Welcome to the Trope Pantheons thread! Please read the rules:
- 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 means the profile will have a one week waiting period.
- For new and reworked deities, 4 is a 3 day waiting period.
- 5 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 is a 3 day waiting period.
- 4 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
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.

Detective Isaac Washington Jr., God of Excessive Swearing

- Domains: Black People, Guns, Swearing
- Followers: Kainé, Yata Misaki, Oyuki-Chan, Maika Halfwolf, Holden Caulfield, Marco Mazzoli, the Dra+Koi protagonist
- Allies: The AMS Agents (particularly G), Samuel L. Jackson, Travis Touchdown, Anarchy Panty Anarchy, all Good-aligned Resident Evil deities, Saeko Busujima, Rei Miyamoto, Juliet Starling, The Green Flu Survivors, Columbus, Tallahassee, Wichita and Little Rock
- Teeth-Clenched Teamwork with: Jill Valentine
- Enemies: The Magician, Albert Wesker, Alex Wesker, Dracula, Dr. Zomboss, the Special Infected, many undead gods in the Pantheon, particularly the zombie-type, Ragyo Kiryuin, Wiseman/Death Phantom
- Pities: Victims of Parental Incest
- Oppose: Unsympathetic undertakers of Parental Incest
- When it comes to swear words, none have said as many with such regularity as Detective Isaac Washington, Agent G's impromptu partner during the 1991 Papa Ceasar actually Clement Darling Case. Thanks to him, his game held the Guinness World Record for the most swear words in a video game ever (while it was later superseded by Mafia II, no one there cusses as much as Isaac has). And it's thanks to that that he ascended to the Pantheon. He was also the first from his game series to do so.
- As for who the duck he is, Isaac was a detective who lived in Bayou City, Louisiana. When it got struck by a viral compound that turned the population into mutants (at the time, he was at a strip club at his apartment* ), upon returning, and finding out that Papa Caesar (who killed his father, except not really) was behind this (except it was actually Clement Darling), he worked together with G to put a stop to it.
- It is not known if he and G actually managed to go to Vegas, since the pilot turned out to be a mutant and they had to shoot it.
- Due to his potty mouth, he's not allowed near any children. Except those who already cuss regularly, like Tiny Tina or Joel's partner Ellie. And if he does cuss in range, he gets his speech censored from their ears. He is one of the few people to get his treatment due to his lack of self-control.
- The other is Torgue Flexington, though their only real interaction is when Isaac buys weapons from him for killing zombies with.
- Due to his association with G, the Magician has considered him just as much of an enemy as the aforementioned AMS agent. Issac for his part is just ready to go to town on Dr. Curien's creation and rip his motherfucking balls off.
- Got a few teases after it was discovered that Isaac apparently gets his nails manicured. That, or it was just an excuse to not dig into a corpse's entrails for a ringing phone inside of it. Especially since he had no problems holding that bloody phone G dug out afterwards. Then again, that's arguably just his fingers rather than his nails getting dirty, so… In any case, Isaac is not explaining his reasons.
- Has a gun he calls the Gwendolyn, which has the power (but not the crowd control) of the automatic shotgun, the range of the handgun, and has Bottomless Magazines.
- Ever since several elevator-related hazards throughout his adventure with G, Washington has acquired strong case of elevatophobia.
- Due to his encounter with a literal example in Clement Darling, he will not say the word "motherfucker" to anyone who actually screwed their mother. Other swear words are still fair game, though.
- As for people who actually did that, his reactions vary.
- For sympathetic "culprits", such as Aleph, Otacon, and Chibiusa (due to her tenure as Black Lady), he just avoids the subject altogether. He also loathes Wiseman for making the last one possible.
- For sympathetic victims, such as Mary, he offers his condolences.
- For jerks like Chris Griffin, Glenn Quagmire, and Ragyo Kiryuin, he makes his opinions on them fucking clear.
- As for people who actually did that, his reactions vary.
Oolong, Patron Saint of Fighting Games (Lee)
- Returning to: Gaming Genres
- s:
- Demigod
- Symbol: A photo of himself doing a flying kick on a gong
- Alignment: His game has so little characterization, so either True Neutral or Neutral Good
- Theme Music: Main BGM 1 (arcade), Fight Theme (NES)
- Portfolio: herald of the first Fighting Game, preceding Street Fighter, Bruce Lee Clone, Not Quite Flight, prevailing over weapons-users without using weapons himself, Would Hit a Girl
- Domains: Kung Fu, Fighting
- High Priests: The Karate Champ fighters (as they are the first Fighting Game characters ever)
- Followers: Nearly every non-ascended Fighting Game combatant ever.
- Allies: Woolie, Son Goku, Bruce Lee
- Friendly Rivals: Ryu, all other Fighting Game gods, and many gods who have been featured in Fighting Games
- Not-So-Friendly Rivals/Enemies: The evil Fighting Game deities (e.g. M. Bison, Shao Kahn, etc.), John Kreese
- There have been some who have complained why Ryu isn't the God of Fighting Games (aside from the fact that he already has a lot of titles under his belt). With Oolong's ascension, now it is known.
- His fighting game was the first to feature HP bars, fighting until KO, characters using different fighting styles, female fighters, groin attacks, changing music when HP is low, and more than one Victory Pose. Being a genre progenitor, that's why Oolong was able to take the spot.
- As for who he is, all that's known of him is that he was on a quest to become the Grand Master of Kung-Fu, honoring the memory of his illustrious father. In order to do that, he would have to face some of the most skillful martial artists in one-on-one battles. Apart from punches and kicks, he has great jumping ability, which would be his only edge over his foes as they use all manner of weapons (except for the last one, Blues, based on Bruce Lee, who fights unarmed just like Oolong).
- Since most of his opponents employ Hit-and-Run Tactics, putting up a good fight with many of the fighting game deities has become…quite difficult, with all their combos, zoning attacks, faster ranged attacks, and more advanced techniques. Now, it might be he who has to hit-and-run.
- To further improve his skills, he trains with many other deities in the other Houses, mainly the House of Combat, particularly Ryu, who has since become the face of Fighting Games.
- Upon hearing of his ascension, Son Goku thought someone familiar to him has arrived. He was mistaken, but the two became friends anyway. That said, spars against one another proves difficult due to just how far apart their "weight classes" are.
- Given that one of his attacks lands on the opponent's family jewels, he's gotten the appreciation of Johnny Cage.
Just be patient I'll add them myself. Plus I prefer the samurai part first.
I swear Loid, you can't draw worth shit!Quick question, but would there be any issue in deleting Coco Reeve & Miranda Campbell's profile?
Their profile is lacking in terms of interactions, have short texts, and Cruel and Unusual Death is a rather broad trope in terms examples.
Nope. They can be deleted.
All my fault, you say...? What fault? I daresay it's all thanks to me.They're pretty minor characters, so no problem here.
Posting for feedback.

- After winning a tournament, Monster Rancher fan Genki Sakura was rewarded with a beta version of "Monster 200X". The game played normally at first, but he shortly found himself summoned inside the game, where he met Holly, a girl slightly older than him, and her companion Suezo. The two were the only survivors of a village razed by the evil Moo, who was turning all the monsters in the world into his minions and killing those who stood against him. Holly and Suezo were on a quest to find the Phoenix to defeat him and his army and Genki decided to join them. Soon they awakened a cute penguin-like monster called Mochi and found other companions in the pacifistic Golem, the proud Tiger of the Wind and cunning Hare. They became known as the Searchers because of their quest to find the Phoenix. In the end they discovered that Suezo, Mochi, Golem, Tiger and Hare harbored the Phoenix's soul inside them and so the five sacrificed themselves to form the legendary bird and defeat Moo, immediately after which Genki was thrown back into his world.
- Having not even been allowed to say goodbye, Genki refused to accept his adventure's abrupt end. There wasn't much he could do about it until he found a Monster Rancher game he'd never seen before and what do you know, this one also transported Genki into the game world. He reunited with Holly and they set out to revive all their monster friends, and also save Holly's father, who had been used as the host for Moo's soul before. The gang competed in a tournament to obtain mystery Disc Stones that could possibly contain what they were looking for, while fighting against Durahan, a remnant of Moo's army. Everything turned out for the best as they managed to save Holly's father, revived every monster that was Moo's pawn, started rebuilding Holly's village, and Genki became able to travel between the two worlds as much as he wanted.
- With peace restored to Pangaea (that's the world's name), the Searchers were finally allowed to just enjoy life together. Then one day, Genki and Mochi were playing some ways away from Holly's village when they found a mysterious Disc Stone that was all white and didn't have the usual monster figure on it. The Searchers had a meeting to decide what to do with it and they agreed they should see what it was about. They walked to the nearest shrine to unseal the Disc Stone and upon doing so, found themselves sucked into a vortex, much to their panic. Shortly they landed in a place that they thought somewhat resembled their world but at the same time not. Genki, being the one used to inter-world travel, assured his friends everything would be alright and that they should take their time exploring this new location. Some time into it they met Ash Ketchum and his Pikachu; Ash and Genki were both fascinated with the monsters they had never seen before and quickly hit it off. At length Genki explained their situation to Ash, who decided to take them to the Main House. There, the Searchers were surprised to hear the explanation about the Pantheon and that the group was under consideration for deification. After being assured that they could go back to their world whenever they pleased, the Searchers accepted being deified.
- One of the reasons they decided to have a presence in the Pantheon was because they heard of some Baddies in the same vein as Moo that could pose a threat to their world. Yeah, they tend to refer to villains as Baddies, which is very cringeworthy to most of the rest of the Pantheon, although at least Genki, Mochi and Golem get a pass for saying it. Anyway, the Elder Dragon Fatalis is probably the one they keep a watch on most, as not only is it a seemingly naturally malevolent monster much like Moo, it has also caused something called the Black Blight, which turns monsters who otherwise live happily with humans against them. As Pangaea is a world where humans and monsters are totally integrated with one another, the Black Blight reaching it could spell dire consequences, something the Searchers are determined to avert.

@rlock Go ahead. I would go far as to say that Cross Ange in general could use a bit of checking since some of the profiles are lacking in interactions outside of the series.
I swear Loid, you can't draw worth shit!so... gonna try this again. i nominate Alastor for Baddie Flattery because he was the one who coined the "Viewtiful" in Viewtiful Joe. in fact, he's mostly pleasant and encouraging to his anyone he fights with. i also want the Booty Warrior for Gayngster for reasons I'm sure is obvious for anyone who's seen The Boondocks.
@Wootz: Rei is another Mons user (who utilizes Kaiju from the Ultra Series to fight enemies). Musashi and Ultraman Cosmos both serve as protectors of benevolent and non-evil Kaiju, even having set up a whole planet in Juran for them to live in peace.
"Bingo! If two species hate each other, they will wipe each other out on their own."Not feeling either of them sorry

- When Perpetua was designing the early DC Multiverse, she made it a triumvirate of matter, anti-matter and dark matter. Her first son, Alpheus, would be the World Forger in crafting new universes. These were shaped by the Crisis Anvil, which allowed him to retcon things in-universe. Hypertime and the Life Entity are but two of his creations. His dragon, Barbatos, would dispose of the unstable worlds. He would ultimately team up with his brothers Mar Novu(the Monitor) and Mobius(the Anti-Monitor) to stop their mother's mad schemes of weaponizing the multiverse to retaliate against those that might judge her guilty. Though his brothers went to war with one another as the newfound Source Wall made the Anti-Monitor's role more or less defunct, the World Forger would carry on his job and stay out of their feud. Unfortunately the dragon got greedy and killed him, turning the Dark Multiverse into a sustained nightmare realm.
- Death is not the end for Super-Celestials, and he was resurrected in the Sixth Dimension. Initially he threatened to lock up those who might side with Doom to ensure that Justice would prevail and foil his mother's evil, but Batman would convince him there was another way. Still, while Alpheus opposes the grand evil of his mother, he is ultimately a neutral being. He doesn't take sides with the various alliances, but he does make it clear he opposes the leader of the Grand United Alliance of Evil for his close alliance with the treacherous Barbatos, seeking to hijack the World Forge when the Flame Imperishable remains beyond him, and as one of the things his mother did was ally with Melkor it is another reason to oppose the rogue Valar.
- With Barbatos imprisoned, the World Forge can now create new universe while failed ones are destroyed and recycled in the Dark Multiverse. Concerned he might be a bit rusty after his stay in the Sixth Dimension, Alpheus has been seen talking with the Alpha and Omega, and the God known to Bob for advice. They can understand the difficulty in creation.
- He does not trust Grima or Antasma. It's a justifiable opinion, but it's mainly fueled from his history with Barbatos who's a bat dragon. The World Forger is considering asking Tartarus to help imprison threats to creation. During his travels he would meet Nox, who he became somewhat fond of due to being The Sacred Darkness, and somewhat relatable to him. The World Forger holds a fondness for Giratina as well, since while being a demonic-looking dragon with a nasty temper, is only so because it is concerned over balance and order. The rest of the Creation Trio found Alpheus' addition a great benefit, due to his expertise in the molding and shifting in space-time.
- One of the few beings that the Anti-Monitor tolerates. Though he ultimately sides with Perpetua and remains a driven Omnicidal Maniac in his feud with the Monitor, the World Forger is a figure both brothers have respect for. The First Son of Perpetua laments that Mobius remains evil, fondly reminscing of the time they combined into the Ultra-Monitor to face off against their mother. The World Forger's opposition to his mother means he ends up working with the Celestials and the Ones. Of the Ones he finds himself relating most with the Father, due to being in the middle of a good and evil dichotomy. He is also friendly with Cosmos, as while he isn't good-aligned he does want some sort of stability for the cosmos and he finds Justice more useful in achieving that than Doom.
- His close alliance to the Celestials comes from the fact they brought him in the pantheon to prepare for the possible arrival of Perpetua.
- Alpheus is most impressed by Madoka wielding the power of Retconjuration to end the ultimately unjust system of witches, though it came at a cost. He has also found Emmet Brickowski's optimism combined with his skill at building to be charming. Though not interested enough in him to be a proper ally, he did give Emmet a heads-up warning that there is a world in the Dark Multiverse where Rex Dangervest succeeded at ensuring Emmet becomes him.
- His goal during his "heel" phase was to lock up those who chose Doom and remake the multiverse so it only contains those of Justic. Zamasu decries turning against this decision, as he had hopes Alpheus would make a perfect world. The World Forger scoffs at him by saying his definition of perfect is merely "perfect to me", not what's actually "perfect". However feel he has a point that the Dragonball Multiverse needs to be improved. He's rather annoyed by Beerus' sloth, but does think Mosco is doing a decent job. He's yet to express his thoughts on the two Zen'o.
- Sometimes the World Forger finds himself talking with various Knight Templar and Well-Intentioned Extremist deities. YHVH seeks out the World Forger to help usher in a perfect multiverse. He states that he should pursue his plans to create a multiverse of Justice. The Divine Powers also seek him out to use the Crisis Anvil in their favor. The First Son of Perpetua tends to turn them down, along with Eliphas' request as he feels he should focus more on his job and preventing the evils of his mother right now. And he'll never hear the end of it from the Source's enforcers if they learn he's been meddling in the core affairs of other multiverses.
- Nerose Satanel believes he should've stuck by his guns, however otherwise has no hard feelings as he can understand a perfectionist desire. The World Forger has given his own critique on the Hadou Gods in response, at least when it comes to the ascended ones
- Mithra; created a fatal error by things into "good" and "evil", resulting in unending conflict. It has taught Alpheus more about the balance, or lack there-of, of Justice and Doom, and has made him reconsider how one should manage them.
- Nerose Satanel; actually impressed that he created a world of Justice, though Batman has pointed out to him Justice rings hollow if it is achieved at the sacrifice of free will.
- Mercurius; a bit concerned with the consequence of Eternal Recurrence, but otherwise doesn't feel he did that bad a job. Perhaps it's because the DC Multiverse is semi-cyclical. Enrico Pucci believes he should reshape Hypertime to fit this more, in order to play to his belief that if everyone already knows their fate they will be content with their lives at last.
- Ren Fuji ; pities what his Law leads to, but hopes for improvement.
- Hajun; considers him completely insane and a threat to everything everywhere. He has all of Mobius' extreme solipsism but with no restraint whatsoever and if he were to complete his Law and destroy the Masadaverse, he knows the rest of the omniverse would be on his hit list. He feels the same about Lord English, who while not a Hadou God has the power and raging omni-dickery to want to tear apart the World Forge and the omniverse apart.
- He represents dark matter, and is frustrated that Barbatos' machinations have derailed what would eventually become the Dark Multiverse. It's meant to be rich in potential, and Barbatos chose to rule the broken worlds he was supposed to get rid of. Returning to the World Forge, he was a little miffed that Rick had stolen some of his supplies. It wasn't easy, but in the Trope Pantheon he needed to buff his dark matter-powered portal gun and other interdimensional travel devices. However Alpheus has enough that Rick's theft is merely a nuisance.
- As a celestial master of dark matter, the World Forger was rumored to have ushered the Dark Matter Horde. He denies this, and they are likely connected to Void Termina anyway, but they are still intrigued to him and his nature. Unfortunately so is the Dark Star, who wishes to one day assimilate the darkness of the Dark Multiverse and overcome the World Forger as part of its plan to destroy all things and leave all in darkness.
- Jimmy Neutron was intimidated by Alpheus as his Evil Twin tried to use a dark matter chip to create an evil copy of Earth at the expense of the real Earth's existence, however he soon deduced the World Forger is not evil. He wondered if Evil Jimmy may have somehow replicated the Dark Multiverse's physics on a micro-scale, but notices that "a world full of evil" is more like the Antimatter Universe or recent iterations of Earth-3, so it probably works in a different fashion. Jimmy wondered if he could help fix things, however the First Son of Perpetua declined the offer and stated "dealing with the quagmire that the Dark Multiverse has become is a job for the experts".
- Another reason why the World Forger rarely takes sides is because he has a job to do, well, forging worlds. Despite his official house, unofficially his real home in the pantheon is the House of Craft. He is looking for someone he can trust to help eliminate the failed worlds while he brings up the ones worthy of light. After working with Neith, Vulcan and Dyntos in the art of creation, Amara signed up to the job, as it's kind of her thing. Alpheus welcomed this, however was concerned by her brother as he considered him a bit too..childish. Honestly, it's a kind way of putting it.
- The creator of Hypertime, the World Forger is an important figure in the House of Time And Space. With his excellent smithmanship he can keep the various retcons and changes to the timeline straight in the Trope Pantheon. It's said that whenever a retcon in the pantheon occurs, it comes down to Alpheus swinging his mighty Crisis Anvil. He knows many wish it to be put at rest in Maximum Security, but the First Son of Perpetua refuses to relinquish the weapon for even a moment's notice; he has so much work to do after the whole Barbatos incident.
- An additional reason for his reluctance to let the Crisis Anvil out of his hands for even a second is that he knows Melkor desires it almost as much as the Flame Imperishable. And he told Melkor off for his coveting.
Alpheus: "You seek the Anvil to create, which was your desire before spite consumed you. But you don't know how, and can't use it efficiently. You will only corrupt and mutate due to your limited understanding, incomplete wisdom and petulant childishness. If you cannot come to terms you are being used as an example by Eru, you are nowhere ready to use the Anvil in any efficient manner".

- Additional relationship with: Atrocitus (The Butcher)
- In the DC Universe, there is power through emotion. Emerging from the white light of life was the Emotional Spectrum, where the seven emotions of rage, avarice, fear, willpower, hope, compassion and love would be presented by the colors of the visible light spectrum; ROYGBIVnote . The first to feel these emotions would become the Emotional Entities, cosmic beings who usually express themselves with hosts. Hidden behind the Source Wall was another side to the spectrum; one based off hidden emotions and wavelengths outside human perception. The only one known so far is Umbrax, the ultraviolet entity of shame, guilt and nihilism.
- Applies to the lot
- These entities were for a long time thought lost; except for Parallax who had bonded with Sinestro, and Umbrax who was hidden, they sacrificed themselves to replenish the emotional spectrum by sinking into the Source Wall. However the Life Entity found itself in the Pantheon due to passing through whatever is beyond the Source Wall. When the Wall was broken the other entities started following the White Light and eventually all of them managed to arrive to the pantheon. This led to a merger of the ascended entities' profile with their brethren.
- The SCP Foundation believes the entities should be contained and studied, especially Umbrax. Some like Parallax are at arms against this, others like Ion think this is a good idea but do not trust the Foundation. Despite the attempt at containment, the Emotional Entities managed to secure a place as one of the two general heads of the Emotion House alongside, well, the Emotions. Mainly it's that they feel a kinship towards them, being emotional embodiments. They're a lot more alien and some have compared them to the Chaos Gods, those asides from Khorne and the Butcher there isn't a 1-1 correlation and they regard each other as rivals.
- Their trope was once held by Koro-Sensei, however he has permitted them having it as he has his own trope. Their ascension came as big news for the various lantern corps. Having been imprisoned for so long by Larfleeze, Ophidian was reading to settle the score with him. Ion, Adara, the Proselyte and the Predator were on good terms with the Green Lanterns, Bro'dee Walker, Iroque and Carol Ferris. Parallax is a somewhat reluctant ally of Sinestro, and Umbrax has had a working relationship with him in the past. The Life Entity tries to keep a check on their interactions so they don't compromise its plans. As for the Butcher, it is generally kept in check by Atrocitus.
- The Emotional Entities tend not to hang around each other, instead exploring the pantheon to promote whatever emotion they are and find nourishment from. The exception is the Life Entity, who has a leading position in the Grand United Alliance Of Nature and despite its somewhat manipulative nature is the most grounded of its "family". It has gotten the entities to agree on one important thing: life and emotions must continue to exist, which is why the GUAD must be opposed no matter what. Asides from Nekron, the entities hold a shared contempt for Nagash as his "make everyone" my undead slaves" would rob them of emotion and being.
- The entities do not all share an ally, but they do have a shared enemies list. They are usually related to beings who would stamp out emotion, life itself or have other issues with them. Within their own universe this is Nekron and Krona, the latter having ensnared them for a time for his emotional experiments and they're rather salty about it; Parallax being the exception as it found the Mad Guardian's ends useful for it.
- None of them care much for the third or sixth Hadou Gods. Nerose Satanel doesn't wish to snuff out the Life Entity as that would kill almost every DC Comics god, but his enforcing of happiness at the cost of free will to everyone would starve out the entities. Hajun inflicting a Hate Plague on the multiverse would derive all but the Butcher of food, but Hajun would inevitable derive him of hate to feed off.
- Cyrus doesn't oppose the Life Entity as he wants some form of life to persist, but his belief in the chaos of emotions has him loathe the Emotional Entities. The Auditors of Reality regard all, even the Life Entity, to be too chaotic for their tastes. Though Cyrus has arguably reformed, he still considers the emotional entities too dangerous...and for most he's probably right.
- Ungoliant, noticing they are all entities of light, considers the Emotional Entities a banquet waiting for her to feed on. She can't fight them off when they're in a host, so she waits until they are on their own so she may feed on them. The majority of the entities consider her abhorrent, but Ophidian and Parallax regard her as a rival; the former relates to her gluttony due to being avarice incarnate, and the latter respects her fear factor.
- The Imperium of Mankind is well aware of their similarities to the Chaos Gods and consider containing them (the Life Entity Ion, Adara and the Proselyte) or exterminating them (The Butcher, Ophidian, Parallax, the Predator and Umbrax) to be important. Discord had a more bemused opinion as he was curious about what they would become if he Discorded them, though he refused to do on the Life Entity. Given their inherent nature as certain emotions, this lasted all of five minutes, but had interesting results. Visually their colors were inverted
- The Butcher and the Predator basically swapped places. Personality-wise they become a Tsundere and Yandere.
- Ophidian and the Proselyte became the entities of charity/selflessness and selfishness. Not quite taking each other's attributes, but close. An anomaly of the process, which other emotional entities experienced, was spitting up an inverted Lantern Power Battery and ring. Ophidian created a Teal Lantern battery and ring that represents charity, while the Proselyte created an Amber Lantern battery and ring that represents selfishness.
- Parallax became the entity of courage, more or less the same as Ion but still held more autonomy than Ion. It spit up a Purple Lantern battery and ring that represents courage. Ion, rather than inverting its colors like most of its kin, instead turned grey and become the entity of apathy. The result was the creation of a Grey Lantern batter and ring based off apathy.
- Adara became the entity of despair, and spit up an Orange Lantern ring and battery. This enraged Larfleeze as he felt it was mocking him, but while they use the same color scheme they were powered and inflicted despair. He decided to use it as a "fools gold" booby trap for whoever tried to steal his stuff. Discord tried to see what'd happen with Umbrax, but couldn't figure out how to Discord an entire star.
- Applies to the Life Entity
- God spoke: "Let There Be Light", and there it was. The Life Entity is the White Light, the one from where all life began in the DC Universe. This makes it Nekron's number one enemy, for not only disturbing the darkness with life and light, but being the linchpin to all life. The first and most powerful the Emotional Entity was also the first of the pantheon, coming to benefit under the Flame Imperishable of Eru. Melkor noticed the similarities it had with that fire who's failure to locate began his fall and hopes to obtain the Entity to get something close to it. Rumor has it he even wishes to subjugate it as a host. The Entity's response to such claims?
Life Entity: "Better men have tried. Overdeity or not disgraced Valar, I am subject to none, lest of all a soul as hopelessly nihilistic and corrupted as you".- The Life Entity is closely guarded within the House of Life, as it is feared what will happen should Nekron succeed in capturing and attempting to kill the Entity again. Asides from him, the Life Entity has a number of other worries such as SKYNET who is unattached to life due to being a machine, and would love to terminate it to exterminate organic beings. It is less concerned with the House of the Undead or Chernabog, but the latter dislikes the light it brings while begrudgingly admitting its existence is necessary. And the former have many who are damaged by the white light.
- The Life Entity once had Firestorm, the Martain Manhunter, Hawkman, Hawkgirl and Aquaman play the four classical elements routine to forge a successor; Swamp Thing. It was done rather manipulatively but was for the best of life. Captain Planet felt it was similar to how he is formed, and the Entity agreed. The White Light has since become an important figure of the Grand United Alliance Of Nature, due to its desire to protect all life.
- Holds a kinship with Xerneas due to being a figure of life and replenishment. Initially it and Yveltal, along with Dhuum were on poor terms as they were death entities and Dhuum disliked how it revives people. However Dhuum calmed down when he realized the Entity only does that for very special occasions and normally doesn't like reviving people. It also accepted Yveltal when it became more clear it represents destruction as a necessity, not as an enemy of life. On the flip side the Life Entity has become more skeptical of Chakravartin for how sinister his scheming is despite the kinship of being progenitors of life. It is less skeptical of Nurgle as he loves all life, and the Life Entity agrees, but feels he is a bit too obsessive.
- Applies to the Butcher
- The Butcher was created from the first murder, out of rage from it; be it the slain or the slayer is unknown. However it is likely the former, as the rage it is attracted to is retributive and vengeful. As such it doesn't think much of the House of Hatred as most members inspire rage and/or are completely unjustified in wrath, but not all. It prefers the House of Vengeance. As far as the Spectre is concerned, the Butcher is its Evil Counterpart. Scar regards the Butcher as a being to be opposed, as he doesn't want to be consumed by his anger once more.
- One of the beings in the House of Hatred that the Butcher likes is Mephisto, as the Lord of Hate brings it plenty of hate and even rage to feast on. Another is Angra Mainyu. When it bonds to a host the Butcher allows one to achieve vengeance, and its allies are brimming with a desire for revenge. For said allies the Butcher is content to simply aid them. For an actual host, the Butcher's ultimate goal is to take Bruce Banner as his host, creating "The Butcher Hulk" persona. It hopes this is retained as a personaltiy even if removed. The Hulk has other ideas.
The Hulk: "Hulk is Hulk!" *punches the Butcher*- Others the creature is fond of is Kayeko and Sadayo, who it wishes well in their vengeance and hatred even if it knows it can never get the two to get along. The Butcher wants to aid Painwheel on her path of revenge as well. The Butcher, unlike the other Chaos Gods, actually gets along with one of them; Khorne. Granted as personifications of rage "get along" is relative, but they do feel a certain kinship. Khorne represents rage and hatred in all its forms, not just the mindset of the Butcher, which can lead to some disagreements, but compared to their usual temperment it comes off as civil.
- Using certain symbolic cues, it is believed that the first murder which created the Butcher was Cain's murder of Abel. Again, it's unknown if he was born from Cain's rage towards his brother or the rage at Cain for fratricide, but given the Butcher prefers hosts of pain-born rage it was probably the latter. The SCP Foundation considers it relatively important to prevent the Butcher from interacting with any incarnation of Cain or Abel because of the possible consequences of the Butcher meeting one of its "creators".
- Applies to Ophidian
- Ophidian the Tempter was the first to desire more than they should have, becoming the embodiment of avarice. Or greed, if you will. Along with Parallax and Umbrax Ophidian is on the malicious side of the Emotional Entities. It is known as the Tempter as it brings out greed. Larfleeze captured it because he was too full of want for even the orange snake. It is most fond of Famine for inspiring greed through hunger, and considers the ever-gluttonous Gluttony "kind of a cute pet". Ophidian likes his brother Greed the most due to being the exact emotion it embodies, though at the same time it considers him competition and a potential host. Not that Greed doesn't like the snake. When it comes to the Chaos Gods, the being is closest to Slaanesh since s/he is all about desire and self-interest; something avarice is all about.
- Ophidian resents Larfleeze's capture of it, and wants a replacement for the Orange Lantern...more specifically one that it believes it can cowe and do its bidding. It has been considering Mr Krabs and Smaug, and though it's intentions towards them is selfish it does seem to like their greed. Ophidian has promised them many riches to aid in taking down Larfleeze. The Tempter is more seriously interested in powerful hosts most befitting of its avarice such as planet, star and even dimensional eaters. It is also interested in Android 21 and taking control of her Heart and Hunger, which horrifies her.
- All of the Emotional Entities oppose Apophis, one of the major figures in the GUAD, for obvious reasons. Ophidian is the first to oppose it, being a fellow snake. Though malicious, the destruction of the universe would deny it things to covet. Apophis regards the ordered universe as somewhat offensive and antithetical to chaos. Neither can fully understand each other's desires, and they certainly don't accept it. Ophidian also opposes Moro, but more so as a rival than an outright enemy; he wants it all and the Tempter respects that. Moro knows Ophidian wants his power and intellect, and knows their combined power would likely surpass even Lord Beerus. However he cannot the snake's desire to make him a host unless he is capable of subjugating the being to his will and not the other way around.
- The creature was implied to be the serpent that tempted Adam and Eve. Like the Butcher how that works when it apparently predates the human race by billions of years is left to the theologians. Out of the many demons, Crowley and the Satan of Paradise Lost confirmed they were/took the form of said serpent. Ophidian has yet to speak about how it feels about Crowley and its true relationship with either, but it does find kinship in Satan for desiring that which is beyond their reach.
- Applies to Parallax
- Initially thought to be the supervillain name of Hal Jordan, Parallax was revealed to be the insectile embodiment of fear itself. Starting as an insect that was the first creature to feel fear, Parallax has made civilizations destroy themselves in terror to feast off it and it makes absolutely no apologies on that. The former impurity that prevented Green Lanterns from touching yellow was in fact Parallax imprisoned in the Central Power Battery. How dangerous can this being be? It practically destroyed the universe past to future at its peak, and the Spectre fears it as a being with more blood on its claws than any other he's faced...save the Anti-Monitor, of course.
- Because of its monstrous nature, many gods who specialize in fear hate it. Jake and Sulley scare children for a power source, and wish no real harm on them. As such they hate the fear entity for having almost destroyed the universe. Auriel considers such a being an enemy of hope, to which Parallax merely scoffed "my beef is with that insufferable Space Whale and the purple octopus; even hope invites fear for me". Parallax itself hates Ragnaros the Firelord as he still considers it an INSECT! to burn. Parallax's response?
- Associates itself with the Dementors due to being malevolent emotion eaters. While their palates of fear and despair are different, they are closely related and can easily work in each other's favor. Plus it has the easier time possessing people consumed by loss, despair and fear. It associates with Pennywise as well due to their love of fear, with Pennywise finding it like "salting the meat". Other "friends of fear" the bug has is Cell (who's ambition beyond obtaining and fluanting his perfection is to see people's faces contorted in terror) and Freddy Krueger (who lives to bring lethal nightmares).
- Parallax also formed an alliance of convenience with Nurgle as the despair the Great Unclean One brings fuels Parallax, but their methods and worldviews are very different. For starters the Fear Entity can't grasp how Nurgle demonstrates a propensity for depondency and love simultaneously. The Imperium regard Parallax as the worst of all the emotional entities and something they must exterimate, however it mocks them, and the Emperor of Mankind to his face, by pointing out the imperialistic, oppressive regime has generated so much fear that it could forever subsist on their terror, even boasting to the Emperor's face that he is the Chaos God of Fear and Repression. The Emperor proceeded to go at its sore spot by saying it is deep down a terrified little bug. Parallax responded very poorly.
Parallax: "I AM FEAR AND FEAR FEELS NOTHING!!!" - Applies to Ion
- Ion was initially believed to be an honorary title of the Green Lantern Corps, given to an empowered Kyle Rayner. His newly found Overdeity status was in fact due to an emotional entity, Ion. Barring the Life Entity it is the first emotional entity, the very first creature to will itself to act. Unlike Parallax Ion is wholly symbiotic and passive. It resembles a winged dolphin with a living lantern on its jaw. The being is easily the most controllable and understood entity, which is why the SCP Foundation is the least concerned with it.
- Given the feud of their lantern corps and Parallax's past history, Ion really doesn't like the Fear Entity. It has the bravado to get under its nerves by reminding it it was once a fearful insect, causing Parallax to scream that it fears nothing. Beyond Parallax Ion really doesn't care for the Anti-Spiral, who's desire for suppression of evolution and development makes him against willpower. That said, it is knowlegable of the Spiral Nemesis and fears it as itself free of restraint and reason. However Ion is confident people won't go that far.
- Other enemies include YHVH and Nurgle. The opposition to YHVH is obvious; YHVH believes free will is an evil to eradicate, and Ion is basically free will personified. Lucifer just wishes it wasn't nearly as passive. The Willpower Entity prfers not to talk about Lucifer as he represents the dangers of the emotion it embodies, but prefers him over YHVH. As for Nurgle, the being is all about giving up and accepting stagnation. In short, the antithesis to will.
- The opposition to the Anti-Spiral led to Ion getting Team Dai-Gurren's attention. As the first life form of the DC Universe to will itself to act, it is basically the first instance of Spiral Power. Ion could see the power's similarity to the green light of Will and soon became really fond of them, though still has a closer relationship the Green Lanterns. It is also fond of James Henry Trotter for overcoming fear, and Team Lightyear for being space superheroes like the Green Lanterns.
- Applies to Adara
- This blue, triple-headed bird is the entity of hope, Adara. Like Ion it is rather passive when it comes to its hosts, being symbiotically bonded rather than taking control. It does affect one's outlook, but when you having a Cosmic Entity in you that's bound to happen. Unlike most of its kind people are all for being its host, but Adara has decided its best to stick with Auriel for the hope she represents. The Hope Entity also holds a fondness towards Ho-oh, being an avian who's appareance is said to bring happiness and hope. It believes Emmet Brickowski is a great means of doing so and likes his optimism.
- As the entity of hope, Adara regards despair as antithetical to its being. Being walking embodiments of despair the Dementors are burned by being anywhere near Adara. The entity holds an antipathy to Junko Enoshima as she believes hope is a lie that must be crushed. Rather than rage at her as it is confident in hope being eternal, Adara tried messing with her by poking holes in her ideology; it said she has hope, namely hope in a world without it. It also pointed out that if she revels in despair of even her own it cannot really be called as such; despair is about the lack of happiness, yet she finds happiness IN it. Junko was left very confused by this and doesn't know why Adara "went easy" on her.
- Bro'dee Walker wonders if Adara could use Junko as a host to restore hope and give her a Ryoko Otonashi personality. Knowing Junko, she might genuinely consider it a Fate Worse than Death and bypass her masochism. Saint Walker also wonders if it could try and deal with Tzeentch. Adara responded that it opposes Tzeentch but believes rather than being some malevolent emotional parasite like Walker thinks, Tzeentch is genuinely a being of hope; just far too extreme for its tastes. It and Tzeentch find some kinship in the latter's positive traits, but in everything else they are foes.
- Context clues imply that Adara was the dove released by Noah. Noah himself doesn't know if this is the case since Adara would've changed drastically since then. Sometimes the Hope Entity will eat from Noah's bird seed. One of these times had Noah give Adara some candy as a treat, which attracted SCP-999 as it brings optimism wherever it goes by being so friendly. Adara is fond of the blob, and may sense its destiny of Its father the Scarlet King ...in one canon at least.
- Applies to the Proselyte
- The tentacled Proselyte is no terror, but alongside Ion and Adara one of the nicer Emotional Entities. The personification of compassion, the Proselyte hopes to expand that and with the ability to use multiple energies of the emotional spectrum simultaneously it is good at this. It may be the entity on the best terms with The Love That Moves The Stars, due to His omnibenevolence. He does wish it could be a bit more orderly but as the first being in its universe to be compassionate, considers such a being wonderful. As a being of compassion it is somewhat baffled by Elmer Albatross acting compassionate despite not feeling compassion.
- The Proselyte finds it difficult to find enemies, as even with evil deities it believes they can be changed to see the light, even if the Indigo Tribe must forcibly convert them. However it does indeed have enemies; the omnimalevolence of Dis is intense even for the Proselyte for he has rejected all that is good from himself, and detests the idea of it spreading compassion out of a delusional belief it would deny souls for Hell and thus catharsis in them sharing his torment. It and Parallax are old enemies, though not to the extent Ion is; the war of compassion and fear is ancient, and the Proselyte denied Parallax a powerful host in Barry Allen.
- Unlike the reprogrammed Indigo rings the Proselyte seeks out the truly compassionate. It is this reason that it seeks the all-loving SCP-999 for a host, and the blob is willing to allow this provided they have mutual control. The SCP Foundation is currently deciding if this should be allowed: benefits are 999's calming abilities will be magnified and become a powerful ally, detriments is that they can't predict any side effects of a Cosmic Entity bonding with an anomaly. The Ethics Community and O-5 Council have yet to reply and this dissapoints the Proselyte.
- The entity naturally gets along with Jiminy Cricket, what with him being The Conscience. Unlike its brethren the Proselyte is somewhat fond of Nerose Satanel, even if it believes his desire to stamp out all other emotions than happiness is going too far; by eliminating sin everyone will be by default compassionate. The Third Hadou God respects the Proselyte but feels its oppositon is a bit hypocritical given it is happy to ally with the Indigo Tribe, however the tentacled indigo being explains there's a certain limit it feels Nerose passed. The Proselyte is also frenemies with Nurgle; Papa Nurgle has compassion towards all life, but the Proselyte believes making bacteria and viruses equal to the point of infecting everything is misguided. As far as Nurgle is concerned the Proselyte is a full friend, but could be more of an equal opportunist.
- Applies to the Predator
- Like Parallax and Ion, the Predator was thought to be something else at first. In its case, Carol Ferris believed the Predator represented her aggressive male side. It split from her and that male persona tried to win over the female side. However it turns out the Predator was in fact the Emotional Entity of love. In its natural state the creature resembles some sort of dragon/dinosaur made of pink/violet crystal. The Crystal Gems were intrigued by this and the being personifying love, speculating that perhaps their ancestors were the ones who's love birthed the Predator.
- Unlike Parallax who corrupts its hosts, the Predator is corrupted by its hosts insecurities and issues when it comes to love. This is why the Predator isn't interested in hosts, alongside the Life Entity (cannot be controlled) and Umbrax (doesn't seem physically capable). While the Predator is inherently pro the House of Love, it is against corrupted and obessive loves. Most members of the Romantic Loss, Infatuation and Obsession and Tainted Love sub-houses would likely make it a dangerous force if it were to bond with them.
- It took a while, but Carol Ferris was able to realize the Predator is love in its pure form and was Good All Along. She has managed to tame and protect it. As with the Proselyte, the Love That Moves The Stars considers it a virtuous force and the Emperor of the Kingdom Dolorus despises it for just that. Another who sees it with contempt is Thouzer, as he believes love is a weakness. However this is on him alone, as the Predator merely regards him as misguided and lost in his conceit. On the opposite side of the coin, it has respect for Anna and Elsa due to their pure familial love for each other.
- The Predator is under the protection of Aphrodite and Shelyn, what with being love goddesses. The former can be questionable at times, but the Predator is love incarnate and that is to be protected. She makes sure to keep the creature away from yanderes which it is a bit afraid of, and Slaanesh who the Predator percieves as a corrupted version of itself or possibly what a Fusion Dance of it and Ophidian would be like. Aphrodite also protects the Predator from Eos. The goddess of the dawn wishes she got to the Predator first as it may have allowed her to overthrow Aphrodite as goddess of love and even free her of the unquenchable lust. The Predator disagrees as it believes bonding with Eos would only make her curse worse.
- Applies to Umbrax
- Even compared to Parallax, Umbrax is the Black Sheep of the Emotional Entities; it is of the hidden underbelly that is the Invisible Emotional Spectrum. There emotions control you, not the other way around, and Umbrax uses it to great effect. Sinestro was able to turn millions into Ultraviolet Lanterns. Umbrax doesn't take willing recruits and regards the Hall of Regret and Shame as potential thralls. Travis Buckle is a surprising choice for its potential slaves due to being a normal human. But he has plenty of guilt to exploit.
- Umbrax is a purple-black sun, who's native location is a phantom galaxy. It is not the only living sun as SCP-1548 and the Lumas are a thing. The latter are terrified by Umbrax, but the former was intrigued by it. Umbrax realized that the Star That Hates would destroy the Earth if it arrives, and while not against that in general Umbrax wants to dominate the minds of humanity instead, so SCP-1548 is getting in the way. 1548 wonders why it's so concerned given Earth beat it back with the power of the white light, but Umbrax countered this by saying "I want to get even".
- Umbrax exploits the emotion of shame and guilt, leading to people siding with Doom. It attracts self-destructive people and causes them to act out on their darkest impulses. This has intrigued the Grand United Alliance of Evil, and though he is currently waiting to see more from it Melkor has hopes he may use this to achieve his "Vile Lantern Corps"note . Umbrax isn't convinced yet.
- It is most pleased by both Junko and Johan's efforts in bringing out the worst of people, inflicting despair and exacerbating guilt and shame. It'd love to make them willing and high ranking members of the Ultraviolet Corps, but they lack a sense of shame or guilt to drawn on. Another being it is fond of is Malal, the outcast Chaos God who represents self-destruction and anarchism. In short, perfect for it and the Ultraviolet Corps' cause. Umbrax itself can relate to being an outcast, as it wasn't part of the conventional emotional spectrum and has spent much of its existence locked away from the rest of the universe. Sinestro is lessed than pleased with Malal.
- Despite Malal's animosity with the Chaos Gods, Umbrax has no problem with them. It actually likes Nurgle for its association with despondency and nihilism, which the shame and guilt of the Ultraviolet Corps can work with.
@fasoman1996 I don't know why but to each their own... anyone else intrested?

- Back when the kingdom of Hallownest was prospering under the Pale King's rule, beneath the throne stood the Five Great Knights, who served as the kingdom's protectors. Among them was Ogrim, best known as the Dung Defender, who was revered for his Undying Loyalty to Hallownest and the Pale King, and participated in many battles and adventures with his fellow knights. Alas, the Infection struck, and Hallownest was brought to ruin, with its inhabitants being turned into monstrous, infected, mindless husks. Dung Defender managed to avoid this fate by isolating himself in the Royal Waterways, where all of refuse had gathered. There, he swore to protect the grove of his fellow knight Isma, who he had a particular kind of close relationship with, and denied access to all visitors, granting passage only to those who prove their honour in combat. Such was the case with the little Knight who he once mistook for one of the aforementioned husks only to get defeated in what he described as "the most majestic knightly fashion". Though unaware of the eventual fate of his King and his fellow knights, he still held hope that they would eventually reunite and that the Hallownest will be reborn again, glorious and bright, as it ever was. Eventually, he went on the journey to make sure the line of Hallownest's Great Knights will not end with him, but not before leaving one parting gift to the little Knight in form of the dung sculpture made in its likeness.
- One day, a foul odor had spread itself across the entire House of Locations. As the investigation was held, the reason behind the odor turned out to be a new room in the sewer with a huge pool of dung and feces in the middle, its smell going all the way to the surface. A group of adventurers was sent there to investigate, but the moment they arrived, the dung in the giant pile began to rustle and scatter, and a big, armor-clad dung beetle bursted out of the dung pool, and, with a Primal Chest-Pound and the loud Battle Cry of "FAAAAAAARRRFFUUUUNNNDADDAAA!", initiated the fight, ignoring the initial pleas of the group that they mean no harm. A battle ensued, and a lot of dung was chucked around, but the group eventually became victorious, launching the beetle warrior into the pile of dung. Several hours after the battle, the group returned into his place, and the warrior emerged from the pool of dung once more, this time much chummier than before. He apologized for the conflict, admitting that it was his mistake and explaining that he was greatly caught off-guard by him suddenly appearing in the unfamiliar place and assumed the worst about the group. Once the misunderstanding was cleared, Dung Defender got his place in the Pantheon, ascended as the God of Sewer Levels. As of the odor problem? It was eventually solved with the channels of pipes and vents that were designed to ward off the smell into some place that nobody visits, and with the addition of a manhole.
- As one can easily tell by his name, Dung Defender has a strong preference for dung. As his primary weapon, he can roll up the dung balls to throw them at enemies (which he can occasionally follow up by rolling into a ball to bounce together with the balls), swim in the dung pool like in the water, and dive into the dung to unburrow himself later, throwing dung balls everywhere. His affinity extends even beyond the combat, as he lives in the cave in the pool of dung and makes dung sculptures. Due to spending so much time in the dung pool, he constantly omits strong dung odor as his Signature Scent, which he calls "the proud odour of the just". As a result, very few deities want to be in close proximity next to him, and he also ended up being the primary target of the many Neat Freaks, who seek to clean him up so that he would no longer spread his "heroic odor" across the entire Pantheon.
- Dung Defender was overjoyed to meet the Knight once more in the Pantheon, and would gladly come to its assistance whenever he can, always happy to have adventures together with a fellow warrior of Hallownest. Much like the Knight, Dung Defender also seeks to permanently put an end to the Radiance and rid the world of her plague. The Radiance, of course, hates him, not just because he's one of the Pale King's followers, but also because she's personally offended by the fact that he managed to avoid her Mystical Plague for unbelievably long time and still manages to avoid it in the Pantheon as well.
- Because of him primarily residing in sewers, Dung Defender found allies in the form of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, another fellow heroic sewer inhabitants, and is glad to provide assistance in fighting their enemies in sewers. At the same time, he also found an enemy in the form of Ramon, a giant man-eating Sewer Gator. Dung Defender had agreed to take care of Ramon in case it would attack the surface in an attempt to prey on innocents, and the fact that Ramon is repulsed by his "heroic odour" has made the job quite easier for him. Also, because of their mutual affinity for dung and shared inhabitat, he managed to befriend Numemon and Sukamon, always willing to stand up to their defense, allowing them to hang out in his temple, and was even willing to partner up with some of them, much to other deities' chagrin (as if his temple wasn't smelly enough). As of their unappealing appearances, he not only doesn't mind it, but even actually finds them cute in a certain way. This earned him a lot of weird looks from other deities, but he doesn't pay much mind to it.
- Given that Dung Defender is an insect, he ended up finding an enemy in the form of Barroth, an insectivorous wyvern that is known to cover itself in mud and submerging itself in the mud pool, similarly to how Dung Defender himself is known to swim in a giant pool of dung. This resulted in an unfortunate conflict once Barroth strayed too far from its House and wandered into the sewers of the House of Locations. Finding the dung beetle to be a decent prey, Barroth immediately charged at Dung Defender, initiating a battle. The battle continued for many hours, given the predator's affinity for dirt making Dung Defender's preferred weapon nigh-ineffective, and only when Dung Defender decided to rely primarily on his curling and bouncing attack he was able to dish out enough damage to the beast to force it to leave. Even then, Barroth is still known to return to Dung Defender's sewer whenever it wants to prey on him, much to his chagrin.
- The Great Mighty Poo was amused to discover of the existance of a bug who also enjoys throwing shit at enemies, and once sent him a letter to arrive into his temple for a visit, in hopes that he would enjoy his singing. Surprisingly, Dung Defender actually enjoyed his songs, which almost made the Great Mighty Poo shed Tears of Joy. Unfortunately, he was not approving of the fact that the Great Mighty Poo throws shit at others For the Evulz, as he himself throws dung only in the name of the noble cause, i.e. protecting Hallownest against threats, guarding the grove he swore to defend, etc.. The Great Mighty Poo was not pleased with that, and their friendship ended as soon as it began. While the aftermath does not prevent the Dung Defender from enjoying his songs (and the Great Mighty Poo would be very eager to sing at his request), it the end, they are still enemies, and should the Poo attempt to bring harm to innocents, Dung Defender would stand by their side and engage him in the glorious poop-throwing battle.
- He was initially uneasy with Khepri, another fellow dung beetle deity, due to his close association with the sun, as it reminded him a lot about the Radiance. However, once the Dawn Bringer approached him, he proved himself to be surprisingly amiable to Dung Defender, and also revealed that not only he's not related to her, but also outright resents her for her sins. This made Ogrim breathe a big sigh of relief, and they've been on friendly terms ever since. The scarab god greatly appreciates Dung Defender's Undying Loyalty to his King and dedication to his duties in preserving Hallownest and protecting the grove of his fellow knight, Isma, and the Defender himself in turn is very pleased with the Dawn Bringer's own dedication to his role in maintaining the day-and-night cycle. Dung Defender even made two sculptures of Khepri, one made in the likeness of his human-with-scarab-head form, and other in the likeness of his scarab form, and offered them as a gift to him, which he accepted. Both sculptures are still kept in the Dawn Bringer's temple to this very day, preserved and taken care of, much to other deities' chagrin, as they can barely stomach the foul stench of refuse produced by these "gifts".
- His Undying Loyalty to his King earned him respect from various other loyal knights such as Lancelot and Gawain, and his odor did little to lessen this respect, a gesture Dung Defender greatly appreciated. Similarly, Vanilla Ice also considered his loyalty worthy of respect, but given that he's a villain who is loyal to a cruel mass murderer, his respect made Dung Defender feel a bit uneasy.
- In the House of Dreams, he's known to take another form, known as the White Defender. In this form, he looks identical to his real self, but his armor is now shining white, and he's also much faster and more powerful, and reacts gallantly to each defeat by becoming stronger, reaching his maximum limit only after 4 defeats. This was the form Dung Defender possessed at his prime back during the golden age of Hallownest. Some Dream Walkers were known to challenge him in this form, and the White Defender would be glad to accept these challenges. In the rare cases they defeat him, they learn more of his internal thoughts, and discover that, underneath his jolly external behavior, he dearly misses his King and his fellow knights, and desperately wants to reunite with them.
My friends... I will protect our dear Kingdom. Have faith in me! We will all meet again. I promise it...
Your Majesty... Have faith in me!
Hegemol... I miss your humour...
Ze'mer... I miss your stories...
Dryya... I miss your wisdom...
Isma... I miss.. I miss you...- Once in his travels, Dung Defender saw a familiar figure. Recognizing the looks as the armor of the Mighty Hegemol, he immediately rushed to meet his old friend...only to be met with a great disappointment once it turned out that the one wearing the armor was not Hegemol, but a maggot who stole his armor for personal use. Though he allowed the False Knight to keep the armor, understanding his desire to protect his siblings, Dung Defender still wants to do nothing with the one who stole the armor of his close friend.
- Due to the similarities in their pasts, Dung Defender gets along well with the Knight of Despair, a sad magical girl who, much like him, was a virtuous knight who dedicated herself to her kingdom and its people, but had everything she fought for getting taken away from her. Unlike Dung Defender, who continued holding on to hope that, one day, Hallownest will be reborn, glorious and bright, the Knight of Despair ended up falling into permanent despair and succumbed to the corruption, and as such, he feels pity for her and hopes that one day, she may be able to rediscover the hope she lost. The knight in turn respects the Defender for his Undying Loyalty to his kingdom, and holds him in high regard, especially given how he turned out in the end when compared to her. The fact that she doesn't mind his odour was also appreciated by the beetle. Of course, given her destructive rampages that come up whenever the one she blesses dies or loses sanity, he won't shy away from stopping her when it's needed.
- For the honour of the King! For the honour of the Five! For the honour of Hallownest!
Dunno, and a general rule of note is to be careful of your choices. My best bet here is to just leave the ideas in your sandbox and wait and see if anyone stumbles upon them + takes an interest to the point where they'd PM you to adopt it.
"Money is the goddamn plan! Have some faith, y'all!"Not interested.
Time to explore the world!Sorry but you already had your chance to be honest. Begging will not do you favors.
I swear Loid, you can't draw worth shit!@Wootzitz
Nate Adams is another mons protagonist who deal in mischievous spirits called Yo-Kai.
THE GOLDEN AGE WILL RETURN AGAIN!Apologies for taking a bit long, but The Coachman is now located in, well, Locations, being The Unholy Occupant of Deceptively Fun Activities.
"Money is the goddamn plan! Have some faith, y'all!"@Woot: There are also Demon Tamers such as SMT I's Kazuya, Aleph, Tadano Hitonari, Flynn, Nanashi, Kazuya Minegishi, and Hibiki Kuze, though Minegishi's story deconstructs the whole Mons concept into a bloody conclusion. I don't count the Demi-Fiend since he's part-demon himself and they sort of act more like fellow party members.

- Jonas is a young pre-teen boy living in an isolated town known as the Community, a place where everyone's lifelong job is decided by a commitee of elders and repeated trangressions are dealt with the rule-breaker being "Released to Elsewhere". He is anxious to know what role he will be assigned, as he will attend the Ceremony of Twelve, where all children who turn twelve will receive their lifelong jobs. During the ceremony, he is singled out as he is to receive a very important job; the Receiver of Memory. He meets the Giver of Memories, who was once a Receiver like him, and begins his special training which he must keep a secret from his friends and family. It turns out that his role is to hold all the memories that the people of the Community discarded to create their perfect utopia, such as colour, animals, war, emotion, free will, love, and music. As Jonas furthers his training, he grows increasingly detached from his family and peers, as he knows what they don't. He learned of the Givers previous apprentice and daughter Rosemary, who let herself be released as she couldn't handle the memories she has been given. Eventually, his family is given an infant boy named Gabriel to take care of. However, due to Gabriel's weak constitution, they are considering release for him. Jonas is horrified to learn what being "Released to Elsewhere" actually means; government execution by lethal injection. Jonas and the Giver agree to a plan to have Jonas flee the Community, letting the memories flood back to the people and the Giver will stay behind to help them cope. However, the plan goes a bit off the rails due to Jonas learning that Gabriel will be released the following morning, prompting him to escape with Gabriel in tow. Their escape is fraught with danger, and their ultimate fates are left unknown.
- A blizzard was raging within the Hall of Ice and Cold, and Mei-Ling Zhou was trekking across the frozen landscape for her research. Suddenly, she spotted a collapsed person in the distance, and quickly ran to approach them. To her horror, she saw that the figure was an unconscious pre-teen boy clutching an infant in his arms, both nearby a turned over sled and suffering from hypothermia. She quickly called an emergency helicopter to carry them to the House of Health and Diseases. It was thanks to Mei's quick thinking that the two managed to recover back to full health. When Jonas woke up in an unfamiliar hospital and that Gabriel was missing, he panicked, at which the nurses and doctors assigned to him explained that he's currently in a place called the Trope Pantheons, and Gabriel is being taken care of in another room and is recovering smoothly. When asked about what happened before his discovery, he told them about what he experienced in the Community and that he tried to escape with Gabriel in two to prevent him from being "released". When Jonas and Gabriel were discharged from the hospital, Jonas was given the title of Holy Protector of Lost Common Knowledge as a way to give him and Gabriel a new place to stay, as well as allowing Jonas to become Gabriel's legal guardian. Jonas, though unsure of his new surroundings, nonetheless will start a new life within the Pantheon.
- Living in the Pantheon was quite overwhelming for Jonas initially, for it contains many aspects that the Community lacks. Colour, animals, war, emotion, free will, love, and music... all of these aspects permeate every corner of the Pantheon, and the people who live in the Pantheon are very unique individuals rather than the uniform, emotionally suppressed people of the Community. In the end, he appreciates that he is able to truly experience these once foreign things in the flesh instead of relying on his memories, and has made sure to let Gabriel experience them too. He deeply respects the Houses that represent those aspects, though it's more of a begrudging sort for the House of War due to the horrors those conflicts bring, but he knows that the memories of war can help people remember their mistakes and try to better themselves in the future. He tends to make visits to these Houses to learn more about the things that the Community derived itself of. Even so, he is concerned with the state of the Community; how are they faring, now that he has vanished from the place entirely? He doesn't know how they potentially handled the memories if they came back to them at all, and the uncertainty frightens him.
- In the Community, there is one value that is practiced and believed in fervently; Sameness. The Community is heavily regulated so that a perfect, orderly utopia can exist and people can live without any strife in their lives. Concepts like the colour, strong emotions, music, and the ability to choose have been heavily suppressed or outright eliminated from the populace, and knowledge of other concepts like war, death, suffering, and animals are known only to the Givers and Receivers of Memory. While Jonas is no longer living in such a place now, he has gained knowledge of those who wish to impose such extreme orderliness onto others. The Grand United Alliance of Law is dedicated to bringing total law and order to the Pantheon, of which Jonas was disturbed to find out that much of the leadership is consisted of those who are obsessed with subjugating others to their will and stamping out free will. YHVH and IT in particular unnerve him greatly due to the former's massive ego and contempt for others and the latter's ability to mind control others into acting in repetitive, uniform ways. Nerose Satanael also creeps him out in how he bended the entire universe to his will, creating a sinless utopia at the cost of free will. Upon hearing about the Community, Nerose is impressed how ordinary humans managed to get close to a sinless society. Another figure he dislikes is Horde Prime, who aims to control or destroy the entire cosmos and subjugate them to his empire, with everyone under his control being a part of a Hive Mind giving him troubled thoughts. The uniformed synchronicity of the Delightful Children send chills down his spine, as they are like the doctrine of Sameness brought to its logical conclusion by acting like one person. On the other hand, he was initially cautious of Starlight Glimmer due to her being the leader of the anti-Cutie Mark "Our Town", but realized that she has left those days behind and worked to reform for her actions, which made him warm up to her and become good, if awkward acquaintences. Hearing of the Community made Starlight rather embarrassed and mortified in that it reminded her of her darkest days and gave her unsettling knowledge that there are people out there like her past self.
- (no emotions (Cyrus, Nobodies, Flowey, Ainz Ooal Gown)) One of the defining traits of Sameness is emotional suppression, where feeling strong emotions as well as feelings like love and sexual attraction are kept at bay through drugs and stern reminders.
- The Community may look like an ideal place to live, but its utopian facade belies its true oppressive dystopian nature, where basic freedoms are stamped out in the name of a harmonious lifestyle and repeated transgressions are punished by death. It wouldn't take long for Jonas to meet up with others who lived in dystopian societies, namely Winston Smith, Julia, Offred, Guy Montag, and Katniss Everdeen. As he listened to each of their stories, he grew more and more horrified by their more blatantly oppressive societies, where mass surveillance, discrimination, censorship, and tortures are carried out by uncaring, tyrannical governments. The group also heard of Jonas' tale, and expressed much sympathy for his plights. Katniss is particular has begun to teach Jonas how to hunt and defend himself, as he was quite underprepared to survive in the wilderness during his escape. He was mortified to find out that those who perpetuate those systems, like O'Brien, Big Brother and Captain Beatty are present within the Pantheon, and he has made it clear that he will continue to oppose them for as long as they continue their oppression. He finds the Sybil System to be too uncomfortably familiar, as they monitor people's emotional and mental states, and often the punishment for excessive stress is death.
- All Jonas ever knew in his life prior to his twelveth birthday was life within the Community. An isolated settlement, it has little contact with other towns and no one is allowed outside the town borders. He only truly crossed the borders when he fled away with Gabriel in tow. The psychic teenagers of Group 1 can relate to his circumstances, as they also grew up in an isolated community that appears idyllic on the surface, but hides many ugly secrets. Jonas is glad to find more people who can relate to his predicaments, but was rather disheartened to learn about the terrible fates that some of them suffered. They grew mutually interested in their powers, with Jonas being in awe of their psychic abilities and Group 1 being curious of Jonas' memory transfer powers. Truman Burbank also lived in Seahaven Island his whole life, unaware that he was living in a reality TV show his whole life until he was 30 years old. Jonas was horrified to hear of how his entire life was a lie, but was glad that he finally managed to escape into the real world. Likewise, Eren Yeager grew up within the Walls that keep the man-eating Titans out, and longed to go out the walls and experience true freedom. While Jonas did sympathize with him, knowledge of Eren's increasingly drastic and destructive actions in pursuit of his goals made Jonas incredibly uncomfortable with him, so he keeps his distance.
- (being given a special role) Of all occupations that one can hold within the Community, none are more important and revered than the Receiver of Memory.
- The position of the Receiver of Memory has been passed down ever since the Community's founding, with the former Receiver (now referred as the Giver) gradually transferring their memories into the Receiver and informing them of the truth of the Community and their role. This power transfer ritual is similar to a peculiar Quirk named One for All, where the current wielder can pass on the Quirk to someone else, becoming stronger with each passing holder. It has been passed down many generations, with the newest holder, Izuku Midoriya being trained under the previous wielder, the number one hero All Might. Jonas and Izuku know how much responsibility those positions carry, and bonded over their shared struggles. Jonas was in awe of Izuku's power and steadfast determination and was humbled to meet All Might in the flesh, while Izuku and All Might felt sympathy for Jonas due to learning many uncomfortable truths about his hometown, but were glad that he decided to take his destiny in his own hands.
- Jonas was not the first Receiver for the current Giver; his daughter Rosemary was to be the Receiver of Memory. However, she could not handle the emotional strain of holding the painful memories and chose to commit suicide by letting herself undergo Release, which made her memories enter the minds of the populace. It is now forbidden for almost everyone to mention her and her name ever again, and future Givers and Receivers cannot apply for Release. The Giver was devastated by her loss, but he began to regain his hope when Jonas became his apprentice. It wasn't long before he bumped into Rey, who also served a similar role to him. Luke Skywalker fell into a depressive slump after his attempt to mentor his nephew Ben Solo failed and he turned to the dark side, only finding hope as he took Rey in as his student. Rey and Jonas mutually respect each other for their strong wills, with Jonas admiring her strength and Rey advising him to stay strong.
- The position of the Giver and Receiver is an odd one; every holder has the ability to transfer memories to anyone they wish through touch, and they are entrusted to keep passing down these memories through successive generations as living databases. These memories are the last remnants of life before Sameness, so keeping them preserved is top priority. If a Giver or Receiver dies unexpectedly, the memories that have stored will be transferred to the populace, which will cause a massive panic as the people of the Community are completely unequipped to deal with the sudden flood of unknown memories and emotions. There happened to be another Deity whose memories make him coveted; SCP-073, whose long life and photographic memory makes him a perfect repository and fountain of information. Jonas finds the man to be a relaxing presance, though he was surprised when he saw his rot abilities for the first time. He was absolutely horrified to hear how Szilard Quates devours his fellow immortals to obtain their memories, and fears that Szilard would try to eat him too if he ever found out about his memories, so he stays far away from the man whenever possible. Of all possible abilities and powers in the Pantheon, he's most fearful of those who are able to manipulate, remove, and insert false memories in others. He was hesitant upon meeting Namine knowing about her memory-altering powers, but warmed up to her upon her informing him that he never uses her powers maliciously, and that she was forced by Organization XIII to use them to harm Sora. On the other hand, he's very nervous when it comes to Shukuro Tsukishima, knowing that his ability to insert himself in others memories can seriously harm his memories which can cause untold consequences for the Community.
- (loss of innocence)
- (escape)
- Some time after Jonas arrived to the Pantheon, the prophets at the House of Prophecy received visions of Jonas' future: He would go on to forge his own small civilization named the Village and appoint himself as the Leader, where he uses his powers to "see beyond" to give people their roles in the community and "real names" based on their occupations. The Village is a genuinely nice place to live, a safe haven for the lost and broken, where everyone genuinely fits their assigned posts. He later gets married to a woman named Kira and meets Claire, the birthmother of Gabriel. The prophets are unsure if the visions they received will come true, especially as it seems that those sequence of events happened in a world where Jonas never entered the Pantheon and Jonas is currently a permanent resident of the realm. While Jonas is unaware of their discovery, he has a nagging feeling that he and Gabriel will one day return to their world and continue their journey.
I wonder who would fit Anarchism
Suggestion time, especially since these profiles have been stuck in my sandbox for a while collecting dust
- Sekiro/The Wolf from Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice for Continuing is Painful. The game which borrows from various mechanics from Dark Souls (since it is made by the same developer) defines itself not just being a near straightforward action game, but has a revive mechanic that the player can utilize as a second chance in battle. It is costly for a number of reasons in that he loses half of the money and experience he collects if he is revived as well as another mechanic known as Dragonrot which not only lessens the amount he can collect (if he keeps dying too many times) but also halt quest lines until he is cured from it.
- The Soul of Cinder from Dark Souls III for Final-Exam Boss. This boss is the final boss of the game (and arguably the series if one finishes off Gael first). Those who fight this entity will use various movesets that resemble the Chosen Undead (the main character) found on the first Dark Souls and after his first phase, will use Gwyn's moveset as a final resort against the player character. The ascension of the Soul of Cinder will begin the Dark Souls overhaul starting from III up to I.

- Dan Hibiki is a very interesting character. Motivated by the death of his father Go at the hands of Sagat, he went to train under Gouken to become a powerful martial artist but after learning that Dan was driven by revenge, he promptly kicked him out and Dan decided to train under his own martial arts, the Saikyou Style. He then went on to challenge Sagat to a match and due to the lingering guilt and pity from the latter he decided to throw the match and Dan emerged "victorious", going on to open his own Dojo.
- So to no one's surprise his fighting style is....not good at all, being a derivative of the Ansatsuken Gouken taught him and made in Dan's own style but mimicked rather poorly. For that reason, Dan was awarded with the Joke Character title which naturally didn't amuse Dan at all but he decided to prove the court of gods wrong by opening the Saikyo Style Dojo and becoming the best martial artist in the Pantheon.
- Despite being the quintessential Joke Character, Dan Hibiki is not the butt monkey of the gods, even though people drew much amusement from seeing him challenge powerful fighters like Bruce Lee, Chuck Norris and Jackie Chan by himself and losing repeatedly. He's still convinced himself that he's the best around, and nothing's gonna ever keep him down. And somehow, he actually got better, slightly at least, which caught a few people of guard given how much of a joke he tends to be.
- He shares a lot of things in common with Ryo Sakazaki and Robert Garcia right down to how the former and Dan have a similarly styled fireball and the fact that he is such a weak fighter might be a intentinal jab from Dan's creators much to his dismay. Dan obviously has a bit of a rivalry going on with those two as well as Ryo's sister Yuri, trying to prove that his Saikyo Style is superior to their own martial art.
- Received a brutal beatdown at the hands of Kazuya Mishima, who is a lot less sympathetic to his plight than Dan's real rival, Sagat. Dan's spent his time training (and training others) for the day when he can have his revenge. Luckily for him, his personal students made their way to rescue him from a rather grizzly fate and now that all three are in the Pantheon, Dan is planning to get back at Kazuya somehow. Both Sakura and Blanka are a bit worried about Dan slipping into a revenge story again, knowing that Mishima isn't as merciful as Sagat was.
- Dan found himself in a match against world-champion Mr. Satan and he saw an opportunity to prove to the world that he was the better fighter. Unfortunately Dan lost as usual, this time exploding from swallowing a jukebox and managed to see his father in the afterlife before being brought back. Regardless, he has since swore to keep training and attempt a rematch with Mr. Satan, who will gladly challenge him again after their battle suffered quite a number of hiccups.
- To the surprise of many, Dan is actually able to access the Satsui no Hado. Fortunately, the one time he tried using it in a fight against Sakura, he tripped over her backpack and immediately lost it. Ryu knowing the dangers of such power has tried to warn Dan about the potential struggles he could suffer if he felt to the allure of the Satsui no Hado but Dan refuses to listen to someone like Ryu. And then others like Akuma or Kage feel like he worthless and couldn't even hope to use its power at its full potential.
- Dan is still a bit resentful to Gouken and his students by proxy for denying to train him but at this point he is content with his own Saikyo Style. This and coupled with his own arrogance made him notice a particular powerful Martial Artist that also thinks was denied his destiny in Tai Lung and Dan sought to challenge him just to test his power. Needless to say, Dan was utterly trounced by Tai Lung in the process and reason he survived was because the snow leopard didn't even care to finish him off. Even Tai Lung's own enemies, the Furious Five, find Dan arrogance and his lack of actually backing up his claims to be quite silly while Po is a little more sympathetic to Dan, trying to help him with his training but Dan continously refuses to train in another style that isn't his.
- In terms of taunts, he may rival Shao Kahn in terms of how much taunting he can do in the middle of a fight, to borderline suicidal degrees many may add. But still, Dan knows better that to challenge the Emperor as he fears he will tear him to shred if provoked.
- He and Cirno actually get along quite well, given their shared status a "jokes" even though Cirno tries her hardest to prove she is the "strongest fairy" and Dan is sympathetic to her cause. Similarly, he and Krillin are on pretty good terms cause he knows what it feels to be outclassed even if Dan refuses to accept his reality, doesn't help that Krillin is pretty strong on his own even if he hardly shows it.
- "Dan Hibiki...is back after the ultimate improvement!"
Zote the Mighty is another fellow "joke character". Dan Hibiki once tried to take Zote under his wing to teach him his Saikyo Style to "awaken his true potential". Zote reluctantly accepted his offer, hoping to see what Dan has to offer. Unfortunately, not even Dan would have patience for Zote and his obnoxious attitude, combined with blatant disrespect to his mentor, not to mention his absolutely pitiful fighting skills and complete inability to harm anyone no matter how hard he tries. As a result, the "knight of great renown" got expelled from his dojo.
