Trope Pantheons Discussion

Here's my in-progress rework of the GochiUsa girls. Just want answers to these questions before I finish the rework.

For Chino, anyone who works at a family establishment, or otherwise work at a place their relatives founded?

For Rize, anyone descended or otherwise related to soldiers?

Any other suggestions are acceptable.

For those wondering about the last part in Sharo's sections, it's a continuation of a part in Melkor's profile. It was Migami's idea, I'm just continuing the plot thread.

• Once upon a time, a girl named Cocoa Hoto moved into a new town to attend high school, and was searching for the cafe she's supposed to work in to pay for her accomodations. A certain cafe known as the Rabbit House brought her attention, and she entered the establishment thinking that it would be a place where you could cuddle rabbits. Inside she met Chino Kafuu, a precocious child with a pet angora rabbit atop her head. Surprised by the lack of rabbits inside, Cocoa realizes that the Rabbit House is the very cafe she was looking for. She decides to take the job and befriends Chino while calling herself her big sister much to Chino's embarressment. She also met another worker in the Rabbit House, the military-obsessed Rize Tedeza, as well as the refined, traditional Chiya Ujimatsu working at the sweets shop Ama Usa An and the dignified, impoverished Sharo Kirima who works at the tea shop Fleur de Lapin. Together with her new friends, Cocoa would enjoy the coming days with all her might.
• Applies to the group:
  • Ever since their ascension, the girls often kept trying to persuade the Court of the Gods to open up their cafes in the Pantheon so they can continue working and serve other deities with delicious drinks and treats. After some beureacratic issues, the Court allowed them to open the new branches. With enough help from the House of Craft, the Rabbit House, Ama Usa An, and Fleur de Lapin's Pantheonic branches finally opended their doors, eliciting much celebration from the girls.
  • The girl's cafe establishments are located in the House of Food and are quite close to eachother. All three of them are rabbit themed, and are staffed by the girls as well as a few mortal workers from their world.
    • The Rabbit House is staffed by Cocoa Hoto, Chino Kafuu, and Riza Tedeza and in fact was founded by Chino's grandfather. The cafe serves coffee, so naturally many coffee loving gods tend to visit the place. Godot, being the coffee conoisseur as he is, enjoys the Rabbit House's coffee, although he still tends to wax poetic about the flavors much to the girls initial confusion. They experieced some whiplash when Pandemonica's demeanor changed from tired to sadistic after she gets her fill of coffee, but thankfully their drinks are good enough to prevent her from manhandling them. Copen also sometimes visits the cafe for his drink, but the girls feel a bit antsy around him because of his vengeful nature. The girls were quite unhappy to hear find out that a Mr. Saturn replaced one of their drinks with their own psychedelic ones, resulting in one patron getting drugged.
    • Ama Usa An is staffed by Chiya Ujimatsu, and the establishment has a traditional Japanese theme, as well as serving traditional Japanese sweets. A few sweets lovers have made their visits to the cafe to try it out. Stocking Anarchy loves visiting the place to gorge on sweets, and sometimes Chiya has to stop her from eating all of the sweets in the catalogue. Yuu Sonoda is also a frequent visitor as she loves anything macha flavored, to the point that she occasionally helps Chiya with making new matcha-based treats. Houkago Tea Time sometimes have their dessert time in this place, enjoying Chiya's specialties.
    • Fleur de Lapin is staffed by Sharo Kirima, and the establishment has the waitresses dressed in maid uniforms, and they serve herbal tea there, perfect for any tea alficionado. Iroh sometimes visits the cafe to drink the tea there, as in turn Sharo has made her visits to Iroh's tea shop, and has greatly enjoyed the tea there. Lynette Bishop became a regular customer as she wanted to try out Japanese-style tea. Alice of the Blood Team and the Mad Hatter are also frequent patrons, with Alice's tea party obsession and the Mad Hatter's sheer quirkiness initially overwhelmed Sharo, but she quickly got accustomed to them as they're otherwise pleasant people. Byleth also sometimes drink tea there, and they tend to gift Sharo with tea blends from Fódlan for her to try out, and Sharo is considering adding them to her menu.
  • Of course, they're not the only ones in the Pantheon running Cafes, so they ended up seeking out other cafes in the Pantheon. They met up with Maika Sakuranomiya and Hideri Kanzaki, who work at Cafe Stile, a maid cafe where the waitresses take up roles based on popular anime archetypes. The girls were initially intimidated by Maika's sadistic looking expression, but she defused the situation by explaning that she relexively makes that face whenever she feels stressed. They were also surprised that Hideri is actually a crossdressing boy, but took the reveal in stride. They became great partners, and frequently visit eachother's establishments. They also met and befriended Chiyoko Shiraishi, a worker at a Cosplay Café based on international cultures, which Sharo was intrigued by, as her cafe is based on maids. They also came over to Cafe Leblanc where Sojiro Sakura works at, and he enjoys the girls as his customers. They were intrigued by Professor E. Gadd's Beanbean cafe as the drinks come from beans from the Beanbean cafe, and they were surprised to find out that the drinks rather delicious and healthy in spite of their ridiculous names. They were amazed that the Polar Bear Cafe is staffed by acyual talking animals, as well as that they live in a world where animals and humans coexist peacefully. This didn't stop Cocoa from trying to cuddle them on their first meeting. On the other hand, they're confused by Killer Bean as he is a living coffee bean, and Killer Bean's discomfort with coffee in general makes him avoid the girls whenever possible.
  • Given that the restaurants are all rabbit themed and even have their own rabbit residing in the building, it wasn't surprising to find out that the girls love rabbits, which means they take frequent trips to the House of Rabbits and Rodents to cuddle with the rabbits. The exception is Sharo, as her leporiphobia makes her avoid much of the rabbit deities whenever she can. The girls were amazed to see such a powerful bunny like Bunnymund reside in the House, and he was quite amused to see the girls take a large interest in him. Bugs Bunny initially played some pranks on them, but then he cleared up the misunderstanding when they began to look upset, so they get along with eachother. They thought that iyamoto Usagi being a samurai rabbit was really cool, too. They were surprised that Angel Bunny was quite fierce for such a tiny rabbit, so their first meeting went quite awry when Angel got cranky with their cuddling so Fluttershy had to intervene. Angell since then has calmed down, but still gets a bit cranky whenever they're too affectionate with him. On the other hand, they stay far away from the Killer Rabbit of Caerbannog, as his violent nature and surprising strength made them reconsider cuddling him, plus Sharo would definately faint at the sight of him.
    • The girls also met with other rabbit deities outside of the House. They became one of the few humans Hazel is willing to trust, as they're quite careful and gentle around him, and they feel sorry that he had to go through much tribulations to escape the warren. They practically fell in love with Ruby and were amazed at her magic capabilities, but they sometimes get caught in the crossfire when her magic backfires. They are deathly afraid of Springtrap, not only for his frightening looks but also being possesed by the child murderer William Afton. Bonnie is less scary looking, but the girls still keep their distance from him considering his violent streak. Surprisingly, they get along with the Doom Slayer after they found out he used to have a pet rabbit named Daisy, who unfortunately was killed by demons. Sometimes the Doom Slayer visits the cafes just to pet the rabbits there between his regular demon slaying.
    • The Girls were intrigued when they say Reisen and Tewi, who happen to be a moon rabbit and a rabbit who happen to look a lot like humans with rabbit characteristics. The girls thought they are cute, but they do get headaches when they stare too long into Reisen's eyes and Tewi loves to prank around with the girls. They also befriended Yoshino who's not only wearing bunny-inspired clothes but also has a hand puppet named Yoshinon who she talks to on a regular basis. The girls introduced Tippy to Yoshinon and they became quite the Vitriolic Best Buds. They also bonded with Hibari as she has a ninja rabbit named Ninto that she can summon, though he can be quite feisty at times.
• Exclusive to Cocoa:
  • Cocoa is a huge fan of cute things, and loves to cuddle things she considers cute. Chino and Tippy happen to be in that category, much to Chino's annoyance. She gets along with Yui Hirasawa, Rena Ryugu, and Yaya Panda because they also love cute things, and they sometimes hang out to cuddle and fawn over cute things and even cute deities like Pichu and Togepi are not free from their adoration.
  • Cocoa is... not the best with directions, as without a proper guide (and even with) she strays off the path a whole lot and ends up somewhere she didn't intend to go. George and Karl, Celica A. Mercury, and Linkle can relate to being horrible at directions, so they made themselves a little club. needless to say, trying to give any one of these Deities directions can and will go wrong. Like the other directionally-challenged memebers, she once got lost in Devil World, and while she managed to escape unharmed, she's rather afraid of the blue Devil ever since.
  • While Cocoa does her job as a waitress well, her skills as a cook leaves much to be desired. The only food item she can make successfully are entirely bread-based, anything else tends to end in failure. She became good friends with Kazuma Azuma after she tasted his bread, and Kazuma is also interested in eating her bread. Meanwhile, some deities like Gordon Ramsay desire to teach her to cook other foods and to prepare coffee for the establishment.
  • While spacy, Cocoa is something of a mathemathical savant, being able to calculate large sums instantly and can count prime numbers up to the thousands range in her head. She doesn't really consider these skills to be anything special, but it helps when it comes to calculating costs. Sho Minamimoto, already a mathemathics wiz, wants to test out her math skills, but she's rather intimidated by his behaviour, so his attempts usually end in failure.
• Exclusive to Chino:
  • Chino is the youngest of the girls, and is rather mature and well-spoken for her age, often being exasperated by Cocoa's antics. She gets along well with other mature children in the Pantheon like Negi Springfield, Ui Hirasawa, Aya Drevis, and Chiyo Mihama. She's impressed that Negi became a teacher at such a young age and is one of the most mature people in his classroom full of wacky teenage girls, and Chiyo skipping straight to high school because of her intellect also greatly impressed her. She was amused that Ui was the more responsible and mature sister to Yui despite being younger than her, which reminded Chino of her relationship to Cocoa. For Aya, she was alarmed that her father was trying to kill her to turn her into a doll, and is amazed that she could keep her composure during such a harrowing time.
  • (people who inherit businesses)
  • Chino is sometimes seen with her two mortal friends, Megumi Natsu and Maya Jouga. The two are practically never seen apart from eachother, nevertheless apart from Chino. The two girls often claim to have a psychic link between them, and when the more incredulous deities watch how they act, it's likely they're not bluffing, or at least really good at keeping the ruse up.
  • Chino owns a pet Angora rabbit named Tippy, who sits atop her head and also functions as the Rabbit House's mascot. Chino's rather protective of Tippy, as she only allows people to cuddle her once per coffee cup. Of course, some deities like Rena Ryugu steal Tippy for themselves to cuddle, making Chino chase after them around the Pantheon. May Chang's bond with Xiao-Mei is similar her Chino's bond with Tippy, so the two girls and their pets got along with eachother and admire eachother's pets.
    • Unbeknownst to many deities, Tippy is actually Chino's grandfather and the one who founded Rabbit House. No one knows how this is possible, but Chino is dedicated to keeping that secret hidden from others as she is very aware that the more curious and nosy deities, especially the ones from the Houses of Knowledge and Science will likely kidnap Tippy and experiment on him to discover how such a thing is possible. Only a very small pool of deities like Yoshino know about Tippy's secret, as Chino can trust them to not spill the beans.
• Exclusive to Rize:
  • Rize is the daughter of a wealthy former soldier, and she's absolutely obsessed with anything related to the military to the point that she carries around a model Glock and a combat knife with her on her person at all times. She loves frequenting the House of War to see all the soldiers, generals, and military technologies residing there. She befriended SCP-516 due to it being a sentient tanks, and she sometimes rides it around the House. She was intrigued by the concept of Sensha-Do, so she decided to watch one match. Ever since that match, she became close friends with the ascended practicioners of Sensha-Do, and loves to inspect their gear whenever possible. She and Gertrude Barkhorn got along easily because of the latter being in the Strike Witches as well as her pride in her military technology. While she's impressed by Stroheim's technological enhancements, she knows that she should keep her distance from him due to being a Nazi.
    • Rize also encountered a few Goddesses who are involved in the military or combat situations. She's fascinated by the Tactical Dolls, who are Ridiculously Human Robots who serve as soldiers on the battlefield, and are named after the guns they wield. She would love to meet the other Dolls sometime in the future. She's interested in Isuzu's Steinberger in how it fires magic bullets that cause great pain without any wound, as well as her royal guard training making her socially deficient. With Violet Evergarden, she noted that she had to retire because of her losing her arms during a battle, knowing that the battlefield is full of dangers. She loves to ask them about how warare and the military in their worlds function, often taking notes to compare with other militia.
  • (military brat)
  • Rize is a star student at her school, where she gets excellent grades in class and is good at physical activities, making her very popular among her classmates. Hinagiku Katsura also happens to excel at both academic and athletic pursuits at school as well as being very popular, so the two get along and even compete to see who's better at certain subjects.
  • Once when Solid Snake was out sneaking, he found a rather conspicuous closet in his way. When he opened it, Rize wearing nothing bbut her underwear suddenly leaped out pointing her Glock at him. After the initial shock, Snake asked her just what she's doing in an environment like this, to which she said she hid to surprise Cocoa the same way she did when they first met, only for her to get suddenly teleported in an unfamiliar location. Snake managed to get her out of the area safely, and is considering using her surprise trick in the future.
• Exclusive to Chiya:
  • Since Chiya's family runs a cafe selling Japanese sweets with a traditional theme, Chiya is often seen wearing a kimono and also acts rather traditionally, being calm, polite, and subdued, although with a touch of steel inside. She gets along with Hokuto, who is also a very traditional Japanese woman, and she feels quite saddened about having to kill her renegade brother through any means possible.
  • Chiya has a habit of giving nicknames to her dishes, which happen to be very strange and overly descriptive, and she tends to slip into this habit during the job, so patrons often get confused when she states something that's not on the menu, only to find out it's just a weird nickname for something they can order.
  • While not the strongest deity around by a long shot, Chiya is remarkably good at dodging, especially if it's against thrown objects. She always seems to avoid getting hit by thrown projectiles, whether or not she's actually aware of it. Son Goku, who has mastered Ultra Instinct, a state in which he can dodge anything without thinking, is impressed that a regular human like her has mastered the art of dodging without any powerups.
  • It might be surprising, but there's nothing Chiya loves more than a good horror story. Whenever she hears or reads a horror story, she just giggles and calls it romantic, which disturbs some deities. She even considers the House of Fear and places like Spooky's Mansion to be romantic, which greatly frustrates Spooky and other deities wishing to genuinely scare her. Koume Shirasaka is glad to meet another goddess who loves scary things, so they enjoy telling eachother spooky stories.
• Exclusive to Sharo:
  • Given how Sharo acts rather dignified, her attending an elite school, and her good looks, it would be easy to assume that she's rather wealthy. The truth is that she's rather poor, she's attending the school on a scholarship and she works hard in both school and work to exit poverty. Ochaco can relate to her plight, as she attends the U. A. to earn money to help her impoverished family, and Sharo is happy that there's someone to understand her struggles. Akihisa Yoshii is also an impoverished student attending a prestigious school, but the rest of his family is rather well off and he's stuck in the worst class thanks to his poor test scores. Sharo appreciates his company, even if he embarrasses her sometimes. She also gets along with Yomi, as she grew up in the slums and attended a school filled with middle to upper-class students, and Sharo pities her for holding grudges towards the rich because the ones she met were unkind towards her.
    • She also interacted with other deities residing in Poverty and Riches. She sympathizes with the Kims for trying to climb out of their poor living, but isn't really a fan of how they continue to leech off the rich with underhanded tactics even when they've proven themselves to be more than capable of earning money through honest means. She greatly envies Charlie Bucket for becoming rich through chance rather than hard work like her, cursing herself about how she wishes that she has his luck.
  • (maids (Felicia, G36, Fiona)) The cafe she works in, Fleur de Lapin, has the waitresses dress in maid outfits. Aside from the aforementioned Maika and Hideri, Sharo did encounter some actual maids in the Pantheon as well as maid cosplayers like Felicia, Fiona Mayfield, Sakuya Izayoi, and G36.
  • More recently, the girls have noticed that Sharo has... changed a bit. Not only is she more authoritative and intimidating when serious, but she's also struggling more often during her creative pursuits as well as a growing interest in anything darkness related, including visits to the House of Darkness and Shadow. When they asked her about her changes, she said that she didn't feel anything different or odd prior to her changes, but did admit that she occasionally has the feeling of being watched, but can't find anyone around watching her. Otherwise, she feels normal, but the girls do wonder what made her change.

Mention Sharo humming a certain tune that only few ever know of...

Tank Goodness is still free, right? I have a few suggestions from a few films and games, but I'm thinking the Crew of "Fury" might be the most suitable, given that their tank is already ascended in the Pantheon.

To elaborate, the entire film has them go against hundreds of German soldiers, anti-tank guns, and even a Tiger I tank, and manage to take out most of them. They only die thanks to running out of ammunition and being heavily outnumbered, but in the process they manage to stop the German counterattack. In addition, despite the film itself suffering from several cases of Artistic License – Military and Artistic License – History, the film still has moments of Shown Their Work, such as the use of period-accurate tanks and accurate tactics for the most part.

• Enemies: Cosmic supervillains in general, SCP-682, the Legendary Foes, Dis, Lord English, the Grand United Alliance of Destruction, Mannfred von Carstein, Sarda
• On poor terms with: The House of Demons
• One of the most enigmatic yet powerful figures of the DC Universe is the Phantom Stranger. He tends to show up to help people deal with supernatural events, but rarely has a direct hand in things. He has an habit of appearing (and disappearing) when nobody is looking, which most people find very annoying. Though it's know he is Walking the Earth, the reasons for so is unknown. No-one is certain of his origins, though intentionally conflicting origins have been given. Whether none, any or maybe even multiple origins are true is debated, but most tend to consider him Inexplicably Awesome.
• Has a complicated relationship with the Spectre, the only other DC character who could compared to the Stranger in terms of nature and powers. The two are quite associated to each other through continuities, though they are alternately presented as Headbutting Heroes, Arch-Enemies or even Those Two Guys. However the general mystery of the Stranger lead to debates upon his return on whether to make him a Greater God or Overdeity, before settling in the former to be safe; the full extent of his powers has never been revealed.
• Part of the Quintessence, a benevolent Omniscient Council of Vagueness comprised of himself, Zeus, Ganthet, Highfather and the wizard Shazam!. The Phantom Stranger tends to show up in the Pantheon Protectors, given his role as an enigmatic aide and protector. He's found a kinship with both Gandalf and Merlin, the latter due to their mystic nature. Naturally he opposes the Legendary Foes.
• Started off as a host of "supernatural" mysteries he'd reveal as hoaxes, only for the audience to wonder if he was supernatural. Be it nostalgia for his old role, the Phantom Strange has become fond of Mystery Incorporated and has aided them in uncovering hoaxes. Sometimes he even shows up to aid the detective goals of Detective Pikachu. However he is no less reliable than with superheroes, tending to come and go as he pleases. One time he was asked to get some bread, and it took him two years and he didn't remember which type of bread to get.
• At least four potential origins have been posited for the Stranger, which affects his interactions with certain gods. According to Nekron he is neither living nor dead, and is enigmatic enough a Black Lantern was burned trying to take his heart. Regardless he has a kinship with AZ, as regardless of the origin they are stuck as wanderers. And in some, atonement and regret is a motivation for the Stranger.
  • The Phantom Stranger was a man called Isaac, the Wandering Jew. His son was a victim of the Massacre of the Innocents, and resented Jesus for this. He ended up bribing a guard to torture Jesus, who sentenced him to wander until doomsday for this. He eventually realized his mistake and devoted himself to doing good, even turning down an offer to be allowed to die and go to heaven. Christian deities were intrigued by this and have generally accepted his repentance.
  • Another origin that intrigues the House of Faith was the "good man" origin. He was spared God's wrath when punishing a group of people, and when questioning God's actions committed suicide. However he was Barred from the Afterlife and condemned to walk the Earth, saving one soul at a time. The various incarnations of God in the pantheon debate on the judgement of (presumably) the Presence, except for YHVH who remains oddly silent about His thoughts on the Phantom Stranger.
  • The Phantom Stranger might actually be a time traveler from near the end of the universe, where his colleagues were trying to use time travel to stop the end. However an Omnicidal Maniac was trying to hijack the program to Ret-Gone the universe. The Stranger would go back in time to stop this and be transformed by the energies of the Big Bang, living to eventually to start his past self's journey and die at the end of time. With this is mind, he has ties to the Pantheonic Time Police and the Doctor. They have suggested he could circumvent a lot of the waiting by visiting Milliways, only for the Stranger to give them a sad smile and say "I'm sorry, I just can't do that".
  • It has also been suggested that the Phantom Stranger was an angel who stayed neutral in the War in Heaven, only for Neutrality Backlash to hit afterwards as he is neither welcome in Heaven or Hell. And his wings were later ripped off by a demon. The House of Demons support this by calling him a coward and a traitor, though they may just be trying to screw with him. Whis, a more neutrally inclined angel(though definitely in good graces with the Top God), seems to like the Phantom Stranger, what with them both being angelic beings who aid in a light touch, though very subtly in Whis' case. The Stranger simply said to him "I'm but the lifeform known as the Phantom Stranger".
• During the New 52 the Phantom Stranger seemed to have a definitive origin, though his background has been retconned back to be mysterious again. He was Judas Iscariot, and alongside Pandora and the Question was cursed due to the enormity of his sins. It was divisive, due to lacking mystery though also giving him a more definitive character and humanizing him. And some in the pantheon have been searching for this specific version.
  • The Emperor of the Kingdom Dolorous wants to know why he's not being chewed forever in one of his mouths. Having become the epitome of absolute evil, and being associated with demons, the Phantom Stranger was never welcome near him. The Stranger seems to relate to both Brutus and Akechi Mitsuhide given their similar backgrounds, but how he feels about them depends on their moods.
  • As Judas, the Phantom Stranger was cursed to inevitably betray all he worked for, however he doesn't like it. While any given origin wouldn't stop the Stranger finding Mannfred Von Carstein to be repellent, this incarnation has particular contempt due to the shame he feels in betraying the Messiah.
  • The first murderer sought out the Phantom Strange as another Biblical Bad Guy, but now doesn't know what to think of him. Neither does SCP-073.
• Though his true origin remains a mystery, the Phantom Stranger's foes in the pantheon reflect more than one possible origin. His opposition to Lord English and Sarda suggests the time traveler origin, his contempt of Dis suggests the neutral angel and Brutus origin. In general he opposes the GUAD's plans to destroy all life.
• The SCP Foundation is fascinated by the Phantom Stranger and wishes to know what exactly he is. They classify him as an anomaly, though Euclid class as he is benevolent and doesn't show any overtly destructive powers. However they aren't containing him (yet) because he has aided them in some containment breaches. Mainly SCP-682. The two faced off one another and neither seems to get a hold on the other. 682 screeched "you do not belong here [DATA EXPUNGED]!", which just raises more questions.
  • No, the Phantom Stranger is not Dr Clef. Just because they are enigmatic and have an unreliable Multiple-Choice Past doesn't mean they're the same person. For one, Clef is a lot ruder than the Stranger.
• Castiel seems fond of him, though mainly if the idea that the Phantom Stranger was a neutral angel is in fact the truth. Otherwise the two have been seen complimenting each other on their fashion sense. The House of Capes and Coats are impressed by his Badass Longcoat. Sometimes the Stranger helps out Linkara, and the two can be seen complimenting each other's hats.
• His face is always framed in shadow, regardless of the position of light around him. Or if he's even wearing a hat. He's just cool like that.

Whoops. Was supposed to ascend her yesterday.

The Kuremi Detective Agency has opened up in the House of Food.

I corrected her base rank.

@Rmpdc Perhaps I can give Wardaddy and his tank crew a go, I was able to do Miho's rework so Wardaddy and his crew shouldn't be a problem, also, I'd like to ask others for their suggestions for Tank Goodness so that we may weigh which suggestion is generally better. I mean there was the film called Lebanon but there isn't a TV Tropes page for it so, maybe others can give their insight.

Dammit, I was considering someone else for that trope.

I have MLP!Spike in my rework queue, and I'd like to figure out what interactions with him have been added.

I even got a Future pic early.

• Spike's origins are a complete mystery. Nobody knows his parents, only that Princess Celestia found his egg. In Twilight Sparkle's entance exam, using her magic, she ended up hatching his egg… and then temporarily making him huge before Celestia intervened to fix that. He was then taken care of by the princess for a while until Twilight's first day at the School for Gifted Unicorn, after which she transfered him to her and her family. Despite the racial difference, he was raised lovingly in a family like a little brother, and eventually, he got assigned (or perhaps assigned himself) as Twilight's "number one" assistant.
  • He first "ascended" to the Pantheon as Twilight Sparkle's herald. After a while, he was "promoted" to godhood to represent Audience Surrogate given he's The One Guy among the main characters comprised of females, just like most of the Periphery Demographic. Some time later, he got a position change to Hyper-Competent Sidekick (with his former trope taken by Jaune Arc) after he single-handedly derailed King Sombra's total victory over the Crystal Empire thanks to his true loyalty to Twilight. As for why he inherited the trope, it's due to his position, the many things he's capable of, and that while she's plenty competent, there are also times where she would be comepletely screwed without him. This title change was commemorated with his own stained glass window and a giant crystal statue of himself.
  • He's also expressed great relief that Sombra has since been removed from the Pantheon altogether. Not that he likes the loser king's replacement.
  • And then his worry returned when Sombra finally re-ascended under a different title.
• Is occasionally seen holding discussions with Alfred and Luigi, asking for advice and to compare mustaches, respectively.
• Is not to be confused with the Spikes of Instant Death, or Parappa's other rival, Spike.
  • PaRappa, having heard that a Spike had taken up a throne, was quick to take to battle with him. Although the specifics of this match and the winner is unknown, Spike and Parappa became good friends, especially when PaRappa learned of Spike's exploits.
• Does not enjoy the attention John Cena receives from Rarity after having learn what happened when John Cena employed his "This is whining" skills and Rarity offering to make shirts for him, but knows better than to call him out on this.
  • To Spike's credit, John Cena congratulated the dragon on his never-give-up attitude and loyalty to his friends against the threat of King Sombra.
• Is banned from the House of Commerce, mostly because he will become consumed by greed and transform into a hulking behemoth that can only be taken down by a few giant gods (King Kong and Godzilla being the prime ones) without harm. To his credit, though, not all riches in the house are gold and jewels (e.g. paper cash and various other weird currencies). That said, he's eventually learned to curb his desires by the time they reached the Crystal Empire (and is even hailed as a hero over all his other friends for his deeds), so he's allowed in again, but will be under heavy scrutiny whenever gold or gems are in sight.
• Occasionally visits the House of Love for advice on Rarity. Hilarity often results.
  • As for how that all began, it was Love at First Sight for him when he and Twilight were sent to Ponyville to help prepare for the Summer Sun Celebration. Since then, when he isn't tending to Twilight's needs, he's tending to Rarity's, and everybody, including the target of his affections, knows how he feels. However, even by the end of the show, despite the opportunity to finally establish what exactly Spike means for Rarity, the situation between them has remained ambiguous.
• With his appetite getting the better of him, Spike once attempted to sneak into the newly claimed throne of Smaug to see what rare (and delicious) jewels the dragon kept for himself. It didn't take long for Spike to run for his life, lest he be roasted or eaten by the red drake.
• Spike was pleased to learn that the Pantheon has a good amount of good-aligned dragons, especially since every other known dragon he's seen in his world so far prior to befriending Ember and helping her become Dragon Lord were anything but good (barring one Dragon Town next to Fillydelphia, though its existence clashes with show canon), Spike has enjoyed Spyro's company in particular since Spyro's been doing what he can to assure Spike that dragons aren't inherently evil. Spyro and Spike also like to share stories about their respective adventures, though Spyro finds it weird that Spike, unlike him, eats what gems he collects.
• Is occasionally gushed over by Squigly, who considers him "a cute lil' dragon". While he was embarrassed at first, he grew to enjoy the chin scratchings.
• Spike has been targeted by Acnologia, of all creatures, for two reasons: One, Acnologia has heard about Spike's hulking behemoth form and desires to fight it to see if he's worth killing, and two, the Black Dragon believes that Spike is a fool for having feelings for ponies, of all creatures. However, Spike has plenty of friends who will back him up, or at least help him get away, so, while he is scared of Acnologia, he refuses to let that fear rule him.
• One time, Godzilla decided to attack Ponyville while his usual target, Tokyo, was being rebuilt, causing Twilight to resort to bringing out Spike's greedy form in a desperate attempt to stop the rogue monster. To the amazement of everyone, Spike actually managed to not only fight Godzilla to a draw, but also became one of the very few to reason with and befriend the Kaiju.
• Spike often had doubts about his own abilities and merit among such powerful friends as his. This has gotten worse, with his role increasingly being relegated to the Butt-Monkey and the news of lackluster reactions to his episodes and the doubts of some who question whether or not he can carry a story on his own. But luckily, the little dragon has plenty of friends to tell him otherwise. Even some new ones who have begun to sympathize with Spike's plight. Including one Philip J. Fry. Who knows what it's like feeling unimportant, to want to be with girl that does not see you in the same way, and constantly being held back with his role as the but monkey, but assured the young dragon, that even if you feel like the least important person in the universe, you can tern out to be the most important.
• Spike became the target of further interest and respect when he entered a dangerous competition of royalty in order to protect ponies from a potential tyrant from becoming Dragon Lord. Spike succeeded in this though he gave the staff and title to Ember, a dragon who assisted him and wanted to rule after her father while Spike merely entered to protect his friends. The fact he still won and had the title for however briefly and especially that he was able to surrender it has garnered him plenty of respect.
  • And he's become the target for Queen Chrysalis's wrath since, without Spike willing to befriend Thorax, her reign of terror would've continued.
• Thinks green beans are nasty.

Best to explain his crush on Rarity in detail early in the profile.

@ Hamana: So that means Sgt. Wardaddy and the rest of Fury's crew can be approved if no one else here can give a good countersuggestion for Tank Goodness?

Edited by Rmpdc on Jun 30th 2020 at 2:47:41 AM

I mean if I can make their profile instead

Got a few ideas. What do you think?

• Lord Business, Divine Herald Of Eccentric Eighties Businessmen (House of Character Archetypes): a subtler parody, but still. Lord Business is an eccentric, wealthy and powerful businessman who's high profile in his city, and has a bizarre hairstyle.
• Sweet Mayhem, Goddess of Angelic Aliens (House of Extraterrestrial Appearance and Biology/Angels)-a minidoll from the Systar System, she resembles an angel due to being in all-white, having luminous wings and is the messenger for a higher power.
• Methuselah, God of The Sacred Darkness (House of Darkness and Shadow): Methuselah is an old Anthropomorphic Personification formed from proto-man personifying the darkness around them. He's a lonely deity and somewhat negatively influenced/inclined by man, but remains an Anti-Villain still

to Lord Business.

@ Hamana: How about a collab, then? You keep Wardaddy and the Fury Crew in your Sandbox, and I'll help you write it once you start doing it. That sound good?

Standard repost.

The Chompies, Divine Race of Enemy Variants

• Reason: As The Goomba of the series, Chompies come in tons of variants outside of the standard green Chompy, with them getting a fresh new batch of variants each game! For all Chompy variants, see here.

Olympus Sports Assocation: The official sports organization of the Pantheon, regulating all divine sports activities. They cover all sports, each one having an “Overseer” in charge of that one sport. Various gods will be placed into teams with the sports they play in bold.

Even though I'm just about done with the profile itself, I'll still put this out there just in case.

No. of : 3 (Given by Weird Warrior, Rmpdc, and Someone Else 17)

Kor, God of Evil "Wise Seniors" (Metal Kor)

Potential House: Age & Youth

Reason: Kor, the main antagonist in Jak II, has been considered to represent Wise Old Folk Facade because he succeeds in representing that trope both figuratively and literally. He qualifies figuratively because he acts calmly and wisely around Jak, the game's protagonist, whereas in actuality he's short-tempered and impatient. When they first meet, Kor is the one to suggest to Jak that he join The Underground, a resistance movement founded to oppose the tyrannical rule of apparent Big Bad Baron Praxis.

Meanwhile, Kor is eligible for this trope in the literal sense because the "old folk" part is as much of a facade as the personality he gives off. By the end of the game, he reveals he's not an old man, but rather the leader of an Eldritch Abomination race called the Metal Heads. He disguised himself as a kindly man the whole time and pretended to side with the good guys so he could get ahold of the Precursor Stone (An artifact sealed beneath the city where the game takes place, which would give him the boost of energy he needed to destroy said city).

As a reminder, the idea is already approved, no need to go to the suggestion process again.

The thumbs are a short way of sayin "i approve of this idea" but they don't count towards the profile itself. That's what we meant when we told you to not count the thumbs yet.

Oh, ok.

Reposting now for any sorta of final thoughts or things that should be changed.

Demogorgon, the Unholy Spreader of Madness (Prince of Demons, The Deep Father, The Sibilant Beast, Master of the Spiraling Depths, The Imprisoned One)

• Potential House: Causes of Madness
• Greater God.
• Theme Music: This theme.
• Symbol: The Symbol of Demogorgon◊
• Alignment: Chaotic Evil.
• Portfolio: Resistance to Magic, Desire to destroy all things in his way, Focusing on fighting fellow Demons and the Devils over anything else, Evil Is Bigger, Figurehead of an evil religion, Drives those to madness just by looking at him, Having two heads with distinct personalities, Ability to inflict strange effects on those he hits, Driving those around him into a state of rage, Having a vaguely ape like appearance, A lesser god of evil, Seeking to bring ruin to the material plane by twisting it, A Demon of the Abyss.
• Domains: Insanity, Power, Slaughter, Madness, War, Chaos, Corruption.
• Allies: Diablo, Molag Bal, The Joker, Kefka Palazzo, The Demons of Inferno.
• Enemies: Drizzt Do'Urden, The Bhaalspawn and allies, The Hawkins Party, The Grand United Alliance Of Good and Law, Jyggalag, Meridia, Alexandra Roivas, Doctor Stephen Strange, The Belmont's, Zafina, Sparda
• Rivals: Orcus, The Shadow Monster, Sheogorath, The Forces of Chaos, Malebolgia, Fortinbras
• Interested In: Delirium of the Endless, The Seven Mortal Sins.
• Opposes: Satan (Shin Megami Tensei)
• The exact origins of Demogoron remain mystery that few can understand. According to some, he was a mortal who found his way to the Abyss and was corrupted by it. Others claim he was a Primordial who, after the Abyss was formed was turned into one of the first Demons by its energies, wherein after fighting against many of the first Demons, he emerged as the strongest of the bunch. Regardless of how he came to be, Demororgon emerged from the origins of the Abyss and Demons as the Prince of Demons, and its most powerful creation.
• His temple in the Pantheon can best be described as an Eldritch Location. Few have wandered into it for fear of whatever madness leaks from it, but those few who do are almost always permanently scared and become mad forever. Few mortals dare to ever approach his temple for fear of this, those who do only do so with the assurance of help from other powerful deities. Its rumored that inside his temple is a portal connecting to his layer of the Abyss, the Gaping Maw. Many heroes have hoped to one day assault his temple and drive him into said portal in the hopes that, once there, they can slay him and end his evil for good.
• Demogorgon has two heads; Aameul is his left head, and Hethradiah is his right head. Both are insane and try to usurp power over the other. Despite them hating each other, they are able to work together, which makes it all the more frightening when they agree on something.
  • Do not call his heads Dingus and Dongus! Once he finds out whoever gave him such a name, expect there to be chaos in his wake!
• On the rare occasion he leaves his temple, all hell breaks loose in the Pantheon. Like other Demon Lords, the longer he remains outside of the Abyss, the more the land transforms around him, meaning that unless defeated quickly, he'll warp the Pantheon itself. When he does leave, the Grand United Alliance of Good musters all their strongest and hearty warriors and pushes him back with all their might, fully aware that he will return and try again one day.
  • The threat of Demogorgon is such that members of the Grand United Alliance of Law are also willing to stand and oppose him, out of fear that his chaotic nature would disrupt the flow of the Pantheon itself.
• Despite his desire for destruction, the Grand United Alliance of Destruction refused to include him among their ranks. As strong as he is, they recognized his madness would bring about chaos in their ranks, and Nekron does not want to include such a Wild Card that would probably attempt to overthrow him.
• The Hawkins Party were terrified when they learned of his ascension, being big Dungeons & Dragons fans, they know exactly what kind of stuff he can bring to the table. Demogorgon finds them insignificant, as even with their knowledge, they are but ants to squash beneath his feet. He is interested in the being they called Demogorgon from their world, but only because he wants to kill it.
  • The Shadow Monster however earned his attention due to its attempts to influence their world. Its one of the few beings Demogorgon actually feels is a challenge to his power, and desires to slay it and use that hole left by it to continue destroying what he can.
• His relationships with the Daedric Princes is complicated.
  • As a being of madness and chaos, Demogorgon sees Sheogorath as a rival to his power. While their types of madness are different (Sheogorath is more of the Mad God type while Demogorgon is more Axe-Crazy), their similarities are enough to where even the insane Daedric Prince recognizes how insane Demogorgon is.
  • Naturally, Jyggalag holds him in contempt and singled him out as one of his greatest foes in the Pantheon. While Demogorgon is more focused on fighting other foes, the threat of Jyggalag is enough to where if the Daedric Prince ever stepped forward to stop him, Demogorgon would prioritize him above all else.
  • Meridia also stands against him, though not for the same reasons as she does Orcus. Primarily, the reasons she opposes him is because he's too much of a threat.
  • Molag Bal is one of the few Daedric Princes to actually get along with Demogorgon, though calling them friends is a big stretch. The shared love of destruction and ruin makes them able to work well together, though neither fully trust the other.
• The Joker was one of the few beings who seems almost immune to the maddening effects of Demogorgon, something that interests him greatly since the clown is stark mad as it is now. To that end, Demogorgon has attempts to convince the clown to enter into a pact with him in exchange for power, but the mad clown has no interest in his power, since if he had godlike power, it would be boring. For similar reasons, he has an interest in Kefka Palazzo.
• The Delirium of the Endless is one of the few beings that actually confuses Demogorgon. She's a being of such raw chaos that even he, a being of chaos itself, has trouble understanding what her goals, motivations, and actions are for. His interest in her seems routed in wanting to corrupt her to his side, but few can tell given how insane both of them are.
• The Forces of Chaos don't exactly like Demogorgon, seeing him as a rival to their power. Their one of the few groups Demogorgon would be willing to work alongside his fellow Demon Lords to overthrow, if only because he knows he couldn't defeat them all collectively.
• There are a few mortals the Demogorgon has taken notice of.
  • He has not forgiven Drizzt Do'Urden, and The Bhaalspawn and their allies for defeating him once. As such, he has sworn to track them down and slay them for their insolence.
  • Doctor Stephen Strange caught his attention because of his goal of safeguarding Earth from threats behind. Having not heard of Earth before, Demogorgon has kept an eye on the man in hopes of bringing him to madness and bring ruin to Earth.
  • Although he isn't a Vampire, The Belmont's have made sure to keep Demogorgon in their sight, as he presents such a threat to the world that needs to be stopped. Demogorgon is wary of them, as while they are simple men and women, their knowledge and their famous whip present a problem he would prefer be taken care of.
  • Zalfina hates Demogorgon, primarily reason being he reminds her of Azazel, the being who has possessed her. Demogorgon is interested in usurping control of her for himself.
  • Took an interest in Shinji Ikari due to the potential the boy has in causing destruction if he should lose control of himself.
• One of the only houses he seems to like going to is the House of Slaughter, mostly as an excuse to find things to destroy and bring ruin to.
• Demogorgon was not happy to learn that Orcus had ascended before him. If not for the fact that Orcus was in another House, he would have gone over and punished him for daring to do so.
• The House of Demons is a place that earns a good amount of Demogorgon's wrath. He can't stand Devils or Demons, and its one of the places where both are encountered.
  • Sparda and him hate each other. For Demogorgon, its mostly a case of seeing him as a threat and rival, but Sparda, having ascended beyond his kinds views, sees him a monster, and the worst of Demon kind. Its inevitable that a fight would breakout if they meet, but when is anyone's guess.
  • Malebolgia being one in charge of the hierarchy of Demons and Devils angered him. Not really because he did something to offend him, but because having someone else decide the ranks of the pantheon like that is something he feels he should control.
  • Fortinbras earned his wrath for daring to call himself the Lord of Demons. To do so is to challenge his status as the Prince of Demons, and like with many other Demons, Demogorgon wants him destroyed for such insolence.

Uni from Firearms is only 5 short bullets (8 counting sub-bullets, also short) long. Should they be cut or moved to reworks?

Once I have a decision on Uni I can submit the new house Projectiles for final approval.

Edited by Ferot_Dreadnaught on Jun 30th 2020 at 9:41:51 AM

I say cut her, unless someone knows enough about Neptunia to keep her

I saved her in my document, so feel free to delete her profile.

Done.

With that, Projectiles is ready to go up as soon as approved:

• 5th/final draft: Angry Birds, Eros, James Rhodes/War Machine, Vincent Godfrey, (L) Bette Noir, Erron Black, Hayato Kanzaki, Kardel Sharpeye, Kung Jin, Lynette Bishop, Mana Tatsumiya, Needle Man, Oliver Queen/Green Arrow, Sakuya Izayoi, (D) Fuze, The Lone Ranger, Mai, Sentry Turrets

Any last additions or thoughts?

Edited by Ferot_Dreadnaught on Jun 30th 2020 at 10:56:48 AM

Has anyone reserved All Your Powers Combined and Metamorphosis Monster? I've checked the Trope Pantheon Database and it's not taken ATM, IIRC

Edited by VengefulBale on Jun 30th 2020 at 1:13:45 PM

I reserved All Your Powers Combined for "All For One". As for Metamorphosis Monster, it's not taken yet, but I have been thinking about if Destoroyah can have that instead of Diabolus ex Nihilo.

It was originally a group of microscopic organisms, but they later transform into a series of more dangerous forms over the course of its debut film.

@Ferot:

I like that, Destoroyah's origins are too detailed for him to be a true Diabolus ex Nihilo. Is it allowed to that idea. If so, I can come up with a better candidate for Destoroyah's current trope
