Welcome to the Trope Pantheons thread! Please read the rules:
- When writing a profile, take note of the following:
- The very first thing any contributor should do before working on an idea or a profile is to propose and nominate the idea on the Trope Pantheons discussion thread
. In the forums, you must discuss with other users on adding ideas and seek their approval with sound reasoning, a paragraph of reasoning to justify taking a trope should be sufficient. 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. You can also get some assistance in the forum thread by either asking for help and those interested asking if they can help. Attempting to work on ideas without a nomination and at least one net thumbs-up will not be accepted regardless of how much you have written already. 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- If you feel the need to remove a character for some reason (poor quality, outdated titles, etcetera) and replace him/her with another or outright rework, please see what the other tropers think about this in the discussion thread before doing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. For reworks in particular, nominate the idea as you would with new characters or profiles. 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.
- 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, either in the Pantheon or the Sandbox sections.
- 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
- 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 creativity to create hypothetical scenarios towards fictional characters. Some real-life individuals, including content creators (fictional content created by them is still fair-game, but do not bring up the creators themselves in such cases), may be considered disqualified for profiles due to controversies that would make them concern the Rule of Cautious Editing Judgment. To determine where a current creator would be disqualified:
- Wait for at least a month after the latest significant update for a creator's controversy before any decision can be made. If a confirmation from the questioned creator (or associates) themselves occurs, then wait for a week.
- Immediate disqualification for either a guilty sentence in a significant court case against the creator, or evidence of consistently repeated, deliberate, and/or intentionally provocative hate speech and advocacy of dehumanizing perspectives, with lesser examples warranting caution instead.
- For creators with a clear persona of their character disclosed before any scandal, the persona can have a profile with no mentioning of their real-life information. Ambiguous existence of a persona would have to be discussed further hand for anything more decisive.
- For obvious reasons, gods cannot be followers, high priests, or heralds. 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.
- The very first thing any contributor should do before working on an idea or a profile is to propose and nominate the idea on the Trope Pantheons discussion thread
- 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 new and reworked deities, 3
- For adding new Treasures to The Great Treasury or new Dominions to the Dominions Expansion, 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.
- For new Treasures or Dominions, 3
- Do not repost a profile in the forums more than twice 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 one flavor 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 to look like Character Shilling.
- Every troper new to the Pantheon is barred from approving or downvoting profiles until they have ascended at least two profiles, this means avoiding the usage of "
" or "
".
- 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 the 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. After all, no one is responding to their idea.
- You can also adopt a profile or idea to work on from another contributor by messaging a request to them (preferably through private messages). Even if you get their permission, you still have to announce your adoption to the forum. Note that if the idea wasn't nominated in the first place you still have to properly nominate it.
- 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 note in a trope example that the character is a God of this trope, do not do it. If you see leftovers of this practice, correct the situation by deleting the offending text. This goes for any non-Pantheon 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 Pantheon.Good And Evil Colors.
- Do not bring things that would incite fights; hot topics and 'urgent' news are not pertinent to the Pantheon's mission. For example, the political scene and some really bad politicians. We are not here to fight each other, so don't suggest things that go in 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.
- When writing a profile for a character, here are a few things to note:
- Please refer to Text Formatting Rules when writing a profile, since understanding how to make and edit site pages in general is a necessity for working on profiles or other Pantheon content. Additionally, if you are not experienced with English, refer to this forum page
, as proper English spelling and grammar is expected.
- 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 another House as well. Up to 2 places can be made for a deity at most.
- 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 of their series' official soundtracks from the 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 highlight 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 it 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 many bytes, it is suggestible to use this site
to reduce the byte size. If the byte is still too big, run the compressed image through other sites (or even the same one) to compress even further. Use wikis to look for better images, as even wikis 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 make sense (i.e those characters that are shout-outs for another).
- Please refer to Text Formatting Rules when writing a profile, since understanding how to make and edit site pages in general is a necessity for working on profiles or other Pantheon content. Additionally, if you are not experienced with English, refer to this forum page
- 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. 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 an expectation to build the profiles off interactions from fictional portrays rather than basing it entirely 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 where trope-less profiles 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 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.
- Do not write in self-promotion or blatant advertising. Minor references to something are fine but writing that clearly intends to advertise something will not be given toleration.
- 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. 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 on 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 Warper deities 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 Warper deities 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 Warper beings 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: Badass Normal citizens of the pantheon, making up for their lower status with strength, strategy, and/or planning.
- Quasideities: Any otherwise normal human, human equivalent, or below without any special powers or training will fall here.
- 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 the 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 alignments to characters that don't have an 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 the deity would be unavailable, incapacitated, dead, or otherwise incapable of carrying out their duties. 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 from their perspective 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 oppose or are opposed by (basically the opposite of "Respects", "On Good Terms With", and/or "Commonality Connection") in 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.
- OPTIONAL NOTE FOR CHARACTER RELATIONSHIPS: Should the list for Character relationships (IE. Allies, Enemies, etc.) become too big, categorize a certain number of characters to a specific group putting them on a sublist (One example: Luigi is from the same world as his brother Mario, hence Luigi should be fall under the Super Mario Bros sublist.)
- 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 is 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 of 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 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.
- 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 to where the dominion is linked to, note them using the relationships, this includes deities that theoretically have interest with said dominion, good or evil otherwise.
- Add the Intro. Here the introduction of the Dominion is added with some tidbits regarding the origins of its' creation and usage in the story. You can also add what made it popular/iconic/important here.
- Now add some random trivia/facts about events/alignments/moments/fights/friendships/relations etc.
- And some more trivia/facts.
- And a couple more.
- Note: Standard amount of flavor text for Dominions is 10 at minimum to 15 at maximum.
- An image, if possible. Please use official art or a screenshot for a picture.
- Appearance: A shortened description of the item's looks with some notable features also mentioned.
- Class: Refer to the Treasure Classification System in the Great Treasury.
- Alignment: Refers to the objects' role in their story, be it those used by villains or used by the Player Character.
- Theme Song (Optional): Not important as compared to Deity and Dominion profiles but a notable mention if there is an accompanying song in use with the object.
- Museum Check: A note that says whether the item is viewable by the public.
- Portfolio: Tropes associated with the item.
- Domains: Things that the item has links to.
- Relationships (Optional): Unless the item has a connection with a specific deity, relationships are optional and may not be required. However, if there are deities linked to the same series as to where the item is linked to (especially the original owner of the item), note them using the relationships, this includes deities that theoretically have interest with said object, good or evil otherwise.
- Add the Intro. Here the introduction of the Treasure is added with some tidbits regarding the origins of its' creation and usage in the story. You can also add what made it popular/iconic/important here.
- Now add some random trivia/facts about events/alignments/moments/fights/friendships/relations etc.
- And some more trivia/facts.
- And a couple more.
- Note: Standard amount of flavor text for Treasures is 7 at minimum to 12 at maximum.

Anyone currently working on a rework on Agent 47's profile?
It's a bit too short imo and I would like to know if his profile needs expanding or if it's fine as it is.
If I were to take it, I wanna include a brief character information/lore from his franchise (and specifically his reboot game, whose main story was finished last year), tropes relating to his job (such as him traveling to various places, to his feelings about being a Clone made for killing), which isn't mentioned at all, to adding a few characters from his games or more interactions from other gods that can relate/oppose to him. I don't want to include too much obviously but I do think it needs an update.
On a similar note, what is a good reason for a profile remake anyway, if you don't mind me asking?
“I'm willing to admit that I may not always be right, but I am never wrong.” ― Samuel Goldwyn@Shonen- Since what made Julia Montague a target of assassination was how she implemented much tighter and strict security measures, how would David deal with those like Big Brother who takes Julia's actions to an abusive extreme? Implement that and I'll give you my

That profile is definitely in need of a rework. You can nominate a rework request for him the same way you nominate deities like others have here, then you can improve his profile and expand it to meet the standards that recent profiles have.

KILL CONSUME MULTIPLY CONQUERUpdate on Time And Temporality and Space And Cosmos. I've added a villainous rep group in the latter, consisting of Greeza, Lavos, and Nicol Bolas and I've changed the top index interface on all the (former) Time and Space Halls to get myself ready for the eventual House split. Based on my edits, anything else that can be added/removed/expanded on, or is it ready to go?
With Majin Buu no longer being a Horseman of Death, we'd be needing a replacement for him in this regard. So here are the choices I can narrow it down to, depending on who is willing to follow Melkor's ambitions and means...
I also have a second idea where Melkor himself is removed from The Four Horsemen and instead gets his own representing simply as The God of Evil or The Ultimate Icon of Malice. He still stays on Villainy as a Guardian Rep and on top of the Four Horsemen to affirm that he is the biggest presence of the House and that the Horsemen are his main representing allies. That would vacate Conquest for a replacement.

WHERE IS KRYPTO, I mean, WHERE IS THE DOG!!!
for Time and Space split and Damien Thorn being the new Villainy Guardian and Melkor's placement.

If melkor is being kicked out of the horsemen too, might as well vote for a second.
Good on Damien and Junko. The GUAE are diverse too
Pantheon server for all who click here. Lost too much money and time, this coaster ain’t stopping.![]()

for the Split and for Damien Thorn as the new Horseman of Death, and Ganondorf as the new Horseman of Conquest.
On the Subject of the new House of Space And Cosmos, would it be alright to assume that this is where a number of intergalactic politicians, Galactic Superpowers, Alien Royals, and Space Cops are at their most active? And would it be to far off to say that the House is somehow connected to Dominions Expansion?
Edited by AzureLegacy on Jun 27th 2022 at 7:32:16 AM
Seems Damien is set to become a new Guardian. and Melkor getting a kick up. Anyway, I vouch for Plutonian as the second newcomer for the Four Horsemen, but whoever wins, I'll still be satisfied.
Awaiting some final responses for the House Splits and the Horsemen newcomers.
WHERE IS KRYPTO, I mean, WHERE IS THE DOG!!!The Houses of Space and Cosmos and Time and Temporality are finally set. On an additional note, The Four Horsemen has seen a large shift, with Melkor being moved up to be the biggest representation for Villainy, with Damien Thorn and Ganondorf becoming Horsemen of Conquest and Death respectively.
And, well, there's one bad news; there's going to be a lot of wick checking and rewicking after this...
WHERE IS KRYPTO, I mean, WHERE IS THE DOG!!!Anything else I can add to these two?
Balan, Lance, Leo Craig, and Emma Cole, Gods of Having Lore Explained Through External Sources

-
: 2 (ShonenTrash98, kingvideogames)

- Leo: Friendless Background, Wouldn't Hurt a Child
- Emma: Lonely Rich Kid, Forgot Their Own Birthday
- Domains: Dreams, Theater, Dancing
- High Priest: The cast of EarthBound Beginnings
- Allies: Razputin, The Phantom Thieves of Hearts, Ronald McDonald, Wander, Frisk, NiGHTS (Balan, Leo, and Emma); Crow (Lance); Pinkie Pie, Nagi Sanzen'in, Charlie Bucket, Charlotte LaBouff, Richie Rich, Sara Crewe (Emma); Neku Sakuraba, Makoto Kenzaki/Cure Sword (Leo)
- Enemies: The Heartless, Dimentio, Joker (Pretty Cure), Kefka, Vex, Reala, Eliza and Neil Reagan, Princess Morbucks
- Wary of: Shūkurō Tsukishima
- Leo and Emma were two young kids who suffered from opposite problems. Emma suffers from loneliness because people talk ill about her behind her back, while Leo thinks it's better to be alone after getting into an argument with a friend. Their issues lead them to the Balan Theater, a mysterious theater owned by the mysterious Balan, host of the theater and a charismatic entertainer who sends them to Wonderworld to restore the balance within their hearts. The children explored twelve different worlds inhabited by people whose hearts were led astray by their personal issues and were corrupted by Lance, the dark counterpart of Balan. Upon freeing all twelve inhabitants from their burdens, Leo and Emma clashed with Lance, defeating him with the aid of the inhabitants before they are all send home by Balan, who shares a tearful goodbye with the two. Upon returning, Leo reconciles with his friend and bonds with a dance group he had previously shunned while Emma finds out that her servants and friends were holding a birthday party.
- These particular four deities had a rather unusual ascension. The Court of the Gods found two different takes on their case, but one had more information about the kids, Balan, and Lance than the other did. Because of this, the Court decided to offer the four deityship over having lore explained through external sources. Leo and Emma would find themselves in the Balan Theater once again, where Balan explains how they've given an invitation to the Trope Pantheons. After accepting, the three would end up crossing paths with Lance, who also ended up in the Pantheon after his defeat in Leo and Emma's adventure. Whether he was dragged off by the Negati to parts unknown or left after giving Balan a Breaking Speech, Lance doesn't seem to be causing trouble for now, but it's still clear that he still wants what's best for humanity (even if it means trapping them in their dream world) and believes that eventually Balan will follow suit.
- Leo and Emma had crossed paths with other deities that explored mental worlds as a way to deal with trauma.
- Razputin got along quite well the two, considering how his adventures revolved around overcoming other people's personal issues and he's happy the two also managed to overcome their struggles in the real world as well. Razputin's fear of water reminded the children of Fiona Demetria, though learning about it being caused by curse (or so Razputin thought) instead of normal causes left them unsure of how they could have helped prior to him overcoming that fear. At the very least, they're glad that Razputin no longer fears water, but they are respectful when they hear he still doesn't want to master his power over water.
- The duo learned about how the Phantom Thieves of Hearts had used their power to brainwash corrupt adults who couldn't be punished by the law into confessing their sins and beg to be punished, and they were quite shocked to learn of how many horrible adults there were for the Phantom Thieves to face, admitting that the Phantom Thieves' power really made it necessary. The children got along with all of them, but Sumire, Joker, and Futaba probably grew the closest to the three considering how horrible their backstories were to the point they could have ended up in the Balan Theater. Hikari befriends Leo and Emma due to how her traumas trapped her in an Epiphanic Prison and she needed outside help to break free from her torment and overcome her issues. Takuto Maruki's practice of forcefully trapping people in a perfect world without pain reminds them of Lance, with the latter even noting how similar he is to the human and expresses genuine sympathy. He does sense that Maruki's still resides within and warns him that the right trigger can still bring it out, just like how he grew close to humans, and it left him with pain and misery.
- Leo, Emma and Balan would be enemies with The Heartless because of their similarities to the Negati. Though in this case, they consider the former more dangerous because not only could they manifest in the real world (whereas the Negati can only manifest in Wonderworld), but they can actually turn people into Heartless themselves. Because of this, they help Sora and his companions fight off Heartless and those who command them for their own agenda.
- Lance had warned Balan that he gets too close to humans, he will eventually fall into despair and misery like he did and become the second Lance. This warning would get the House of Opposing Fate interested, seeing and betting if Lance would be right or wrong about Balan going down the path he did in the end. Despite Balan's insistence that won't happen, even he doesn't seem to believe his own words, though he still has friends that will keep him on the right for as long as possible until they can find the means to change fate.
- Dimentio, Smile! Joker, Kefka and Vex are all Monstrous Magical Clowns, but unlike Lance, they have no redeeming qualities at all and are downright vile. Because of this, Balan immediately declares them as his most vile adversaries, promising to take the fight to them if they cause so much harm. The 4 clowns on the other hand heard of Lance's story and his connection to Balan, so they're greatly interested in corrupting him and turning him into the second Lance under their control. Lance in turn sees them as a threat to humanity, to the point he's even willing to cooperate with Balan to stop them.
- Exclusive to Balan:
- Ronald McDonald, being a Non-Ironic Clown and Friend to All Children that's occasionally shown to wield magic, got along pretty well with Balan, since they both care about making their guests happy, albeit through different means. Balan occasionally comes to visit Ronald during their free time to speak about how they can entertain guests of the Balan Theater and McDonalds respectively. Ronald shows sympathy for Balan after hearing of how he grew to care for his guests and how it pains him every time they leave, reassuring him they still have to enjoy the time they had with their friends and help them as much as possible.
- Balan would cross paths with NiGHTS after entering the Pantheon. The two became quick friends after seeing just how similar the two are. Balan was at least happy that NiGHTS would win his freedom and individuality from Wizeman, while NiGHTS was sympathetic towards Balan after hearing of his origins and how he may destined to take his creator and predecessor's place as the new Lance, promising to help him find a way to avert this fate, something that Balan appreciates very much.
- Exclusive to Lance:
- Crow and Lance get along very well for being Affably Evil villains, even if Lance isn't much of a villain. Because of this, the two hang out together during their off-time, discussing their relationship with their adversaries. Lance was quite shocked to learn that Crow's enemy stopped fighting Crow and taking him seriously as a threat, which led to Crow actually succeeding in his Evil Plan. Lance actually notes how irresponsible this was, especially since he left his girlfriend in Crow's clutches.
- There were plenty of people who felt sorry for Lance after hearing of his backstory. Frisk and Wander for example wanted save him from the sorrow and misery of humans that corrupted him in the first place. Lance tells them that they should first focus on keeping Balan from falling into the same trap he did if they want to help him. The fact that the Negati have control over Lance rather than the other way around may also be something they have to factor in.
- Reala, a loyal subordinate to the Ruler of Nightmares, Wizeman, took interest in Lance after hearing of how similar he is to himself and his master. He has attempted to recruit Lance to Wizeman's side, but Lance has refused. As extreme as his methods are, he always sought to make people happy, whereas Reala and Wizeman only cared about control over Nightopia and the Waking World. Reala scornfully tells him that he's no different from them no matter what he says, and promises he'll rue the day he spurns his offer.
- Exclusive to Leo:
- Leo found a kindred spirit in Neku, who also started isolating from other people and refused to connect with others until his adventure in a supernatural case. Both of them got along very well after meeting each other, talking about how forming connections with others helped them to grow as people. They also talked about a girl they formed a friendship with that mutually allowed them to change for the better (Emma and Shiki). Leo was also quite surprised to hear of how Neku got separated from Shiki, but was quite happy that he managed to reunite with her.
- Makoto Kenzaki saw a kindred spirit in Leo, since they were both loners who found friends during their journey. This allowed the two to get along very well as they talked about how their friends brought them out of their shells, allowing them to grow as people. Makoto encourages Leo to treasure his bonds with the friends he's made, something that touched the boy's heart as it reminds him of his bond with Balan, Emma, and the Inhabitants.
- Leo, in one timeline, had his memories of the outside world supressed by Lance after he lost to him. This made him sympathetic to those who have had their memories tampered with, and also made him view Shūkurō Tsukishima with distaste after learning of his power to rewrite people's memories. While Tsukishima isn't causing any trouble now, Leo understandably prefers to keep his distance.
- Exclusive to Emma:
- Pinkie Pie also thought friends were ignoring her for one day, only to find out they were planning a surprise birthday party for her, so she perfectly sympathized with Emma over her misunderstanding. Emma thought her friends and maids were talking ill about for reasons she couldn't understand, so it came off as a big surprise when found out it was her birthday. This allowed the girls to get along with each other as Pinkie promised to help her set up some parties, which Emma accepted.
- Emma got along well with other friendly rich kids such as Richie Rich and Charlie Bucket. In Charlie's case, Emma was quite sympathetic with his plight of being a poor boy and was happy he managed to get out of poverty with his family. Being Lonely Rich Kids allowed Emma and Nagi Sanzen'in to become good friends. Nagi didn't have many friends until Hayate encouraged her, but she was saddened to hear how Emma thought she didn't have any friends due to mistaking their surprise birthday plans for harmful gossip. This allowed the two form a very close friendship in the Pantheon.
- Emma has nothing but disgust for the likes of the Reagan siblings and Princess Morbucks due to how they treat other people from a lower class. She also can't stand the fact that they flaunt their wealth and use their status to pick on other people and get whatever they want. Because of this, Emma wants nothing to do with them and refuses to see them as friends.
- Charlotte became quick friends with Emma after hearing of her strife and how it was because she misunderstood her situation. Chalotte becomes encouraging to the young girl, ensuring her that while friends may keep secrets, not all secrets are bad, and they can be just as good as her surprise birthday party. Emma is sincerely grateful for this and tends to hang out with Charlotte in the House of Food to discuss their daily routines.
- Sara Crewe became Emma's best friend when the two meet each other, with Emma honored and eager to meet a princess in the Pantheon. Sara's kindness and imagination made her a good friend to Emma, while Emma's plight earned her Sara's sympathy but she's happy that Emma's dilemma wasn't really as bad as Emma though it was. Emma has invited Sara to go dancing during their free time, which Sara has accepted, while the latter has wondered if Emma and Leo have feelings for each other after seeing how close they were (though she doesn't ask this out loud).

- The Go-Getters Club were a group of twelve (originally 11) sixth grade elementary school misfits who were on a field trip when they get caught in a meteor impact and knocked out, waking up to find themselves in an underwater theme park where they are forced to play the Game of Fate by a mechanical mascot named Pielope. After Reycho wins the game and gets everyone out of there, they find the surface no longer what it used to be with abandoned buildings and strange monsters, leading the club to vow to get Tokyo to find out what happened. Joined by an amnesiac girl they named Yuki, the Go-Getters Club would discover the existence of MAIK, an Artificial Intelligence that has subjugated humanity and stripped them of their emotions, all the while encountering dangers from the monsters that roam the land, a cult that worships MAIK, and a vindictive Pielope. After almost reaching Tokyo, the Go-Getters Club would discover that Reycho and Pochi were actually robots created by MAIK for the purpose of spying on them, with Reycho also being remote-controlled robot operated by Pochi. Although their relationship with is briefly strained, the Go-Getters still go to Pochi's when he's captured by MAIK's robots, after which they meet MAIK, who reveals that he intends to turn the kids into humanity's "shepherds" or else he will kill them all. Instead, the Go-Getters track him down with the Otherworlder (the player themselves), rescue Vanilla (who has been in a comatose state after getting hit by a truck and has spent the rest of the journey as an astral body), Reycho (who gets rebuild and reprogrammed to be an attack robot, only to gain self-awareness thanks to the Go-Getters), and Yuki (who is revealed to be a sub-personality of MAIK representing its desire to befriend humanity), and finally erase MAIK's personality, freeing humanity from its thrall.
- The Go-Getters Club, after finally freeing humanity from the clutches of MAIK and saving their friends, get a surprised from a god from the Pantheon inviting them to become Gods of Returning to the Place that Started their Journey. The Court of the Gods took interest in their tale after hearing of how it started and ended at the same place. While some of the members are reluctant and wary after everything they've gone through, the club eventually agreed to it after hearing they'll still be able to go about their daily lives in their world in addition to making new discoveries. Reycho, Vanilla, and Yuki were probably the most excited to go, while Pochi is shocked to find out the Otherworlder that helped them all is residing within the Pantheon and becomes eager to meet them face to face. The rest of the club agree to join them due to trusting their judgement and wanting to expand their boundaries, marveling at the sights.
- Exclusive to multiple members of the club:
- Jennu can be seen attending the House of Theatre and Spectacle due to her love of the Hosekizuka Acting Trope. Kansai goes to the House of Sports due to his love of baseball. Mowchan goes to the House of Food to sample their wares. Nyoro is usually studying at the House of Science. Pochi tends to go the House of Gaming to try out new games. Tattsun, as Electro Ranger Black, can be seen going to the Grand United Alliance of Good's Toku Base to show his qualities as a Tokusatsu-based hero.
- When a lot of deities heard about Pochi and Nyoro's interest in one another, there was plenty of gossip among them. This relationship attracted the positive attention of Kosmo and Nova, another human and robot pairing who fell in love with each other, even for all their faults. Then there is also WALL•E and EVE, two robots that fell in love with one another, who also felt fond of Pochi and Nyoro getting together. Zenyatta saw their relationship as proof that robots can live alongside humans. There were plenty of deities who liked seeing the memory of Pochi being kissed on the cheek by Nyoro, though Mowchan wasn't quite happy with this since he was also attracted to Nyoro, curling up into an iron ball while being comforted by the other members of the Go-Getters Club.
- Fellow gamers 9-Volt And 18-Volt became quick friends with Pochi, introducing Pochi to many games developed by Nintendo. One time they accidentally pick up his game console thinking it was their own, and although Recyho has become self-aware, the console still controls him remotely, leading to some hilarious moments. The two gamers would feel bad after realizing what the "console" actually and actually apologized to Pochi and Reycho for their actions, with the two quickly sweeping it under the rug, though Pochi still makes sure to disconnect the controller to Reycho to avoid repeating this incident.
- The Club understandably don't like Junko Enoshima due to how she ruined her school as well as the world for fun, noting that her overall goal is the exact opposite of MAIK's. Junko on the other hand is pragmatic enough to not target the kids directly, considering how they managed save humanity's emotions in their world, and emotions are what cause her to feel pleasure from despair. Because of this, Junko prefers to stay in the background and manipulate events to get them to face beings capable of erasing emotion, like Nerose Satanael.
- Speaking of Nerose, the Go-Getters Club strongly oppose his methods to make a better world, stating that being happy at the cost of free will is barely any better than getting rid of emotions entirely. As they state, all emotions have a purpose are necessary to be human, so only having one specific emotion over everything else means they aren't truly human. Unfortunately for them, Nerose is far more powerful than MAIK, so they will need some help and well-thought out plan, and it's only because Nerose sees the children as naive that he isn't targetting them.
- The House of Emotion, especially the emotions that dwell within Riley's psyche, show great respect for the Club after they helped restore humanity's emotions. They were also greatly surprised to find out that a souless machine like Reycho managed to become self-aware, which led them to praising the Club's strong friendship together in making that possible. Mesprit, the Legendary Pokémon representing emotion, also praises the Go-Getters Club for their heroic deeds in saving their world's emotions, and her fellow Guardians Uxie and Azelf were also impressed by Reycho's loyalty to the club to the point of becoming self-aware.
- The Straw Hat Pirates were a team of True Companions whose love for their ship caused the Going Merry to develop a spirit of loyalty towards them, though it soon meet their destruction. Reycho ends up being a foil to the Going Merry in several ways, in that Reycho was destroyed and rebuild first before becoming self-aware, and he actually gets to live instead of dying. The Straw Hats praised the Club for their strength and friendship allowing them to stay together and even save each other in the worst of times.
- The one sore spot that the members of the Go-Getters Club share (except for Reycho) is being reminded of the time they kicked Pochi out for being The Mole despite him helping them throughout their adventure. The Club is notably ashamed of themselves, even though Pochi has forgiven them and instead feels sorry for lying to them in the first place. Notably, a lot of villains want to use this to their to taunt the Club for being a terrible friend to Pochi, even when the latter puts a stop to it.
- The Iron Giant quickly became friends with Reycho, Pochi, and Yuki after learning of their origins as robots created by MAIK yet rejecting their plans for humanity and becoming friends and allies to them instead. The three in turn were stunned by the giant robot at first but became quick friends with him after seeing how gentle and peaceful he is. Reycho in turn saw the Giant as a kindred due to how they Grew Beyond Their Programming and became self-aware due to their friendship with humans.
- Exclusive to Reycho:
- Reycho, ever since he became self-aware, has met and befriended other robots that Grew Beyond Their Programming and/or became more human as a result. Robo, Android 16, and the Vision were robots created to hurt humans or specific targets, but grew to become friends with humanity instead. Bastion grew fond of Reycho due to growing independent of MAIK's will and becoming his own person. Android 16 notes that even though he still feels compelled to kill Goku, his desire to protect life outweighs his programming and leads him to cooperate with Goku instead, leading him to admit that Reycho may be superior to him in that regard since he started out as a blank slate.
- Exclusive to Vanilla:
- Vanilla found a kindred spirit in Raj due to the fact they both like to eat marshmallows, to the point it's their Trademark Favorite Food. Raj has invited Vanilla and her friends to Camp Kidney to roast marshmallows from time to time. Vanilla has shown eagerness to do so.
- Vanilla is not fond of Gozer, mainly for taking the form of a marshmallow mascot in order to destroy Earth. She likes them even less after learning of how they created minions based on the marshmallow mascot, most of whom are willing to kill and cook themselves, something that disturbs even her. Gozer in turn only sees her as a lesser being with an interesting power.
- Exclusive to Pochi:
- Pochi is an X-Type, someone who can make contact the Otherworlder (in his case, he can actually speak to and hear the Otherworlder), allowing him to gather information from other timelines. He uses this ability to learn of a timeline where he and his friends were killed, allowing him to make a different choice to get his friends out of danger. The Otherworlder was also able to help Pochi pinpoint Vanilla's location when her life is in danger, leading the Go-Getters Club back to the place where there adventure started. This allowed Pochi to meet with other deities with similar powers to be aware of alternate timelines.
- Sans, who is aware of other timelines and the existence of an Anomaly who can SAVE and LOAD to alter the flow of time, has been depressed and lazy due to the fact that the timeline resets everytime and renders his efforts All for Nothing. Because of this, the most he can resort is try to be as an unfair to the Anomaly as possible to get them to Rage Quit. Pochi is genuinely sympathetic towards Sans' plight, but still notes that he's able to at least enjoy the time he's got thanks to Frisk's efforts from a more benevolent Anomaly.
- Clockwork has been nothing but congragulations to give to Pochi for being able to create a secure timeline, noting how much Pochi reminds him of Danny when he saw the potentially Bad Future he could take and instead choose a better path. Pochi in turn is honored by Clockwork's praise and hopes Danny will finally be able to avoid his Bad Future compeltely.
- Mr. Resetti once upon a time would have yelled at cheaters who would Save Scum, but in case of those who do it for benevolent purposes, he just simply gives them a warning to be careful. Now, Mr. Resetti seems to actually support the reset button, believing it could help fix some screw-ups someone made in life. Pochi's case was a good example of this as it allowed him to avoid leading his friends to their deaths.
- The Doctor is rather cordial with Pochi, noting his Leaning on the Fourth Wall abilities help him to prevent dangerous futures. Pochi is rather perplexed by the Time Lord's eccentrics but is honored to meet someone like him all the same. The Doctor has offered the Go-Getters Club trips through time and space on the TARDIS.
- Meanwhile, other more malicious deities with world-ending plans may fear he could spill their secrets if the otherworlder learned of the plot and was able to communicate it to Pochi. Dark Danny has dealt with something similar, getting annoyed by interferences from Clockwork, and intends to find a way to destroy Pochi in a timeline where his power cannot benefit him. Boris the Animal sees Pochi as the biggest threat to his plans after learning of his powers as an X-Type, seeking to destroy his connection to the Otherworlder to prevent any interference.
- Pochi is genuinely sympathetic towards Flowey after hearing of his past, especially after he managed to temporarily regain his soul and emotions and has to give that up to free monsters from the Underground. He hopes that the Otherworlder will be able to give him information that could permeantly restore Flowey to his original self as Asriel. Flowey in turn is cynical of Pochi's approach, considering that he has a similar power but hasn't found any solution at all.
- Pochi has met other deities who interacted with Insert Name Here, namely Monika, White Face, and Niko. He got along very well with Niko and became good friends with them, since the two were kind-hearted people who can communicate with Insert Name Here, though Pochi hearing about Niko's Crisis of Faith leads him to sympathize with the child. Meeting White Face and experiencing his power his power firsthand filled Pochi with so much dread that Pochi tries to keep himself and his friends away from him as much as possible. When Pochi heard about Monika and what she's done to her fellow Literature Club members for the sake of meeting the player, he's understandably disturbed, but does feel some sympathy for her due to how she reacted to being in a game. While she's no longer causing trouble, Pochi still remains conflicted about her.
- Pochi is an X-Type, someone who can make contact the Otherworlder (in his case, he can actually speak to and hear the Otherworlder), allowing him to gather information from other timelines. He uses this ability to learn of a timeline where he and his friends were killed, allowing him to make a different choice to get his friends out of danger. The Otherworlder was also able to help Pochi pinpoint Vanilla's location when her life is in danger, leading the Go-Getters Club back to the place where there adventure started. This allowed Pochi to meet with other deities with similar powers to be aware of alternate timelines.
- Exclusive to Nyoro:
- Nyoro tends to visit the House of Science due to her love for the subject. There she gets along with scientists that take up residence in the house, especially the likes Professor Utonium (who reminds her of her father), Dexter, Jimmy Neutron, Lewis Anthnio (all boy geniuses in the making who can create complicated gadgets), and Senku Ishigami (a young scientist who also woke up in a different world and had to survive in it, albeit without complicated machines). Because of her expertise in science and mathematics, as well as her determination (her catchphrase is "I'll never give up!", and the one thing that'll rile her up is someone saying give up), Nyoro is considered an honorary member of the House of Science, and thus is welcomed anytime.
- Exclusive to Mowchan:
- Mowchan has taken a part-time job in the House of Food, working alongside other chefs such as Gordon Ramsey, Toriko, Komatsu Sanji, and Ignis. Sanji has heard of Mowchan's crush on Nyoro and has encouraged him not to give up on winning her heart, even if Pochi has her affections instead. Komatsu quickly became friends with Mowchan, offering to teach how to make gourmet meals and listen to the "food's spirit" to better prepare them.
- Exclusive to Chuko:
- Chuko came to see Stella as a kindred spirit and Cool Big Sis, mainly because of their fiery tempers and their relationship with their crushes. The two girls tend to hang out with each other, discussing their lives and their relationships, with Chuko showing surprise about Stella's growth as a person and wondering if she'll change like that growing up.
- Exclusive to Tattsun:
- Tattsun having always been a fan of Sentai shows, got to become one in life as a result of awakening his Buddy Skill. Because of this, Tattsun was overjoyed to meet the Power Rangers, Kamen Riders, and Super Sentais. He can usually be found in the Toku Base of the GUAG, speaking with other Sentai heroes and practicing his moves with them.
- Exclusive to Kansai:
- Kansai has befriended fellow baseball batters like The Scout/Jeremy and Junpei of S.E.E.S. The latter two have invited Kansai to some diners and practice baseball. However, Kansai would soon cross paths with Dokuro Mitsuki, actually showing fear when she attacks perverts (real or imangined) with gruesome violence. Hearing that she does this constantly to a boy she likes while resurrecting him every time actually unsettles him, noting that Chuko, abrasive as she may be, would never resort to such things.
- Exclusive to Pai:
- Being the granddaughter of a Shinto Priest, Pai is able to ghosts or other spirits cannot see. This allowed her to meet and befriend ghosts from the House of Ghosts, namely Casper, Reimi, and Yuyuko. Of course, Pai has also come across more terrifying ghosts such as Hisako, Sadako, and Kayako, all of whom have tried to kill her for their own reasons. Half-Ghosts like Danny Phantom and Erma Williams have earned Pai's confusion and curiosity, especially in the latter's case since she has a ghost mother and human father.
- Becomes close friends with Erica Fontaine after the two saw many of their similarities. The two kind-hearted girls take the time to discuss their interests and hang out together in the Pantheon. Erica also picks up Pai's crush on Aniki and shows herself to be quite supportive, even if her attempts to help are clumsy.
- Exclusive to Aniki:
- Aniki got along very well with Beat due to their loyalty towards their younger sisters, which also led him to befriend Neku since they also suffered from a past traumatic event involving a close person in their lives dying by a car, leading them to close themselves off before their friends can open them up again. This has helped Aniki to start opening his horizons slowly over time, especially when Pai starts encouraging him. A lot of deities have compared Aniki and Pai's relationship with Neku and Shiki's (with the exception that it's only implied the latter pair's case) and actually think the two look good together.
- Exclusive to Jennu:
- Jennu tends to go to the House of Theatre and Spectacle due to her love of the Hosekizuka Troupe (her world's equivalent of Takarazuka Revue. She is very passionate of the Troupe to the point she gushes if someone else knows about it and will pick fights with anyone who insults it.
- Shows great sympathy for Ken due to the fact he held resentment for someone he blamed for a loved one's death, only to move on and find peace with that person. Jennu was saddened after hearing of how Ken's mother was killed by accident and the killer was willing to accept being killed by Ken, only to end up saving Ken at the cost of his life, leading Ken to honor his memory instead. Ken admits he finds himself envious of Jennu, since she was able to save Niyan despite her resentment and actually find peace with her sister's death, admitting he wish he could save Shinjiro and find peace with it.
- Exclusive to Yuki:
- Became good friends with Iris.EXE and Roll, the two girls being allies of humanity and kind-hearted robots who quickly accepted Yuki as a friend. Iris in particular found Yuki to be a kindred spirit, both being a Literal Split Personality of an A.I. that went against their purpose, both wanting to be friends with specific people and showing their compassion for others. Yuki was saddened to hear that Iris sacrificed herself to save people's lives, but Iris was content with the decision if it meant preventing more destruction, and instead encourages Yuki to be happy she gets to live and be with her friends.
For the Balan Wonderworld quartet, Sunny distracts himself with his own imagination to cope with him accidentally murdering his sister Mari. Omori is the personification of his avoidance of the truth, and it takes him a great amount of effort to confront the truth and move on. Otherwise
for both profiles
Are these two ready to go up?

- To guard his labs when Mega Man inevitably breaks in to confront him, Dr Wily uses a number of robots. Perhaps the most unique robot, if you can even call it that, is the Yellow Devil. A Blob Monster who assaults its foes by shifting its mass, the behemoth is notorious for being a tough boss and has many variations. However the Yellow Devil has a consistent Achilles' Heel: its eye. This is especially apparent with electric or fire attacks, which it is weak to. The success of the design has seen variants of the Yellow Devil made well into the future, but the Yellow Devil was the OG.
- The mighty Yellow Devil was nostalgic to many deities in the Trope Pantheon, and this is because it used to be part of the group. Wily retired it at the time because he was trying to give it a One-Winged Angel form as the Chaos Devil, rather than combine Chaos in a Fusion Dance, but he gave up and just brought the Yellow Devil back with some programming patches. These included stopping the Yellow Devil from freezing if electric, fire or time-stop was used, and preventing it from being reprogrammed to good. Apparently George has a Yellow Devilnote who was reprogrammed to become a good guy. Nate as he's known is also able to take a humanoid shape, and can bond with robots. Wily has sworn one day to replicate this in the next model.
- With the nostalgia of the Yellow Devil came another emotion in the House of Gaming: fear, and for good reason-it's one of the hardest bosses in its franchise. And yet legend has it the Shadow Devil is even harder. Being the OG Devil, Wily felt it was more fitting to bring it back and as mentioned he has given the beast anti-glitch propaganda to prevent Good Bad Bugs from being exploited. In joy at this buff, the Yellow Devil went on a rampage in the Hall of Cheats and Glitches to avenge itself for all the times players exploited glitches to defeat it. However the monster soon found it had bit off more than it could chew as its single eye was not prepared for the visual glitches Missingno could inflict. Though not harmed, it was dazed long enough for Vinny to exploit deeper glitches and hacks to overcome the new programming, leaving to the Yellow Devil's defeat.
- The Yellow Devil may be unconventional in the looks part, but it has a few things in common with the Classical Cyclops; its big, mean, not a big thinker and a mighty giant. Odysseus was immediately on the alert when he heard the Yellow Devil had returned, as it reminds him of Polyphemus; a son of Poseidon who ate many of his men and tried to eat him. The Yellow Devil is at least aware of how Odysseus defeated the cyclops, which is why it will try to crush the Greek hero with its foot. Initially it wanted to squeeze him to death with its fist, but its weakness to the Hard Knuckle led to jokes that it could be beaten with a fisting and that enrages the monster.
- The Yellow Devil could be compared to the Golem: through the eye in the middle, it animates an unknown but hard-hitting and semi-liquid substance. When asked if this was intentional, Wily replied "it's not meant to represent anything in particular, but I guess golem is the closest thing to it". This got Wily's gears turning and made him think "what if I actually HAD a golem on my side?" On that note, the Yellow Devil was sent to capture Regigigas and force the beast to reveal the secrets of the Regi construction...or failing that, scan enough about the legendary golems so he can make an Ice, Rock and Steel Devil. Initially the Yellow Devil had the upper hand, but Regigigas endured enough to turn the tables on the Yellow Devil once Slow Start wore off.
- Has been seen interrupting fights outside of Wily's lab. The sheer amount of annoyance it's been bringing to these matches has made it one of the most hated deities among the Smashers. One Smasher that has caught its attention is Link, whose experience with dealing with similar bosses has made him one of the best solutions to deal with it. A Link look-alike, the infamous Creepypasta BEN, was intrigued by the trouble the Yellow Devil caused. He saw the dread that comes with facing a notorious boss like the Yellow Devil, and believes with his own fearful legacy they could profit working as a team. No-one knows why, and that's better. Wily tried to get an answer from his Devil on why they were hanging out, but only got BUMO BUMO!.
- The beast isn't trusted by Ms. Fortune. Asides from a general servitude to the forces of evil, its own ability to detach and weaponize pieces of itself makes it a rival of sorts to her own Detachment Combat. After harassing her in the Hall of Unorthodox Combat the Yellow Devil listed two other deities as higher on its enemy list than her: the New Kid, and the Numemon line. The reason? It feels humiliated when fighting those who use farts or poop as a weapon. It would rather take its chances in the Hall of Electricity than suffer any indignant defeat. Or Magneto for that matter; while in the games the "yellow" part's composition is unknown, the best evidence suggests its a ferromagnetic gel and thus suspectible to Magnetism Manipulation. Which again, is less humiliating in defeat that even fighting weaponized Toilet Humor for the Devil.
- Being a legendarily difficult boss, Baal is amused by the frustration the Yellow Devil gives to its enemies, though feels the Yellow Devil is too simple to ally with. Other Demons tend to be ambivalent to the Yellow Devil, and a tiny bit dissapointed that it has nothing to do with actual devils. The Cacodemons seem to gravitate towards it though, likely due to their simple nature combined with the eye being a major focus. The Doomslayer initially mistook the Yellow Devil for some new demon, and as the Yellow Devil is a big monster causing trouble he's not going to not fight it now.
- Some have argued that whatever the Yellow Devil is counts as a Blob Monster. The Blob seems to think so, but how the Yellow Devil discerned this is a mystery as even when only speaking "BUMO" it only says "W" or "Guruguru". Dr Wily theorizes this is more an alliance of convenience and an interest the two have in each other for their apparent similarities. The Yellow Devil is also interested in Fuhrer King Bradley, as his eye is his ace in the hole rather than its eye. The Yellow Devil itself interests Bob the Fish; being such a pathetic boss, he can't help but wonder if he could request Wily to loan the Yellow Devil out for him as protector. Wily has turned this invitation down, musing "I think the Yellow Devil's acting a bit too curious nowadays".
- Ridley is also amused by the beast, as the Devil series being re-used and remixed across the years and centuries reminds him to how he comes back over and over in different forms. As the Yellow Devil isn't much of a thinker, the dragon decided to suggest something that may be worth its while: Green Lanterns are historically weak to yellow. Key word being "historically"-Ridley was bored and wanted to see how the Devil would deal with them. After Kyle shoved a Green Lantern stake in his eye, the Yellow Devil ran away. It tends to keep away from them, but it was interested in the Sinestro Corps and thought it may be feared enough to get a ring. Sinestro would laugh if that was a thing he did, as he doesn't count "gamers' frustrations and dread" as even close to being worthy of the fear a member of his Corps needs.

- When making his original brand of Robot Masters rather than just stealing some for his plans, Dr Wily considered a new type of method of attack his Robot Masters could have-stuff floating as a shield that could also be used as an offense. Wood Man was made with the power to turn his leaves into a moving shield that could also be flung at the opponent. Other Robot Master designers would use this blueprint, and when Wily feels like not doing the leg-work of making a new Robot Master he has a habit of stealing them. Wily has personally made two more Robot Masters with this power; Star Man and Junk Man.
- Applies to all of them
- The introduction of the three different Robot Masters under one trope was Dr Wily wanting to show off his genius, under the pretense of "variety is good for the Trope Pantheon". People knew he was motivated by the former, but also liked the official point he made. Like most of his Robot Masters Wood, Star and Junk Man aren't evil persay, but are Just Following Orders. Star Man and Roll outright get along because he's a big fan of hers. They still oppose Mega Man though due to their orders. And like all Wily-bots Bass has a hard time working with them as he considers all other creations of Wily as somewhat of an affront to his ego and getting in the way of his rivalry with Mega Man. Junk Man is usually the diplomatic one of the three when trying to get on Bass's good side, since they used to team up with one another. Among Wily's loyal Robot Masters, each prefers to team up with the one from their own games: Wood Man with Quick Man, Star Man with Gyro Man and Junk Man with Spring Man.
- In his legendary team-up with Dr Eggman, Wily had pretty much all Robot Masters he ever controlled on his side to oppose both his and Eggman's worlds. As such, Wood, Star and Junk Man don't get along with Eggman's foes/Sonic and friends either. Again, this is more to do with their programming and they don't have any real animosity to Sonic and friends. The only person all three are united in true hatred is Ra Moon, which is completely unsurprising given their past history and Ra Moon's horrid personality. Also, while they don't hate Kirby they don't really like the pink hero as Kirby's ability to inhale and absorb enemies reminds them of Mega Man's copy abilities they have to deal with whenever Wily summons them.
- As they aren't "main characters" they haven't really interacted much with Bob and George, especially Junk Man. However Star Man remembers the former had bossed him around in other world, and later on he was part of a Robot Tournament. There he held Popularity Power However he was defeated by a more popular Robot Master, Shadow Man, in the tournament and was first thwarted by the communist Ran Cossack by being blacklisted. Given the general craziness they seem to bring they've made a decision not to fight the two. Wood Man was especially adamant they don't since he's weak to Bob's pyrokinesis, and Junk Man doubled down as he's weak to George's electrokinesis.
- Applies to Wood Man
- Wood Man is one of Wily's more unorthodox Robot Master designs, and he takes pride in that: he is a robot made out of wood...somehow. He was the first to use an Orbiting Particle Shield, that being a Leaf Shield, and initially ascended with it on his own. However Wily wanted an excuse to add more Robot Masters, and Wood Man liked the company. He's actually pretty nice when he's not fighting for evil, unless you're someone like Ragnaros who brings fire to the forest...or you make innuendos about his name. He didn't get the innuendos at first and he's not happy with it now. He also doesn't get along with Al'Akir for that matter because of his weakness to funnel clouds.
- While the three Robot Masters are only evil because they're following Wily's orders, the environmentalist Wood Man tends to reach out more to heroic deities than the other two. As much as his programming allows he hopes that if Wily ever has/lets him have a Heel–Face Turn, he can work with Captain Planet to protect nature and the forest. Poison Ivy is more willing to work with him given she's at best an anti-hero and she loves plants more than he does. Despite serving evil, Smokey Bear has zero problems working with Wood Man because the latter has everything to gain by prevent forest fires.
- He dislikes Rotom who keeps trying to hijack him and messes with his garden in Mow Form. In his frustration of Mow Rotom ruining yet another backyard, he decided to mess credits of SiIvaGunner's albums by somehow turning himself into a virus and infecting SiIva's computer. After being done messing with SiIva's computer, he then tried to catch Nozomi for the voice, but quit and teamed up with Robbie Rotten to catch superheroes. SiIvaGunner doesn't really mind him though, thanks to mm2wood becoming a fan favorite meme. In fact, SiIva sometimes lets him have control of the channel for a day or two.
- To an extent Wood Man is an evil tree, which got Exdeath's attention. He was curious, but Wood Man was scared as he knows what Exdeath wants. Wood Man loves nature, and while a plant there's NOTHING natural about Exdeath. The Robot Master is a lot more interested in "natural" plant elementals. These include Treebeard, an actual walking, talking tree, Shaymin who has power over petals and flora, and Swamp Thing who is a defender of the Green and plants. Wood Man would love to be part of the Green one day, but as he's a) still a robot and b) works for Wily this dream won't get off the ground.
- Applies to Star Man
- The vainglorious Star Man was part of Wily's "frame Proto Man" plan. Designed for space exploration he's optimal in low-gravity conditions, and he possesses Star Power. He initially petitioned to ascend singularly as Wood Man once did, but Aurelion Sol was considered far more appropriate given he MAKES stars. Star Man has still tried to argue he's more deserving and has taunted the Star Forger. Fortunately for him, Aurelion Sol doesn't even notice. Star Man has a similar one-sided rivalry towards Rosalina and the Lumas, who further aggravated him by pointing out that what he's using technically aren't stars.
- The place he took over is a satellite base. However he doesn't let what he took over go to waste, being in charge of supervising and remodeling it. To his horror, the telescope revealed Planet Remina in the distance. This was during one of its rampages the Trope Pantheon has to deal with once in a while, but it made Star Man a bit scared of being in space. The C'tan also disturb him as among other traits, they feed and poison on stars. In order to feel more secure he went after the living star Ristar, seeking to somehow gain his power for his own...and being the egotistical Star Man, he wanted to prove he was better than Ristar. It didn't go anywhere and Wily admonished Star Man as all he'd done is given him another enemy.
- Star Man's no Gemini Man level of narcissist, but he's certainly one of the most vain Robot Masters Wily made. For start he regards himself as an ardent romanticist and dreams of traveling the stars with a lover. He even has a spare rose for any suitors. His attempt to pick up chicks hasn't worked out, not helping matters being that he asked Johnny Bravo for advice. While it could be a refusal to admit he made a mistake, Star Man is still sticking with him so they can give each other tips in being cool. Wily thinks that Star Man wants to be the Noble Male to Johnny's Roguish Male, and also thinks this is all ridiculous since Star Man is a battle robot yet a Casanova Wannabe. Of course, he's the one who made him so...
- Star Man enjoys the limelight, which is why he goes to try and prove himself in the Media, Popularity and Theatre Houses. Dr Wily encourages Star Man make a positive spectacle of himself, as he previously had him work with the other MM5 Robot Masters in an amusement park as a part-time gig in order to make money. It was a stunt Star Man did for Wily, but found himself genuinely enjoying it. He enjoyed it so much he decided to make his own amusement park, and looked for Moon Man and Bender for mascots; the former because he wanted a moon to complete the night sky theme, and Bender because he heard he was funny. Star Man was horrified at how racist Moon Man was, and he had made the mistake of picking the meme version over the original. Bender wasn't nearly as appalling, but Star Man booted him out for being too crass for his liking.
- Applies to Junk Man
- Looking like Frankenstein's Monster, Junk Man is a robot based off recycling old parts. It's through this that is able to pay off some of his expenses. Despite being literally made of junk, Junk Man's a cunning economist and he takes after his creator in being a Mad Scientist. Despite not being part of Wily's entourage the Robot Master has taken a liking to Cave Johnson due to his views on science. Despite being a robot Junk Man loves himself junk food, which doesn't help with the bad breath he already gets working with the trash. Much as he doesn't like GIR's stupidity, he enjoys binging on junk food with him. However he's as disgusted by raw garbage as everyone else.
- Because of his intelligence and Frakenstein monster-like design, he tends to get along well with Frankenstein's Monster himself. And as a robot associated with junk, Junk Man finds WALL-E adorable in how he processes, recycles and cleans up the world. During one of his repurposing of old machine parts he had briefly gotten the attention of Ennard/Molten Freddy, who went on its way after losing interest in Junk Man's "interesting aesthetic". The Robot Master hasn't, as he's continually baffled by how Ennard/Molten Freddy can even function as a robot and really wants to know why. Wily can guess why, and he admits to also wanting to know why.
- Despite, well, everything about him, Junk Man is in an agreement with Wood Man in not liking Hexxus. Seems ironic at first, until you remember he believes in recycling materials to re-use. He even had his position in the Trope Pantheon recycled! He doesn't like Mr Burns either, and as an economist he disagrees with a number of his business practices. That said, unlike Wood Man his environmentalism is for the sake of practicality so don't think he's being nice; his fight with the Dung Defender was a case of him still be antagonistic. However the robot still sold it as being slighted, since the Dung Defender's trips through the sewer line led him into Junk Man's lair and they fought because Junk Man didn't like the stink he broughtnote
- Junk Man made the mistake of getting into an altercation with Wolverine as he mistook him for fellow MM7 Robot Master and friend Slash Man. Wolverine replied "feel I should sue him, bub", and Junk Man being angry at this statement led to him trying to capture the mutant in some vain hope that Wily could study him and build an Adamantium Man. Though Wolverine eventually slashed him apart, the Trash Talk between them did reveal an interested anecdote: don't bother with Magneto. Research revealed that like Junk Man Wolverine is weak to Magneto's magnetic powers...and in one altercation, Magneto ripped the adamantium out of him, which very nearly killed Wolverine. Junk Man swiftly wrote down the Master of Magnetism as "someone I should never EVER antagonize".
Repost for ascension.

- David Budd is a Sergeant who served 2 tours with the Royal Albion Regiment in the Afghanistan War. Dealing with severe trauma and psychological issues after his traumatic experiences as a soldier, his worsening mental health led him to separate from his wife and left him with a deep mistrust of politicians, especially ones who voted in favor of the war. Hiding his psychological scars under a cool demeanor, Budd is prone to unpredictable behavior under stress. After returning from his service, he joins London's Metropolitan Police's Royal and Specialist Protection Command and is assigned as the Principal Protection Officer of Home Secretary Julia Montague, whose support of a controversial anti-terrorism bill leaves her with many enemies. As the terrorist threat in London increases and he forms a relationship with Montague, Budd has to choose between his job and ideals.
- Budd was taken aback when he had received an invitation to become a deity in the Tropes Pantheon. Budd, skeptical of such a thing, thought it to be made-up or a trap. Having been vital in stopping the criminal conspiracy and its terrorist activities due to Julia Montague's support of the RIPA 2018 bill, he was vigilant and on edge regarding any revenge attacks by criminal organizations, especially any allies of Luke Aikens, the crime lord who ordered Julia Montague's death. Not wanting himself or especially his family to be harmed, Budd stayed on high-alert for days after receiving the invitation. It was to his complete surprise and skepticism that he was transported to the Pantheon and informed that he was granted the title of God of Ex-Military Police. It took some convincing before Budd was convinced that this was all real. Having begun the occupational health treatment he needed after stopping the criminal conspiracy and amending his family relationships, Budd felt ready for it and accepted the position.
- Budd's ascension was met with lots of celebration and fanfare within the House of Law and Justice. The ascended law enforcers of the House were glad to now have a god representing them who had served in the military. PS Budd was coolly humble about it and was grateful for their congratulations and support. Budd has garnered admiration for his accolades, serving two tours with active combat in the Afghanistan War through the Royal Albion Regiment in the British Army, as well as the dedication to his job as the Principal Protection Officer for Julia Montague, reversing her car through the road after her chauffeur got headshot by a sniper to save her even in spite of his dislike of her policies. In addition, Budd has gained praise for his overcoming of the mental health struggles that veterans like himself face and its effects on their political views and day-to-day lives when they become officers after their service. His ascension has helped bring to the Pantheon's attention the issues of trauma and pro-war policies among war veterans.
- Budd has an interesting relationship with John Watson. An army doctor who was injured in the Afghanistan War, the two veterans were introduced to each other by mutual friends within the Hall of Officers because of their similar military and British backgrounds. The two got along thanks to Watson's natural friendliness, but their conversation took an interesting turn when the topic of adjusting to life after the war was brought up. Watson mentioned that after the war he was undergoing therapy—not for having trouble because of post-traumatic stress, but because he missed the excitement. Budd was in near disbelief when hearing about Watson's longing for the adrenaline rush of war, having nearly had his marriage ruined and suffered from psychological damage due to his PTSD that only began to improve after he finally accepted that he had a problem and willingly went to occupational therapy. Watson wasn't proud of his reckless craving for excitement, especially after Budd brought up his trauma from the war. Now, whenever the two meet, Budd's more serious, somber personality reminds Watson of how he can't help but crave a dangerous lifestyle. Nevertheless, Budd is glad that Watson isn't bound by trauma and using his gifts to help solve crime.
- Continuing his ongoing treatment in his home world before he was chosen for ascension, Budd has been regularly visiting the House of Health and Diseases. There, he's been undergoing cognitive-behavioral therapy to change his pattern of behavior and thinking, which has seen success in Budd's recovery throughout time. At first, he had not been stepping into the House of Military and Warfare to avoid the risk of being triggered and having an episode of flashbacks to his trauma in the war. The constant warfare and combat in the sprawling landscape of the House makes it difficult for Budd to spend a long time there, especially when the House changes into the desert-like regions he fought in in Afghanistan. A trial of a form of cognitive behavioral therapy, exposure therapy, had Budd go visit the House of Military and Warfare and expose him to the triggering stimuli of fighting from afar repeatedly with increasingly longer periods over time, with the goal of desensitizing him. This trial of exposure therapy was successful, and slowly but surely David Budd is recovering from his PTSD.
- Budd noted his uncanny resemblance to Robb Stark. Budd gained some respect for Robb when learning that, despite being a king, he's compassionate, just, and actually fought alongside his bannermen on the frontlines. He was glad to hear that in medieval Westeros, Robb was a ruler who partook in war himself and didn't just order his subjects to risk their lives without doing so himself. With a mistrust for politicians after serving in war, Budd had a low opinion of war hawks, especially those distant from soldiers' struggles. In part, Robb could understand Budd's trauma from the war which left him estranged from his wife, distant with his children, and suffering. The former King of the North was still angry and reeling from the Red Wedding after death, having lost his wife, mother, and own life due to the violation of guest right because he chose to marry the woman he loved instead of following through with an Arranged Marriage and put Honor Before Reason. Budd pitied Robb's cruel end and how his honor led to his death, wishing for the former king to find peace after death.
- Collaborating on a criminal case, Budd met Lin Beifong, police chief of Republic City in her home world and now continuing her duties within the Pantheon. Her uncompromising, tough demeanor reminded Budd of Montague in many ways. But to Budd's mild relief, Lin showed that she didn't have the darker aspects of Montague that made it difficult to work with her but a kind, selfless personality underneath her steely exterior. He was pleasantly surprised to learn that Lin had even stepped down from her position as chief to fight off crime as a vigilante, having a respect for those willing to do the right thing regardless of the rules. Lin, in turn, was disappointed to find out his own commanding officer, Lorraine Craddock, was the one to be the crime syndicate's inside woman in the police force and made Budd the fall guy, hoping a chief would have more self respect. She joked about giving Budd an invitation to join her force if he could metalbend, with Budd reliant on his old-fashioned training to do his job. However, Lin was impressed enough by Budd's competence as a grounded copper and boyfriend, with the chance that they'd work together again out of a mutual respect.
- Budd had a complicated love life before his ascension. He had separated from his wife Vicky due to his PTSD, and later became sexually involved with Julia Montague, the politician he served, despite their differing beliefs after he saves her life and they learned about their similarities — putting their work first and being separated from their spouses. This romance became cut short when Montague was assassinated, with Budd blaming himself for her death. After his wife helps save his life and he begins to get help for his mental health, Budd is hopeful that he can reconcile with Vicky. Not wanting to fail at his second chance when he eventually returns to his world, while in the House of Love and Affection he found help in the Ichiro and Ryoko Sato. Budd didn't expect to get couples counseling help from a duo of students, but their experience in couples counseling within the Pantheon and own history of separation and reconciliation gave the weary officer some insight and more hope that he could restore his marriage.
- Budd's intense hate of Bandos stems not just from him being a malevolent god, but specifically a malevolent god of war. Bandos's glorification of war to his followers and orchestration of warfare all for his own personal warfare disgusts Budd, who detests war due to his traumatic experiences while serving the Royal Albion Regiment in the Afghanistan War. In his life in his original world, he grew to hate politicians like Julia Montague, who advocated for the war that mentally haunted him from his participation in it. Within the Pantheon amongst war deities, Bandos's ideology and actions regarding warfare without any of the honorable qualities of other war gods has earned him the veteran's hate. Bandos, who's made entire races and tribes his playthings as a war god, is unbothered by a Demigod like Budd and, if anything, relishes the fact he's earned his ire and is glad to learn about the negative influence war has had on the traumatized soldier.
- One of the criminals Budd has been investigating since his ascension is Vito Scaletta, a former U.S. paratrooper in World War II who became a high-ranking mobster after his release from jail for serving the Clemente family. Budd was disappointed but not surprised to find out about a fellow veteran ending up in a life of crime, with Budd all too aware of the struggles in employment and mental health soldiers face after returning from war. Regardless, Budd still doesn't think his struggles are an excuse for Scaletta's violent methods. Scaletta, still carrying himself with the conduct of a criminal from the 1950's, continues to live the glamorous life of a 50's mobster contrasting the more grounded, serious Budd as he tries to arrest Scaletta. With his experience in uncovering a criminal conspiracy in his work in London, Budd is surely but slowly cracking down on Scaletta's criminal enterprise. Scaletta is amused by the chase but makes it clear if Budd becomes a problem he won't have any qualms killing him.
- Julia Montague's spearheading of the controversial Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act (RIPA-18) bill, which would have given the British government access to the public's data and internet activity without any judicial review to counter terrorism, put her at odds with Budd at first and eventually led to her death at the hands of a criminal conspiracy that would have been disadvantaged had the bill passed. Budd's opposition to RIPA-18 stemmed from the bill's intrusion of civil liberties and aggressive approach against terrorism, an ideological clash with the veteran after his experiences in the war on terror. For this reason, he detests the extreme of surveillance that Big Brother goes to, whose monitoring through hidden cameras and microphones to create an oppressive regime disgusts Budd, a firm believer in civil liberties. Having now seen the extreme of an intrusive regime, Budd is a vocal critic of the dictator's ideology. Unbeknownst to him, Big Brother is watching to make sure the former bodyguard doesn't cause him any problems.
- "I've been a soldier, I've been a copper, you get to spot a bloke whose word is his bond."

Ludwig Von Tökkentäkker has Repulsive Ringmaster. CrimsonShark has an idea to give Artistic License – Paleontology to Rudy.
There is another trope for her, Savage Spinosaurs. While not actually a Spinosaurus, she is a Baryonyx, another Dino covered by that trope. I know it’s currently taken, but the current god could be moved to Spinosaurus Versus T. rex, since that trope is a Stock Parody of his movie, making the Spinosaurus the Trope Codifier be default.
I'm conflicted on the spinosaur debacle. The Spinosaurus may as well be the Trope Codifier for both of the tropes that have been listed, but it's difficult to see it lose that one trope that it made + made Spinosaurus a Stock Dinosaur. Oh well, I guess I'll wait and see what others think about the trope change. Though I do think Rudy is a pretty good example of Savage Spinosaurs.

Oh, and I'm sorry, but even with the exaggerated label, I'm not on board for Queen having Artistic License – Paleontology. Maybe it's just me, but I'd rather prefer these sort of tropes to be given to figures whose works focus on dinosaurs or other prehistoric animals as the main subject matter, which One Piece, well, isn't.

WHERE IS KRYPTO, I mean, WHERE IS THE DOG!!!I’d argue that Queen is the most blatant example of such a trope as Artistic License - Paleontology. Pardon the One Piece Spoilers, but as the Onigashima Raid commenced we got a series of continuous jokes on impossible saurian biology. This all builds up to Queen in the end, who does multiple things for a Brachiosaur that’s just plain wrong, culminating in the audacious claim that the dino is a snake, and that the body is detachable!
Queen represents the climax of this build up, and is such very much a great representation of the trope. Hence, his ascension as a Deity.
Edit: It has come to my attention that you were referring to Rudy with that she, not Queen. My bad on that front.

The Scrappy of the Trope Pantheon, God of Thumps
Well you might as well throw King to that too since King’s a pterodactyl wearing bondage gear while on fire and shooting out lasers from his mouth. Also, thinking maybe if Dinosaurs Are Dragons arent taken, you can place the Toppi Ronppi too with that.
So still going to ask for Johan but actual world dominator.

Pantheon server for all who click here. Lost too much money and time, this coaster ain’t stopping.

That's one well designed profile for the legendary king of the pirates I give you that.
My mind is an enigma; nobody knows what I'm thinking of next!
