Trope Pantheons Discussion

Go To

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

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

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

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

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

    Templates 
Template for adding a new deity:

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

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

Template for Dominions profiles:

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

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

Template for Treasure profiles:

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

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

@Mizerous: Airplane Arms is taken by Freakazoid.

Also, I feel like you've been asking about Transgender Fetishization and Poison for a while and it felt like more than 3 times at this point even taking into account breaks between attempts.

Here's the first attempt, second attempt, and third attempt prior to the fourth attempt previous page.

[up]I thought there was a rule that prevented other suggestion attempts should it reach a third try. At this point, no progress has been made. Sorry but a [tdown] would have to placed.

I'll be quite frank, the Pantheon's love for every single "official" crossover media is grating. We are supposed to be a celebration of media, and yet there are clear biases towards specific ones. Drop that Ultimate bullshit and just focus on that media you're making profiles out of. End of story.

I swear Loid, you can't draw worth shit!

I’m done.

"Annihilation for this planet is near. It is time to embrace the dawn of your demise and despair."

Black Doom, God of Red and Black Villains (Big Boss Man, Doom’s Eye, Devil Doom)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/blackdoom.png
Devil Doom 
  • Greater God. Borderline Overdeity as Devil Doom. Doom’s Eye is a Lesser God.
  • Symbol: The Black Arms symbol. Alternatively, the Black Comet.
  • Theme Song: Black Doom
  • Alignment: Neutral Evil
  • Portfolio: Obviously Evil With A Name To Match, Knight Templar, Evilutionary Biologist, Having Doom in his name, Extremely Evil Aliens, Power Floats, Red and Black Showing He’s Evil, Voice of the Legion, Doppelgänger Attack, Evil Red Eyes, Had a hand in Shadow’s creation and is one of his most personal foes, Galactic Conquerer, Evil Sounds Deep
  • Domains: Evil, Aliens, Doom, Death, Depravity, Conquest, Consumption
  • Heralds: Black Death and the rest of the Black Arms
  • Allies: Ragyo Kiryuin, Nui Harime, Gul'dan, King Ghidorah, Gigan, The Shroobs, The Death Busters, Mard Geer, Pennywise, Molag Bal, Lavos, Sheev Palpatine, The Mars Attacks! Martians, The Other Mother
  • Rivals: Mephiles The Dark, Megatron, Frieza, The Harvesters, The Chaos Kin, Merged Zamasu
  • Enemies:
  • Respects: Tyranids
  • Respected by: SCP-953
  • Interested in: Many deities in the Hall of Mind Control, Corrupters, The Joker
  • Commonality Connection: Darkdeath Evilman
  • Stories have been told of a meteor that passes by every 50 years. Long ago, Dr. Gerald Robotnik made contact with it and made a deal with the alien race inhabiting it, which were known as the Black Arms. Their leader, Black Doom, would aid in Project Shadow on the condition that the creation, Shadow, would serve him when the Black Comet appears over the Earth. It didn’t go the way he hoped. When the Black Comet appeared, it ended up being Shadow who put an end to his twisted plans.
  • Black Doom arrived to the Pantheon one night with his armies not far behind him with the intent to conquer it and use everything and everyone that he possibly could as food for him and his race to consume. While his plan was stopped by Shadow, who was working with a few other deities in the fight against him and was quite livid that Black Doom had returned, he managed to retreat to the Black Comet in space in order to begin plotting his next move.
  • Often uses Doom’s Eye, a Mouth of Sauron who happens to be a part of him, to spy on potential opposition and communicate with others rather than meet them himself. He’s come to learn of the Other Mother and Pennywise through it and has used Doom’s Eye to communicate with them, becoming allies as a result with him even offering Pennywise some captured children to consume in return for some aid from the Monster Clown. To his pleasure, Pennywise accepted the offer. As for the Other Mother, he prefers to leave her to her own devices, but his hatred of humanity leads him to sending Black Arms troops sometimes to aid her in her plans. Coraline Jones was not pleased to learn of this.
  • Currently, he's very interested in the Tyranids, given that they are aliens with a similar goal. Many are worried about what will happen if he manages to get them to join the Black Arms, though for now, the most Black Doom can do is tell them what he wants to be accomplished. On the other hand, The Immortal God-Emperor of Mankind and his subordinates absolutely hate him and cite him as a reason the Imperium is xenophobic. Black Doom doesn't have a positive view on humanity in general and believes that they are to be served to the Black Arms in order to be offered "salvation".
  • Many who have had experience fighting against evil aliens such as Superman and XCOM are already keeping an eye on Black Doom. Mario, Luigi and their allies find him similar to a certain race of aliens that they once fought against and have also been opposing him and his Black Arms. Black Doom has responded by making contact with said aliens: The Shroobs. He got along swimmingly with their princesses and they have decided to join forces.
  • He has grown to become very annoyed whenever someone refers to the Black Arms as "black creatures" in a manner that sounds racist. He has made it very clear that anyone who opposes him and that alien race will get destroyed, no matter what. When it was pointed out that he would’ve done this to all organic life possible that he could successfully subjugate anyway by feeding them to the Black Arms and himself, he didn’t even attempt to deny it, but claimed it to be salvation for their races.
  • Caught wind of alleged comparisons between Shadow and Ryuko Matoi. This led Black Doom to meet Ragyo Kiryuin and was impressed that Ragyo would betray humans to side with aliens. For the time being, Ragyo is one of the very few humans that Black Doom is willing to work with. Ryuko, Satsuki and all of their allies find him and his goals way too similar to Ragyo Kiryuin for their liking, but unfortunately, she has let Nui Harime aid him in some of his plans.
  • Somehow, he managed to form an alliance with Gul'dan. The orc's skull has the alien intrigued and many fear what would happen should Black Doom use the cursed skull for his own plans. He’s also interested in other artifacts in the Great Treasury that he believes can aid in his plans, much to the horror of many.
  • Yes. He’s well aware that his paralyzing gas can be resisted or is even completely ineffective against some people that are in the Pantheon. He’s taken an interest in The Joker’s Joker Toxin because of this, as it has incapacitated the entirety of the Justice League before and he believes that applying some of the properties of it to his own paralyzing gas could be helpful. You Can Panic Now.
  • It didn't take that long for Black Doom to encounter a number of other aliens and the interactions he's had with some of them are quite varied.
    • He has struck up an alliance with King Ghidorah and Black Doom will allow the kaiju to work with him whenever the Black Arms are in trouble. Ghidorah is happy as long as it can cause pain and misery towards humans, something that Black Doom approves of.
    • On the other hand, Black Doom doesn't have anything positive to say about Babidi, citing him as nothing more than a Dirty Coward. Even then, Babidi's whole "control evil with a spell" schtick is something that Black Doom doesn't want to experience firsthand and wants to feed the little wizard to some of his minions.
    • Likewise, he thinks lowly of Cybertronians. Viewing them as the same kind of foolish and self-destructive species as humans. And since they're mechanical in nature, they cannot be used as a food source for the Black Arms, making them useless in Black Doom's eyes. That being said, he has been competing with Megatron in the field of conquest recently, and the Decepticon welcomes the competition and has declared that he will come out on top.
    • Black Doom once considered having Arael work for him, given the latter's abilities, but upon learning that Arael is merely interested in the psychology of humans and not openly malicious towards them, Black Doom became extremely offended and had the plans scrapped.
    • He’s also grown to respect the goals of the Death Busters and their Master Pharaoh 90, citing them as an alien race that recognizes humanity’s worthlessness. While their goals aren’t the same, as Pharaoh 90 wants to exterminate all of humanity and replace them with Daimons rather than use them as livestock, it has reached the levels where the Black Arms can occasionally be seen watching and aiding the Death Busters. He has earned enemies in the Sailor Senshi when he personally showed up during a fight between them and the Black Arms and had the Black Bull attack the Magical Girls.
  • He and Mard Geer Tartaros have grown to respect each other’s disregard for humanity and have become allies. This has unnerved the Fairy Tail Guild, as Black Doom hates the human race just as much, if not moreso than Mard Geer. They have been opposing him, but Black Doom’s response to this was a simple chuckle and one word. “Futile.”
  • Has learned of Mephiles the Dark and how he, much like him, tried to get Shadow to pull a Face–Heel Turn and go against everything he cared about. Fortunately, his goals wildly differ from those of Mephiles, and he has been finding himself competing in the field of manipulation against him instead.
  • Disagrees with the Dalek Empire about their plans to kill off humanity as he believes that they are going to be a very good food source. That being said, he won’t pull an Enemy Mine against them with the Doctor. On the contrary, the two absolutely hate each other and the Doctor will do everything in his power to make sure Black Doom never succeeds.
  • Has recently taken an interest in the Hall of Mind Control and Corrupters, hoping to gain some allies in his quest to get Shadow to join the Black Arms. While he hasn’t had much luck with the Hall of Mind Control at the moment, he and Molag Bal managed to hit it off and form a proper alliance, much to the horror of many as having such a great corrupter as an ally could be catastrophic if the two play their cards right.
  • "Friend or foe means nothing to us! We are merciless until the end!"

What are you all talking about? The Professor D saga is the best fictional work out there. Dont say otherwise, I know youre lying.

So, can I go ahead with changing Fuse to Defunct Online Video Games. Would also like to rid of the ambiguity regarding his status and simple make the guy borderline Overdeity. Rewrite some lines to reflect that.

@Hexxus Looks ready to go from me. [tup]

@r-lock256 I never got a [tup] or [tdown] on Poison's new trope until this thread page, so I'm guessing the new trope is acceptable now. I don't think reposting after some time is against the rules.

Edit: I'm gonna have to give Kaine a rest then I don't want to abuse my profile suggesting on here, so I'll shift gears to another Nier profile with Devola and Popola if no one else wants to do them.

So, my pick for the Adjective Animal Alehouse was removed, and frankly it was of bad quality. So here's my alternate candidate I'd like to propose; The Stray Sheep.

  • Reasoning: Compared to Iroh's Jasmine Dragon, which simply exists, the Stray Sheep has much more screen time and is where the player is half the time as a hub area (the other half is in Vincent's nightmares).

I also got another candidate in mind.

Lobotomy Corporation, Celestial Company of Exploiting The Supernatural For Resources

  • Reasoning: The game is all about harvesting Abnormalities for a substance known as Enkephalin, which is the most powerful source of energy in the setting and is extremely lucrative as a result.

What do you guys think?

Alright, anyone got any more ideas?

Splash Star Pretty Cures members , Goddesses of Heroic Exhaustion

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/PrettyCureSplashStar_2627.jpg
  • Potential House: Medical Conditions
  • Power Level: Intermediate.
  • Symbol: Their Mix Communes
  • Theme Song: Leave It To Us! Splash Star
  • Alignment: Lawful Good
  • Portfolio: Battle Aura, Tomboy and Girly Girl, Wonder Twin Powers
  • Domains: Elements, Fountains, Breakdowns, Magic
  • Heralds: Flappy, Choppy, Moop, Foop, Michiru and Kaoru Kiryuu
  • Allies: The Magical Girl Sisterhood, all other ascended Pretty Cure (especially Cure Black and Cure White and the Sailor Guardians), Fat Buu, Reiji Arisu and Xiaomu
  • Enemies: Joker, Death Phantom, Majin Buu, The Beast
  • As usual, the story of Saki Hyuuga and Mai Mishou is a predictable one when it comes to Pretty Cures. The two middle schoolers were visited by two fairies, Flappy and Choppy, who came from the Land of Fountains, corrupted by a group of destruction seeking elementals named Dark Fall. They were then given the ability to turn into Pretty Cures and fight Dark Fall off, ultimately defeating their leaders, Akudaikahn and Gohyan, and becoming friends with sisters Michiru and Kaoru Kiryuu, Akudaikahn's daughters.
  • Cure Black and Cure White continued their efforts to recruit all the Pretty Cures they could, and their call to arms eventually reached the universe where Saki and Mai lived. The two recalled the massive battle they had with all the other Cures during the events of the Hugtto season, and decided to ascend together, joining their comrades and bolstering the ranks of the Sisterhood further.
  • They were not pleased to learn of Joker's ascension, and even more so when they learned Joker was attempting to find a way to recruit all the other Pretty Cure villains. They’re worried Joker might ascend any agents of Dark Fall, but until that day ever comes, they have vowed to fight him and Bad End.
  • In a similar vein, the tactics of Death Phantom of being an advisor who is secretly the real villain reminded them very much of Gohyan's tactic, and it didn’t help that both of them allowed their "superior" to die while taking their place as leader in the final battle. They also noted that Death Phantom is also an abombination and enjoys watching people die, and so they often clash with him and the Black Moon Clan.
    • They were also warned by the Sailor Guardians of Death Phantom’s hypnosis powers, and also participated in a mission to save some of their comrades when Death Phantom hypnotized them and forced them to fight against them. That just made them even more determined to ensure he cannot cause more trouble.
  • In a similar vein, they were once attacked by Majin Buu, and found that he was even worse than Gohyan. Not only did Majin Buu blow up the Earth at one point, but in his current state, Buu has no restraints and could very well destroy the entire Pantheon if left unchecked. They were eventually saved by Fat Buu when he saw what his evil side was doing, and were surprised to learn that he had been reformed due to him being unable to see right from wrong, but ultimately befriended him.
  • Being powered by the spirits of nature means that they often are employed by the GUAN, and they routinely fight on their behalf. They do note some of the members, such as Viridi, seem to get out of hand when dealing with their targets, but they ultimately fight for their behalf.
  • Dark Fall's generals were all themed after the five elements of the Wuxia, and could make monsters called Uzainas based upon their respective element. Thus, when they heard Reiji and Xiaomu performing the Shinra Banshou, they assumed it might have been a new attack Dark Fall was doing and went to stop them. Though they came to blows, they ultimately realized they both wanted to save the world and became friends with each other.
  • Exclusive to Saki:
    • The energetic member of the duo, Saki enjoys playing softball as the team's pitcher. Her skill was so great, it was able to get the team to the semi-finals. This also applies to Kagura, and they quickly became best friends after Saki saved Kagura from a monster attack.
    • Saki’s personality traits is that she is cheerful and optimistic, and this often perks up those who are feeling down. She often heads to the House of Sadness to try and cheer up those who have gone there because they are feeling down. She once encountered Serval, who is just as energetic as her, and befriended the leopard girl. Her happy personality also got the attention of Wander and Pinkie Pie, who became good friends with her after she took part in one of Pinkie’s parties.
    • She’s also good at baking bread, but not at baking anything else. She once tried to participate in a baking contest alongside Hoto Cocoa, and was eliminated early due to this. This, however, got the attention of Kazuma Azuma, who brought her in to help her try to get better at baking. It helps that she’s got another team of Cures to fall on for that.
  • Exclusive to Mai:
    • The more relaxed member of the duo, Mai enjoys spending her time sketching animals and forests. She is quite skilled at this line of work, too. She once encountered Suzu Houjou while she was drawing a forest and helped her out, with both of them becoming good friends afterward.
    • Mai is also good at science, similar to Honoka, and she often accompanies her while in class at the Pantheonic Academy. She is calm and serene for the most part, very similar to Honoka as well.
    • During one sketching day, Mai was having problems sketching animals and wanted help. Fortunately, she soon encountered Fluttershy, who was more than willing to help her sketch the animals by allowing them to relax and be calm. She quickly befriended the young pony and can often be seen helping her.
      • However, during another time, Mai encountered the monster known as The Beast after deviating into the Forest of the Unknown. Her fighting proved to be mostly ineffective until Saki was alerted by the other Cures of her plight and came to save her, defeating The Beast with their special attack, the Splash Star Twin Stream. Mai also expressed fear of the Edelwood Trees, and rightfully so, as trees should not have scary faces.
