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

Ask again, but is it ok to up Elsa rank?
You need to present reasons and evidence to showcase why Elsa is a Greater God.

"Money is the goddamn plan! Have some faith, y'all!"Well, she was able to freeze an entire tidal wave from destroying her kingdom.
Is she capable of maintaining such levels of power normally? If that's not the case, she's an Intermediate God bordering on Greater God.
Retired effective March 1, 2022Basically got a upgrade in the last movie in which she became the Ice Spirit. The movie does contrast it earlier when pre ice Spirit Elsa finding it harder to freeze rapid water currents. Of course in the first film she did cause an Endless Winter
She can be Greater Goddess as the Ice Spirit but the loose nature of the Frozen movies makes it hard to figure out how strong she truly is. I say she should stick to Intermediate and make her Greater as the aforementioned thing.
@M1gami How big is the Monster's giant form? Because Ragnaros is also pretty massive himself so i really doubt he can literally stomp him (unless he kicks him i guess)
Do you mention people that are a Dr. Fakenstein? From the picture you have both Junkrat and Roadhog, AKA Dr. Junkenstein and the Junkenstein's Monster who allied with a powerful witch to get his revenge on those that ocstraziced him.
Uni catAs big as a Megazord by how Power Rangers went. Just push Ragnaros to the ground and stop on him. Im mentioning the Dr. Fakenstein’s monstly on Frankenstein’s own profile

Pantheon server for all who click here. Freaking lost $410 and I am hunting down for a nuke to reign down.Greater God means the scale of their power can directly effect the entire planet or setting equivalent at once. Does that sound like Elsa as of Frozen 2?
If thats the case, theres a lot of misuse greater like Superman since his powers does not effect the planet. Unless you count rotating the earth.
Edit@At minimum, its city scale.

Anything I should add to or change about this profile? I got rid of a lot of black text in the portfolio. Was it enough, or should I take out more?

- Maniac Mansion was one of the first video games — if not THE first — to feature cutscenes, which would become a staple of video games in the coming years. The sequel, Day of the Tentacle, would improve this already-revolutionary feature with full voice-acting. Both games would be well-received, and this would be among the reasons the heroes of both games would be considered for ascension into the Pantheon of Tropes.
- It had been a while since Bernard Bernoulli and his friends Hoagie and Laverne had saved their world from an insane mutant Purple Tentacle, and even longer since he, Dave Miller, and one other friend of theirs (he's pretty sure it was Razor, but there was a chance it was Syd) first entered the Edison Manor to rescue Dave's girlfriend Sandy Pantz, and ended up saving the world from a mind-controlling meteor in the process! When the doorbell to his dorm room rang, Bernard wasn't sure what to expect, but it certainly wasn't an invitation to a pantheon (alongside his friends)! After he, Hoagie, and Laverne stepped through a portal spawned by the invitation, they found themselves in the pantheon proper, and Bernard was surprised again, this time to find his old friends who he broke into the mansion with the first time (as well as Sandy, the Edisons, and Green Tentacle, as they were the heralds). A party was thrown to celebrate not only the ascension, but also the reunion Bernard had with his old friends.
- Most of Bernard's old friends were understandably quite unnerved by Laverne, the only exceptions being Syd and Razor, who learned about her through Hoagie, their roadie and drummer.

- Due to their encounter with an evil, sentient, mind-controlling meteor from outer space, they're on the lookout for other evil aliens, such as Freeza. Of course, they're not strong enough to take on all of them; if they're going to defeat one, they'll need to do what they always do: use their brains.
- Due to a gruesome incident in the Edison Manor involving Weird Ed's first hamster and a microwave, many small mammals in the pantheon distrust Syd, Razor, and to a lesser extent, Bernard (who had admitted to swiping the hamster in the first place). They also distrust Laverne (infamous for dissecting smaller animals) and Hoagie (who had once suggested biting a hamster's head off for a performance by his band). All these people are thus banned from the Hall of Rabbits and Rodents, except for Bernard, but even then, they keep a close eye on him.
- Laverne greatly admires Dr. Ludwig the Medic, seeing him as an inspiration. The Medic has decided to make Laverne an apprentice, on the condition that she doesn't try to dissect his doves. Other deities are very much afraid of this partnership...
- Syd, Razor, and Hoagie often make visits to the House of Music to either enjoy listening to others rock out or to do some rocking out of their own. They were forced — under threat of having the Killer Rabbit sicced on them — to do away with the animal abuse, such as the aforementioned head-biting.
- Jeff enjoys surfing in the SAFER parts of the Pantheon's waters, or at least those that aren't patrolled by such vicious sea creatures as Bruce, the Meg, and the Kraken. He found out about Bruce the hard way when he was surfing out on the deeper waters and shooting a curl, because Bruce decided to swim up into that wave and right behind Jeff! The young man barely managed to escape through sheer luck. One thing was certain: no one who witnessed the event would ever forget the sight of that enormous shark swimming inside the big wave, and of course, Jeff was the least likely to ever forget!
- Zone-tan was amused to hear that they (especially Bernard, Hoagie, and most of all Laverne) had trouble with tentacles. They're afraid to meet her pet, or see her in her alternate form. They're further unnerved by her...interest in hearing about a record containing a tentacle mating call...
Why is Fritz Von Meyer a Quasideity? Given his ability to control bees, up to a certain colony in his area, he should be a Lesser God at least. And with Magneto and Storm being officially labelled as Omega-level mutants, and having highly concentrated abilities that can control planet-level areas normally (Magneto controls the entire Earth's magnetic field, and able to match Charles, a Greater God, and Storm being able to manipulate weather at a planet-level proximity with no decrease in strength despite distance), this makes them seriously nerfed in the Pantheon.
Permission to promote the former to Lesser God and the latter two to Greater?

Retired effective March 1, 2022The description for Lesser seems weird. But i agree he is one.
The guy in the nerd outfit in the first pic looks like the Angry Video Game Nerd.
You're not the first to say so. XD
Should I add something about the Nerd?
Freudian Excuse: Not one person is entirely good or evil; something will have to have happened in the past to make them what they are today.If it makes sense. Yes.
Turns out, he did play the game. Though, as himself and not the Nerd.
Edit@
Super@ They cant even be Intermediate since they dont really specified in one single power. As defined here. So I'll upgrade them.

ASS!
Pantheon server for all who click here. Freaking lost $410 and I am hunting down for a nuke to reign down.From my understanding, we do not have a character for Classical Movie Vampire. If nobody else has it, I was going to nominate Strahd von Zarovich for it.
The trope doesn't have to be only about movies, it just refers to the portrayal being based on the concepts created by Dracula (1924), which isn't even a movie but a play. The name comes from the movie adaptation but the trope itself references the original play. Plus, if we were being that literal about trope names, a large amount of the pantheon wouldn't have a trope filled.

Muramasa got.Shouldn’t be from you know... a movie?
Also, where the hell did these new influx of users come from. The people who will never leave this forum is faso, nightelf, whirl, crimson, ferot, and me. I’m just naming everybody from the top of my head who’s been consistent here.

Some new faces don't read the rules and since a lot of new users have come recently, this is getting annoying. Rest assured you're not one if them.

Retired effective March 1, 2022What's the problem with new faces?
"I like girls, but now, it's about justice."@M1gami Tensei who are some of the new guys you’re talking about. Are there actually that many new ones?
Huh, Keyblade333 has a sandbox here, and they ascended a few deities here, last time they ascended Berkut. They're definitely not a new face, just an old face who doesn't visit often. Why does that Zarovich guy fit Classical Movie Vampire? How many traits does he check off?

THE GOLDEN AGE WILL RETURN AGAIN!I'm not super active here but I've been around for a few years. My first post in the Pantheon was in 2014.
As for Strahd, he has a lot of the classic traits and characteristics like the whole blood sucking, turn into bats, dresses like how a vampire would. A lot of traits commonly associated with your "Bleh! I want to suck your blood!" kind of Vampire. Here's some traits assocuated with the trope: "His slicked hairstyle (along with a widow's peak), his sinister yet gentlemanly demeanor, his outdated yet suave clothes consisting of a black Ominous Opera Cape with a High Collar of Doom, his occasional dramatic flourish contrasting with a personality that is calm but menacing, and of course his thick Eastern European accent often peppered with Vampire Vords." Save for the accent part, most of that fits Strahd really well (image here◊). Of course if someone else has an idea for the trope thats fine. Strahd's just an iconic DND character so thought he would fit as it.

Muramasa got.On the subject of Frozen power rankings, shouldn't Anna be pared down to Demigoddess? She's a tough cookie alright, but she's still an average human being whose most impressive feats from a power level perspective are punching a guy off a boat and hitting a wolf with a lute.

- Conflicting Opinion:
- When it comes to underage superspies, there are several examples, but out of them all, the Court of the Gods decided on the OSS Agents Carmen and Juni Cortez. Before you ask, the OSS they come from is a fictional spy agency, as the real one is a defunct organization that existed in the early 1940s and was a precursor to the CIA.
- The first to greet the two was their uncle Machete, who was kind of happy to see them here. On one hand, there's family. On the other, they're now exposed to the dangers of the Pantheon as a whole. As a result however, he's resumed business as a gadget inventor, but only for the two Cortez kids.
-
- Applies to both:
- Thanks to their adventures in the Island of Lost Dreams, the two have gained telepathy powers, though it's only exclusive between the two.
- Plots that would negatively affect lots of children (be it robot replacements or mind control via video games) are a sore spot for them, given that they've had to stop such plots
- Speaking of robot kids,
- They like Zorro not only for his sense of justice and how cool he is, but because he sometimes also looks like their father. And while it's only the voice that's familiar, the same sentiment also applies to Puss in Boots.
- Don't like Khan due to not only his goals, but also because he looks like their Grandpa Valentin if he was younger.
- Exclusive to Carmen:
-
-
-
- Exclusive to Juni:
- Given the apparent corruption in the OSS, some can see why Juni decided to leave at the end of the Ukata Assignment
- On occasion, Juni returns to his non-Agent career in being a private detective.
