Trope Pantheons Discussion

Go To

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

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

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

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

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

    Templates 
Template for adding a new deity:

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

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

Template for Dominions profiles:

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

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

Template for Treasure profiles:

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

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

What should be added to Alisa?

Alisa Bosconovitch, Goddess of Rose Haired Sweeties

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fc94137f7af5b53acada338e3a3a7738.jpg
  • Returning to: Hair Color and Male and Female Traits
  • [tup]s: 1 (Mizerous)
  • Lesser Goddess, bordering on Intermediate
  • Symbol: Her Flower, crossed with two Chainsaws.
  • Alignment: Neutral Good (Lawful Evil if her Safe Mode is disabled)
  • Portfolio: Rose Haired Sweeties, Detachment Combat, Badass Adorables, Chainsaws, Artificial Girls Capable of Having Human Emotions Despite Being Referred as One, Dissonant Serenity, Skyrocket Super Punch, Being Modeled After the Doctor's Deceased Daughter, Moeblobs, "Romantic" Two-Girl Friendship with Xiaoyu, Superpowered Evil Sides.
  • Domains: Weapons, Technology, Combat.
  • Herald: Dr. Geppetto Bosconovitch (her creator).
  • Allies:
  • Enemies: Kazuya Mishima, Bryan Fury, Heihachi Mishima, Ultron, Sigma, Ogre, Juri Han, M. Bison
  • Respects: The Maverick Hunters
  • Respected by: Jun Kazama
  • Opposed by: Asuka Kazama
  • Additional Relationships: Sakura Kasugano, Blanka
  • Created by Dr. Bosconovitch, Alisa's original purpose was to protect her boss, Jin Kazama. During her journey, she joined Lars (who suffers from memory loss) after being activated by him in a lab. Despite her bond with him, she reveals herself as an enemy and was called by Jin to disable Safe Mode to attack Lars. Although in her final encounter with him, Lars defeats her, ehich caused her to shut down. With the help of Lee Chaolan, she was restored and was back to Safe Mode. Currently, she is teaming up with Lars, Lee, and Jin to defeat Kazuya Mishima.
  • Traveled alongside with Lars in the quest to retrieve and destroy the Pandora's Box. During their journey, while Alisa was running out of batteries, they encounter Sakura Kasugano and Blanka, who was charged with electricty at that time, with Lars believing that he could repower Alisa, although this results in a battle. When they encounter the Pandora Box, Alisa detaches her head to explode it, which is successful.
  • According to one event, Alisa was originally enemies with Xiaoyu, who were working for Jin and Kazuya and were sent to Kyoto International School in order to capture a man named Shin Kamiya. However, they eventually formed an unbreakable friendship which results in them finding out that Heihachi uses Shin as a bait to get the Devil Gene, which help fuel Alisa's animosity in him. The two deivded that after that, they will join the sixth King of Iron Fist Tournament.
    • Her new friendship with Xiaoyu causes her to become friends with Xiaoyu's pet, Panda, and her other best friend, Miharu Hirano, who she may formed an another endless bond with after a trip to an amusement park. When seeing Xiaoyu ascend, Alisa is estatic and embraced her, and the two are currently waiting for their other two friends to ascend to complete the quarter.
  • Although they haven't met, because she wanted to protect Jin Kazama at any cost, she got the good side of his mother, Jun Kazama. She seems proud to see that there is at least someone willing to see the good side of Jin and wanted to protect him. Although Jun doesn't want to meet her just yet, she knew that she will someday, and hopes that she will be safe in her new journey, along with her son, Lee, and Lars.
  • Because she was employed to protect Jin Kazama and still has a desire to protect him, one of his relatives, Asuka Kazama, opposes her as Jin caused world destruction. Asuka questions how a sweet girl like her is employed under Jin and still wants to protect him after all the things he had done. Although Alisa is hurt to see that, she understood Asuka's intentions and decided to stop having encounters with her.
  • She can easily relate to Kula Diamond, as they are both naive, innocent, kindhearted girls who have little to no knowledge of the modern world. They eventually found much more common ground when they are revealed for working for the enemy, although in the case of Alisa, Jin does it to erase Azazel, and went back to the side of good, while NESTS does it for world domination.
  • Before stepping Korean territory, Alisa needs to change her chainsaws with Laser Blades at the suggestion of Luke Skywalker, much to Kim Kaphwan's rejoicing delight. It's common knowledge that in Korea, chainsaws are absolutely forbidden.
  • Alisa is good friends with Ruby Rose, as the latter reminds her of Penny Polendina. The two also seem to find some similarities in that they are both naive, but kind people. Ruby is also fascinated to see Alisa's arsenal of weapons, but is a bit creeped out upon hearing what will happen is she is disabled fron Safe Mode, but she hopes that it may not happen.
  • Due to her robotic nature, she bonded with other robots such as Mega Man, Astro Boy, Jenny, and KOS-MOS. She is interested in Mega Man's ability to replicate the weapons of the Robot Masters, and hopes she is able to do that to protect her friends. She find some common ground with Astro Boy and Jenny, as they all have an arsenal of weapons, but she bonds more with the latter as she has experienced a lot of human things thanks to the latter's desire of a normal life, and Alisa hopes she could learn more human things from her. She seems to become allies aith KOS-MOS, due to being both rpbot girls with undying loyalty, even if the former is unnerved to see that one of the people she is loyal to formerly caused world chaos around the world, eho is also doing it to save the world to awaken a demon and destroy it.
  • She seems to become allies with Tsukasa Kadoya as him having memory loss reminds her encounter with Lars. His goals to make the entire world (or in this case, entire worlds) against him but is doing to ensure their safety reminds her of her friend, Jin Kazama (because of his hatred of the Devil Gene and believes himself to be a dangerous man living among society). They also seem to suffer a lot of Heel Face Turns along the way as a Commonality Connection between the two.
  • Hates Ultron because even if Jin caused world chaos, he at least has a Freudian Excuse and Ultron does it for his hatred of humanity. Ultron commented that she is a Hypocrite because of it, as she was serving under Jin Kazama at that time and still is serving under that. Alisa doesn't care about it as she loves humanity, wants to learn more about them, gained human friends along the way, and finally has a chance to save the world along with the person she is employed under, and her two new friends who are also related to her employer.
    • Due to being allies with Ultron, she became enemies with Sigma, who also wanted to destroy humanity. It also doesn't help that one time, they both fused to become a much more powerful entity. Because of their dedication to destroy Sigma and desire to protect humanity, she is happy for the Maverick Hunters' dedication for their fight against him.
  • "I'm Alisa. Nice to meet you."

Thought they always did subtracting. When I’m handed a [tdown], I expect them to tell me how to fix it but I’m not given a clear indicator how much you gotta fix. Someone can keep a [tdown] over you as long as they like for all I know

[up] I guess [tdown]s are supposed to tell you the profile is not ready and the ascension is delayed. Once you have made significant improvement, then they can be changed into [tup]s by the same people.

Kagura, Goddess of Maturity Based on Physical Age (The Destroyer of Yoma, Master Kagura)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/child_kagura_dbrn8ls_1.png
Teen and Adult Kagura 
True Kagura 
  • Lesser Goddess (Child, Teen), Intermediate Goddess (Adult), Greater Goddess (True Kagura)
  • Symbol: Her flower-marked eyes
  • Theme Music: Power of the Red Orb, Future of Resolution as True Kagura
  • Alignment: True Neutral as a child, Lawful Neutral a Teen and Adult, Chaotic Neutral as True Kagura
  • Portfolio: Maturity Based on Physical Age, Woman In White, MacGuffin Super-Person, Demon Slaying, Space Master, Will Explode If She Keeps On Fighting On Her Fully Powered State
  • Domains: Reincarnation, Space, Age, Mentalism
  • Allies:
  • Enemies: Orochi, The Mikami, Dougen, demonic entities in the Pantheon
  • In the shinobi world, there exist legends of a being calling herself Kagura. Having existed at least over 900 years, she has simple objectives: transform into human form from the Reincarnation Orb, grow stronger by killing yoma and eating their Reb Orbs, crystallized essences of their life force, proceed to destroy as many yoma as possible when she has fully awakened, and return back to Reincarnation Orb when her powers are too much for her to handle. This cycle will continue every 100 years until all yoma are eliminated.
    • As her power grows, so does her appearance. And with that, her mentality. In her weakest form, she is an innocent Cheerful Child. As she is growing, she turns into a mature but still oblivious teenager concern on growing stronger. As she is starting to reach the peak of her power, she becomes a somewhat arrogant adult, ready to slay yoma. If she reaches full awakening, she will become a berserker who will destroy everything in her hunt (though she has learned to not reach full berserker stage). She mainly defaults to her Adult stage.
    • Also note that all of that are tied to the Red Orbs. She can actually grow weaker and smaller if you knock them out of her. We don't recommend eating the Red Orbs. Outside of Kagura, they have some interesting effects.
  • Her role as a demon slayer is at an interesting place as of now. She promised that she will not slay yoma anymore, as she is at stage where if she were to move on killing them, the power would drive her body to the limit, killing her and creating such heat that the after-effect would demolish the entire region of Kyoto. However, since that is only the case with yoma, she could kill other demons without any problem.
  • Kagura is rather friendly forwards Kamui, as both of them are saviours of sort destined to awake periodically. And due the fact that Kagura decided to finally go against her fate, Kamui wonders if she can do the same.
  • She has gotten the interest of Palkia, as her fighting style mainly consist of her literally ripping the fabric of space open to create blades of energy.
  • There is some questions regarding who "the One who brings peace"/"the Almighty" she is referring to, as she claims to be the messenger of that person. Not even she is sure on it. However, considering the theming of her strongest attacks, as some of her taunts of her power, it seems that the One might be someone from the Shinto Pantheon.
    • Speaking of which, Susano'o was rather annoyed of another deity using his name for something (that being Kagura's Ultimate Ninja Art). However, when he considered what she might be, and how she killed Orochi, he isn't going to bother with her.
  • She spends quite a lot of time in House of Food, as she likes to experience new types of food, as she never had much time in her multiple reincarnations to do that.

Continue the bloodline, Fujimaru!

Alright, I almost have this ready for a proposal. The only parts I'm wondering is where the mentioned Touhou should go (maybe add someone from ASoIaF/GOT) and that should be hit.

Shou Zama, God of Conflicts Forcibly Involving Another World (Show Zama, Shion Zaba (his reincarnation))

  • Enemies: The Black Knight, The Trix, Lord Arktivus Brevon, Sheev Palpatine, anyone in the house of Hatred, Megatron, Starscream, Unicron, Charles Zi Britannia, The Fairy Godmother
  • Odd Friendship: Himeko and Chikane
  • Pities: The (other) Black Knight
  • Pitied By: Charlotte Dunois (out of sympathy), Ladybug and Cat Noir (out of disappointment)
  • Respected by: Artoria Pendragon, Sailor Moon, every other High Queen and fairy species.
  • Rivals: Char Aznable, Anakin Skywalker (as Darth Vader), Suzaku Kuruugi (at least until his Heel–Face Turn)
  • Shou Zama was a motorcyclist who had troubles with his family since his mother was more concerned about financial success than her own son. One night, he ended up teleported into Byston Well, the land in between the land and sea, where souls from his world (called Upper Earth) came to rest in a cycle of reincarnation. He is enlisted be Drake Luft, a lower noble who has been summoning Upper Earthlings to join his army. Despite the amazingly kind hospitality, his eyes were later opened by Marvel Frozen, another Upper Earth from Dallas, Texas. Shou learns that Drake intends to bring all of Byston Well under his control with his new Aura Machines, prompting him to join the House of Given, whose sole surviving heir desires revenge for the death of his parents.
  • His quest to stop Drake have earned the fame and reputation among many in Byston Well, including the royals of Na and Lao. Queen Ciela Lapana found him worthy of using Na's most powerful Aura Battlers, that became the main unit until his death. However, he also made many enemies, especially Todd Guinness from Boston, Massachusetts, Shot Weapon from California, and a mysterious Black Knight who seeks to defeat him at any cost (and he does via Mutual Kill, at least in their first Final Battle).
  • Shou's ascension to the Pantheon does not come from his warfare experience in Byston Well (though he's annoyed that he wasn't) but outside of it. The first moment was when he accidentally opened the Aura Road that teleported him and another Aura Battler back to his hometown. The end result was over a million deaths when Aura weapons were shown to be at least ten times more powerful than in Byston Well, and Shou was ousted by his family when they denounce him as an alien.
    • Fortunately, and unfortunately, this experience helped him when Byston Well undergoes a Mass Teleportation after he promised to get rid of all the Aura Machines. Everyone was then transported into Upper Earth, where warfare broke out all over the globe, resulting in deaths reaching tens of millions (and perhaps even more). Unwilling to have a repeat of the previous incident, he rallied the forces of Lao, the forces of Na and the crew of the Zelana in hopes of stopping the war before Upper Earth was either conquered by Drake or outright annihilated.
  • After many skirmishes, and with help from the Upper Earth armies, he succeeded in stopping Drake, but nearly everyone including himself from Byston Well disappeared as a result of the peace. The only survivor was Chan Huau, who told the story as she recovered before disappearing without a trace.
  • Shou would be reborn 700 years later as Shion Zaba, a regular hunter who was kidnapped to serve the army of another Black Knight. Selkie Mau, now a Mi Ferario, helped him escape and he stole the Aura Battler Sirbine. He used his weapon's new power to save the reincarnation of Drake's daughter, defeat the Black Knight, and stop his supporter, who sought death and revenge after the Drake Wars.
  • Amuro was surprised to find Shou as his long lost cousin. It came as a coincidence that he shares just as many rivals via Black Knight clones as Amuro does Char Clone ones.
    • Second in line is Setsuna. The concept of Byston Well screws with his mind as he does not believe gods exist. However, they agree to the concept of ending wars and destroying all Aura Machines is within everyone's interests.
    • Next in line is Banagher, whose power also relies on his emotions. Shou wonders if Banagher's Unicorn could match that of Queen Ceila.
  • Speaking of lost relatives, Shou is the unknown ancestor to most of those Trapped in Another World or experienced similar situations. He's existed longer than even Kirito and Asuna, one of the starting few popular heroes of the trope. He made sure to instruct each such hero to ensure they fight the wars in the fashion the correct way. However, he has one troubling student who reminds him well of Shot Weapon.
    • One of his more recent ascended students was Naofumi Iwatani, who has been busy fighting off enemies from other worlds via the Waves of Catastrophe. He's been spending time seeking out who's responsible for the attacks, even when Naofumi ascends higher than him as an Overdiety.
  • As someone who wishes to destroy twisted feelings of hatred and malice, Shou is a natural enemy of those within the House of Hatred. From his experience, hatred is a primary source of twisted Aura that seeks to bring destruction on those he holds dear.
  • Likewise, almost any Black Knight is also Shou's rival. The need for "almost" is necessary thanks one specific knight what would make the others facepalm themselves. It goes for every Char Clone and Darth Vader Clone.
    • That said, the non-black Black Knight he rivals is Suzaku Kuruugi, for bring originally Japanese but taking European-based knight traditions. That is until Suzaku finally gets over his issues and becomes a litteral Black Knight, this time as a knight for justice.
  • The heroes of Avalace have fought wars that forcibly involved their world for a long time, which naturally be them Shou's companions. They do, however, wonder about the potency of Aura in their world should such machines enter their world.
  • Optimus Prime and the other Autobots have a relationship with Shou as long as their experience in fighting wars that dragged Earth into them. For that reason, Shou has been helping them behind the scenes in fighting the Deceptions and their overlords.
  • Shou has a special relationship with those who combine mecha with fantasy elements. The most prominent ones are:
    • Himeko and Chikane: They are both parts of a Reincarnation Romance, although Shou's relationships are more heterosexual. That doesn't stop them from becoming friends and fighting their enemies, whether it be the Drake Army or the Orochi.
    • The Magic Knights: Both were summoned to an alternate world with mecha, with nothing being as they seem and are able to travel their worlds freely as long as they have their mecha and enough Heroic Willpower.
      • Hikaru seeks to become a "Battler" like Shou and shares his same kind of justice. Their relationship grew even stronger when they fought side-by-side in Super Robot Wars T.
      • Umi was not going to stand around and watch the Drake Army wreck her home, being more angered at Drake's subordinate for blowing up her hometown.
      • Fuu narrowed her eyes when she learned Shou was easily fooled into fighting for Drake at the beginning but appreciated his later moral compass when it came to preventing Upper Earthlings from getting hurt.
  • Luke Skywalker became great pals with the Battler, which is not so different from being a Jedi, a knight who uses the Force for good and selfless purposes. The connection between the Force and Aura is perhaps why Shou found it imperative to defeat Sith Users, especially Emperor Palpatine, of whom wielded an Aura that made Drake and Bern pale in comparison. Shou is, however, happy and impressed by how Luke managed to convince his father to step away from the Dark Side. If only, someday, he would do the same for Bern.
  • Among those from Upper Earth, it all depends on where he is.
  • Shou gets a lot of praise from any High Queen, with Neo Queen Serenity being one of them. The only one he appreciates, however, is Artoria Pendragon since he only wishes to do the right thing and stop all the fighting.
  • Among all the houses, Shou's companion Cham finds the House of Fairies more welcoming than his home in the House of Warfare. He finds his own Fairy Companion with Tinkerbell the most; often showing off their popularity through vast amounts of merchandise. Moreover, he mistook the older fairies for Ae Ferario, especially Titania, Oberon, their servant. The only unwelcoming host is the evil Fairy Godmother, who turned out to be a much crueler woman than Jacoba Aoba. Cham mocks the Fairy Devilmother by reminding her how ogres and fairies are pretty much the same things.
  • The Trix eye on Shou Zama because of his relationship with the House of Fairies, and often make fun of his Aura Battler's insect-like appearance, particularly its Useless Accessory of wings. Shou is more concerned about them getting their hands on Aura Machines since they have since Earth's Aura potency is at least 10-100x more than in Byston Well. Unless the other realms have some way to suppress chemical reactions or the Trix have some kind of moral boundaries, for which they show to have none, there's no telling how many worlds will get blown up for their troubles.
  • Long before even the Drake Wars, Byston Well seems to have ended up a part of Gensokyo. Shou once got caught up in one of Yukari's antics by falling into the realm along with his Aura Battler. As much as one would gawk at the real existence of Japanese legends and creatures, Shou didn't plan on staying very long, just until he could get back to the war through the Aura Road. Shou rested in the Hakurei Shrine, and with his powers controlled, he didn't have to worry about being kicked out for destroying it like some of his previous encounters. He has, however, attracted some unwanted attention from many residents: Cirno, Aya, Nitori, Rinnosuke, and Patchouli to name a few. He does feel intimidated by a few residents, particularly Utsuho Reiuji for her use of nuclear energy and Eiki Shiki for her judgment of all things black and white.

Yeah. I should probably wait a while. I have the Persona 2 cast for Story Reset in the works. That'll probably be the next profile I post once I get posting again. That said, I might still ask non-profile posting questions.

Like if Alisa might join Liberion Arcadia. Then again, probably not, given her loyalty to Jin taking priority.

To see if the Mishima saga will end because I'm sure Alisa will be a major player given her role in the main story. Also, I'm sure she will be remained by Jin's side and by extension, Lars, Xiaoyu and probably Lee.
