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.

- 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.

- 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.

What does that have to do with the Pantheons?
Everyone look at my sandboxAnything for Sakazuki? Need to fix several links, so dont mention that by this point.

- Others: Mary Lennox
- Rivals: Konrad Curze
- Enemies:
- One Piece: Monkey D. Luffy, Portgas D. Ace, [[Pantheon/Surrogate Relationships Edward Newgate]], Marshall D. Teach, Nico Robin, Jinbei, Sabo, Kaido, Charlotte Linlin, Donquixote Doflamingo, Crocodile, every criminal out there in the sea...
- Others: House of Crime, the House of Villains, Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger, Popeye, Char Aznable, Zaheer, Bolin, Samuel Vimes, Jim Raynor, Arcturus Mengsk, Lelouch vi Brittania
- Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: Monkey D. Garp
- Respected by: Dark Judges
- A former Marine Admiral now Fleet Admiral, Sakazuki popularly goes by Akainu otherwise known as the Red Dog. Representing Absolute Justice, he punishes those against the World Government’s laws—anything that resembles a transgression being met with extreme force by him. He goes as far as to murder civilians if a potential criminal hides amongst them, kills soldiers who are not holding to their duty, and even challenges his superiors because he does not believe they do enough. Sakazuki’s ruthlessness has made him The Dreaded for every pirate, rebel, and bandit across the vast world. This only seemed to worsen when he ascended from being an Admiral to Fleet Admiral, therefore controlling much of the military force the World Government has to offer.
- The Straw Hats are especially now up at arms now that Sakazuki ascended. He may not discriminate between pirates based on hatred though even he acknowledged that the Straw Hats are becoming more powerful as their notoriety rises. If any of the Emperors were within the same room together and he had to pick who should die first, Straw Hat Luffy will be picked. And there is the elephant in the room regarding his killing of Ace, making the mission to rescue him All for Nothing. He had Ace become reckless by insulting Whitebeard repeatedly, something Ace took heavy offense towards. Sakazuki is not happy to see Ace and Whitebeard again here as even he knows that the decrepit old man would be a difficult opponent to deal with as he had personally known badly. Regardless, he does not wish to complain on these new circumstances and would carry out that same extermination. It was especially relieving Luffy and Whitebeard held back Ace from getting himself killed again to not avenge his own death but to punish him for the insults to Whitebeard needlessly still.
- What Sakazuki will complain about is that his work forces him to be behind a desk instead of going after pirates personally. Being a Fleet Admiral is a more tactical position than actively fighting, so Sakazuki has to enforce his military procedure standards to replace being physically present. The Five Elders force him to do this and he does not approve, believing the Five Elders would rather save face and to appease the Celestial Dragons rather than pursuing order. If Sakazuki found out the Five Elders are taking orders from a higher being which violates their doctrine then perhaps Sakazuki will finally have something to destroy brutally...
- On his free days, Sakazuki attempts to absolutely nuke the Houses of Crime and Villains, believing all the inhabitants there should be wiped out no matter how severe their crimes are. He sees all of them equally worthy of death and if the Pantheon’s authority is so complacent on letting them subvert peace, then Sakazuki must place justice at his own hands. Of course, his efforts are pointless as those Houses are pretty crappy places to begin with and all his constant magma attacks only add to their miserableness. The Dark Judges are appreciative of Sakazuki’s efforts and asked him to aid them with stamping other criminals everywhere. Sakazuki while impressed by their unflinching justice, sees even their actions on exterminating everyone for the most minuscule of transgressions disturbing. This is all considering he disapproved the Grand Line being nuked to oblivion by a former Marine because of pirates’ presence as well.
- Popeye calls his tenure as a Fleet Admiral to be a disaster as no matter how brutal justice the Marine dishes out, the quantity and quality of pirates offset their efforts after the Paramount War ushered a new age for piracy. Taken further when one sees that the Four Emperors are making their move against the World Government already. Popeye may not have ever had an authority position but even he sees that Sakazuki has his priorities placed at the wrong places instead of simply trying to repair the Marines’s reputation after Dressrosa by trying to arrest the former Warlords to save face. Sakazuki ignored those criticisms, saying that Popeye is (while respectable) too old to understand those tactical decision he made were necessary for maintaining the World Government
- Sounds like Char Aznable and even wears primarily red for their outfits. Both are quite distrusting of each other as a result, as exist on the opposite ideal spectrum. Sakazuki sees the Red Comet as a criminal who repeatedly sides with those against the established government (Zeon and AEUG), to the point Sakazuki believes Char rebels for the sake of it. Char would not contest to that sentiment against him and the Red Comet himself sees Sakazuki as an oppressor just like the Earth Federation and Titan. Char is somehow able to outrun whatever Sakazuki throws at him, even if it is a meteor of all things (funnily ironic enough).
- Thought the sea was more than enough space for pirates to dwell at but somehow pirates managed to adapt to a vaster sea that not even the World Government has jurisdiction over. That place being [1] apparently. Sakazuki is disgusted that pirates have now fled farther than the Marines could go but realized there was opportunity to be found. While as a respectable Marine officer, he cannot just simply confiscate space-travel technology from ships nor can he just outfit the Marines with it without the Pantheon authorities giving the stinky eye to him. However, he can legally confiscate pirate possessions and gain the technology if he were to arrest/kill pirates to seize their property. The most technologically developed pirates that Sakazuki eyes to arrest are the Gokaigers. Technology based off the Gokai Galleon (thank you Vegapunk for being smart enough to do this) would essentially make the Marines strong enough to curb any criminals out there. If only he could catch those damnable Gokaigers first....
- Has more respect for YHVH than his actual superiors. YHVH does not bother with politics, only wanting to see order established as soon and swiftly as possible. The Five Elders are more interested with keeping their reputations and appealing to the Celestial Dragons during Sakazuki’s tenure as Fleet Admiral. Though he respects YHVH, he is more interested towards Satan the Judge. Satan will uphold the law his creator no matter what, delivering brutal attack to those who transgress them. That includes YHVH himself as well if Satan sees his creator went against his own words. Sakazuki respects Satan having a similar ideology to his own in those regards.
- Sakazuki dislikes Konrad Curze, though somehow also respects him along the same lines. Konrad Curze is brutal against criminals even now and wants nothing more than to be criminals’ personal boogeyman so to speak. Sakazuki would be fine at that, even impressed. Although Curze serving for Chaos means he betrayed his government and now had become nothing more than a vigilante. At the same time, Sakazuki could not find himself to truly hate Curze for his deeds for justice and wishes to recruit him as a Marine if he ditches being with Chaos. Curze refused and sees Sakazuki as an ineffective husk of a man who was better off being an active Admiral. Not to say Sakazuki disagrees with that sentiment but found it offensive nonetheless.
- Bolin sees Sakazuki as a Shadow Archetype for him, not just because they both have lava-centered powers. Bolin once served under Kuvira to oppress Earth Kingdom inhabitance and was naive to realize that what he was fighting for a tyrant. Sakazuki brings up bad Kuvira memories for him for also being a brutal “peace enforced”, as Bolin wonders if he simply continued to serve Kuvira without question he may have ended up becoming like Sakazuki. Yes, magma-meteors are cool but Bolin would rather be an actual good person over it than any day. Likewise, Sakazuki sees Bolin as a disappointment—the young man being too weak willed to see justice through and agrees with Kuvira that her rule would have had more competency behind it. “Earth Kingdom citizens are used to being oppressed, so they ought to shut up and listen to the authorities,” is what Sakazuki would say.
- He equally hates revolutionaries as much as pirates. Jim Raynor, Arcturus Mengsk, and Lelouch vi Brittania are amongst those he finds nothing but scorn against for causing mayhem to topple down governing bodies similar to the World Government. This statement seems hypocritical, considering that Sakazuki allows Garp—father of the most wanted man and grandfather of the Fifth Emperor—to still work alongside the Marines. Sakazuki would have thrown him out and perhaps had him charged for treason but the respect Garp garnered is too valuable to lose. He lets the family of criminals fight against criminals. How ironic.
- Though Sakazuki is usually seen as ruthless, monstrous figure by most people who do not share similar ideologies, one of the few saving graces his character has aside from his (objectively) respective loyalty to the law is his gardening skills when he has free time to utilize those skills. When those times of becoming a Fleet Admiral cone first and Sakazuki cannot tend to his garden at all, he lets Mary Lennox tend it for him. The military leader and the young girl met when Sakazuki called for a gardener and she was a recommendation. She tends to the garden fine and Sakazuki respects her for it. Mary does not know that Sakazuki is absolutely nuts if he sees anything that resembles a violation against the law yet, though she may not care if she does. It is his business and she should do her best to respect it... though she did have to chastise him for calling her to fix a Noodle Incident where Sakazuki had lava pour across half the garden. People still wonder how she got away with that.
- Sakazuki turned out to be so hot, he was able to out-fist Fire-Fist Ace. Such jokes will have the joker eliminated almost immediately.
- “Justice is absolute! No forgiveness for those who oppose it!"

Pantheon server for all who click here. Freaking lost $410 and I am hunting down for a nuke to reign down.Mina Loveberry, Seryu Ubiquitous and Zamasu are also villains who believe that they are doing good.

I’m plotting my schemes wherever I go! They’re perfect in every way…Akainu would likely consider Zamasu insane, however he would still respect him due to how alike they are. I imagine Zamasu would feel the same and regard him as one of few mortals he respects, even if he will still destroy him

- Silver the Hedgehog is a psychokinetic hedgehog from at least 200 years in the future. He first appeared in Sonic the Hedgehog (2006), initially as an antagonist as he believed Sonic was to blame for the monstrous Iblis ruining his future. Eventually this future was undone, but there were more time travel shenanigans and other bad futures that he showed up to try and solve...his success rate is somewhat dubious, though. Thanks to his psychokinesis he can catch and throw objects, or people if sufficiently enraged. They also allow give him flight.
- Was once scorned by the gods, especially for his performance during the year 2006. However, once that was erased from collective memory, and Sonic's birthday allowed him to prove the full power of his psychokinesis, many were more than willing to allow Silver to ascend. In spite of the timeline being changed, Silver still has the scorn of JonTron, over the boss battle he had with Sonic in Soleanna. The other Sonic deities are more forgiving. Some of them have more noticeable interactions.
- Blaze was his closest friend and ally in the Crisis City timeline. How that's possible considering she's from another universe is unknown. The fact Solaris exists in the pantheon has re-ignited their old memories of one another, though they have been seen getting along in some non-canon spin-off games. Interestingly despite not meeting each other in canon after the timeline reset, they have the same arch-enemy in Eggman Nega. Granted, his own timeline is rather inconsistent; officially he's from the future, but his reason for being in the present Sol Dimension has never been explored.
- Got off on the wrong foot with Sonic; first by trying to kill him as he thought he was the Iblis Triggernote and then by being a dickish rival in the reset timeline. Over time he's become nicer and regards Sonic as a friend, but still considers him a rival. He also got off the wrong foot with Amy because of trying to go after Sonic, but her positive presence aided in him avoiding falling into Knight Templar territory.
- Shadow was the one who made Silver realize Mephiles was manipulating him to ruin the future, and along with Sonic they defeated Solaris and allowed Sonic to go back and remove the entity from history. The two have worked together in the rebooted timeline, and Silver seems to think Shadow's cool. Because they share some physical similaritiesnote , their Arthurian counterparts were Lancelot and Galahad, and are similar to Vegeta and Future Trunks some have speculated they're father and son. Officially they're not, but since Shadow could survive to Silver's era the theory was in the realm of possibility.
- Since Eggman wants to conquer the world and this doesn't bode well for his future, Silver doesn't like him. He played a part in the Resistance against him, though unlike his former enforcer Infinite he doesn't hate him. Eggman is somewhat thankful of the hedgehog for thwarting the schemes of his impersonating descendant Eggman Nega, who Silver was able to remove from the pantheon. He will work with Silver to thwart Mephiles' villainous goals, even if it's playing pranks on Frollo and Gaston. They've also been known for working together to stop Zamasu, who Silver finds eerily similar to Solarisnote .
- One of Silver's biggest flaws is his naivety. Lack of proper context has resulted in him butting heads with a number of good deities, but once the truth is revealed he joined up with them to fight against the real threat.
- After hearing of the Elf Wars and Neo Arcadia he accused the Mega Man X era X and Zero of becoming villains in their future and tried to stop them. They informed them that the tyrant Copy X and Omega aren't them, though the do understand why he made the mistake; Copy X was a perfect replication of X, except childish and dangerous without the life experience, and Omega inhabits the original body of Zero. Zero was also created to be a weapon of mass destruction in the first place. Now Silver is working to thwart their doubles, and Dr Weil, alongside the two Maverick Hunters.
- He later fought Danny Fenton due to believing that he would become Dark Danny. Danny explained that originally, he did, however like Silver he believed there is no fate but what we make of it and prevented himself from becoming Dark Danny. Besides, while Danny has potential to become evil like anyone, Dark Danny fully a future Danny but his ghost half after overshadowing Vlad Master's ghost half and becoming something worse. Silver muses that in hindsight, he may have become a Knight Templar villain had he not been convinced not to kill Sonic.
- Similarly he and John Connor found themselves in conflict because in one timeline he was Reforged into a Minion; the T-3000. That incarnation of John is still enemies with Silver, but most versions of John accepted Silver. John sympathized with his desire to change the future for the better, since despite his and his family's attempts he can't seem to get rid of SKYNET. He noticed that due to his similarity to Future Trunks, he had a bit of his dad Kyle Reese in him. After this talk the only other time he and Connor were in conflict was a case of mistaken identity with his "Uncle Bob" and the T-800 that was sent to terminate Sarah before John could be born. Uncle Bob doesn't hold it against him since SKYNET likes the 101 model.
- Envy attempted to exploit Silver's naivety by impersonating Sonic and other heroic deities in order to frame them. A lot of this was For the Evulz, but it was also a means of turning Silver into a Spanner in the Works as he wasn't familiar with Envy's track record so Father could be less concerned about someone from the future intervening in his plans. However Silver's time in the pantheon has made him smarter and less naive, so while he was fooled somewhat he acted more civil to the heroes he was impersonating. Silver managed to piece two and two together and was advised to check if someone was way heavier than they should be; it almost certainly means Envy is impersonating them since they can't change their mass.
- After the experience with Envy and encountering a number of evil doubles, Silver has kept his eye on the House of Derivatives for said "evil doubles". He soon became opposed to the evil actions of the Dark Knights and Homelader. More specifically the TV incarnation of Homelander. The comic Homelander is a pretty lousy person but he's trying to improve himself as he only did the horrible things he did because Black Noir gaslit him with far worse atrocities. On a sillier note, Silver gets annoyed whenever people call him Pothead the Porcupine; not his fault how his head quills look.
- Barbatos has noticed Silver's opposition to the Dark Knights and decided to fashion a new dark universe based around his fears; where Silver succeeded at killing Sonic, and Solaris re-emerged early. Despite managing to bring Sonic back and fight, it went poorly and Silver was forced to try and seal the reduced flame of the defeated Solaris in a desperate bid for the power to restore the broken timeline. However that Silver had different plans and "Solar Silver" ruled the remains with an iron fist. Silver has grown an utter hatred of Barbatos for engineering a multiverse where all stories end badly
- With their similar histories and goals, Silver has become friends with Lucina and Future Trunks. The three of them have together formed a bond, and they'll help the other in need. This friendship has also placed Silver in the crosshairs of The Dahaka, which hunts down Lucina for her actions in changing her fate (and no doubt would probably go after him and Trunks next if it ever caught her). The three of them have stood together and beaten back the horned Guardian of the Timeline on a number of occasions. Silver also became close friends with Galahad as he's a pure-hearted knight and hero that Silver looks up to. As mentioned, Silver IS Galahad in another universe.
- Lucina's current voice also reminds him of his good friend Blaze the Cat. Hilariously enough, people have pointed out that due to his and Trunks' respective voices, they may or may not be akin to the Sanada brothers, Yukimura and Nobuyuki. Lack of speech falls onto everyone's minds at that point. Funny enough, Nobuyuki himself needed to hide from some fangirls at some point with the timely assistance of Silver. While they're starting to get along ever since, Nobuyuki explained the reason for that being both of their voices seemed to radiate an ominous fragrance that was very akin to Sebastian Michaelis' charm. Both of them shuddered at the thought.
- Solid Snake is reminded of Psycho Mantis whenever he witnesses Silver's power. He commented, "good thing he doesn't have fire powers, at least." The relief was short-lived when Silver told Snake that his friend Blaze the Cat had fire powers instead. Raiden has heard of how Silver went back in time to try and kill Sonic to change the future. This reminded him of his own futile attempt at killing Big Boss, at which Raiden can now look back and laugh. He also finds something oddly familiar about his voice.
- If you want to use time travel for evil, and especially if you want to use it to destroy the world, count yourself as Silver's sworn enemies. Lord English, Maltruant, Zamasu, Boris, Eobard Thawne; they can all burn in hell as far as he's concerned, and for VERY good reasons. Silver is working tirelessly with the Pantheonic Time Police to thwart them. Thawne mocked Silver by being an ametaur when it comes to fixing the timeline compared to him. Surprisingly Silver actually agreed, so he plans to learn from the more seasoned members of the Time Police so he can stop the likes of the Reverse-Flash.
- The GUAD counts themselves as Silver's enemy, by default as everyone and everything not part of the GUAD are their enemies, and for personal reasons as Silver's arch enemies seek to and partially succeed in destroying his world. SKYNET too, since it's modus operandi is "destroy all organic life and when that fails, send robots back in time so I succeed". Less omnicidal is Gorilla Grodd, who "only" plans to destroy homo sapiens but will go to any extreme to do so and who's own psychic powers vexes Silver.
- Among the GUAD Silver really hates Death Phantom. He orchestrated a Bad Future, and is a lot like Mephiles; chessmasters who wish to destroy the universe for no real reason; Phantom doesn't even bother pretending to be nice about it. Silver's absolute anger at Wiseman extends to his corruption of Chibi-Usa, as he's particuarly fond of her. As Silver wants to protect the timeline from those who'd ruin the future, the present's aid of the rest of the Sailor Senshi, especially Sailor Pluto, really helps him. By teaming up with the Sailor Senshi the psychic hedgehog feels confident he can stop the Bad Future that Death Phantom can be stopped, alongside Lavos and Grima who wish to ruin the future.
- Clockwork has chosen to mentor him in the field of time travel, which has led to Thawne kicking himself for unintentionally giving Silver advice because he's becoming a better problem. He even joined up with both Flashes! One of his lessons was to both keep an eye and start to learn to trust River Song. Despite her anti-hero escapades River means well and she knows Silver isn't exactly fond of working with her considering her outlaw past. Plus even a time traveler like Silver has trouble keeping River's timeline straight.
- Silver tends to avoid the Hall of Fire and Heat. This doesn't have anything to do with the deities, but because it reminds him of two bad futures where the world is a fiery hellscape. Surtr really wants to see that fiery hellscape become an inescapable reality, and given his similarity to Iblis Silver hates the fire giant more than any deity outside of the collective identities of Solaris. Surtr remains convinced that Silver's efforts to Screw Destiny are doomed and he is destined to Set the World on Fire, so he doesn't respect the hedgehog all that much.
- One of his preferred lines of Boss Banter is to inform his opponent that nothing they can do will have any consequence. In other words, IT'S NO USE! Through gaming bugs his psychic powers in a boss battle are so powerful they can fling someone into space. He rarely takes advantage of the Hall of Cheats and Glitches however, as he knows his introductory game is notorious for it and doesn't want to be associated with buggy software. He's quite distrustful of Missingno with the rumors that it's far worse than a mere glitchy being. Later research confirms this is only really true in one corner of the multiverse and Missingno on its own is harmless.
- Once stopped Vile's plans during a merging of worlds. Vile, naturally, is looking to pick a fight with him once more. He was glad to have a win, since sometimes the future becoming a bad one makes him feel like a Failure Hero. Silver holds a level of admiration to the Zoroastrian God of Good since he embodies a principle of good prevailing over evil, and a more personal admiration for Vegeta due to his determination, justified pride and being a lot like Shadow the Hedgehog.
- One of the things Silver did with the pantheon's resources is try to go back in time and stop John F Kennedy from being assassinated. Also find out all the details. The Doctor showed up and informed him he probably shouldn't get involved; there are other time periods where his help is more needed and messing with the Kennedy assassination usually ends poorly. President Kennedy consoled him on this, stated he accepted it happening if it means the timeline is protected, and hopes that he makes his future a good one. Despite the bad futures Silver has tried to avert, JFK sees a silver lining in that none of them were because of a cataclysmic war like he narrowly avoided in the Cuban Missile Crisis.
- Curiously enough, Silver and N are friends. The two found they have a fair bit in common; both are well-intentioned figures flawed in their approach who were manipulated by a heartless sociopath for their gain, with them lying about their goals. Both started as naive, but have managed to grow to be more sure of themselves over time.
- Despite his naivety and tendency to make mistakes, Silver tends to lead the future to be changed for the better in the long term. When Dr Eggman unintentionally unleashed the Metal Virus Silver was explicitly the variable which changed a doomsday scenario from "inevitable" to "avoidable", considering his new Bad Future was a Zombot Apocalypse and he wasn't part of the past there.
Okay, even Akainu thought that Z’s plan on using bombs to kill the entire Grand Line was too much even if it was infested by pirates.

Everyone look at my sandboxfor Silver.
Vi: Well, it's not like we're getting attacked by a giant wasp spider guardian! | Leif: Never combine those words ever again.Alright, here's the updated Pale King and Magicka Wizards.
Who will condemn the Pale King, given everything he had done for the sake of his kingdomnote ? And who will sympathizenote ?
Also, back in his homeworld, the Pale King opposed the research of the Soul Sanctum's scholars, who were harvesting the souls of the poor of Hallownest to prolong their own lifespans and make themselves immortal in a misguided attempt to fight off the Mystical Plague (unaware that they were infected all along). Are there any deities similar to Soul Sanctum scholars he would oppose?

- Long ago, an ancient Wyrm came to an unknown land and met its death. But what is a death to a higher being like Wyrm? Transformation is the answer; the Wyrm shedded off its dying body in favor of a new bug-like form, the one that would be known as the Pale King. The land he ended up in was inhabited by primitive bugs, trapped in unity of the mind by the Radiance, operating on base instincts alone. The Pale King freed them from this fate, bestowing upon them the gift of sapience, and thus, Hallownest was founded, with the Pale King as the ruler, revered by people as a god, even by the Moth Tribe, who turned back on their former deity, the Radiance. The Wyrm proceeded to erase all traces of the old light's existence, and soon the Radiance was forgotten. But the bugs would eventually stumble upon her lone surviving statue, and the Infection spread across all of Hallownest, regressing bugs into their primitive, violent state. To combat this, the Pale King created Vessels, filled with void, hoping that the strongest of them all would become the Hollow Knight and seal the light that plagues everyone's dreams. For extra measure, three bugs were chosen to become the Dreamers to form the seals to contain the Vessel. Unfortunately, it was All for Nothing; the Vessel he chose was not as pure as he thought, and the plague spread itself once more. At this point, the Pale King went into hiding, and then, him and his palace had vanished without a trace into the dream realm. By the time he was found by a little Knight, he was already a corpse. But was it really the Pale King, or was it just a projection inside the lingering memory? So far, nobody knows the clear answer...
- The deities all over the Pantheon were surprised when they noticed an entirely new temple materialize out of nowhere in the House of Facial Attributes. It took the form of a majestic white palace, covered in white-grey leaves, ferns and roots...and also full of buzzsaws, spikes and thorns. A group of airborne deities was disposed to make contact with the new deity residing inside the temple, only to be greeted with aggressive four-armed guardians in white armor with curved claw-blades in hands. The battle ended with the arrival of the temple's owner, a robed bug, bright and radiant in visage, with a horned head in shape of crown, who called off his guards and demanded the intruders to clarify their intentions. Once they explained themselves and asked the new deity about his arrival, the King told his tale — as he described, once he met with a fate in his realm (he refused to elaborate on what fate it was, though), he was sent across the multiverse, and eventually stumbled across the realm of the Pantheon. He thoroughly observed the new world and its structure, and upon securing himself with the title of the God of Crown-Shaped Heads, managed to ascend himself into the Pantheon, hoping to become revered and worshipped as a god once more. Though he was mildly confused by the fact that in Pantheon, many mortal beings were also labelled as "gods", that didn't deter him from his goal — the Wyrm will become the light to shine against the darkness, for others to worship and devote.
- When the Pale King brought the White Palace into the Pantheon along, he didn't come alone; he also brought a set of heralds with him. Kingsmoulds◊, his constructs made of Void, serve as the palace's security, attacking the intruders with their curved claw-blades that really pack a punch. Wingmoulds◊ are another constructs of his, built for unknown purpose. They constantly hover mid-air and disassemble when struck, only to reform several seconds later, allowing some deities to use them as platforms to bounce off of from. Royal◊ Retainers◊ are his loyal, devoted servants who serve as the palace's caretakers. Unlike the latter two, they are incapable of combat. And finally, the Wyrm managed to bring into the Pantheon his wife and the Queen of Hallownest, the White Lady◊, who was happy to reunite with her beloved Wyrm, even though her blindness prevents her from enjoying the beautiful views of the new realm she found herself in. She primarily resides in her own room, still preferring to keep herself chained to prevent further procreation.
- He seeks to rebuild Hallownest in the Pantheon. Though he doesn't have much to work with, especially given that the Hall of Insects (the place where he initially tried to rebuild Hallownest) is where the Radiance resides, he still refuses to turn back on his goals. Speaking of the Radiance, when she learnt of the Wyrm's ascension, she was absolutely furious, immediately rallying up an army of those she managed to infect and then leading an assault on the Pale King's temple. The battle ended with the Knight's interference who managed to destroy the Radiance once more, clearing the assault (her death didn't stick, unfortunately). The discovery that his mortal enemy was also in the Pantheon angered the Wyrm, though unlike the Radiance, his reaction was much more subdued.
- The Radiance wasn't the only entity from his home realm he had an interaction with. And fortunately, another being in the Pantheon to come from Hallownest was none other than one of his Five Great Knights — Ogrim, the Dung Defender. The Defender was incredibly overjoyed to reunite with his King, and the Pale King himself was also quite pleased to see one of his most loyal knights among the ranks of the Pantheon, and reinstated him as a Knight, with his newest duty being the guardiant of the new Hallownest he seeks to build.
- As of the little Knight? Well, the Pale King was surprised to discover that, of all beings to ascend into the Pantheon, it was one of the many rejected vessels who managed to do so. While he was initially disappointed, as it wasn't his chosen vessel, but when he learned of the tiny Knight's exploits, discovering that it was the one who actually destroyed the Radiance back in his home realm, as opposed to merely sealing it away, he had acknowledged the stray vessel as a very valuable asset in his war against his arch-nemesis. Yet at the same time, he's worried that, given the independance the Knight has displayed, it might turn on against him, given how the King had neglected it and left it behind in the Abyss to die in favor of his chosen vessel. Fortunately for the King, the Knight didn't display the desire to take revenge on its father so far. The Dung Defender, remembering his earlier promise to the Knight, asked the Pale King to officially make the vessel a Knight. Given that four other Great Knights are not ascended (and would most likely not be), the Pale King reluctantly accepted, much to the dung beetle's pleasure at the prospect of having many new adventures with the little vessel.
- The Pale King also went on a record to say that, no matter what some unverified sources may claim, the Knight is NOT his post-mortem reincarnation. In fact, he was bewildered to think that people would assume that the vessel that was created back when he was still alive would somehow be himself reincarnated. The Pale King is also very annoyed by Zote the Mighty (then again, who isn't?). Besides the fact that Zote has the gall to call himself the Knight despite the fact that the King never officially deemed him one, and also mocked the Hallownest's downfall, he's also annoyed by the fact that some people believe that Zote is one of his rejected vessels, and denied all such claims. The deities can't tell whether the Pale King speaks the truth, or is he simply too ashamed to admit that he was responsible for Zote's existence.
- Is despised by the House of Family once they discovered the truth behind the creation of his Vessels (having his own children be thrown into the Abyss to die even before their proper birth, be filled with void, and then making sure only the strongest Vessel would come out alive while the rest would be permanently sealed off in the Abyss) and what he had done to his "favored child" (permanently sealing it off in the Temple of the Black Egg, with all the plague inside driving it to constant state of rage and agony). The Pale King admitted that he knows what he had done is unforgivable, but stated that he did what he had to do, since his only other option would be to allow the Radiance to infect the entirety of Hallownest, permanently turning all of its people into mindless monsters.
- Many deities questioned his choice of architectural design, more specifically, why in the world he would fill his palace with tons of buzzsaws, spikes and thorns. The Pale King claimed that all of this is for the sake of security, which only raised further questions regarding why in the world would he put such extensive security measures. Some have theorized that the Radiance is the reason why, but the King has neither confirmed nor denied this. Due to his bizarre architectural choices, Meat Boy ends up avoiding the Pale King and his temple whenever he can.
- The Pale King is quite sympathetic to Gwyn, finding a lot of parallels between himself and the Lord of Sunlight. Gwyn was also willing to sacrifice anything to ensure that the Age of Fire, his era of peace and prosperity, would last forever by trying to prevent the First Flame from dying, very similarly to how the Pale King tried to ensure that Hallownest would last eternal by preventing the Radiance from returning and attempting to use the perfect vessel to indefinitely stall her comeback. However, Gwyn himself vehemently despises the Wyrm for his experimentations with the Void, which he finds very similar to the Abyss which he fanatically hates.
- No cost too great.

- Once upon a time, in a land known as Midgard, a horrible threat befell on a world. Years after the imprisonment of Grimnir on the World's End for his lustful ambitions (well, that's what Order of Magick says) and the exile of his disciples, the warlord Khan united tribes of orcs and goblins and invaded Midgard. Fortunately, four of the wizards, the finest pupils of Vlad (who is most definitely not a vampire), came from Castle Aldrheim to save the world. But once they defeated Khan, they learned that he was actually led by Grimnir, who still craved vengeance for his punishment. And once they came close to defeating him, they were sent by Vlad into the past, because Grimnir was empowered by Assatur, the King in Yellow, the powerful daemon who seeked to destroy the world. In parallel to their past selves' adventures, the wizard quartet had to find a way to learn Corporealize magick that required to bring Assatur into mortal plane to make him defeatable. In their quest, because of their complete lack of any kind of social skills, they had to fight many of their supposed allies, including Vlad himself, the Death, and Fafnir, the one who knew the necessary magick (and taught it to them once Future Vlad explained the situation). With their knowledge, they managed to defeat Grimnir once more, corporealize Assatur in the mortal realm, and then finally defeat him. Their efforts were congratulated, and Vlad told them they just need to use the Town Portal magick to go back home...yet they never learned this magick and had no way of learning it on their adventure, ending up being permanently stranded on the World's End.
- However, it didn't prevent them from returning for another adventure (the question how did they manage to return was never answered, though. Maybe they did figure out how to use the Town Portal magick, after all?). Old and retired, they were enjoying a drink outside the Castle Aldrheim, until Vlad had appeared, reporting of the suspicious activities and lack of fish supplies coming from the small village of Outsmouth. On their ways, they had a lot of run-ins with the cultists of Cthulhu, the ones behind the suspicious activities, and the otherworldly abominations that came to their assistance. In the village proper, they even had to fight Dagon himself. Once they defeated him, he created a portal that sent them to the Nightmare Corpse-city of R'lyeh, awakening the Great Cthulhu. The stars were right, and now it was up to them to set them "left" by defeating the Great Old One. As they ventured, they finally faced Cthulhu, and in a particularly painful fight (in which Dagon had returned to assist him), finally managed to vanquish him. Unfortunately, they failed to escape R'lyeh and now they had to wait until the stars will be right again...and Vlad neglected to teleport them back, trapping them in the collapsing corpse-city, this time truly permanently.note
- How did the wizards get into the Pantheon? It's simple; once they were trapped in R'lyeh, they tried to find a way to create a Town Portal magick again, but they miscasted and accidentally sent themselves into the Pantheon. They have no idea how to return back into Midgard, especially considering that they can't remember the elemental combination they used, so they just decided to stick there. Upon thorough observation of their behavior, the Court of Gods noticed how the wizard quartet possesses potent magical abilities, being capable of creating countless amounts of various spells using 5 out of 8 different elements (10 or 11, if one includes combination elements); and that's not even getting into Magicks, especially powerful spells that can be normally learned only through Tomes of Magick. Their vast magical potential managed to earn them the appropriate title of the Divine Quartet of Unlimited Magical Potential.
- After learning of Hastur and finding him to be extremely similar to Assatur, down to sharing the same title and their names being pronounced the same (it's even implied that Assatur is Hastur as he appears in the world of Magicka), they immediately became enemies with the King in Yellow. He reciprocates their hostility. Cthulhu and Dagon are also not too pleased with seeing the group in the Pantheon, still holding a grudge against them for their past defeats. As such, the Wizards and the Eldritch Abominations can be frequently seen trying to kill each other, with both sides having varying rates of success. And thanks to Death Is Cheap nature of the Pantheon, these battles tend to be a very recurring sight.
- Their heralds are many other wizards of Midgard. Whether they travel in quartets, trios, duos, or even go solo, they tend to be a very frequent sight in the "main" quartet's temple. They also tend to wear different robes of many different colors (though some specific quartets still prefer "default" robes and "default" red-blue-green-yellow colors). Sometimes, whenever they want to rest, the "main" quartet secretly passes their divine title to another quartet similar to theirs, with very few deities noticing the difference. In fact, one specific quartet from another adventure taught the rest how to create Poison element by combining the Arcane and Water. Though that meant they are no longer capable of casting arcane water beams (arcane steam beams are still a fair game, though), their already huge magic potential had vastly increased, giving them many new spell possibilities.
- One of the herald quartets who temporarily bore the title, the very same one that once travelled into the depths of the Castle Aldrheim, once had a run-in with the Butcher, who they found to be very similar to Wurstmacher. The Butcher's response to them was the same one he has for every mortal: to butcher them and eat their FRESH MEAT. Once they barely defeated him, the Butcher, upon coming back to life, ended up sharing the same sentiment towards every single wizard of their kind: to track them down, butcher them, and collect their FRESH MEAT. The wizards, of course, are more than ready to fight back.
- Being the players' avatars, their characterization varies, but many things are made consistent with the playstyle encouraged by their game of origin, as well as the railroading. For once, they tend to be very destructive saviors, more often than not being apathetic to the collaterial damage and civilian casualties caught in the crossfire. They also have No Social Skills whatsoever, never explaining the situation to their supposed allies, having their intentions misinterpreted, and never declining the fights. And also, they often tend to kill each other for laughs (or to steal each others' stuff). Their Revive Magick (Life + Lightning) is very easy to cast, so they don't stay dead for long, and hardly even need the Houses of Death and Postmortem and Life and Vitality to come back to life. When the whole team is in peril, mostly when all wizards but one are dead, they resort to Summon Phoenix Magick (Life + Lightning + Fire), which revives all fallen wizards with full health at once and sets their enemies on fire once the summoned Phoenix lands. But that being said, they do end up needing these two houses if they end up suffering from the Total Party Kill.
- One thing that also remains particularly consistent is the predicament of the yellow wizard. He always ends up receiving the short end of the stick, facing bad luck and being constantly abused, neglected, harmed, and even outright killed. While the wizards murdering each other For the Lulz is a commonsight, the one who suffers the most of it is always the yellow one. Due to that, he has found commonality with two other chew toys of the Pantheon: Waspinator and Kenny McCormick, who also face constant suffering and tend to die a lot (or rather, stay alive, but have his body blown to pieces in case of the former). As such, when the yellow wizard is not hanging out with the rest of the group, he is more often than not seen together with the unlucky two, with all three sharing their respective grievances (and surprisingly, they found a way to understand him even without the verbal communication).
- Twilight Sparkle, another fellow sorcerer who can create seemingly unlimited variety of spell thanks to her hard work and talent in magic, is very unfond of the wizard quartet, due to their destructive actions, apathy to the civilian casualties, and the fact that they don't have any qualms with murdering anyone, including each other. At first, the wizards didn't care "what a horse thinks of them", until she specifically prevented them from leaving the room and gave them a scathing reprimanding — she told them that the Pantheon is not Midgard, and that, unlike in their homeworld, their amoral actions and desctructive behavior will not be tolerated here, the citizens here are not apathetic to themselves being killed, and that if such behavior would continue, people of the Pantheon will take drastic measures to get rid of the group. To their credit, the wizards actually listened and now they try to minimalize the collaterial damage, with varying degrees of success.
Oh, okay. Fixed.

Here's my draft of the Desert Bus, where drivers will have to drive it for 8 boring hours to get to their destination. Who would be patient enough to get a high score on the Desert Bus, let alone get one point on the Desert Bus?
Feedback Mode
- Appearance: A normal, gray bus with a red interior inside a desert
- Class Level: 6, in spite of claims that it should be 5
- Alignment: Lawful Neutral or Lawful Evil depending on who you ask
- Museum Check: Yes
- Portfolio: Driving Game, Requiring Extreme Patience And Continuous Focus, Popular Among Those Intrigued By Its Gimmick Of Being Extremely Realistic And Boring, Not As Much Of A Realistic Trip As You'd Expect, Mocking Games Focusing On Being Realistic, Being Extremely Uneventful, The Most Popular Game In Its Collection By Far
- Distance from end to end: 360 miles (Approximately 579 kilometers)
- Speed Limit: 45 MPH
- Domains: Deserts, Buses, Boredom, Driving, Realism, Tediousness, Challenges
- Unholy to: The Angry Video Game Nerd, Vinesauce Joel, the Council Of Cloudcuckooland, The Doomslayer, deities that are Allergic to Routine or unable to handle boredom.
- Special relations to: Deities related to games completely simulating real life activities?
- Designed by Penn and Teller, the role of the Desert Bus is to be driven from Tucson, Arizona to Las Vegas with no pause nor ability to automate it. Due to the speed limit of the road, it will take 8 hours to fully complete the trip, and to gain a singular point. Additionally, the bus always has a tendency to drift to the right, and it can't be sufficiently cancelled out by turning the wheel left without making it move left, so drivers have to pay attention from making the bus go off-road, forcing the bus to be towed back.
- No one knows how the Desert Bus and its trail ended up in the Pantheon. It was first noticed by some deities in Las Vegas, going at high speeds to find the bus at the opposite end of the trail. Some believe the Desert Bus manifested due to the will of sadistic deities wanting to see people suffer through it, masochistic deities wanting to bring the Desert Bus into the Pantheon, or it integrating itself into the Pantheon on its own. Whatever the reason it is, it certainly isn't leaving, being eternally available for those brave or foolish enough to drive it.
- Some members tried to find ways around all the tedium of the Desert Bus. With some testing, they noticed how the Desert Bus absolutely could not shorten the time by making the bus go faster than 45 MPH. If the bus ever did at one point, no points would be given at the endpoints. They tried to fix the bus and its tendency to drift to the right, but somehow, even the most solid solutions would stop working at very unpredictable times. Robots and other machines tried their mechanical hands at it, but if they somehow didn't get bored, their systems would unexpectedly malfunction if they tried to automate it without much manual attention. However, something they can avert is dealing with how the Desert Bus has to be towed all the way to the start if the bus goes off-road, which normally takes longer unless there's available deities to help transport the bus back faster.
- Learning of how some mortals created a charity based on the Desert Bus, namely the Desert Bus for Hope streams that gotten millions of dollars sent to children's hospitals through the suffering of the LoadingReadyRun gamers. The GUAG have decided to adopt the idea with the purpose of having dedicated members experienced in gaming try to drive the Desert Bus themselves. This movement too has managed to see some success with many deities driving the Desert Bus and having a miserable time, but all for a good cause.
- The Council of Cloudcuckooland dreads this vehicle more than oblivion itself, and they attempted to remove the Desert Bus to no avail. They consider the idea of driving the Desert Bus as their equivalent to horrific purgatory, with some reasoning that it exists to punish them should they do any extremely depraved deeds. If you asked them any sort of "Would you rather..." question with any choice involving a drive of the Desert Bus, they'll always choose the other option. Even fighting a nuclear unicycle-riding Anti-Monitor wielding Soul Eater's Excalibur with a gummy worm would be a better fate than one hour on the Desert Bus in their opinion.
- Unless your definition of fun is highly twisted to the point that waiting can be considered "fun", deities with a reputation for being Fun Personified never act like the Desert Bus exists, let alone get near it. However, the GUAE Trollkaiger thought it would be really enjoyable to see certain deities be forced to go through it. One of the Trollkaiger's more infamous pranks in the Pantheon, the Trollkaiger, with the help of other GUAE members, managed to take several children, elders, some pets hostage, and had them tied to a bomb that would only activate should 1 Desert Bus point be gained within 9 hours. With Squirrel Girl being the closest to the Desert Bus at the time, it was up to her to drive the Desert Bus to save the day, a task she found far more difficult than taking down reputably powerful supervillains. Despite all the psychological suffering from the sheer boredom of the activity, she succeeded in saving the hostages. After that, however, Squirrel Girl would rest in her temple for days, becoming despondent from her experience driving the Desert Bus, to great concern of the GUAG, and to the glee of all the GUAE Trollkaiger, cackling at Squirrel Girl's temporary fall to the wheels of the Desert Bus.
- Thankfully, the GUAE Trollkaiger cannot sabotage the bus nor doing anything prevent the bus from completing its trip. However, this could be Cruel Mercy in a sense, considering how interference from them would actually make driving the Desert Bus actually eventful.
- The news of the Desert Bus' integration into the Pantheon would eventually reach the Angry Video Game Nerd, who had a rather unpleasant experience with playing its game. Only being able to barely endure an hour of it, and then realizing that despite how horrible his experience was with the Desert Bus, some gamers out there were still interested in it to the point of making an Atari version of it! Had it not been for a romhack of Simon's Quest that greatly improved on its original counterpart, the vehicle would have been responsible for AVGN's retirement. Once the AVGN learned of its presence in the Pantheon, there were no words of anger from him, only terror and dread from knowing that the Desert Bus was here to haunt him. Some claim that the AVGN's reaction was so full of despair that Junko Enoshima was drooling from ecstasy from hearing the AVGN whimper in fear from learning the Desert Bus would stay in the Pantheon.
- And the AVGN's experience with the Desert Bus in his mortal days wouldn't even compare to what Joel went through when driving the Desert Bus in a fan-made sequel to the Desert Bus's game. With Joel getting distracted by using his phone around six hours and fifty-four minutes in, he ended up having to get towed all the way back, having been so close to his eight-hour goal. Even the AVGN couldn't help but feel terrible for him, believing that such an experience would have broke him beyond psychological repair if it was him driving the Desert Bus at that moment.
- It's known that a successful trip gets you a singular point, but despite initial appearances from the score counter, the maximum number of points you can get is 99. This would require 792 consecutive hours of dull, laborious driving to achieve, which is equivalent to 33 days, over a month in total. Such a feat is one achievement that many would dread the thought of, but the Blue Elephant is determined to get through it. So far, the Blue Elephant managed 444 hours on the Desert Bus somehow before suddenly dying, presumably from boredom. It's determined to get through the whole dreary trip, but it'll take a break for the time being.
- There were other deities with great patience (and a very good bladder) who managed to rack up a big highscore from the Desert Bus. Master Oogway decided to test his own endurance and discipline by running the Desert Bus himself. To the surprise of many, Oogway managed to handle it for a really long time, racking up 75 points before he left on his own, to deal with a devastating assault from his nemesis Kai on the GUAG. Some wonder if Oogway could have really managed to get a complete 99-point highscore if it weren't for that occasion, or perhaps if there were no accidents.
- Mario had a different experience when going through the road of the Desert Bus. Deciding to have a try at it, he ran through the road instead of taking the bus, ending up going faster than the bus overall, but he had to go through a lot of jumping, since the road was so hot, Mario had to keep off the ground once in a while or else he would burn himself from the heat. Eventually, Mario got used to it and managed to complete a marathon on the road. The RED Team Mercenaries also had to push a payload alongside the Desert Bus track, which was similarly agonizing for them, to the point where they had to entertain themselves by taking turns killing each other routinely.
- The Doomslayer would find his way into the bus, deciding to drive in it for some reason. However, not too long after the bus departed, his weapons and equipment suddenly disappeared on him, and Revenants would continually warp in from the back in an attempt to kill him, although the Revenants were strangely unarmed, so the Doomslayer would have to beat them all with his fists alone. While a daunting and energy-draining task, he got to Las Vegas in one piece, though he left cleaning up the hundreds of Revenant bodies left in the bus to the maintenance staff. Deciding to never use the Desert Bus again, the phenomenon that the Doomslayer went through would be known as "The Revenant Bus Incident".
I would like to know if you guys think this is a good fit for the trope, or not
- Muriel P. Finster, Goddess of Skintone Sclerae (House of Eye Appearances, Lawful Neutral)-adopted from Phantom Fire. Why might she fit the trope? For the former, she doesn't have whites, just pupils, and she's the only character in the series that have this
Trope is taken by the Kraekan

I was surprised to find out there is no god/goddess for the Eldritch Ocean Abyss trope, so I thought a good holder of the title could be SCP-3000. I think it being a gigantic eel long about 900 km who erases people's consciousness and drives them mad is quite adapt. I'd put him as an intermediate/greater god in the Aquatic Life hall. Is anyone willing to help on this one?
That's a good idea, I may help. Myself and Crimson Shark have separatedly also conceived a deity idea, but one that needs a trope being vacated: Calvin Candie and Stephen have two tropes, can Politically Incorrect Villain be vacated for Stormfront?
Reposting hoping for feedback. Garland, God of the Vicious Cycle (Chaos, Nemesis, the Stalwart)
- Lesser God (Greater God as Chaos)
- Symbol: His horned helmet
- Theme Song: Chaos Temple (Last Battle as Chaos)
- Alignment: Lawful Evil
- Portfolio: Endless cycles, keeping himself alive through time loops, a love of combat, heavy armor, large weapons, knocking others down, serving Chaos, Multi-Purpose Sword.
- Domains: Cycles, Conflict, Reincarnation, Paradox
- Heralds: The Four Fiends
- Allies: Lord Chaos, Caius Ballad, Mercurius, Emperor Palamecia, Golbez, Exdeath, Kefka Palazzo, Sephiroth, Ultimecia, Kuja, Jecht, Seymour Guado, Sarda, Bowser, Airy, Mordred, the evil Kingdom Hearts deities
- Enemies: Cosmos, the Warrior of Light, Firion, the Final Fantasy III heroes, Cecil Harvey, Kain Highwind, Terra Branford and her friends,
- Complicated relationship: White Mage
- Formerly Garland was only a member of the Pantheon by his existence to Chaos. However further review has noted Garland, while an extension of Chaos' paradox, has a legitimate claim to a throne separate from the God of Discord. Namely, while Garland becomes the demon Chaos, Lord Chaos is a whole separate entity that downright had Garland as his first recruit in assembling a villain squad that transcended time and space (Garland himself bestowed the 'Chaos' name upon the God of Discord noting the similarities to his own final form). Still, the rules of Garland's existence still apply even though he is now his own deity. Should Chaos die, Garland will become the next Chaos and take the throne of the Temporal Paradox and create a new Garland to fill this position.
- The story goes that when Garland was about to die, the Four Fiends (Lich, Marilith, Kraken, and Tiamat) sent him to the past, where his hatred would merge with the four elements of the world to create the Fiends, who after restoring Garland to life (in the process turning him into the demon Chaos) would then be sent by him to the present, a Stable Time Loop that would allow Garland to live forever. This Vicious Cycle had seemingly continued without a clear end a countless number of times, until the Warriors of Light managed to break it by time traveling to defeat the Garland/Chaos of the past. Hence, Garland has made very clear one of the things that drives him in the Pantheon is the possibility for a rematch with the lead Warrior, and bring his head back to his temple.
- The only Houses Garland has ever been seen in are the Houses of Combat, Weapons, and Time and Space. In the House of Time and Space, he is on official duty, either to his own title or at Chaos' behest. Otherwise, he is indulging himself with one fight after another, seeing no other form of entertainment available. Of course resorting to the thing that led the Warriors of Light against him in the first place, kidnapping princesses, has crossed his mind - Bowser even became a friend, as this sort of abduction is his way of life! This then led Princess Peach to rally the other heiresses of her House to stand against Garland.
- Garland's title owes to the Four Fiends, and thus they became his heralds. This instantly put him in the sights of the Masou Kishin quartet, as those are the same classical elements they run on, only employed by monsters.
- He has occasionally proclaimed he would "knock down" his opponents when in particularly heated scraps. He has been mocked for this before, but ridiculers were quick to learn just what being "knocked down" would entail. And he's grown a Berserk Button to opponents who taunt him by singing "Tubthumping" - you might get knocked down, but will get up again, as he'll never gonna keep you down!
- Given another Garland originated from the world of Final Fantasy IX, Zidane and Kuja prefer not to think that the old man who created them both might be inside that armor.
- While Warrior of Light is his arch-nemesis, Garland also hates every Final Fantasy hero, and will always continue to fight them for nothing more than to enjoy himself. He also harbors a grudge against Cloud, as he was the first in the series to wield a huge sword and yet the spiky-haired blonde takes all the glory.
- Is always willing to go along with the evil schemes of Mercurius, who also abuses time loops for his benefit, and Airy, who has similar experience with power crystals and time (though alternate timelines instead of staying in the same one).
- Being a respected knight who turned to evil once corrupted with power, Garland has already gotten along with fellow fallen warrior Mordred, who can't wait to go after his father Arthur with such powerful back-up. The Knights of the Round Table have since been prepared, and even Arthur's female version Artoria (who has extra contempt for Garland because, well, it's a guy who kidnaps princesses) is willing to show Garland what being knocked down really means.
- Sora has never actually met Garland (the only Final Fantasy villain that crossed his way was Sephiroth), but instantly stands against someone with such lust for power. Doesn't help the villains of his series took an interest to Garland, who feel his elemental magic can be enhanced with Darkness - and Sora doesn't want to see what a Heartless or Nobody derived from Garland and Chaos can be.
- After learning of a certain interpretation of his story where he was an Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain, Garland was at first angry, but decided that incorporating some of those Affably Evil traits might get people to support him - White Mage even can't fully stand against him because of the memories of the Garland she helped promote as a Fake Ultimate Hero! Still, he's still a fierce opposer of the Light Warriors, no matter if aside from Fighter they're borderline villains. Garland also became a partner of Sarda, whose Start of Darkness also involves time travel - although Sarda has some envy to how Garland became Chaos instead of having his body hijacked by him.
I have this weird image of him trying to kidnap Peach only to come across The Shadow Queen instead, which would end badly.
I’m plotting my schemes wherever I go! They’re perfect in every way…I do not get why people suddenly have the urge to take a trope from another profile if it means giving their favorites a shot into the Pantheon. The fact that it had to be from a series that is still recovering from hype really annoys things further. Also, I get that the duo has Slavery Is a Special Kind of Evil but do we have to sacrifice Django Unchained for another candidate of The Boys?

I’m plotting my schemes wherever I go! They’re perfect in every way…Stormfront was originally my idea, correct, and I had it for months, but I never actually made a move to work on her as of now and if anyone knows how I work, I normally tend to do around three profile drafts and do a select series of nominations after getting those drafts done.
@Igor - At least you could have waited for a response from me before you posted about working on Stormfront. Keep in mind that just because I go out and get something approved doesn't mean I'm immediately working on it. I've had the Stormfromt idea since around October-November, and even when the HPS lock for The Boys (2019) ended, I was simply not interested enough to do her and I doubt I would have for a couple of months.
@Hamana - "Sacrifice"? Calvin and Stephen are obviously staying in the Pantheon, so they're not being sacrificed at all. I never said anything about throwing out Django Unchained either, so I guess you're being rather erroneous there.
At this point, I'm more surprised that Stormfront has become a topic a lot later than I anticipated. And I honestly wasn't thinking about Stormfront for my next suggestion batch either.

"Money is the goddamn plan! Have some faith, y'all!"I have some new ideas to save for later. Any thoughts?
- Balan, Lance, Leo, and Emma, Gods of Having Lore Explained Through External Sources
- The four main characters of the gamenote have their basic roles explained, but the game has no characterization whatsoever outside of short, dialogue-free cutscenes for everyone. The novel, which was released separately from the game, gives the reader more details behind the characters' backstories and personalityspoiler .
- Hero and Bianca, Divine Couple of Developers' Desired Date
- The Hero has the option to marry either Bianca or Neranote . However, the game clearly pushes Bianca to be the Hero's canon wife, since they are childhood friends and Bianca had a cush on the Hero ever since. Bianca is devoted to the Hero's happiness and wishes him luck if she isn't chosen, a scene that's designed to make the player feel guilty. Nera notices this devotion and suggests calling off the marriage so he can be with Bianca. Even in official artwork and promotional material for the game, the Hero's twin children are blonde, indicating that Biaca is the semi-official choice.
- The Heroes of Light, Gods of Elemental Motifs
- Each Hero of Light chosen fits their element well and it also plays into thier relationship with their Implied Love Interest.
- Seth, like the wind, is flexible and goes whichever way is needed of him at the moment. He is also a sailor, traveling the sea while guided by the wind.
- Gloria, like water, is ever graceful and elegant yet inexorable and determined in pursuit of her goal.
- Elvis, like the earth, is the most laidback and constant of the four. He's also noted to be a bit of pyromaniac with things catching on fire around him.
- Adelle, like fire, is the most Hot-Blooded and emotional of the four.
- Each Hero of Light chosen fits their element well and it also plays into thier relationship with their Implied Love Interest.
to the ideas.
I would be fine with the removal myself

"Bingo! If two species hate each other, they will wipe each other out on their own."@Mattman: Lunord has All There in the Manual. That said, looking at the profile, it's not very up-to-date and the flavor text isn't all that detailed to the point that it's plausible it can be deleted if others agree with such.
