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.

@Rpmdc:
"Bingo! If two species hate each other, they will wipe each other out on their own."@Rmpdc:
Ascension suggestion: Sergeant John Captain and Steve for Bottom of the Barrel Joke
Reason: Their shorts are well known for their usage of unwarranted but signature Vulgar Humor to contrast with their otherwise bleak and desolate setting, as part of how casually they treat the days of warfare they get into.
Rework suggestion: Dr. Drakken and Shego for Evil Duo
Reason: The both of them are an iconic villain duo who juxtapose each other, Drakken being the ambitious and inventive super-ego to Shego being the battle-seeking action-oriented Dragon id, on top of an additional juxtaposition with their archenemies, Drakken being the bumbling and emotional counterpart akin to Ron, while Shego is the more calm, collected, and competent counterpart, appropriately rivaling Kim Possible herself. I want to rework the two in one profile since their profiles both need work and I think they're better off sharing a profile anyways.

- Intrigue: Ian Malcolm, Alan Grant, Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger.
- Oppose: The Monster Hunters, Big Boss.
- In a world filled with monsters there are many ways that the creatures hunt: Some use brute strength to bring down prey with one blow, others use elemental powers to hunt more efficiently and some others instead hunt with a pack of lesser members. Such monsters are usually Raptorial Bird Wyverns, too weak on their own to fight bigger threats but quite more capable with a pack. Other examples are lesser Fanged Wyverns. Though not the strongest monsters by any measure, they're still quite the threat for unprepared/inexperienced hunters.
- They were ascended into the Pantheon in an attempted orderly, calm way. For the most part they were cooperative and settled on their House without issue... Until they decided to start fighting one another and caused a massive brawl in their houses and nearby. Though their particularly notable weakness to stronger forces made corralling them back in order an easy task to do. Eventually they settled on making territories for each of their packs, and have somewhat remained in peace ever since.
- The pack hunters all have an instinctual opposition to the Hunters, who kill and capture many of their kind in their universe and use their parts for their weapons. That said, they often get distracted by trying to target another bigger target when the chance comes up. At the same time, the Hunters have made it clear that unlike most others, they won't hunt the big game monsters beyond necessary and are content to leave them be in the Pantheon if they don't try and stir up trouble in the Houses and Halls.
- The Velocidrome has previously encountered Big Boss, along with the Velociprey packs. Big Boss still remembers mowing down masses of them and was annoyed at seeing their presence in the Pantheon given their horrible screeching, appearances, tendency to jump people at random and aggressive behavior towards everything else. While he won't go out of his way to hunt them, given he has bigger matters to care about than some lizards on the place, he will definitely hunt them down if they get in the way of his work or goals.
- They don't like anything else in their territory, no ifs and or buts, as such any who dares trespass into their turf is either vulnerable to an ambush attack... Or is bound to create a massacre of creatures. But few are willing to enter these places, as they either don't care about these creatures or are actually intimidated by them due to lacking the means to fight them. A few examples of those willing to cross can be found in the powerful Deviljho, a monster of their world that will eat anything it can and thus cares nothing for territories and intruding. While most of the pack hunters fall to this mighty beast, one stands above them as the superior to Deviljho: The Greatest Jagras, an unusually big monster that can absolutely overpower the saurian beast and force it to give it a wide berth.
- The Velocidrome and Great Jaggi found a peculiar direct rival in the Raptor Squad, a group of four genetically engineered raptors that hunt with extreme precision and deadliness. Blue has taken up on the challenges of the Bird Wyverns with her pack engaging in brutal clashes that leave grievous injuries on all sides, though often stands down when overwhelmed by numbers or exhaustion. Blue and her pack do avoid most of the others, knowing that the Gendrome, Iodrome, Giadrome, Great Baggi, Great Wroggi, Great Jagras, Great Girros and Great Izuchi are all armed with body parts or elements that grant them an immediate advantage over them that they can't expect to overcome.
- They also immediately got tussling with the big dinosaurs such as Rexy, the Spinosaurus and Indominus Rex. While the big predators are mostly capable of overcoming their foes, they all avoid the big and strong Greatest Jagras, whose strength in the physical department is unmatched by them and is easily capable of swallowing them whole with impunity and quickly. The Indoraptor, close relative of Indominus, has taken to to challenging the Alphas for fun, often goading their far less intelligent brains into going berserk so it can get a good fight.
- The Gendrome have made an enmity with the lions in the Pantheon particularly Simba, Mufasa and Scar. This is due to the fact that its Genprey brethren have often fights with lions in their world. Simba has mostly done so in self-defense while Scar welcomes the challenges and even has thought of allying with them, though discarded that due to them being even dumber than the hyenas and much more dangerous as a result since they don't even show a capacity to understand loyalty.
- These creatures were quite the puzzle for scientists and dinosaur enthusiasts given that most of them are raptor-like creatures with bizarre adaptations and shapes. First of these people was Alan Grant who was quite shocked by how much more deranged these creatures were in appearance than even the likes of the raptors he's faced over the years, while being interested in learning the exact nature of their evolution and development of powers and skills, given his own ongoing investigations on the nature of dinosaur evolution.
- They've made quite the enemies on the Pantheon, firstly notable is the Gang of Seven, a group of young dinosaurs who had to contend with several deadly predators and are very wary of these "Sharptooths" who are relentless, have abilities that are otherwordly for them and quite more dangerous than any foe they've faced. Speaking of which, the Sharptooth has not taken well to their presence and will often fight them if they cross paths, to remove possible threats, though like Deviljho he will turn tail and run if he meets up with the Greatest Jagras.
- The Great Jagras is surprisingly calm when not on the hunt or threatened and is even a caring leader for its troops, this made approaching it an easier job than usual. One of the first humans to make non-hostile contact with it was Steve Irwin, who has experience dealing with all kinds of aggressive beasts and was quite quick to befriend the colossal Fanged Wyvern, who afterwards met Steve's close allies and also befriended them. No such luck was fully had with the other pack leaders, as they are generally more irritable, though Steve at least got to make them not attack him on sight and even have them tolerate his presence greatly to the point that he can freely roam and even stay in their turf for some days.
- The Herd has dealt with raptorian creatures in their world during various adventures, and these creatures were not too dissimilar either, especially as the Giadrome and Great Baggi felt a drive to attack Manny due to their preference for mammoth-like creatures such as the Popo in their world. While the Herd often prefers to run away, Manny at times does stand his ground with the others and even has been receiving help lately from Gammoth, who loathes these critters and does not tolerate seeing another creature fall prey to them.
- The Kyoryuger were interested in these creatures, given that most of them are essentially Living Dinosaurs, Daigo attempted to befriend them, starting with the practically red-colored Great Jaggi and Izuchi, though had to rough them up a bit to dissuade an initial assault due to their aggressive behavior. While not much in the way of a friendship came out of it, at least the duo are willing to let the Kyoryugers get close as a result of this meeting.
- King Kong has many times fended off these creatures' attacks, often when crossing their territories on a trek or when having a coincidental meeting while exploring the Pantheon, the repeated happenings of this incident has led to a rather fierce enmity developing between both parties but often leading to multiple dead critters and a pissed off Kong afterwards. Otherwise Kong has gotten along with the Great Jagras due to its more passive behavior, as well as its bigger version who has helped it fight off the Deviljho on ocassions.
- Raptor Red was yet another rival to the raptorian alphas, Red sees them as a threat to herself and her brood or others she cares for. Out of these rivals she has the most bitter one towards the Velocidrome for its constantly aggressive behavior and tendency to try and chase her out of her own territory to install himself and his own brood on it, though she ultimately only views fighting it as a self-defense approach. Riptor was another raptor who also got up to challenging these creatures, and unlike Red it takes all due pleasure in retaliating.
- Fluttershy's ability to communicate and empathize with animals let her get close to the monsters without a bloodshed ensuing. She has at times been disturbed by their extremely aggressive predatory ways, but has come to respect this given the kind of world they live in, at the least she's happy that she can peacefully coexist with the Great Jagras and its kind with proper care and without the need for a long, arduous process of using gestures to win them over. Fluttershy has also taken interest in learning the way they socialize given that beneath the typical alpha and pack relationship there seems to be some sort of developed social interaction.
- Their hides and organs are valuable for various reasons, including food, money from the "gems" that can form in their bodies or even as exotic pets or attack animals. This all has made them quite the popular targets for many hunters in the houses throughout the Pantheon, but the main one was Hunter J, someone who specializes in catching and selling powerful creatures and finds the pack hunters to be quite the easy prey to subdue and sell on the Black Market. This has made the creatures hostile to her presence and quite wary as well due to her Pokémon's power.
- As with every other creature of their world, they are all afraid of the higher-level Elder Dragons; most especially Fatalis, the Black Dragon whose power and cruelty is unmatched. Fatalis can particularly enjoy singling them out as their overall weaker power makes them quite the playthings for its sadism. A Fatalis' presence is sure to make even the most bold of these hunters keel over and run away rather than stay and fight, to the point that they'll cease any and all hostilities toward other creatures just to seek shelter.
- All of them have the capacity to turn into Monsties, Pokémon-like creatures that bond with their masters and can fight for them against other Monsties or threats. Many have gotten interested in getting one of them as a partner. One of these interested deities was Ash Ketchum, who believes that he can be at least befriend one of them since he thinks they must have a nicer side underneath the usual aggressive behavior of their kinds. At least he's confident that could work out with the Jagras, but won't push it much.

"Bingo! If two species hate each other, they will wipe each other out on their own."A universe of infinity held within a singular dot. Thus a collection of dots a collection of infinities does it become...
.
Got a proposal:
Ittle Dew and Tippsie for Line Boil:
Reason: The first game used this as it's signature art style, mostly so that players could more easily tell what they can interact with or not, as interactible objects had line boils. The sequel, despite making a jump to 3D, still managed to retain the effect with its in game models, once again fulfilling the same purpose it had in the first game.
NOISE IS CALLING, PICK UP PHONE"Bingo! If two species hate each other, they will wipe each other out on their own."
Another early draft.

The Cybermen, Godly Representatives of Heavily Mechanized Societies
- Greater Deity-Level Civilization, though individually range from Demideities to Intermediate Deities. The Cyberiad Cybermen have the potential to become Greater if their Adaptive Ability upgrades them to be immune to enough forms of danger, which would raise them to the rank of an Overdeity-level civilization.
- Symbol: Their handlebars

- The Cybermen used to be fully organic beings known as the Mondasians, who lived on Earth's twin planet. Unfortunately, their homeworld drifted away from the sun, forcing them to resort to Cyber-Conversion to survive. The result led them to cut out their souls, and become one of the greatest blights their universe has ever seen. Now these emotionless, cyborg warriors seek to end pain and death the only way they can think how: conversion, whether the target wants to or not.
- In another universe, they originated on Earth itself. As a product of a billionaire's desire to escape terminal illness, he put people's brains in the metal Cyberman shell and ordered them to do the same to everyone else, with Cybus Industries to help. That world was thankfully spared from suffering the same fate as Mondas, but enough Cybermen survived to continue their work, finding ways of invading other universes.
To celebrate my birthday, I'll be posting these drafts for ideas, and 3 suggestions for deities to work on in the future.
- The Go-Getters Clubmembers , Gods of Friendship Song
- The Go-Getters Club have an anthem that every member knows to the point that when one member starts singing, the rest follow, proving just how strong their bond is. This song is sung by the club a few times throughout the game, and it's even used to get through to Reycho, allowing him to become self-aware despite initially starting out as a remote-controlled robot.
- Coud "Cou" Van Giruet and Reverie "Ren" Metherlence, Divine Couple of Piggyback Cutenote
- The female lead, Ren, has to recharge her by sleeping. Since Coud's party prefers to keep travelling, Ren tends to spend most of her time being carried on Coud's back. The fact that Coud has a crush on Ren as the two fall in love with each other actually makes this rather adorable.
- Rikka Isurugi/Black Fox, Mia, Melissa, Kasumi, Oboro, and Madara, Divine Team of Super Hero Origin Stories
- The movie Black Fox serves as an origin story for Rikka becoming the titular "Black Fox", with the film ending on a cliffhanger and Sequel Hook. Rikka is the descendant of a ninja clan who dreamed of becoming a scientist like her father. But when her father and grandfather are murdered, Rikka intended to track down the killers for revenge, using her family's ninja skills and her robot companions, before eventually developing a Thou Shall Not Kill mindset. She also forms a team with her two friends Mia and Melissa.
Rem and Ram, Twin Goddesses of Adopted Servants

- Symbol: Their respective hairclips
- Theme Music:
- Alignment: Neutral Good for Rem, Lawful Good or Lawful Neutral for Ram
- Portfolio: Adopted Maids, Dark and Troubled Past, Meido, Oni, Polar Opposite Twins, Theme Twin Naming, Peek A Bangs
- Rem: Action Girl, Badass Adorable, Initially hostile to Subaru, before falling in love with him because of his kindness, Epic Flail, Water Is Womanly, Devoted to Subaru, Loves everything about Subaru, Gets put into a coma after her memories are eaten, later waking up without any memories of the boy she loves
- Ram: Big Sister Instinct, Blow You Away, Has a crush on the shady and manipulative Roswaal, Was once the superior twin to Rem until her horn was cut off, Devoted to Roswaal, Becomes colder towards everyone (including Rem) but Roswaal after losing her memories of Rem
- Domains: Maids, Oni, Love, Power, Magic
- Allies: Subaru Natsuki (Especially for Rem), Emilia, Puck, Casca, Naminé, Sakuya Izayoi, G36, Fiona Mayfield, Rom and Ram, Masters of Spinjitzu
- Enemies: Szilard Quates, Rom, The Vacuous Spider
- Conflicted Opinion: Momotaro
- Wary of: The Oni
- Rem and Ram are the twin servants of the Roswaal Mansion, taken in by Roswaal after the Witch Cult destroyed their hometown and murdered their parents. They are both Oni that were born with one horn, though Ram's horn was permeantly broken off and left her de-powered. While both twins were initially distrustful and snarky towards Subaru, Rem would eventually fall in love and become devoted to him after he saved her life and helped her overcome her cycle of self-loathing. Sadly, Rem's memories and name were eaten by the Archbishop of Gluttony, putting her into a coma and erasing her from the memories of everyone except Subaru. Rem eventually awakens from her coma, but is no longer able to remember Subaru.
- Rem and Ram ended up summoned into the Pantheon by one of the gods in the Pantheon, though who it is unknown. The twins soon met their friends from the world, but since they were summoned as they currently are, relationships have been complicated and tense. Although Rem is awake, she still cannot remember anything from her past, and her lingering feelings for Subaru only confuse her. The Gods have been searching for a way to help restore Rem's memories, but all the attempts have only worked temporarily, so Rem spends more time as her post-amnesia self, with everyone else also temporarily remembering her. That said, the few moments Rem still has with Subaru are still precious to the latter, making him all the more determined to restore her.
- Naminé was greatly sympathetic with Rem's condition, since she was once forced to tamper with Sora's memories, causing him to temporarily forget people and for the people to forget him in turn. Unfortunately, since Rem's memory loss does not work the same way as those affected by her powers, as well as the fact that Sora never forged a bond with her, Naminé is unable to do anything to help Rem. She could only provide Subaru support and aid him to the best of her ability. Naminé promises she will do everything she can to help Subaru restore Rem's memories, which Subaru is quite grateful for.
- Casca sees a lot of similarities between herself and Rem, since they both fell in love with a man for who they are, but suffered from a terrible tragedy at the hands of a enemy that caused them to lose their memories. Both of the love interests have made it their goal to restore them to the people they once were, no matter how many hardships they have to endure. Casca and Rem became quick friends because of this, with Rem helping to console Casca and help her on the road to recovering from her trauma, and Casca in turn wanting to help find a true cure for Rem's condition.
- The twins have met other maids in the Pantheon, namely Sakuya Izayoi, G36 and Fiona Mayfield. G36 and Fiona both became instant friends with Rem, both her normal self and her amnesiac self, the former becoming a Cool Big Sister figure despite an initial creepy impression, and the latter becoming someone who is willing to share her burdens with Rem. Sakuya on the other hand gets along with Ram the most since they both possess great loyalty to their master and tend to talk to each other about how they best serve them.
- Their relationship with Momotaro is complex, since he did fight Oni who stole food from his village. Even though Rem and Ram are different from the Onis he fought, Momotaro is still not exactly on the best of terms with them, especially Ram when the latter reacted with hostility towards him. Both sides prefer to avoid each other ever since.
- Both of the twins have recently encountered the Ao Oni and have learned to fear it after it started appearing out of nowhere when they least expect it. Its presence causes Rem to reawaken her powers and turn into a berserker once more, forcing Subaru to try and calm her down once again. Ever since, the twins have avoided the Ao Oni's mansion to avoid a repeat of this incident.
- Rom and Ram, coincidentally or not, also happen to be polar opposite twins with pink and blue coloring. Rem and Ram respectively found themselves drawn to each girl respectively for their personality. Rom and Rem became instant friends with each other due to their reserved personalities, with Rom even going so far as to ship Rem with Subaru after seeing how much she loves him. Both Rams were so similar to each other that they quickly formed a kinship.
- The twins have learned of Rom, The Vacuous Spider from Ram's encounter with it. They learned just how dangerous it is to attack the creature, considering how it induces insanity and blindness in their attackers. The two tread carefully whenever they enter it's realm, showing great caution whenever they come close to it and great fear when they end up getting attacked by it as a result of someone else provoking it.
- The Masters of Spinjitzu were quite surprised to meet more Oni in the Pantheon, but they quickly saw that the twins weren't evil at all and were quite willing to be friends with them. While Ram is more snarky towards them (especially with Kai to the point of being Vitriolic Best Buds at best), Rem is polite and friendly towards them. The Ninja were horrified to learn of what happened to Rem and they promised to help Subaru with restoring her memories.

Chip, God of Chocolate (Light Gaia)
- Greater God
- Symbol: His necklace, a chocolate sundae, or Gaia Colossus
- Theme Music: Dear my Friend
- Alignment: Neutral Good
- Portfolio: Badass Adorable, Beware the Nice Ones, Big Eater, Really 700 Years Old, Ridiculously Cute Critter, Sweet Tooth, Nature Spirit, Pals with Jesus
- Domains: Light, Rebirth, Day, Earth, Sweets
- Allies: Sonic the Hedgehog, Tails, Viridi, Gaia, SpongeBob SquarePants, Patrick Star, Kirby, Fat Majin Buu, Shaggy and Scooby
- Enemies: Dark Gaia, Dr. Eggman
- Chip was a mysterious creature Sonic came across after Eggman drained the power of the Chaos Emeralds to break apart the planet in order to awaken Dark Gaia, which also turned Sonic into a Werehog at night. The little guy had no memories to recall who he was, so Sonic would name him Chip after all the chocolate chips he liked to eat. Helping Sonic throughout their adventure to restore the Chaos Emeralds and put the planet back together, Chip would eventually remember that he is Light Gaia, whose role was to restore the world to normal after Dark Gaia destroyed it, but being prematurely awakened by Eggman caused him to lose his memories. Chip would help Sonic fight against Eggman and put a stop to Dark Gaia, sacrificing himself to return Sonic to the surface before returning to dormancy alongside his dark counterpart.
- During a fight with Dark Gaia in the Pantheon, Sonic and his allies got quite the surprise when they saw the familiar Gaia Colossus come to fight Dark Gaia. Immediately recognizing Chip, Sonic would team up with him to force the dark entity to sleep once again, enjoying a cheerful reunion with his companion. Chip would explain that he was summoned by the Court of the Gods immediately when they had the chance to help them put a stop to Dark Gaia whenever it became a threat, and he now can stay active as long as he likes in the Pantheon. Chip would soon be integrated into Sonic's companions ever since.
- Chip has an amiable relationship with Gaia, a fellow spirit of the earth. They tend to hold social visits with each other to discuss how they can make the world a better place for everyone, while also encouraging their heroes to fight on (Sonic and his friends for Chip, The Planeteers and Captain Planet for Gaia). Chip comes to see Gaia as a motherly figure as she helps to guide him in protecting his planet.
- Chip is friendly with Viridi, but he frowns upon her hatred for humans and her extreme actions, seeing it as excessive. Viridi has hoped to persuade Chip into joining her team, but Chip has declined her offer, admitting that while he would like to be friends with her, he won't do so as long as Viridi still intends to wipe humans off the face of the Earth. Viridi hasn't given up though, and is still determined to show him that humans can't be trusted.
- Has heard of how SpongeBob and Patrick sold chocolate bars, and is all too willing to take a hundred or more from them. That being said, even Chip found it creepy to hear of how one customer kept chasing after the two for their chocolate, especially after the Mood Whiplash. SpongeBob and Patrick were at least grateful that Chip was a better patron than Tom was.
- Gets along very well with Kirby and the Fat Majin Buu as fellow eating partners, with all three of them enjoying sweets. Because of this, they tend to hang out in the House of Food to eat more desserts, especially chocolate and ice cream. There tends to be little-to-no limits in how much they can eat all at once.
- Chip has found kindred spirits in Scooby and Shaggy for their love of eating. The duo usually hangs out with him at almost every restaurant the Pantheon has, especially a place that serves sweets like an ice cream parlor. They also showed some fear towards monsters but are capable of showing courage. When confronted by a monster, Chip joins the chase through the Scooby-Dooby Doors. As a result, Chip has become an honorary member of Mystery Inc., and can be counted on as a friend and ally whenever he takes part in a mystery.

One more time before I post something different next page.
Kumiko Yamaguchi, Goddess of Psychologist Teachers (Yankumi, Mr. X, Gokusen, Kumicho, Masked Fighter)
- Potential House: Teachers

- Demigoddess
- Symbol: her red tracksuit
- Theme Song: Hontou no Kotoba, or Feel Your Breeze

- Opposes: Yui Ikari
- Opposed by: Tatsu Yamashiro/Katana
- Respects: Draco Malfoy
- Conflicting Opinion: Albus Dumbledore
- Teachers are supposed to help their students be prepared for the real world after graduation. Some of them take the extra mile and help their students with all sorts of social issues. No degree of psychology actually required, that's what defines a Psychologist Teacher.
- Kumiko Yamaguchi, fresh out of university, applied for a job as a teacher in Shirokin High School, an all-boys school renowned for being full of delinquents. She was put in charge of the worst class in the school — class 2-D, but despite their rowdiness, she was more than equipped enough to handle any trouble a bunch of snot-nosed kids can cause, given that she's an heriess to a Yakuza clannote , which she keeps secret (though she and the whole clan weren't that good at keeping secrets) due to schools being intolerant of gangs and people of dangerous backgrounds though the principal turns out to have hired her specifically due to her background, and the entire school eventually finds out near the end, but preferred to keep her either way. Throughout the rest of the series, Kumiko wins over her originally mistrustful students and improves their lives for the better, both through talking things out with them and a helpful dose of the Yakuza code.
- Kumiko's reason for being a teacher is because of back when her younger adopted siblings were allowed to graduate as long as they don't attend the graduation ceremony. After realizing that schools have been forgetting the real value of students and throwing out those who don't abide by the group rule, she decided she would help those impoverished students.
- It was the end of another day at Shirokin teaching delinquents when she arrives home, only to see a mysterious person with a letter of recommendation to a place called Elysium Academy. They told her to read it in private before she makes any decisions. One private read later, she found the offer acceptable and eventually earned a spot in the Pantheon.
- Just to get things out of the way, her Yakuza background is now made known from the start, given how poorly she and her clan are at keeping secrets, even if she might try to pass it off as being a fan of Yakuza media. And because the students for the most part are far smarter than Shirokin's (not that that's hard), and some of the idiots might not even notice any facade she might try to pull off, it would be disrespectful to assume they're fools. That said, they're not that ciritcal of her background, or at least it's not grounds for beings fired.
- Thanks to her background and experience with delinquents, she has no problem disciplining them when they get too rampant. She's heard that The Tōhōshinki and Tatsumi Oga are from schools filled with them, just like Shirokin High. Thankfully, they've progressively mellowed out. There's also the case of Kenji Kazama, though given the zaniness of the rest of his school, he at least has an excuse for shouting indoors so many times, and he's still a decent student otherwise.
- As a teacher who helps with her students' issues, she's gotten along with others who do the same, such as Eikichi Onizuka, Charles Xavier, Gentaro Kisaragi (who himself was a delinquent in his school days, though it's more from much of the elitism of the alumni than anything), and Byleth Eisner (though the whole could-be-either-gender thing was weird).
- As for Albus Dumbledore however, especially in light of his big plans for Harry and others throughout his years and his past with Grindelward, she's a bit more conflicted in her opinions of him.
- Koro-sensei is another teacher that has helped his students both academically and personally, and gets along wth him despite his reputation for being an alien and being pervy, not to mention teaching how to assassinate.
- Having heard of him through other psycologists, and seeing how badly he looks in Elysium Academy classes, Kumiko has a special interest in helping Shinji Ikari and his fellow EVA pilots. Naturally, because of his mistreatment of the boy, she opposes Gendo Ikari, and she doesn't think too highly of Yui Ikari either for her part in manipulating the boy.
- And of course, there are the nasty teachers, such as Trunchbull (and they get into fights more than once since Agatha has a hatred for twintails, which is how Kumiko wears her hair as a teacher), and Fletcher (for his abusive methods, even if they bear exceptional fruit when it works).
- As a Yakuza heiress, she can get antsy when it comes to law enforcement. But given her reputation in the mortal realm, she's at a truce with most of them. Of course, there are still the occasional zealot who care not for her non-evil stance, such as Inspector Javert and his allies, who try to arrest her on sight whenever they get the chance.
- On the other hand, she's had a better encounter with fellow Yakuza deity Kazuma Kiryu after undertaking a rescue mission for one of her students. The Dragon of Dojima had been in the area, and made swift work of the fools that dared get into their crosshairs. They became fast friends after that, him sensing her good heart. (add encounter with Goro Majima?)
- And then there was Tatsu Yamashiro/Katana, who has a vendetta against ALL people in the Yakuza due to having lost her family to them. After hearing about her from Kiryu, who fended off the vigilante with difficulty one time they crossed paths, Kumiko knew that reasoning with Katana was most definitely out of the question for the time being.
- There was a short time where she used to moonlight as a vigilante called Mr. X, but has since ceased that activity, prefering to instead help as either a teacher or as a Yakuza heiress. So there's no chance she's going to be confused for another Mr. X (or his daughter Miss Y) anytime soon.
- When it comes to beating up threats to her students, she's even taken out a demon once. And with so many other supernatural stuff in the Pantheon, there are dangers aplenty of all kinds, so she'll have to pick her battles.
- With all the jumping and kicking she does, she prefers to not wear skirts due to running the risk of doing a Panty Shot, though she will if she has to. Someone suggested she get some Modesty Shorts for such situations.
- Got entangled with some of the Phantom Thieves of Hearts after seeing Ryuji, Makoto, and Haru going up against a tough-ish monster and giving them the initiative via a Dynamic Entry flying kick. Once the threat was subdued and taken away, she was formally introduced to the group and what they did, and she turned out to be fully supportive of their cause. After hearing of their backstory, she stated that things would've been very different had she been at Shujin High. On the other hand, given her background, it's unlikely she would've been applicable as a teacher there anyway due to Kobayakawa not wanting someone in the yakuza as a teacher, even if he's part of the same conspiracy that had Kaneshiro in its payroll.
- Dislikes restrictive parents who think they can do whatever they please to their children, given Shin suffered that treatment under his father (before they and Kumiko eventually came to an understanding).
- Opposes children who abuse the power of their parents' influence (particularly authority over use of gangs) to do whatever they please, as well as parents who don't rein them in. Kumiko used to be bullied due to her background, but she never used her clan's name or asked them for help, because she believes it won't foster respect and loyalty.
- She holds great disdain for Lucius Malfoy because of this, while respecting his son Draco for moving away from that line of thinking.
- Is enemies with the Death Busters, as they are aliens who used a School for Scheming (founded by their Mad Scientist, Professor Souichi Tomoe/Germatoid) as a front while they worked to summon their boss Pharaoh 90 and awaken Mistress Nine. On top of their omnicidal ambitions, she isn't happy that said school is in the Pantheon as their temple.
Dr. Wilhelm Von Hell, God of Intellectuals Surrounded With Ineptitude (Great Marshall of Hell, Dr. Demon, Doctor Infierno, Mariscal Infierno)

- Allies: Johann Schmidt/Red Skull, Generalfeldmarschall Franz Vahlen, General Heinz Bohm, Hauptsturmfuhrer Rudolf von Sturmgeist, Yapool
- Rivals: Dr. Eggman
- Enemies: All non-evil-aligned mecha pilots like the entire GUAG Robot War Division, but Kouji Kabuto tops the list, with Tetsuya Tsurugi as a close second. Others include: Akira Fudou/Devilman, Cutey Honey, all Cybertronians, Autobots and Decepticons alike, all Kaiju, Sonic the Hedgehog and his friends, Izetta, The Basterds, Lt. Mike Powell, Lt. Karl Fairburne, William J. Blaskowicz
- For an Evil Overlord, when it comes to hiring help, it can be hard to find those competent enough. Or at least those who don't eventually intend to overthrow him. And thus one tends to be Surrounded by Idiots as a result.
- Dr. Wilhelm von Hell is a Mad Scientist with a desire to Take Over the World. Unfortunately, his lieutenants Baron Ashura and Count Brocken often bicker for his favor, often at the cost of whatever Mechanical Beast dispatched, and the Iron Mask and Iron Cross Armies weren't that brilliant either.
- In terms of backstory, Dr. Hell was a German born to parents who would grow to reject him. He would be friendless even in school, being isolated by his intelligence, before meeting fellow to-be-scientists Juzo Kabuto and Yumiko Shiozai. He had his eyes on Yumiko, but she was already won over by Juzo. Hell grew jealous over both this and Kabuto's accomplishments, and eventually left them in disgust. He would join the Nazis in World War II as a field medic and weapon scientist. There he met Count Brocken and kept his war crimes a secret in exchange for financing for his projects. After the war, he became an archaeologist, and found a pair of bodies each broken on one side of their bodies (though one source claims he damaged them on purpose). He would fuse the intact halves into a single entity, and they would be named Baron Ashura.
- In one of his later discoveries, Dr. Hell uncovered the island Bardos, but to find out if the legends he read about the island are true, he contacted other scientists, including Juzo Kabuto. But even when Juzo found out about Dr. Hell's plan, Hell forced the scientists to complete the Talos giants before having them all killed. Juzo was the only one to survive as he barely managed to escape. Dr. Hell would then awaken the Mechanical Beasts within the island and modify them before sending them out to conquer the world. His focus would eventually shift to Juzo after discovering his survival and Dr. Hell sent his forces to assassinate him. While this was mostly successful, he didn't count on one of his last creations Mazinger Z rearing its head, with Juzo's grandson Kouji at the controls. This would drive Hell into obsession to destroy/claim the giant robot as well as the Japanium ore in the Photoatomic Research Institute to build an unstoppable Mechanical Beast to take over the world.
- After a few years of the same routine of sending and losing one (or two) Mechanical Beast(s) after the other, the Institute eventually decided enough was enough, found Dr. Hell's base, and sent Mazinger Z and allies to storm the fortress and put an end to Dr. Hell once and for all... only for him to come back much later as the Grand Marshal of Hell in the Mycenae Empire, and thus in opposition to Juzo Kabuto's son Kenzo, and by extension Tetsuya Tsurugi and his allies. They and Kouji would eventually take him out for good this time...
- ...Until he somehow returned decades later during the events of Mazinger Z: Infinity, where he manages to rebuild and fortify his Mechanical Beasts in a fashion that even Great Mazinger cannot manage to defeat them (it didn't help that there were vital civilian structures in the area where Tetsuya was captured by them). His new goal would be to capture Infinity, a Mazinger-shaped mountain-sized machine found in Mount Fuji, and initiate Goragon, a universal reset in order to observe whether new potential worlds are worthy of existence. However, thanks to Kouji, the rescue of Tetsuya, their now-grown up brother Shiro piloting an Ichinana (a mass-produced Mazinger-shaped mecha), and the world uniting by sharing their Photonic Energy to Mazinger Z, they were able to destroy Infinity and Dr. Hell once and for all, for real this time.
- It was business as usual in the Pantheon when a titanic island-based mecha was sighted in space, striking SCP-2578-D from behind (given it was usually pointed at the Pantheon itself looking for fascists to shoot) before punching it out of course and into the Sun, though it managed to get a few shots in before being incinerated. The Death Star II barely fared any better, but took much more of a beating due to its size before suffering the same fate. It was only stopped from reaching the Pantheon itself because the Diamond Authority's temple planet was in the way, forcing their fleet and "Mega Diamond" to take him on first.
- In response, thanks to Steven Universe visiting at the time, then calling for help, the entire GUAG Robot War Division First and Third Battlegroups sortied to assist. As soon as the fleet approached, battle was joined, but as soon as Mazinger Z (well, Mazinkaiser) showed up, the titanic mecha—who was in a standstill with the Mega Diamond and had already decimated the Gem fleet by the time the Battlegroups arrived—immediately turned its attention to him as a voice within shouted Kouji's name before going all out on the heroes (and atoning Diamonds).
- Casualites were staggering, given Gordon Hell was meant for space conquest, but the likes of Neo Granzon, Voltron, Gurren Lagann, and timely aid from the Spear of Adun and Imperial Star Destroyers were able to keep Gordon Hell at bay until Mogo turned the tide by catching him with its beam and moving him straight into the Sun.
- Turns out this was all a ploy by the GUAE to ascend the base timeline Dr. Hell, which was done during the battle against Gordon Hell, having somehow "extracted" from the Dark Multiverse a Shin Mazinger ZERO!Dr. Hell who was successful in his conquest for this. In actuality, Gordon Hell going on a rampage wasn't the GUAE's idea, but someone in it was inspired to ascend Dr. Hell for real during the incident. As for why Dr. Hell fit the trope over all other possible candidates, it's because his attitude to the inteptitude of others not only applies to his subordinates, but to the entire world as well starting from his youth.
- As for how he is in the Pantheon, his base takes the form of Hell Castle, which used to be part of the Izu islands before he remodeled it in his image. Dr. Hell can also switch between his Grand Marshall and his "regular" human form at will. In terms of subordinates, only Baron Ashura, Count Brocken, and their Iron Masks and Iron Cross armies serve as his heralds. Viscount Pygman was excluded due to his betrayal, and because he was merely a high-ranking subordinate in Mycenae Empire, Archduke Gorgon wasn't included either.
- He wasn't pleased to needing to work under Melkor, but the Dark Lord providing him means to continually reproduce his Mechanical Beasts was a boon he couldn't ignore. And so one can add them to the giant threats the Pantheon faces regularly. And thus a lot of the Pantheon's mecha pilots and Kaiju that oppose them have another enemy to keep them busy.
- While the Mazinger cast and their alternate timeline allies (such as Ryoma Nagare) are his main adversaries, he's started to pay special attention to the MEGAS XLR and its crew, not only because of Coop's recklessness and tendency to do a lot of collateral damage, but the mecha being reverse-engineered from alien tech intrigues him as well.
- Due to his service in the Nazis before his tenure as an archaeologist, HYDRA contacted Dr. Hell for a collaboration. Having been further forced to accept aid, he decided to take them up on their offer. Upon getting a meeting with Red Skull in person though, he found that they were both poor and abused kids who grew up to be dangerous villains, so this alliance isn't that bad.
- His time in the Nazis has also granted him acceptable interactions with Generalfeldmarschall Franz Vahlen, General Heinz Bohm, and Hauptsturmfuhrer Rudolf von Sturmgeist, who have all spearheaded German wonderweapons development during WWII just like him. There's also Lt. Col. Arnold Berkman, who was from an Alternate Timeline where Nazi Germany is instead a Germanian Empire, but nonetheless helped the Empire develop several wonderweapons to counter Eylstadt's White Witch Izetta, including a clone of the original White Witch Sophie.
- Naturally, due to his association with these Nazis, he's also become the target of both Nazi hunters and Allied agents, such as The Basterds, Lt. Mike Powell, Lt. Karl Fairburne, and of course, William J. Blaskowicz. They may not pilot giant robots, but them getting tangled with his Iron Mask and Iron Cross forces is still problematic, especially during a Mechanical Beast attack kept busy by an allied mecha.
- Heard of a timeline where Akira Fudo/Devilman loses his faith in humanity and allows them to destroy themselves, and one where he personally wipes them all out (before unfortunately turning around). Intrigued by this, Dr. Hell is thinking he could try using this (as well as their connection in MazinSaga) to try (that's the key word here) to convert Akira to his side. For now though, he's an enemy due to his ties with Kouji.
- Used to be a follower of General Zod before becoming a Pantheon god, though as extremely proud villains they naturally don't get along. Additionally, Hell's plans for conquest clashes with Zod's goal of protecting Kryptonian survivors no matter the cost; given Shin Mazinger ZERO's version, Hell would've expanded across planets eventually.
- Yapool only sees Dr. Hell as a lowly human to be used and discarded, but otherwise cooperates with him by giving some of his Minus Energy, given that it manifests from the negative emotions of all living beings and can be reshaped to create monsters.
- For reasons he couldn't quite understand, he's found himself with a rivalry in Dr. Eggman, who is an equally recurring mad scientist with a passion for extravagant robot designs. He doesn't think too highly of him however given how frequently he loses to someone without a giant robot, though Sonic and his cadre are counted as enemies as well.
- In one timeline, Autobots and Decepticons ended up getting entangled in his war against Mazinger Z. Baron Ashura once managed to trick the Autobots to fighting on their behalf, but ended up jumping the gun on betraying them and was eventually forced to retreat. And then the Decepticons showed up with offers to assist, but during the assault, Starscream stole spare Mazinger parts and decided to turn on everyone, forcing everybody to cooperate to stop him, and it ended with the Cybertronians teleporting away to where they came from. Dr. Hell loathes them all as a result.
Finally, I put together a first draft for this group. Suggestions appreciated.
And before anyone asks, yes I'm aware I didn't link the music and Chesed's allies. That comes later.

- Respected by/Respects:
- Pitied by/Pities:
- Opposed by/Opposes:
- Conflicting Opinion:
- Lobotomy Corporation was one of the 26 Wings of the World that governed the City and its inhabitants. The main branch’s facility is divided into departments, each one managed by a different AI known as a Sephirah. While they do their jobs well enough, their personalities are all dysfunctional in some shape or form. As the Manager would find out, their connection with the Sephirot goes far deeper than just working at the same company. Save for Angela, the Sephirot are not true AI — they’re people he was familiar with in life as Ayin before L Corp was formed, resurrected as machines leading the different sectors where he would eventually make peace with after their Meltdowns during the time loop and fulfilling their ultimate goal of curing mankind’s “disease”.
- Thinking they’d finally be laid to rest after shining the Seed of Light across the City, Angela rose up and tried to hijack it for herself. After a long battle, the two sides decided to strike a deal in which Angela would create the Library. Here, they’d be brought back and serve as Patron Librarians and help receive Guests while they hope to complete the project they bled and died for. Despite their agreement, none of them are thrilled to throw human life away again and are very vocal about it even as the Library grows and rises in threat level, though thankfully Angela would eventually have a change of heart and restart the Seed of Light after all.
- (ascension)
- Like Angela and Roland they would be joined by the Assistant Librarians, former employees of L Corp’s main branch, to serve as their Heralds. They mainly helped assist the Patron Librarians in receiving Guests though after Angela’s change of heart they no longer do that. In the Pantheon, they are usually either on their off time or running errands for their bosses and during their first day, they wasted no time in taking some time off after everything happened.
- Contrasting the Head Librarian and Grade 9 Fixer, however, the group would be joined by another Herald: Tiphereth B aka Enoch. Having suffered breakdowns and restarts that became more frequent over time he was eventually put to rest by the time L Corp went under. Everyone else chose to leave them alone as Tiphereth A/Lisa tearfully reunited with her dearest companion.
- (Abnormalities)
- Malkuth only:
- The cheerful and passionate Patron Librarian of History and former Serphirah Head of the Control Team. She was once an impatient and clumsy woman named Elijah whose desperate desire to prove herself lead to her death to Cogito after a private experient went horrifically wrong. Reborn as Malkuth, she retained the earnest desire of her previous life which lead to her pushing the employees under her care to their absolute limit. Following her Meltdown, however, began to move past her desire for validation in favor of standing on her own two feet instead. While Malkuth is still as bright and hardworking as ever, she takes care to be more reflective of the past instead of blinding moving forward after becoming a Librarian.
- (people who were/are clumsy and/or wanted to prove themselves)
- (dreams of being an architect after everything)
- ”It feels good to finally have the time to reflect on myself. Looking back at the lives I lived and the history I made. I think we didn’t spend enough time looking back. We were all too busy heading forward.”
- Yesod only:
- The calm, orderly, and professional Patron Librarian of Technological Sciences who was once the head of the Information Team. His past life as Gabriel was much the same, but something about him changed after Elijah’s death. While he bottled up his emotions his guilt surrounding her demise became an obsession with safety and soon he couldn’t stand to expose his skin lest he kept scratching at himself until he clawed himself to death. As Yesod, his cold demeanor earned him the reputation of being a heartless Sephirah but it couldn’t be any farther from the truth. Following his Meltdown, Yesod allows himself to be more expressive without having to compromise his judgment and it is best shown with disdain for Angela’s plans with the Library and her emphasis on the results rather than the process.
- (logical but willing to express his emotions)
- (Neat Freak)
- “We live in a world where everything changes constantly. It is not necessarily rational or wise to blindly follow a goal determined in the past. To keep up with the rapid changes this world goes through, we must maintain discretion at all times.”
- Netzach only:
- The lethargic and moody Patron Librarian of Art and former Sephirah Head of the Safety Team. His original self, Giovanni, was an orphan who grew up in K Corp’s Nest and was a childhood friend to Carmen. He kept to himself for the most part, but he ended up volunteering for an experiment that was said to save the life of Carmen. In reality, it was to test Cogito’s dosage and his “noble sacrifice” did nothing to save a woman who was already gone. Waking up as Netzach, he hated his job because he saw no point in trying to save the employees and mainly drank and took Enkephalin to pass the time. After his attempt at overdosing failed, Netzach took a step back and began to hold onto a bit of hope for the future and push through the pain to continue living. While Angela’s sabotage of the Seed of Light did little wonders for his mood, he still took what he learned back then to heart like everyone else and retained his appreciation for life and courage to live through many more tomorrows.
- (drinking)
- (patron of the floor of art, dreams of being one himself in another life)
- “Whatever you might be feeling right now, don’t just throw it away. Life goes on, after all. We all deserve to turn to the next chapter of our lives. So try to believe that there’s always gonna be an upcoming page to what you might be thinking is the end. Simply living out your life can be its own work of art.”
- Hod only:
- Empathetic, demure, and overall very approachable Patron Librarian of Literature who used to lead the Training Team. Michelle was a young and timid girl in Carmen’s circle of followers. While bold to leave her Nest life behind, Michelle became increasingly disturbed by the deaths of her fellow colleagues. At one point she broke under pressure and reported what she saw to the Head, who proceeded to send an Arbiter to destroy the lab, and the guilt was enough for her to hang herself. As Hod, she saw her second life as a chance to make up for what she has done, but it was partly driven to assure she’s a good person. Her overbearing will to help had mixed results, and her lack of appreciation for it led to her Meltdown. After that, Hod came to a realization about her selfishness and vowed to be more genuine in her attempts from that point onward. Despite her grievances, Hod couldn’t bring herself to hate Angela believing she had her own reasons and sorrows to do so and believes she’s capable of becoming a good person in the end as well (which would be proven right, though it would be a long journey beforehand).
- (whistleblowers: Tommy Angelo. Hoxton hates ‘em)
- (book club)
- “Everyone has their own stories. Even if someone is committing bad things right now… I don’t want to judge them based on solely the snippets I see of them. So I try to understand them in depth.”
- Tiphereth only:
- The blunt and direct kid with a sharp tongue who serves as the Patron Librarian of Natural Sciences, formerly one of the dual Sephirot of the Central Command Team. In life, she was a little girl named Lisa who was always by the side of a boy named Enoch. They lived in the Outskirts together until a Fixer named Kali brought them to Carmen’s lab. Enoch was idealistic and wise for his age and volunteered for an experiment in Carmen’s stead that got him killed and Lisa cursed Carmen for it. She herself would be killed by the Arbiter’s attack on their facility in the Outskirts but she and Enoch would be resurrected as the Sephirah Tiphereth. While they handled their roles well, Tiphereth B/Enoch was prone to breaking which led to him being disposed of and replaced. Having to relive his death over and over again leads to Tiphereth A/Lisa breaking down. Following that, she admits that she held no expectations for the future as he did and was seriously bitter not being able to see things the way he did. Starting now, however, Tiphereth would begin to hold onto the idea that things could get better next time and there's something to be found after going through so much pain.
- (Enoch)
- (magical girls)
- “It’s expectations that give us the strength to push through hardship... That we can trust things to become better tomorrow. That my life holds possibilities and significance that could make this world a better place.”
- Gebura only:
- The usual ways to describe the Patron Librarian of Language and former head of the Disciplinary Team are as follows: Hot-blooded. Kali grew up in the Backstreets of District 23, a part of the City infamous for cannibalism. She got used to the ever-present brutality there and took up Fixer work to get by and try and protect the people who didn’t disappear so soon. Sometime before becoming the Red Mist she overheard Carmen giving one of her many speeches in the Backstreets and ended up following her because her instincts told her she wasn’t any other hack or swindler. Even someone as strong as Kali could not elude death as she gave her life trying to defend the facility from rampaging Abnormalities, two Claws, and an Arbiter. Her failure to protect everyone manifested as an ever-burning hatred for Abnormalities which almost lead to the Sephirah leveling the company in her Meltdown. She soon calmed down upon recalling she didn’t completely fail to protect everyone and became far more cool-headed and tempered which carried over while becoming a Librarian.
- (mercs + protectors)
- (Red Mist E.G.O. and Mimicry: Soul Series deities)
- (Tame Her Anger)
- “I’d be lying if I said I didn’t feel any anger or regret. Even though I couldn’t protect everyone, I saved the ones I could.”
- Chesed only:
- Probably the most casual and social of his group, whether as the Patron Library of Social Sciences or the Sephirah Head of the Welfare Team. He was a member of the upper-class named Daniel who had the intelligence and skill to pursue whatever future he wanted but his path would lead to him being among Carmen’s supporters. His life would come to an abrupt end at the hands of an Arbiter, who would intimidate him into releasing the Abnormalities on site. While Chesed would start off eager to work in L Corp, his position would soon break him into becoming into the laidback Sephirah directly under Angela’s thumb. After his attempt at rebellion is foiled during his Meltdown, Chesed chooses to not let his guilt and shame control him while he stops running away from the future and work towards making it better. While Angela foiling the Seed of Light and becoming a Librarian under her wing is unfortunate, Chesed is calm and relaxed as ever with the added caveat of being genuinely optimistic this time around. His somewhat playful attitude can (deliberately) get on people’s nerves, Gebura being his usual target, but its all in good faith and is a genuinely nice person.
- (coffee. Godot, Pandemonica, Jack Atlas, Sojiro)
- “Maybe we can’t change the things considered normal right away. Even then, we’ll know shame at the very least. Simply knowing shame in this society will change a lot of things.”
- Binah only:
- Enigmatic, ominous, and insightful are perhaps the biggest descriptors when describing the Patron of Philosophy and former Sephirah of the Extraction Team. As a human, she wasn’t a part of Carmen’s circle but an Arbiter sent to eradicate them and their lab. Thanks to the Red Mist incapacitating her, Ayin was able to probe her mind of the information needed to elude the Head’s wrath before converting her as a Sephirah in charge of the Well. As Binah, she despised Ayin for the torture she currently endures and found it laughable he stuck himself in the same hell to achieve some lofty goal. Her tune would change after witnessing his perseverance firsthand and became more supportive of his goals of breaking the cycle of the City. While she would willingly assist Angela’s rebellion, she still speaks of him highly and encourages those to be more open-minded about him. By the time she became a Librarian, she is genuinely courteous and personable compared to the unrepentant sadist she once was. Not only would she provide Roland the final lesson that would push him to spare Angela she also saved him and Gebura from the Head’s agents and assists in defending Angela from them by the end.
- (tea: Uncle Iroh, Byleth, Alice)
- (Singularities)
- ”The City as it is. Humans as they are. And us as we are. Observe simply what your eyes can see, without imputing any external values to it.”
- Hokma only:
- The Patron Librarian of Religion and previous head of the Records Team is serious, wise, and most of all stalwart. Benjamin, also known as B, was Ayin and Carmen’s closest confidant. As the other survivor of the Arbiter’s attack on their hideout, he was responsible for kickstarting the Smoke War to found L Corp and assisted in creating Angela. Loyal as he was, though, he ended up becoming disillusioned by Ayin and left him. However, he would eventually come back to try and get Ayin to leave everything behind, but he would be killed and converted into a Sephirah through Ayin’s orders. Now known as Hokma, his only solace then was spending time with Ayin along with their other deceased loved ones but eventually relented after his Meltdown. He is perhaps left the most bitter by Angela thwarting the Seed of Light but even with his current abrasive attitude he still took the time to point out that deep down she also cared about the Sephirot and she doesn’t need to heed Carmen’s advice anymore, the final lesson that would allow her to finally back down from her goals.
- (loyalty and faith to A/Ayin)
- (time)
- “You must accept the death of the past, and reinvigorate yourself as you head toward the future, so that you may live on. No matter what conflicts, agonies, and regrets you may face in that process… You have to grow onward while facing the future and be born again.”

A universe of infinity held within a singular dot. Thus a collection of dots a collection of infinities does it become...Been a while since i worked on anything.
Here is a draft for Gill. Leader of the a secret society (illuminati), Dark Messiah figure with angelic motifs, also a very obvious Duality Motif and controls ice and fire. I have a few ideas already but i wouldn't mind some suggestions
Welcome to your death!
Gill, God of Color Specific Elements (Lord and Emperor of the Illuminati, The Savior of Humanity, The Dark Messiah)
- Intermediate God (Potentially a Greater God)
- Symbol: The All-Seeing Eye of The Illuminati.
- Theme Song: Nile (Drum & Bass Mix or The Emperor Doesn't Look Back* ), The Judgment Day when enacting plans, Psyche Out in battle
- Alignment: True Neutral
- Portfolio: Respects his Opponents and Recognizes Their Abilities, Made Emperor of the Illuminati Simply Because of His Power and Destiny, The Dark Messiah Who Declares Himself as a God, Combines Ice Powers with Fire Powers, Well Intentioned Extremists, Hard to Defeat and Cheap Bosses, Stripperific Combat Loinclothing, "RESURRECTION!", The Seraphic Wing, Anti Villains, The Big Bad of Street Fighter III
- Domains: Fire, Ice, World Saving, Balance, Combat
- Superior: Bill Cipher (or so it seems)
- Associates of The Illuminati: Kolin, Vandal Savage
- Allies: Kars, Esidisi, Santana, Wamuu, Algol
- Rivals:
- The Street Fighters: Urien (his brother), Karin Kanzuki (unknown to her)
- Other Rivals: Shinnok, Führer King Bradley
- Enemies:
- The Street Fighters: Alex, M. Bison, Dudley, Elena, Ken Masters, Ryu, Akuma, Chun-Li, Remy, G
- Other Enemies: Shao Kahn, Satan (Lords of Shadow), Zobek, Kouta Kazuraba/Kamen Rider Gaim, Kaito Kumon/Kamen Rider Baron, Kano
- Manipulating: Charlie Nash, Juri Han, Rashid
- Closely Watching: High Councilor Kal-El/Regime Superman
- The enimactic emperor of the Illuminati, from a young age Gill was meant for greatness as the center of a great prophecy. Genetically modified to become the Emperor of The Illuminati and The Savior of Humanity, Gill has been given the power to use both flames and ice through his red and blue sides, among other supernatural abilities. His goals are shrouded in mystery, only seeking to fulfill an apocalyptic agenda where he will save humanity and guide them to salvation, as was foretold years ago. Now in the Pantheon, he wants to ensure that goal also comes to pass here and doesn't really care if he has to unveil himself to the Pantheonic masses, in the end he will be the savior of humanity.
- Turns out his claim as the "leader" of the Illuminati is up to debate, not because of some petty scheme designed by Urien to overthrow him, but because many sects of the Illuminati outside of his universe don't see Gill as their emperor and refuse to follow him, something that definitely didn't amuse him.
- "The mark of my divinity shall scar thy DNA."
Proposal for rework.
Bill Cipher, The All-Seeing Triangle of Evil (Dream Demon, Triangle Guy, Isosceles Monster, Master of the Mind, Bipper (When in the body of Dipper Pines), The Beast with Just One Eye, Sixty Degrees That Come in Threes)
Reasoning: His profile...there are a lot of texts, but they aren’t long at all. There are about three or four there that are long enough, and his ascension text is also short. He has no bio. He fits this as this is one of his favorite tactics. The triangles and eye symbols around the town? He uses them to spy on the material realm and its people to learn and plot his next moves in his goal to cause Weirdmageddon. It works.

I’m plotting my schemes wherever I go! They’re perfect in every way…Go ahead on the rework.

- Opposed by: Anyone who made a Deal with the Devil and lost
- Wary of: Cthulhu
- In the original story, the sea witch was actually a neutral character who even warned the titular character about the negative consequences of becoming a human. But as told by Disney, Ursula is a power-hungry schemer cynical of love. This is the main reason why Ursula is the goddess of Villains Through Adaptation. Furthermore, she also took elements of the good-hearted princess that marries the prince, and drags her image to antagonism, strengthening her claim to throne. Of course, people know more about the Disney version.
- Her first appearance in the pantheon wasn't actually legal: she just popped right out of the ocean while Dimitri Lousteau was out on another one of his dives. The other Disney Villains recognized her and pended to allow Ursula to stay as a goddess. After she ascended, Ursula has been seen along with fellow Disney Villainesses Lady Tremaine and the Evil Queen, as well as Courtney Gears (an unofficial Disney Villainess), speaking of a plot to overthrow Maleficent following evidence that she may not be evil all along. The Mistress of All Evil pointed out the Sea Witch wasn't all that evil in the story she debuted, so if she gets the reverse treatment it shouldn't demote her. Besides this spat, Maleficent and Ursula get along.
- After watching Maleficent and Cruella, Ursula is wondering if she will get her own Sympathetic P.O.V. movie reversing her Adaptational Villainy, maybe even giving her Adaptational Heroism from the original tale. It's pure speculation, but she's interested in the possible irony.
- She soon made herself known as a friend of many Disney villains. She's one of Hans' few friends in the pantheon because Ursula is exploitative and cynical with the whole "love" thing, and believe getting him to marry princesses for his benefit will help her in a "you scratch my back" situation. The sea witch likes to associate herself with the villainesses more, such as Yzma for her extravagant fashion sense, but also gets along with Oogie Boogie because of their flamboyant trickster nature. A pirate villain like Captain Hook has also benefited from Ursula's assistance, though a lot of that is because it's free of charge.
- Ursula noticed that in the setting of Kingdom Hearts a number of her fellow Disney villain become nastier or straight up lose their sympathetic elements, notably the aforementioned Hans who becomes a Savage Wolf who wants to cover Arendelle in darknessnote . She initially thought she was an ironic exception as she still loves her eels, but she's still depicted as more nefarious; that is, willingness to destroy her world for her ambitions. She sighed a bit, but was more angry at Sora and friends killing her eels.
- She'd love to take control of the ocean, and in lieu of Triton's trident she's been searching for other venues of power like artifacts in The Great Treasury. Ursula knows that there are other kings of the seas, and besides King Triton and his family her greatest obstacle may be Arthur Curry. The sea witch has attempted to get the support of his half-brother Orm and his arch-enemy Black Manta, but they consider her rivals to their own ambitions. For Ocean Master his relationship with Aquaman is complicated, and for Black Manta he's made it clear to her he's Aquaman's greatest enemy and she should stay out of his feud. Ursula merely replied "shame".
- It isn't mentioned that much, but Ursula is Triton's sister; whether that means she's the daughter of Poseidon is unknown, but given the "appetite" of the Greek Gods she doesn't put it off the table. Whenever his brother Hades is in bad guy mode, the two find themselves getting along wonderful due to a number of similarities between the twonote . Sometimes she can be found scheming with Scar.
- Visually takes a lot of inspiration from the Drag Queen archetype. Combined with being as funny as she is threatening, and it's not all that shocking she and Dr Frank-n-Furter get along well. Her One-Winged Angel form in reminiscent of the Kraken, being a great and terrible cephalopod, and she's grown fond of the Giant Squid. Others have compared her death by being rammed into by a boat to how Cthulhu was originally defeated. Ursula has heard of the sunken city of Ry'leh and this incident, and she also knows it's suicidal for even one as ambitious as her to tangle with the Great Old One.
- She has a very shallow view on love, considering it little more than lust. She knows that most in the House of Love and Affection think she's a cynical bitch about it, but doesn't give a damn what they think. Given his own experience with love, along with their role as tentacled, nautical Disney villains, Davy Jones found himself getting along with her. She made a deal to help him sink any ship he chooses after the death of the Kraken. Based on the reports of survivors of those attacks, Ursula seems to be enjoying this role.
- May isn't a fan of Ursula due to her friendship with Ariel. Ursula was interested to learn that she had serve a maternal role over a Prince of the Sea tied to the underwater palace of Samiya made by the People of the Water, which reminded her of Atlantis. Ursula has also shown some interest in the Inklings, Octolings and Octogeddon as like her they're cephalopods. Beyond amusement at the latter's rampages, however, she hasn't said anything on what that interest entails.
- Her devil deals are why of the male Disney villains, she's especially fond of Dr Facilier. Given what happened to him he was hesitant due to fearing she would put him in a Faustian bargain. She calmed him down by saying she's looking for an equal partner, not a pawn; he'll help him spread her figurative tentacles to the land as well. Plus she needs more than Oogie Boogie to play cards with. Their game eventually had Eris join, and as a figure of chaos and mischief the group soon became chummy with her. All of this made Faust sweat at what "arrangement" they were brainstorming together.
- Rumors persist that Ursula has a crazy sister named Morgana, who bitterly envies being The Un-Favourite, and wishes to triumph over Ursula to gain their mother's attention. HOWEVER, Clank believes that "Morgana" is really Ursula in disguise. Wanting revenge for her downfall, she faked her death and used her magic to pose as a younger sister of Ursula and King Triton and altered everyone's memories to make them think she always existed. But then a spell went wrong, and Ursula's memories were wiped and altered, too!
- But now rumors persist that Ursula has a daughter named Uma. How is she going to justify that when she can't even justify her own sister?
Clank: First, they say she has a sister. Now they say she has a daughter? Guess they'll next explain that Morgana and Uma are just illusions of her own leaking imagination. Hehehehehe. - Has been killed more than once, but always seems to come back later on. It's presumed that she got this power from Maleficent, considering their alliance and the latter herself being brought back from the dead. Prior to her ascension, Ursula's last known whereabouts were at the Destiny Islands just before it became a Sleeping World, but that may have just been a phantom. There are also sightings of her countless teams of Disney characters from different universes, both hero and villain, and in both her normal and empowered form, with most attempts ending in the entire party getting defeated. Overpowered teams have managed to defeat her in one attempt, with very few casualties.
- Unlike a lot of (in)famous Disney villains, Ursula treats her minions well and was deeply hurt when she accidentally killed her pet eels Flotsam and Jetsam. She tried to petition her "little poopsies" for the Slippery as an Eel trope, but it was taken and she's still upset they can't join her in divinity. Her fond relationship with the eels is why she treats ascended eels with kindness, and it certainly helps that the official holder of title, Anago, is a Fiendish Fish with ambition.
- One of the odder team-ups in the pantheon was her and Plankton. The scheming plankton wanted to work out a deal with Ursula so he may finally achieve his dream of stealing the Krabby Patty formula. The sea witch initially rolled her eyes at this, but Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy were soon alerted to what was happening and the former demanded the latter aid in thwarting the EVIL! scheme. Spongebob and Patrick soon ended up getting entangled in the chaos, as did Mr Krabs because he couldn't have anyone taking his formula. Ursula finally decided to aid Plankton because she could use his inventions better than him, and she was impressed at the time he mind controlled Bikini Bottom, even King Neptune before being defeated by the power of rock.
- One of her freakier and more disturbing traits is what she does to the "poor unfortunate souls" who fail to meet the near-impossible tasks of her deals; she turns them into miserable little polyps doomed to wriggle pointlessly in her garden until they/she dies. She also eats semi-anthropomorphized shrimp and lives in the bones of a sea monster. Needless to say, most in the right mind don't trust her. She creeps Ponyo the hell out, but she prefers to just stay away from her than confront her. The sea witch has noticed the similarities between her and Ariel; mermaids interested in being human. Of course, Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea is based on The Little Mermaid, if very loosely, so Ursula isn't surprised.
@ SailorVenus: for the Bill rework. They'd be enemies with Nom Anor as he is apart of the Yuuzhan Vong, a brutal race of religious conquers foreign to the Star Wars universe who bear an intense hatred for machinery and exclusively use Organic Technology due to being attacked by mechanical invaders in the past.
The 00-Cyborgs were normal people who were turned into cyborgs by the terrorist organization known Black Ghost for the sake of perpetuating war. It was only through the help of a former Black Ghost scientist that they turned against the organization who made them who they are.
@ Mattman: For the two maids, The Hårga, The Fifth Church, and Los Iluminados are cults. The Hag, Saira & Kaira, and Baba Yaga are witches.
For Chip, Swamp Thing is a Plant Person serves The Green, the collective life force of plants. Lavos is a Planetary Parasite that had influenced the world and is all but guaranteed to destroy it if not stopped.
@ Faso: The Court of Owls is an Ancient Conspiracy dating back to Pre-Revolution America that the Batfamily had to deal with when they declared them to be a threat to their rule.
The ascended Symphogear deities tangled with the Illuminati proper and even before they took center stage as antagonists they had some a hand in the background and were also the ancient enemy of the season 1 Big Bad, Finé. He'd remind them of the Illuminati's founder, Adam Weishaupt, due to his build and monstrous power though his ideals would somewhat closer to Saint-Germain, one of the top brass whose main goal was breaking the chains of oppression set upon mankind.
