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.

Reminder that Monsters has the "too long" warning, so we need to do something about it, like a new subhouse.

[down] That sounds good! For the gods from Genetic Engineering, will they just gain an additional seat, or will they fully move to the new house? Because I think the latter sounds like what you're saying.

For the Flood, Rasputin Aquato is cursed to be dragged down to drown whenever he gets too close to a body of water.

A host of the Flood infection.
  • Adopted from: Super WIKI 1
  • House: House of Nature
  • Rank: Varies depending on host (individual microbes are Quasideities, potential for Greater God-level infestation)
  • Symbol: The cracked skin and wet mouths of their victims
  • Theme Song: Fighting The Flood
  • Alignment: Chaotic Evil
  • Portfolio: A Deadly Infection Spread By Water, Demonic Possession, The Juggernaut, What They Do To Their Host's Face, Imprisoned In Ice Long Ago, Parasite Zombie
  • Domains: Viruses, Infections, Water, Possession
  • Interests: Babidi, Albert Wesker
  • Covets: The House of Water and Moisture
  • Teeth-Clenched Teamwork with: Nurgle, Typhus, The Grox
  • Rivals: The Thing, The Pod People, The Flood(Halo), Phazon
  • Enemies: Pretty much any being with water as part of their composition. High on the list are The Doctor, The SCP Foundation, The Men in Black, the House of Water and Moisture, The Imperium of Mankind, Zim, anyone from or associated with Mars like J'onn J'onnz, Marvin the Martians, The Mars People, The Martians (Mars Attacks), Amy Wong and Rei Hino, Ellen Ripley, those who've survived a zombie apocalypse like Rick Grimes, The Weather Trio, Percy Jackson, Rain, Chaos, Samus Aran
  • Dreads: The House of Ice and Cold
  • Long ago on Mars, the Ice Warriors had to contend with a viral outbreak that spreads via water. Known as the Flood, it turns its victims into a skin-cracked, zombie-like that spreads water and thus its infection. Imprisoned through being frozen in a glacier, the Flood was later released in the mid-21st century by human astronauts trying to get water for their base. And how they stopped it was a tragedy.
  • The Doctor dreaded them, in part because they remind him of one of his worst moments; the 10th Doctor breaking the laws of time and declaring himself Time Lord Victorious, all in a desperate need to stop the fixed point that was the death of the Bowie Base One crew. Captain Adelaine's suicide was what eventually snapped him out of it. The Flood barely speak, so fortunately they weren't in the mood. Instead, they were intrigued at what the House of Time And Space could do for spreading their infection.
  • The Flood desire to infest in anything water-related, so they count virtually all biological life as potential hosts. As such, they lack any real allies in the Trope Pantheon. Hearing they'd broken into the pantheon immediately set the House of Water and Moisture into panic mode, and has set up the strongest water filters around their temple. The Flood's first goal is to take control of the sub-house, and can only imagine what they might achieve hijacking Percy Jackson, Rain and Chaos. They would love to take control of Kyogre's god-like power over the rain. This worries all three members of the Weather Trio, though for obvious reasons it's Groudon who the Flood is most concerned over.
  • Because of how easy it could be spread, a number of gods have issued quarantines and warning systems while also developing an anti-microbial agent to fight off the Flood. The SCP Foundation have worked hard with the Men in Black to isolate the Flood. Death Is Cheap in the pantheon, but coming back from The Virus, not so much. Both the Imperium of Mankind and Ellen Ripley are trying to exterminate the virus that is the Flood.
  • Considered the biggest problem for its home of Mars. Good, evil or somewhere in between, Martians all over want to purge the infection from the universe. Well the Martians from Mars Attacks and Mars People initially considered weaponizing the Flood against the Earth, but that just gave the Flood more hosts. Many dread what might happen if they manage to infect the Martian Manhunter, assuming he can't just fight it off.
  • Though they have no true allies, the Flood will work out of convenience with the Grox. The deal is that they may be spread by the Grox to habitable and watery worlds in exchange for running some errands, and as the Grox normally don't live off water this was tolerate. Normally being the key word; a few Grox worlds have liquid water, it's just the atmospheric pressure is too much for most life to handle. So there is potential for the Flood being problematic, it's just low on their list.
  • Because of their virulent spread, Albert Wesker wants to experiment on the Flood to create an agent passive to his will as part of his plans of domination. He's generally interested in their capabilities too. Babidi also wanted to use the Flood to control people, thinking he could get past the "strong-willed and/or pure-hearted are immune to his mind control" rule by using it on the Flood and then letting it spread for domination. For now their biology proves too alien for him to affect, and just like last time will undoubtedly learn that Evil Is Not a Toy.
  • They shouldn't be mistaken for the more well-known Flood infection, though they understand why people do given they're both dangerous parasite zombies. The Gravemind boasts superiority while also wondering if they're some mutation of the Flood, while the more literal Flood consider their namesake serious competition in terms of spreading themselves.
  • The Flood have also found themselves competing directly with the Pod People and the Thing in hopes of replacing/infecting people and finding human hosts. Well, it's not an infection in the Pod People's case, but the danger is similar enough that most people get why the two are rivals. Nobody knows what might happen if the Thing and the Flood infect each other, and nobody wants to know. The Flood boasts that it can deal with fire much easier, given its hosts can expel water as an attack. The Flood has also recognized they're similar to Phazon in its desire to spread and infect everything it can.
  • Though not a disease strictly speaking, the Flood's nature as a virulent infection makes them something Nurgle is proud of, and some even suspect they originated because the Great Unclean One contaminated Mars' water supply in a new way. The Flood appreciate this, however consider his pathogens and plagues potential competition. For now, they agree to work together to infect everything, then fight over who wins at the end.
  • Stays far away from the House of Ice and Cold, given how they were imprisoned in a glacier and can't be active in ice. Zim, being hurt by water, was extremely paranoid about the Flood. They've informed him that they have no interest in his Earth however, since the water there hurts him because it's polluted.

@Crownless Mimic: I had Darksol planned for With My Dying Breath, I Summon You, since he's the Trope Namer, but if your suggestion has a lot more character to them, then I'll acquiesce to your pick. Worry not, the Shining Force as a whole will not be suggested again.

Thomas Mutton, God of Saying Too Much (Boss, Master, Dumuzid, the Shepherd, consort of Ishtar)

  • Intermediate God
  • Symbol: The Stray Sheep sign
  • Theme Song: Alsp Sprach Brooks, Chopin Revolutionary Etude (as a Nightmare boss)
  • Alignment: True Neutral overall (evil in actions, good in intentions)
  • Portfolio: Cool Shades Even At Night Hiding His Red Glowing Eyes of Doom, Dirty Old Man, Everyone Calls Him "Master" or "Boss", Service Sector Stereotypes, Physical God, Was Once a Man, Weeding Out Cheaters And Commitment-Incapable Men Despite Being A Cheater Himself, One-Winged Angel
  • Domain(s): Bartending, Nightmares, Population Growth
  • Allies: Vincent Brooks (kinda)
  • Consort of: Ishtar
  • Enemies: Akio Ohtori
  • Opposed by: Princess Cadance
  • Opposes: Kyu Sugardust, Ato-ko Shirogane
  • One day, while taking a drink at Moe's Tavern, Vincent mused about the Stray Sheep back home. One thing led to another, and an envoy of the Court decided to visit the bar. They found the barkeep to be a target of interest, and invited him to join the Pantheon. For reasons only he knows, Boss accepted offer.
    • That said, he shortly realized what he was ascended for: Saying Too Much, when he accidentally tipped his hand to Vincent about his schemes when the guy was just asking about Catherine's existence or what he did to Rin. This ended up tipping off Vincent to his plots as well.
    • Additionally, because he cannot be merely called Boss (due to how many others bear the same moniker), his given name Thomas Mutton was rendered public knowledge. Anything else about him is from hearsay, Vincent, or Thomas himself.
  • His temple takes the form of his Stray Sheep bar, and doubles as a pseudo-gateway for Vincent's friends to visit him, as it's "connected" to the one in his home realm.
  • As it turns out, the envoy who invited Thomas to the Pantheon in the first place had ulterior motives for ascending him; to let Princess Cadance "tear him a new one" as she had said she would do when she heard of Vincent's nightmares. And that's exactly what she did, after making sure her husband ensures that no one else would be intervening.
  • Despite what he's done, Thomas is not the mastermind behind the Nightmares; that honor goes to Astaroth. Still, he shares the same motives; maintaining population growth and weeding out cheaters, betrayers, the deceitful, the non-commited, and homosexuals.
    • Speaking of cheaters, he's in direct opposition to those who would not only turn people into Casanovas (such as Kyu) (as well as Casanovas themsleves like Akio Ohtori), but those who would ruin relationships (such as Ato-ko Shirogane). Maintaining population growth goes both ways.
    • As for harems, that's a pretty mixed bag that doesn't like dealing with, even if they have good reasons for forming them such as Shido Itsuka (actually volunteered into doing it by his sister Kotori, but he's continued going with it) or Naze Turbine, or even if it works out perfectly, like with Issei Hyodo or Touya Mochizuki.
    • But for those who try to be Casanovas but are unsuccessful, as long as they either don't succeed, or stick to one person once they found someone who reciprocates their feelings, Thomas finds them beneath his attention.
  • After hearing of what exactly his nightmares are like, a few folks are even asking him to send them those nightmares, too (it helps that Death Is Cheap in the Pantheon). Sometimes, that Rapunzel arcade game he has in the bar doesn't quite cut it.
    • That said, most folks actually have it against him for that given considering how large his criterias for targeting people are and that he's a homophobe on top of being a hypocrite. So he's made very few friends.
  • Was surprised to see Ishtar herself, whom he was a consort of, in the Pantheon. And she is not happy to see him.
    • The other Ishtar, better known as Inanna, on the other hand, proved somewhat more appealing given they come from the same multiverse, but her single-minded desire to procreate has made him a mite concerned.
  • Ended up attending a Bartenders Anonymous one day, where he met the other bartenders of the Pantheon; Moe Szyslak (the representative god of the trope/career), Tapper, Sojiro Sakura (though he's more on coffee and curry than liquor), Shizuo Heiwajima, and Jill Stingray. For the most part, he regards them all as simple rivals in the trade. However, Jill dislikes him for his homophobia as she is bisexual and her world is accepting of homosexuality (save for a few older folks).
  • Apparently kind of looks like Stan Lee to some people.

Lofwyr, God of Corporate Dragons (Hans Brackhaus, Gold Master, Gold Snout)

Hans Brackhaus, his Translator and metahuman guise
  • Greater God
  • Symbol: The logo of Saeder-Krupp
  • Alignment: Lawful Neutral, but has a Chaotic Neutral worldview
  • Portfolio: Corporate Dragon, The Ageless, The Voiceless in Dragon Form, Affably Amoral, Bad Boss and Benevolent Boss, Despises Being Locked Out of the Loop Concerning His Company, The Chessmaster, Control Freak, Morality Based On "Givers" and "Takers", officially the richest being in the Sixth World, Social Darwinist, Supernatural Gold Eyes
  • Domain(s): Dragons, Corporations, Gold
  • Translator: Hans Brackhaus who's actually his alias as a metahuman
  • Herald: The Saeder-Krupp Heavy Industries Company
  • Followers: Fafnir, Elma Joui, Glint, Griffen Mc'Candles (Dragons Wild), Luca Rohner, Joshua Rain
  • Allies: Io
  • Rivals: Other Mega Corps in the Pantheon, mainly BnL, Scrooge McDuck, The Corpus, Philip Price, Tyrell Wellick
  • Enemies: Tiamat, Smaug (currently under an uneasy truce), the Grand United Alliance of Machines, Grand United Alliance of Destruction, all Eldritch Abominations, Ornstein (and Smough), Sindragosa, Grima, Acnologia, Anankos, Fafnir
  • Distrusts: All robots and AIs, all undead
  • Opposed by: Bahamut, Alexstrasza
  • Dragons are usually known for their hoards. Corporations are known for having lots of money and power. And thus the imagery of a dragon and the idea of a corporation combined gave rise to the trope Corporate Dragon.
    • In the world of Shadowrun, its leaders aren't national presidents, monarchs, or prime ministers, but MegaCorp CEOs, and most if not all of those CEOs are dragons. And the richest of them all is Lofwyr, the CEO of Saeder-Krupp Heavy Industries, which is the second largest MegaCorp in their world, beaten only by Mitsuhama Computer Technologies, which started as a Yakuza laundering front that became lucrative in its own right, but that's another story.
    • It's because of his reputation and company's success that Lofwyr was sent an invitation to Pantheon Godhood. Seeing it as a new frontier and an opportunity to expand his business (though he's told that his assets and earnings there will be exclusive to the Pantheon and cannot be brought over to his world), he accepted the offer and became a new player in its corporate stage.
    • Technically speaking, he was already present in the Pantheon as a follower of Smaug, God of Treasure Hoarding, and he had been biding his time there for his eventual rise by observing all the corporations already present.
  • After the usual business of… setting up shop, Lofwyr took the time to fully evaluate his new surroundings. In the Pantheon, he was no longer a top dragon, and there was a whole new set of corporate players, all with differing agendas. Oh, and nations are still a thing in power.
    • It was certainly interesting to see that in here, some Corporate Executives are still able to hold the moral high ground, and some managed to remain afloat despite being a lot more blatant in their shadiness. Sure, his company is big enough to encompass an entire continent, but in the Pantheon, his influence is not quite as big. Yet. He plans to change that eventually.
  • In regards to communication with other deities, he has two methods of communication. For deities of relatively equal power as him or greater, he uses telepathy. For "lesser" lifeforms, he employs a Translator to speak on his behalf.
    • As for why Lofwyr uses a Translator in the first place, here's why: 1) their psychic voices are utterly inhuman and psychically "loud", are rarely enjoyable, and can permanently mentally scar some folks, and 2) they can't communicate through electronics like microphones or TV cameras.
  • Lofwyr's Translator is a human named Hans Brackhaus, a mid-level executive in Saeder-Krupp who corresponds with runners (read: mercenaries) a lot. However, according to him, he does not serve Lofwyr. That's because they're one and the same.
    • As for the whole being Hans Brackhaus deal, here's the reason why. All Great Dragons in his world can take on a metahuman (human, elf, dwarf, ork, troll, etc.) form. While this allows them to be their own Mouth of Sauron, most of them don't do this, as they're easier to kill in human form. That's why Lofwyr keeps it a secret, though he's aware of the "safety net" that is the House of Life And Death, but he prefers to keep people guessing, even if there are those who can see through his charade quickly and are powerful enough to .
    • Besides, the name Hans Brackhaus has been used by a number of S-K Johnsons to keep runners guessing or to give the impression that they're dealing with Lofwyr directly (to motivate them to do the job perfectly). Some elements outside of S-K have taken advantage of this fact, and have used the name to set up a false flag operation on occaision, though he eventually catches on to these, acting against them if their goals get in his way or against his image.
  • As a dragon, Lofwyr eventually got into meetings with the other dragons of the Pantheon, starting with the main three.
    • First up was Io, the progenitor of all dragonkind. Lofwyr definitely sees just how powerful he is, but fortunately all he cares for is the safety of dragonkind (and won't get involved with inter-dragon conflicts), so the Gold Master can rest a little easy with him.
    • As for Io's direct descendants however, there is considerably more friction. Bahamut is displeased with Lofwyr's ruthless business acumen but ultimately just avoids him most of the time, only crossing paths when one of Lofwyr's plots ends up being something Bahamut doesn't approve of. Lofwyr for his part thinks Bahamut is wasting his efforts being a paragon for the lesser races, but given the time period Bahamut is from, he doesn't voice this out loud.
    • As for Tiamat, matters are lot more hostile, especially when she not-so-subtly courted him in a bid for more power. Having met her brother first, who had compared Lofwyr to her in a few ways, he was resistant to her advances, seeing her worldview as barbaric and nothing else (not to mention being a sore reminder of Aden, whom he's butted heads with several times, and Alamais, his brother and arch-rival). Unlike Alamais (and Sirrurg), Lofwyr is not, strictly speaking, a dragon supremacist. He believes that respect is the due of any being of great personal power and influence, not that dragons deserve it by default. She shortly lost her temper after that, attacking his company to "teach him his place". This forced him to intervene personally, something he's rarely had to do.
      • That said, even with himself and his best guards in the fray, Tiamat proved far more dangerous (with her multiple heads and multiple breath attacks), and a more seasoned combatant. Thankfully, having suspected that she would make contact with Lofwyr eventually, Bahamut and his allies (Alexstrasza and Ysera) got involved and drove away the five-headed dragoness.
    • Smaug, whom he used to be a follower of, and is now a neighbor in both Houses, eventually attacked Saeder-Krupp when one of his hired Shadowrunners took some of the Middle-Earth dragon's loot back to Lofwyr's temple, resulting in another scuffle. Fortunately, Smaug wasn't as powerful as Tiamat and Lofwyr soon had him at an impasse. After returning the stolen loot (and disposing of the perpetrator), the two dragons came to an agreement; as long as Smaug doesn't attack Saeder-Krupp again, Lofwyr will leave his hoard alone and do what he can to keep others from daring to take from it.
    • Smaug wasn't the only neighbor he had problems with, though. Others include the very destructive Sindragosa and Grima, given their genocidal agendas. He also opposes Arthas and his Scourge by extension, who killed and revived Sindragosa in the first place.
    • Crossed paths with Fafnir when he wanted to stake a claim on Lofwyr's hoard, though the former dwarf was ultimately disappointed that most of it wasn't even gold. Still, the Great Dragon wasn't going to let this pass and they've been enemies since then.
  • Given his reputation against dragons, he's got his eyes on the Dovahkiin
  • As CEO of a MegaCorp, Lofwyr has eyes for others of his size or greater in the Pantheon. Mainly, these are Buy n Large (which was big enough to emcompass the entire world, and then ruin it and take its customers to space), Scrooge McDuck (not only has he made it big, he did it without any underhanded shortcuts), the Corpus (with its reaches spanning planetary systems, though their use of robots does make things tense between them), and E Corp.
    • He's also got other people under his radar. Such as the multiversal merchant family of Annas, even if their clientele isn't much to speak of (only weapons, magic tomes, "stat-boosters", fanservice photographs, etc.). While Rodin is just a humble weaponsmith, there's also the fact that he's a fallen angel turned demon, and very powerful to boot, as some of his employees were able to gather from rumors.
  • In his mind, "it is the duty of the enlightened sovereign to guide the lives of his inferiors, to lead by example (and to reap the rewards)." In short, the strong deserve to rule. This has drawn Lucifer's interest, despite Lofwyr's controlling tendencies, and he's invited the dragon to join the Grand United Alliance of Chaos. No conclusive reply has been made as of yet.
  • After the last one who said it ended up getting swallowed whole by him, no one dares call Lofwyr a "corrupt, self-serving corporate headmaster", even if that's mostly what he is.
  • Even though Saeder-Krupp isn't at all racist or biased against any race, metatype, gender, sexual orientation, religion, or awakened status, Lofwyr has no tolerance for AIs and other sapient machines, holding a serious mistrust for them, though his company can occasionally hire one as a freelancer. Apparently, this is because as synthetics don't require food, money, vice, or anything else the corp could offer them as benefits, buying their loyalty is virtually impossible, and enslaving them is dangerous. One good reason for this is that one rogue A.I. his company had created was used in a plot to wipe out dragonkind — and once freed, started its own plot to enslave a Great Dragon. As such, he's gone to war with Grand United Alliance of Machines and distrusts machines of all alignments, but as stated before, he might hire the help of one in certain cases.
    • He also has a dim view of Infected, ghouls, vampires, and other (near-)undead, due to his knowledge of the connection between the Human Meta-Human Vampiric Virus (that makes ghouls in his world) and the Horrors.
  • Out of principle, he opposes those who would destroy all of existence. Not only would it be bad for business, but it's also a reminder of the Horrors he and the rest of his kind are keeping at bay. He also has it out against Eldritch Abominations in general, and desires to remove them permanently by any means possible.
  • "Never deal with a Dragon."

Cackletta’s Soul 

  • Intermediate Goddess

  • Symbol: Cackletta’s eyes

  • Theme Songs: Cackletta's, Theme, Cackletta, Battle, When possessing someone, Bowletta's theme, This when her soul form is in battle

  • Alignment: Alternates between Chaotic Evil and Lawful Evil

  • Portfolio: Wicked Witch, Ambiguous Gender as Bowletta, Bat Out of Hell, Big Bad, Cognizant Limbs, Dark Action Girl, Shielded Core Boss, Death from Above, Deader than Dead, Killed Off for Real, Heads I Win, Tails You Lose, Demonic Possession, Disc-One Final Boss, Final Boss, Forgotten Fallen Friend, Greater-Scope Villain as Fawful’s boss in Minion Quest, HP to One, King Koopa Copy as Bowletta, Master of Disguise, One-Winged Angel, Our Ghosts Are Different, Playing with Fire, Portable Hole, Sequential Boss, Shock and Awe, Sore Loser, Summon Magic, Take Over the World, Turns Red, The Unfought in Minion Quest

  • Domains: Evil, Witchcraft, Disguises, Magic, Laughter, Possession, Planning

  • High Priest: Gruntilda Winkybunion

  • Followers: Sir Grodus, Emperor Ing

  • Allies: Antasma, Melkor, The Wicked Witch Of The West, Frieza, King Cold, Maleficent, Marx, The Incubators

  • Enemies:

  • Special Relationship: Fawful (Her former toady)

  • Fears: The Lich, Lord Tirek, anyone capable of destroying the soul.

  • Pities: N, Ryuko Matoi, Satsuki Kiryuin

  • No Comment On: Bowsette

  • Banned From: The Treasury

  • Not much is known about Cackletta’s past. What is known though is that she became the bean witch she is today after losing her mind.

  • Cackletta’s ascension was relatively quick once Melkor took notice of her and how persistent and cunning she was. Cackletta escaping death and obtaining a much more powerful soul form kind of sealed it for him though and he organized her ascension.

  • Has Woohoo Hooniversity as her temple, at one point having completely converted it into her lair along with Fawful by invading it themselves and turning others into monsters.

    • Speaking of Fawful, the first thing Cackletta did upon ascension was search for him. Once she found him, she learned that Fawful had become a major threat in his own right by stealing the Dark Star, conquering both Peach’s and Bowser’s Castles, brainwashing his minions, absorbing some of the Dark Star’s power and even hiring a toady of his own in the form of Midbus. To say she was impressed by this was an understatement. She respects that Fawful is independent now and doesn’t seek to have him under her thumb again. They still meet from time to time, at one point even realizing that they both met their demise inside Bowser’s body.

  • Has appeared in the Pantheon as a bean person. Cackletta is currently trying to find a way to change into her soul form at will in order to possess others without help.

  • Likes laughing. A lot. Cackletta usually does this while riding in her flying chair and even uses her cackling to taunt others.
    Cackletta: “Eeeyah ha ha ha ha!”

  • Banned from the Treasury as she kept trying to steal the Dragon Balls and Quillgin’s Box time and time again. She sees them as artifacts similar to The Beanstar and wants them to further her goals of taking over the Pantheon.

  • Mario, Luigi and Bowser were absolutely livid to hear she ascended. Bowser for taking over his body and Mario and Luigi for obvious reasons. Bowser’s hatred for Cackletta intensified when he learned that Fawful once worked for her.

  • Dhuum hates her for cheating death and technically doing it again by ascending. Cackletta always leaves clones to fight in her place when Dhuum goes after her just to mess with him.

  • Like most Nintendo Gods, Goddesses and Deities, has a bad relationship with Galeem and Dharkon for what they did. The witch hates Galeem much more than Dharkon for turning Fawful into a spirit.

  • Made fast friends with the Wicked Witch Of The West. This is due to them both being evil, green witches that love taunting their foes. This doesn’t sit well with Dorothy and her friends.

  • Is a master of disguise, as evidenced by her impersonation of Lady Lima, even appearing to be the same size as the latter when in reality Cackletta is much taller.

  • Is known to be one of Mario’s most cunning and intelligent foes. Usually learning from her mistakes and adjusting her plans to the current situation.

  • Cackletta is not afraid to get her hands dirty. When Mario & Luigi stormed Woohoo Hooniversity and Fawful was temporarily incapacitated, she took matters into her own hands and fought them herself.

  • Makes speeches before going into battle. Some examples are:

    Cackletta: "I'm going to knock you all the way back to the Mushroom Kingdom!"
    Bowletta: "My new country has no need for old superstars! It will do just fine with only one: The Great Bowletta!'
    Cackletta's Soul: "Are you still conscious? Ugh. You're a persistent pair! I shall dispose of you quickly, and then eat you for lunch!"

  • Pisses off the SCP Foundation as she can turn living beings into monsters, though it is unknown how she did this. Likely through magic.

  • Reminds Banjo & Kazooie of Gruntilda and has found herself being opposed by them.

  • Frieza likes her for her sadism and cleverness and Cackletta feels the same way about him. She fears his power though and treads carefully when working with him.

  • Is actually a good ally of Marx and is likely one of the only beings in the Pantheon the jester wouldn’t betray. This is because they both share the same goal. To make a wish and become powerful enough to rule the Pantheon. Cackletta has been taking countermeasures just in case.

    • Gets along well with Antasma for the same reasons. Their alliance is strengthened by their mutual hatred of the Mario Bros, Peach and Bowser.

  • Frighteningly enough, a number of deities have mentioned how Bowletta may very well be one of the most dangerous foes Mario has ever encountered. Reasons being that Cackletta had her magic and cunning, Bowser’s minions, strength and techniques and her own unique abilities gained after the possession. Cackletta isn’t confirming their suspicions nor is she denying them.

  • Gets along well with Maleficent. Both are evil witches who sought to use people pure of heart in order to accomplish their goal. There’s also the fact that both Cackletta and Maleficent are powerful, cunning and skilled in magic. Both of them realized this and became allies.

  • Once encountered The Lich and was killed. Her soul survived and she tried to possess him. This resulted in a Mind Rape that has Cackletta fearing for her life. She tries to avoid the Lich at all costs.

    • She also stays far away from Tirek’s temple as she does NOT want her magic stolen. Not that Cerberus would grant her entry anyway.

  • Many theorize what would happen if she turned a Puella Magi into a monster. The Incubators are quite interested in this and Madoka and Homura are both taking precautions so that the worst doesn’t happen.

  • Despite her clever planning., Prince Peasley was able to figure out her plans and warn Princess Peach. It is unknown exactly how he did this, but it is possible Cackletta had been terrorizing the Beanbean Kingdom longer than originally thought.

  • Despite being a Master of Disguise, Cackletta can’t see through them.

  • Is strangely protective of Fawful. Anyone who attacks him has earned her wrath. She loathes the Child Abuse Supporters for what they have done, but learning of the actions of Ragyo Kiryuin and Ghetsis Harmonia caused her to fly into a rage.

  • Many wonder what would happen if Cappy tried to possess her. Cackletta has stated that even she doesn’t know. Mario and Cappy aren’t taking the chance in case it backfires.

  • Wario and Waluigi hold a petty grudge against her for attacking the Beanbean Kingdom, who was making a movie about them. Cackletta could only apply her hand to her face.

  • It is unknown how Cackletta was able to command Bowser’s army as Bowletta, as when possessing him, his body looks entirely different, even sporting a pair of breasts. It is possible that Fawful brainwashed them. This is supported by him brainwashing some of Bowser’s troops in Minion Quest. Among the brainwashed would include the Koopalings. Bowser Jr, the Koopalings, Kamek and Bowser’s Minions all have a hatred for Cackletta.

  • "The moment when all the world will bow down to me has come at last..."

  • Opposed by:
  • Respected by:
  • After Queen Sheba was born during the First Armageddon that created the Trinity of Realities, she came to live in the hellish land of Inferno. Afterwards, the Demons of Inferno entered into an endless war with the Angels of Paradiso, who sought to release their ruler, Jubileus, from her endless slumber, which would reunite the Trinity of Realities and result in the complete destruction of the world.
  • In contrast to the rigid hierarchy of the Laguna, the Infernal Demons engage in constant and chaotic battles for supremacy, only willing to work together during their wars with the Angels of Paradiso. However, there are several known types of Demons of varying power: Infernal Gods, demonic deities who control aspects of reality such as time, the sun and death, Demon royalty, who rule over various locations in Inferno, and lesser demons, who typically appear in groups to overpower their enemies.
  • Over the centuries, two clans formed among humanity who worked hard to maintain the balance of the world's light and dark forces in order to ensure the just passage of time after Aesir granted them the Eyes of the World, with the Umbra Witches receiving the Left Eye of Darkness. The Demons would form contracts with the Witches, allowing them to be summoned in battle. However, if a Witch died, their soul would be taken to Inferno, where, according to Rodin, they are forced to "wander around scared shitless for eternity."
  • As a group:
    • The Infernal Demons ascended into the Pantheon as a response to the ascension of the Angels of Paradiso. In order to maintain the balance between light and darkness, as well as bolster the forces of the GUAC, Queen Sheba and Lucifer drew upon their respective powers and successfully managed to ascend the Demons of Inferno.
    • The Demons quickly started launching assaults against Jubileus, the Angels of Paradiso and Loptr, though their lack of organization and cooperation resulted in their first couple assaults being less effective than desired. While the Demons who've made pacts with Bayonetta and Jeanne have remained loyal to them, the rest are content to ignore them as long as they stay out of their way. Surprisingly, the Demons' constant war against the Angels has resulted in them generally being less of a problem around the Pantheon than expected.
    • Many of the Demons strongly dislike and fear the famed weaponsmith and fallen angel Rodin, who was feared as the most dangerous demon in the entire barren wasteland of Inferno until he disappeared and came to reside in the human world. The fact that Rodin regularly travels to Inferno in order to hunt down and kill various Demons with his bare hands and use their souls to craft his weapons has resulted in them occasionally attacking him, though Rodin himself regards these encounters as being amusing at best as well as good opportunities to acquire more souls.
    • Unsurprisingly, they generally dislike Father Balder due to him being a Lumen Sage. While the Demons who've made pacts with Bayonetta and Jeanne are willing to tolerate his presence and leave him alone, all the other Demons have no reluctance with attacking him, though Balder has proven to be perfectly capable of fighting them off with minimal difficulty.
    • Although they're ostensibly ruled over by Queen Sheba, she has a rather hands-off-approach to her title, seemingly content to let them do as they please and fight among themselves for supremacy. As a result, many of them ended up in the service of the other various Demon Lords throughout the Pantheon. While the main bulk of their forces were provided to Lucifer and the GUAC by Queen Sheba, numerous others ended up serving the likes of Dis, Mundus, The Beast, Sargeras, Fortinbras, Satan the Divine Judge, Satan who lost Paradise, Demise, Ganondorf, Ghirahim, Satan who haunts the Belmonts, Asmodeus, Diablo, Baal, Dul'Mephistos, Mephisto, Clown/The Violator, the Princes of Hell, the Devil of Inkwell Isles and even the Seven Mortal Sins.
    • Through their alliance with the GUAC, many of the Demons also came to serve the elite demon group known as the Ten Commandments. Hekatoncheir ended up bonding with Drole due to both of them being multi-armed demonic Giants.
    • They also became allies of sorts with the Cacodemons, Cyberdemons and Tyrants. Though they're from a different universe, they hold the same Social Darwinist views as the Infernal Demons, which resulted in them being able to seamlessly join them in their constant infighting as well as their wars against the Angels. However, this also further annoyed the Doom Slayer, who had been one of the first to engage the Infernal Demons after their ascension. Having fought his way through their temple, which looks like Inferno, on several occasions, the Demons quickly developed a habit of avoiding him whenever possible.
    • Being creatures of darkness with mostly evil members, they swiftly drew the attention of the Heartless, in whom they found kindred spirits. The Heartless are frequently used by the Demons as fodder in their wars against the Angels, often seen fighting side by side with Lesser Demons. However, the Demons generally don't like it when the Heartless start showing up inside their temple and typically destroy any invading Heartless whenever they encounter them.
    • Their conflict with Jubileus and the Angels quickly resulted in them opposing YHVH and the Grand United Alliance of Law, whom they regard as being no different from their mortal enemies. By extension they oppose all other angels in the Pantheon, regardless of their alignment, and thus became enemies with the Archangel Michael, the Seven Heavenly Virtues, Flonne, Artina, Jibril, Tyrael, Auriel, Malthael and Castiel.
    • Their dislike of Jubileus also extends towards other creator gods such as the Love that Moves the Stars, Eru Ilúvatar, Chakravartin, Chuck Shurley, The Alpha and Omega, God who hangs out with Bob, The One Above All and The Presence. However, they don't really pose much of a threat to them, much to their own frustration.
    • Many expected the Demons to side with Dharkon and Vaatu against their light counterparts, Galeem and Raava respectively. However, while many did indeed end up cooperating with Vaatu, they ended up opposing Darkhon due to the fact that they don't agree with his desire to destroy everything.
    • The Demons were quite alarmed to learn that the Legendary Dark Knight Sparda and the Umbra Witch Eva, who faced the amassed armies of Inferno in the past, were in the Pantheon. Recognizing their strength, they tend to keep their distance from them.
    • Aside from the Doom Slayer, they quickly drew the attention of other demon hunters such as Dante, Vergil, Nero, Spawn, Samanosuke Akechi, Yusuke Urameshi, Illidan Stormrage and the Winchester brothers. While Lesser Demons are generally treated as fodder, with many hunters being able to take them down with relative ease, stronger Demons tend to pose a much greater challenge, with only particularly strong hunters like Dante, Spawn and Illidan Stormrage being known to have taken down some of them on their own.
    • They've occasionally clashed with the Nephilim Horsemen War and Death, as they consider the existence of the hybrids to be a threat. However, since the Nephilim themselves ultimately desire to maintain balance and protect creation, the Demons don't currently regard them as their highest priority.
    • Unsurprisingly, pious humans are generally opposed to them, with Dante Alighieri and Jeanne d'Arc in particular having fought them on several occasions. Having famously traveled through all 9 circles of Inferno, Dante tends to draw a lot of enmity from them.
  • Applies to two or more:
    • Due to their resemblance to past enemies, Malphas, Scolopendra, Phantasmaraneae and Baal have all clashed with Dante and Nero on a number of occasions, though they're generally willing to leave Malphas, Baal and Phantasmaraneae alone, as the former two are still loyal to Bayonetta and the latter is generally benevolent and rarely encountered anyway.
    • Gomorrah and Labolas have both developed a rivalry with Cerberus, who is occasionally charged with guarding the entrance of their temple. Being very aggressive and highly territorial, Gomorrah regularly attacks Cerberus whenever they meet, whereas Labolas tends to be friendlier and even playful towards him instead.
    • The Little Devils are an infamous band of demon youth led by King Zero. By using the Infernal Communicator, one is able to temporarily contract the Little Devils, calling upon their power to attack one's foes. Being relatively benign Demons, they generally get along with other friendly skelletons such as Sans, Papyrus, Sir Daniel Fortesque, Jack Skellington and the Skull Knight.
  • Exclusive to Madama Butterfly:
    • A demon taking the form of a woman who left this world under unfortunate circumstances, only to be reincarnated in hell. Unlike her beautiful, swallowtail butterfly-like appearance, Madama Butterfly is particularly brutal, and her reputation is well known even amongst the denizens of Inferno.
    • Having once clashed with Temperantia, the Cardinal Virtue is very eager to settle the score, as their last battle culminated in one final blow that caused them both to unmanifest. Whenever their respective forces clash, the two can often be seen engaging in hand to hand combat.
  • Exclusive to Madama Styx:
    • Queen of the River Styx, the boundary between humanity and Hades. The moths born from the magical power that flows through her body are charged with luring the souls of sinners into Inferno.
    • She is on amicable terms with Hades and Charon, as the two ultimately require her permission to get souls across the River Styx into the Underworld. She notably doesn't really care much for when Hades becomes villainous, as long as he respects her sovereignty.
  • Exclusive to Malphas:
    • An enigmatic raven-black bird shrouded in the mysteries of the sky. Ever curious, Malphas has filled itself with all the world's knowledge and mysteries. However, this same curiosity has led to a rather brutal demeanor, causing the bird to tear those it encounters to shreds with its sharp beak and razor-like talons.
    • Having been responsible for killing Fortitudo by repeatedly pecking its face until it punched through Fortitudo's head and shattered the rock behind it, the two have continued their mutual enmity in the Pantheon, often fighting each other whenever their respective forces collide.
  • Exclusive to Hekatoncheir:
    • A giant endowed with six fearsome arms capable of pulverizing mountains, those unfortunate enough to fall underfoot of the demon are subject to days-long violent earthquakes. Lacking knowledge, but brimming with brutality, it is said that even the most powerful of conjurers should take heed of the danger this beast presents.
    • Due to having aided Bayonetta against Temperantia by pulling off the Cardinal Virtues' arms and pummeling him until his face was compressed into his body, Temperantia has continued to hold a grudge against him. While Hekatoncheir doesn't particularly care about Temperantia's grudge, the two nonetheless frequently clash with each other whenever their factions battle.
  • Exclusive to Scolopendra:
    • A vile centipede hailing from Frejetonta (Phlegethon), a river of boiling blood in the depths of Inferno, rumors speak of its body exceeding ten kilometers in length. Moving unlike anything its size, its deftness allows it to wrap around and constrict its prey in the blink of an eye.
    • Having previously fought against Iustitia in which it coiled around its body and squeezed it until the Cardinal Virtue was reduced to a bloody ball, the two have regularly been seen fighting one another on the battlefield during the wars between Inferno and Paradiso.
  • Exclusive to Phantasmaraneae:
    • Phantasmaraneae nests upon a sea of magma, deep within the furthest reaches of Inferno. Rarely seen upon the face of the Earth, even sightings of the demon in hell are a seldom event, leading to its name, which means phantom spider. While having the frightening appearance of a spider, it is a curious beast, and should one have the good fortune to encounter Phatasmaraneae, one should treat it with care and respect, in hope of receiving rare treasures and secrets in return.
    • When summoned by Bayonetta against Sapientia, Phantasmaraneae ended up ripping off his horns and part of his face, as well as trapping him on its web and letting its children tear his body to shreds. Although it prefers to stay in the depths of Inferno, Phantasmaraneae has occasionally ventured into battle alongside the other Demons, during which its usually seen fighting against Sapientia.
  • Exclusive to Madama Khepri:
    • A goddess of Inferno who controls time and the sun. It is said that she can determine a person's fate by gazing upon the long shadow that forms between their body and the light extending from the land of the dead. By binding a contract with Khepri and forfeiting their soul, one can gain an almost infinite knowledge of time and the secret technique to control it.
    • Having previously made a contract with the Umbra Witch Rosa, Bayonetta's mother, Madama Khepri was quite happy to reunite with her in the Pantheon and the two have since continued working together. Her pact with Rosa also resulted in her being on amicable terms with Rosa's husband, the Lumen Sage Balder, as well as the Umbra Witch Eva and the Legendary Dark Knight Sparda.
    • As a Demon Goddess of time and the sun, she's on relatively friendly terms with the other time and sun deities in the Pantheon such as Chronoa, Chronormu, Clockwork, Ra, Helios and Amaterasu. They were all initially wary of her due to her Demonic nature, but ultimately warmed up to her when she proved herself to be generally benevolent.
    • As the Protector of Time, she quickly came to oppose Caius Ballad and the Reverse-Flash, as the former destroyed the concept of time in his universe, while the latter is known for changing the timeline for the worse due to his pettiness.
  • Exclusive to Mictlantecuhtli:
    • A gigantic bat that lurks in one of the darkest and deepest of Inferno's endless caves. It is said to leave trails of the plague wherever it goes. The protrusion on its head is not an eye, but a spiritual sensory organ that can allow Mictlantecuhtli to access the world in far deeper ways than beings who must only rely on sight alone.
    • Due to having the same name as the Aztec god of death, Mictlantecuhtli managed to draw the attention of the Aztec gods Quetzalcoatl and Huehuecoyotl. Neither of them particularly like the demonic bat, as they believe that it gives their fellow god a bad name, which he's already prone to unfairly receiving.
  • Exclusive to Hydra:
    • A once beautiful maiden who was banished to hell for the sins of her younger sister and mutilated into a snakelike monster with seven heads. Her human heart has long since been lost, and she viciously attacks anything she deems an enemy. Those trapped by her seven heads must suffer slow, painful deaths. Out of her many heads, only one is real; slicing off any of the others will not amount to much more than a scratch.
    • She's developed a fierce rivalry with the Lernaean Hydra, who is similarly a creature with multiple heads that it's capable of regrowing. However, their fights usually end in a draw as they tend to just keep cutting off each others' heads until someone comes along to separate them.
  • Exclusive to Diomedes:
    • Diomedes was one of the four flesh-eating mares that belonged to Diomedes of Thrace, their unnatural was believed to have been the cause of their madness, and some stories say that the mares also expelled fire when they breathed. As the eighth of his Twelve Labours, Hercules was sent by King Eurystheus to steal the Mares from Diomedes. In all versions of the story, Diomedes was eventually fed to his own horses, which calmed them down and gave Hercules the opportunity to bind their mouths shut and easily take them back to King Eurystheus.
    • Eventually, the horses were murdered and arrived in hell. Of the four, the soul of one inherited the name of their former owner and was reborn as a demon. The large blade extending from its forehead is a soul reaper that leaves a trail of mutilated dead in whatever direction it runs. Though it typically hates being treated like a horse, it tolerates those who have proven themselves worthy.
    • Upon learning of his identity, both Hercules and Alexander the Great showed great respect and awe for his strength and power. Hercules' ability to subdue Diomedes has resulted in him becoming one of the few that the horse allows to ride. Alexander has favorably compared him to his own horse, Bucephalus, who is said to be a descendant of the four mares.
    • After being given to King Eurystheus, he dedicated the horses to Hera and, according to some versions, ordered the horses taken to Olympus to be sacrificed to Zeus. However, Zeus refused them, and sent wolves, lions, and bears to kill them. As a result, Diomedes is loyal to Hera but has a strong dislike of Zeus, which Hera finds very amusing.
  • Exclusive to Carnage:
    • Carnage are a type of savage, poisonous bugs that nest in the cursed arrows of the bows "Kafka" and "Samsa". Pulling a string of force and releasing it vigorously, they jump at high speed and eat their target. Although they die quickly, their bodies are composed of various kinds of poisons and bacteria, allowing them to take away the lives of thousands of people even in a short period of time.
    • Several swarms of Carnage quickly became subservient to Megaguirus and are regularly seen flying alongside the Meganulons doing her her bidding and wreaking havoc around the Pantheon. However, this also resulted in them becoming enemies with Rodan, who has eaten several of them during their encounters and has proven resistant to their poisons.
    • In order to keep them under control, Shino Aburame, Agitha and Sig are often dispatched to deal with Carnage whenever they're causing trouble. The insect-lovers proved capable of controlling them, at least to an extent, and usually just guide them back to their temple in order to avoid harming them or anyone else. Shino in particular has expressed an interest in taming them, though his efforts have, thus far, been unsuccessful.
  • Exclusive to Insidious:
    • A hellish ark that, while seemingly leading sinners to the Garden of Eternal Pleasures at the end of the world, was in actuality abducting them to compete in a massive bloodbath. The souls who boarded Insidious are led nowhere. Surrounded by the stench of death and rotten flesh, they massacred each other, struggling over whatever morsels of food to be come across. With a unique organ in its body that converts death into demonic energy, Insidious always carries a tremendous amount of power. A myriad of hell's creature's live within its gut, making him useful as an assault ship during wars with Paradiso. If swallowed by Insidious, the only way to escape is to stand atop a tower of corpses and wait for him to open his jaw while he engorges with his next feeding. However, those who take pleasure in killing may find their true Garden of Eternal Pleasure within this demon's bowels.
    • When not serving as an assault ship in the wars with Angels, Insidious can occasionally be spotted ominously flying through the Pantheon, looking for its next meal. It eventually formed a rivalry with the similarly omnivorous Monstro, and the two have occasionally engaged in bizarre battles during which they both tried to consume each other.
    • Due to its resemblance to Monstro, it quickly became enemies with those who had previously been eaten by him, such as Sora, Donald, Goofy and Riku.
  • Exclusive to Alraune:
    • A woman who doused herself in mandrake poison and took her own life as a means of getting revenge on the husband who left her. The poison continued through her skin and devoured her soul. Consumed by hallucinations, she was at last reincarnated in Inferno. Myth places her as the young daughter of a noble estate, but none of her past visage can be determined from her current demon form. She searches the bottom of hell for the most exquisite souls, then injects poison into their nerves to make them eternal "lovers" at her palace. Insatiable desire and obsession have painted her heart so thickly that she will never know peace. Not even with the sacrifices of a thousand souls, or a million...
    • After Jeanne died and went to Inferno, Alraune managed to capture Jeanne's soul to leech off of her power. She fought against Bayonetta and Madama Butterfly, whom she possessed a fierce rivalry and hatred for, when they tresspassed into her territory to rescue Jeanne. After being defeated, her soul was sealed inside the whip Alrune by Rodin, who then gave it to Bayonetta.
    • Desiring revenge against Madama Butterfly, Bayonetta and Rodin, Alraune has managed to form an alliance with Poison Ivy, Durathror and Audrey II, who similarly have the power to control plants. However, Alraune regards them merely as means to an end, and plans to take their souls when she no longer considers them useful.

@ Piccolo

Lady Lucifer would never, ever, ever accept defeat on such terms. It'd be entirely out of character; she may covet Lord Lucifer's position as a Lord of Chaos, but she wouldn't take a dive over the Grand General position: she's simply too prideful to throw a fight on principle. Not to mention she's way stronger than Piccolo to begin with: if Kid Goku could defeat him, she'd crush him effortlessly. If anything, it'd be the opposite result: she beats him and makes him her underling.

@ nightelf: I didn't enough know there was a Trope Namer. Swore I checked

@ RJ: The Vex have also been known to have a presence on Mars so they can be rivals with the Flood, though they ultimately are unconcerned with them. While there The Vex share the distinction of being infectious through contact with their radiolarian fluid it is also something their technology shares as well. They also operate on a grander scale they've demonstrated the ability to fully mechanize entire planets and their ultimate goal is wanting to subvert all of existence. In fact, they've already succeeded many times before their universe's inception, and it only started to change when the powers of Light and Dark stepped in to fight each other.

@ Azure: While they enemies with the Assassins Brotherhood too, I'd imagine they'd be also quite cautious of The Dark Brotherhood as well, being essentially a death cult and all. It'd also be worrying that both The Dovahkiin and Sheogorath (when once the Champion of Cyrodiil) were also supposedly apart of the Dark Brotherhood themsleves.

And speaking of Sheogorath, he'd be their enemy by principle of being the most chaotic of the Daedric Princes. In fact, his entire existence came from a orderly Princes being transformed into their complete antithesis. Naturally, he'd be obligated to mess with them whenever possible.

Here is my first draft for Malty Melromarc and Iris. Are there any suggestions on who could be allies to the latter?

Malty Melromarc, Bitch Goddess Accuser of Heinous But False Crimes and Compulsive Liars (Myne, First Princess of Melromarc Kingdom, Bitch Goddess (literally), all offensive names as allowed by royal decree, Witch, Mary, Fragment of Medea Pireth Machina)
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/malty_anime.png
  • [tup]s: 0
  • Potential House: Criminal Actions and Trickery
  • Rank: Lesser God (Fragment of an Overdiety)
  • Symbol: The Slave Crest that was placed on her in during the trial.
  • Alignment: Neutral Evil
  • Portfolio:
  • Domains: Betrayal, Magic, Royalty, Corruption
  • Heralds: Every other Fragment of Medea, the Corrupt Church of the Three Heroes, Tact
  • High Priestess: Lila Rossi (Liar Aspect)
  • Allies: Raynare, Crimson Court, Junko Enoshima
  • Enemies: Naofumi and his Party, Issei Hyoudo, Ange, Hilda, Salamandinay, Tusk, Shiroe, Akatsuki, Night Raid (especially Tatsumi and Lubbock), Emperor Calus, Princess Pretty Cures
  • Conflicting Opinions: Prime Minister Honest
  • Opposed by: Embryo
  • Malty Melromarc is the corrupt and vile princess of Melromarc. Having posed as an adventurer named Myne, she gets close to Naofumi and pretends to be a loyal party member, only to stab him in the back by robbing him of his equipment and framing him for attempting to rape her, turning Naofumi into a cynical man unwilling to trust women. From there, Malty goes out of her to antagonize Naofumi sadistically and abuse her authority to ruin other people's lives, all the while conspiring to take the throne of Melromarc through any means necessary. After her mother returns to Melromarc and exposes her for the despicable liar she truly is, Malty is spared from execution, at the cost of losing her royal title and having her name legally changed to "Bitch", the vile former princess still schemes to kill off her family and Naofumi, which results in an attempted coup that results in her being send off as the 10,000 plaything to the King of Faubley. After being saved by Tact, she then uses him in an attempt to conquer the world and kill her enemies, only for Melromarc to easily defeat Takt's forces and force him to watch his comrades be killed one by one. Naofumi approaches her with an offer that he'll let her go if she renounces Takt, only as a means of breaking him further, which Malty foolishly accepts without hesitation. Instead of being released after betraying Takt, she is burned at the stake as witch before her soul is fed to Soul Eaters, ensuring she can never harm anyone again.
    • Despite this, the Pantheon got a rather nasty surprise when Naofumi's party and some of their allies were investigating the House of Crime for reports of a mysterious distortion. A nasty and haughty laugh was heard, and to the horror of Naofumi's party, Malty had made her entrance into Pantheon despite her soul having been devoured in the mortal world. Malty doesn't know how it happened nor does she care, since she now has another to take power in a new world. After barely escaping everyone's attempts to capture her, Malty decided to lay low and find a new opportunity to turn the situation around.
    • Nobody is sure how Malty is alive, though some have suspected that Malty's original incarnation in another time, Medea, had used the last the power to ensure an alternate Malty would survive and end up in the Pantheon. No matter the case, the Pantheon is now high alert, since Naofumi knows from experience just how dangerous she is everyone around her.
  • While she falsely accused other people before, her ascension came from her long streak of treachery with the Heroes of Melromarc, particularly with the Shield Hero. Naofumi never took it lightly, especially since she only got close just to rob him and frame him for attempted rape, making him a pariah. Malty in turn wants to get revenge on Naofumi for humiliating her by having her name legally changed to "Bitch" and getting her stripped of her royal title, even she brought all of that on herself.
  • A lot of goddesses and their female followers took serious offense to her actions. Those in the House of Royalty were the most offended over how she abused her power as First Princess so malevolently in a matriarchal system and even conspired to kill her own mother. None of them showed any sympathy when she was humiliatingly stripped of her title, literally renamed Bitch (and other similar names as allowed by the Melromarc royal decree), and became the subject of the same crimes she falsely accused people of as the 10,000th wife of a sadistic king.
    • That mostly applies to those on the Good Alignment. Even though in the Evil Alignment are wary of her due to her nature of biting whatever hand feeds her. Only a few chosen deities are able to sneak her into this House.
  • Among all Royalty deities, Ange was pissed off the most, covering Tusk's ears over what she says. Hilda was second behind Ange's sentiments since even her initial behavior towards the Breakout Princess did not compare to what Malty did; Hell, she would prefer Ange's former princess self over her. Salamandinay joined in on their farewell of good riddance when her Humiliation Conga came in.
  • Issei also took her crimes personally, for it reminded him of his relationship with Raynare. Her friendship with the Fallen Angel never made anything better. Issei even worries that he might have ended up in the same position as Motoyasu if he let his desire for a harem blind him to common sense.
  • Shiroe would not have a positive opinion of her crimes against the heroes and especially Naofumi. He would, however, enjoy the karma inflicted onto her in the mortal realm. While Akatsuki has a habit of kneeing those who attempt to say anything perverted, she would view Malty's false charges as quite despicable.
  • Malty is on amicable terms with Prime Minister Honest. The Crapsack World of the Empire he runs would be a perfect place for her to thrive if he was not running it from the shadows. Her experience with another Fat Bastard is believed to be the source of her doubts.
    • Speaking of the Prime Minister, Night Raid also marked her for death.
      • Among all members, Tatsumi seeks to put her down for actions are worse take on what Leone did to him on their first meeting.
      • Lubbock is next in line for how she toyed with the Spear Hero. Not that hasn't had experience with fighting women, but his role as an assassin and real love for his Boss makes cautious over other girls.
      • Among the female members, Najenda and Akame find her actions unacceptable in any government system. Mine and Chelsea are both ticked off by her antics.
  • Emperor Calus had people like her thrown to the baying mobs as penance for their crimes against the people. If he and Matly's mother ever met, he would have agreed on the same kind of punishment, except having her Cruel and Unusual Death go a little faster.
  • The only section in the House of Royalty that accepts her is the Crimson Court. Appearances aside, she fits well within their group and gives a few laughs over the crimes she committed.
  • Junko Enoshima gets along with her well and relishes in the despair she inflicts. That won't stop them however from attempting to backstab the other if it means getting what they want (Junko when it comes to despair, Malty when it comes to a better opportunity).
  • One alternate timeline revealed that Malty was a part of of the equally sadistic and vile goddess Medea, who reality-warped her into existence to cause as much ruin as humanely possible. When Malty and all of her human pawns were either cast aside or destroyed, she decided to take part directly, even going so far as to raise all of Naofumi's deceased allies (including Malty's human mother Queen Mirella) as undead slaves, only to be destroyed by own power and erased from existence by Naofumi. While the Malty here seems to come from a timeline without any of her divine origins, Malty is interested in Medea and hopes to claim the same power for herself so she'll be free to do whatever she wants without consequence. Nobody, not even Embryo of all people, is willing to someone as vile and irresponsible as her claim such power.
    • When she learned that an alternate Malty was part of an equally sadistic Goddess, Ange was sure that she would be in cahoots with a certain Tuner. It came to a shock to her and all other female deities that even Embryo opposed her, his official reason being how her use of Waves destroyed multiple worlds into nothingness all for the hell of it, rather than creating new worlds to start over. Ange is still highly skeptical of this and such an alliance has left a taste she will spend gallons of mouthwash cleaning out.

  • During their sixth adventure, Lan and MegaMan saved a girl named Iris, befriending her as she helps the duo out in certain situations, such as pointing them towards a CopyBot and stopping certain disasters from occuring. Iris is revealed to be a NetNavi using a CopyBot to interact with the real world, as well as the compassionate part of Colonel.EXE extracted by Lord Wily. Iris fled after being used to control military weapons, finding herself in a CopyBot and attending school, befriending several children her age. There she realized not all humans are violent, coming to enjoy the peace. When she saw Lan Hikari fight against all odds, it also allowed her grow courageous, having been too scared to fight previously. She and her brother Colonel would sacrfice their lives to stop the remaining Cybeast, though not before Iris tries to confess her feelings for Lan before deciding not to go through with it.
  • After Lan and MegaMan met the Reploids Iris and Colonel, briefly mistaking them for the NetNavis they know, the duo had gone through some disappointment that their friend and comrade hadn't ascended yet. One day however, Lan receives an e-mail from an anonymous source, and to his and MegaMan's surprise, they received residual data and source code of Iris.EXE herself, making it possible to recreate her. Immediately, the duo went to the House of Technology, enlisting all the programmers they could find (such as Chihiro Fujisaki, Jérémie Belpois, Kevin Flynn, etc) to help reconstruct her. After some time passed they succeeded, and Iris awoke to find the brothers right in front of her. A happy reunion ensued.
    • Following their success, the House of Technology also went out of its way to build a CopyBot for her, allowing her to walk outside of cyberspace and among the Pantheon itself. Iris has finally found a place to call home, and she is able to hang out with Lan and MegaMan as much as she wants. Although Iris does learn that Lan had married Mayl in his adult years, she already accepted it, since she figured she never had a chance with Lan and wants him to be happy anyway.
  • Iris usually pays visits to the Houses of Beast, Plants, and Nature, being a young girl who loves nature and animals, as shown by how she once showed sympathy towards captive fish in aquariums and believed they belong in their natural habitats.
  • Although Iris now has friends to protect her, she still has enemies in the Pantheon who want to use her Technopathic abilities, especially those in the House of War. Iris was used to control military weapons once, and she does not to ever go back to being a weapon to harm people again. She has since decided to train to defend herself should the need arise, having only once fought against the Cybeasts alongside her brother.

[up] For Malty, Ren Amamiya was falsely accused of a crime by Corrupt Politician Masayoshi Shido after trying to stop him from harassing a woman.

Perhaps an interaction with other liars like Belial, Kokichi Oma, and Carcano M91/38.

Fix her title to something like Unholy Prophet of False Rape Accusations and Compulsive Liars to sound more natural.

For Iris, B.B was created by the Moon Cell's Sakura Matou's feeling of love for Hakuno Kishinami after being ejected from her because it conflicted with her nature as a NPC. She then created Meltlillith and Passionlip who are also fragments of her personality and mixed with mythological goddesses and figures.

[up] Since you are including clones, The Grineer in Medical Conditions have Clone Degeneration so they should too be included. After that, update links and should be good to go
