma Azuma, God of Bread

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yakitatejapan1.jpg

Rank: Demigod
Symbol: A slice of delicious bread; alternatively, his pink headband
Theme Song: Comet Cloud
Alignment: Neutral Good
Portfolio: A kind person who is a master of baking bread at the beginning which is the only thing he knows how to baked/cooked (eventually downplayed), The Power of Friendship, Over-the-top reactions, Elaborate cooking techniques, Is really an idiot but an unexpected genius in math, Creates really delicious bread, Hands as motifs
Domains: Bread, Kindness, Dexterity, Math
Heralds: Ken Matsushiro (his boss), his co-workers (Kyousuke Kawachi, Tsukino Azusagawa, Kageto Kinoshita, Shigeru Kanmuri)
High Priest: The Baker
Followers: Kasane Teto, Victoria, Sugar, Ana Pascal
Allies: Gordon Ramsay, Pinkie Pie, Marinette Dupain-Cheng, Natsuki, Alicia of Squad 7, Dukemon, Conan Edogawa, Himura Kenshin
On good terms with: The Pantheonic Time Police, The Doctor
Enemies: The Soldier
Kazuma Azuma is a young boy who dreams of creating a nation bread in his native country. It became a problem however as he found out that rice is a staple food in Japan and that bread is always looked down in his country. It wasn't until he met a young man who told him he has powerful hands called the "Solar Hands" and conviced him to continue pursuing his dream. Thanks to this, he was able to remain optimistic on his goal, and with his ten years of self-study, competed in the main branch of Pantasia to become it's employer.
He wasn't in the Pantheon for a while as he was a contestant in a different competition. After his new competition ended, he reascended, while establishing a bigger and better branch of Pantasia with his heralds. As a result of his new reascencion, a lot of deities (new and old) became regular customers as they wanted to taste his taste that are well-designed that are impossible to create and really delicious.
Out of all the bakers he met, he really gets along with Pinkie Pie the most as they are both bakers who share similar personality traits who love to cheer people by baking their signature food.
- When heard that there is another bakerthat bakes bread named Alicia. He went to her shop to meet her. The teenage girl is fascinated at Kazuma's baking skills and his "hand technique" to achieve this. They occassionally went to each other's temple to ask for advice when it comes to baking bread and to compare their skills.
One of his most frequent customers is Dukemon. This is because bread is his favorite food and talks abput how his bread is one of the most delicious he has ever tasted. He became friends with him later on since they constantly communicate with each other in his temple.
Gave a slice of bread to Gordon Ramsay once. The chef was marvalled at how he was able to create an impossibly designed delicious bread like this. Thanks to this, he became a regular customer to Kazuma's shop.
He was ordered to prohibit any sale of his bread to a certain Soldier. Upon hearing that he teleported bread for 3 days to the point it brought a bread monster, Kazuma became afraid of him.
The Pantheonic Time Police and The Doctor are really amazed at how he was able to create a bread that could sent people to travel back in time. Although they don't want him to create anymore bread like this as they fear that this type of bread will let people create time paradoxes, but considering how friendly he is, they are on good terms with him and in the case of the former, in situations where they lose one of their valuables that enables them to access for time travel and couldn't find a way of time travelling, they are using his bread as an alternative.
- Hearing how his bread could achieve impossible awesome things such as making people go to heaven (temporarily), time travel, shapeshifting, achieving Super Saiyan, mind control reached to mundane levels, and breaking the fourth wall. Needless to say, his food became one of the most high-demand that the Pantheon has ever seen as it means that he could make more bread that could reach impossible levels.
Hearing who "Conan Tonegawa" was from Kawachi, he met the real one in the Pantheon, who thinks it's actually Pierrot in disguise. Upon being convinced that it's the real one and hearing his story, he promised to create a bread that could bring him back to his teenage bread, which made Conan gleeful and made one of his friends, Haibara mad in a really bad way.
Is afraid of Kenshin Himura at first when he heard his past and thinks he's going to be like one of his rivals, Kai Suwabara before becoming nicer. Upon meeting him for the first time, he was amazed to see he's not like that and thinks that he's actually one of the nicest people he ever met, which Himura humbly stated that he's just like that.

TPPR has let me adopt the Hydra. This is what I've got so far

Lernaean Hydra, Deity of Multiplying Dangers

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hydra_xiv.png

Adopted from: TPPR 10
House: Monsters (House of Otherness)
Intermediate Deity
Symbol: Three of its heads
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Portfolio: Multiple Heads Which Can Multiply if Cut Off, Dragon-like Creature, Poisonous Blood And Breath, Can't Grow Back It's Heads If The Wound Is Cauterized, The Last Head Was Buried Under a Rock
Domains: Monsters, Head, Regeneration, Poison
Allies: Typhon (its' father), Cerberus (its' brother), Hera, Hades, Orochi, Shub-Niggurath, Alice(Monster Girl Quest)
Enemies: HERCULES, Pit, Percy Jackson, Annabeth Chase, Belkar Bitterleaf, Kratos, Gregor Clegane, Geb, Raigor Stonehoof, Rumble and Frenzy, Diancie
Opposes: The House of Fire and Heat
Feared by: Immortal beings
One of the children of Echidna and Typhon, Hydra is a giant serpentine creature who lived in the lake of Lerna. The most striking thing about is that if you were to cut one of it's many heads, it would just grow two more to replace the missing head. The only way to prevent it from growing the heads back is to cauterized the wounds. That, or shoot all of the heads at once. Or Crushing the body with a giant boulder. Or giving it so many heads, they can't get enough blood. Note that Hydra has certain amount of Healing Factor to prevent it to be beaten to death.
Technically speaking, the Hydra is invincible, since one of its heads is immortal. Hercules only "killed" it by burning the Hydra's body and hiding the last head under a giant boulder. Some believe that Hydra being in the Pantheon is due of Hera recovering the head and somehow finding out how to recover it back to normal. She did turn it into a consolation and might have raised it, after all.
Outside of pure strength, Hydra is also poisonous creature. It can breath out poisonous fumes and it's blood is so deadly just its scent is deathly. Hercules actually used the creature's blood with his arrows to kill other creatures, though it was the reason why Chiron discarded his immortality when he was pricked by one of the arrows, as the Hydra's poison wouldn't kill him, but neither would it be cured. Obviously there are many who would want to gain Hydra's blood frot heir own purpose, but Hydra itself isn't so cooperative.
Relation between it and Tiamat have been argued about, as they sometimes look a kind, just with different colours. She seems amused by it, but otherwise doesn't care for the Hydra and doesn't think it should be accepted into the House of Dragons. Though it is still accepted anyway, the Hydra hasn't made any friends there.
Mainly used by Hera whenever she's feeling pissy about her husband's affairs and illegitimate children. Or Hades, whenever he's in a foul mood. Usually the Hydra would just like to be with its father, or hang out with Orochi since they share a lot in common being multi-headed reptilian monstrosities.
Likes Shub-Niggurath, since it reminds the Hydra of Echidna, its mother. Despite being more ferocious and literal monster, the Hydra is strangely affable with Alipheese Fateburn. Maybe it's because she's a snake monster who leads other monsters, and the Hydra has some serpent basis. Maybe it's how its parents have snakes as part of their biology and are leaders/parents of monsters.
The blood of the Hydra is utilized by the House of Toxicity. As it inflicts a Cruel and Unusual Death, most under Murder and Assassination and Methods of Killing are hesitant and will only use it on a truly personal or truly despicable opponent. Oberyn Martell has been hoping to bring the Mountain even more pain with Hydra blood-dipped spears, which made Gregor rage even more.
The creature's poisonous blood will continue to persist and be agonizing if an immortal is unfortunate enough to be hurt by it. For this reason it is feared by all immortal beings, who stay the hell away from it. Especially Czeslaw Meyer for how his immortality let him be tortured for ~200 years.
Voldemort is about the only immortal not to fear the Hydra's poison, mainly because he is convinced that no matter what pain it brings him death is still the worst fate. That, and it'd probably just take his body and have him start over with a new ritual-created one. On that note, the SCP Foundation doesn't consider it an acceptable means of getting rid of SCP-682 because eternal pain will only make 682 more of an Omnicidal Maniac.
Due to how the Hydra was buried under rocks, it hates those that cause earthquakes as they can cause a boulder fall. Or Geb and Diancie for summoning rocks, stones and other minerals that could bury it. The Hydra also doesn't want to be anywhere in the House of Fire and Heat, since singing the head stumps usually prevents them from regenerating.
It is highly advised that you get up the Hydra's back. Has been said to actually be female, but no one is brave enough to see if that is the fact. No relation to a certain terrorist organization even if they are named after it.

Aurora has fought a Hydra once before, though it had less heads, elemental weaknesses, and wasn't immortal. I think she'd avoid this one.

While investigating various worlds, the Court found a modern-ish Earth place infested with spirits and located a certain woman and her spirit companion. After concluding that it was probably safe to provide assistance, they did so, and once the matter was settled, Jodie was invited to the Pantheon. Naturally, being tied to her via a Psychic Link, this invitation was also extended to Aiden.
Thankfully for Jodie, there are a lot more people in the Pantheon who are understanding and/or more tolerant of her powers (to Aiden however, that depends on them and him). Having been faced with prejudice, abuse, and exploitation at every turn in her world with the only exceptions counted on just one hand, this is a relief for her.
- That said, due to the story of her life, Aiden tends to be slow to trust anybody who isn't Jodie, and can get pretty violent. However, as long as Jodie is not being antagonized, he'll behave. Most of the time.
It's not known what happened at the end of her story, like who she ended up with, if anyone at all, before the epilogue, and she is not willing to answer.
With all the other supernatural entities in the Pantheon, there would inevitably be those who can actually see and interact with Aiden (who is seen as a floating torso with glowing eyes, and no defining features), much to his and Jodie's surprise. Unfortunately, this also means he has to watch out for himself now, not just Jodie, especially if threats can harm him directly. It's something they're still getting used to.
- It's known that incapacitating Jodie will reduce Aiden's capacity to act, but it's not known what would happen if the vice-versa situation occurs. Probably Jodie's (limited) powers being reduced.
- In some aspects, Aiden has been compared to a Stand, minus the tangibility, having a separate will of his own, and still being invulnerable by means other than breaking his link to Jodie. Then again, there have been many Stands that don't follow this pattern.
Jodie's powers (via Aiden) consist of moving objects, albeit only via one-time pointed bursts of force, as well as possessing people. Aiden himself can also cure wounds and even alcoholic poisoning, create barriers strong enough to repel bullets and freaking SWAT trucks, and has other forms of telekinesis fine enough to write on glass or sand.
Jodie has experience with playing the guitar and sometimes plays a tune on occasion.
Carrie White empathizes with them given how much crap Jodie's experienced. What's baffling however is when some idiots continued offending Jodie despite being fully aware of Aiden's existence, his powers, and his general attitude. Jodie however had difficulty returning the sentiment, given Carrie had gone on a full rampage and killer. Regarding the bullies at the birthday party, she most likely would've gotten vengeance, but she wouldn't have wanted them dead, even if Aiden might've.
Has disdain for organizations like the CIA due to the measures they resorted to in her world for the sake of their interests. Chuck resents that idea, but understands the feeling, given he's been forced to work for them, and how many times he's had to get himself in danger to take down various terrorists due to his INTERSECT. Besides, he's freelance now. Well, technically, he's in the GUAG and so is she, and they're more understanding overall.
- Speaking of them, any who desire to control the afterlife, or any dimension filled with uncountable entities that can barely be contained let alone combated, will draw a lot of enmity from them, given that's what the CIA in their world tried to do, all for the sake of science. This resulted in an Odd Friendship with Doomguy, who's had similar issues with the UAC. That said, there is discomfort, mostly from Aiden, due to his lack of respect for authority or personal space, not to mention his experience with the supernatural and his track record with demons.
- Merging two different worlds is also another reprehensible act in their eyes.
- Speaking of afterlife, there's also any deliberate means to keep someone from going there by way of forced coma. That's what their world's CIA did with their birth mother, and planned on doing the same to Jodie.
Many are baffled by the actions of Jodie's bullies when they locked her in a closet under a staircase for gifting an Edgar Allan Poe book. If nothing else, it was probably at least worth a lot of money due to its rarity. And an offhand or insincere "thank you" would've sufficed.
Having been handed over to the government by her adoptive parents at the age of 8, she has issues with those who ditch their children and those who "acquire" children for their own purposes this way.

Having possessed a doll of him in her childhood, Jodie got a pleasant surprise when she saw Totoro in the flesh one rainy night (Aiden alerted her to his presence, given he's usually Invisible to Adults) by a bus stop. Wanting some comfort before returning to her temple, she shuffled to his side and snuggled against his fur, which Totoro was okay with, and so was Aiden. They stayed together even as their transport arrived, until they eventually had to part ways at their respective Houses.
Having seen a newspaper of the Origami Killer during her travels, and now knowing who he is thanks to his identity being common knowledge in the Pantheon, she's come to despise Scott Shelby for his crimes.
If she's ever given a mission that involves taking down a target, it's best that she is not lied to to about the target's intentions and goals if they prove contrary to the truth. She doesn't like to have a repeat incident of her mission in the Republic of Kazirstan. Especially if it turns out to be a peacekeeper being "portrayed" as a warlord.

What would Jodie think of Ellie from The Last of Us? I know for sure that they'd disapprove of Joel, though.

And I'm sure I saw some comparisons between her and Mass Effect!Jack, but Okay can't figure out what exactly to write.

Opposes: The Sub-Houses of Felines and Plants
Opposed By: Sheldon J. Plankton
Complicated Realtionship: The Legendary Titans
Relicanth, the Longevity Pokémon, is an example of a "Lazarus taxon"; an organism that disappeared from the fossil record, only to be discovered alive and well in the present, similar to its real world counterpart the coelacanth. This Pokémon has been documented to be unchanged for over 100 million years, and has been found in the seas surrounding Hoenn, Sinnoh, Kanto, Unova, Kalos, and Alola, often residing in deep sea kelp forests. The individual seen in The Pantheon is special. Not only does the species have a low encounter rate, but it's also a shiny. Its light-blue coloration was what greeted Ariel when she first met it in the House of Aquatic Life. She brought it to the Court of the Gods, where they learned of its close encounter with extinction and declared it was to be welcomed into the godly realm. It was given a temple, a position in the Pantheon, and when all was said and done... it was revealed to be an elderly female, evident by her smaller cheek protrusions.
Her temple leads to a deep-sea trench in the Hoenn Region, located just outside of Sootopolis City on Route 126. Here, she enjoys a quiet existence, swimming through the seaweed and interacting with other native Pokémon like Chinchou and Clamperl. Ocassionally, deities from the House of Aquatic Life will come to enjoy the tranquil, warm waters and visit Relicanth, which is quite alright with her. She just asks not to be captured, but other than that she's fine with the company.
- She gets along with most of the Water type Pokémon found in the Pantheon, even those found outside of Hoenn. This includes the likes of Lapras, Qwilfish, Kingdra and, most incredible of all, the mighty Wailord and its feline companion Skitty.
Like all the Pantheon's Pokémon, Relicanth was assigned a partner to work with, and for her, The Court of The Gods selected Davos Seaworth for the job. Both share a lot in common, with their age and association with the ocean being high on the list. Whenever Davos goes sailing upon the high seas, Relicanth will be close behind him, often bringing a smile to the Onion Knight's face. Unfortunately, he had to leave her behind in preparation for the final battle against the Night King.
Living among actual extinct creatures seemed odd at first, but for Relicanth got use to it rather quickly. She made a few friends along the way. She's been seen hanging out with the the Kanto fossil Pokémon, with Omastar and Kabutops being his preferred companions, and even interacted with Littlefoot and his friends from time to time. Other than that, she stays away from the Sub-House's other inhabitants due to their... dietary preferences.
Being a Rock/Water type, Relicanth is incredibly weak to Grass type moves and as such avoids the Sub-House of Plants like the plague. She's also wary of all feline deities - save for Skitty - and will use Dive to make a splash and drive them off.
Being a slow-moving fish, Relicanth is rather vulnerable to predation, and in the waters of the Pantheon there are plenty of larger animals waiting to take a bite out of her. Chief among these hunters are the whales Moby-Dick and Monstro, the giant marine reptile Liopleurodon, Bruce the shark, Lagiacrus, the giant enemy crabs, and the Kraken. Luckily, she has more than his fair share of defences to keep away any attackers. Anyone who has tried to has received an Ancient Power to the face.
Was not happy to learn Team Magma & Aqua's leaders, Maxie and Archie, had ascended to the Pantheon, considering what they did to Hoenn by awakening Groudon and Kyogre. This is especially true with Archie, as his awakening of Primal Kyogre proved to be absolutely disastrous for the marine ecosystem. Even if they've denounced being evil and cut their ties with Team Rainbow Rocket, Relicanth isn't truly convinced and has kept her distance from the pair.
It turns out Relicanth primarly feeds on microscopic organisms, sucking them up due to her teeth becoming atrophied. This has put her in Plankton's bad books after he was nearly devoured by the ancient Pokémon. When Mr. Krabs heard of this, he decided to let Relicanth hang out around the Krusty Krab, as a means to deter the tiny thief from trying to take the Krabby Patty's secret formula.
Relicanth may not seem like much, but she, and her good friend Wailord, are key to solving an infamous puzzle surrounding the Legendary Golems, ^note Regirock, Regice, and Registeel along with awakening their master, Regigigas. Because of her unexpected value, she is sought after by many of the Pantheon's finest treasure hunters, such as Indiana Jones, Laura Croft, and Nathan Drake, all of whom have been seen fighting over possession of the fish. It became too much for Relicanth that she eventually fled to Atlantica, where King Triton gave her sanctuary and forbade anyone from trying to catch her... unless they ask for permission. That part Relicanth's fine with. She doesn't care much for the Regis as it is but she does understand why people would want to use her so badly.
- It's also resulted in villains like Pokémon Hunter J, Ursula and Leviathan the Tidehunter trying to catch the elusive Pokémon, all to claim the Regis for themselves. Thankfully, Triton has proven to be more than a match for all of them.
Is on good terms with Chuggaaconroy, due to the Let's Player using a Relicanth of his own to capture the Legendary Golems in the past. She sometimes watches the other Runaway Guys play through Mario Party and the results have been... interesting.
Even if it's found worldwide in its home universe, Relicanth is still a rare Pokémon and could even be considered an endangered species. As such, the Pantheon's Relicanth gets along with both Steve Irwin and David Attenborough due to their work in nature and wildlife conservation, even helping to promote the protection of the coelacanths found in the True Earth.
- The Nature Preservers have been noted to meet the elderly fish and protect it from any poachers wanting to come and steal him, even allowing her to come to their section of the Pantheon in case things in Atlantica go south fast. She appreciates the sentiment.

So Rafaam is at two . Is he ready to go?

Alright, who is ne-

Rafaam: I like your trope. I think i will TAKE IT!

Arch-Thief Rafaam, God of Forcibly Taking the Spotlight (RAFAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM, THE SUPREME ARCHEOLOGIST, Arch-Villain Rafaam)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/rafaam.png

^{Arch-Villain Rafaam}

: 2 (louisent, RJ)
Potential House: Metafiction
Intermediate God (Greater God while using the Staff of Origination)
Symbol: The Staff of Origination
Alignment: Neutral Evil
Portfolio: Large Ham, Big Bad, Ethereal, Red Eyes, Take Warning, Collector of the Strange, Sore Loser
Domains: Stealing, Collecting, Magic, Adventure, Evil
Allies:
- League of E.V.I.L.: King Togwaggle, Hagatha the Witch, Dr. Boom
- Other Allies: Harth Stonebrew, Gul'dan, Trazyn the Infinite, Grand United Alliance of Evil
Rivals: Kel'thuzad
Enemies: The League of Explorer, Kalecgos Indiana Jones, Nathan Drake, Lara Croft, Waluigi, Doctor Fate, Hermaus Mora, Sheogorath
Opposed by: Anyone tied to a Card Battle Game and Card Games in general.
This is Rafaam, the self-proclaimed Supreme Archeologist. First having come into the scene when he stole the Staff of Origination from the League of Explorer, proceeding to cause havoc in their base before being ultimately defeated by adventurers. Having laying low in the shadows, Rafaam resurfaced after putting out a team of evil villains, all the respective Big Bad of their expansion. With the League of E.V.I.L. formed, Rafaam planned to make his biggest hit yet, the pantheon Treasure Vault.
Having already a few key members of the League ascended, Rafaam decided that first he needed a temple. Using his Impossible Thief powers, he ended up stealing a temple before being aprehended since Togwaggle forgot to close the door. However, given Rafaam's tendency to steal the spotlight for himself, forcibly, he managed to keep a similar title and remain a pantheon deity. In fact, this it how it went:
- Hostile Show Takeover used to be Waluigi's title, but one after he left to play some tennis with his brother, he returned to see one of his temples taken by the ethereal thief. Rafaam having declared himself the new owner of the title, he kicked out Waluigi and forced him to relocate.
Needless to say, the League of Explorers was very unhappy to see Rafaam return, possibly trying to steal something very important for the pantheon's welfare. And unfortunately for them, he managed to retrieve the staff of origination and keep it with himself.
Touts himself as an archeologist, he is not. Other adventurers are disgusted by his evil nature. He just brushes them off as being just jealous of his "prowess", that and Indiana Jones is mad that he keeps confusing him with Harrison Jones.
Has an habit of taking someone's else deck. While many deem this cheating, for some reason the Inkeeper Harth Stonebrew still allows Rafaam to participate in his events and games, but only as a minion, he already banned him from being an actual player. Outside of the Tavern, he attempted to play other games like Magic the Gathering or Yu-Gi-Oh, usually earning the ire of other deities because he keeps taking their decks.
He is the mastermind that formed the League of E.V.I.L., consisting of himself, Madame Lazul, King Togwaggle, Hagatha the Witch and Dr. Boom. Their first big heist was hitting the magical city of Dalaran, which movilized all their residents the second they entered. Kalecgos, one of Kirin Tor regents, immediately recognized Rafaam and tried to evict him from the pantheon but unfortunately he was unable to do so thanks to being an official deity.
- During this time, assuming the name Arch-Villain Rafaam and wielding the staff of origination as a gauntlet, he allied himselfs with the Warlocks who are willing to help him with his heist on Dalaran. He and Gul'dan may have crossed and butted heads in the past, but he is perfectly fine with working for common goals.
In his quests for "collecting" more precious artifacts, Rafaam heard stories from artifacts possessed by the Daedric Princes. He actually first tried and learn the forbidden knowledge of Hermaus Mora but the Daedric Prince was on to Rafaam and almost killed him for his troubles, barely avoiding death thanks to his staff. Then he tried to do the same by taking the Staff of Everscam, thinking it could be a powerful artifact similar to the Staff he uses, but Sheogorath was too onto him and simply decide to mess with Rafaam. Needless to say, the Ethereal spent countless days trapped in Sheogorath's temple and would rather never try and steal from him again.
Having heard of the Helmet of Nabu, worn by Doctor Fate and possessing the powers that could rival the one of his staff, Rafaam instantly wanted to get the power for himself. So he alongside his league devised a plan to strike Fate's temple. This led him to GUAE and he joining the ranks in hope for getting support for his League of E.V.I.L. and other "collection" affairs. Both Ken Nelson and Nabu have caught onto the Arch-Thief's schemes and branded him as another agent of chaos that must be put down.
While he rarely, if ever, likes to share his collection, he feels that Trazyn the Infinite is like a kindred souls. Similar eccentric personality with a trollish streak and a habit of stealing rare objects, the two hit it off instantly. It helps that he is very near the League of Explorers temple, which facilitates Rafaam and his group to strike them at any time.
Rafaam and Kel'thuzad DO NOT get along ever since the former brazenly challenged latter to a Hearthstone duel, getting crushed in the process. A few months later he decided to challenge the Lich again and having prepared for the duel he actually managed to defeat him. Both have been at each other throats ever since.
"I am Rafaam, the Supreme Archeologist".

Ok, bow down to the Loa of Blood and the patron god of Serpents, Hakkar the Soulflayer.

So anyone tied to cults? Anyone that is into human sacrifices? Or has Blood Lust?

Hakkar the Soulflayer, Unholy God of Sacrificial Rituals (The Soulflayer, The Blood God, The Faceless One, The Loa of Blood)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hakkar1.jpg

Potential House: Methods of Killing
Greater God
Symbol: An altar in his form and his blood.
Theme Song: Rise of the Zandalari and Zul'gurub
Alignment: Chaotic Evil
Portfolio: Blood Magic, Deal with the Devil, Feathered Serpent, Lords over Blood, Blood Lust, No clear origin, The Dreaded
Domains: Blood, Sacrifice, Gods, Violence, Empires, Trolls, Serpents
Heralds: The Hakkari Trolls and the Atal'ai Tribe
Allies: Skarlet
Enemies: Vol'jin, Zul'jin, Quetzalcoatl
On good terms with: Harth Stonebrew
Hakkar the Soulflayer is the Loa of Blood and Patron god of the Gurubashi Empire. A malevolent deity with a thirst for blood and sacrifice, he offered his aid and powers to the Gurubashi trolls so they would avoid both the Corrupted Blood plague and the terrible famine the Gurubashi have been enduring for a while. While they remained fearsome and powerful, the Gurubashi had to make daily sacrifices to appease the Loa of Blood and Hakkar dreamed of gaining a physical form so he could devour the blood of all mortals, which made most of the Gurubashi realize what kind of god they were worshipping and a civil war ensued, where the most loyal followers of the Soulflayer were vanished. Hakkar has made many attempts to manifest in Azeroth, some were almost succesful, other times he was just a puppet for other causes but one thing is clear, his infamy among the Troll mythoes is undeniable.
How he ascended into the Pantheon is a mystery, which compliments his even more unknown origins. Some say that during an event in the Tavern, some members of the Atal'ai tribe sneaked into the pantheon and tried to summon his god into this place. The ritual was similar to the time he was almost summoned in Zul'Gurub, but this time they were successful and Hakkar was ready to unleash his wrath on the Pantheon. Unfortunately, GUAG was able to defeat the Loa of Blood and vanish his followers to a secluded temple. Having erected an altar for him and even restoring Hakkar to his physical form once more, the Blood God continous with his daily sacrificial rituals and bloodlust, biding time and acquiring power to one day unleash the end of the world and become the top deity.

I'm not working on F.A.N.G. nor do I have any intention of such. I've talked in the past about giving Waluigi a less memey title and Lean and Mean worked for him. Afterwards, alternate options were discussed for F.A.N.G. and Hand Hiding Sleeves was among them.

On a different note, would it be OK to give Scrat Recurring Extra? Scrat doesn't have much importance in the plot of the Ice Age films, but he keeps showing up in his own segments as comedy material.
