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.

@RJ: Here's the Shredder info and other stuff

Shadow Weaver goes up today and Simon is close to ascending too, any last feedback for those two?

[[folder: Shadow Weaver]]

Shadow Weaver, Goddess of Affectionate Head Gestures (Light Spinner)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/shadowweaverrenderhq.png
As Light Spinner 
Unmasked 
  • Potential House: Love: Other
  • [tup]s: 4 (Crimson Shark, Sailor Venus 372, Excessive Meance, RJ Clovis 93)
  • Intermediate Goddess. Demigoddess without her magic.
  • Symbol: Her mask.
  • Theme Song: Light Spinner
  • Alignment: Chaotic Neutral with some Evil leanings. Formerly Neutral Evil.
  • Portfolio: Affectionate Gesture to the Head, Darth Vader Clone, Faux Affably Evil, Power Parasite, Chronic Backstabbing Disorder, Hazy-Feel Turn
  • Domains: Abuse, Mothers, Magic, Darkness
  • Allies: None due to her unreliability as an ally herself, but has made a few somewhat positive connections
  • Enemies: Horde Prime, Skeletor, Adam/He-Man, Voldemort, Tirek, Grogar, The Magical Girl Guardians and Four Magicians, Azula, Ragyo Kiruin, Queen Beryl, Frollo, Embryo, Dormammu, Joker, Atsuko Karagi.
  • Opposed by: Rapunzel, Quasimodo
  • Complicated Relationship: Catra and Adora
  • Banned from: The House of Magic and The House of Mothers.
  • Shadow Weaver was once a respected magic teacher on the city of Mystacor in the planet of Etheria, but when the Horde began its move on Etheria, she grew desperate to find powerful enough magic to combat them. Utilizing dark magic she plotted to tap into the full power of this forbidden source, but was banished from Etheria for it after she left in frustration over the Etherians opposing her methods. She joined the Horde to get back at her former allies, serving as Hordak's second-in-command after proving her power to him. Over the years she was in charge of raising the Horde's many soldiers, two of them which were Catra and Adora.
    • After Adora left the Horde to become the Rebellion's hero and champion, Weaver grew desperate to get her back. However her obsession with recovering Adora cost her many things, including her position in the Horde, which Hordak gave to Catra after the latter's higher success in operations and then to Entrapta. After trying to rebel against Hordak, she was defeated, depowered and imprisoned until she tricked Catra to free her, allowing Weaver to rejoin Etheria (very, very reluctantly however) so as to help take down not just the Etherian Horde but the larger scale Galactic Horde, hoping to obtain the mystical Heart of Etheria to do so and manipulating recently crowned Queen Glimmer for that purpose. Utimately she met her end when she sacrificed her life to allow Catra and Adora save Etheria from Horde Prime.
  • Her ascension had a lack of much in the way of fanfare. Given her treacherous nature, it was quite clear that she wouldn't have much in the way of allies or even amicable relationships. With her ascension also came the return of her powers in their normal state, though without the Black Garnet around to serve as an empowerment source much to her disappointment. Her temple is considered the Black Sheep of her Hall, with her actions being very much abusive and cruel to her step-daughters and her not feeling much in the way of remorse for it. She's been plotting to fully recover her old positions of influence, but is trying to do so by slowly leeching off sources of magic to grow more powerful.
  • Her relationship with her adopted daughters is currently very, very complicated. Though she's shown some semblance of a desire to mend fences, her pride and refusal to see the wrong in her actions means that a full reconciliation is out of the question and probably will be for a long time. Adora and Catra, in spite of having mourned her death, still harbor many mixed and conflicting feelings towards Weaver especially since they've made it clear to her that Weaver's days of manipulating them are over. Weaver hopes that one day they "come" around and listen to her, though feels deep down it will not.
    • On the other hand, Adam has had to deal with other incarnations of Weaver and seeing one as abusive didn't leave any good or positive impressions, as such Adam has sworn to defeat her if she ever tries to act on her desires to conquer Etheria or become more powerful at everyone else's expense. They do occasionally team up, mainly because the threat of Horde Prime is at large greater than hers. That said, she is very interested in learning the secrets of Castle Grayskull, which she learnt from Skeletor could lead to a source of magic and power greater than even the Heart of Etheria, which she once sought out to strengthen herself. She plots to eventually find a way to access these secrets for herself.
    • Since Horde Prime ascended before she did and has established a presence in the Panhteon, she's once again came to oppose him, especially with the abundance of allies that he now has. Weaver has thought of once again teaming up with Adora and her allies so as to stop him, even if the presence of other parties makes her help redundant to Prime's enemies, which has made her create a plan B to seek out other allies should she be unable to earn Adora's and Catra's favor in the fight against Horde Prime. Skeletor was initially eager to ally with Shadow Weaver, but her lack of cooperativeness cut short any good will between them and resulted in the two becoming enemies, especially since both desire to obtain the power of Castle Grayskull.
  • She has found some common grounds with Mother Gothel, Gothel used her adopted (and kidnapped) daughter as means of obtaining the power of the golden flower to keep herself eternally young, while also neglecting an unfavorite daughter of theirs due to not seeing any value to them. Particularly both of their neglected daughters fell under a path of villainy before they were able to be redeem themselves. Though they aren't really allies, their similar mindsets and actions allowed understandings to happen between the two.
  • As he was also exiled for being power hungry and had an equal outlook on enemies before they had their Face–Heel Turn, she found common ground with Ultraman Belial who desired the power of the Plasma Spark, his planet's core, not unlike Shadow Weaver. Belial found her personality and goals to be interesting, especially given how much their pasts were similar to each other's. Their attempts to use their children for their goals also furthered this mutual interest in each other's actions. Both have thought up of allying with each other for the goal of becoming more powerful and getting revenge for being belittled and exiled from their points of view, though their differing end goals, conflicting personalities and Weaver's ocasional morally grounded moments put a stop to that.
  • While she was a very abusive mother, she seemed to harbor some degree of genuine love for Adora and Catra, this has made her any abusive parent who took their abuse to levels she herself wouldn't take, though even some others weren't the subject of much scorn either. Among the hated parents was Ragyo Kiryuin, as while she had initially aligned with the Horde tried to kill Catra herself, Weaver drew the line at knowing that Ragyo sold out mankind to the Life Fibers for her selfish benefit and sexually abused her daughter, Satsuki which Weaver found to be really depraved acts.
  • Professor Venomous understood fully how much her ambitions ended up shaping her, and even more how it became a source of conflict that caused them to abuse their children and use them for their own goals, though in Weaver's case it didn't backfire on her directly. Venomous guilt over his actions did become a point of contention between the two as it seems Weaver doesn't actually feels any remorse and she hasn't shown any outward remorse for her own actions and abusive behavior, which has soured Venomous' view of her. Weaver herself doesn't thinks too highly of Venomous considering how it was his own fault that he lost his powers, while she has stated that she lost hers due to Catra (despite the latter only doing so because Weaver was being abusive to her).
  • Her powers and ambition got her banned from the House of Magic, especially given the possible chances of her growing too powerful if allowed to find an appropriate source of magical power to strengthen her own. She felt frustrated by this, as she had desired to explore the many kinds of magic that the Pantheon had to offer and was sorely disappointed to find out she could not even come close to the House lest she be stripped of what little power she has or worse. For now she intends to seek out magical deities in other houses, seeing if it would be possible to drain their magic instead for her own use, a few "allies" she's been thinking of having are Voldemort and Sauron, given their knowledge and expertise in dark magic, though that Sauron is allies with Horde Prime dissuades her a bit. She eventually dropped the idea of allying with Voldemort once he proved too evil and ambitious for her to team up with, ever since she hopes to find a better candidate to ally with.
    • For her attempts to tap into dark magic and hoard all magic in the Universe for herself, she's become an enemy to the gaurdians of the House of Pantheon/Magic. Particularly the Magical Girls as Weaver's control of dark magic could put her dangerously close to cooperating with enemies of their such as Beryl, Bad End Kingdom's Joker, and even Chaos. Though Weaver herself has stated that she has no interest in such foes, particularly because she knows they desire the complete destruction of everything in existence as their end goals, which she opposes even at her most selfish. She's recently grown interested in the magic that Madoka has, given her godly power could give Weaver what she's been seeking out the most, much to the concern of her enemies and opposers.
    • She's also been banned from the House of Mothers for her abusive treatment of her adopted daughters and her manipulations of Glimmer after the latter had lost her mother and was forced to take the throne while orphaned, using her emotional vulnerability to tempt her into tapping onto darker magic and furthering her own goals and agenda. Unlike the other ban, Weaver has mocked this one, clarifying that she will find a way around it. The House of Children also ended up making it clear that they did not accept her and she would not be let in for her abuse as well.
  • She found herself being enemies with Embryo for his capacity to Mind Control magic users, his treatment of women has also creeped her out. Due to her powers and ability to control the powerful Heart of Etheria, Weaver's worried that Embryo might target Adora and so has taken efforts to engineer a way to defeat him should he ever try that.
  • Has faced disdain from both Quasimodo and Rapunzel, as Quasimodo had to deal with being locked up, belittled and abused by his adoptive father, Frollo (who also killed his loving biological mother) and suffered a lot because of it; while Rapunzel was held hostage and raised by Mother Gothel solely to get the power of her hair and keep herself young forever at the expense of Rapunzel's well-being, not unlike Weaver who kept Adora and Catra under an abusive parentage for her own benefit. Weaver herself pays little attention, viewing both as beneath notice and instead focusing on others who she considers serious threats to her.
    • Frollo himself views Weaver's use of dark magic as satanic witchcraft and has come to oppose her after learning about her. Weaver views Frollo as not much of a threat and therefore prefers to ignore him entirely.

Simon Laurent, God of Rejecting Reality

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/simon_laurent.png
  • Potential House: Mentalities
  • [tup]s: 4 (Excessive Menace, Crimson Shark, Crownless Mimic, Shonen Trash 98)
  • Demigod.
  • Symbol: His large line of numbers
  • Theme Song: You're No Person
  • Alignment: Neutral Evil. Formerly Lawful Neutral.
  • Portfolio: I Reject Your Reality, Psychopathic Manchild, Never My Fault, Tragic Villain, Freudian Excuse Is No Excuse, Fantastic Racism against non-humans, Blondes Are Evil, Jerkass, Would Hit a Girl, Knight of Cerebus, Go Mad from the Revelation, Cruel and Unusual Death
  • Domains: Mentality, Rejection, Madness
  • Allies: Colonel McCullough, Gaston, Shou Tucker, Bete Noire, Amon, Yennefer, Barney Stinson, Hal Stewart/Tighten, Vlad Masters, Claude Frollo, Hans Westergard, Inanna, Gideon Graves
  • Commonality Connection: Malware, Koba
  • Enemies: The Cartoon Network Deities (especially Finn Mertens, The Undertale Deities, Caesar, Bojack Horseman, The Pines Twins, Johnny Lawrence, Trixie Lulamoon, John Kramer/Jigsaw, The Phantom Thieves of Heart.
  • Simon Laurent was once a normal kid who happened to stumble on the Infinity Train, he befriended one of its inhabitants, a talking Cat, but was abandoned by it when a monster known as a Ghom attacked them and forgot to check back on him. Traumatized and feeling betrayed, the event would eventually set Simon down a dark path. Afterwards he met a human girl in the Pantheon named Grace, who had also ended up in it. The two became friends and started a group of human passengers known as the "Apex" who believed the numbers every passenger had (which were meant to showcase how many issues one had to solve) meant power and superiority with both Simon and Grace having the highest as "proof" of their status.
    • However despite their mostly amicable relationship which seemed to drift into more, Simon soon began to change for the worst when he and Grace separated from their group and met a young girl named Hazel and her gorilla companion, Tuba who had gotten lost in the train's cars. Though initially all seemed good between them, Simon's distrust of non-humans led to him betraying and killing Tuba by throwing her off the trains' rails without remorse alienating Hazel. Later on, his attempts to justify himself would end up alienating Grace. After they both found out that their perception of the numbers was wrong, Grace accepted it but Simon did not and this refusal costed him greatly when he tried retaking the Apex all on his own. After he nearly fell off during a confrontation after nearly getting the Apex to throw her off and was saved by Grace he tried to finish the job but failed as denizens of the train who Grace had been kind to saved her while he was killed by a Ghom and was not able to be saved by Grace due to rejecting her help.
  • His hatred of non-humans left no real allies from the Cartoon Network Deities, as the heroic deities found him too despicable while the villainous ones found him to be rather ineffective and uninteresting as an ally to their plans. As such Simon had to seek out allies in many other parts, moreso those who agreed on his points of view.
  • Simon has a hatred of all non-humans stemming from his experiences in the Infinity Train, his death at the hands of a Ghom only further deepened those feelings and seeing many non-humans in the Pantheon has made him seek out any allies who share a similar anti-nonhuman sentiment, among these allies were Bete Noire, who also advocates for the destruction of non-humans and Colonel McCullough, who despite his differing motivations does see why Simon's example is proof that humans can only truly trust one another in the end and that non-humans are their enemies and always will be.
  • Interestingly enough his actions and descent into insanity and evil due to mistrust and control issues had him reach a strange understanding with Koba, as the psychotic bonobo turned evil and cruel over his mistrust and hatred of humans, in a parallel way to how Simon's mistrust of the non-human passengers of the Infinity Train (as well as his refusal to accept the truth) led to his gradual turn to evil. Though neither cares about one another, they nonetheless have a strange mutual respect, though they won't hesitate to kill one another should they have the chance. He's also became enemies with Caesar for his hatred of non-humans and similarities to Koba, especially with how Simon killed Tuba, who acted as a caretaker to Hazel, without mercy and even bragged about it.
  • His stubborn refusal to see reality earned him an enemy in Mabel Pines, since she also vehemently rejected reality for a long time when life began to turn hard and not just something easy and simple and yet was able to eventually accept it and learn to cope with it, whereas Simon refused until he became a monster willing to do what it takes to keep his delusions "real" and silence those who claimed otherwise. For similar reasons, Dipper also became another enemy of his
    • Since he never takes responsibility for his actions, he ended up getting a lot of hatred from Bojack Horseman, who also stood a long time blaming others for his own faults before finally wising up and taking responsibility, he tried confronting Simon about it, but Simon's refusal to listen led to Bojack throwing a massive "The Reason You Suck" Speech to him in return out of frustration for his stubbornness:
    Let me tell you something pal, you can't keep blaming your ex-friends, the cat who accidentally abandoned you as a child, your parents, the weird train you were in or even the conductor of that train for your issues. You're a horrible, terrible person and as long as you remain thinking that you're the only victim here you'll never be anything but a horrible person who deserves all the crap that you've gotten for your actions.
    • For similar reasons of refusing reality, he also became enemies with Catra, who like Simon felt entitled to the affections of someone she was in love with and refused to acknowledge her own bad actions even when there was no one else to blame. Unlike him, however, she was eventually able to turn good and accept her faults after they nearly cost her everything and was sorely disappointed to see that Simon never got better from his entitled and childish attitude.
    • His refusal to see himself as wrong as well as his massive selfishness in regards to the purpose of the Infinity Train made him an enemy of Finn Mertens, as the latter was once stuck in a similar train and nearly kept himself trapped forever and dragged his brother/best friend Jake along, Finn was disappointed to hear the kind of monster that Simon turned into and how he refused to see reality for what it was and instead get stuck in his own non-changing world where he's always right, his hatred and killing of multiple non-humans only furthered this feeling of hatred.
  • As he acted very entitled towards Grace, who he had feelings for, he found allies in the form of many deities whose love was also not reciprocated and reacted in violent ways to vent their frustrations. Among them stood out Gaston, who felt entitled to Belle's love and was quick to react with violence and trying to murder the Beast who she fell in love with for it, Tighten who had been rejected by Roxanne for his creepy advances and entitled attitude and felt used by Megamind empathized with Simon's feelings of Grace using him and not doing things his way, as well as lying to him about Hazel's status, with his hatred of non-humans, Simon also gained the favor of Judge Claude Frollo who similarly had a disdain for anything that wasn't "normal".
    • Gideon Graves felt really bad that he never got to "score" with the woman he loved, remising about how Ramona dumped him and he could not get her back. He also pitied how Simon was seen as "crazy" for what he believed in and his mistrust of nulls, which Gideon said there was a point to. That said, Gideon has been trying to stamp out any possible guilt Simon has, preferring to have a helpful ally with no doubts about sinking to even lower moral extremes to get what he wants, just like he does.
    • Barney Stinson, who constantly roots for the villains as he believes them to be the "heroes", felt really bad for Simon and became one of his closest allies. He lamented how Simon was lied and manipulated and how mean Grace was for not accepting his leadership and "totally justified beliefs and actions". Barney's support of his worst traits has only made Simon even worse as a person as he feels flattered that someone "gets" him in his own twisted point of view.
  • Is hated by John Kramer/The Jigsaw Killer who was frustrated to know that Simon had used experiences that were meant to change him for the better instead to become worse and worse by rejecting the reality of things until he turned outright murderous. He plans on putting Simon on one of his classic games, hoping to either kill him or make sure he learns his lesson. Simon himself views him as despicable for his games and sees no point in being forced to them as he arrogantly believes himself to be always right. That said, Kramer did hear that Simon appears to hold some guilt buried deep down and hopes he can make it come out so Simon can finally reform as a whole.
  • The Phantom Thieves of Heart have been seeking to change Simon's heart, as his warped perception of reality and utterly entitled and destructive attitude is of great concern to them, especially since he seems to have some guilt buried within but is way too insane and unstable to properly acknowledge it or his own fault in what he's done to himself and others
  • Why would I ever want to change if I'm always right?!

Chaos Kin[tup]

First draft of my Gohma Vlitra restoration/rework. Asura's Wrath fans; what am I missing?

Gohma Vlitra, God of Living Lava

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/gohma_vlitra_asuras_wrath.png
The beast emerging from the Earth
  • Note: Restoration
  • House: Earth and Rock (House of Nature)
  • Overdeity
  • Symbol: An Orochi enveloping the Earth
  • Theme Songs: Vlitra's Revival, Asura and Yasha vs Vlitra
  • Alignment: Chaotic Evil
  • Portfolio: Orochi Draconic Abomination Made Of Lava, The Dark Will Of The Earth, Red and Black and Evil All Over, The Dreaded, Planetary-Sized Monster, Ultimately A Tool Of Chakrvartin
  • Domains: Rage, Magma, Destruction, Terror
  • Unwitting Pawn to: Chakravartin (formerly)
  • Interests: Mephiles the Dark, Nekron, The Anti-Spiral
  • Allies: Iblis, Dark Gaia, Surtr, Brand, SCP-457, SCP-682, Melkor, Te Ka, The Firebird
  • Rivals: Typhon, Cthulhu, Tiamat (Fate/Grand Order)
  • Enemies: All other ascended Asura's Wrath deities, especially Asura, Chakravartin, every Earth-based deity (especially Gaea, Geb), basically anyone who lives on the Earth, those who pollute the Earth (especially Hexxus), The SCP Foundation, the other ascended Moana deities (especially Te Fiti), Silver the Hedgehog, the Spring Sprite, most draconic deities
  • Evil Counterpart to: Battra, Gaea
  • A monstrous abomination born from the Earth's rage due to overpopulation and pollution, Gohma Vlitra is a monster that seeks to be free and wreak havoc on the surface. It is empowered by the souls of anything that dies on the planet. Its "children", the Gohma, are the enemies of the gods. The existence of Gohma Vlitra comes from Gaea's wrath at the souls of the dead not returning to it when they die. Ultimately however it was nothing more than a pawn in Chakravartin's much large schemes.
  • The monstrous Gohma Vlitra was once part of the pantheon, only to fall out due to lack of relevance. Despite the beast's origins, its existence horrifies the Protogenoi of the Earth. She admits that the monster was "born out of my rage", but that she now considers it a dangerous and out of control parasite, her out of control anger given molten flesh. And she was incredibly angry to learn it had returned. Upon Vlitra's re-ascension, Asura has taken it upon himself to lead a group of warriors to annihilate it once and for all.
  • Upon its return, there was a debate on whether it would gravitate back into Chakravartin's sphere of influence, or choose one of two omnicidal Grand United Alliance leaders; Melkor or Nekron. The Lord of the Unliving is interested in the entity for its destructive potential, but the Dark Lord of Arda was the one to convince it join him; he argued the the Golden Spider was using it as a mere tool, and with the Grand United Alliance of Evil the beast may finally get back at the gods, life on Earth and express its rage without end. The Dark Enemy of the World believes Gohma Vlitra is a good counter against other Mother Nature deities, as even those fueled by vengeance regard it as insane.
  • Melkor boasts that he created Gohma Vlitra by corrupting the Gaea of the Asura's Wrath universe and making Gohma Vlitra, all to spite the Valar Yavanna. While this is certainly in-character for him, the truth is that it and the Gohma are ultimately a creation of Chakravartin, not him. This claim seems to mainly be to secure the beast's alliegance to him, and simple vanity on his part.
  • Gohma Vlitra is very similar to the Flames of Disaster, Iblis; they are Living Lava abominations who almost mindlessly seek to destroy and spread molten rock wherever they go. Both could also be seen as the walking wrath of a higher god; Gohma Vlitra is the wrath of Gaea, and Iblis is the raw power of a very angry god. Mephiles immediately recognized the similarities and hopes to use Gohma Vlitra for his own ends. It is also similar to Dark Gaia as they are ancient beings within the planet who seek nothing but destruction.
  • Given this creature's nature, its return was a boon for the Firebird Surtr, Brand and SCP-457. Their reasons are obvious. Cthulhu was less pleased, but this is down to the fact he is supposed to be the Ancient Evil who wakes up and brings an end to the world as we know it. He proceeded to call Gohma Vlitra out and try and save the world from it so he make take it for himself. It's worth noting that this isn't the first time he's tried to save the world for his own interests.
  • Typhon also took offense at Gohma Vlitra's arrival, and while this is partly fueled by Gaea's orders this is also out of competition. The way Typhon sees it, if anyone is going to usher mass deicide and be a terrifying monster of chaos, it's going to be him. Tiamat also regards the Gohma as competition towards her own children.
  • While not without allies, Gohma Vlitra is mostly unreasonable and is by its very nature a threat to anyone on Earth. Even the likes of Mem Aleph consider it a rapid beast that needs to be put down. Te Fiti is utterly horrified by the thing's existence and nature as the wrath of Gaea, as she sees it as herself when she lost her heart and became Te Ka. Te Ka, however, relates to the monster given their nature.
  • The comparisons to Te Ka and Iblis make Gohma Vlitra an enemy of the ascended Moana deities, and Silver the Hedgehog. Upon the monster's return, the SCP Foundation immediately began working on a way to contain the Keter-class threat. Most dragons have made Gohma Vlitra an enemy. The fact that it is technically a dragon is something they prefer not to acknowledge.
  • The beast may be unfettered and possibly omnicidal in its rage against those who ruin the Earth, but its hatred is especially potent among polluters and those who hurt nature as a whole. As such, Hexxus is high on its enemy's list. Given the destruction a planet-sized lava Kaiju causes he cannot comprehend why it wouldn't consider itself a bigger threat to the world than he is, but knows he cannot reason with it and would rather have the Earth's crust not resemble its mantle.
  • Though Hexxus finds Gohma Vlitra to be overwhelming, he only has himself to blame for its arrival. As it turns out, Gohma suddenly appeared when he and his allies spread pollution. Unfortunately for Melkor Hexxus and supporters of his are his allies, and he can only tame the Draconic Abomination so much before team-killing. Watching this, the Anti-Spiral pondered if perhaps he could co-erce Gohma Vlitra into serving him instead. He figures the monster could be used as a deterrent against Spiral Beings who might try to exceed a certain population limit.
  • Much to the SCP Foundation's horror, Gohma Vlitra has struck an accord with SCP-682. Given its origins, it agrees with the Hard-To-Destroy Reptile's belief that humans are "disgusting".

  • Fears: All spiders
  • Opposed by: Harmoanians (those who ship Hermione with Harry)
  • Opposes: Ebony Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way
  • (Intro on Ron Weasley)
  • The fanbase can be an incredibly fickle thing. It doesn't matter what your alignment is, someone will find a way to somehow rationalize you to be the opposite, be you good or bad, and successfully convince others of this ideal.
    • During the early days of the Pantheon, due to being the Trope Namers, two of the most prominent classmates in Harry Potter's life, Ron Weasley and Draco Malfoy, ascended to the Pantheon some time after Harry himself was secured a place there, and represented the two ways fans can warp their perception of a character's alignment.
  • Ron did not know what to expect when he first ascended, but he did not expect to be met with such… vehement polarization.
  • Given that the movies are the most common image of Ron, not many know his original book feat(ure)s, like how he actually has more insightful moments (plus some that got attributed to Hermione), he's more shrewd and competent than most think, and that in the book it was Hermione who panicked at the Devil's Snare while it was he who got her to focus on remembering its weakness.
  • His Arachnophobia stems from young Fred and George transfiguring Ron's teddy bear into a giant spider. While her fears extend to more than just arachnids, he gets along with Misty in regards to their phobias.
  • Is actually good at mimicking voices, including Wormtail's, and even Parseltongue to open the Chamber of Secrets (though it also seems to help that the chamber entrance was detecting phonemes rather than language).
  • Established a "Disliked Heroes Anonymous" club for… well, heroes disliked by their audiences.
  • While he was just as dependent on Hermione on homework as Harry was, he still has a great tactical mind, and is well-versed in wizard folklore and culture even she doesn't know.
  • Speaking of Hermione, there are those who wonder just how they actually started getting together. It began at first year during their adventures with Harry, starting at the battle against the Troll at the Girl's Bathroom.
    • His affection for her were made manifest at second year, with jealousy towards Gilderoy Lockhart, him defending her against Draco for his insult, and his greater distress than Harry's upon discovering her petrified.
    • In third year, there was some tension due to her Crookshanks going after Scabbers (before he was eventually revealed to he Peter Pettigrew) but they made up thanks to Hagrid. He even had the cojones to stand up to Snape when he called Hermione an "insufferable know-it-all".
    • In fourth year, romantic feelings for one another began to grow and become more obvious, and harbored jealousies on each others' crushes at the time (Fleur Delacour and Viktor Krum).
    • His inability to realize and act on his feelings would frustrate Hermione all the way to fifth year, though she does kiss him before his first Quidditch game as Keeper.
    • Sixth year would be a trying time when he was the only one in the trio to be passed over by Professor Slughorn. His learning of Hermione snogging Krum back in fourth year, and her "lack of faith" in his ability after Harry pretended to spike his drink with Felix Felicis, worsened things. This resulted in a brief fling with Lavender Brown that thankfully did not last long, though he and Hermione made up after he was accidentally poisoned with mead on his birthday. He also comforted her as she wept during Dumbledore's funeral.
    • As for seventh year, they danced together at Bill Weasley and Fleur's wedding, he comforted her several times during the Horcrux hunt, he offered to vouch for Hermione as his cousin when they were told of the Ministry's crackdown on Muggleborns, and he tried in vain to get Bellatrix to torture him instead of Hermione when they were captured. And during the Battle of Hogwarts, his concern for the house-elves (of whom she had been fighting for their rights since fourth year) eventually culminated in her giving him the Big Damn Kiss.
  • Many prayers in his temple are death threats due to his relationship with Hermione, and the misguided females at Draco's temple built an annex in his temple to diss Ron.
    • Many of these threats had stopped coming, namely due to the wrath of Harry and Hermione, especially the latter.
  • The only thing he and Draco can agree on is their hatred of Ebony. And it's worse now that she's here, and is their neighbor to boot (though more Draco than Ron due to sharing Halls).
  • Was joyed to see his twin brothers ascend, especially Fred, who had died during the Second Wizarding War. At times, whenever the hate to his temple becomes a bit much for him, he does part-time work at their joke shop, having taken Fred's place as co-manager in the mortal realm.
  • Encountered another Harry Potter one day who was being a bit too chummy with Draco (and having seen him before at the joke shop, plus having heard of him through Harry and Hermione). This Harry had nothing to say to Ron given they never became friends in his timeline, and given how pretentious this Harry can be, Ron could see why. Rational Harry also has trouble comprehending what Hermione sees in him to eventually marry him.
    • Rational Harry has also expressed desire in seeing if Draco can learn to has enough happy thoughts of his parents that can render him able to summon a Patronus just like his world's Draco. Ron and the Slytherin were both skeptical of this working, but Rational Harry took it as a challenge.

First draft.

Copernica, Goddess of Robots With Magic (Coco)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/120006_1.png
  • Intermediate Goddess
  • Symbol: Her book
  • Alignment: Lawful Good
  • Portfolio: Robot Wizard, Black Mage, Elemental Powers of Fire, Frost, And Storm, Conjuring Barriers, Can Smack Foes With A Book To Reduce Their Magic Power, The Blue To Armilly's Red, Aesthetic Glasses, Squishy Wizard
  • Domain(s): Steambots, Magic, Knowledge
  • Heralds: Her friends Armilly and Galleo, plus Orik, Tarah and Thayne
  • High Priestess: Penny Polendina
  • Allies:
  • Rivals:
  • Enemies: Cinder Fall
  • Additional Character Relationships: Members of the Pantheon that have various relationships (examples include Enemy Mine, Vitriolic Best Buds, Teeth-Clenched Teamwork, Headbutting Heroes, Friendly Enemy, Friendly Rival, Just Friends, etc.) other than allies, rivals, or enemies.
  • Respected by/Respects:
  • Pitied by/Pities:
  • Opposed by/Opposes:
  • Conflicting Opinion:
  • When it comes to technology, it has a varying relation with magic. While they're usually at each other's throats, they sometimes meld too. And when it comes to robots, them possibly using magic can be a murky subject that involves debates on whether they have souls.
  • Copernica is a steambot who used to study in the University of Magic, but dropped out because she disapproved of their selectivity on who can learn magic and because she wanted to practice her art outside their stuffy labs and libraries. She wanted to "deploy knowledge practically, for the good of the many".
  • Her story (shared with her best friend, who's actually the main protagonist) begins when she and Armilly went foraging in the woods for a Peppermint Puffer mushroom to clean up the well in their village of Goosebucket. When they returned, they found Goosebucket being set ablaze by the Void Army, and the local Heroes Guild abducted. Being the only ones available to fight them, the two (plus their friend Galleo) took matters in their own hands to rescue the Guild.
    • But when the Guild proved to be nothing but Dirty Cowards, it became clear that the Fellowship (now with the addition of the veteran Orik (former sidekick of Gilgamech), with the sibling thieves Tarah and Thayne joining up later) was the Realm's only hope of stopping the Void Army from unleashing the Necronomicog to reshape the world by awakening the Behemoth.
    • Long story short, while they couldn't stop Behemoth from being awakened, they were able to vanquish it once and for all. As for what happened to Copernica after, she became the new principal of the University of Magic given the previous one had been in cahoots with the Void Army and opened it for everyone willing to learn.
  • That said, it turns out there was another candidate to this claim; Atlas android Penny Pollendina, due to inheritance of the Winter Maiden powers as well as generating an Aura when only those with a soul can (even if it's thanks to her "father" Pietro providing his for it). However, the title went to Copernica not only because of "hype prevention" on her "competitor", but because the steambot has a much wider repertoire of spells. Still, no hard feelings were had with either.
    • However, even with Penny just as a High Priestess, this drew the attention of Cinder Fall, who coveted the powers of the Winter Maiden and stormed her (one of two) temple(s) to murder Penny and scrap the new goddess. Due to a lack of need for extreme mobility back in her realm (usually leaving that to Orik), Copernica was a sitting duck for most of the fight, requiring Penny to intercede multiple times whenever the Fall Maiden went for the steambot. Eventually, the commotion drew her some of her Magic Archetypes neighbors in, and Ruby Rose herself was already en route, wanting to see Penny again (not knowing of Cinder's attack yet). Once The Cavalry arrived, after contending with all the meddlers, as soon as Ruby entered the scene, Cinder made a hasty retreat.
    • In the aftermath of the battle, while Ruby made the most of her reunion with Penny, a few of the participants in the battle approached Copernica and were intrigued with her very nature as a machine able to cast magic. After learning that she was teaching magic in her world after the Behemoth was vanquished, Palom invited her to join him in teaching (applications of) "black magic" at Elysium Academy (since how she learned magic might be different). Porom sees no issues here and finds Copernica to be an okay person, even if the idea of a Robot Wizard is still something to get used to.
    • (interaction with Ruby, maybe?)
  • Given the fact that the Houses of Science and Magic are usually at odds with one another, Copernica's mere existence is seen as a novelty, curiosity, or even an affront. What's more, she's a steam-powered robot, rather than electricity-powered like most robots in the Pantheon.
  • In regards to her array of spells, she has all manner of Fire, Frost, and Storm spells, and even put an opponent to sleep (though only once per engagement), increase or decrease resistances to/increase power in casting those elements, etc. Notably, her Meteor does Frost damage rather than Fire.
    • She expends Steam Pressure (SP) to cast her more powerful spells, and builds up (SP) with basic attacks (Book Bash that also reduces a target's magic power), and "cantrip"-level spells (like a Mana Barrier, a fire whip, a blast of electricity), build up extra SP, raise her own magic, conjure a reflective barrier against Fire, Frost, and Storm-element magic, or even make herself a Glass Cannon by buffing her magic attacks the cost of much of her resistances. She can also "weaponize" her Doubt by making it absorb elemental attacks at the cost of her momentarily malfunctioning.

Most Harry Potter characters need a rework. Also, I honestly don't see the need of putting the information of Ron being married to Hermione under spoiler tags. At this point, nearly everyone knows who gets hooked up with who.

As for Ron himself, he does seem to be the most incompetent of the trio, so I guess he can relate to Akko Kagari in that regard. He (and the rest of Hogwarts) might be interested in Luna Nova Academy and it's representatives. There's also two wizarding schools for Elves in th Warhammer World; though one of them, which is governed by the Dark Elves would be one which Hogwarts would be disgusted by, due to the education system there being focused on social Darwinism and students killing one another for graduation.

As for Engineered Heroics, there is Frost and The Seven, who do act as heroes and do heroic deeds as PR, but underneath it all is actually because they're Glory Hounds.

Still waiting for a response for my previous post. Is the Patrons viable for Dragon with an Agenda? Is Love Gestures a possible Hall that can be made in order to cut off some meat from Love: Other.

[down][down] The utmost minimum is around 4, but the recommended number at the moment is 9, in my opinion. There should be enough tropes regarding gestures to justify a Hall.

So, here's what can be suggested...

Intermediate: Eros/Cupid, Jecht, Red Sonja

Lesser: Guy Cecil

Demi: Asuka Tenjoin/Alexis Rhodes, Sain, Violet Evergarden, Yoriko Yasaka

Quasi: Lisa Williams and Ally Carter, Sigmund Freud, Youko Inokuma

@Copernica I believe androids like 2B would be fascinated by a machine wielding magic since it would remind them of Emil. Quick question did anyone take up my Jen/Pink Ranger profile? I couldn't find a trope for her hence why I took a hiatus.

Would there be any sea monsters who would be allies with her (or Abyssal Fleet as a whole)?

Battleship Princess, Goddess of Prettiness Equating Strength (Battleship-symbiotic Hime, Dyson)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/battleship_princess.png
Battleship Princess Kai 
  • Intermediate Goddess
  • Theme Music: Assault the Enemy's Super Dreadnought!
  • Symbol: Her "rigging"
  • Alignment: Neutral Evil
  • Portfolio: Gradual Prettiness Equating Power, Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette, Horned Humanoid, Humanoid Abomination, Followed by a Hulking Monster, Becoming More of A Regular Enemy Later On
  • Domains: Abyssals, Sea, Beauty, Battleships, Monster
  • Allies: The rest of the Abyssal Fleet
  • Enemies: Admiral, the Fleet Girls
  • Rivals: Illyasviel von Einzbern
  • General idea with the members of Abyssal Fleet is that the higher you go on the rankings, the less monstrous individual Abyssals become. Battleship Princess is one of the early peaks of this idea. As a battleship, she was one of the strongest Abyssals out there until more of them started to appear. Appearance wise, outside the hallmark details of Abyssals, only deformities she has are the small horns on her head, spikes on her chest and collar that grows into her back. And instead of needing to rely on a rigging, she instead commands a giant monster that is connected to her by a tube.
  • For some time, many thought that she was the leader or The Dragon to the leader of the Abyssal Fleet due to her being a battleship and all that. Ironically, of the many boss Abyssals, she might be one of most generic ones out there, as not only has she assisted other Abyssals, but there seems to be more than one of them. That being said, she does act as sort of a de facto leader to the Abyssals in the Pantheon just out of superiority.
  • Is called Dyson because she keeps on sucking your resources, patience and shots directed at other enemies.
  • Surprisingly, she might be one of more fashion savvy Abyssals as she not only had her time being on the beach but also having few casual outfits.
  • She seems to have a sort of rivalry with Illya. Well, it would be more accurate to say that Battleship Princess' monster has a rivalry with Heracles.
  • There exists an Abyssal called Battleship Water Demon who looks similar to Princess, but is still fairly distinct from her, plus her rigging monster has two heads instead of one. We are still trying to figure out the full relation between Princesses and Water Demons.

Continue the bloodline, Fujimaru!

@Mizerious: I dunno. Emil isn't described as a machine, and I'm not really sure what two hyper-advanced androids would be able to talk about with a steam-powered robot who can explicitly cast magic. Sorry.

Might've found a good trope for this guy:

Professor Genki for Goofy Suit:

Character: The mascot and host of Professor Genki's Super Ethical Reality Climax, the most popular show on Steelport, and plays a minor but reoccurring role in the series after the third game.

Reason: While it's ambiguous wether or not he's wearing a suit or he actually looks like a giant anime cat, his likeness is nonetheless used for costumes worn by employees. Seeing how the guy is essentially the embodiment of the games Denser and Wackier tone, it indeed looks pretty ridiculous, even more so when you wear it and go around shooting people and causing chaos. In fact, the whole point of his mini games is to kill as many people as you can, and they're all wearing stupid looking mascot suits.

A corpse, should be left well alone. Oh, I know very well how the secrets beckon so sweetly. Only an honest death will cure you now. Liberate you from your wild curiosity.

Considering that her former title was The Lost Lenore, maybe that trope can be of good use like using it on the original Lenore instead of another character from another franchise that has already been established.
