Trope Pantheons Discussion

Go To

Welcome to the Trope Pantheons thread! Please read the rules:

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

    Instructions and Tips 
Here are some tips one should keep in mind when editing:

  • Preparing to write:
    • First thing to do before present a profile is to go to the Trope Pantheons discussion thread. In the forums, you must discuss with other users on adding ideas and seek their approval with sound reasoning. You can also get some assistance in the forum thread by either asking for help and those interested asking if they can help. Submissions that are added without discussion are likely to be deleted and those who violate those rules by adding Pantheon content without discussion will get reported to the mods.
    • If you feel the need to remove a character for some reason (poor quality, outdated titles, etcetera) and replace him/her with another or outright rework, please see what the other tropers think about this in the discussion thread before doing anything hasty. Use good reasoning to see if your idea can easily replace the character present without drawing out your statement or giving too ambiguous claims most do not understand.
    • Please be sure to consult others in the discussion about what you want to work before making the profile. This is done to see if your proposal is the best representative and so, in case your profile is turned down, you do not waste time writing something that others might not find suitable.
      • In the same vein, if you adopt a profile from another troper, it is recommended that you make an announcement that you have done so on the discussion thread. More often than not, a trope that was reserved for something was given away to someone else. Check the Related tab on the top of a page to see if a trope or character has been reserved by a user.
    • If, for whatever reason, you are writing about a God who just happens to be a person in real life, just try to be very careful about what you decide to say. Do not try to make the editing seem too meta (self-referential) and use the aformentioned creativity to create hypothetical scenarios towards fictional characters.
  • When writing a profile for a character, here are a few things to note:
    • All deities should be sorted by their divine ranking. Put Overdeities on the top of the page and Quasideities on the bottom. Also be sure to add them in alphabetical order by their first/given name (can be reversed if it is Eastern ordered). For a group, if there is no official name for them all list down all their names by order of relevance or (if too long to list) title them as Insert Name Here Main Characters or some other identifiable title along the same lines.
    • The maximum number of tropes that a god can have is two, but do not try to abuse that fact. If you need to use a second trope to specify a certain thing about their position, that can be excused either because said character represents their trope choice very well alongside the first trope. It is still generally encouraged to only have one trope.
    • A trope can only belong to one profile at a time. The only time two profiles can share a trope is if there are explicit variations listed in the trope page proper (e.g. Muscle Angst is held by both Biscuit Krueger and Chihiro Fujisaki as the former represents "Too Much Muscle" and the latter represents "Not Enough Muscle")
    • If the character you are about to add to a House already exists in another, make sure to mention that this person has spots in other House as well. Up to 2 places can be made for a deity, with the sole exceptions being those at the Main House to highlight those characters’ importance to the Pantheon’s lore.
    • For a character's theme song, try to avoid calling it "Theme of God X" or "Theme of (Show where God X originates from)". If possible, try to find out if the song has an actual name through research. Most importantly, it has to be part their series’ official soundtracks from media. Do not list songs that are made by fans or outside sources. If they were not specifically used as music for that specific character, then they do not count. Furthermore, it has to be a general theme specifically made for that characters’ appearances, not some generic music that plays for many other instances not related to the character in question.
    • For images, when adding an image for your chosen character, it is highly recommended to use a stylized image that embodies the character or renders that also highlights a character’s behavior (such as cool poses). Most images should be from the main adaptations of the character, unless the images from the other media are of a higher quality than the adaptation. Unless it is needed, do not use fanart for images. If you are, please attribute to the original artist. Due to the website’s dark mode, removing white backgrounds from an image is paramount. This website is suggested to do the background removal. If an image you have takes up too much bytes, it is suggestible to use this site to reduce the byte size. If the byte is still too big, put the compressed image to other sites (or even the same one) to compress even further. Use wikias to look for better images, as even wikias for the series might not contain good official images.
    • Creativity is your friend. While it is not recommended to get too ditzy at your ideas, it is best that when writing a profile for a certain character, do you think of capable scenarios between X and Y. Tip: do not use shallow examples (X wields a sword and Y wields one too) and try to think of relationships that makes sense (i.e those characters that are shout-outs for another).
  • Pantheon Content:
    • Some series or genres will eventually have greater representation in the Pantheon than others. This is unavoidable, but a little diversity helps to make you not look like a shill per say. Try to ensure that if you add a deity from a popular series, make sure that it is because they are a good representative for the trope in question, and not just because they are connected to another deity in their respective canon.
      • As far as deities from actual mythologies, there is generally expectation to build the profiles off interactions from fictional portrays rather than basing it entire from the actual myth. Therefore, a mythological deity should be more of a Composite Character whose main identity is from the actual myth.
    • Occasionally there will be Gods that carry a title without a trope. This is not forbidden, but it is well advised not to abuse them. The only house that a tropeless profile are wholly allowed is the House of Food. Mainly due to most food items lacking tropes, and adding tropes about said foodstuffs is slightly unnecessary. However, the character being ascended for their choice of a food, or food-related thing must be a decently good representative of said item. (i.e their Trademark Favorite Food, or something that they are closely associated with In-Universe, or both).
    • For Dominions and Treasures profiles, always consider what made those places/objects popular in the first place. Were they plot-important, identifiable imagery or have a unique aspect of it? Do not just bring regular objects under the basis of following a certain canon.
  • For Profile Standards:
    • Flavor text is used to describe certain things about a character, place or object. To avoid short ones, it is recommended to write flavor text with 4-7 sentences that can fill around 2 lines each. Be warned that adding too many sentences does not equal good flavor text as it is not an essay of sorts (unless words are substantial and do add to the overall line).
    • Character Profiles of a certain person should have the following:
      • A portfolio that contains at least 7 (at the minimum) tropes describing their character.
      • Flavor text count for a deity profile should have by minimum, 10 (depending if the character in question has enough relationships/characterization) to 15 with a maximum of 20-25 for an individual profile.
      • On the other hand, group profiles (profiles of a group that has 4 or more members) have their maximum flavor text count to 15 minimum, giving individual lines for the other members of the group (unless the members are not as characterized) up to 30 at max.
    • Dominion profiles of a certain place should have the following:
      • A portfolio that contains at least 5 (at the minimum) tropes describing the context of the place.
      • Flavor text count should range at least 10 to 15.
    • Treasure profiles (inanimate objects without a trope) should have the following:
      • A portfolio that contains at least 6 (at the minimum) tropes that describes the object itself.
      • Flavor text count should be at least 7 flavor text up to 12 to constitute a treasure profile.

    Divine Ranking System 
  • Overdeity: Omnipotent-level Reality Warpers capable of manipulating the entire universe (or at least the world) at will. Within their own universe they are believed to be omnipotent, or at least impossible-to-completely-destroy embodiments or concepts.
  • Greater Gods: High-level Reality Warpers and that are extremely powerful (capable of destroying or changing anywhere from a large city to a planet at will) and very strong non-reality warpers capable of doing the same thing.
  • Intermediate Gods: Deities at this level are capable of strong but specialized powers such as hydrokinesis, pyrokinesis, etc. without major drawbacks and low level Reality Warpers capable of affecting their immediate area at will.
  • Lesser Gods: Capable of highly specific or little power on their own, or suffer from Power at a Price. However, they may be able to ruthlessly exploit their power or combine it with just being badass enough to make up for it.
  • Demigods: Basically the Badass Normals of the pantheon, making up for their lack of abilities with strength, strategy, and/or planning.
  • Quasideities: Any otherwise normal human, human equivalent, or below without any special powers or training will fall here.

    Templates 
Template for adding a new deity:

God X, God/dess of (Insert Trope Here) (Alternate names/Nicknames, Fan Nickname)

  • An image, if possible. Please use official art or a screenshot for a picture.
  • Rank: This can range from Quasideity, Demigod, Lesser God, Intermediate God, Greater God, to Overdeity, based on representation of power mentioned above.
  • Symbol: An image or icon used to represent the deity.
  • Theme Song: Official song (in other words, no fan music, regardless of quality) that usually is used in affiliation with the character. If the deity is a musician this will most likely be their Signature Song. If possible, give a link for reference, preferably on either a website like Soundcloud or YouTube.
  • Alignment: Good, evil, neutral etc. Forget about The Great Character Alignment Debate here, the Pantheon is one of the few places where you can assign Dungeons & Dragons alignment to characters that don't have alignment system. After all, the Pantheon is based on D&D and is made for fun.
  • For Pokémon deities only:
    • Gender: Defines the gender of the Pokémon; if genderless, it instead defines what gender they identify as.
    • Ability: Provides the Pokémon's ability. If they can Mega Evolve, the new ability is listed as well.
    • Moves: Defines the four moves used by a Pokémon. A Z-Move may also be listed.
  • Portfolio: Tropes associated with the character.
  • Domains: Things that the character has influence over.
  • Herald: Non-ascended loyal character that is from the same series as the ascended character.
  • High Priest: Non-ascended like heralds, but not from the same series, and can serve as a worthy replacement in case something would happen. They can be served as part-time workers in case the originals are busy with some jobs. Co-Godhood is accepted depending on the approval of the originals, usually if the co-deity is from the same series.
  • Followers: Non-ascended characters that are not part of the Pantheon, but would probably worship this character by the fact that they share the ascended character's trope.
  • Relationships between ascended characters go here with your chosen character, it goes something like this:
    • Allies: Members of the Pantheon that are allies, those that share the same values as them and would theoretically be friends with them.
    • Rivals: Members of the Pantheon that are rivals, people who may look at your character with suspicion or a challenge.
    • Enemies: Members of the Pantheon that are foes, those who would see your chosen character as a threat, either on their pespective or yours.
    • Additional Character Relationships: Members of the Pantheon that do not fit in various relationships (examples include Enemy Mine, Vitriolic Best Buds, Teeth-Clenched Teamwork, Headbutting Heroes, Friendly Enemy, Friendly Rival, Just Friends, etc.), allies, rivals, or enemies.
    • Partner: Defines a partnership with an ascended deity and Mon-type. (if any)
    • Feared by/Fears: A deity whom the members of the Pantheon notably fear or are feared by.
    • Respected by/Respects: A deity whom the members of the Pantheon respect or are respected by.
    • Opposed by/Opposes: Not necessarily the same as "Enemies", but this is used for any deity whom the members of the Pantheon directly opposes or is opposed by (basically the opposite of "Respects") terms of certain viewpoints, regardless of alignment.
    • Pitied by/Pities: A deity whom the members of the Pantheon feel pity for or are found pitiable by.
    • Conflicting Opinion: Sometimes, the Deities argue over specific themes and philosophies.
  • Add the Intro. The intro is made up of two trivia, the Ascension Text (or just the Ascension) and The Bio. Both are necessary, but which order you use for them may vary depending on the profile in question. It may be better for one profile to have The Bio first and the Ascension second or vice-versa, although for the most part the order is irrelevant:
    • The Ascension Text: This the story of how the character got into the Pantheon and/or was ascended. There are many ways for this to happen. They may be tricked into it or have simply wandered into the Pantheon, they may have had an already ascended character bring them in, they may already be in the Pantheon (via being another deity's Herald or sharing a trope) and got "promoted", or some combination of the above. Anything is possible in the Pantheon, so use your imagination, but try to incorporate their trope into the story, if possible.
    • The Bio: A brief synopsis on the character's backstory. No need for the character's entire life/production history, but just give enough that those who don't know the character can get an idea of how the character works.
  • Now add some random trivia/facts about events/alignments/moments/fights/friendships/relations etc.
  • And some more trivia/facts.
  • And a couple of more.
    • Note: Standard amount of flavor text for Deities/Characters is 10-15 (15-20 for group profiles) at minimum to 20-25 (30 for group profiles) at maximum.

Template for Dominions profiles:

Place X, Place of (Insert Trope Here) (Alternate names/Nicknames, Fan Nickname)

  • An image, if possible. Please use official art or a screenshot for a picture.
  • Theme Song (Optional): Not important as compared to Deity and Dominion profiles but a notable mention if there is an accompanying song in use with the object.
  • Alignment: Refers to the dominion's role in their story, be it those used by villains or used by the Player Character.
  • Portfolio: Tropes associated with the dominion.
  • Domains: Things that the place has links to.
  • Relationships (Optional): Unless the location has a connection with a specific deity, relationships are optional and may not be required. However, if there are deities linked to the same series as where the dominion is linked to, note them using the relationships, this includes deities that theoretically have interest with said dominion, good or evil otherwise.
  • Add the Intro. Here the introduction of the Dominion is added with some tidbits regarding the origins of its' creation and usage in the story. You can also add what made it popular/iconic/important here.
  • Now add some random trivia/facts about events/alignments/moments/fights/friendships/relations etc.
  • And some more trivia/facts.
  • And a couple of more.
    • Note: Standard amount of flavor text for Dominions is 10 at minimum to 15 at maximum.

Template for Treasure profiles:

The name of the item in here (Alternate names/Nicknames, Fan Nickname)

  • An image, if possible. Please use official art or a screenshot for a picture.
  • Appearance: A shortened description of the item's looks with some notable features also mentioned.
  • Class: Refer to the Treasure Classification System in the Great Treasury.
  • Alignment: Refers to the objects' role in their story, be it those used by villains or used by the Player Character.
  • Theme Song (Optional): Not important as compared to Deity and Dominion profiles but a notable mention if there is an accompanying song in use with the object.
  • Museum Check: A note that says whether the item is viewable by the public.
  • Portfolio: Tropes associated with the item.
  • Domains: Things that the item has links to.
  • Relationships (Optional): Unless the item has a connection with a specific deity, relationships are optional and may not be required. However, if there are deities linked to the same series as where the item is linked to (especially the original owner of the item), note them using the relationships, this includes deities that theoretically have interest with said object, good or evil otherwise.
  • Add the Intro. Here the introduction of the Treasure is added with some tidbits regarding the origins of its' creation and usage in the story. You can also add what made it popular/iconic/important here.
  • Now add some random trivia/facts about events/alignments/moments/fights/friendships/relations etc.
  • And some more trivia/facts.
  • And a couple of more.
    • Note: Standard amount of flavor text for Treasures is 7 at minimum to 12 at maximum.

  • You know Dasher and Dancer, and Prancer and Vixen. Comet and Cupid, and Donner and Blitzen. But do you recall... the most famous reindeer of all? Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeernote , as his name implies, was born with a shiny red nose. So bright in fact, that people would even say it glows. While his parents tried to hide it from public eyes, his unique snout was soon discovered and turned Rudolph into a laughing stock. All of the Other Reindeer in the North Pole mocked and humiliated the poor fawn. They called him cruel names and wouldn't let them play in their reindeer games. Even Santa himself acted incredibly jerkish towards him. Time soon passed, and a terrible storm engulfed the North Pole, not letting up even as Christmas Eve approached. Santa was close to cancelling the holiday altogether... until he realized something. He approached the now-adult Rudolph and asked, "Rudolph with your nose so bright, won't you guide my sleigh tonight?" And he did. With his nose piercing through the fog and mist, Rudolph led the way around the world and allowing Santa to deliver the presents on time. Christmas was saved, and the reindeer changed their attitude. They came to love him and cheered with glee, that Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer would go down in history.
  • Rudolph ascended to the Pantheon alongside Santa during one particular holiday season. A strong winter storm rolled over the entire Pantheon, causing mass concern over whether or not Christmas would come at all. All hope seemed lost, when, hidden in the fog and snow, a red light was spotted. The deities, both young and old, knew instantly who the light belonged to, with the younger ones cheering as Rudolph led Santa's sleigh through the blizzard, delivering presents as they went. Christmas had been saved once more, with Santa and Rudolph being given temples and titles within the Pantheon as thank you for their efforts.
    • Santa and Rudolph share a temple, leading back to Christmas Town, better known as the North Pole. It is a quaint little area, with the Claus' and their elves living on the first castle on the left. note  The reindeer either live in the castle's stables or in the nearby caves. Business goes on as usual in preparations for December 24th, so should one ever visit, don't be surprised by all the elves and reindeer working and practicing.
  • The version of Rudolph seen in the Pantheon hails from a bizarre timeline, where he, the son of Donner, ran away from home and travelled with an aspiring elf dentist named Hermey and Canadian prospector Yukon Cornelius to an island of misfit toys, confronting the Abominable Snow Monster, and eventually saving his family from said monster. However, his appearance tends to fluctuate from time to time; sometimes he looks like an adult and other times he reverts into a young fawn. As well, his origins are often thrown into question. Some claim he was born to Blitzen, and was rivals with his cousin, Arrow, while others say his story was more simplistic. He will transform into these alternate forms occasionally, but he is most comfortable in his stop-motion body. Besides, it allowed for Hermey, Yukon and fellow reindeer Clarice to arrive as Heralds.
  • Rudolph's love for Christmas is an absolute given and he was surprised to learn there were many other deities associated with the holidays living in the Pantheon. Luckily for him, most of them are on good terms with the reindeer. Besides the Santa and Mrs. Claus he's most familiar with, Rudolph came to work alongside the Guardian, Nicolas Saint North, the young idols Hijiri Mochizuki and Eve Santaclaus, the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Yet To Come. They all do their duties to spread Christmas cheer and joy to the Pantheon and to the Worlds, with Rudolph always leading the way with his nose lighting the darkness.
    • Initially, Rudolph had a difficult time trusting Ebeneezer Scrooge, Jack Skellington and The Grinch, due to their previous attempts to take over, sabotage or simply disregard Christmas altogether. Not to mention the latter two having dogs (Zero and Max) that they used in roles similar to reindeer. Then the young buck discovered their histories, learning how all three went through epiphanies and changed their ways to cherish the holiday season. Nowadays, Rudolph will occasionally enlist their help to spread Christmas cheer to the Pantheon... while keeping Jack from stealing the show.
  • One Christmas Eve, Rudolph and Santa met three (former) homeless folks from Japan, named Gin, Hana and Miyuki, and witnessed their story of helping reunite an abandoned baby with her parents. Santa noted the trio's incredible luck on their journey and kindness to the child and decided to give them a place in the Pantheon. Rudolph often stops by the check up on them and even invite them to the North Pole to help in the festivities.
  • Rudolph knows first-hand how it felt being ostracized for his differences and has gone about the Pantheon making friends with others like him. He is close to Naruto Uzumaki since the two were picked on in their childhood before earning the respect of others after saving them. He's also friends with Dumbo, often flying alongside the big-eared elephant during the holidays and helping Santa, The imaginative, Canadian red-head Anne Shirley, and the Fire Nation born circus performer Ty Lee, who took to the reindeer almost instantly, even praising him for using his gifts for good. The more cynical deities often make fun of these friendships, considering the red-nosed reindeer and company a bunch of mismatched misfits and freaks. Rudolph and the others don't really care for their opinions. Friends stick together no matter what, after all. He also became close to Haruka Kotoura and was heartbroken when he heard how she couldn't control her telepathic power, causing major issues. Haruka was surprised to find out that she could read Rudolph's mind despite being an animal. She's actually ok with it because most times, his mind is filled with sugar plums, fairies, Christmas and Clarice.
    • Despite this, Rudolph does have limits. He once heard of the dealings of the Diclonius, Lucy. While he did feel sorry for her at first, once he heard about the end result of her bullying he felt sick to his stomach. He avoids interacting or even being near her.
  • Rudolph's not exactly a big fan of bullies due to his own experiences being picked on. He initially frowned at Shoya Ishida and his bullying of his deaf classmate Shoko Nishimiya, as well as distrusting the young Katsuki Bakugo for him picking on the young Izuku Midoriya, which reminded Rudolph of his cousin Arrow. After hearing about the two bullies going through their own major changes, Rudolph tried to interact with them a bit more. Shoya and Shoko are on good terms with the flying deer, though Bakugo wishes not to be pitied by the deer.
  • His journey to the Island of Misfit Toys and meeting its forgotten inhabitants came back to Rudolph's memory when he encountered an equally bizarre group of sentient toys in the Pantheon; led by a cowboy doll named Woody and a spaceman action figure named Buzz Lightyear. The toys had their own experiences with being lost, forgotten and eventually finding new owners, so they connected quickly with the red-nosed reindeer. They even travelled to the island to help other forgotten toys find new owners to play with and cherish.
  • Not long after ascending, Rudolph found friends in the Pantheon's other resident hoofstock. In particular, the white-tailed deer Bambi, former farm cow-turned-reindeer Annabelle, and the Legendary Pokémon, Xerneas, who is sometimes spotted in the forests surrounding the Arctic, its multi-coloured antlers glowing with the aurora borealis. He was also happy to meet the blue-nosed reindeer Tony Chopper, although he was initially weirded out by his small size and strange appearance. All four have come by the North Pole from time to time, with Bambi bringing his own friends, Thumper the rabbit and Flower the skunk, to enjoy the Christmas festivities. They all, however, know to stay away from the ruthless goat Grogar, who isn't quite up for the holiday joy, happiness and... you know, being nice whatsoever.
    • Speaking of deer, Rudolph encountered a strange woman named ViVi, a member of a K-Pop girl group called LOOΠΔ. She was considered an oddball due to her being an android, not to mention being from Hong Kong. Despite this, Rudolph began talking with her, at the urging of her fellow idols. It turned out that she was a friendly individual, even revealing that her symbolic animal was a deer, which made things all the more perfect. From then on out, Rudolph often stops by to check up on the singer and dancer, even inviting her to the North Pole to hang out. On one such occasion, ViVi came over to Rudolph and called him cute. His response was to leap into the air and shout;
    Rudolph: I'm Cute! I'm Cute! She said I'm cute!
  • There are many rumours surrounding Rudolph. Some claim to have seen Rudolph shooting laser beams out of his shining red nose, while others heard he was hit by a 747 and a flock of seagulls while flying over Barcelona. Rudolph has denied these claims, citing that the instigators probably drank too much eggnog and just hallucinated it. But eyewitnesses were quick to report that the reindeer in Spain was hit mainly by the plane.
  • One time, Rudolph and his friend Frosty the Snowman had a run-in with an evil winter warlock called Winterbolt, who once tried to use them in his plan to destroy Santa. After that, the young reindeer has remained cautious around similar ice-controlling beings, as well as a revived Winterbolt, who continues to haunt the Pantheon. He's wary of Lissandra and The Night's King, both of whom want to plunge the Pantheon into a long and unforgiving winter. To that end, Rudolph found new help with Jon Snow, the former King in the North having a bit of experience in dealing with wights and White Walkers. He also befriended the time-travelling warrior Lucina, following a scenario similar to when the reindeer had to save the New Year.
    • He actually feels sorry for Ice King, however, due to his tragic past. He can't really imagine what it's like to be that insane.
  • Rudolph became good friends with Queen Anna, her older sister Elsa and the living snowman Olaf. The former initially was a tough sell, due to her cryokinetic powers, but then they started talking. He learned of Elsa having to hide her talent under her parent's instructions, just as his parents once did, as well as being ostricized by the public once it was discovered. Elsa often makes it her duty to provide a white Christmas for the Pantheon, and is more than happy to help Rudolph by keeping the worst storms at bay. Anna meanwhile loves to prepare and throw extravagant parties around the holiday season, and she likes to invite Rudolph over to entertain the kids, not to mention giving another reindeer friend to her fiance Kristoff and his faithful caribou Sven. As for Olaf? Rudolph gets along with him because, in a way, he reminds him a great deal of Frosty the Snowman.
  • He once had a nasty run-in with the Wendigo, a flesh-eating monster whose sharp teeth and piercing call reminded the buck of the Abominable Snow Monster of the North. Luckily for the reindeer, he was saved by Braum, who reminded Rudolph of Yukon Cornelius. However, after hearing that the Wendigo was actually a girl who was forced to eat her dead sister's body, Rudolph was both saddened and disgusted. He also stays clear of the. Rudolph is also incredibly disturbed by SCP-4666, due to its sadistic brutality towards naughty children, Spooky the ghost, who murdered Santa on one occasion, and Robot Santa, who often attacks people on Christmas regardless if they're naughty or nice.
  • Can also be found in Contempt | Sadness.

Here’s Antasma!

Antasma, God of Monstrous Bats (The Bat King)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/antasma.png
  • Intermediate God
  • Symbol: His mask and fanged grin
  • Theme Songs: Antasma's Theme, The Final Antasma Battle (for fighting)
  • Alignment: Chaotic Evil
  • Portfolio: Bat Out of Hell, working with other villains, Vampire Vords, Dream Walker, Thinking Up Portals, acting as a pastiche of past Mario & Luigi villains, the ability to create a Dream Within a Dream, Emotion Eater, Big Bad Wannabe
  • Domains: Nightmares, Bats, Villainy, Darkness
  • High Priests: The Squeeklies
  • Herald: Dreamy Mario
  • Followers: Viamat, Ratbat
  • Allies: Fawful, Cackletta, Barbatos, Vaermina, Freddy Krueger, Nightmare, Wizeman, Ember McLain, The Dazzlings
  • Enemies: Mario, Luigi, Peach, BOWSER, Dimentio, The Shroobs, The Shadow Queen, The Dark Star, Galeem and Dharkon, Batty Koda, Riku, Kirby, The ENTIRE House of Betrayal, Dream Of The Endless, Ysera, NiGHTS, Ned Needlemeyer, Princess Luna, Batman and the ascended members of The Justice League, Nagash, The Mane Six, Adora and Catra, Horde Prime
  • Antasma was at one time just a normal bat, but by somehow feeding off of the nightmares of a Pi'illo he gained the power to become the nightmare being he is now.
  • Antasma's ascension was literally like a Bat Out of Hell. After his demise, Antasma conjured a dream portal in order to escape from his afterlife, and eventually found his way to the Pantheon through the dream world. Many were shocked to see the being they heard about from Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach and Bowser, but he was granted his position in the Pantheon when he trapped a few deities in a nightmare and tormented them until they were saved by Mario.
  • Ever since the incident where Bowser betrayed him, Antasma has been seeing red. Bowser is at the very top of his list of enemies because of it, and Antasma vows to get even. Anyone who crosses paths with him is in for a world of hurt. He'd also like to get revenge on Mario and Luigi, but first things first...
    • Upon learning of his ascension, Bowser simply welcomed him to try, and he has his minions ready in case things somehow go downhill for him when they inevitably clash. Luigi, completely defying his usual cowardly behavior, was determined to fight against Antasma once more, but those who know the reason behind his determination simply smiled as this was due to the desire to protect his brother in the Dream World from the plot of Antasma and Bowser.
    • Bowser's betrayal has resulted in him opposing everyone in the entire House of Betrayal, regardless of their alignment. He finds those who would betray their allies, no matter the reason, disgusting. To many’s surprise, Antasma has came out and stated that he was NOT planning on betraying Bowser, something the Koopa King doesn’t believe in the slightest.
  • Antasma's true power is awakened when he is inside dreams. He takes on a larger and far more imposing form, and is capable of putting any Dream Walker that arrives to sleep, warping them to a nightmare realm where he can endlessly torment them until they either die or find a way out. The Grand United Alliance of Evil has taken an interest, but know he won’t be able to join due to his overwhelming hatred of Bowser, who is part of Melkor’s alliance. The Inducers of Nightmares are also interested in him but know that he’s far too focused on getting revenge on Bowser to be a member just yet.
    • Due to this, Antasma looks forward to the chance to attempt this on Riku. Freddy Krueger, Nightmare and Wizeman have decided to help him with this and they are keeping their plans against Riku a secret so he doesn’t have a chance to prepare and ask his allies for help against them.
  • Should Antasma find himself hurt, he can summon his signature snack - Antasmunchies - so that he may eat them for a power boost. He can also sleep upside-down (he's a bat, after all) and allow the Antasmunchies to heal him. Anyone else who eats an Antasmunchie simply falls asleep and suffers nightmares.
  • He can also summon his music speaker and play the Dreambeats to put anyone in the vicinity to sleep, though covering one's ears can help them stay awake. Ember McLain and The Dazzlings have taken an interest and are willing to help him, especially if he begins desiring to take the approach of mind control with his music.
  • Some people avoid talking to him, as they don't like his constant screeching during his monologues. When asked about it, he simply responded with this.
    Antasma: “Vhat’s vrong vith the vay I speak? SKREEEP!”
  • Being another deified bat, Antasma considers Batty Koda a rival. The latter is actually afraid of Antasma.
  • Much like the rest of the deities from his home universe, he is absolutely disgusted by the Shroobs and prefers to stay away from them. Given what they are, this is hardly surprising, especially since their goals aren't that different than those of Nagash. Antasma has been opposing both the Shroobs and Nagash.
  • Hates Galeem for turning him into a spirit and using him as a pawn. He knows Dharkon would’ve done the same if given the chance and they have become his most personal enemies behind Bowser.
  • Will sometimes sing this when in battle.
  • "I vish... TO CONQUER THE VORLD!"

Breaking out of my break for this one draft, but here it is... my Brainiac Rework draft at the moment...

He is an alien invader who has an insane addiction to collecting knowledge and keeping it to himself and only to himself. He does this by invading worlds with his armada, army and the technology he collected throughout the cosmos, finding the most advanced city in that particular world, shrinking it down to keep in a bottle or jar contained and then destroying the world, not caring of the number of races, cultures and civilizations he rendered extinct (one of those worlds being Krypton in some iterations). He then keeps these cities, settlements and it's inhabitants for himself and studies them for some time, wanting to learn about their effectiveness and how to better himself from their physiology. Oh, and he's a notable sworn nemesis of Superman and Supergirl.

I'm particularly looking for suggestions relating to alien invaders, those who have destroyed worlds and races and civilizations that Brainiac may take some kind of interest in. Regardless, any other suggestions and ideas are welcome.

Merry Christmas.

@ Crimson: The Nameless God has a habit of collecting people trapping them within his domain of The Nameless Island. Typically, they come from those duped into a mission of some kind where they would be lost at sea. All the locations that can be visited there are based on the memories of those he claimed. As he can attest, he's taken many different things from many different people.

One of the early missions in Destiny involves delving into the World's Grave, a very spacious archive of all the worlds and civilizations the Hive has encountered and destroyed (and one offhand comment in trying to analyze it suggests it breaks the Bekenstein Bound). The Hive, headed by Oryx and his sisters Savathun and Xivu Arath, are basically on a galactic dawinistic warpath to extinguish all life and light until they are the only one's remaining.

And I know most of the House of Knowledge has been mentioned, but would there be anything special to be said for Hermaeus Mora, one of the House's guardians? While mainly known as a broker for knowledge, and passes himself as all knowing to many, he's still a seeker of it and out to genuinely know everything.

Hayleen Dreamsmasher Smith-Fischer, Goddess of Bratty Teenage Daughters (Hayley for short)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Hayley_Smith_3031.png
  • Votes: 4(Super WIKI 1, Crimson Shark, Excessive Menace, Vengeful Bale)
  • Date of ascension: 27 December(repost 25 December)
  • House: Offsprings (House of Family)
  • Demigoddess
  • Symbol: Her headband
  • Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
  • Portfolio: Black Sheep and Bratty Teenage Daughter, Hypocritical Granola Girl, Lazy Straw Vegetarian, Shares Many Of Her Dad's Flaws, Desires To Be Noticed By Her Parents, Teens Are Short, Soapbox Sadie, Bourgeois Bohemian
  • Domains: Bohemian Lifestyles, Teen Rebels, Sloth, Hippies
  • Herald: Her husband Jeff Fischer
  • Interests: Sigmund Freud
  • Respects: Greg Universe
  • Complicated relationship with: Stan Smith (her father)
  • Allies: Francine and Steve Smith (her mother and brother), 90s Dude, Mina, Snoop Dogg, Reuben, Rotor Walrus, Popplio
  • Vitriolic Best Buds with: Roger Smith, Klaus Heisler
  • Enemies: Eric Cartman, Mandark
  • Opposes: The Mind Control sub-house
  • Opposed by: Ned Flanders, Vernon Dursley
  • Hayleen Dreamsmasher Smith-Fischer is, if the middle name didn't make it clear, often the bugbear of her dad. While Stan is a strict, "good old boy"-minded dad, she's the Black Sheep of being a lazy bohemain, hippie and vegetarian. Once they were alike, but now she and her dad often butt heads. However they're still family and still share a number of personality traits, despite being the Bratty Teenage Daughter of the family.
  • Her feelings towards her dad are certainly complex, as half the time she's rebellious and the other half she wants his approval. The most noticeable comparison they make are their shared flaws of hypocrisy and selfishness. The fact that she dated a body double suggests an Electra complex, which confirmed many of Freud's suspicions towards her. He hopes to be a therapist for not just Hayley but the Smiths as a whole.
  • It's possible that Stan isn't her biological father, as Francine got cold feet and had an affair around the time of her conception. However Stan ultimately doesn't care, as she's still his daughter where it counts and decided not to check for the paternity. In private he talks about it with Daeron, who had to deal with the stigma of ambiguous paternity. However his and his own dad's dynamic is flipped with him being the serious one, and his dad being bourgeouis. Hayley would probably be offended by any comparison to Aegon the Unworthy.
  • Hayley was a proud vegetarian, and likes to show it off in the House of Food. However the actual vegetarians in the pantheon don't think highly of this as she's snuck a lot of meat into her diet, and given she skims ham off the sandwich at deliveries it seems she's abandoned this. As part of her job working at a deli, Hayley has been delivering meals to and from the Food sub-house. She's enjoyed the company of her new co-worker Reuben, given his mellow personality.
  • Hayley's sexual appetite can prove voracious. Besides the Electra complex, she's at least bicurious and even was willing to sleep with a CIA agent who was in the body of a koala. While she does tend to check out the lust sub-houses, Hayley is married to Jeff now and probably isn't going to go behind his back nowadays. Many in the House of Love are relieved she's taken because it might lead to her being dumped. And her reaction is terrifying, to the point the rampage is what you'd fear from the the Yandere Squad.
  • Eric Cartman has a vitriolic hatred of Hayley because he hates all hippies and has personally killed many. While a flawed, selfish and bratty daughter, Hayley is a way better person than Cartman and is regularly disgusted by how low he can sink. Mandark is less evil than Cartman, but he shares much of Cartman's contempt for Hayley. Mainly because he is frustrated with his own hippie parents.
  • While they don't hate her persay, Ned Flanders and Vernon Dursley don't like Hayley. Vernon because he's an utter bore, and Ned because he's less of a bore, but doesn't care for hippie culture and teenage rebelliousness. Hayley suspects that he's rebelling against his beatnik parents, which are two of the only people he hates. They're different as night and day, but in this one instance regarding their parent-child dynamic perhaps not.
  • Contrasting her dynamic with the fathers mentioned above, Hayley is rather chill around Greg Universe due to his open-mindedness and generally mellow, chill personality. Greg is more ambivalent towards her, and wishes she would work on her personal flaws. He was pleasently surprised to learn she's a great singer, and has played a more "traditional" 1950s persona with making pies for contests.
  • A consummate stoner, she was overjoyed to meet and smoke weed with Snoop Dogg. Mina joined, not to smokenote  but to just chill, and given her mellow personality Hayley liked her. Sometimes she chills out with 90s Dude as well.
  • She Used to Be a Sweet Kid, however everything changed when she witnessed a seal being clubbed to death on news. Naturally, she is very protective of the seal deities in the pantheon. She seems to see some of her brother in Rotor Walrus. Her issues with the Mind Control sub-house are likely driven because of Stan using "Operation Daycare". That almost led to her committing Patricide as a flaw of the mind control, and probably fuels her issues.
  • Having been bratty in her younger years, Bulma has hopes that given enough time, she'll mature though hopes she still keeps a bit of her rebellious streak in the future. Interestingly, there is a future where thanks to time travel shenanigans she ended up living an unhappy life waiting for Jeff for 60 years. Fortunately that future was aborted, hopefully including apes eventually taking over.
    • The millionaire Hayley could've ended up got killed before she could choose him because of Roger being Roger. Hayley would be more pissed at him had Jeff not returned much sooner than 60 years.

Dudley, Divine Representative of Guardian Angels

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/the_bishops_wife.png
  • Potential House: Angels and Guardians and Protectors
  • Intermediate God
  • Symbol: An empty stocking or himself decorating a Christmas tree
  • Alignment: Lawful Good
  • Portfolio: Guardian Angel sent to answer the prayers of a bishop, has to leave once he has completed his task and erasing everyone’s memories of him in the process, Love Triangle with Julia and Bishop Henry Brougham
  • Domains: Angels, Guidance
  • High Priest: Clarence
  • Allies: George Bailey, Aziraphale, Pit, The Love The Moves the Stars, Captain Gregg and Lucy Muir, Kenny McCormick, TK and Kari
  • Enemies: Frollo
  • Respected by: The Guardians and Protectors sub-house
  • Unsure opinion on: Dark Pit
  • Dudley is an angel who was brought to Earth in human form to assist a bishop who prayed for guidance. That bishop, Henry Brougham, had been working for months on the plans for an elaborate new cathedral which he hopes will be paid for primarily by a wealthy, stubborn widow, but was losing sight of his family and of why he became a churchman in the first place. Henry was skeptical, then annoyed when the angel ingratiated himself into the household as his assistant, and worse, won the attention of Henry's long-suffering and kindly wife, Julia, whom he found himself attracted to much to Henry’s jealousy. When Henry wanted to know why his cathedral plans were derailed, Dudley reminded him that he prayed for guidance rather than a new building. As soon as his mission was fulfilled and knowing that Julia loved her husband, Dudley left with all memories of him erased.
  • Moments after he left, he spotted an envelope that was dropped on the ground containing a letter regarding his invitation to a place called the Pantheon. When he was brought up there, it turns out that he was brought there because the subhouse of Angels was looking for a contender for the Guardian Angel trope and felt that Dudley is a perfect fit for the title, to which he ended up accepting.
  • One of the angels who helped with Dudley’s arrival in the Pantheon was an overcoat-clad angel named Arizaphale, whom Dudley would regularly hang out with whenever he isn’t tasked in helping other mortals back in his home universe. They can be seen talking about their experiences in their respective Earths, though Dudley is also a bit surprised with how Arizaphale would befriend a fallen angel named Crowley. Another notable angel that he has gotten along with is Pit, who was tasked to watch over mankind as a service to Palutena. Though he is unsure what to make of Dark Pit, who was originally Pit’s evil counterpart before having a mind of his own and instead became amicable rivals with Pit.
  • It’s no surprise that he would meet up with George Bailey, whom Dudley has some respect for given that George also has a guardian angel who helped him during the Christmas season when he was struggling with his problems regarding his family. George also appreciates the fact that Clarence was chosen as Dudley’s high priest.
  • If his interactions with Henry and Julia’s daughter suggest anything, he seems to be pretty good with children. Dudley has respect for Kenny McCormick after hearing about how the latter, at one point, served as a guardian angel and has pitied the boy’s situation in having died multiple times. TK and Kari of the Adventure DigiDestined are also fascinated with him as he reminds them of the angel Digimon who often protects them.
  • Another human deity that Dudley is on good terms with is Lucy Muir. Dudley is unnerved with her romance with a ghost captain, though that’s only because it reminded him of his own romance with the bishop’s wife, which he abandoned after knowing that she loved her husband.
  • Given his role as a Guardian Angel, the Guardians and Protectors sub house has nothing but respect for Dudley. He is also appreciated by the Love that Moves the Stars, particularly with how Dudley managed to help out the bishop and his family, and the angel, in turn, reciprocated said feelings back.
  • While Dudley is willing to answer the calls of people on a case-on-case basis, he is also aware of some who wanted to use him for more malevolent actions, notably Judge Frollo, a crazed religious judge who committed horrible actions under the excuse of enforcing God’s will.

@Donnie Johnny Bravo once had a Guardian Angel on one episode that seems to be a reference to It's A Wonderful Life in terms of the plot. Outside of that, [tup] for your Christmas profile.

Speaking of Christmas profiles, New London is somewhat finished, however, I could use a few interactions for other deities. Consider this the bleakest Christmas profile for the holiday, then again there was a Christmas update back then so, still keeping the tradition heh.

Just a few ideas on pyro-based and cold-based deities and I'm done.

New London, The Divine City Engulfed By Neverending Snow

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/city_of_new_london_2.jpg
New London in a bird's eye view
  • Appearance: A city surrounded by ice in a crater, with a large generator in the middle of it.
  • Theme Songs: Main Theme
  • Alignment: Lawful Neutral at best
  • Portfolio: A world faced with a catastrophe that leads to more than 90% of the world frozen, forcing remaining cities to be powered by steam-based technology, a world where technological process in the ninetees are halted, tormented by many ice storms, governing shifts between Order and Discipline or resort to Faith and Spiritual Strength
  • Domains: Winter, Survival, Isolation, Sacrifices, Order and Faith
  • Neighboring Areas: Winterhome, Tesla City, The City of Sanctuary, City of New Manchester, Site 113/New Liverpool, and the Legacy Ark
  • Possible Links with: Insert Name Here
  • Interest with: The Weather Trio
  • Banned Deities: Anyone affiliated with the cold, Tenjian of The Seven, The Enclave
  • 1888. The world has changed into a post-apocalyptic state where more than a large portion of the Earth is a frozen wasteland. Storms that decrease the temperature up to the negative degrees ravage the world and few cities live, only to crumble at either the sight of an oncoming storm, or mismanagement of the governing people. Among those cities that are surviving through the ordeal is New London, one of the very few safe havens of the still, cold world. The objective is to survive amidst the chaotic environment whilst handling the rising demands and needs of the population. Due to changing leaders and various scenarios that pop up around the city, there is no shortage of breaks nor slight reprieve and coupled with various laws that can be implemented, the city is often in a changing landscape, either at the brink of death or struggling at the bare minimum of resources. Yet in these dark times, hope still permeates through the city by its inhabitants. For The City Must Survive.
  • Those who ponder how the city operates despite the bleak setting will be left with surprise with how resilient the people are when it comes to tenuous survival. The City's location is located underneath a large crater-like hole, otherwise known as the Pit, where people are transported from the surface into the steampunk driven city which houses survivors of the original frost. It is also powered by a large Heat Generator Tower that is within the center of the city, powering it until it runs out of fuel or in some cases, become unrepairable by engineers. Debates to whether the Pit is man-made or natural are supported by evidence that it may be both as the location of New London may have been within a forest and that an icey wall surrounds the city, giving it the crater-like appearance. With this in mind, it would make sense as to why this location was suitable to house what can only the last vestige of human civilization.
  • Originally, the city's main objective is to survive the strong winter, lead by none other than the Captain of New London. As time progresses and more refugees arrive at the Pit, the city's own leader may opt to apply stringent laws to make sure that enough resources is distributed to the citizens and the generator that is supplying heat towards the populace. That is where the challenge starts to ramp up as simple chaotic scenarios may throw an upheaval and put the city in danger, to compensate, laws such as a totalitarian-esque system can be implemented to put order in place, but for the religious-oriented, may prefer a theocratic system that encourages worship to place devotion over hope. The setting, already dangerous enough as it is, is not without the possibility that both sides can go over the extreme, either putting the city into a system similar to dictatorship (with the possibility of a revolt) or putting the Captain as a icon of religious worship. Whatever the case is, the main idea remains: survive the harsh world, no matter the cost.
  • Entering the realm of New London will put the visitors to experience cases of frostbite or even severe cases of hypothermia for the uninitiated. The world has the warmest temperature of about -20 degrees celsius, but beyond that is nearly impossible, as it will only get colder from then on. Dependence on heat will become a necessity and sometimes, a simple presence of fire will not be enough to calm the masses, which is why storms are heavily feared, as the massive drop in temperature will send everyone into a deep freeze. It is this reason why the Heat Generators are the key point to the city's survival, alongside a few sacrifices to some of the workers to stay behind and keep the generators open.
  • The city's populace often has disdain towards visitors or refugees, of those who were originally the first people to take refuge in the city beforehand. With resources at a mostly all-time low and the necessity to be active on jobs just to maintain the life they are living in, it would make sense. Still, the city has made several remarks against the prospect of adding other people in the city as having more people may result in short rations and low space for housing which in turn, will result into a revolt for not meeting the citizen's demands. Things will go downhill unless order will be restored by then.
  • Past the Pit of the city are various human locations, some of which have been maintained and independent while others were short lived, suffering gruesome fates due to poor leadership among the higher ranks. Cities such as Winterhome, Tesla City and even New Manchester all have the same issues with their leadership. Tesla City became desolated after a revolt broke out following Nikola Tesla choosing more inhumane methods for scientific progress, New Manchester was already collapsing prior to its discovery, but worst of all was Winterhome, a military outpost which was turned into a settlement following the great frost. With the rising population, one of the military captains took charge and turned it into an authoritarian state, with the damage to the generator being the final straw that resulted into rebellion and forced the next captain to evacuate as many people as possible before a storm would hit the already broken city. Despite the grim fates, other areas such as the Legacy Arks, a project meant to save the remaining vestige of plant life, New Liverpool, which was one of the first areas deployed following the slow cooling of the world, Sanctuary, a city that became a settlement for the poor, and Outpost 11, an outpost deployed by New London only to become independent later on, shows that other human areas are possible, it will however be an ardous task.
  • Pantheon visitations are few and far between, probably due to the harsh weather conditions and the strict guidelines when it comes to visiting the city as the people within are very harsh considering the world they live in. While few can visit the city, the other portions of the Pantheon, specifically the House of Nature has studied what really happened to the surrounding world past New London and how the winter came all of a sudden. Few evidences can be alluded to two theories: mass volcanic eruptions creating volcanic winter on a massive scale or perhaps a large meteor that place the Earth out of orbit. Even with all the evidence, these theories cannot be proven as the other factors such as carbon dating are out of the question due to the oncoming winter.
    • Speaking of Pantheon inhabitants, many people have beefs following the news that New London was given a new entrance. Outside the issue of too much population, the presence of ice-based deities have led the population into a revolt, forcing the Captain of the city to ban their presence. No one knows who first triggered this scenario but some may have noticed that Tenjian of The Seven went out of the door leading to New London few days ago and authorities found that one body was frozen to death alongisde a few houses being frozen to a small degree. He has denied all claims but with the actions of the City towards certain Pantheon deities, few are willing to agree that he had something to do with the ban.
    • On the other hand, totalitarian forces such as the Enclave have been scouting New London's presence through the use of visitor proxies who would disguise as regular visitors only to spy on the London population. However, one visitor was caught staying within the generator for too long and spilled the beans to the police, leading to the execution and discovery that the Enclave was spying on their place. Since the population hates the idea of a dictatorship, the city also banned other tyrannical leaders/forces into city premises following the Enclave's reveal.
  • Despite cynicism towards the Pantheon, the Captain was at one point, ordered by the Pantheon leaders to meet up at a leadership convention where certain people proposed new ideas to improve New London's environmental problem, which at first he was hesitant to follow. When one of the Pantheon leaders brought up the Weather Trio, the Captain then took interest as the Pantheon leaders described how the Pokemon can aid in fixing their city's hazards. After arriving back to New London, the Captain has reserved thoughts to use the Weather Trio but the people's lives matter first before fixing the environment.
  • Possible links between the City and Insert Name Here were thought out as the Captain is unnamed and without any facial/body descriptions. Some believe that the latter may be responsible for all the changes of the city, whether it be implementation of new laws, management of housing and rations or even changes to the local populace. Still, some people may use the opportunity to manage the city to their behest, but be prepared, as the weather and other scenarios may test even the most staunch of captains to a certain extent.

Just a short progress for my profile.

Sakie Satou, Goddess of Romantic Succubi

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sakie_key.jpg
  • Potential House: Love/Otherness
  • Lesser Goddess(?)
  • Symbol: Silhouette of her in a succubus outfit
  • Theme Song:
  • Alignment: Neutral Good
  • Portfolio: Succubus, Friendly Teacher, Intentionally Covering Their Beauty, Causing Others to be Aroused by Accident, Hot Teacher, Wanting to be Loved, Secretly Horny, Loves Only Takahashi, Cursed Beauty
  • Domains: Demihuman, School, Monsters,
  • High Priest: Anatasia
  • Allies: Rias Gremory, Morrigan and Lilith Aensland
  • Enemies: Judge Frollo
  • Sakie Satou is a succubus, a demihuman with the ability to emit an aphrodisiac effect that is always on. Because of that, she lived most of her life trying to dampen its effects by dressing as homely as possible and with a doom love life. But that all changed when she met fellow teacher Tetsuo Takahashi who is one of the few males to withstand her aphrodisiac effect. Because of that, and because of his kind nature, she became more willingly to act more "sexy" around him.
  • Was given the Succubus in Love title since she ended up falling in love with Takahashi. Which hilariously caused her to fantasized about him.
  • Even though there are those who can resist her succubus charm, Sakie still chooses to dress homely so as to not disrupt the Pantheon. Though, others would argue her "homely appearance" is still sexy.

[up][up] What would Jadis the White Witch think about New London and vice-versa. For context, Jadis is an egotistical, maniacal witch who destroyed her world by using the Forbidden Word because she lost to her sister and then, by coming to Narnia, she decided to curse the place into experiencing a harsh Eternal Winter to signify her cruel and unforgiving reign.

[up][up][up]Okay. Ice is banned. But what about fire-users? For exploitation or for reverence.

[down]And given Elsa has abdicated the throne to Anna, I don't think she'd do well there anyway.

@Hamana

Elsa nearly doomed Arendale to an eternal winter due to her powers, especially after she ran away from home.

@Donnie

Luka is the child of a human man and angel woman, so he's a human/angel hybrid.

Here's more movement proposals:
