Trope Pantheons Discussion

What would Ventress think of Starkiller, another ex-Sith, and powerful enough to take on even Palpatine himself? Rival?

• When it comes to underage superspies, there are several examples, but out of them all, by way of picking names from a grab bag, 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, since 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, and the first thing he gifted them (among several other things) were another set of Machete Elastic Wonders (read:sturdy multi-purpose rubber bands).
• Due to the… quality of the fourth film, these two are from prior to that. No one is to bring those up, and neither Carmen nor Juni (especially the latter) are proud of what's happened there.
• Applies to both:
  • Are a big hit in the House of Children and all the non-evil kids in the House of Family.
    • They also have their eyes on Kevin McAllister, and plan on helping him become a Spy Kid just like them.
  • Thanks to their adventures in the Island of Lost Dreams, specifically a certain temple that removed all vocal audio, the two have gained telepathy powers, though it's only exclusive between the two, seems to have a very long range, and works even in a virtual world.
  • As secret agents, the Cortez siblings correspond with those of similar "careers" such as the WOOHP agents, KND Sector V, Raz, and Kim and Ron.
  • 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 plot at least twice before.
    • Speaking of robots, because of the above, they naturally have particular reasons to oppose the Grand United Alliance of Machines, XANA most of all.
    • Of course, they know that not all robots are bad, which Jenny Wakeman quickly proved to them. And with her wide arsenal, she's proven to be a valuable ally.
  • 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.
  • Having been to an island full of genetically-modified animals (namely the mix-and-match kind), they've also checked out the sub-House of Genetic Engineering and have taken an interest in the world of Avatar (in addition to the bending arts).
  • They wondered why the Guy was much smaller than they remembered when they last met him. It turns out to just be Frodo, who's a more humble fellow, and is still grasping at the concept of advanced technology despite being in the Pantheon for far longer.
    • Less amusing was their run in with Kevin, especially after finding out just what he's done, and what he's continuing to do.
  • Having had to go through a video game to stop its creator from imposing his will on its players, it drew attention from the Sword Art Online deities, especially Kazuto Kirigaya and Asuna Yuuki, who have been trapped inside a video game (and where death is just as real) by its creator Kayaba. Naturally, they oppose not only him, but Sugou as well since he's much worse. They also got acquainted with Neo and his Zion allies.
• Exclusive to Carmen:
  • As newcomers to their current craft who quickly excelled at it, and are always taking care of the brother figures in their lives, Carmen gets along quite well with Hermione.
  • Found a kindred spirit in Helen Graham, who had similarly attempted to mend the ways of a man that she likes before eventually realizing it was pointless and ditching them. That said, Helen's husband Arthur Huntingdon died due to his alcoholism sometime after Helen left him, much to her relief, whereas Gary Giggles actually did change for the better after Carmen stopped chasing him.

entered into a relationship with a despicable man out of a naive belief that it was her duty to help him mend his ways

• Exclusive to Juni:
  • Has two "pets" in the form of a beetle-shaped Robot Buddy named Ralph and a little "spider-monkey" from one of his friends Dr. Romero.
  • Given the apparent corruption in the OSS's agents, 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, and he's encountered other youths in the same line of work. As such, he's gotten to know others in this line of work such as Kirigiri, Detective Conan, the Milky Holmes group, etc. He also heard of the Detective Prince as well as her "Successor" and knows not to trust the latter given his deeds.
  • Given they're both insecure redheads who often don't have the best of luck, and must learn to outgrow their fears and feelings of worthlessness to become better, Juni hit it off really well with Ron, and sympathizes with how "disliked" he is.
  • For reasons he can't understand, he's frightened of Michael Myers, and not just because he's a nigh-unstoppable serial killer. Myers for his part sometimes takes the time to pursue the Spy Kid when the opportunity arises.

  • White Diamond: Crunch Bandicoot, Rick Sanchez
• When it comes to the trope Gem Heart, there was once talk of assembling all the Crystal Gems together (including Lapis Lazuli and the then-unascended Peridot, as well as Bismuth) to represent the role. However, they've all shown to be ideal representatives of the (new) tropes they represent^note The reason the Phantom Thieves of Hearts were all brought together despite that was due to them mostly arriving as a result of hype and some of them having tenuous ties with the tropes they represent. And so when someone made an offhand suggestion of ascending their precursors instead, Steven took it and decided to nominate the Diamond Authority.
• As for their introduction, Steven, with Court escorts, was the one who invited them. He also did a lot of arrangements and preparations to ensure that the ceremony will at least not turn bloody. He got a lot of help from the GUAG Ministry Of Atonement in this regard.
• Their ascension ceremony was an epic one, featuring their Combining Humongous Mecha landing in the designated site and their Gems introducing them to everyone in attendance before being officially relieved from duty. That said, given the Diamonds' previous alignments, especially the fact that they were galactic conquerors only a few years ago, it was an extremely awkward and tense affair all around, to put it mildly, especially when it comes to slavery, and after people got a look at Pink Pearl's broken eye, which was a point of interest/concern/anger for some.
• But if Steven was able to turn them around, and given all the other redeemed folks in the GUAG, and what the Diamonds have been up to since then, then perhaps the Diamond Authority can have a chance, and so Cosmos officiated their entry.
• Applies to all or two of them:
  • In regards to their residency, due to… intense environmentalist issues, the Diamonds were provided a planet that is rich on minerals but lacking in significant fauna in which to colonize, such as a T0 planet, and a few Warp Pads between there and their Pantheon temple were also constructed (big enough to account for their size). That said, plant life seems to be blooming there after a few weeks since they've set up. There are even potted plants (sized accordingly, of course) in Yellow's wing.
  • In addition, to the annoyance of Yellow, Steven apologized in having been hasty and shortsighted in getting her to dismantle her military; after all, it's still necessary to have a defense force for the colonies the Diamond Authority currently have, and given what the Pantheon has, they might need every asset they can get in protecting their territory.
  • It's true that the Diamonds can be very formidable, but given Gems have been their opponents, that's understandable, as most of their empire's tools were for quelling dissidents in their populace. That said, that doesn't mean they're pushovers against other non-human (mostly organic) lifeforms by any capacity. For instance, Yellow's electricity could still short-circuit mechanical entities (and it's still electricity, with all the potential power that entails), and Blue's emotion powers could get to Empaths. And who knows what other aliens they must've combated during Eras 1 and 2.
    • Speaking of conquest, folks wonder what drove them to doing so in the first place, and how White even got the whole thing taking off. After all, since they don't require the same sustenance most organics do, it can't be a matter of resources. Theories abound, like the possibility of precursors programming the Diamonds long ago, or preparation for an attack that ultimately never came or is still coming. No definitive answers have been provided as of yet, but it's implied that White's need to spread her own then-perceived perfection across the universe was the driving force behind their conquests to begin with.
  • It's known that Diamonds can be poofed, though only Crystal Gem Pearl was witness and culprit to this as part of Pink Diamond's Faking the Dead plan. That said, it's not known what the psychological consequences of getting/seeing a fellow Diamond get poofed or even shattered would do, since the Pantheon has beings powerful enough to actually do this.
  • Have some difficulties with smaller spaces despite being shapeshifters. It's likely due to their pride to shift even smaller. This is another thing Steven is currently trying to resolve.
  • Their…steam condensed on their bodies^note since they don't actually perspire can bring some materials to life, and is part of what other Gems are made of. It's likely that Steven's spit and Rose/Pink's tears are a different form of the same substance. Combining the essence of all four Diamonds together cures gem corruption and can repair a shattered gem from their fragments.
  • Something involving people comparing Yellow Diamond to a giraffe because of her long neck, Blue to a Sith Lord with her hood up, and White to a light bulb when she glows.
  • Of course, given their past as galactic conquerors, there are a lot of folks who despise them, some who only show tolerance because of Steven, a few who wouldn't hesitate to harm him to get to them (such as Hero Killer Stain, who believes Steven is too naïve to believe that the Diamonds are worth redemption, but a lack of blood to taste would make fighting them... difficult), and those perfectly capable of engaging them personally.
    • Asura despises the Diamond Authority, but has the most animosity towards White Diamond. Her initial general demeanor towards her underlings (including her "sisters") reminds him too much of Chakravartin and the Seven Deities. He isn't empathetic towards the younger "sisters" either, since they were all too willing to snuff out organic life to just create more Gems, akin to the Gohma Vlitra creating more Gohma, and taking away humans for their Human Zoo reminding him of Deus' Karma Fortress being powered by human souls. Their willingness to better themselves for Steven's sake—as well as the fact that Steven himself got into Asura's path once—is the only thing keeping him from shattering them, and given what he's done to Chakravartin, there's no doubt that he can absolutely do so.
    • It's true that the GUAG Ministry Of Atonement has its share of folks who have done terrible things, even a Galactic Conqueror, but the Diamonds have it harder due to their greater success in their planetary conquests. As the only other Galactic Conqueror among the Ministry, Kerrigan has been assigned to help the Diamonds get acclimated.
  • The Aparoids were already enemies of the Crystal Gems due to its intent to assimilate Steven. It was natural that they would earn the ire of the Diamonds as well.
  • When it comes to Steven's dad Greg, and therefore the man who won Pink Diamond's heart, there are divisive opinions.
    • Blue Diamond still conceivably keeps a solid friendship, though it's strained after she learned about the circumstances that led to Steven's existence, due to it "killing" Pink Diamond for good, as well as just being grossed out with regards to the process of organic reproduction.
    • For White, it's basically a magnification of Crystal Gem Pearl's own resentment of Greg (before Pearl eventually moved on). After all, it was him who ultimately brought about the end of Pink's existence.
    • The above also applies for Yellow, but it's unknown to what extent.
  • It's not known if White also possesses this power (though it's extremely likely), but the Diamonds possess a Psychic Link with one another on some level, and can even ward off mental psychic attacks.
• Exclusive to Yellow Diamond:
  • Her lightning is known to not only one-hit poof gems, but keep them regenerating for days. In regards to mechanical entities she can't just overload, she would likely force a very prolonged shutdown.
  • Was the first of the Diamonds after Pink to get poofed. After regenerating at her temple with her fellow Diamonds and Steven watching, she explained that she had been in a GUAG skirmish against forces from the Galactic Empire when a certain Sith Lord decided to show up, and took his sweet time tormenting her with her own element (if it wasn't actually a case of him merely doing sustained damage) before she lost her Hard Light form. She's been told that it had been a severely demoralizing blow for her Gems, and it took another in the GUAG to rally them and bring her Gem back safely.

• Exclusive to Blue Diamond:
  • While strong in her own right by virtue of being a Diamond (moreso in the face of opposing Gems), it's apparent that she's more reliant on her Emotion Bomb powers, which do affect non-Gems far less than Gems, if at all, as Connie can attest to when Blue and Yellow attacked Earth during Garnet's wedding.
  • Some folks have teased her for not realizing the rebel Rose Quartz sounded just like Pink Diamond. Even if it can be excused as Pink changing her intonation dramatically, the real Rose Quartzes sound distinctly different from the Crystal Gems leader.
  • -Something about stoners.-
• Exclusive to White Diamond:
  • It's not known how White already knew Pink was alive all these millennia, and identifies Steven as her without being told. It's unclear if she knew Pink faked her shattering and was Rose Quartz all along from the start, figured it out along the way, or found out when Blue and Yellow did from somehow monitoring them. And there's the fact that she seemed to know what a mother and a child were, when no other Gem in Homeworld had any such concept for such relationships usually only found in organic beings like those on Earth. White is not answering any of these questions for the time being, only that she certainly has some level of clairvoyance or telepathy, but as her initial incorrect assumption of Pink proved, she was not omniscient.
  • In regards to her Luminiscent Blush of pink, it's not clear as to whether it's a mere imitation of the expression as the Crystal Gems have been seen doing, or if it really was an off-color imperfection of hers.
  • As the progenitor of all Gem-kind, it begs the question as to where White herself came from, and who/what were her precursors.
  • Crunch dislikes White Diamond specifically because of her possession ability and how she had no qualms about using it on (what he's pretty sure is) her own family. Even if she's since turned over a new leaf, it doesn't change the fact that she still did it.
  • Yes, her self-illusion of her being perfect has since been shattered, but having that rubbed in her face isn't helping matters, even if she has emotionally improved since then. Unfortunately for her, the Perfect Trumpet Thingy is more than willing to just appear in her head and do exactly that, getting past her psychic blocks with no effort. It drives her nuts to no end, as she can't seem to find the thing anywhere.
    • By extension, this also gained her an odd friend in Courage. He finds a giant powerful space goddess struggling with the concept of "not being perfect" that he had to deal with a while back as oddly comforting, while she's boggled and fascinated by this little organic thing that's scared out of his wits most of the time being completely fine with not being perfect, maybe even happy because of it. Courage being the one to approach her in the first place just intensified it. The poor dog doesn't know half of what he's getting into, especially since he's going to have to experience Spinel... Then again, when has he ever?
  • It's rumored that White harbors a significant Shadow that might be present in the TV World. However, due to the lower limit imposed (only Intermediate Deities or lower can acquire Personas, so White's out of luck there as she's a Greater Goddess), not to mention the size of the TV portal, Steven cannot ask the Investigation Team for an exception on White's behalf.
    • Those rumors turn out to be not quite true, as the leaked scene was actually of her letting Steven control her body.

TV Tropes Pantheon Group Members Database

Second draft for the Silencerz. Added allies, enemies, and rivals. Am currently working on their backstory. Are there any other top-secret, neutral organizations with heroic tendencies?

The Silencerz, Representatives of Stories With Unfinished Plot Points

• Theme: Silencerz Theme
• Demigods
• Symbol: The Silencerz logo
• Alignment: True Neutral, with many hints of Neutral Good
• Portfolio: Ultimately having a largely important plot point unresolved, Heavily implied to be a top-secret, government-run conspiracy, Their cars being capable of posing as any other vehicle of similar size, down to mimicking the driver, Both their cars and their drivers having cloaking devices, Being completely silent Until the ending of the fourth film , Having chrome uniforms and cars, Having purple in their uniforms and vehicles, and being the most technologically advanced faction ,Many details regarding them leaked by their creators online , Their vehicles using a highly advanced nanomachine composite, Having built-in EMP devices on their vehicles, Xtremely Kool Letterz, Intended to be the first human expedition to make contact with the Accelerons
• Domains: Racing, Plot Points, Buildup, Conspiracies
• Allies: XCOM, The MIB, The SCP Foundation, The Global Occult Coalition
• Enemies: The Racing Drones, Nitrous Oxide, Emperor Velo, The Fabrication Machine, SKYNET, The Combine, Sigma, Lumine, Ultron, Brainiac, The Master Control Program, The Decepticons
• Rivals: Dom Toretto, The West Coast Cabbies, Captain Falcon
• A mysterious, quite possibly government-run organization, the Silencerz, for lack of a better name, are a faction shrouded in mystery. All their members wear helmets and visors that conceal their identities, are completely silent outside of using special communications lines encrypted only to them, and have access to military-grade technology that is decades ahead of its time.
  • Said military-grade technology mainly comes in the form of special nanomachines, which compose the very vehicles they use. This special material allows their cars to disguise themselves as any other vehicle, including those used by their enemies and rivals, turn invisible with the push of a button, or even allow their cars transform into other vehicles composed of the same material.
• First appearing in the Metro Realm, they soon begin claiming Accelechargers for themselves while opposing every other team, all the while concealing themselves and their presence from the other racing teams as much as possible. Their cover is finally blown in the Pipeline Realm, where Dr. Tezla manages to undo the disguise of one of their members' cars, whose driver immediately transforms it into another vehicle in order to escape. From then on, they openly begin engaging in a Mêlée à Trois with not only the Teku and Metal Maniacs, but also against the Racing Drones. Interestingly, they only use lethal force on the Drones, preferring to use psychological warfare or espionage against their human opponents.
• During a failed attempt to take all the Accelechargers from the protagonists, the Silencerz ended up losing all of the ones in their possession to the Racing Drones when they stormed the Acceledrome that the Silencerz themselves were infiltrating. However, this gave them an opening. With the majority of the Drones occupying the Acceledrome, this allowed one of their drivers to infiltrate the Drone HQ and steal the Wheel of Power from their grasp.

, as much as I dislike that game, it's still the most iconic of its genre.

The Fight Continues!

Third (and hopefully final) draft, still accepts thumbs.

Fortnite Island, Holy Seat of Battle Royale Game Modes

• Description: An island with many different biomes, where 100-man battle royales are held.
• Symbol: The Battle Bus◊.
• Theme Song: Dance Moves.
• Alignment: Chaotic Good.
• Portfolio: Battle Royale Game, Added Alliterative Appeal, Expansion Pack World, Trash the Set, Wide-Open Sandbox.
• Domains: Adventure, Combat, Weaponry.
• Sacred to: The Nine Mercenaries, Damon Killian, Scarface, Mephiles, Thor, The various assorted Guest Fighters that have appeared on the Island.
• Unholy to: All Deadly Game participants.
• With all of the Dominions and the Pantheon Landmarks, there are many battle arenas in the Pantheon, but none that host 100-man Battle Royales, and Fortnite Island was brought in as the Dominion for Battle Royale Game.
• While Fortnite Island primarily serves as a training simulation, due to the fact that no-one dies in Fortnite, recreational use is also permitted.
• Many events have occurred in the Island’s history, most can be found here.
  • In the 3rd season of Fortnite, a shooting star appeared in the sky that later turn out to be several meteors, all of which hit the Island.
  • Think that was enough? In the next season, even bigger meteors hit the Island! Government facilities were built in the crash sites, with one of them hiding an alien cocoon.
  • Later that same season, the cocoon opened as an alien emerged, broadcasting to the entire Pantheon before setting off a rocket, presumably to get back home. (But not before leaving portals in time.)
  • Soon, various items came out of the portals, and after all cacti in the pantheon were destroyed, lighting came out of a portal and spawned a giant cube.
  • The giant cube soon began to move, leaving Nordic runes in its path before ending up in Loot Lake, assimilating itself with the water and turning it purple.
  • At the beginning of season 6, Loot lake became a Floating Continent, sapping energy from the runes and then moving on to the next.
  • Once the cube reached full power, it sank back into Loot Lake and unleashed a beam of light, sending Husks across the Island.
  • After five days of nonstop zombie attacks, the cube set off a giant explosion that reset the entire universe, with Loot Lake being replaced by Leaky Lake in this new universe.
  • In season 7, a giant iceberg hit the Island, covering a significant portion of it in snow as visitors set up outposts.
  • The iceberg then melted, revealing a castle underneath, releasing the Ice King (no, not that one) from his slumber, and after reaching his full power sent the entire Island into snow.
    • But at the same time, a man with Volcanic Veins was released from his icy tomb in the castle, causing a volcano to rise up, season 8 had begun...
  • Due to the change in landscape Pirates came to the Island in search of treasure, resulting in a Mêlée à Trois between the three factions.
  • One day, the Men In Black uncovered a vault underneath Loot Lake, and it opening caused the volcano to erupt and destroyed Retail Row and Tilted Towers while a man called Jonesy and a giant banana (which he then turned into a smoothie) fled to an bunker until they managed to get to The Future, where the destroyed areas were rebuilt as Neo-Tilted Towers and a Mega-Mall.
  • Thought we were done with the volcano? Because it awakened a Kaiju that rampaged across the Island until a Humongous Mecha was built to fight it, exposing the orb of power, which cracked and cracked until it finally broke, sending the Island back in time to the exact moment before season 4 began.
  • You know how everything tried to destroy Loot Lake? Well, they were sent by a group called The Seven, who sought to destroy the orb to break the Stable Time Loop, launching another rocket and making even more time portals before a black hole emerged and sucked in the entire Battle Royale program, it seemed that Fortnite was done with.
    • ...Until the mainframe was rebooted, merging our version of the island with another, resulting in a familiar, yet different version of the Island.
  • Soon, a group called E.G.O. arrived, setting up safehouses in search of a secret bunker, the alternate Island prepared for this and created Evil Knockoffs of the E.G.O. called the Alters, locked in a battle over the mysterious bunker.
• To absolutely no-one’s suprise, all Deadly Game participants loathe Fortnite and it’s contemporaries, seeing it as a glorification of their hardships and refuse to go near the simulations.
• As they are Ax-Crazy lunatics that hail from a Denser and Wackier shooter much like Fortnite, The Nine Mercenaries have the time of their lives on the Island, as it lets the mercs shoot the crap out of people while not actually being any danger to the Pantheon.
  • Similarly, The Classic Team enjoys combat on the island, though they only do it to kill time between missions rather than to just kill people like the Modern Team does.
• Damon Killian has been investigating the Island is a potential site for his Revival of The Running Man, which the vast majority of deities agree should be the case, as long as all other sites also have Non-Lethal K.O. mechanics (something Damon does not approve of).
  • Similarly, Scarface has considered using the Island as a hunting ground, as he has joined up with Killian due to sharing a common enemy and his overall Blood Knight demeanor.
• Kilian Experience made a video on Fortnite involving building a staircase to the skies to give the number one spot to someone who rightfully deserved it. In actuality, it turned out to be a Very Special Episode about the dangers of drugs and empathy.
  Kilian: Having empathy for other players? What a loser! So always try your best in a videogame or you will be sucking dick for heroin!
• the gods were suprised to learn that Mephiles and Thor of all people are fans of the simulations, especially since Thanos was featured quite prominently in Fortnite.
  • Another Tyrannical Figure, Emperor Palpatine broadcasted his message to the galaxy through the simulation, this only alerted the Pantheon to the Emperor’s location and lead the gods to wonder why one of the most infamous villains of all time used a training simulation as a means of drawing attention to himself.

nightelf suggested that Kio Asuna be made to hold Reckless Pacifist and Suicidal Pacifist because he actually goes out of his way to block attacks from his own comrades to actively save enemy pilots. The "reckless" part is actually recognized in-universe by Kio's commanding officer, who sternly berates the kid for his actions, citing that it actually puts his allies in MORE danger. Unfortunately, the show has entered into even more Protagonist-Centered Morality than with Kira Yamato, so Kio ignores it and remains convinced of himself.

Should he keep both or only one, in which case I now think Reckless Pacifist is more fitting.

Just the first one because both feel kind of samey. Reckless Pacifist i mean.

@Hamana I bet Esdeath has kind of a similar origin, with the whole home village being slaughtered and being a villainess in a high position. But on the other hand Esdeath is barely affected by the loss of her home and her sadism would make some of the sith look tame by comparison

Barry is at 2 . I just want to get him done and move on

• Heralds: His wife Kathy, his youngest daughter Polly and his adoptive daughter Natalia.
• Allies:
  • From the Resident Evil Universe: Moira Burton (his daughter), Jill Valentine, Chris Redfield, Rebecca Chambers, Claire Redfield, Leon S. Kennedy, Sherry Birkin and Jake Muller, Ethan and Mia Winters, Joe Baker
  • Other Allies: AMS Agents, Frank West, Guile, Bryan Mills, Contender and Thunder, Ryo Saeba

• Pities: The Bakers
• Barry Burton was one the members of the Special Tactics and Rescue Service and part of the Alpha Team that was sent to investigate the mysterious cannibalistic murders in Arklay Mountains. Barry was the weapon supplier of the team and one of the few who survived the whole ordeal in the Spencer mansion alongside fellow Alpha team members Jill Valentine and Chris Redfield and Bravo Team's rookie Rebecca Chambers. Ubenknowns to most of his teammates at the time, he was threatened by Captain Wesker to erase all the evidence in the Spencer Mansion that linked to him and act as his right hand man, otherwise he would harm his family. While Barry had to comply, he later regained his senses and turned on Wesker at the last second. Since then he has been deeply ashamed of his actions and decided to atone by helping form the BSSA and combat bioweapons.
• Barry was happy to finally join his comrades and as the last of the Spencer Mansion survivors he felt he had big shoes to fill. For starters, he was recommended by Jill herself after feeling that she needed to have one of the comrades that always watched her back and the one that nicknamed her Master of Unlocking after all. Given Barry's tendency to carry huge revolvers that pack quite the punch. In Jill's own words, "He has THIS!".
• Naturally the Pantheon is home to many dangerous individuals and monsters, many of which were from Barry's own universe. For starters, both Albert and Alex Wesker were one of the first that Barry had unfortunately crossed paths with and he still holds a grudge to both, Albert for forcing him to do his dirty work while with Alex he hates her for almost killing his daughter Moira and his adoptive daughter Natalia Korda. Not to mention the several former Umbrella operatives and B.O.W.s roaming around the Pantheon but Barry is prepated to take them down.
  • He was also informed by Chris about the incident in the Baker State and found the fate of that family to be rather tragic considering how protective he is of his own family. So it was pretty easy for Barry to despise Eveline for what she did, even if she is in many ways very similar to Natalia. However, he has no sympathy for Lucas Baker since unlike his parents he is not under Eveline's influence at all.
• Barry is a proud father and a family man, threatening or harming his family being a quick way to get in his bad side and as Jill can attest to, he is not someone you want to mess with. But his history with his eldest daughter Moira is a bit complicated ever since she accidentally shot her sister Polly, both Barry and Moira drifted apart but reconciled when Barry had to save her from Alex Wesker. He gets along with similar deities who would do everything for their family, with special mention going to Guile and Bryan Mills, who also have ties to the force like Barry does.
• Wields a powerful 44 Magnum called the Colt Anaconda and it packs quite a punch, being able to down beasts like the Hunters or even the Tyrant in one shot (although it has a chance to whiff, like that one zombie Barry had to waste 3 shots to kill. He would rather not talk about it). It was only natural that other revolver enthusiasts would be interested in Barry's Weapon Of Choice and he ended up befriending Ryo Saeba, an unlikely one considering how the two are nothing alike outside of being quite the jokers. He is also impressed by the T-Dolls Contender and Thunder for being named after their respective weapon, ones that pack even more punch than Barry's Magnum to boot. He likes to mentor them on the effectiveness of revolvers, especially against living things and wonders if there is another T-Doll in their unit named after the Colt Anaconda.
• Him and Frank West are good pals but the reason Frank even bothered to approach Barry was to ask if he owned the Jill Sandwich chain. Barry was left confused that someone would even name a restaurant after one of his silly jokes but he just roll with it and clarified he had no idea such chain existed.
• Good friends with the AMS agents as they too are not only experience with zombie outbreaks but they even share same hilarious charm with Barry. From them he learned of the Magician, a powerful creation from their universe far more dangerous than any Tyrant you could think of and Barry made his mission to destroy the creature before he gets out of control.
• Even if Barry is a certified Gun Nut, improper use of guns do tend to get on his nerves like that one time Hol Horse challenged to a duel and even dare to cheat using his stand. Somehow Barry ended up defeating him with not much effort because he is a horrible shot either way and then got him sent to the Pantheonic jail for a while. Since then the two have been bitter enemies.
• Barry is definitely a bit miffed by Magnificent Bastards given how he was forced into betraying his S.T.A.R.S. teammates by Wesker and it just so happen that another Gun Nut who uses revolvers, the amptly named Revolver Ocelot, is one of them. Although not as bad as his former boss, that doesn't mean he is by any means a good person and Barry has come to distrust him.
• Experienced enough to pilot helicopters and often assist the GUAG with rescue missions whenever he can. He also prone to saving people in the nick of time but those who are saved by him insist on not making sandwich jokes.

Old Yeller and Travis Coates, Representation of Reprehensible Actions For The Greater Good

• Quasideities
• Symbol: Old Yeller's face
• Theme Music: Old Yeller Theme Song
• Alignment: Neutral Good
• Portfolios: A Classic Tale of a Boy and his Dog, ultimately the victims of Young Adult Tragedy Books with a Downer Ending
  • Old Yeller: Heroic Dog, Happily Adopted, ultimately took a Face–Monster Turn
  • Travis: Tragic Coming of Age Story with a Shoot the Dog ending
• Domains: Good, Community, Animal, Death
• Allies: Dorothy Gale, Ken Amada, Kiba and Akamaru, Jonathan Joestar, Jack Bauer, Malcolm Reynolds, Lilo and Stitch, Ash Ketchum
• Annoyed by: Garfield
• Observed by: John Wick
• Pitied by: The subhouse of Sadness, especially Korra, George and Lennie, Simba, Bruce Wayne/Batman
• Conflicting Opinion: The House of Heroes
• This is a tragic tale of a boy and his dog that ended up becoming one of the saddest endings in the Multiverse. What was merely a stray meeting an adolescent became one of the greatest friendships between a human and his Canine Companion. Sadly, a bout with rabies forced Travis to make the difficult decision of shooting his companion to save his family. Few in the Pantheon do not know of the tale, yet there has been much debate over how to handle the ascension. Two camps emerged: one who wanted Old Yeller to stay dead and the other group wanted both owner and pet to be brought up. It was the House of Sadness that decided to side with the later, citing various other characters who have previously died yet have ascended. Thus, the boy and his dog was reunited in the Pantheon. Needless to say, much tears were shed from Travis.
  • Travis wasn't the only one who had to perform such a tough decision. George Milton was there to comfort the boy shortly after the ascension. He also helped the boy on how to cope with the return of the very thing he had to kill. Meanwhile, Lennie loves to hang out with Old Yeller. After the meet, George suggests to continue any adventures they may have done together. It turns out the Pantheon many places to explore. The two can often be seen having the time of their lives in the Houses of Nature and Beasts.
  • Besides the obvious tragic fate of Old Yeller, Travis also lost his father early in life and probably would have lost his brother if not for Old Yeller. Long story short, his entire life has been a Trauma Conga Line. As such, he's a sympathetic figure in the subhouse of Sadness. Yet the Avatar Korra believes that that life of his was what helped him become a man. Still, she made herself available for him in rough times.
• His story was met with great pain from various dog owning dieties in the Pantheon. None of them hope to be put in such a situation and were all supportive of Travis upon his ascension:
  • Dorothy attributed much of her success in Oz to her dog Toto. Both kids were at similar age during their adventures and sometimes continue to meet up with their respective dogs.
  • Ken is even younger than Travis yet he seemed to take the ascension more maturely than most. His own dog Koromaru has helped him cope with the death of his own mother at an early age. Travis wants Ken to check his own mind in case it is in need of a checkup.
  • Kiba offered to teach Travis in the ways of the Inuzuka clan. The farm boy simply declined, preferring to rely on his weapon for protection.
  • There is one more diety to discuss. Though he has yet to make his presence known to the boy, he suspects that the man has been keeping watch. Whenever it seems like he has run into danger from thieves, they seem to back off or get hit with a stray bullet. Travis believes that John Wick has been observing him from a distance. While John Wick has his misgivings with the shooting, he understood that the kid had no other choice on the matter. Many believe that John Wick has made it known to the criminal world that the boy is off limits, lest they want to deal with him as well. That threat alone would be enough for most people in the House of Crime not to rob him.
• Travis was visited by the billionaire Bruce Wayne, who handed him a cash donation. He later conversed with the boy, talking about how he lost both of his parents to a robber. He told Travis to send his mother Bruce's regards before leaving. He was grateful for the money, but figured he was used to this since he housed orphans such as Richard Grayson and Jason Todd.
  • Despite sympathy for the boy among the superhero community, his placement has been highly contended when it comes to killing human lives. One of the biggest examples was when Wonder Woman snapped the neck of Maxwell Lord to break Superman out of his mind-controlled rampage. It was a hotly debated subject that nearly tore the DC Pantheon in two. Travis' ascension brought up old wounds. Superman and Wonder Woman both came to his temple to discuss the subject. While the two still disagree on the decision, they decided not to let that force them to come to blows.
• The first Jojo made sure to honor one of the few animals on his list of those who went through heroic deaths. He handed a medal to Old Yeller for saving Travis from various animals in its mortal life.
• While hunting in the House of Beasts, the two were confronted by a large cat with a red mane. Travis pointed his gun at the creature, but Old Yeller stepped forward instead. After a brief stare, the dog allowed the lion to walk up to Travis. To the boy's surprise, the lion nudged against him in support instead. Turns out the lion was Simba, who understood what it was like to lose a father.
• Was visited by Ash Ketchum who had one question in mind; how long did it take for the two of them to get along? He asked this because his relation with his Pikachu was extremely fraught at first. Turns out Travis had a similar experience. The dog had a habit of stealing meat from their house. He even thought Old Yeller was a pest until the dog saved his little brother. Ash was relieved that even those two had issues getting along at first.
• As a federal agent, Jack Bauer has come across such circumstances multiple times over his career. He was surprised that such a title would be handed to such a young man, but he was impressed with how Travis handled the situation and the aftermath. As such, Jack sees Travis as worthy of the title.
• Unlike other protagonists in the Pantheon, Malcolm has no qualms about blasting foes for the safety of his crew. Often times, it happens because Malcolm has simply run out of patients and thought offing the problem would be an easier solution. Malcolm has misgivings with handing the title to a boy who had suffered enough as it is but is glad Travis at least gets to see his dog again.
• Stitch once pretended to be a pet for Lilo as a cover for escaping his captures yet the two managed to be True Companions. The two paid the boy a visit and had fun afterwards. Stitch did scare Old Yeller at first, but the dog recognized that Stitch meant no harm in the end.
• Garfield is one of the few deities in the Pantheon who finished the story without a single tear shed. In fact, he claimed that getting rid of that 'mangy dog' made it a happy ending. Many in the Pantheon was shocked by the claim, though it isn't that surprising given his disdain towards dogs. Needless to say, Old Yeller's displeasure of Garfield is mutual.

William Wallace, God of Brave Scots

• Demigod
• Symbol: His claymore
• Theme Music: Braveheart Theme
• Alignment: Chaotic Good
• Portfolio: Crusading Widower who received a Historical Hero Upgrade, Genius Bruiser, gave a Rousing Speech, ultimately Defiant to the End by Maintaining his Independence
• Domains: Good, War, Rage, Freedom
• Allies: Groundskeeper Willie, The Joestar family, Connor and Duncan MacLeod, Merida, Bill and Ted, The Demoman
• Enemies: The Kurgan
• Opposes: Queen Elizabeth I, Henry the Eighth
• Odd Friendship: Nightwolf
• Special Relationship" The Rock of Ages
• It was rather easy to pinpoint when William Wallace first appeared in the Pantheon. A loud voice shouting "FREEEEEEDOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!" could be heard throughout the House of Culture. That day was remembered well by the millions of Scottish followers of the Pantheon. It was the day that their most famous rebel fighter had ascended. It was William who helped bring about the reputation of Scots as brave, hardy souls who are willing to fight for their cause.
  • Spurred on by the death of his wife Murron, he helped the Scots fend off the English for many years. In the end, he met his demise and was hung drawn and quartered for his troubles, but not without inspiring others to keep fighting for many more years to come. Nowadays, he is by far the most famous Scot in the past.
  • This version of the real life warrior was different in the sense that he played a far greater importance than his real life counterpart did. There were various other heroes who played a part in the Wars of Scottish Independence who were either incorporated int his character or did not appear at all. In response, William Wallace paid their respects by etching their names on the outer walls of his temple. Inside, one can find information of various Scottish freedom fighters.
• Previously the most prominent Scot in the Pantheon, Willie was elated that his namesake had finally arrived at the Pantheon. He pretty much confirmed that he was named after the Folk Hero. Their followers peacefully exchanged clergy and even worked together in harmony, a rarity for the usually violent Scotsmen.
• The Joestar family comes from a long line of Scotsmen. While they don't strive to show off their heritage, they still cheered when Wallace managed to ascend.
• Many wonder if the film Braveheart was influenced by another highlander based film that appeared a decade earlier. Connor and Duncan Macleod were born centuries after the legend of William Wallace, and were glad to see their hero in the flesh. Of course the two also joked about how there were other heroes during those wars. Regardless, both were eager ally with him.
  • There was one more Immortal to visit him. The Kurgan came by with one goal in mind: to bring the head of William Wallace to his rivals. The two clashed with their swords for the following fight. Wallace was sadly outclassed in terms of strength and was overwhelmed. Thankfully, Joseph Joestar was nearby and drove the Russian off. Expecting a rematch, Wallace unearth defenses to give him more of an advantage the next time he faces the Immortal.
• Travis McGroot the Demoman on the other hand has completely bought on the legend of William Wallace. He even gets into fights with those who don't believe he can kill a hundred men single-handedly and shoot fire from his eyes. Wallace allows Travis to continue his belief to boost his morale.
  • The only English monarchs in the Pantheon ruled long after his death, but William Wallace declared the two obstacles in the name of Scottish liberation. The monarchs see him now as nothing more than a nuisance now that unification was all but assured.
• One consolation is the fact that there is a Scottish princess in the Pantheon as well. He has sworn loyalty to the archer Merida in the hopes that she may become a new legend in Scottish lore. He was impressed with the way she asserted herself as a warrior as well as a princess and has pledged to help hone her swordsmanship.
• Just because he focuses on the freedom of Scotland doesn't mean he's blind of the oppression of other people. He went over to the domain of Nightwolf, resident Magical Native American, and the two likened each other as brothers. William hopes that Nightwolf's people may gain the amount of appropriate he wishes his people may have.
• His depiction in the film has been divisive for quite a few people in the Pantheon. Yet he is not sure of that of the Rock of Ages. On the one hand, he was annoyed that his version was vanquished by the historical version of William Wallace. On the other hand, he was intrigued that the later performed feats many believed to be mere myth. That deity has been forgiven for now.
• His presence was at his greatest in 2014, when Scotland was given the option to vote for its independence. His name was used as a rallying cry for those hoping to be free of the UK. It was a contentious campaign in the Pantheon with both sides turning to deities for help. Ultimately, Scotland decided to maintain that partnership. William Wallace wishes he was in the Pantheon at that time, but is now ready to represent the Scottish people if such an opportunity arrives again.
• When Bill and Ted walked down on a street next to him, Willam's eyes widened. He confronted the two and stated he recongized them. It took the rockers a few seconds, but they eventually agreed with him. He was initially one of the people they wanted to take to the presence, but he scared them off. It was common for such people to be scared of time travelers in their first appearance. Now that he's used to it, William wanted the two to create music for Scottish liberation. Bill & Ted agreed and asked him to get back to them once they finished.

Just added a few on both Esdeath and Galen. I'm not going to recap her as it was already posted last page. Ventress again.

Asajj Ventress, Divine Saint of Intimidating Female Voices (Ventress, Little One, Mistress, The Bald Banshee, Supreme Leader)

• Intermediate Goddess
• Symbol: A split-saber
• Theme Song: Ventress the Nightsister, The New Ventress
• Alignment: Chaotic Neutral (formerly Lawful Evil under Count Dooku)
• Portfolio: The villainess who joined the Sith under Count Dooku, known not to fight fair at all, a dangerous woman (even after leaving the Sith), a fervent member of the Nightsisters, has a grudge against Dooku, the last living Nightsister after Grevious' massacre and defected from the Sith altogether, developed much more in character after growing up as a slave and lost her only "family", shows some respect against her enemies under certain circumstances, expert in lightsaber combat even without the Force, dies as a neutral anti-hero
• Domains: The Force, Dark Ladies, Hatred, Bounty Hunters, Anti-Heroes
• Heralds: Mother Talzin and the Nightsisters/Witches of Dathomir, Ky Narec (her Jedi Master), Quinlan Vos (brief apprentice and later lover)
• Allies: Very few but some notable mentions are Boba Fett
• Teeth-Clenched Teamwork with: Ahsoka Tano, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Cal Kestis, Galen Marek and all other Jedi
• Rivals with: Esdeath, Katarina du Corteau, Shego, The Baroness, Selvaria Bles
• Additional Relationships with: Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader
• Enemies: The Sith Empire but most especially Count Dooku, Darth Maul, General Grievous
• The Sith have no shortages when it comes to masters and members, thanks to the lure of power and hatred that fuels the Dark Side. It makes for many stories from the rumored past of the Legends, battles from the Clone Wars and the fall and rise of the Jedi. This Sith assassin was notorious for her ruthlessness that originated from her past as a child slave and loss of her Jedi master Ky Narec. Succumbing to the Dark Side, her natural affinity with the Force led her to be discovered by Count Dooku and recruited to his cause. However, her growing power came at a cost: her increased strength and aggressiveness made her a problem to the Sith and was nearly disposed of by Count Dooku on Palpatine's orders. At the same time, she discovered a cult of Nightsisters (her species) and began adopting their lifestyle, only for them to be destroyed in a slaughter by General Grievous. That moment turned her away from the Sith to find a new purpose in life, ultimately killing her in the end whilst getting her revenge. That person you may ask? That is Asajj Ventress, one of the most infamous figures of the Clone Wars era.
• Her ascension was a thought out plan by Palpatine after his final defeat to reconsolidate his forces while the Empire was still up and running in the Pantheon with his own members, especially Count Dooku. Ventress was among the Emperor's personal picks, one Dooku was opposed to knowing his history with her but under Palpatine's orders, decided to get her ascended anyway. What was supposed to be an easy extraction turned into a bloodbath as Ventress escaped soldiers in her intent to kill Dooku, though she was overpowered by the Emperor before she could do so. Having tired of life as a dark side acolyte, she found a new haven in the darker corners of the Pantheon. The very next day, clone trooper scouts revealed she set up shop after consulting with some of the Pantheon's higher ups, granting her permanent residence in the Pantheon, all without the Sith's assistance. Palpatine's disappointment and anger at the failure could not have clearer, compounded by Dooku's replacement to Anakin Skywalker, who would later become Darth Vader.
  • While you may be wondering that her looks, skills and color scheme, she may be still partly Sith, but that is partly false. She was a Sith that was taught the way of being powered by hatred, but a few betrayals here and there as well as Count Dooku's persistence to get rid of her, led to her defecting and becoming neutral, even so much as to side with the Jedi when the opportunity arises to kill the one who nearly killed her during the days as a Sith member, as well as passing profession into a bounty hunter. For those wondering what side she is now, it is a doozy but she will remain neutral, albeit somewhat of a jerk to others.
• Now that her ascension went underway, the Sith has unexpectedly created another enemy in the midst, though that is what you get when you attempt on killing someone out of power and suspicion. Even with her opposition to the Sith, the Jedi have not considered her into their ranks, and she doesn't take it offense on that because on her realization, she has no intention of joining the Jedi as she was a student of their order until her master was killed, so the feelings are mutual when she has no consideration to rejoin them, or some would think otherwise.
• The first sight of her arrival was her target of revenge: Count Dooku. Yes Palpatine's formerly right hand man, responsible for nearly terminating her and as well as the mastermind for wiping out the Nightsisters was the cause for all her misfortune and forcing her to fend for herself in the galaxy, without no help whatsoever. Even as a bounty hunter and teaching her lover Quinlan Vos the ways of lightsaber combat, it was not enough to hide the wounds Dooku has placed upon her. She also has not forgotten that he finally killed her with Force Lightning, at the sight of Vos no less. Since then, she has been plotting his next move and has even allied with the Jedi, albeit with conflict, in an attempt to satiate her revenge, some even commenting on her ruthlessness to either have not changed or have gotten worse.
  • This especially goes for two specific Jedi who she has fought against in the very past, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Ahsoka Tano, with the former especially the one Ventress had a rough history with and Ahsoka being possibly the counter-opposite to her. The only reason why she hasn't cut their heads in half is because of her intentions to kill Dooku at any price which the two have rather agreed unwillingly to side with. Even hearing that Anakin cut his head off, she still wants his head under her platter, especially when Anakin became Palpatine's next right hand man.
• Business-wise, she is not done yet especially against General Grievous, as his slaughter of the Nightsisters still has him under his sights. With the slow rise of the Confederacy however, she can only sneak up on him or risk being shot at by multiple droids. If a bounty does arrive on Grievous, chances are she'll be the first to take the opportunity among others.
  • Much information later from the House of Knowledge, there might be some clues that history between Ventress and Grievous are albeit closer. She was there alongside Dooku observing if the General was fit to lead his army and became an obstacle to prove his worth, with him wiping Ventress off the floor which resulted to her slowly going insane and as well as adding him to her scheme of posterior revenge. The outcome of Dathomir also differed with her defeating Grievous with ease, that was until he cheated and ordered the droids to start killing anyway.
• The other Jedi members, in particular Mace Windu, have also denied any idea of reinstating her to the Jedi Order, seeing that she is already deeply filled with hatred to be even under consideration. She doesn't mind this because after hearing Ahsoka being abandoned by the Jedi Order, she stated that the Jedi are no different from the Sith at all. It was this idea that led her to become a bounty hunter instead.
  • As for bounty hunters, hearing that Boba Fett arrived way before her annoyed her as he still proves he is the better hunter than her. Outside of that, the two are often found in bars or hideouts while waiting for the next bounty, where they will race to see who gets their target first.
• When analyzing her power, some may have seen as to why Palpatine ordered Dooku to kill her as soon as possible. Her affinity of the force is so strong that is starts manifesting to other forms, hence her growth of power. Some even were scared seeing her feats such as defeating Plo Koon while half-armed, being able to fight toe-to-toe with Anakin in a starfighter battle, being a nightmare to many Jedi in her early missions, and eliminating the remnants of Darth Plagueis' rumored Echani Sun Guard. Not to mention her added Nightsister powers such as reanimating the dead making her one of the most terrifying figures in the Clone Wars era.
  • Her Force powers is what made her a comparison to Galen Marek, who just like her grew up under the teachings of the Sith Empire was one of the most adept Force users to ever grace the galaxy as well as defect the Sith after a few switch of events surrounding their lives. However, Galen might be much more powerful than her, thanks to his overreaching power from the Force, at the same time making him more unstable emotion-wise.
• It seems that the Pantheon has no shortage when it comes to women with dangerous fighting feats, often lumping her into the same category. When she met the similar girls, Shego, Katarina and Selvaria, her comments on all of them were sloppy on their fights, only for her visitation to be shortened with Shego's punches, Katarina's blades and Selvaria's army-wiping power. Her response? Cutting their bodies in half by her lightsaber and force-choking all of them at the same time.
  • That all changed with Esdeath, who managed to be able equalize her in raw power and skill, as the Mahapadma froze her but was nearly saved thanks to her Force manipulation. Then it became a war between witch-zombies and ice warriors until Ventress was heavily injured. In an act of retreat, she teleported herself out of her presence, signifying a defeat for the Nightsister. With the battle over, Esdeath took it upon herself to see who Ventress was, and after seeing the similarities between the loss of her clan, and her high rank within the Sith, saw her as a worthy addition to her side, even though her sadism is often rivaled by Ventress' own ruthlessness.
  Ventress: Do you think you'll still be able to beat me up even after I've separated your bodies in half?
• Hearing the adventures of Cal Kestis brought her attention, not on the Jedi himself, but on one of his crew members of the Mantis, notably Nightsister Merris. Seeing that she is one of the last few surviving Nightsisters following Grievous' genocide, she has been visiting her on the Mantis, giving only weirded sights by the rest of the members who have been worried that a Sith entered their premises. She has no intention of harming either, but she has warned Cal that the moment she dies, she will have his head under her lightsaber's blades.
  • Then news of her name also connected her dots to her fellow Nightbrother Darth Maul, as much like her, joined the Sith and defected for revengeful reasons. The two have grown sympathies for each other as the last remaining Dathomirians, but did not last seeing what she and the Nightsisters did to his brother, Savage Opress, leading back to his rage and became neck on neck against each other, demanding her surrender for the torment she inflicted on his brother. Since then, Ventress has not apologized for her torment on Opress, and Maul will not forget what she has done to one of his own brothers.
• There are different reports on what was Ventress' fate because there are two differing sides: one stated that she died on Dooku's Force Lightning while saving Quinlan Vos. On the other hand, she faked her death and disappeared alongside the galactic scene entirely, with hints that with her unresolved fate, she may have not stuck around as bounty hunter. She refused to comment on both sides about her conclusion but with some of her scars from Force Lightning, the former may be more plausible than the latter.
• "Now you fall. As all Jedi must."

And here is Kreia. Allow me to describe her: one of the most obscure characters in the entirety of Legends canon, and perhaps the most powerful. A Jedi master who's actually Darth Traya that remains neutral and a master of the Force as well as intentionally destroying it as her endgame.

Find what you were looking for among the dead?
Kreia, The Survivor Who Grew Understanding Through Suffering (Darth Traya, The Lord of Betrayal, Lady of Betrayal, Dark Lady of the Sith)

• Greater Goddess
• Symbol: 3 purple lightsabers surrounding her by the Force
• Theme Song: Kreia, Darth Traya and The Final Battle for her true identity
• Alignment: Extremely varied. Due to her connections to both Jedi and Sith, sits variably in True Neutral
• Portfolio:
  • As Kreia: An unknown figure even in her pasts, a master of both Jedi and Sith, exiled and kicked out for her heretical teachings, sees through the Force rather than using her own eyes, has a... very dark grey choice of lessons, skilled at manipulation at its extreme, mostly untrustworthy, expert in ways of the Force, known to mask herself, notorious for bringing her students and others into her side, Nietzschean in her thoughts evidenced by her pointing out the flaws of her universe, ruthless towards anyone but has good intentions or so otherwise thought
  • As Darth Traya: Negation of both Jedi and Sith ideals, knows about the Sith from the very beginning and mindwipes anyone who uncovers it, proves that destroying the Force is beneficial in the long run, has interconnections with Darth Malak and even Revan, Traya is be'traya'l, despises the idelogies of both all-loving Jedi and cruelly-evil Sith, hates the Force in its entirety yet relies on it for her plans
• Domains: Mysterious Figures, Neutral Sides, Machiavellism, The Force, Extremism
• Herald: Darth Sion (Sith apprentice)
• Allies: None, although she considers The Exile to be her only companion, others do not faze her in the slightest.
• Additional Relationships with: Revan
• Enemies:
  • From the Star Wars universe: Pretty much everyone counts but especially Darth Nihilus, all members of the Jedi from Luke Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda, Ahsoka Tano, Qui-Gon Jinn, Mace Windu, Galen Marek, Cal Kestis, to even the Sith from Anakin Skywalker, Emperor Palpatine, Count Dooku, Darth Maul, Darth Plagueis, Kylo Ren and Darth Bane and Darth Zannah
  • Others:
• In a galaxy far far away, one of the most unknown entities to ever manifest is the Force. A mysterious piece of the galaxy, only used by the all-loving Jedi and the ever-hateful Sith, changes tides by the wielder's ability to control it in their grasp. Yet within the hidden depths of the galaxy, some have wondered its true purpose, studying it for ages, and some succumbing to its temptations. One in particular has seen it as a malevolent god's answer of deception to anyone willing to possess its unknowable strength and has spend years observing it's effects. Such study would be heretical and thus the person continued the studies through unknown means, even sacrificing their identity and shrouding themselves in mystery. Perhaps this was the case of this enigmatic teacher, the old lady Kreia, who knew much of the force in its deepest roots. One may ask if whether she abides to the side of the Jedi but soon enough one can see that she is in truth Darth Traya, an extremist who believed that the Force was an anomaly and wanted to destroy it, alongside the Sith Triumvirate, a formation she formed herself until she was kicked out for her extreme ideals, prompting her to plot against the entire galaxy in both her perfect ideas and scornful revenge.
  • The Pantheon was once at its infancy and some Force masters were sent to teach the deities the way of the Force, where she would act as a counter-balance to the good and evil sides. However, as time moved on, her influence waned and thus her presence vanished. No one could have understood where she had disappeared into and as time passed, so too did her teachings. It wasn't till one day when the Exile's senses, then the rest of the Force users felt the same sensation of an inexplicable feeling, one that was beyond the Sith's cruelty and the Jedi's heroism. Revan made a hunch that one mysterious figure would arrive and no one believe him, except for Yoda, who also felt the same feeling. And by their guesses, one woman was found in front of the Exile, replying with a message:
  ???:"I am Kreia, and I am your rescuer — as you are mine."
• Her presence sparked numerous debates once again on the House of Knowledge with some attempting to identify her true motives, name and all other feats as she has been a mysterious figure for so long that no one really knows who she is or what her motives are. Only The Exile remembers her presence but others are completely dumbfounded, with only few such as Yoda, Revan and Obi-Wan having flashbacks of a mysterious lady akin to her appearance. There is no denying that the rest of the Jedi and Sith were at full alert when Kreia's presence was revealed once more.
• History between her and the Exile varies. For one, while Kreia is a Jedi Master, albeit a shoddy one at that, it is true she opposes the Sith, she just has dark teachings that many would lump her into the same category as a Sith member. The Exile has contacted her many times and she considers him to be her actual student that she cares about. She has assured that said statement about being a Sith is entirely false which is partly true if you slowly see the cracks of her true identity...
  • Those who venture further into her ideals and truth reveals that she is not truly Jedi, but a former Sith going by the moniker of Darth Traya, who formed the Sith Triumvirate, a loose formation of Revan's empire that nearly wiped the Jedi Order. Their accomplished feats link not only to her, but to her former fellow Sith member, Darth Nihilus, and Darth Sion, the three being the pillars of the Triumvirate. But as the Lord of Betrayal, she would seen leave the Triumvirate, not on her accord but on the duo for her ideals. That being the destruction of the Force, her true endgame. The two vehemently opposed her that they kicked her out and as a mark for her revenge, has been plotting not only on the Force, but on both Jedi and Sith.
• Information on Kreia is completely sparse. Almost no amount of documents or even clues are there to support her character, making her one of the most mysterious deities, perhaps even rivaling the Council of Shadows. Combined with her ability to cloak herself through the Force and manipulate her alignment, makes it ridiculously hard to pinpoint who she really is and can only be thought off through theories, with the closest one being that she is Arren Kae, a soldier from the Mandalorian Wars, and even then her mannerisms, choices and her hidden past completely invalidate any chance of the two being the same.
• For a teacher who knows the way of the Force more than anyone, even rivaling Obi-Wan Kenobi, she has a rather negative perception on the Force, as her experience with using it and her observations of its effects towards other individuals have made it clear for her that it is dangerous, even though she is highly dependent on it. This dependency of it also lead to her true goals, to get rid of the Force in a showcase that the galaxy does not need the Force in order to live, a goal that even the Sith have considered to be extreme.
  • Her past may reveal some connection to Revan being that she is one of his former masters, and her extreme loyalty towards him as a Sith member, which is weird for a Jedi teacher to vocally support Revan as a Sith until you see that her being Darth Traya may have influenced Revan to become a part of the Empire. When she did meet up with her former apprentice, she spoke about how his changes were disappointing on her end, as Revan's intentions are to balance both light and dark in harmony, she intends on destroying the Force in its entirety.
• A mortal was able to slowly crack Kreia's code and philosophy and was able to publish an examination of her ideals, picking it apart one by one. To see that a mortal managed to find her true intentions has for one... brought a smile into her face.
• "There is no truth in the Force. But there is truth in you, Exile. And that is why I chose you."

I swear Loid, you can't draw worth shit!

Is it me, or have we been seeing a lot of Star Wars Gods? Sincerity Mode: there's nothing wrong with that in my honest opinion. Familiarity with a franchise makes working on a profile easier for the troper.

Everyone look at my sandbox

@Patrick: ...

...

I warned you. But I'll give you one last chance for William. Spell the Demoman's name correctly in the lore part, and I'll give you a .

Heres a freebie.

Copy-paste that, place it accordingly, and my is yours.

TV Tropes Pantheon Group Members Database

all the reworks and the recommendations have been bursting out into the open after the series’ anniversary hit. Just wait it out and then we can really put a stop to Star Wars since its a franchise with what tons of people have to say about

Pantheon server for all who click here. Freaking lost $410 and I am hunting down for a nuke to reign down.

Okay, so it's been months since I lasted worked in the Pantheon, and I thought about retiring at Pantheon at one point since I didn't know if I could continue this. But, you probably guessed that I didn't retire and I'm back for an encore. Since Chucky had already been fulfilled (better than I would have done). I thought I'd try one of my first choices again: The sole The Powerpuff Girls villain to be approved for a Complete Monster.

Richard "Dick" Hardly, God of Greedy Money Seekers (Professor Dick, Dick Hardly, Old Dick, Master of Evil)

Symbol: One of his Xtreme girls

Alignment: Chaotic Evil

Portfolio: A Dick in Name, Hate Sink, Shoddy Knockoff Product, Being one of Utonium's college mates, Starting off as a regular jerk who became a callous boss, pretending to support the girls in fighting crime, only to have strive making money off of people, Being the show's darkest and least comical villain despite only making one appearance, Being a bigger threat to titular girls than any of the actual monsters on the show, Turning into a literal monster during the third act.

Domains: Keen intellect, Expertise in chemistry, Smooth-talking, Charisma As a monster: Superhuman strength, Regeneration, High durability, Tentacles, Claws, Fangs, Energy absorption through tentacles

Followers: Zazu, The Huntsman

Allies: Mojo Jojo, Jacques von Hämsterviel,

Enemies: The Powerpuff Girls, Professor Utonium, Bunny

• It had been quite some time since the day Dick had seemingly died during the fire the destroyed his factory. When the fire finally cleared out, Dick had regained his consciousness and was relieved to found out he was still alive, badly bruised and with a couple of broken boned, but still, he was alive. He was also back in his human form, from before he drank that X. Suddenly he notices a bunch of fire trucks, police cars, and ambulances that had showed up at his now destroyed factory. A news reporter confronted Dick about how this happened. Dick chose to play innocent and said the his girls had tried to kill him when he was just trying to sell his products, proposefully leaving out the part were he abused them. Dick's placed onto a stretcher and loaded into a ambulance going to the hospital. It took months for Richard to heal from his lethal injuries, and one of the ads he saw on a TV in the hospital was for the Pantheon. As soon as he was back on his feet, he snuck his way into the Pantheon hoping to find other deities similar to him, but he only got so far before getting caught by the Professor and his girls. Needless to say, Utonium was not happy to see him again. Just as he was about to kick his old college roommate out a second time, one of the evil gods appeared, praised Dick for being able to do so much chaos in so little time, and threatened to kill the Utonium and the girls if they so much as thought about touching him. Dick was allowed to stay, but he couldn't interact with the girls too often.

• He spends a lot of time with Dr. Hamsterviel due to the fact that they sounded awfully alike and would often look around to see if any of the experiments were lying around. Of course, he wanted to use the experiments as his next big thing, and asked Hamsterviel if he ever thought about making money off the experiments. Hamsterviel responsed by saying they couldn't make money off the products they didn't have then he barked at him telling him to get back to work.

How's this for a start?

@Nightelf: You know... you could just at least wait for others to approve Patrick's profile, then when it's up you can put in that change for yourself. Or just do it in his sandbox, unless Patrick bans you from there...

Either way, you can't just be impatient if he's not gonna do what you asked him to do.

@SpaceProtagonist: You haven't properly proposed Dick Hardly and why he's good for the trope as per the rules. Sure, you're reasoning is in the first paragraph and yeah you're not gonna stick around for long but your recent post shows that you haven't been paying attention.

Next time on Dr. Phil Straddles The Border...

@Nightelf: I think the Diamonds look okay (I think Blue Diamond would probably be mortified by the relationship of her "clouds" to stoners, after she learned what that meant), but at the moment I think "Allies" might be a very strong word for their relationship with the Crystal Gems. Also, this is self-promotion, but since I'm hoping that I can ascend Rose soon, shouldn't you mention their relationship with her? (My personal guess is that it will take a long time before she's willing to even try forgiving them, but that is just me). Also, if Kerrigan is mentoring them, maybe put her under Allies in place of the C Gs?

Given how similar their names are, maybe make him an enemy of Nightwing/Richard "Dick" Grayson too. Just a thought.

EDIT: Hey, since Royal came out, should we ascend Violet/Kasumi Yoshizawa (the newest member of the Thieves in Persona 5 Royal) as their newest teammate? Also, we might want to edit Goro Akechi's profile. Just making the suggestion - I can try doing it myself, but I haven't purchased Royal.

Ya’know considering how many villains there were I’m suprised there’s only one Complete Monster out of all of them.

@SpaceProtagonist If it's true that this character wasn't properly suggested, then I'm afraid I must give it an instant on principle.

In another few hours, the sun will rise.

Probably because a good deal of them have funny moments, too.

Check out my fanfiction account here!

Dick doesnt qualify for the trope so i'm the suggestion. Sorry.

Uni cat

@Hello101 From what my research indicates, both the CGs nor the Diamonds are living harmoniously and neither side are harboring any grudges against each other in the present. Whether or not they should be is a whole other conversation, and one that's entirely irrelevant to this case.

In another few hours, the sun will rise.

Fair enough, I guess. I suppose any real ire would probably be from the Crystal Gems, and they don't live close enough to the Diamonds (or see them enough) for said ire to show up if it exists. (I doubt that they don't have issues with the Diamonds, but their issues aren't big enough or personal enough for them to upset the peace over it. Essentially, they can shelve their dislike). So yeah, for fear of starting an argument that's probably going to have to be all can we say on that topic.

@Muun: If only I could edit their profiles to begin with. I'm guessing Serious Business can't count for humor unless I explicitly pothole Humor Mode or Sarcasm Mode, Huh?

Weird that Money Fetish isn't taken in the first place.
