Trope Pantheons Discussion

I've been wondering something: if a villain ascends after getting a Death Equals Redemption moment, is that supposed to carry over to their profile, or is it up to the author? Whether it is or isn't could create inconsistencies regarding whether they just got an Ignored Epiphany.

I think it should be kept unless it makes sense for the character in the situation they'd find themselves in the pantheon

What members of the undead would be of particular interested to SCP-049, get along with or oppose the Plague Doctor?

• SCP-049, known as the Plague Doctor, looks like a classic Plague Doctor. However he has a Touch of Death which kills people. This isn't done out of malice, but as part of his effort to cure the mysterious "Pestilence". Afterwards he performs experiments on the corpse and revives it as zombies, who tend to be really aggressive and attack people; these instances are known as SCP-049-2. He was discovered during the investigation of a series of unknown disappearances in the town of Montauban in southern France, and proved a Graceful Loser to fellow men of science. Just don't let him slip up. He used to not say much, but nowadays he's rather talkative and comes off as a reasonable man.
• SCP-049 was first found wandering the Pantheon after he was reported to have "performed surgery" on a few deities he stumbled upon and was later properly relocated to a nearby temple. What surprised the Court of Gods is that he didn't fight back and was very polite to them. He was taken aback by the appearance of Plague Knight for being like him, but the Plague Knight doesn't really have the same goals as the doctor. They're still friends, which incensed Osmosis Jones as he feels 049 is too reckless and a threat that needs to be dealt with. The animosity is one-sided as the Plague Doctor is fascinated by a the idea of sentient white blood cells, believing Ozzy could be the key to curing the pestilence. Dr House has also shit on him for his Deadly Doctor practices.
• For some reason he's the one person that SCP-096 doesn't attack when seeing its face, and serves as its Only Friend. Research was done into both of their backstories, which proved fruitless. He may have made a Deal with the Devil to cure a plague that drove his wife to suicide, or he was a circus performer who used to perform necromancy for the circus but lost those wings and was brain damaged. Truth is he likely doesn't remember, but he does know he hates it whenever the Joker likes to reference the "I prefer multiple choice" line and "one bad day" statement. 049 is Obliviously Evil, but he's sane enough to know the Joker is a truly wicked man. Also, he'd like to inform people that his robes and mask "aren't clothes".
• He also might be a peasant stole a dead doctor's credentials doctor to scam people and gain money for his family, unknowingly being roped by one of the Brothers Death to spread death and pretend to be a doctor. After becoming rich he returned to his home to reunite with his family, but his wife succumbed to disease, however his daughter inherited his immunity. The Grand Judges of Death have yet to confirm or deny if their "kindred" did this and SCP-049 prefers not to bring it up, either because out of trauma or not wanting people to think he isn't a doctor. He has only expressed a burning hatred for one Death's cohort, Pestilence of the Horsemen, for being a representation of his sworn enemy.
• Occasionally lay eggs like a bird, and his most recent egg^note according to the Joke articles, at least hatched into SCP-049-J. While 049 is a Deadly Doctor, 049-J is an idiot who tried to heal a sore throat by beating it with a shoe. Despite the incompetence 049 still loves the Plague Fellow. It's also why he has a soft spot for Zoidberg as he reminds him of his son. That said like the Plague Doctor Zoidberg is brilliant in a certain medical field; alien biology for him. The Plague Doctor was intrigued to learn about his friend Fry for the Delta Brainwave, which made him hopeful the abnormality also meant he was free of the Pestilence. Zoidberg politely asked 049 not to give Fry a physical though, which 049 honored.
• SCP-049 aims to end the Pestilence by operating on his patients. However, he doesn't realize that there is no such Pestilence and that he causes more harm than good but no one is able to convince him otherwise...at least that's the Foundation's stance. Some have compared his crusade to Don Quixote's, which bugs him. Comparing him to Cioccolata and Fabius Bile enrages him since he wants to help people, and they either want to find Fame Through Infamy or is just a Sadist (though he won't deny they're skilled in their craft). Gravelord Nito tried to persuade him into stopping his crusade to end the Pestilence; knows better than anyone since he knows when to release one after all. Though the Doctor showing standards got Nito's hopes up, 049 refuses to believe the Pestilence isn't real.
• The Lunatic Cultist is also on his shit-list as while he's not a spreader of plague and disease nor does he actually commit to any medical malpractice he is open to such an idea for future reference, and yet he has the gall to look like a Plague Doctor. Said Cultist thinks he's the pot calling the kettle black, but conceded he's probably right. In addition SCP-049 holds a deep loathing for Mad Scientist Anton Arcane in spite, and partly because of their similarities; they meddle with life and death and are necromancers who make dangerous creatures. However the Plague Doctor acts in a misguided fashion to fight the Pestilence, while Arcane is just a psychopath and wants to rule the world in his Ax-Crazy vision. 049 has sworn since then evil necromancers, as right to control the will of the deceased, but was again denounced as a Hypocrite. In fairness, he might not be entirely aware of what he is causing.
• Because SCP-049's persistence of curing a likely non-existent disease and mostly unethical practices in doing so, he's seen as a Black Sheep among most physicians. He's somewhat confused by their disdain for him, and has come to respect gods like Nightingale. Even the fact he's seen as Asia Argento's Evil Counterpart given that her hands are able to heal almost any injury doesn't matter to him; he admires her kindness and dedication. He also hasn't sensed the plague within her, probably because Asia is no longer human and so he doesn't need to cure her. She only wishes his madness would leave him and he could become a good doctor, even with the Touch of Death still there.
• He does have friends in the field of health, but they tend to skew to the Deadly Doctor spectrum. The Medic recognizes him as a good surgeon and doctor, and the Plague Doctor agrees he's one as well. Fran Madaraki is another friend; he sees her as a spirited young girl who really wants to help out her patients the best way possible. Although Fran is very aware that 049 surgery does little to "cure the Pestilence" as she puts it out, she appreciates it. It's very rare for them to participate in any surgery, however, since the Foundation doesn't want them performing joint experiments that'd undoubtedly cause a Fate Worse than Death. Recently declassified information revealed that the Oni was another friend, just not in the field of health, as 049 believes he is free of the Pestilence and identifies the Ao Oni's "methods" are similar to his production of 049-2. They never hang, though.
• Most of the Sephirot/Patron Librarians followed a woman named Carmen and she sought to cure the “disease of the mind” that existed within every human living in the City. Treating it was the true objective of the Lobotomy Corporation. SCP-049 was overjoyed as he believes that Carmen finally found a cure of the Pestilence and wants to ask them for their help in curing the rest of humanity from it, only to be met with a big fat rejection. They recognized him as being very similar to an Abnormality called the Plague Doctor. This being slowly metamorphosizes each time he blesses an employee and by the 12th baptism, he reveals his true form as the god-like WhiteNight. Afterwards he breaches and transforms the other 11 blessed into beings known as Apostles to “redeem” everyone else in the facility aka horrifically killing them all. They thus consider the SCP as insane, if pitiable, while he believes it's simply a matter of them needing to learn to trust him.
• He is completely against Albert Wesker's plans of using different viruses, claiming that no one should spread disease like it was child's play. Wesker found it very amusing that SCP-049 has unwittingly done the same thing and Wesker is even interested in learning more about the kind of powers that the doctor possesses, however the Plague Doctor retorted by saying though his actions are extreme they are done to cure the worst disease of all. He is also not fond of Typhus and his superior Nurgle, as they share the Plague Doctor aesthetic but go against his cause. Ironically, Nurgle also thinks that he is doing good. It's said that SCP-049 isn't fond of Alex Mercer; it's implied that he met him once and says that there is nothing he can do that would cure him and considers him a lost cause.
• One day after breaking containment, he wandered near Mana Ouma's temple and sensed within her a plague that he hadn't encountered before and sought to "cure" Mana. Thankfully he wasn't able to get close to her given the catastrophic implications it would have if SCP-049 touched Mana, considering the apocalypse virus resides within her. He still remembers her, but understand that she doesn't want to get treated. He believes that her condition is not as critical as the Pestilence he is fighting to cure. Still, while dealing with the Pestilence is top priority he considers Thrax/the Red Death a terrible blight as he wants the same reputation the Pestilence has in 049's mind.
• He is most intrigued by the assassin Hit for his ability to inflict the Touch of Death, albeit with a different method; weaponizing pressure points. The Hokuto Shinken is another Touch of Death he wishes to understand. Kenshiro would prefer he doesn't and is upset at all the damage he causes, but he does recognize that SCP-049 is mad, not evil. And he's not Obliviously Evil in the way Shou Tucker is, since Tucker simply wants to deny moral responsibility. The Plague Doctor agrees with Kenshiro that Tucker is as inept a doctor as he is a father and was satisfied witnessing Kenshiro 'mercing the disgraced alchemist.
• There's a canon where Death was killed and he became depressed he was truly unable to cure the Pestilence. This was far from the worst thing as deathlessness doesn't mean Healing Factor, resulting in a lot of unpleasantness. He rightly considers the Cancerverse and Shuma-Gorath an abomination that if not somehow the source of the Pestilence, serves as its greatest asset. He respects Ai Astin for her role in her world's own Omega-K Scenario. She doesn't trust him at all. He isn't trusted to enter the Undead and Phasmata either despite his fascination, given 049-2. At the very least he regards them as free of the Pestilence.
• ->"Do not be afraid; I am the cure."

Alrighty then, i just messaged Necromancer on several questions relating to the Pantheon restructure, here are the results.

Thoughts? Suggestions? Etc?

These myriad brothels and the girls who work there, succu-girls, are reviewed by a group of brave adventurers! They are...the Interspecies Reviewers!
• Due to the Hotter and Sexier nature of the anime when compared to its original source material, the series during the season it was broadcast outright dropped early in its run for its very risqué presentation all over the world, with large and well-known distributors removing it from the broadcasting schedule. However, all of this controversy of this over the nature of this series had led to the Streisand Effect coming into full effect and making the series more popular than it could have ever been without its cancelation, leading to the Courts of the Gods seeing what all of this fuzz was all and about, and after being informed of the situation at hand, it was decided that this was the perfect opportunity to fill in one of the more broad positions in the Pantheon.
• One day, an unfamiliar figure in strange robes gave Stunk, Zel, and Crim an invitation with instructions before disappearing without a trace. Thinking that this was an invite to a new brothel in town, the trio followed the instructions to the letter, but instead of a new brothel, found themselves in the Pantheon, having officially ascended as Gods.

Say, with all the GUAs being revamped, what will this mean for my work on the Advance Wars COs?

Hmm, who else would make use of these Disks?

Kanoka Disks

• Potential Place: The Armory
• Appearance: Discii with symbols representing areas in Metru Nui
• Class Level: 5, 4 with enough of them
• s:

• Alignment: Depends on its user
• Museum Check: Granted, with restrictions
• Portfolio: Deadly Disc, One Of Many Substitutes For Firearms In The Setting, Various Powers (Freeze, Remove Poison, Shrink, Enlarge, Teleport, Regenerate (inorganics only), Weaken, Reconstitute At Random), Can Be Forged Into Kanohi
• Domains: Disks, Powers, Weapons, Craft
• Common Users: most Toa, but mainly Vakama, The Vahki (formerly)
• Kanoka Disks are tools imbued with powers that are used for protection, technology, and combat by many inhabitants of the Matoran Universe. The technology to develop these disks was invented more than 7,000 years ago in Metru Nui's Ko-Metru Knowledge Towers. Kanoka, named after the Matoran word for "disk," are made from purified Liquid Protodermis, and contain different powers depending on the properties and purity of the Protodermis (what almost everything in the Matoran Universe is made out of) that is used. Kanoka were forged in all areas of the city and were available at central reserve areas or from various traders. They were also made into Kanohi on Metru Nui by Ta-Matoran Mask Makers.
• Kanoka have 3 digits "printed" on them. The first digit determines its properties while launched (the usual way of using these disks, though throwing them or striking with them in melee is also possible), and represents the Metru in which the Disk was made. The second digit determines its effect upon collision with its target (see further below). The third digit determines the potency of this power, as well as its amount of uses before it loses its power and becomes an ordinary disc.
• Kanoka can also be forged into Kanohi Masks, though only those made from Kanoka of Power Level 7 or 8 will have powers. Any Kanohi made from Kanoka of Powers Level 6 or lower lose their power and their only use is to keep Matoran able and functional. There are also Level 9 Kanoka, but only six ever existed, and they have since been fused and forged into the Mask of Time.
• In terms of how the Kanoka came to be in the Pantheon, a special "dispenser" of sorts just showed up in the Treasury one day. As one manager of the Treasury, Whenua was the first to experiment with the device. Upon it ejecting a familiar Disk, he was shocked, and let the rest of the staff and the other Turaga know.
• After discerning everything that could be known about the dispenser, it was decided to make it available for everybody's use (under restrictions, of course), given that the traditional method of creation is no longer available after Mata Nui's passing in the mortal realm. For reasons pertaining to funding the Treasury, and because they shouldn't come cheap, it's decided that anybody who wants a Kanoka has to pay a considerable fee to "roll" for one random Disk per day, and this "dispenser" will be closed off from use after a set number of customers have been "served". All Toa get a discount (but only one Kanoka like everyone else), while Vakama gets an additional disk for free on top of his discounted Disk.
  • That said, the "dispenser" only deposits up to Power Level 7, the level in which they can be forged into Noble Masks used by Turaga. Level 8 can be made into Great Masks as used by Toa, and are thus deemed too powerful, even with the low odds. And the Level 9 Disks restriction has already been explained.
• As for Kanohi forging, having been a mask-maker, Vakama is the one to approach for such things. However, he's instructed to only accept Level 7 disks, since those lower will be powerless, and there are easier ways to get masks like that without wasting Kanoka. He can also provide a guide as to what Kanoka to fuse to get certain desired Kanohi.
• Kanoka have their uses even without being made into Kanohi. In terms of their powers in detail, they are as follows.
  • The first digit determines its properties while launched. They are as follows:
    • 1XX: These Kanoka are stronger, and can knock obstacles out of the way. As for how it determines what's an obstacle and what's its target, it depends on its user's thoughts.
    • 2XX: These Kanoka can change direction in mid-air according to the user's thoughts.
    • 3XX: These Kanoka home in on other Kanoka and deflect them from their course while on its way to its target.
    • 4XX: These Kanoka dodge obstacles to get to its target. As for how it determines what's an obstacle and what's its target, it depends on its user's thoughts.
    • 5XX: These Kanoka can fly farther than the average Kanoka in proportion to launch velocity.
    • 6XX: These Kanoka return to thrower if diverted from course by any means.
  • The second digit determines its powers upon contact with its target. With the exception of 4, 7, 8, and maybe 2, all effects are temporary. They are as follows:
    • X1X: Reconstitute at Random - Temporarily scrambles the molecules of a target, resulting in a new and unpredictable shape. The scope of the change is tied to the power level of the disk. Can affect both living and non-living targets.
    • X2X: Freeze - Covers a target in a thick coating of solid ice.
    • X3X: Weaken - Reduces the strength of a living or nonliving target. Can be used to bring down structures. The intensity and duration of the effect is tied to the power level of the disk.
    • X4X: Remove Poison - Cures the effects of toxic substances (such as poison or venom) by erasing their presence in a target. Its possible effects on those with poison powers is yet to be determined.
    • X5X: Enlarge - Temporarily causes a target to grow rapidly. Size is tied to the power level of the disk, with a maximum of sixty feet for any target.
    • X6X: Shrink - Temporarily causes a target to reduce in size rapidly. Size is tied to the power level of the disk, with a minimum of six inches for any target.
    • X7X: Regenerate - Repairs a structure or piece of equipment to its original completed state no matter how much time has passed. Does not work on living targets and will do nothing against them apart from the pain of getting hit by the Kanoka. The extent of damage that can be repaired is tied to the power level of the disk.
    • X8X: Teleport - Causes a target to teleport at a random location. Range of teleportation is tied to the power level of the disk. Works on stasis fields as well. Teleportation direction of the target is determined by the user's thoughts.
  • The third digit represents the Power Level of the disk in question, ranging from 1 to 8. There were six that are Power Level 9, but they've since been used up.
• Kanoka can be fused to make other kinds with different powers, such as Increase Weight, Levitation, Speed, and Flight, all of which are usually incorporated into transports. More potential Kanoka can be found here, and by extension, these can be crafted into their respective Kanohi.
  • In case you're wondering how a Kanoka of Speed, Telekinesis, Water Breathing, and the like would work, striking oneself hard enough with it will do the trick and grant its user that power for a while.
• There are plenty of questions as to how Kanoka work. Plenty of them are answered here.
  • Regeneration Kanoka don't require all the pieces of a broken item to restore it. In fact, you can get multiple instances of that item by tapping each piece with the Kanoka, making it ideal for mass production if you know what you're doing.
  • Regeneration Kanoka cannot "recharge" another Kanoka.
  • One can merge as many Kanoka as one wants. However, no one in the Matoran race has ever merged Kanoka of differing Power Levels (e.g. a 7 and a 5).
  • Running electrical currents through Kanoka is theoretically possible. As for whether or not currents can activate them is unknown still.
  • Getting hit by a Reconstitute at Random Kanoka isn't any more painful than Star Trek transporters are (apart from the Kanoka colliding onto you).
  • If a Regeneration Kanoka is used on a building that has been demolished, rebuilt, then smashed, it will restore the building into its largest form. If the building was built, remodeled, then smashed, the Kanoka will restore the building to its latest form.
• Due to how few Ta-Metru Mask Makers were in existence, there wasn't exactly a "Research and Development Department" equivalent in Metru Nui. Now that Kanoka are in the Pantheon, there is an R&D now somewhere in the House of Knowledge, though given Level 7 Kanoka are still rare because the dispenser doesn't give them out often enough, and since not all who are lucky enough to receive such are willing to part with them, progress is slow.
• Besides being used as weapons, Freeze Disks have also been utilized by a few food industries when something needs freezing pronto. Weaken Disks prove helpful with demolition of decrepit buildings, and rocks that need clearing out. Given Levitation, Increase Weight, Flight, and Speed Disks have been used for transports on Metru Nui, similar methods are being used in the Pantheon, though aren't wholly reliant on them given how few Disks are available for use.
  • Even "depleted" Disks still have potential uses as raw materials, and analyses are currently being performed to replicate the process. Maybe they can't replicate the power, but protodermis is still of value.

• While searching for candidates for Journey to the Center of the Mind, the Court decided that, while waiting for the sequel, they would bring up the Psychonaut cadet Razputin Aquato to the Pantheon for his achievements at Whispering Rock Psychic Summer Camp. For his part, Raz is curious to see what the Pantheon has to offer.
  • Eventually, he had to go "back" once his story was ready. Once everything there was over and done with, Raz returned to the Pantheon, better than ever, as a full-fledged (Junior) Psychonaut. Though he did forget a few abilities he had from before, but that was easily remedied.
• In terms of what his temple looks like, it takes the form of his bunk at Whispering Rock Summer Camp during his first adventure.
• Raz does his work by using a Psycho-Portal that puts Raz and whoever he uses the portal on into a trance while he does what he does inside the target's mind. Due to built-in blocks, he cannot use the Psycho-Portal on anybody younger than 18 years old. It's also blocked by shower heads (and maybe other head-covering implements), those with "mental blocks" set against invasive psychic devices, and those who can remove the Psycho-Portal with their own powers. As far as he knows, only psychics can enter minds through Psycho-Portal, and has not tested if he can take a non-psychic with him given he has very little non-psychic allies (besides perhaps some of his family, who were slow to approve of his psychic powers).
• As someone gifted with psychic powers, Raz was quick to make friends with the friendly kind such as Jean Grey, Professor X, J'onn the Martian Manhunter, Ness, Lucas, and most Psychics from the Pokémon world, both 'Mons and humans alike (though he was slower to warm up to Sabrina, given the different versions of her). He's currently considering whether or not some of them are trustworthy enough to bring with him through Psycho-Portal to investigate minds if they're not able to access the minds of others already.
  • Two races of the New Alliance of Free Stars have also had Raz under consideration; the Syreen, who all have overall superior psychic talent might have a closer genetic relation to humanity than expected, and the Arilou, who can speak to people telepathically and are basically The Greys.
  • There's also Silver the Hedgehog, who's also psychic, though is limited to telekinesis and levitation (both much more powerful than what any Psychonaut can do) with no real hint towards any telepathy (beyond the now-defunct Archie Comics continuity). That said, Silver is also a time-traveler, and that got Raz's attention give his enthusiasm for all sorts of paranormal stuff. It also helps that they're around the same age (Silver's 14, Raz is 10)
• Having had a terrible past in the circus (at least that's how he rememebered it at first), Raz opposes the likes of Tökkentäkker, Needles Kane, and Circus Baby.
• Due to his Gypsy Curse, Raz stays away from all bodies of water that he can be immersed in, and therefore all deities who live beneath it. How bad is the gypsy curse on him? Even figurative depictions of water (such as cardboard waves) can hurt him. Also, when ever Raz enters water deeper than a few inches, a supernatural liquid hand called the Hand of Galochio attempts to grab him and pull him beneath the surface. Whether Raz has created a psychic placebo (i.e. his fears make the hand come to life), or there really is an external curse is still being determined. And if it is the latter, there are those wondering if that curse would go away if he gets killed at least once in the Pantheon. When that happened (his first death in the Pantheon), it's implied to be the former.
  • As it turns out, it's actually sort of both, for the Hand of Galochio was created by Ford Cruller as a result of him implanting a strong fear of water in Lucrecia Mux/Maligula/Nona Aquato's mind to stop her from reawakening her hydrokinesis. This fear had then been passed to Augustus, and from him to all the Aquato children, including Raz. Once it was understood that there is no curse, the Hand is no longer hostile, Raz is able to tread water safely with the Hand's help, and it will even rescue him if he thinks he's in danger from drowning by pulling him to someplace dry. Given his great-aunt was actually Maligula, it's likely that he has inherent hydrokinetic potential as well.
• As someone who can change the opinions of people just by going into their heads, so to speak, he's drawn the attention of the Inception crew and the Phantom Thieves of Hearts. And his friendship with the latter eventually got him attention from the Investigation Team as well, whose members have had their issues mostly mended through their trips to the TV World.
  • He has more cordial relations with Ren's crew, especially with Futaba Sakura, whose initial situation needed a change of heart from inside just like with some of the folks Raz helped. As long as he promises to follow their lead and not kill main Palace Shadows, he can join the crew in their Heists there. Unfortunately, the reverse cannot ocurr, as the Psycho-Portal only works between target and Psychonaut, and it's not known what might happen if he and the Phantoms target the same person with their separate methods and what effects there can be on the Mental Worlds Raz travels to and the Metaverse the Phantoms navigate in.
  • At least, that was how it worked at first. After a couple of cooperative missions where they end up investigating the same target, holes in the Palaces have been sighted that lead into places different yet similar to them. And then when Raz was sighted there, it's turns out that there is a way to enter Mental Worlds after all; through these holes. However, it's not known what would happen to the Phantoms if they're still in these worlds if Raz ends up leaving (either by way of Smelling Salts (which merely instantly awaken its user from sleep in the case of the Phantoms), his projection getting "killed", or otherwise being forced out), so caution is advised.
  • As of his second adventure, he came back to meet the new additions Violet, SOPHIE, and Wolf, and was amused to see an officer as part of the crew, given that the Psychonauts in part do what the Phantoms do, but as an official organization. He's also since become a lot more cautious when it comes to meddling with minds, ever since the disaster with Agent Forsythe Hollins when his attempt to turn her from a safety-freak into someone more tolerant of sending him and his fellow interns to a mission turned her into a gambling addict. He managed to fix that, but still got a scolding for it and he realized his mistake.
    • When he inquired with the Phantoms about that, given their own modus operandi, he was given a talk on the targets they changed the hearts of; all of them were despicable folks who have a lot of people suffering under their heels, and were untouchable by the law in some form or other. There was literally no one who could/would stop them save the Phantom Thieves. This left Raz at odds with himself since technically speaking their agenda run at odds with Psychonauts rules and the responsibility that comes with their powers.
    • Because of that, Raz loathes Akechi for his acts of murder in the Metaverse, cursing the fact that he's only 17, thus preventing Raz from using the Psycho-Portal on him. He only tolerates the detective because Ren vouches for him and because Akechi's past was full of messed up stuff.
    • In regards to Prince Gristol, Ren stated that he was the kind of scum the Phantoms would go after. But they won't not only out of respect to Raz, but because he's already technically apprehended by the law in the end.
    • As for Dr. Takuto Maruki, Raz has made his opposition on the ex-psychologist's former plans for his ideal world clear. Maruki knows there are parties interested in awakening that side of him that wants to pursue that ideal again and has offered Raz access to his mind so as to help prevent that from happening again (plus helping the Psychonaut understand him more). And because of what Maruki has done, Raz is particularly sympathetic towards Sumire since her mind was altered by him, even if it did stave her off from depression and inevitable suicide before Ren came to her life and mended her for real.
• Having had terrible experiences with them, he doesn't like mad doctors and other folks who mess with minds. Particulars he don't like are Dr. Zomboss (who wishes to eat brains, and so do his brethren) and Arael (whose modus operandi is Mind Rape, especially after hearing what it did to Asuka). There are also the malicious psychics such as Alma Wade, Magnus the Red, and Typhus.
• Like any sane person, Bill Cipher is also an enemy due to his ability to appear to people in their dreams to make deals, his expertise at manipulation, and his agenda for Weirdmageddon.
• Alice swore she once saw his skeleton in (Dark) Wonderland. Raz has no plans on visiting Wonderland anytime soon as a result and hopes that wasn't him in the future.
• According to his old myspace account, Raz is a Capricorn. He also doesn't like bees or cilantro, but is not afraid of them. Additionally, he has no issues against gay couples, having encountered one among the Psychic Six/Seven in Bob Zanotto and Helmut Fullbear.
• In terms of people who have had villains hidden in their family just like him, the closest would be Sasuke Uchiha, whose ancestor Madara drove Itachi to kill members of his own clan. And in some continuities, this also applies to Tony Stark (his biological father turns out to have been a member of HYDRA) and Spider-Woman (her parents are also HYDRA agents). Raz gets along with the superheroes, while he's wary of the Last Uchiha.
• Raz took an interest in Ned Needlemeyer when he found out about his chronic nightmares, and the nightmare-plagued boy couldn't be more welcoming a chance to be cured of his bad dreams. That said, Ned's unfortunately too young for the Psycho-Portal to work on him, so Raz decided he would need some help and contacted the Phantom Thieves of Hearts. One Meta-Nav scan later revealed that Ned indeed had a Palace, and soon they and Raz went in.
  • Unfortunately, things there proved a tad more difficult than anticipated. While not exactly as hard as Shido's Palace, Ned's came with multiple obstructions that required going outside regularly to consult him. Due to what happened last time someone entered their own Palace (Futaba), Ned cannot come along this time, and bringing Fuuka might be needed for cross-dimensional contact. While the Phantoms were now personally dedicated to helping Ned now, Raz insisted on coming with on this venture; he had promised to help him, no matter how long it took, and Ned was forever grateful to them all.

So, here is my strategy going forward. First, I'm going to start Koro-Sensei's profile from scratch, then revise Class 3-E based on the updates that have occurred as I refamiliarize myself with the Pantheon. For now, I'll use both Color-Coded Emotions and Excuse Me While I Multitask as a dual-hold.

Before I begin preliminary work, is his old profile still buried in any archives or shall I start him over from scratch?

Don’t the Emotional Entities from DC have Color-Coded Emotions?

Correct. Excuse Me While I Multitask isn't taken, so Koro-sensei can have that as a solo trope.

Will do, thank you both for the clarifications.

for Raz.

Also, hello, people, it's been a long time, since I was preoccupied with other things for a while. So here's a long overdue new version of Merlina. Feedback is more than appreciated.

As a reminder, she's the wizard granddaughter of Merlin who, having seen the end of King Arthur's kingdom, tried to make it eternal by having it been swallowed by darkness, then ended up learning the importance of things ending and the error of her ways.

Merlina the Wizard, Goddess of Comparatively Innocent Villainesses (The Dark Queen, Queen of The Underworld)

^{As the Dark Queen} 

^{The Dark Queen's battle form} 

• Theme Song: With Me
• Lesser Goddess (Greater Goddess as The Dark Queen)
• Symbol: A picked flower
• Alignment: Neutral Good, used to be Lawful Evil
• Portfolio: Villainess that's less evil than male villains, Cast herself as Sonic's ally at first, Had good intentions behind her actions, Once saw no value in mortal life, Sought to make the kingdom eternal at all cost, Saw the error of her way after her defeat, Always remain calm
• Domains: Villainy, Intentions, Desperation, Magic
• High Priestess: Aversa
• Special Relationship: Merlin (Her grandfather)
• Allies: Sonic The Hedgehog, and other heroic deities from his world, King Arthur Pendragon, Artoria Pendragon, Lancelot du Lac, Gawain, Galahad, Mash Kyrielight, Casshern
• Enemies: All villainous Sonic deities, especially Erazor Djinn, Morgan Le Fay, Both Mordreds, The Grand United Alliance of Destruction, Yhwach
• Teeth-Clenched Teamwork with: Artoria Pendragon Alter
• Pities: Davoth, Luna
• There are many variations of the Arthurian Legend. In one odd variation, King Arthur was but a construct created by Merlin for the sake of ruling the kingdom, and one who ended up being corrupted by the scabbard of Excalibur into a tyrant terrorizing his people with demonic creatures. But perhaps an even bigger divergence was the fact that Merlin had a grandaughter named Merlina, who inherited the position of court mage. When said girl learned that the kingdom was part of a story destined to end by its fall, she fell into despair. And so she sought to steal the Scabbard and extend its power of immortality over the whole land to make it eternal at the cost of casting it into eternal darkness. To do so, she summoned Sonic the Hedgehog from another world to defeat King Arthur. What she didn't count was the heroic speedster turning on her and stopping her plan. But after beating her, Sonic made her realize that everything will end someday, but that you should enjoy those days to the fullest.
• The Merlin of the Pantheon, who is a composite of all of his incarnations in the multiverse couldn't help but feel sorry that his granddaughter had fallen into such sorrow and was glad to see that she understood the error in her ways. Yet as he watched over Sonic's adventures, he noticed that not only was she one main antagonist of the heroic hedgehog's tales who was female, but that unlike a great majority of them, she had genuinely good intentions instead of a base lust for power. And so, he proposed to the Court that she be brought in as the representative of Comparatively Innocent Villainesses, which was accepted.
  • Merlina was surprised to see Sonic coming back to her world to lead her to a place called the 'Pantheon'. Upon arriving there, she was even more shocked to see her grandfather and promptly began to deeply apologize for her actions. But instead of berating or punishing her, the Enchanter gave her a reassuring pat on the back as he told her he knew she only wanted to save the kingdom. After which, she accepted her new title as a reminder of her misdeeds, and swore to atone for them by working alongside her grandfather.
• Sonic himself was quite happy to work with her again in the Pantheon despite her previous manipulations, as he's not the type to hold grudges and it helps that she previously helped him and his friends. She was rather surprised to learn that several of his friends were similar to her version of the Knights of the Table Round and Lady Nimue, but this hasn't put a damper on her relationships with them. Though she can't help but be surprised by the differences between counterparts, especially with Amy Rose's flightiness compared to the lady of the lake.
  • Naturally, this bond led to her making enemies with many of Sonic's foes. But the one case where this really goes personal is with Erazor Djinn, another inhabitant of a story who sought the power to rule it, though unlike her he did it for purely selfish reasons. And so, she has sworn that she would stand in the way of his plans to control all stories.
• She was more than shocked to learn that there were not one, but two 'real' versions of King Arthur in the Pantheon, especially since one of them, Artoria, is a woman. Upon meeting both in person, she once again bowed to apologize for her actions towards the kingdom of Britain. However, they quickly forgave her, as they realized she wanted to save her homeland just as they sacrificed everything to protect it. Especially since Artoria herself went off the deep end trying to make Camelot eternal in an alternate timeline. As such, they more than glad to welcome her in their services. By contrast, she highly disturbed by Saber Alter, as her Artoria's corrupted self remind her of the tyrant her grandfather's creation became, though she has been much less evil ever since joining Chaldea. For her part, she doesn't appreciate being judged by "a foolish girl who nearly cast Camelot into darkness".
  • Naturally, returning under Arthur's service means she has been working with Knights of the Round Table, who don't hold her past against her. At first, she was deeply uncomfortable with Lancelot, as she knew that his affair with the queen was the first step to Britain's ruin. However, he soon approached her that she was entirely right to admonish him for his mistake, but that he was working to atone for them just like she was. Ever since then, they have been working better together.
  • By contrast, she despites either versions of Mordred and Morgan the Fay for being the direct cause of the fall of Camelot, and having it done quite deliberately. Naturally, she has sworn that she wouldn't allow them to continue their wickedness in the Pantheon. Morgan just scoffed at her, saying that she had no room to lecture her after she tried to usurp control of Britain for herself. While the comparison disturbed Merlina, she holds that unlike her, Morgan only ever thought of herself.
  • She was surprised to learn that one version of Galahad inhabited the body of a young girl named Mash Kyrielight who works for Chaldea, an organization that protect humanity. The mage has proposed to help with that mission, though she was very disturbed to hear about a Camelot in an alternate timeline which indeed stood eternal, but at the cost of Artoria becoming a tyrannical goddess far worse than even the Black Knight.
• While she has developped beyond her obsession of making her kingdom eternal, she still vehemently oppose anyone who would try to hasten demise of people and worlds. So naturally, she despise the Grand Alliance led by Nekron, and amongst them, Dhuum is hellbent on punishing her for having once tried to get rid of the concept of death. Tough she can't help but be uneasy towards even more benevolent embodiment of death such as Death of the Endless.
• She was surprised to learn of other people who sought to make their worlds eternal, such as the fallen god Davoth, who sought to bring immortality to his creations out of a fear of being alone. Tough she heavily sympathizes with his motivation, his dark powers along with his army of demonic monsters can't help but disturb her as it remind her of her time as the Dark Queen. He himself is disapointed that she gave up on such a laudable goal, tough he's also interested in potentially claiming the Scabbard of Excalibur for his own goals.
  • Another being she holds in a similar view is the mysterious woman known as Luna, who had become disgusted with the concept of death and sought to get rid of it, even if it was at the cost of people's humanity. She too wishes Luna could see the error in her actions, while the latter is disapointed that the mage no longer has the mindset to help her on her quest to make an eternal world. She also has met with the android Casshern, who had also learned the importance of things ending someday. He has been doing his best to help Merlina cope
  • On the other hand, she has nothing but disgust for Yhwach. While he too want to remove the concept of death by fusing the mortal world and the afterlife, the way he treats the lives of both his enemies and his subordinates make it clear he only thinks of himself, and his motivation is the fear of losing his life. She is hellbent that the Scabbard should never end in the hands of a tyrant like him.

She’d despise the Heartless for actually being the ones to destroy Camelot. She’ll also get on Excalbur’s bad side for using his scabbard as part of his plans.

In addition, there is another individual going by the name of her Grandfather in the Pantheon, that being the Boar’s Sin of Gluttony. And some may think she inherited her Grandfather’s condition.

Here's the draft for Creepers. They're strange, green creatures that sneak up on players and blow themselves up, and are some of the most popular characters in Minecraft.

So are there other creatures/enemies that blow themselves up?

Creepers, Divine Suicide Attackers (Penis Monsters, Exploding Dicks, Boomers, Exploding Hedges, Kamikaze Shrubs, Green Terrorists)

^{Charged Creeper} 

• Demideities
• Symbol: Their own face (Shared with Minecraft itself)
• Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
• Portfolio: Living Explosives, Made of Explodium, Implied To Be A Plant Creature, Feared By Players, Can One-Shot The Player, Stealth Expert, The Mascot Of Minecraft, Powered Up By Lightning
• Domains: Explosions, Destruction, Stealth, Plants(?)
• Allies: Zombies, Endermen, Herobrine, The Bob-ombs, Bomberman, Micheal Bay, The Soldier and Demoman, Kuribohs
• Enemies: Steve And Alex, VanossGaming And Friends
• Admires: The Wither
• Fears: The House Of Felines
• Arguably the most recognized mob in Minecraft, Creepers are a race of vaguely plant-like creatures who exist only to make the player's life more miserable. One of the few hostile mobs that can survive in daylight, Creepers are notorious for sneaking up on unsuspecting players and suddenly blowing themselves up, taking out both the player and anything around them (usually their house). While they're relativley simple to deal with if one knows that its coming, the fact that they make zero noises when moving around, combined with just how powerful their explosion is, makes them one of the most consistantly feared mobs in the game.
• Nobody's quite sure how the Creepers managed to sneak into the Pantheon in the first place. All thats known is that they started spawning one day and began blowing up numerous unsuspecting gods by the dozen. Thankfully, Steve quickly found out about their arrival and joined with a bunch of other gods to round up every Creeper they could find into one big temple. Unfortunatley for the miner, a short while later the green menaces were approved for properly ascending to the pantheon, taking the title of Suicide Attack thanks to their infamous method of attacking. Ever since then, Creepers would regularly escape their prison, free to cause more explosive mayhem.

Creeper, Aw man

In all seriousness though, possible victims of Suicide Attacks might not react well to them

XANA has a monster known as the Creeper, albeit known as Rampart in the original French. Very different from the Minecraft version, but might be worth pointing out.

Alrighty then, I think I am done with Tinker Bell's rework. Hope this turns out well. If there's anything else that's needed, please let me know.

Tinker Bell, Goddess of Companion Fairies (Tink, Miss Bell, Little-Miss-Spare-Parts)

• When the first baby laughed for the first time, their laugh broke into a million pieces, and they all went skipping about. That was the beginning of fairies. Ever since, whenever a child lets out their first laugh, the newborn fairies are spirited to the faraway Neverland, where they are given their chosen role. One particular fairy took upon a rather unique position as a tinker, mending pots and kettles for her fellow fairies. In fact, it was this profession that earned this fairy her name. Tinker Bell. Tink is a rather fascinating individual; she can go from kind and loyal to feisty, sad, angry and even jealous of others. But Tink is known more than just for her metalwork or emotion swings. She is the closest friend and ally to Peter Pan, the immortal flying boy, and are often seen together while exploring Neverland and partaking in various adventures. Mostly involving pirates. One night, Peter and tink visited a nursery in London, England to recover the former's shadow. There, the pair met three young children; Wendy, John and Michael Darling. The three were fans of Peter Pan and after helping him reunite with his shadow, Pan offered to take them to Neverland where they never had to grow up. This... proved to be a problem for Tink. Turns out she became extremely jealous of Wendy's attraction, so jealous in fact that the little fairy tricked the Lost Boys into shooting down the "Wendy-Bird" when she first came to Neverland. The plan failed and Tink was banished as a result. Jilted from being banished, Tink teamed up with Pan's nemesis, Captain James Hook, who offered to get rid of Wendy in exchange for leaving Peter be. Of course, it was all a trick. Tink was captured and Hook left a little something to kill Pan.^note Whether it was poison or a bomb depends on the timeline. But Tink quickly escaped and sacrificed her life for Peter. Peter managed to save Tink - with a little outside help - and together they rescued the Darling children and the Lost Boys from Hook's pirates. With her jealousy gone, Peter and Tink took the Darlings back to London, returning home themselves via a flying pirate ship. Occasionally, the pair fly back to England to visit Wendy and take her children on new adventures in Neverland.
• Tink arrived in the Pantheon at the same time as Peter Pan and the Lost Boys. It all started on a sunny day in Neverland. Peter and the Lost Boys had set off in search of pirates to fight, with Tink tagging along as well. They found pirates... just not the ones they were expecting. Instead of Hook, they stumbled upon a bizarre band of misfits, unlike anything they had ever seen. But pirates are pirates, and the kids were ready for some fun and games. The two groups duked it out aboard the pirate ship, with Peter contending with the "Straw Hat" wearing captain. Tink meanwhile used her signature pixie dust to send the pointy-nosed slingshot sniper and the tiny reindeer floating into the air before plopping them into the ocean.^note  Fear not, Usopp helped Chopper out of the water. When she returned to the ship, Peter and the Straw Hat captain, Monkey D. Luffy, ended their bout in a friendly draw. Impressed, Peter asked why Luffy's crew came to Neverland and if they were familiar with Captain Hook. Luffy looked at the boy with confusion and explained they weren't in Neverland, but rather a place known only as "The Pantheon." Tink was just as confused as Peter but both quickly realized that the Pantheon had much more to offer in terms of games and fun. For Tink, there was the added bonus of more fairies to meet. Not to mention plenty of pots and kettles she could fix. She, Peter and the Lost Boys quickly took to meeting the Higher Gods, who gave the flying boy and fairy godly titles; Tink, in particular, receiving Fairy Companion due to being Peter's main ally and being one of the first examples of one in the Multiverse. Now a part-time resident, Tinker Bell has found herself a very busy fairy, not that she's complaining.
• Much like Peter Pan, Tinker Bell has a temple in the Pantheon but chooses not to visit it. Instead, she travels back and forth from Neverland with Peter in the same way they always do. Second star to the right and straight on till morning. When she does visit her temple it leads to a place very few ever visit. Pixie Hollow, also known as Fairy Haven, is located north of Neverland and is a place where all four seasons coexist in harmony. It is the home of Neverland's fairies, and it is where Tink reunited with her close friends and companions. There's Fawn, a tomboyish animal fairy, perky and energetic light fairy Iridessa, sweet and caring water fairy Silvermist, Rosetta, a well-mannered garden fairy, the fast-flying Vidia, who was an old rival with Tink, and Terence, a dust-keeper sparrow man who has a crush on Tinker Bell. Not that she ever notices. The gang will sometimes travel to the Pantheon to have their own adventures with Tink, usually whenever Peter isn't around. when he does pop by, Tink's friends playfully tease her about their friendship. It's all in good fun but it also drives her nuts, flying around trying to catch them, much to Peter's amusement.
• Most who first see Tinker Bell will probably see her as a glowing ball of light, the colour changing with her emotional state. But like so many other deities in the Pantheon, Tink's appearance will change depending on the universe or timeline she was previously in. She's most commonly seen with blond hair and wearing a green dress; as seen in the Disney and 2003 timelines. On other occasions, she will appear as a talkative Redhead - sometimes with pink hair in rare cases - and on the rarest of instances, Tink is seen with bird-like wings or as a silver-bodied pixie with cosmically-imbued powers. Her strangest appearances are actually when she's not small. In fact, in Magical Lands timeline, Tink was changed into a human as punishment for stealing pixie dust to help others in need. Regardless of how she appears, she's always there for Peter Pan no matter what.
• As soon as she arrived in the Pantheon, Tinker Bell began seeking out other fairies or members of The Fair Folk. Her first fairy encounter was with the tooth fairy Toothiana, the two crossing paths when Toothiana to collect teeth from the Lost Boys. Tink initially found Toothiana's hummingbird-like assistants a bit annoying, but both fairies came to respect each other, with the latter welcoming Peter and Tink to visit her palace. The tiny AI program Yui was another fairy Tink befriended following her ascension, offering her some tea while hanging out. During one of their meetings, Tink came across a strange creature known only as Puck. Tink and Yui followed Puck into the forest, eventually ending up in the domain of the king and queen of the fairies, Oberon and Titania. They were initially dismissive of Tinker Bell, which set off the little fairy, resulting in her using her Pixie Dust on Puck to make him fly. Impressed by this, and somewhat amused, Oberon and Titania changed their tone. They welcomed Tink and Yui in their kingdom whenever the pair ever want to visit, even providing assistance to Neverland should dangerous threats befall the island.
• Another batch of fairies Tink befriended were Cosmo and Wanda, two fairy godparents belonging to young human Timmy Turner. The pair find Tink rather interesting, due to her knack for fixing objects and using pixie dust to make people fly. Timmy Turner was surprised to see such a tiny fairy and was quick to warn her about Denzel Crocker, a crazed man with a desire to capture and expose fairies to the world, and the monotone Head Pixie, who wishes to make Neverland part of his bureaucratic empire. Timmy also, very wisely, agreed with his godparents to never mention Tinklebell around Tink, lest they face her fury.
  • One day, Tink decided to take a nap on what she thought was a bare branch lined with gems. She quickly learned it was no branch. It was an antler, belonging to a massive deer-like creature garbed with brilliant blue. It was the Legendary Pokémon Xerneas, and after realizing her mistake Tink took an immediate liking to it, citing that the Pokémon "felt familiar". Often times she can be found still lounging on one of Xerneas' antlers whenever hanging out with her fellow fairies. Xerneas doesn't mind and will sometimes travel to Neverland to rest from the chaos of the Pantheon.
• But not everyone in the Pantheon gets along with Tinker Bell. She had to contend with several fairies that are, to put it bluntly, more antagonistic towards her and others around them. One was the Fairy Godmother of Far Far Away, who wished to use Neverland's pixie dust to supply her factory and get revenge on the ogre Shrek. Tink's not willing to share and sees the Fairy Godmother as an insult to all the fair folk. The same applies to the alien lifeform known as Killer BOB, who planned on wiping out Neverland once he was done with Twin Peaks. The Cryst-fairy Airy also rubbed Tink and Peter the wrong way, with the latter being particularly disturbed that a supposedly helpful figure was really stringing her homeworld "allies" all along to aid in her evil plan. She once tried to kill Tink with a Zetta Flare, but the former was quick enough to evade... only for the attack to decimate Hook's ship. Ever since the Neverland duo keep their distance.
  • But the one Tinker Bell fears the most is Maleficent. The Mistress of All Evil decided to attack Pixie Hollow hoping to spread her dark influence over the land, as well as destroy it with her Heartless forces. Tink and her friends did their best to hold off Maleficent, but she proved to be too much for them. It was only with the arrival of the three good fairies - Flora, Fauna and Merryweather - did they drive the dark fairy away from Neverland. While thankful, Tink's mood swings made it difficult for Flora and Fauna to talk with her. Not so much with with Merryweather, who gets along with Ms. Bell the most.
• Due to her small size, Tinker Bell isn't considered much of a threat to larger deities. But this size difference, combined with her access to pixie dust and manipulative nature, has made Tink deceptively dangerous even by fairy standards. After all, She's not above convincing the unsuspecting Lost Boys to shoot those she considers her rivals just like she did with Wendy and her negative nature can overwhelm her at times. There is a fascinating reason for it; Neverland fairies are so small they only experience one emotion at a time.
• If there's one thing Tinker Bell likes to do - besides fixing things and hanging out with Peter Pan - it's messing with Captain Hook and his pirates. Her history with Hook goes a long way back, and anytime she gets the chance to fight the crew of the Jolly Roger she relishes it. But while Peter was thrilled to discover the Pantheon was filled to the brim with pirates, Tink was a little warier. Sure she could deal with Hook himself, Kaptain K. Rool, and Yosemite Sam by having Tick-Tock the crocodile chase them off, there are other pirates that have proven to be more dangerous. Euron Greyjoy, King of the Iron Islands, heard rumours of Neverland's Pixie Dust and desired to use it in his quest to conqueror Westeros while destroying the island in the process. There was also Risky Boots, who also wanted the pixie dust for herself and actually launched an invasion to take Pixie Hollow by force. Tink and Peter Pan worked together with Shantae to drive off Risky and since then, they've had the half-genie hero in speed-dial.
  • There have been a few times where Tinker Bell has travelled or worked with pirates, much to her chagrin. Aside from the Straw Hats, she and Peter once helped the infamous Captain Jack Sparrow in order to rescue Wendy, her brothers and the Lost Boys from the octopus-faced Davy Jones, all of them nearly getting consumed by the Kraken. Another time, several strange, brightly coloured charms landed in Neverland, with Peter and Hook each collecting them. This attracted six mysterious pirates from beyond the sky, a team known as the Gokaiger. The "charms" Peter and Hook had collected were in fact Ranger Keys, and after explaining the situation, Peter offered to help, seeing an opportunity to humiliate Hook once more. Tink didn't trust the rangers, especially the greedy, yellow-clad Luka Millfy, who poked fun at the tiny fairy when they first met. But that hostility died off when they defeated Hook and returned the remaining Ranger Keys to the Gokaiger. Tink and Luka, while not friends, gained some respect for each other, and sometimes can be seen trying to engage in conversation.
  • Luka did help with one thing. She introduced Tink to some associates of her team. The Mystic Force Power Rangers, masters of magic and defenders of Briarwood Forest. Tink felt a strong connection with the rangers and quickly warmed up to them, but none more so than the wind-based Pink Ranger Vida Rocca. A tomboy by heart, Vida found it amusing that Tink connected with her, considering the former's titan form resembled a sprite in appearance. Both will hang out when Vida is off-duty, sometimes visiting Pixie Hollow to meet the other fairies. They'll even work together to defend Pixie Hollow from any hidiacs that might end up in Neverland.
• Tinker Bell may be a pint-sized powerhouse, but even she has her flaws. She, like every other fairy in Neverland, will die should she be in the presence of someone who doesn't believe in fairies. The only way to resurrect Tink is for people to, simply put, clap their hands and say "I believe in fairies." It works like a charm, but Tink has to be careful around the more cynical Pantheon denizens, especially Professor Membrane who, unlike Denzel Crocker, is a stern skeptic who insists that the fairies of Neverland are only fairy tale fantasies. She doesn't want to go through another near-death experience. To this end, she often seeks out young children, as they are the most likely to believe in creatures such as her, becoming less pronounced over time.
• While using Pixie Dust is her most skilled feat, Tinker Bell is still, well, a tinker at heart. She loves fixing pots, pans and other household utensils. She has even dabbled in fixing strange items that some people called "Pokéballs", made from hard fruit shells. This drew even stranger attention, as a young boy named Ash Ketchum found Tink mending one of these old-fashion spheres. He initially thought she was a Pokémon and was about to catch her... this only pissed her off and after teaching him a harsh lesson, Tink and Peter explained the ins and outs of Neverland life. Ash was intrigued by this and offered to travel to show the pair his homeworld and even meet some friends of his. Things were going pretty well... until Peter met some of Ash's lady friends. Tink wasn't too keen on these girls keeping Pan all to themselves. In her jealousy, she tried to get rid of a few of them, starting with Ash's oldest friend Misty. Unfortunately for Tink, Misty's Psyduck was out and was using Psychic. It didn't end well, let's just say. Regardless, Tink doesn't mind Ash all too much, he's even showed her a variety of Apricorn Pokéballs for her to tinker with and fix.
• There is more to Neverland than just fairies, Lost Boys and pirates. The island is also inhabited by mermaids, native tribes, a variety of wild animals for an intrepid explorer to meet. In the Pantheon, Tinker Bell found herself meeting individuals that reminded her of these inhabitants. The mermaids Ponyo and Ariel reminded Tink of stories Peter had told of Mermaid Lagoon, while Pocahontas of the Powhatan People brought back memories of the fierce Princess Tiger Lily. The three don't mind Tink's presence, with the little fairy respecting all three and sometimes listening to their adventures and stories.
• Some in the Pantheon believed Cirno, a hot-tempered fairy with unique ice powers, would be more suitable as a Goddess of Fairies over Tink. However, Cirno has made no claims for the position and is perfectly happy with the one she currently occupies. Or so it would seem. In reality, Cirno does desire Tink's position, and once even tried to team up with Captain Hook to achieve said goal. Hook betrayed her rather quickly, and just as quickly, Tink and her friends helped Cirno out in beating back the old codfish. Since then, Tink and Cirno reforged their friendship... even if Tink was a little miffed the ice fairy tried to steal her title.
• Tinker Bell found herself becoming acquainted with those who either have respect for the Fair Folk, or were accompanied by fairies from time to time. One example of this is Ghaleon. Though a powerful magician, and eventually revealed to be the Magic Emperor, Ghaleon has a fondness for fairies and pixies, even allowing Tink and her friends to come to his garden should they feel like visiting. She may not be friends with him, but she can respect his compassion towards her kind. But the one who garners the most attention is Hyrule's chosen hero Link, who vaguely resembled Peter Pan with his pointy ears and green tunic. Raised in Kokiri Forest, Link bonded with his own fairy companion Navi, who is often seen as a glowing ball of blue light with wings. Navi quickly befriended Tinker Bell and along with Yui, can sometimes be seen enjoying some tea and talking about their many adventures in their respective worlds. It was also through Navi and Link that Tink gained a strong respect for Princess Zelda, the ruler and protector of Hyrule, and a strong disdain for the vile Ganondorf, who Navi once fought against long ago, as well as the shadowy Dark Link, who often attacks his light counterpart when given the chance. Link also took Peter and Tink to meet an acquaintance of his, a lonely, flute-playing individual known simply as The Skull Kid. The lad had two fairy friends of his own, Tatl and Tael, who took an interest in Tink and together, all four hanged out with Skull Kid, with Peter even making him an honorary Lost Boy. It was for the best, as The Skull Kid was once possessed by Majora's Mask, and nearly caused destroyed Termina in the process. Tinker Bell learned this from Tatl and Tael, and vowed to make sure the mask never possessed either Peter or the Skull Kid, especially after learning of its existence in the Pantheon.
• Of all the gods in the Pantheon, the last one anyone would expect Tinker Bell to befriend would've been Guts, considering his infamous reputation as the Black Swordsman. But as Tinker Bell soon discovered, he was a lot more than his reputation entailed. Tink happened upon Guts after a brutal battle. He had faced the notorious Zorda and her seven followers, with Guts only managing to survive the fight. When Tink approached, she was met by two pixies, the blue-haired Puck and the pick-haired Ivalera. After the initial hostilities, they explained that Guts was too weak to move and they needed to get back to their other companions. Tink came up with a solution; Pixie Dust. Using her talents, Guts began to float, much to everyone's shock as the other components of flight in Neverland were faith and trust. Apparently, Guts had enough trust in Tink to allow her to do her work. After returning to camp, Guts was patched up and expected to make a full recovery and with that, Tink was ready to head out... but not until Puck and Ivalera stopped her. They explained how Guts had done so much for them and they couldn't thank her for what she did. Tink was surprised and somewhat humbled, and will sometimes stop by Guts' temple to see how his journey is faring, even introducing Peter Pan to Puck and Ivalera. It did end up putting them on Zorda's hitlist, as well as earning the ire of Guts' former friend turned Godhand, Griffith. Tink doesn't seem to mind.
• One day, Fawn and Iridessa came across a round, pink ball sleeping under a tree near Pixie Hollow. They told Tink about it, and together they investigated. Turned out the ball was a strange creature called Kirby, and upon seeing the fairies got excited. It took a moment to realize what he was happy about until they did some research. Turns out Kirby once met a fairy from Ripple Star named Ribbon, and helped her collect the Crystal Shards to defeat the Dark Matter Horde. And as fate would have it, Dark Matter invaded the Pantheon a few days after Tink met Kirby. She instantly called upon the puffball's help, and one Final Smash later, the menace was put in its place. Since then, Kirby has been welcomed to visit Pixie Hollow... as long as he doesn't eat up every bit of food in sight.
• One day, Tink and Peter discovered Wendy had been abducted by Captain Hook - again - and set off to rescue her. The pair ended up encountering a young boy named Sora, along with his animal companions Donald Duck and Goofy, who were aboard the Jolly Roger to rescue their own friend Kairi. Together, the group fought off Hook and his Heartless army before taking Wendy back to London. Afterwards, Peter asked Sora to take Tink with him on his further journeys. Tink became a vital summon on Sora's adventures, helping heal the boy whenever he got injured in battle. That being said, she likes to mess around with Donald Duck at any given opportunity. She was happy to see all three appear in the Pantheon, lending her assistance whenever Sora needs aid. But as it turned out the little pixie had her fair share of strange encounters. Ten years before meeting Sora, Tinker Bell met three other keyblade masters named Terra, Ventus and Aqua, whom she allied herself with against Hook and the black-masked warrior Vanitas. As well, she encountered Organization XIII members Roxas and Axel and helped them learn to fly and deal with the Heartless trailing after the Captain. Due to these multiple encounters, Tink often aids Sora and his allies against not only the Heartless but the Nobodies and Unversed that also threaten the worlds, putting her at odds with the aforementioned Maleficent, her bumbling lackey Pete and the nefarious Master Xehanort.
• Now Tink goes back and forth from speaking like other people to communicating via bell-like sounds. Most folks have trouble understanding what she is saying... but they learn very quickly. Turns out the first phrase most people learn in the fairy language is "You silly ass," mostly thanks to Tinker Bell saying it so many times. Wendy can attest to this. For her part, Tink doesn't seem to mind and continues to do so to anyone she doesn't like.

• Pitied by: The Unconquered Sun, Cosmos, Ahura Mazda
• Respected by: Serpent, Khorne
• Disrespects: The Grand United Alliance of Good
• Magsarion was from a world forcibly divided by good and evil, but the good faction were more defined than their opposition to the evil faction than virtue. And Magsarion was notorious for being absolutely ruthless towards the forces of evil, who'd slay a good village to eliminate a single deva problem. The brother (actually son with Ahura Mazda ) of the legendary Vahram, though he resented the comparison the the point of becoming a Blank Slate just to gain some modicum of individuality. He acts without remorse with an incomparable ruthlessness, all to achieve his goals using his hatred of evil as fuel. Even omnicide is but a means to an end.
  • Over time he came to hate the amorphous and indefinite nature of the world itself. After a stint of youth and interactions with Quinn, he finally gained a concrete goal with his hatred, to absorb the ideals and wishes of those who were touched by his brother in order to finally surpass him and leave him behind and to become a complete whole. The most important figure in this quest was the holy king Sirius whose jaded beliefs about the world carried over to Magsarion, the belief that in order for this farce to end he must become the greatest of evils that slays all other evils. With this as well as the fall of the final archdemon, he set out on an omnicide in order to reach the Throne of the world and the current ruling God. As he lacked a true Hegemonic craving, this was the only way to reach her. Only after facing down and gaining understanding of his father at the final frontier did he become complete allowing him to Emanate, though with his old personality being overridden with the new one using Sirius as a base.
  • He never lost a battle in his life and as all Hegemonic Gods he achieved multiversal levels of power. Though he ranks fairly poorly in terms of actual divine power, as the Ultimate Warrior whose sole focus have been on killing he is able to take on foes far outside his tier. Eventually Muzan was overthrown by Nerose Satanel outsmarting him through impressive use of time travel, but this act would create the paradox that later formed his own replacement. If Muzan's world is one where good doesn't exist, Nerose's is one where evil CANNOT. Despite this Muzan isn't all that mad at him as it destroyed the last vestiges of Mithra's world.
• To the dread of many he retained his godly power upon ascension rather than reverting to his more manageable but still lethal "human" form...though as he originated as as a void of black flames under the armor and was an Apoptosis born from the self-destructive desires of his mother it's not like he was ever normal. He's been compared to the Biblical YHWH, though when asked about YHVH, Muzan has stated He is far closer to Nerose Satanel than himself. He considers YHVH more of a rival than a standard enemy, and sees His destruction and recreation of the world to achieve a perfect one without free will somewhat of an exercise in futility. YHVH considers him more of a rival as well and has stated his world is far from what He desires, along with pointing out his quote of "an exercise in futility" is applicable to him. Naturally, Muzan was well aware of that.
• Minus the anti-mortal spiel he's akin to Zamasu as they fight for what is right above all sanity, perverting them into being just as bad as what they fight against and their goals amount to "destroy the cosmos to to rebuild it in their own image". Arguments of who is more genuine in their belief aside, perhaps the key way they differ is that the Remorseless is well-aware of what he's doing as an evil that destroys other evils while Zamasu lives in denial he could be evil and his opponents could be good...much less that he is far more evil than almost any mortal. Despite hating his mortal origins, Zamasu begrudgingly admits their similarities, which is why they share similar levels of antipathy from Future Trunks.
• He still feels no shame or regret, only frustration that the chaos of the First Heaven continued with the Second. His Law forces all individuals to bear sin within their hearts, but erases the concept of evil from his universe. While erasing evil, it does not erase evil actions, which are constantly punished by more "evil" actions in order to reach good. Some have compared this to the ever-present wrath of the Spectre, which the angel finds utterly enraging. The Wrath of God simply considers what Magsarion does and is evil and has tried to punish him, but the Throne is beyond even his power. The Living Tribunal shared the Spectre's consternations, but this has less to do with morality and more that he feels no-one has the right for a Hadou God, save the likes of Ren Fuji. Muzan merely commented that he should consider taking the Throne to be akin to Thanos obtaining the Infinity Gauntlet; he "earned" it.
• Magsarion may have become a God of Evil, but while Hajun is completely insane it should always be remembered that as Muzan he becomes the superior evil to destroy evil And more importantly, life is still possible in his world. To him Lord English is as mad as Hajun, seeking to kill everyone and everything for no sane reason while sharing his utter determination to win. He regards gods of evil like Melkor and Angra Mainyu as forces to utterly destroy in the most thorough and violent way possible. While no-one can deny such beings have it coming, Melkor pointed out if he were to strike him down he would be no less evil. The Remorseless responded with "I know, but unlike you I accepted an end to that Vicious Cycle. And I know you only care about the fear of being struck down".
• Amazingly even he might have bitten off more than he could chew going after Nyarlathotep who is one of the few beings that may be stronger than a Hadou God. Given he's relentlessly malignant in a way most of his kind aren't, Muzan regards striking the Outer God down and proving his superiority high priority. Though the other Outer Gods balk at a former human (eh, close enough for them) holding the power he does, the Crawling Chaos is best left as far away from the Throne as possible. Muzan wholeheartedly agrees that'd be a nightmare scenario.
• Though his primary target is evil, he doesn't think much of good either. Perhaps unsurprisingly given his background he hates the kind of blind heroism often spoken of in stories, viewing it as disgusting and shallow, and it's why he shows nothing but scoffing for the GUAG and their lofty ambitions of eliminating evil. The GUAG is willing to have more unscrupulous deities serve them, and they admitted Muzan would be a powerful asset against the GUAE, but they consider him too unstable and remorseless even if he wanted to join them. He doesn't think much of Ahura Mazda, Cosmos or the Unconquered Sun as he scoffs at the general idea of good as a force. That said the enmity is more on the GUAG's side because of how far he goes and the Crapsack World created by him.
• In spite of his evil, Magsarion enjoys a degree of pity from the aforementioned gods of good as they see him for what he is; a burned out, cynical man who's a product of a broken system. The Zoroastrian god believes the First Heaven is a stark warning of what might happen if he lets his war with his Evil Twin pervert the world to stop him. Magsarion's mother had the same name and comparable morals to him, being a sensory for Mithra. The Unconquered Sun has admitted he has considerable burn-out, though in contrast to Muzan he is The Fettered. And Cosmos naturally could understand him being sick of the eternal struggle. Unsurprisingly their sympathy annoys him.
• He scoffs at celestial duos of good and evil/order and chaos that are forever tied and equal in power as it's that kind of Forever War he destroyed and restarted the cosmos to eliminate; to a tiny degree he's the least frustrated over the Zoroastrian gods because one side is eventually going to win despite their equal power. He and the Divine Powers ended up finding common ground in the idea that the world needs to be reborn in order to break the cycle of eternal conflict. Ultimately they fell out over how to implement this restart and the position of gods and mortals in it. That, and the Second Heaven has a lot more respect for Nagashi and Dagda as he thinks they're more worthy of ending the Order Versus Chaos Forever War.
• He most certainly can't care about how Khorne respects him as much as that makes sense for a Chaos God of hate, and that's mainly because his own hatred and utter Blood Knight tendencies would've made him a perfect follower. Serpent also respects him for being a force of change, conflict and hatred he believes is necessary to improve the world. The GUAC head Lucifer actually likes what he did and his desire to change the status quo, though some of the methods and the fact he inherited the baggage of Mithra isn't what he wants.

Probably would ally himself with Beast!Megatron, who also is absolutely ruthless.

@Bazzard

I do believe in fairies! I do! I do!

@ Bazzard: I don't think just sharing a trope is enough

@ Merlina: Punishing Bird, Judgement Bird, and Big Bird wanted to save their home of the Black Forest from a monster foretold in a prophecy but the extremes they went to ruined its prosperity and they eventually become the monsters fated to destroy it.

Unless there are some minor fixes I'm otherwise done with Yan.

• The City’s Backstreets see no shortage are pretty much an entirely different world from the Nests they surround as they have no shortage of Syndicates skulking its grounds and borders. Of the various gangs and bands of lowlifes that pop up by the day and are prone to disappear just as quickly, there exist five Syndicates who stand at the apex of the Backstreets. The Five Fingers, otherwise known as the Hand, are the ruling powers of the Backstreets and have grown so powerful that not even the Wings or even the Head can easily interfere with their business. One of the Fingers, the Index, is essentially a cult that follows bizarre orders known as Prescripts, a phenomenon that has long cemented itself as a Star of the City type of threat. No one knows where they came from, and no Prescript is similar to one another, but whatever orders permitted must be carried out with faith no matter how odd or brutal they may be. Failure to follow them results in a visit by a Proxy to punish the rulebreaker.
  • Enter Yan Vismok, a young man whose life was ruined by the Prescripts as he was forced to put down his friends and family thanks to them, but the last straw finally came when he received a Prescript that followed the aforementioned deed. He expected that it would have ordered him to take his own life but instead Yan was left with the orders to join the Index as a Messenger tasked with delivering those same instructions that brought so much pain. After staring blankly at the paper in his hands, Yan resolved to use his position to forge them as he pleased, expressing his free will and showcasing they aren’t as absolute as everyone thinks... That was the plan, anyway. Later on, he would find that this, too, was willed by these mysterious messages he sought to deviate from as they ordered his peers to follow his counterfeit commands, even if it meant imminent death by heading into the Library. As the Prescripts command. Yan himself would be handed a Prescript that would take him to where they are “born” and though the Prescripts are physically transcribed from the City's "heartbeat" through a seismograph-like device, and the papers themselves were born from the City folk’s collective pleas and wishes. The Prescripts, and really the City itself, is like that because humans themselves are and have always been cruel. The revelation proves too much to bear, crushing his will as he accepts the futility of fighting and succumbs to the Distortion Phenomenon. He would later head into the Library and turn into a book but following Angela's decision to spread the Light once more, Yan was freed.
• To .... Search for a painting of a lighthouse and remove it to find a tunnel. Enter the tunnel and walk 400 meters to the right until you reach the exit.
• Under the guidance of the Prescripts, Yan made his way to the Pantheon as they instructed and found that taking his title was a straightforward process. The Index Messenger easily took his place God of Resignation as that was his reaction upon discovering the true nature of the Prescripts before his very eyes. In any case, his presence heralded the encroaching influence of the Index as a whole as Prescripts began to pop up around the Pantheon every now and then. Some deities and roaming mortals decided to play along, but when others refused (either due to the ridiculousness or just brushing off the Prescripts themselves), that was when the Proxies came along to punish such inbsubordination. In the past, Yan would hide his growing grief and disgust at having to deliver such things but following his Distortion he soon came to accept them. As he had learned prior, the Prescripts brutality is ultimatley the fault of no one and though they bring pain it does serve as a compass to an aimless existence. And that is enough for him.
• To .... Purchase the largest stuffed bear at the store nearest to your home. The species does not matter.
• When Yan fell to the Distortion Phenomenon, he became a mechanical monstrosity known as 얀샋ㄷ요무. No, that was not a mistake, his form is actually named that way. By itself, it doesn't actually mean anything but if entered on an English keyboard it simply spells out Yan or Distorted Yan. The same is true for his other names such as enlxmfflsdis, ,D@;Q7N, and rnfmabj^note his names in Korean, Japanese, and Simplified Chinese respectively. The Wubi method is needed for the latter to properly translate it. For sanity's sake, this form will simply be called "Distorted Yan". Going back to the Distortion himself, upon entering such as state he sought nothing more than to obey the will of the Prescripts and, by extension, the Will of the City itself. Unique to the Pantheon itself is how Yan can seemingly swap between both his human and Distorted form seemingly at will though no matter the state he remains broken and continues to act in favor of the Prescripts. While his human form is by all accounts no slouch to anyone seeking to shoot the messenger, it's generally accepted that Distorted Yan is the more dangerous of the two. Distortions themselves have demonstrated strange, almost magic-like powers and Distorted Yan is no different. And that's setting aside the giant hands that can crush human beings to mushy paste.
• To .... Go to a roundabout in the Hall of Non-Vehicular Travel and walk 10 laps.
• As Yan would find out the Prescripts may seem nonsensical, but the demands inscribed on them are not at all random. Underneath its seemingly pointless cruelty, the Prescripts are seemingly omniscient which is perhaps owed to its nature as a sort of Tulpa created by the City folk, and its commands are said to benefit the Index in the long run. One could say that trying to cut his strings Yan still found himself to but their proxy he ultimately lost against fate itself. Others in the Pantheon have went against such oppressive flows though unlike him they've come out to be more successful in their battles. The Defiers of Fate were saddled with the fates of becoming I'Cie and opted to take a third option and forge their own destinies. Luke fon Fabre and fought against the Score which dictated the fates of everyone living within his world. He himself was exempt from it due to being a Replica. Shulk, meanwhile, can glipse into the future after taking hold of the Monado granting him the ability to avoid it. And Seto Kaiba outright does not believe in fate or destiny at all. Despite this, he holds no malice towards them as his last moments of lucidity were that someone could have better luck fighting such a thing. Seeing them bear fruit from their labor is... moving. On the otherside of the coin they are all disgusted by the Index while many of them do pity Yan's situation they also can't stand for the Syndicate enforcing the Prescripts' will either which has led to them fighting their agents, Yan included.
• To .... Gather a bouquet of spider lillies and propose to the 3rd teal-haired person you come across.
• Enrico Pucci is all too familiar with fate being a cruel mistress and has experienced his fair of tragedy thanks to it. With help from his closest ally DIO, Pucci came to the conclusion that for people to be happy, rather than try and fight it, they must know about the fate lies ahead of them in full. To do that, he must attain Heaven. Pucci believes there's enough of an overlap between his ideals and the Index to work together and has reached out to Yan, their representative in the Pantheon. Due to the fickle and shambolic nature of the Prescripts, however, he's also made sure to keep his distance. In any case, he's keen on using the Syndicate to his advantage against his enemies.
• To .... Make 4 paper stars. On the next day after receiving the Prescript, deliver them to an editor and a mechanic in the House of Profession.
• He is sometimes seen moving through the House of Prophecy. Though this has worried several passerby so far the Prescripts handed to some of the residing gods have been "tame" in the sense they're relatively straightforward and aren't as gruesome. It is theorized that somewhere underground there exists a bunker that produces the Pantheon's Prescripts. Some rumors have even gone to say it's but one of many.
• To .... For 2 days, do not use your left hand.
• Both Stanley and ICEY were all too familiar with a narrator railroading them into the story they wanted to tell. While its not quite fate, their agency being put into question is quite like Yan's in the end. Neither of them are quite fond of the Prescripts for this very reason and the latter has also been keen on watching out for the Prescripts.
• To .... At night, go to a lake where moonlight is reflected and drink at least 1 once of water direclty from it.
• Brutal as the Index is in executing Prescripts, they're otherwise generally reasonable as there are various laws set by the Syndicate that forbids pointless violence and Yan himself is not exempt from this even after he was broken into becoming a Distortion. They only seek to carry out Prescripts as they come. Of course, other crime organizations view Yan with caution, especially so as the Index quickly made a name for themselves in the House of Crime and Transgressions. One of Yan's false Prescripts forced the Proxies to declare war on the Thumb, a rival Finger and mafia-like Syndicate, and it ended with the remaining personnel in the L Corp's Nest being dismembered and skewered on pikes. Diavolo regards the Index as rivals, while the DiMeo Crime Family and Bucciarati's Gang as utterly insane and the latter has worked to oppose the cruelty of the Prescripts.
• To .... Find a person named Dakota and talk with them. Two days after talking with them, sneak into their house and put fire ants on their bed.
• A peaceful, nature loving cult known as the Hårga, having encountered Distorted Yan more often than not, view him as a monster and done all sorts of things to drive him away though Yan himself has not acted against them beyond observing at a distance. Yan himself doesn't have any opinion on the Hårga, not even disgust as groups like them exist just about anywhere in the City. As one Proxy claims, everyone within the City is fundamentally the same and it's only the methodology that divides them. Overall, while the Hårga are suspicious the turht is violence between them hardly, if at all, occurs. The same cannot be said for Los Illuminados as conflict between them happen much more often. Yan himself has delivered Prescripts that ordered acts of violence against the Apocalypse Cult and even has personally killed some of them himself under those orders.
• To .... Shove the hand of the 5th person who mugged you onto a tablesaw. If the person has a blue butterfly hairclip in their possession, do the same with their other hand.
• Winston and Julia met Yan one day when he suddenly appeared for the purpose of delivering paper stars to each of them while they were at work in the House of Profession as part of a Prescript before swiftly departing. The two were left confused but after looking into the stranger they were left horrified by Yan's situation having lived under Oceania's totalitarian rule. As if living under the Head and the Wings wasn't bad enough, the state of the Backstreets is appalling with all the Fixers and Syndicates running around. The two were also left saddened after hearing of Yan's own attempts at rebellion before being left utterly broken that he willingly serves the Prescripts instead.
• To .... Grind the bodies of the 57th, 58th, 59th, 60th, and 61st people you meet today into mush and form their remains into slabs (must be done neatly).
• O'Brien finds a criminal organization that can match the authorities of the world he hails from to be concerned and has tried to work towards eliminating the Index. Key word being tried as while O'Brien is a rightfully-feared agent and doesn't believe in the Prescripts to be anything more than nonsense, phasing the Finger and its agents proved to be difficult. Distorted Yan at one point compressed several Thought Police, who were sent to intercept him and confiscate his Prescripts, into neatly-folded slabs before disappearing. That's also not getting into the problem how to psychologically phase someone like Yan, though O'Brien is confident in finding a way to instill the ideals of Big Brother onto him.
