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.

Nuke it if it's definite that there will be no other characters who can ever join.

[tup] for Olga.

No-[tup]s Mode

Remember, we have Abridged Kirito and Asuna in the Pantheon. Just a heads up before you judge me.

Elspeth Annarose Cullen, Goddess of Rationalist Fiction (Elsie, Genealoger Extraordinaire, Princess Elspeth of the Golden Coven/Empire, Elspeth the Imperial Soothsayer)

  • Intermediate Goddess
  • Symbol:
  • Alignment: Neutral Good
  • Portfolio: Dhampyr, Was Reneesme In Canon, Bad Liar (sort of), Can Broadcast Her Thoughts And Memories To Others, Heart Is an Awesome Power, Younger Than They Look, Omniglot, Time Abyss (By Way Of Proxy Memory Transfer From Aro), Everythings Better With Princesses
  • Domain(s): Half-Vampires, Memory, Truth, Rationality
  • Herald: Imperial Alpha Jacob Black (her imprinter)
  • High Priest: Harry James Potter-Evans-Verres
  • Allies: Mina Tepes, Akira Kaburagi, and Yuki Saegusa, Isabella, Chuck Bartowski
  • Enemies: Indiscriminate vampire hunters and evil vampires
  • Finding a candidate for Rational Fic was a daunting task, mainly because the best candidates were from fanfics, and several of them already have canon counterparts in the Pantheon (had in one case nearly nobody remembers). And then someone in the Court of the Gods found an ideal pick. Amidst all the protests upon hearing where she came from, especially by the PPC, these were quelled after inspecting her character, and seeing that she at least deserved a chance.
  • It was Dream who went to visit the world Elspeth came from, and was mildly interested with what her mother has done and is planning to do with it. Eventually, he contacted Elspeth in a dream and explained everything about the Trope Pantheons, how things there don't fully operate on rational thought, that the world operates in a narrative sense, that significant change won't come easy, and other caveats that ensure that she won't actually need to be away from the Golden Empire for too long; in fact, having a capital in the Pantheon can be a sound idea. Oh, and that she was chosen to represent the trope Rational Fic.
    • The reason why she was picked rather than her mother, she was given two reasons why. 1) Being a fanfic version of a canon character was enough reason to bar her from entry. 2) The canon character in question… wasn't well liked at all (even though nobody knows why anymore) and has been removed. Elspeth then asked what this canon version of her mother was like. Dream showed her (and therefore knowledge of the Disgraces)… and she was quick to agree that they had a point.
    • Being a fanfic character, upon entry to the Pantheon, Elspeth was screened by the Protectors of the Plot Continuum and put under The Universal Mary Sue Litmus Test before she could enter the Pantheon proper. She barely passed the test and earned a spot here.
  • Elspeth's power is the ability to make herself understood, and she can do that by touching someone and showing them what she means or how she feels, or convey the objective truth and be believed. She can also use this indirectly to learn things about other people, depending on what explanations they understand, what analogies make sense to them, and so on.
    • She's also developed it to the point where she can send her memories to others (and translate them if need be) pass her thoughts to others from range. She can even send enough memories to overwhelm someone (though given Death Is Cheap, it's ultimately not advantageous). Or transmit the feeling of pain (specifically, the pain from turning into a vampire in her world).
      • She's careful not to send too much memories, for it can effectively erase a human-level mind of everything that makes them who they are. Thankfully, this is reversible in the Pantheon, though harder to do than "plain" death.
    • As a consequence of her powers, it's obvious if she's telling an outright lie, unless she never told the truth to the person she's talking to.
  • Has two other personality aspects that she discusses with at times and help process things.
    • Magic, who "itches" whenever Elspeth lies (she only twinges at out-of-context misleading truths), even if she's mentally compromised (this eroding its effect on her), and values being truthful above all else. It also helps her figure out the objective truth.
    • Memory, who helps sift through Elspeth's massive archive of memories that she's picked up from when Addy (with Aro's memorieshow much? and Elspeth's powers (for that moment)) passed them to her.
      • As such, she has an immense wealth of knowledge, from firsthand perspectives of the fall of Rome, authentic Sanskrit accents, books memorized, instruments played, doctorates, and who knows how many others.
  • Memories might've been removed, but the feelings behind them can still linger, which is why on her first few days, Elspeth received unexplained stigma from some deities in the Pantheon. Only some, because others have ascended long after the "removal" and so do not harbor those feelings. Her truthfulness has also helped against the stigma, so that eventually faded.
    • If anything, Elspeth has more reason to hate the original Twilight, especially given its decidedly-not-rational thinking her mother does there, the fact that Jacob somehow became love rivals with her father, every unbelievably (to Elspeth) stupid decision her mother's made there, etc. Let's just say that when the Trollkaiger dropped off the book in her temple one day, the entire House felt her outburst of frustration and grief after the first few chapters.
    • As someone who's partially a joke on the books by virtue of her name, Twilight Sparkle understands the feeling. She also appreciates Elspeth's rational way of thinking, even if Twilight tends to veer off into paranoia at times.
  • As someone who possesses an obscene amount of information, she's made connections with Isabella and Chuck. While she sort of understands the former's situation (having been specifically made to be a weapons database, only learning how to be human thanks to Will), she's confused with how the latter (with the INTERSECT in his head and the inconsistencies of its origin) hasn't lost his sense of self. To be fair, Chuck "merely" possess intel and skillsets, not entire lifetimes worth of memories like Elspeth has.
  • Given Elspeth's mother's ultimate goal, Mina Tepes appreciates her for it and laments that she could've thought about that before making her Vampire Bund and race public; the pressure of her "suitors" likely influenced her thought process. Mina also wished she was that ambitious, though the sunlight weakness (and not simply sparkling) makes that impractical, even though she does have sunblock supplied.
    • The fact that the Vampire Bund has werewolf servants makes Elspeth feel a bit awkward; the Volturi in her world had sort of done the same, but with Mind Rape (by way of someone who can strengthen and weaken relationships, and thus their capacity to care).
    • Elspeth and the Vampire Bund trio also happen to share another thing in common; a certain literary series influenced their ascension to the Pantheon, the three due to the most popular option being inadvisable, and the half-vampire from a tangential source of origin.
    • Given their shared goals, Elspeth has been rendered an enemy to indiscriminate vampire hunters and the evil vampires of the Pantheon.
  • For those who can literally fall apart yet whose body parts are autonomous, Elspeth can be a big help thanks to her memory powers.
    • Speaking of disassembly, given the Volturi subjected her father to this, Elspeth is not fond of them.
  • Has noticed how Violetta's Smoke Knight skills bear some similarities to Allirea's powers in that she and her actions can escape notice in defiance of logic. However, there are some clear differences. 1) The Smoke Knight can only make her presence and actions unnoticeable, not her existence. 2) Even when noticed, she can still somehow make certain actions of hers ignorable (like swapping a hostage for a dummy while the hostage-taker was talking to her). 3) This hiding ability isn't infallible. 4) She's apparently not even that good; better Smoke Knights are able to leaf through a book guarded by two people (one a Super-Soldier with enhanced senses and the other a battle-hardened warrior) without them noticing until after they decided to make themselves known.

At least explain who Avatar Wan is.

I guess its time to bring this rather old profile from my sandbox. To be honest, Angel's Egg is a rather hard shell to crack, mainly because of the movie's symbolic nature. Otherwise, some interactions could be useful.

The Young Girl and the Soldier, Patron Deities of Plots Based On An Egg

  • Fears: The Ashen One (for the Girl)
  • Deep within an abandoned Gothic City, there were two inhabitants going through the desolated space. One is an unknown girl, who holds and protects an egg from being broken, and another, a mysterious soldier, who has no clear motives on his behalf. However, anything comprehensible from the tale is rather dubious to tell, leaving many questions. What is clear however is that, the egg the girl is carrying is the main reason why the journey is a rather convincing to try to understand.
  • To be more specific, Angel's Egg is rather difficult to interpret. The story focuses on two characters on what seems to be an abandoned city (well, an abandoned ''world'' left by God that is) while exploring the vastness of the place. While such, the Soldier asks if whether or nor the egg holds any significance to the girl, to which she clings to it in such a protective and careful manner. The egg's significance may attribute to many interpretations, bu what is clear is that by the end of the story, not only does the Soldier breaks the egg, but the world is slowly seen to be a horrifying future of Noah's Ark, where the boat is capsized and the world is doomed to be lifeless. As for the girl, she became a living stone, which joins with other statues to a space-orb and the Soldier, well, his fate seems to remain unknown.
  • Their ascensions towards the Pantheon was met with massive confusion in regards to understanding their story. Majority of the House of Knowledge have tried their best to see anything that can help internalize what was going on between the two and especially the importance of the egg. The silence of the girl alongside the film's minimalistic nature pretty much makes it a lost cause. Though, thanks to that, it allows many to have different interpratations on the girl and her devotion to the egg.
  • Their silence in the Pantheon is rather awe-inspiring, as they walk through the place with ease, which explains why they do not have a temple to begin with (some have suggested the capsized Ark, but it has not worked out). While this made their exploration worthwhile, it also captivated many deities to explore about the two, especially the egg that the girl clings to.
  • For being silent, the Robed Figure sees relations towards the two, given that both their respective universes are beautifully deserted places with large amounts of figurative imagery. The Robed Figure also seems to understand the girl's clinginess to the egg, often letting her go, but the girl asks who figure was. To this day, their silence has been a reverberated background whenever they meet.
  • Any God who has appeared within the Abrahamic Faith has seen what their world has become and have rather unfortunate reactions towards it. The two Gods, as in Bob and the Alpha and Omega God, have seen the world being a result of their God abandoning it, often comforting the two regarding it. It also gave insight to whether or not the two had relations towards the world they inhabited, with Bob denying any links towards him and that place, and the other giving a rather unclear answer as to if he had connections towards the two.
  • There has been conversations and rumors about the two and the Ashen One. Some say that this was because of one time where the Ashen One encountered a being similar to the girl in the Ringed City, one who was not only possibly a Godsent, but also had an egg clutched into her body. Upon breaking it, it revealed the true nature of the city. The girl, hearing this, ran away from him after the first encounter, and the Soldier, asking whether or not this is true. The latter also pointed out that he/she encountered a remnant of the Ringed City after he touched the egg, seeing another person with a Crucifix as a weapon, confusing the Soldier even more.
    • What is more interesting is that a certain Slave Knight approached the girl with honor, seeing she looks like the Painter he has been devoted to for so long. After announcing himself to the girl, he vowed to protect her and the egg, seeing it as a potential gift. The Soldier however, doesn't share the same sentiments towards himself, as he sees the Slave Knight's deformed body and rather inhuman self as red flags concerning the safety of the two, which is funny since many people pointed out that he broke the egg in the first place and sealed the girl's fate.

At the same time, I wanted to rework a special profile I just saw. John Wick's rework is now open. I'd like to know who made the profile before. I'm going to fully overhaul it in every aspect.

[up][up]I felt that the soldier and the girl would have an interaction with the Angry Birds because their entire goal is to protect their eggs from being stolen so I think they would be mad upon hearing that the Soldier broke the egg he and the girl were taking with them.

For Kronika, shift her alignments into the Evil category. Someone who has a spot on Mortal Kombat's Complete Monster page has no right having an alignment in the Neutral category.

Kronika is kind of like Zamasu that way. No doubt the two of them would use Psychological Projection and claim the other is a sinner for various reasons-Zamasu for the damage he's done to the mortal plane, Kronika for manipulating time in a sinful way. And they both have visions of so called utopia that could butt in the way. Zamasu might actually have a point about disagreeing with the balance of good and evil here

Anything else for Nihilus, or is he good to return?

Darth Nihilus, God of Malignant Tongues (The Lord of Hunger)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/KOTOR2Nihilus_6310.jpg
  • Votes: 1(louisent31)
  • House: Language (House of Quirks)
  • Greater God
  • Symbol: His mask
  • Theme Song: This
  • Alignment: Chaotic Evil
  • Portfolio: Cool Mask, Humanoid Abomination, The Urge To Feed Until There's Nothing Left To Feed On, The Unintelligible, Black Speech, Power Parasite, A Void In The Force, Being A Destroyer Of Worlds, The Dreaded, White Mask of Doom
  • Domains: The Dark Side, Hunger, Aberrations, Wounds in the Force
  • Allies: The Grand United Alliance of Destruction, Unicron, Famine the Horseman, Gluttony the Voracious
  • Teeth-Clenched Teamwork with: Sheev Palpatine, Giygas
  • Rivals: Ungoliant, Merkava
  • Enemies: Every single Jedi ever, Jack Harkness, the Life Entity, The Spring Sprite, Anna Marie
  • Opposed by: Everything else that lives, particularly No Face
  • Darth Nihilus was a human who lived thousands of years ago during the conflict between the Jedi and Sith Empire. He survived the devastation brought about by the Mass Shadow Generator, the only living thing left on Malachor V. He became enormously powerful in the Dark Side, but at the cost of no longer being truly human. Described as a wound in the Force, he is the Lord of Hunger and slave to a desire to feast on life and the Force.
  • Initially a member of the pantheon, but fell out of relevance with his position as "God of Horror Hunger" being taken by Merkava. A Power Parasite who feeds off the Force, which only worsens his dependency. Nihilus is increasingly famished and sanity is nowhere in sight with him. Even his speech is indecipherable, a terrible Black Speech some say is the true ancient Sith language.
  • Though a Sith powerful in the Dark Side, it's lip service at best. Nihilus doesn't care about anything but satiating his unending hunger, it's just that the Sith are the easiest means of obtaining it. Palpatine was interested in him due to what he might say about the Dark Side and is using him. However he plans to dispose of Nihilus the moment he starts becoming a liability.
  • Why did he go away in the first place. Ungoliant ate him. She almost died from food poisoning. Embodying a hunger and darkness that can never be sated, the two can barely be near each other without their respective eldritch presence causing further damage and being so famished they try to eat themselves. Their endless hunger leads them instead to compete for food. The Grand United Alliance of Good fears the day they ever set their differences aside.
  • It's difficult for such a being to even have allies, but the closest he has found is the Grand United Alliance of Destruction. While Nihilus would rather plenty of food remain, his inevitable endgame makes him a useful front soldier. As the Force is an energy field generated of sorts by life, the Life Entity is an attractive source of power. He serves as one of their brutes, and is kept in line so long as they don't interfere with his meals.
  • If there's any shred of empathy left in him, it's saved for Gluttony the Voracious and Giygas. The former is saddled with Horror Hunger, though unlike him Gluttony may not need to actually eat. The latter was someone driven into a mad abomination, like him. Though the more mindlessness of Giygas makes being an actual ally to it impossible.
  • Wears a mask meant to help bind him physically along with his robes, else his own inconceivable nature might rob him of a body. It retains great power even after his death. It's not even known if there's a face behind the mask, though Visas Marr states otherwise. He seems to have based it on No Face's mask, who really doesn't like the association.
  • Has wiped the life and Force from entire worlds, and would probably be the most powerful Sith that ever lived if he wasn't shackled by his hunger. Running almost completely on instinct, it is unsurprising he rarely gets involved with the alliances or pantheon. He is seen as an agent of Ungoliant due to also being a devourer, and Famine the Horseman is interested in using him. Galactus, despite being a Planet Eater, considers him an abomination and utterly unnatural compared to his role of rejuvenating and being an essential part of the universe.
  • Seems to have difficulty interacting other power parasites, given his interaction with Meetra Surik. He can't even touch Anne Marie without the backlash hurting him, though she doesn't take it well at all. Then there's Jack Harkness, who's immortality was so great that he ended up "over-eating" and withered away from Phlebotinum Overload, like how Jack's immortal life force killed the demon Abaddon.

Repost of Olga... again.

Feedback Mode

Olga, Goddess of Enforcers Who Outlive Their Leader (Olga of the Seven Deities)
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/s_Wrath_Olga_9679.png
  • Intermediate Goddess (potentially capable of becoming a Greater Goddess)
  • Symbol: Her ship, the Septentrion Alioth
  • Theme Song: I Don't Need a God Who Only Takes Away
  • Alignment: Lawful Evil
  • Portfolio: Outlived Deus, and tried to avenge him, An Ice Person, Dark Action Girl, Dark Chick, Evil Brit, Warmongering general, who prefers aggressive tactics, More Deadly Than the Male, Ignored Enamored Underling, Undying Loyalty, The Unfought
  • Domains: War, Lust
  • Allies: Deus, Wyzen, Augus, Kalrow, Sergei, Colonel Mael Radec, Esdeath, Selvaria Bles
  • Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: Yasha
  • Enemies: Asura, Mithra, Chakravartin, Twilight Sparkle, The Smurfs, Asterix and his allies
  • Olga was originally one of the Eight Guardian Generals in service to the Emperor of Shinkoku to protect the Realm of Shinkoku and Gaea from those who wished to destroy it. Although her mantra affinity is Lust, she only has eyes for Deus. However, Olga and six of the other generals participated in General Deus' coup d'etat, which culminated in the assassination of the Emperor and the banishment and death of General Asura, who was blamed as the cause. Afterwards, the Eight Guardian Generals were disbanded and transformed into the Seven Deities. 12,500 years later, Olga launched an attack against a village that Asura had happened to come acros. However, the subsequent bombardment of the village only resulted in angering Asura, who proceeded to singlehandedly destroy Olga's fleet. After the death of Deus, Olga tried to kill Mithra out of revenge, but she was killed instead by the Golden Spider, which turned out to be Chakravartin, the true God of the Mantra. Olga was later reincarnated in the modern world as Deus' secretary, who was telling him of a meeting they were going to be late to attend, as he insisted on helping an old man cross the road. She was then chastised for insisting otherwise.
  • Olga originally ascended into the pantheon as part of Deus' plan to reunite the Seven Deities, she was made The Goddess Who Never Retreats. However, once further scrutiny had been given for each and every one of them, Olga was removed along with Wyzen, Kalrow and Sergei. Unperturbed by this setback, Deus attempted to ascend the remaining Seven Deities once again. After the successful ascensions of Wyzen, Kalrow and Sergei, Deus managed to once again ascend Olga into the pantheon, this time as the Goddess of Enforcers Who Outlive Their Leader.
  • As soon as she was re-ascended, Olga made straight for the House of Faith with the intent of killing Mithra as revenge against Asura and Yasha for killing Deus. Fortunately for Mithra, she was with Twilight Sparkle at the time, and the pony was able to hold her off long enough for Asura and Yasha to arrive. Needless to say, Twilight has gone on Olga's hit list. Olga was eventually banned from the House of Faith due to her constant attempts on Mithra's life. For the next few months, Olga could generally be found in her temple, seething at this apparent "injustice".
  • Olga's love for Deus has confused many gods in the Pantheon due to her Mantra affinity being Lust. Olga doesn't particularly care about the opinions of the House of Love and is particularly disdainful of the House of Lustful Behavior, as she considers her love for Deus to be much more than simple lust.
  • Out of the Seven Deities, she hates Chakravartin the most, as he is not only responsible for releasing Asura from Naraka both times, but was also the one who ultimatly killed her and prevented her from exacting her revenge against Asura and Yasha. Her hatred is so strong that she's willing to cooperate with Yasha whenver the Seven Deities end up fighting against Chakravartin.
  • Olga has struck up something of a friendship with Colonel Mael Radec, as the two are both highly devoted to their respective leaders. However, Radec tends to be critical of the fact that Olga didn't fight against Asura and Yasha directly.
  • Olga has also formed an alliance with Esdeath and Selvaria Bles, who are similarly Dark Action Girls who serve as The Dragons to their respective forces and are also infatuated with someone in particular. She particularly gets along with Selvaria, whose dedication to serving under Prince Maximillian, to the point she was even willing to use her power that causes her suffering if it meant pleasing him and bringing victory, strongly mirrors that of Olga towards Deus. However, Olga feels a lot more uneasy around Esdeath. Not only because of her insane and sadistic personality, but also because the object of her infatuation is Tatsumi, who is a member of a group of assassins who actively oppose the Empire which Esdeath serves.
  • Her habit of bombing the hell out of villages populated by innocent humans has put her at odds with those who live in/protect villages such as The Smurfs and the Asterix deities. Although she doesn't regard them as serious threats, she's nonetheless annoyed by their opposition to her as it reminds her of how her failed attempts at killing Asura and utilizing the Brahmastra had rendered Deus' plan all but doomed to fail.

  • Rivals: Samantha Carter, Lobo, Miss Fortune, Commander Shepard, Honor Harrington, Commander Adama, Starbuck
  • Opposes: Dr. Wily, Ryoma Sengoku/Kamen Rider Duke, Johan Liebert and Areal (River)
  • Odd Friendship: Cyclops
  • Not to be Confused with: Richard Castle (Mal)
  • Domain: Courage, Space, Hunt
  • The presence of the Serenity was first felt... with a few falling debris of the ship coming down on the ground before the rest of the ship made a decent landing. From there came the crew, led by a former military man called Malcolm Reynalds. Together, the crew decided to perform smuggling in protest of the ruling government. Mal had long held the title on his own for those who bring the cavalry in the nick of time to turn the tide of battles. It was only recently that he decided to grant divinity to the entire crew, even those who died in the course of their stories. There was much rejoicing, to the crew and those who were fans of their adventures.
  • Despite being the closest things to being heroes in their world, the crew are not welcomed by many, making them natural fits in the House of Ambiguity. In fact, Star-Lord jokingly stated that their crew may well have been their high priests despite never having that role. Mal would rather not be considered in a position that would be under anyone's authority. Nevertheless, the two groups generally like each other.
  • They still manage to find allies in space. Namely, the Serenity's ability to save the day in the nick of time has save many a team from disaster:
    • Mal and his crew can't seem to stop bumping into Captain Kirk and the Enterprise. In all cases it was due to coincidence. Still, Kirk is one of the few captains that Mal can trust, given both of their aversions to military excursions. That and he can always count on Kirk to find rare items to sell to the black market.
    • The Doctor finds the position of the Serenity to be an interesting one. As such, she pays no mind to helping them out. After all, many of her incarnations distrust the military as much as Mal does. With the rest of the crew, she is happy to listen to Kaylee's engineering tips as well as help River with her memories with her limited telepathy.
    • Crichton and the Moya were practically made to be allies with them. The entire crew had nasty experiences with their own corrupt government ironically named the Peacekeepers and Crichton himself has been known for enacting insane plans that just happen to work out. It was a match made in heaven for Mal. The crew members can be seen hanging out on multiple occasions.
  • More often than not, most ships he come in contact with eye him with suspicion. The crew have a way with escaping any bit of authority that tries to take them in:
    • In any other case, Commander Shepard would have welcomed them in with open arms. Yet Mal himself would neither trust the Executive Officer nor would he ever let Shepard Commandeer his ship. Good thing villains, because any time the two teamup, they are capable of laying waste to vast swaths of enemies.
    • Honor takes a more direct approach, regarding the Serenity as subject to capture. Unfortunately for her, Mal has made it difficult for her to find him. He usually meets up with her whenever there is a crisis her Space Navy cannot defeat alone. Even then, she is bound by Judge Dredd to take them in afterwards.
    • Samantha Carter is more conflicted in doing so. After seeing the good deeds that they have done over the years, Samantha is more willing to tolerate their presence and letting them go... in exchange for confiscating any counter-band she finds in their ship.
    • Usually, Commander Adama would rather focus on taking on Cylons than dealing with petty smugglers, but he follows through with trying to arrest them. Starbuck made it more of a friendly rivalry, even teasing Mal with innuendos. Mal obliges b to a point but knows better than to leave his crew vulnerable for capture.
    • Surgeon Pierce is the one place in the House of War that they can have safe passage. Mal and Hawkeye both experience sorrow during their time of service and do not wish to do so again. It helps that Hawkeye makes a mean bootleg drink and serves them to the Serenity in exchange for contraband from the smuggler.
  • While they are critical of their Lawful Neutral government, they are more than happy to stick it to more authoritarian governments. This is especially true to the likes of Emperor Palpatine. He does not take their destabilization of Galactic Empire style dictatorships lightly. As such, he has sent many Dark Side assassins after them over the years. When that didn't work, he employed Thrawn to lay a trap on them. It would have suceeded if not for a rescue made in part by the Skywalters. This was supported by Han Solo, himself a smuggler over the years.
  • Given the nature of their business, it was only natural that they would take on a number of bounty hunters over the years. Usually they are after Mal for smuggling, but River's head has an even high price tag. It's just that she's a much more difficult target to capture:
    • As the head of Bounty Hunters everywhere, Boba Fett is responsible for managing the various attempts on the Serenity. After various failures on their part, Boba has decided to take up the bounty himself to receive the glory of detaining the elusive smugglers.
    • The crew wishes they have Lobo as the god of Bounty Hunters. The Czarnian may have been impossible for them to defeat, but Mal was able to bribe him out of their bounty. Afterwards, Lobo allowed them to continue their business. Besides, the alien has taken a liking to the crew. He thinks that River his a natural badass with a future ahead of her and even checked out Jayne's arsenal to see if there's anything of interest.
    • Miss Fortune's specialty is piracy, but that didn't mean she wouldn't dabble in that of the space-faring kind. After a couple of skirmishes, she considered him to be less bloodthirsty than most and abandoned the bounty for now, though she does appear now and then to keep the peace.
  • Mal couldn't help but feel like he would have gotten along with the crew of Rogue One, the unlikely crew that went on a Suicide Mission to send the notes on the Death Star to the Rebel Alliance. In fact, Mal stated that they were a lot like the crew of the Serenity... if they were run more incompetently run and all died in the process. Jyn viciously shot back, stating his last big plan led to the deaths of some of his crew-mates as well. It's safe to say that the two Protagonists aren't to keen on making amends with each other. At least the other crew members were willing to bury the hatchet over the two hot-heads.
  • Exclusive to Mal:
    • Has fallen into hot water with the subhouse of Lust. They didn't take to kindly with his remarks on Inara's profession. As such, he receives the cold shoulder whenever he arrives there.
    • One of the odder relationships among the gods has been with Scott Summers. The God of Eye Beams can't help but be reminded of his father whenever the two meet. It helps that the two of them became space pirates.
    • When there was a case involving some missing merchandise, Mal ordered his crew to find a detective who could find some clues. Jayne came back with a man with a bag over his head. When the bag was removed it turned out to be Richard Castle, God of Mystery Writer Detectives. Despite the distressing introduction and the fact that the two looked eerily similar, Richard agreed to help them out... on the condition that he gets to write a story about the adventure. Once the items were found (and Jayne was given a tongue lashing), Richard waved them off. The subsequent book made him a decent amount of money, part of which was given to Mal.
  • Exclusive to River:
    • Prior to moving in with Mal, River was the only other member of the Serenity who had ascended on her own. This is due to her memorable defense of her crew members against the Reavers. It's also due to her ability to improbably dispatch large swaths of enemies despite being 90 lbs soaking wet. That and she can totally kill you with just her mindShe is by far one of the most popular Action Girls in the Pantheon.
    • Will attack any mad scientists on sight. Anyone foolish enough to be in her way will wish they were treated more humanely than the Reapers in Serenity. Dr. Wily and Ryoma are at the top of her hate list. That also includes people such as Arael and Johan Liebert, though she's more cautious with the later. Delving into his mind alone is enough to give her shivers.
    • Is noted to almost never wear shoes. Her symbol is a constant reminder of that to her followers. Most theorize that shoes remind her of the tortures she endured during her experiments at the Academy.
  • Exclusive to Simon:
    • It was a jubilant scene for River when the two siblings met each other for the first time in years. The two have been together ever since he helped her escape a government facility. He even vouched for the two when Mal threatened to kick them out. He has since stuck around in order to protect his sister. Which ended with his death.
    • The resident healer of the Serenity, Simon is polite to every person he meets... almost to a fault. It did him no favors towards Mal who felt his politeness to be off-putting. In fact, all of his teammates treat him with a bit of disdain except for Walsh and Kaylee. As for her, the two promptly proclaimed their love for each other.
  • Exclusive to Zoe:
    • As the saying goes, for every man there's a woman working from behind. Or in this case, she's the Straight Man to counter the more chaotic aspects of Mal. As such, she is seen as the voice of reason.
    • Like Mal, she has a military background, an aspect that was more difficult for her to shut down. To this day, she has to catch herself from calling Mal "Sir". At least that helped quell down those who tried to ship the two. Regardless, her demeanor has deem her The Reliable One of the crew.
  • Exclusive to Wash:
    • When the crew of the Serenity was asked who would be considered The Conscience of the show, everyone pointed to Wash, the pilot of the crew. He is by far the nicest resident of the ship and has a playful side in him. Yet there is no one who can stay calm under pressure as this man.
    • It makes it all the more unusual that he and Zoe became a couple.
  • Exclusive to Inara:
    • Inara is a Companion licensed by the Alliance, helping clients seeking sexual and psychological healing. Her work is well regarded in the House of Love and she is welcome within the House for as long as she likes. She even has her own unofficial temple within the area. She hopes that more of her ilk make their way into the Pantheon.
    • A Buddhist at heart, she makes sure to bring such items along with her at all times. Sadly, she was unable to find any other of her faith in the Pantheon. Still, she hopes that Confucius himself may make his presence known here one day.
  • Exclusive to Jayne:
    • The weapon's expert of the crew, he keeps a wide assortment of guns and knives in the ship, a stash so large he needed a separate room just to keep it all. It was so massive, he gained a large enough following to be considered ascension on his own, namely for his habit of naming his weapons. His favorite in particular is Vera. Alas, he was too lazy to follow through with things and waited until Mal decided to ascend the entire crew.
    • Out of everyone, Jayne's loyalty is by far the most fragile. This is on account on the fact that he is almost entirely motivated by money. He has betrayed Mal on a few occasions on the whim of making more money for it. And yet he keeps coming back when it counts. He may not admit it, but he sure has a way to show his affections to his teammates.
  • Exclusive to Kaylee:
    • Made her debut in spectacular fashion: solving a critical engine problem in mid coitus! She became the new engineer ever since. She was even considered the position of Wrench Wench, eventually losing out to Winry. When Kaylee herself ascended later on, the two became fast friends. Kaylee loves to talk about her ship and she couldn't think of a better person to talk to her than Winry.
    • As stated above, she has a rather colorful view of sex. She is perfectly happy to have such a conversation with someone in that regard. With that said, her heart is taken for Simon. With his returned, the two committed to sticking together.
  • Exclusive to Book:
    • The one who spends the least time on the ship, Book is content to explore the Pantheon to experience new worlds. He sees a lot of good in the Pantheon, more so than in his own world. He wishes that no one else will have to experience the horrors he and Mal faced during their service in the military.

  • Hana was a college student whose life took an unexpected turn when a classmate she liked turned out to be a Wolf-Man; the last surviving descendant of the now extinct Hokkaido wolf. Upon becoming a couple, they had two half-wolf children; Yuki, who was born on a snowy night, and Ame, who was born on a rainy day. Things seemed bright for the young family... until the Wolf Man unexpectedly died on a stormy day. Left to take care of their two children alone, Hana faced a number of challenges along the way, both in the city with child services and in a remote countryside after eventually moving there. Throughout all of this though, Hana maintained a good heart and was incredibly dedicated in taking care of her children.
  • Initially, Hana found the Pantheon to be a very unusual place to take care of her children, especially after learning about it and being accepted a spot there. While it does have the urban landscapes and rural countrysides that she has been used to, there's a lot more happening in the Pantheon than in her original world, with plenty of far more dangerous situations that could threaten her, Ame, and Yuki's well-being. Even with the new dangers that can happen, Hana ensured her children's well-being and is still making sure that they're safe.
    • But there was a surprise in store. Hana learned she would be sharing the temple with another person from her world... the very same Wolf-Man whom she fell in love with long ago. When the pair reunited, they were both in tears as Hana rushed into his arms, the pair exchanging a loving embrace. Many in the House of Family cheered and applauded the couple's reunion, their hearts warmed by the scene before them.
  • Nowadays, the couple can be found in their temple, which leads to Hana's home in the countryside. Yuki has transferred to another school as a human whilst Ame, now remaining as a wolf, protects the nearby forest. Despite this, Hana and the Wolf-man are proud of their children, knowing they've found their true calling. They still make visits to the Pantheon to visit, Ame more so as he became an honorary Nature Preserver.
  • Hana quickly found friends in the Pantheon to keep her company, mostly her neighbours in the Sub-House of Mothers. Kitty Forman has brought her, Terra Branford and Sanae Furukawa over for snacks, where the four have bonded over their shared struggles in motherhood, as well as the differences between their home worlds. For his part, Red Forman and the Wolf-Man let the ladies do their thing, all the while listening to them chat as they continue with their own conversation.
    • The pair also gained friends in the form of the Holy Protectors Of Family, with all four of them praising Hana's skills as a mother and have given her the utmost of respect. And while the Wolf-Man did leave a little left over, Mufasa came forward and stated he did his best to raise the children, and even in death his love for Hana never went away. For that, the Wolf-Man appreciated the lion's kind words.
  • Hana and the Wolf-Man get along well with many of their close neighbours, some of them also being half-human hybrids just like Ame and Yuki. Some, like Greg Universe and Atalanta, are supportive of the couples' relationship, whilst Nowi and Nah have been playing hanging out with Ame and Yuki due to their share "half-human" heritage. The Nohr Royal Siblings have also shown support for the young family, as they are firm believers in family loyalty above all else.
    • The young couple also became quick friends with Belle and The Beast, who couldn't help but note the similarities between Hana, the Wolf-Man, and themselves. They can be seen conversing with each other from time to time, sometimes bringing up the challenges of growing up in unusual circumstances... and also giving Gaston more than his fair share of crap.
  • While many have been supportive of their relationship, there are still those in the Pantheon who find the idea of Hana and the Wolf-man having children, to put it bluntly, repulsive. Both Lord Okkoto and the tanukis of Tama Hill in particular were absolutely disgusted by their consummation, the former going so far as to try to the kill the pair. But just like with Ashitaka, the blind boar god couldn't land a direct hit and, as Moro put it when she came to stop the rampage, was rather embarrassing.
    • While she found their relationship to be rather off-putting, Moro still approved of Hana and the Wolf-Man's pairing. In some ways it reminded her of San and Ashtiaka's relationship, plus she was more than happy to learn the lineage of the Hokkaido wolf lived on in Ame and Yuki as well. For that, Hana and the Wolf-Man were thankful and will sometimes come to chat with the wolf goddess, with Ame and Yuki playing with Moro's own sons.
  • It's no surprise that these two have come to oppose the Child Abuse Supporters, with Hana taking a particular dislike to Lady Tremaine and Ragyo Kiryuin for their treatment of their respective daughters. On the other side of things, the Wolf-Man quickly grew to disdain Fire Lord Ozai and Relius Clover for their "methods" of treating their children. All the aforementioned child abusers couldn't care less for the couple's opinions, but it did lead to Ragyo threatening to have Ame and Yuki skinned and turned into rugs. It took the combined effort of Hana, Mufasa, San, Ashitaka, and a passing Roy Mustang to hold back a fully transformed Wolf-Man from attempting to tear out her throat. He was lucky they were there to stop him. Had the other not been present... well, he'd be a dead wolf. Again.
    • This opposition to abusive folks has extended to those such as Homer Simpson and Catelyn Stark, despite not being evil. Both are considered, in some regards, loving parents, they still treated some of their kids - Bart and Jon Snow respectively - rather coldly. But when it comes to conflicting opinions the Anakin Skywalker takes the cake. Both Hana and the Wolf-Man were horrified upon learning what the Jedi did as Darth Vader; in between blowing up his daughter's home planet and cutting of his son's hand. But despite this, Vader was able to redeem himself and save his son from being killed by the emperor. That part they're fine with, but they still have issues with Skywalker. Especially with Kylo Ren.
  • After the fiasco with Ragyo, the couple soon learned of her associate, Team Plasma's Sage Ghetsis Harmonia, and immediately took a massive dislike to him, not only because of the way he abused his son N, but also for nearly killing Lillie during his time with Team Rainbow Rocket. They've taken it upon themselves to befriend N and help him out adjust to the assortment of human inhabitants. Progress has been made, and N has appreciates the support given by Hana and the Wolf-Man. On the other hand, Ghetsis has been hear ranting about the couple, calling their children "freaks without human hearts."
  • Several of the Pantheon's big game hunters, such as Pokemon Hunter J, Gaston, and the Monster Hunters, have currently set their sights on the Wolf-Man and his children, due to their status as being the last descendants of the Hokkaido wolf. Most of them have been financed by the likes of Cruella DeVil, Mr. Burns, and Looten Plunder, the former two especially as they want to add "Wolf-skin coats" to their fashion collection. Hana was horrified to say the least, and quickly called up the Nature Preservers to ensure her lover and children didn't end up as next year's fashion wear.
  • Best not to talk to Hana and the Wolf-Man about their children being direwolves. Yes, they're on good terms with the Starks and they've opposed Tywin Lannister for using his children as chess pieces in his conquest for Westeros but never, ever call Ame and Yuki direwolves. You won't know what the Wolf-Man is capable of.
  • No one knows what the Wolf-Man's true name is, not even Hana herself. It's unknown whether he keeps it a secret by choice or if it doesn't really matter, but it did lead to a peculiar discovery. Upon going to the House of Time And Space, Hana discovered an Alternate Universe where her lover survived his fall and helped out in raising the kids. Then came the name. It turned out the Wolf-Man's name, at least in that universe, was... Balto. Hana nearly bursted out laughing at this revelation, as her lover had befriended the wolf-dog of the same name a few days earlier. Perhaps it's a good thing the Wolf-Man decided to stick with Tyler for a time. Whatever the case may be, Hana is just content to spend some quality time with him... though she has taken to call the Wolf-Man Balto from time to time as a pet name. He doesn't seem to mind.

Do you think I should give Dishonored Dead to Ernesto de la Cruz?

A bit of a spoiler, but I'm guessing from the spoiler policy... it can't be helped.

Just as a precaution:

He was a famed musician and actor but when he was exposed as a fraud and a murderer, he was disgraced by both the living and the dead. The dead booed him when his crime was revealed and the living desecrated his mausoleum with one writing said "Forget You" instead of "Remember Me."

Pretty sure that we won't cover the next fight since Yang vs Tifa went over so swimmingly.
