Ursula and Octogeddon are octopi. Ariel is a mermaid who loves humans, became human to live on the surface and fell in love with a human named Eric. Team Rocket pulls off plenty of Paper Thin Disguises. Perry the Platypus' spy outfit is just a hat, but no one can see the connection between the hatted spy and the pet platypus.

@Dood: Kasen Ibaraki also has trouble with her disguise as a Taoist Hermit Guru because she quite literally doesn't know what she's disguising as, despite her best efforts to make it seem like it.

The Tablet of Ahkmenrah is up

Looking for advice: I am speculating who might fit Not His Sled. Given it's somewhat of an adaptation trope, if it goes to a character would it go to the adaptation that subverts the twist, or should it be the original and their adaptation that subverts the twist?

Can I post Dragonlord here now? The draft is finished

It's a new page and a day has passed, so you're free to post his profile again.

Here it is, meanwhile I will begin to work on the Mimic (Dragon Quest)

"I am the Dragonlord, master of masters, king of kings! Long have I awaited this moment. Come! Take thy rightful place at my side! Do so, and I will grant unto thee dominion over half the world!"

The Dragonlord, Dark God of Offering Co-Rulership (King of Kings, Master of Masters, the Once and Future King of Darkness, Incarnation of Evil, Dracolord, King Dragon)

• The son of the Dragon Queen, the Dragonlord stole the Sphere of Light and used it to engulf the kingdom of Alefgard in darkness, while also kidnapping Princess Gwaelin to be locked up in a cave. He would then control an army of monsters to bring Alefgard to his knees. However, he would later be confronted by the Scion of Erdrick. Despite transforming into a powerful dragon form, Dragonlord would be slain.
  • In an alternate universe, the Scion of Edrick made the fatal decision to accept the Dragonlord’s offering of ruling half of the world with him. However, the Dragonlord simply locked him up in a small castle called Half of the World before coating Alefgard in darkness. He would also use a spell to remove the ability to create from humans, which he saw as a merciful act, given how he believes the ability to create runs counter to fate itself. In response, the local deity Rubiss had an emissary, Bildrick, journey across the land, striving to restore humanity’s ability to create and build. Even when faced by the Dragonlord themselves, the builder used their gained powers to end the Dragonlord's reign, thus returning humanity's gift of creation.
• Having heard of the Pantheon, the Dragonlord hatched a plan to ascend to it. Having snuck into its confines under the cover of night, he offered half of the domain to an unknown god in exchange of Dragonlord’s ascension. Inevitably, one of them foolishly accepted the Dragonlord’s deal. With the foolish deity yet to be identified (or seen again), the Dragonlord became free to terrorize the Pantheon as they wished. While the gods would've preferred to banish the sorcerer for his trickery, due to the offer having legitimate value, they begrudgingly allowed them to stay.
• Once Bowser heard of Dragonlord’s ascension, they were to make contact with the mage. Having rubbed shoulders with them previously, the two were quick to rekindle their friendship. Inevitably, this led them down the path of creating a shared arrangement between them, in which Bowser lent some of his Goombas to them in exchange for some of his Slimes. Outside of these formal deals, the two has been known to "collaborate" in whisking away the princesses of the Pantheon, using them as ransom to obtain large shares of wealth from their caring allies. Having been especially familiar with these acts, the Mushroom Kingdom and Candy Kingdom's own monarchs swore to aid in protecting any of the less powerful nobility against their intrusion, with their respective champions (Mario for Peach, Finn & Jake for Bubblegum) promising to stand against the wizard's trickery in kind.
• Having gone for long without a master, the Slimes are glad to see one of the Dragonlord's ascension. With many following under their command, the Dragonlord was pleased to find himself quickly in command of a small army. While the Slimes who follow them limit their acts up to mischief and the occasional attempt to thwart heroes, the sudden change in behavior has been worrying for both the gods used to their cheeriness and the more passive slimes among them. In particular, the latter of these groups began to actively patrol their section of the temple with weapons of war, in an attempt to prevent a complete take-over of the Dragonlord's forces. Resenting what he sees as insubordination, the Dragonlord has been known to plot the downfall of the Slimenian slimes, working with other villains to see their forces scattered and weakened. Outraged at his instigation of dividing the once relatively-harmless slimes, Beatrix LeBeau has been known to do what she can to fend off the Dragonlord's sieges with help from some of the braver slimes such as Rocket, tending to the wounded and preaching to the slimes following the Dragonlord why doing as such is a monumentally bad idea.
• Unsurprisingly, the various Dragon Quest heroes were quick to launch counter-offensives against the Dragonlord. While only one of the four heroes actually met the warlock (Nine, who clashed against him within their world's grottos), each of the four knew from the get-go that his conquest required immediate interception. After the angelic being first spotted their temple while flying above the House of Villainy, they were quick to assemble their fellow adventurers and explain the threat in need of stopping. With his worst fears coming to form about the figure he saw escaping following the death of the benevolent Dragon Queen, and with his descendant being the most direct foe of theirs, Arusu was quick to lead the charge of heroes formally against the Dragonlord's occasional acts of tyranny amongst the gods. While these gods have been successful in occasional raids on their temple, they have yet to succeed in regularly barging into the Dragonlord's throne room in full, leading the Dragonlord to happily plot away in the darkest recesses of his stronghold.
  • Once Prince Charmles has heard of one of the dark lord from his world has ascended, he has been cowering under his bed ever since to the point of fleeing in terror after seeing a random slime. While Dragonlord did have plans to attack King of Argonia due to their dragon-hunting tradition, which Dragonlord seen as an insult, his attacks so far were fended off by Eight. But that still didn’t stop Charmles from seeing Dragonlord in his nightmares.
• If his name didn't make things clear, the Dragonlord mainly cares about one thing and one thing only: reigning over all he sees. Due to this, he has made alliances with other evil overlords in the Pantheon for their shared goals. Amongst these gods, the presently draconic stood out to the conjurer as valuable allies, taking special care to work with the draconic-by-transformation Ganondorf and Maleficent and the inherently draconic Galakrond. With their aid, the Dragonlord has been successful in establishing himself within the Pantheon's roster of evil overlords. While he values their presence greatly, there is one god he holds an amount of disappointment with. Even ignoring the obvious fact of his redemption, Vader's complete and abject failure to sway Luke to his side has warranted him to antagonize him in particular. To them, Vader's reputation is completely undercut by his performance as a ruler, rendering them ridiculously unfit for his distinction as one of the Pantheon's most iconic.
  the Dragonlord: "Thou art a fool! What kind of offer didst thee think of, in which parentage is revealed at the slightest err?! Thou might as well told them the color of thy briefs!"
  Vader: "We are over this, Dragonlord. For the last time, my son and I have reconciled. Your schemes will not work, on me, regardless of who you are trying to get me to despise."
  the Dragonlord: "That doesn't leave thee free of my wrath, cur!"
• Given the Dragonlord's stance on creation, he was immediately disgusted to find out that the Pantheon has an entire house dedicated to mankind developing the world about them. To them, the house serves as a black stain on the realm's hide, a repulsive reminder of an ability human gods don't deserve to obtain. As such, the Dragonlord has made repeated attempts to conquer the House of Craft, before sealing it off from the rest of the Pantheon to ensure only gods he personally approves of gets access to its deep resources. While he was first off-put in his human form, the istari Saurman was quick to catch interest to the Dragonlord's desires, eager to convert a section of the house into his personal factory. As such, the two has collaborated in their plan to take the house's confines for their own use, earning him the approval of Sauron.
  • Of particular ire to the Dragonlord, however, is a pair of gods who aren't even members of the house to begin with. While far less smooth than the average wandering hero he's familiar with, the existence of Steve and Alex serves as a blatant insult to the Dragonlord. With their mere existence being an emblem of all he hates about mankind's creative nature, the Dragonlord has attempted on numerous occasions to destroy their residence, even going as far to personally invoke the Wither. Of course, the Wither's blind rage often causes it to attack the mobs he sends as back-up, so when he actively is with his minions, he doesn't even hesitate to teleport away the moment it springs to life. Outside of these things, he has also enlisted the aid of an attack force worth of Creepers and Endermen to siege the House of Craft, with the house's endless plans of development occasionally needing to put on hold when their members temples are suddenly bombarded with explosive mobs or have pieces of their foundations ripped away from it by ethereal hands.
  • His disdain towards human building spreads towards some of their creations, as well. Seeing the more destructive creations as inviting devastation on the world, the Dragonlord finds the existence of evil AI a living confirmation of his philosophy. However, as opposed to immediately striking against them, the Dragonlord has instead been moved to plot instead. Recognizing their shared traits of misanthropy, the Dragonlord has made offers in the past to temporarily team up with them in order to enslave the human gods to their will. Of course, given the Dragonlord 's habits to twist deals into being largely in his favor, much of his offers has yet to be accepted.
• It is said that Dragonlord could further transform in his dragon form, becoming the mighty LordDraco/Neo Dragonlord in turn. Despite it warranting a possible rank increase upon getting stronger, however, this form is something the Dragonlord absolutely despises. Regardless of the power it provides, the mere fact it saps the sanity from him while in it was enough for him to swear off it, actively refusing to transform into it. The fact he would become the mindless pawn of the Potentate of Portals only serves to sour the thought further, with the dragon utterly rejecting the concept of them ever becoming a pawn.
• It wasn’t long before The Dark Dragon requested Dragonlord to be one of his underlings. Dragonlord is quick to reject such offer, as a result The Dark Dragon has launched an attack towards Dragonlord’s Charlock Castle. Dragonlord personally faced him and the two crashes that was so furious that the Charlock Castle was almost destroyed in the cross fire. No one knows the result of the battle, with both sides claiming themselves being the winner of the battle.

• During The Cold War, American and Soviet scientists raced to perfect the science of miniaturization. Neither side knew how to keep something shrunk for more than sixty minutes, but one Soviet scientist, Dr. Jan Benes, discovered how to make it last as long as desired. He defected to the USA, intending to reveal the secret to them, but, predictably, Soviet agents were sent to assassinate him. As Benes lay dying from an externally inoperable bloodclot in his brain, the CMDF decided to put their miniaturization technology to good use; they shrank a submarine and its crew so they'd make their way through Benes' body and operate on the bloodclot from within. The crew's members consisted of brain surgeon Dr. Duval (to perform the prodecure to save Benes), his technical assistant Peterson (to maintain the laser needed for the internal surgery), circulatory specialist Dr. Michaels (to navigate the path through the body), Navy officer Owens (to pilot the submarine), and CIA agent Grant (to watch for sabotage; he also previously helped Benes defect). In the course of this pioneering voyage, Dr. Michaels was discovered to be a traitor trying to sabotage the mission, but despite his attempts to kill Benes and the rest of the crew, he wound up getting consumed by a white blood cell together with the submarine. Benes' brain surgery was ultimately a success and the remaining crew managed to safely return both outside and to their original sizes.

Ms. Frizzle took her class on field trips that involved shrinking and going inside someone elses body to learn about the inside of the body. Mario and Luigi had an entire journey in Bowser's body in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story. Hank Pym/The Ant and Ray Palmer/The Atom can shrink to very small sizes.

@Tadi — Malekith is an Evil Overlord whose preferred mount is a giant black dragon, who are known to be hyperviolent beasts who are hard to control. Unlike most from his villain archetype, his goal of wanting to become the Phoenix King of his old nation is because he honestly believes he's the best ruler and leader they could have in the event the Forces of Chaos invade again.

Otherwise, here's a for the Dragonlord.

— Given their tale and what they've done, they would have some kind of relationship with the House of Health and Diseases. Hypothetically, perhaps they could be tasked with being shrunk down in the hopes of investigating various diseases including cancer, hoping that this could lead to a better understanding of them as well as finding ways to combat or cure them.

Btw, can I make an ascension for Dragon Quest Mimics as Chest Monster? They apparently are the first chest monster that look like a treasure chest. They also have a simple designs, has become a staple monster that keep appearing event since their debuts and is rather popular too as they flat out have a piggybank based on their shape and show up in a lot of crossover too, such as Fortune Street. I will most likely release it few days later

@Tadi: While Chest Monster isn't taken, you do need a more substantial explanation on why the Mimics and Canniboxes deserve the trope.

for the Dragonlord.

@wootzits: Derek Stiles and Angie Thompson are doctors who have dealt with a variety of illnesses, injuries, and other conditions. Kenzo Tenma is a neurosurgeon.

"Beatrix LeBeau has been known to due what she can" should be "do". Other than that, for the Dragonlord.

Fortnite Island, Holy Seat of Battle Royale Game Modes (Reality Zero, the Island)

^{Codename: Apollo} 

^{Codename: Artemis} 

^{Codename: Asteria} 

^{Codename: Helios} 

• Description: An island with many different biomes, where 100-man battle royales are held.
• Symbol:
  • Overall: The Battle Bus◊.
  • Before the new Big Bang: the Zero Point◊.
  • After the new Big Bang: Galaxies with energy tendrils attached in the middle◊.
• Theme Song: Dance Moves
• Alignment: Chaotic Good (with True Neutral trappings)
• Portfolio: Battle Royale Game, Added Alliterative Appeal for various of its points of interest, Expansion Pack World, Merged Reality ("Asteria"), Completely different island every chapter for each new chapter of Battle Royale, Wide Open Sandboxes
• Domains: Adventure, Combat, Weaponry.
• Sacred to: Every single LOOPERS involved in the Island, The Nine Mercenaries, Damon Killian, Scarface, Mephiles, Thor, The various assorted Guest Fighters that have appeared on the Island.
• Unholy to: All Deadly Game participants that haven't appeared on the Island yet.
• With all of the Pantheon Landmarks (and by extension, the Holy Lands Project), there are many battle arenas in the Pantheon, but none that host 100-man Battle Royales, and Fortnite Island was brought in as the Dominion for Battle Royale Game.
• While the Island (codename varies) primarily serves as a training simulation for the non-Loopers, due to the fact that nobody in the "Loop" truly dies in Fortnite, recreational use is also permitted.
• Many events have occurred in the Island’s history, divided into Chapters and several Seasons (Cx Sy for short). Most (if not all) of the major ones can be found (Chapter 1 only) or https://youtu.be/Q_gDxO6bqvE (mostly first 3 chapters) here.
  • In Chapter 1 Season 3 of Fortnite, a shooting star appeared in the sky that later turned out to be several meteors, all of which hit the Island.
  • Think that was enough? In the next season, even bigger meteors hit the Island! Government facilities were built in the crash sites, with one of them hiding an alien cocoon.
    • Later that same season, the cocoon opened as an alien emerged, broadcasting to the entire Pantheon (and on Earth in summer 2018) before setting off a rocket, presumably to get back home. (But not before leaving portals in time.)
  • Soon, various items came out of the portals, and after all cacti in the Island were destroyed, lighting came out of a portal and spawned a giant cube.
  • The giant cube soon began to move, leaving Nordic runes in its path before ending up in Loot Lake, assimilating itself with the water and turning it purple.
  • At the beginning of C1S6, Loot Lake became a Floating Continent, sapping energy from the runes and then moving on to the next.
  • Once the cube reached full power, it sank back into Loot Lake and unleashed a beam of light, sending the Husks across the Island.
  • After five days of nonstop zombie/Husk attacks, the cube set off a giant explosion that reset the entire Island, with Loot Lake being replaced by Leaky Lake in this new universe.
  • In C1S7, a giant iceberg hit the Island, covering a significant portion of it in snow as visitors set up outposts.
  • The iceberg then melted, revealing a castle underneath, releasing the Ice King (no, not that one) from his slumber, and after reaching his full power sent the entire Island into snow.
    • But at the same time, while most of the Island were thawed (leaving a snow biome), a man with Volcanic Veins was released from his icy tomb in the castle, causing a volcano to rise up, C1S8 had begun...
  • Due to the change in landscape Pirates came to the Island in search of treasure, resulting in a Mêlée à Trois between the three factions.
  • One day, the The Men in Black uncovered a vault underneath Loot Lake, and it opening not only revealed a nexus orb named Zero Point for the first time, but also caused the volcano to erupt and destroyed Retail Row and Tilted Towers while a man called Jonesy and a giant banana (which he then turned into a smoothie) fled to an bunker until they managed to get to The Future, where the destroyed areas were rebuilt as Neo-Tilted Towers and a Mega-Mall.
  • Thought we were done with the volcano? Because it awakened a Kaiju that rampaged across the Island until a Humongous Mecha was built to fight it, exposing the Zero Point, which cracked and cracked until it finally broke, sending the Island back in time to the exact moment before C1S4 began… and then some.
  • You know how basically everything tried to destroy Loot Lake in C1S''X''? Well, they were sent by a group called The Seven, who sought to destroy the orb to break the Loop, launching another rocket and making even more time portals before a black hole emerged and sucked in the entire Battle Royale program, it seemed that Fortnite as a game was done with.
    • …Until the mainframe was rebooted, merging our version of the island with another, resulting in a familiar, yet different version of the Island. "Athena" was no more, the new Island, codenamed "Apollo", was free to drop in.
      "I was not alone. Others are outside the loop. This was not calculated. The Nothing is now inevitable."
  • Soon, a group called E.G.O. arrived, setting up safehouses in search of a secret bunker, the new, alternate Island prepared for this and created Evil Knockoffs of the E.G.O. called the Alters, locked in a battle over the mysterious bunker... Come C2S2 and the battle turned into a war between GHOST and SHADOW, which involved Deadpool… and culminated in a powerful device accidentally causing a massive flood in C2S3.
    • And all this turned out to just be the start of Chapter 2, out of a few more chapters that would semi-directly involve much of the entire omniverse…
• To absolutely no-one’s surprise, virtually all Deadly Game participants loathe Fortnite and it’s contemporaries, seeing it as a glorification of their hardships and refuse to go near the simulations. The receptions after they tried the simulations were... mixed.
• As they are Ax-Crazy lunatics that hail from a Denser and Wackier shooter much like Fortnite, The Nine Mercenaries have the time of their lives on the Island, as it lets the mercs shoot the crap out of people while not actually being any danger to the Pantheon.
  • Similarly, The Classic Team enjoys combat on the island, though they only do it to kill time between missions rather than to just kill people like the Modern Team does.
• Damon Killian has been investigating the Island is a potential site for his Revival of The Running Man, which the vast majority of deities agree should be the case, as long as all other sites also have Non-Lethal K.O. mechanics (something Damon does not approve of).
  • Similarly, Scarface has considered using the Island as a hunting ground, as he has joined up with Killian due to sharing a common enemy and his overall Blood Knight demeanor.
• Kilian Experience made a video on Fortnite involving building a staircase to the skies to give the number one spot to someone who rightfully deserved it. In actuality, it turned out to be a Very Special Episode about the dangers of drugs and empathy.
  Kilian: Having empathy for other players? What a loser! So always try your best in a videogame or you will be sucking dick for heroin!
• The gods were suprised to learn that Mephiles and Thor of all people are fans of the simulations, especially since Thanos was featured quite prominently in Fortnite.
  • In light of the last hope of the Jedi during C2S1, Emperor Palpatine broadcasted his message to the galaxy through the simulation, this only alerted the Pantheon to the Emperor’s location and lead the gods to wonder why one of the most infamous villains of all time used a training simulation as a means of drawing attention to himself.
• After the flood of C2S3 ended, Marvel (Reality-616) and DC (Reality-52) deities directly stumbled upon the Island, which eventually complicated things even further, such as Zero Point going haywire throughout C2S5 (only brought in more beings from other realities) and echoed into C2S6 (due to a phenomenon known as Zero Bloom, followed by more wildlife afterwards), the invasion of a faction known as the Last Reality (for the remainder of Chapter 2), flipping "Apollo" to reveal "Artemis" (thus kick-starting the Chapter 3), an all-out war on the island itself in C3S2, and so on...
• As with any good franchise, many have played Follow the Leader to Fortnite and created their own Battle Royale Game, and thus deities from Battlefield, Call of Duty, Fallout, and JoJo's Bizarre Adventure enjoy battle on the Island.
  • It's noted by the Pantheon residents who ever heard of Fortnite that it (surprisingly) took so long for the Island to arrive at the Holy Lands. Those who completed in Battle Royale took interests on the Island and all its incarnations, and so did the likes of Galactus (who once tried to harness the Zero Point in C2S4), the World Warriors and various Shonen Jump deities (due to some of the ascended fighters has grazed the Island at various point since Chapter 2).
• The Island's arrival not only gathered suspicion from all of the Grand United Alliances and other notable deities, but also brought in countless iterations of the Island from past, present and future much to the Pantheonic confusion. (Why can it be another omniversal connection when Trope Pantheons is already omniversal by nature?) Despite the rocket launch has been broadcasted in the entire Pantheon!
  • It didn't help as the Island arrived after The Last Reality's actions at the end of C3S4, paving the way for the Zero Fusion into Chapter 4, which drained away nearly all of the Zero Point energy in the nexus or itself, to the point is petrifying the Nexus orb altogether.
  • After a joint investigation (in a full-blown, apparently never-before-seen alliance between all GUAs), they found out the true nature of the Zero Point: it is a nexus orb that is where all of reality (Pantheon possibly included) apparently sprang from. It cycles through countless realities per second and can be used as an infinite power source or as a bridge to other realities. It appears to have an outer hull/shell surrounding and containing a central core, consisting of dozens of tendrils of pure energy, with the ability to open portals.
    • The discovery caused mass panic among the entire Pantheon, that lasted four roughly 22 minutes (coincidentally the same as an average "Loop" in the Island). The GUAs and co. had to use a Cosmic Retcon-induced relief to calm the entire Pantheon down and reveal the existence of Reality Zero (the Zero Point, its workings, and the Island itself).
  • Deadpool was chosen by the Mythbusters and GUAs and co. as a demonstrator, to see whether if touching the (active) Zero Point in the Pantheon space result in glitching into everywhere in the omniverse, including all over the Pantheon and the entire Dark Multiverse, like has happened before the Island arrived in the Pantheon. The myth was confirmed, as the Merc With a Mouth was briefly teleported to everywhere in existence itself as expected by Fortnite lore, though he's respawned in the House of Health and Diseases. When asked what he witnessed upon the Zero Point, Deadpool made several reference and confrontation about both pop cultures and obscure matters, up to and including the likes of witnessing all of Video Game/ Super Robot Wars all at once, inside famous historical figures' minds throughout both Real Life and Alternate History at lightspeed range, and... being hunted and pursued by the Charter from ''House of Eternal Return''.
  • The Reality Zero discovery made by GUAs and co. has spawned a massive conspiracy theory that the entire Trope Pantheons was, is and will always be just a colossal, continuum-spanning Elseworld to the existence itself, as it shows the those outside Pantheon as well as the non-ascended versions of the Pantheonic residents. None of the alliances have any comment about this.
  • The discovery also spawned rumors of the Dark Multiverse's versions of Reality Zero, that which involves the Island being ruined in one way or another, most notably the corruption or permanent destruction of the Zero Point, and the final victory of the Last Reality coming earlier than in canon. Bruce Wayne of Earth -22 (also known as the Batman Who Laughs) reacted to the rumors by expressing his twisted desire to return to the Island, this time to abuse the Zero Point and with that, awaken the Pantheon's Dark Multiverse, which only cause those who hates him to hate him even further. Though speaking of the "Apollo" incarnation of the Island in actuality, He Who Laughs enjoyed making a killing out of it. He remembered eliminating the hell out of the Loopers there. He Who Laughs remains a contention regardless the Island, which is understandable after what he has done to the DC Multiverse through his antics in and out of the Dark Multiverse.
• The Guest Fighters (i.e. collaborations, promos, etc.) were asked of their experiences with the Island, of which their replies matches that of what was in-game at their time with Reality Zero and co. Alongside Marvel Comics (and by proxy, Marvel Cinematic Universe), DC Comics (and by proxy, The DCU, DC Extended Universe and Series/Arrowverse), Street Fighter and then some, tons of peoples from both real life and fictions, some of which are on the Pantheon, had spoke up differently. Through being on Fortnite did the Guest Fighters not already ascended learn about the Pantheon, which only fueled conspiracies and rumors, and supported the theory of the Pantheon itself being an Elseworld to the entire existence altogether.
• It was widely known at this point that the Island gets massively reformed or otherwise changed in each finale (Chapter Finale, if you wanted to be specific), leaving a whole new map in its wake. with how constantly the Island changes, some of the Pantheonic denizens suggested going meta and put the entire Reality Zero in the Hype Prevention Sandbox altogether. Cue a facepalm from Wikipe-tan and Trope-Tan each.
  • The partial exception to this, however, due to Time Travel, was the return of the "Athena" in the season dubbed OG, named after the fact the original Island was returning.
• Eventually, reports had it some certain crew stealing a Time Machine to extract a certain thing. Multiple sources reveals:
  • In C4S3, The Ancients, as well as Optimus Prime were trying to warn Dr. Slone (formerly of Imagined Order) about the arrival of enemies, more formidable than before, and an impending event that would collapse Reality Zero (i.e. the Island). However, Slone and the The Explorers rebuilt the Apparatus, which prophesied the eminent arrival of The Eclipse.
  • The first enemy to arrive, tied to the Eclipse, turned out to be a man known as Kado Thorne, a vampire with a rift-powered Time Machine who brought his Estates (Eclipsed Estate, Sanguine Suites, and Relentless Retreat) and Guards to the Island. Kado used his rift-powered Time Machine to collect artifacts from different times and events, throughout the previous seasons such as the Golden Egg, Mythic Goldfish, Midas' Drum Gun, The Foundation's MK-Seven Assault Rifle, Oro's Skull, as well as other items such as Kit's Shockwave Launcher.
  • Optimus Prime's words made Slone come to a conclusion; that she can use the Time Machine to find a key detail in the past, that will secure a better future for this reality. Slone called for a professional heister named Nolan Chance, who she thinks can help her steal the Time Machine from Kado. Slone also managed to recruit The Looper to assist with the Eclipsed Estate Heist. Nolan and The Looper managed to get Antonia, Fish Thicc, Piper Pace, Mae and Khaby Lame to also join the crew for the Heist.
  • As of Fortnitemare 2023, the heist mostly failed, as Kado transformed into his Revenant form, but with the main accomplishment being the successful theft of the time machine and its rift-powered battery, in part thanks to due to the Looper and Shimmerdusk taking him out. The crew then stashed the time machine at Frenzy Fields (just outside of The Getaway), where Slone and Jones started to study and experiment on it. They use the machine to bring many items from C1S5 as a test, such as the Tomato Temple Head, Durr Burger, Dusty Diner Sign and more. Eventually these items disappeared from Frenzy Fields with Jones and the Time Machine itself, with the Season 5 items appearing in the real world.
  • Jones used the Time Machine to travel in the past of Reality Zero at the beginning of C1S5 for an extraction mission. However this past seems to be altered as there are notable differences. Certain characters don't exist and their roles are filled by other characters, such as: here the Renegade Raider is Lynx, Ragnarok is the actor who played the role of the super villain Omega and the master of ice cream is not Lil' Whip but Peely. Any change in the past will affect the future, so what does the future hold?
    • This new timeline, dubbed Season OG, was a point of debate among the entire Pantheon, and for good reasons. For starters, Kado Thorne's time machine^SPOILERS The vampire himself was eventually killed at Fortnitemare by then malfunctioned, resulting in everyone being sent back in time and causing a disruption in the flow of time, explaining the difference.
    • Said disruption also explains why the Loopers went from C1S5 to C1SX in the span of no more than one month instead of more than a year as they used to. This did not go unnoticed by those that participated on the various incarnations of the Island before.
  • Optimus Prime was quickly questioned by various Deadly Game participants for not only his appearance on the Island (C4S3), but also how he motivated Alone into traveling back in time, risking timelines itself. The Autobot leader simply rephrased his words from the Island...
  Optimus Prime: Yes, the key to their future lies in their past. The answers lie deep within the starless void that brought them... and some version of some of us.
• It's confirmed that Zero Point doesn't have any normal alternative timeline version: the ones featured throughout Pantheon therefore has to be the same one appearing multiple times over.
  • There's an interesting speculation that multiple versions of Zero Point can only co-exist through Hypertime, serving as a temporal representation of the greater omniverse, penned to be the spatial half of what DC Comics calls as "The Divine Continuum". Those at Space and Cosmos, Time and Temporality and Media and Connectivity houses actually debated about the fate of the nexus orb, due to what happened to it in C3S4 and Chapter 4.
  • What everyone can agree on regarding the lack of distinct alternative timeline for the Zero Point is that it's not affected by time travel. Which would means that if Zero Point dies and/or is completely destroyed, all reality and existence in the entire omniverse (including the Pantheon as well) will be destroyed.
  • Another discovery came was related to Chapter 2, as there's a humanoid spirit referred to as he/him, wreathed in blue glowing energy. His name was Zero, and he appears to be the Anthropomorphic Personification of the Zero Point itself. There's even a version that protects the "Koi Kingdom", as of C4S2. This discovery brought fear to those interested in Reality Zero, as the nexus orb being severely weaken would mean the humanoid spirit would've been sick as of Chapter 4, due to what happened to it at the finale of C3S4. However, the fear was somewhat overriden by the fact that some Loopers actually assumed the Zero form and acts like what Fortnite kids would, much to the GUAs' embarrassment.
• One day, the Chapter 4 one (codenamed "Asteria") suddenly flicked with light, and glitched, much to the worry of the Pantheon denizens. Then the Island quakes and rapidly turned into itself and the dual-sided ("Apollos"/"Artemis") and the original ("Athena"), and then... exploded into rifts, which then turned warm in colors and then coalesces into a galaxy-like vortex◊. The Zero Point exploded in the process, and released similar vortexes with varying colors. All the vortexes is then circled with things from tons of... worlds◊, mainly originating outside the Pantheon but also including some props that's present in Pantheon. And those energy tendrils — nothing unseen at this point^note Remember the pure portals in C2S5 and Zero Fusion in C3S4? — now connect the vortexes together. The Zero Point now appears to be in the middle of them all for real, and Reality Zero is Nothing Is the Same Anymore at this point. As beautiful as it all is, the GUAs actually panicked at the sight of the whole thing — out of fear that the Cosmic Retcon will interfere everything they're doing, as well as the Pantheon itself.
  • Indeed, a few of such tendrils actually connected with both the Dominion and the Main House. Some vortexes even littered the skies of the entire Pantheon, and most of them leads to outside the Pantheon altogether, giving the potential opportunities for those not ascended to visit the deified fictional residents.
  • It is revealed that the whole Island glitch thing is due to the completion of the extraction mission that started on Season OG, bringing the way to the Chapter 5, with an entirely new Island (codenamed "Helios") and the previous ones stuck in the previous points of the Hypertime, in between reality and Retconnian. After Jones strapped the time machine into the rocket and somehow removed Kevin and the floating island out of the way, the rocket launches, vanishes into a rift, then other rockets emerge from that rift to draw the meteor into another rift, which is then guided down into Loot Lake, causing the loopers to fly into the air and reality to implode... but that's where the similarities to Chapter 1's conclusion end. Both the rocket (as it's launching) and the meteor (as it falls into Loot Lake) randomly transformed into other objects during their travels, and instead of a black hole, things culminate in a massive Big Bang of swirling, oscilating energy, from which emerges the Looper and a whole lot of other things (including a Fall Guy). The Looper is soon drawn into a galaxy-like vortex that takes takes them and three companions to a LEGO-themed version of the island. After a couple minutes of gliding around and taking in the sights, the Looper and co. are pulled out and enter another world — a racing-oriented reality with a few rocket... cars. One lap around the track later, and the squad are taken to a third world, where they land on a concert stage currently playing host to Eminem. Everyone jams out to "Lose Yourself" until a giant counterpart to the Real Life rapper, "Marshall Never More", arrives on the scene and pulls the Looper and co. into a post-apocalyptic realm, whereafter he starts singing "Godzilla" as he rampages. After that, the Looper is pulled out for a final time, now left adrift in a galactic sea of worlds... hence the whole Island glitching in the first place.
  • All that comes C5S1, where a Jonesy (specifically called "Vengeance Jones") wanted revenge on the Society for keeping his friend Peely hostage, and led his Underground team to the train and the day. Specifically, a Looper works with "The Underground" to take back the Island from a secretive force called "The Society" and rescue Jones' pal Peely. Among the The Society are the five bosses (being fightable NPCs in-game) — one of which is Peter Griffin, vaults owned by The Society that can be opened for loot, and a continuously-travelling train run by The Society with a replenishing loot chest onboard for Loopers to heist. The Loopers and the Underground were eventually able to cause infighting amongst the Society, weakening them; by that point, the Turtles got their steps into the Island, alongside their Sensei, their reporter and even their nemesis, among others.
  • The Batman Who Laughs, however upon learning about the Island glitching, plan to hijack the Big Bang to make the extraction fail and thus making all of existence (including the entire Pantheon) vulnerable and unstable as to allow He Who Laughs himself to awaken both the Dark Pantheon and the version of reality existence where he won. The fact that the complete destruction of the Zero Point would end all existence across a full timestream made He Who Laughs' case (Read: intefering with the Big Bang itself as the Darkest Knight) even worse and more morbid, even to the GUAD as a whole (if due to them being completely annihilated alongside the rest of the Pantheon altogether).
• The recently-formed galaxies by the new Big Bang (as the GUAs calls the event as) serves as gateways to other worlds and Multiverses, even to the rest of the Houses and the Dominions Expansion. While the Battle Royale cooled off from the case of the omniverse for the time being, the members of GUAs, with the exception of the GUAD (obviously due to their obvious destructive mission), decided to traverse to the galaxies way, starting with the other flagships. The LEGO one automatically turned everyone stepping in into LEGO minifigures, much to the amusement of those who previous have been rendered as minifigures before. The racing one supplied a ton of racing cars of various shapes, none of which can fit YHVH at all, as YHVH himself is usually too large overall]]. He didn't care about it, while much of the rest actually raced at least once before departing. The musical one actually saw the members seeing a pure portal of rift (made of the same kind of energy tendrils found in the way) leading to the House of Musicality, in the middle of jam and fest no less, so no member brothered to check in any further.
  • Malal was baffled at seeing the Reality Zero right above the Retconnian, his domain, fearing that the discontinuity would become irrelevant at the end of the day. The connection between the Zero Point and Hypertime as theorized and speculated didn't help. However, those who're Deader than Dead comforted him again, calming the twisted Justice Chaos God down. Meanwhile, Brainiac cringed at the connection between Reality Zero and the Retconnian, recalling when his actions with previously defunct iterations of DC Universe ended up re-canonizing all of them and set the stage for the return of the Infinite Earths.
  • The GUAs members, having finally seen exactly what's outside the Pantheon as a whole, decided to tell The One Who Doesn't Exist to protect the outside, preventing the Pantheon from bleeding into actual canon itself in addition to keeping the non-canon eliminates of fiction from breaking out. Malal now has to do a double-duty as an Overdeity (though he stays a Greater God outside of the Retconnian in particular and the canon matter in general).

Voting ends after I'm allowed to edit again. The deadline starts at April.

Somebody already said that the first few bullets are too short. Also, I think it should go in Fictional Settings.

I’m sorry but, your wording with the voting isn’t clear cut. Also, if you’re unable to continue editing it, you can always leave the profile for adoption. No harm in doing that.

So I know I have two profiles in the works (Fran Bow and Angus Bumby), but I'd like to make a character suggestion. My initial plan was to work on them to ascend at once, but I think it'd be better to work on Fran alongside this character that's in the same universe as her, and work on the Bumby rework later.

Suggesting: Misfortune Ramirez Hernandez as Goddess of Beautifying with Glitter

(tentative title, might discuss alternatives later)

• Reasoning: Misfortune always carries around a glitter bottle because she likes to "sprinkle sparkle on things so they become fabulous." It makes her gloomy world a little more beautiful as lighthearted doodles and sparkles appear over whatever she uses it on, showcasing how she sees things or wishes things could be. The glitter is the key to the Good Ending, using it on every object available unlocks the Eternal Happiness that she wanted to get for her mother since the start of the game.

What I'm really struggling with at the moment is figuring out what house she would go in.

• Person Of Interest To/Wary Around: Hotaru, Ra's al-Ghul, Cetrion
• Odd Friendship: With Poison Ivy
• Haohmaru couldn't help but to crack a small grin as a familiar presence got his attention. She was here, he realized, having finally ascended to the Pantheon. Taking a wild guess as to where she had set up her temple, Haohmaru made the trip to visit his old friend. As expected, her temple is a perfect replica of her cottage back in her home village of Kamuikotan, located deep within the Pantheon's forests. Then, she appeared; an Ainu girl in the traditional garb of an Ainu shrine maiden, accompanied by her two pets - a hawk and wolf respectively. Nakoruru has come to the Pantheon at last. Nakoruru receives her guest warmly and tells him how she was able to ascend to the Pantheon. She was summoned to the Pantheon by Nature's will, and given her tendency of traveling from one universe to another, Nakoruru simply opened a portal to the Pantheon and stepped into it, where she found her temple/home already built, so she moved in.
• When she is not fighting for Mother Nature, she is known for championing various social actions for children and nature awareness programs alongside Terry Bogard. Speaking of the aforementioned Bogard, Terry paid Nakoruru a visit to her temple to pay his respects. Not really a huge fan of cities, Nakoruru prefers the countryside, as she is more at home in the forested regions, as befitting her nature. It was also how she met Jun Kazama, a fellow warrior devoted to defending Mother Nature. While Jun's taste in men is questionable, Nakoruru sees Jun as a kindred spirit, and is considering Jun's invitation to visit Yakushima.
• As a now-deified nature spirit, Nakoruru's ascension has been making waves throughout the Pantheon. As a defender of Nature, Nakoruru finds herself playing host to not just The Lorax, but also Ashitaka, the wolf-woman/romantic interest San, and her adopted mother, Moro-no-Kimi. The Lorax was curious as to who the newcomer was that made their home within the Pantheon's vast forests, while Ashitaka - a former prince of the Emushi, an ethnic group with cloes ties to the Ainu - was drawn to Nakoruru due to their shared ethnic ties. San and Moro wanted to make sure that Nakoruru wasn't another Lady Eboshi, as one was bad enough already. Already, Totoro is a frequent visitor to Nakoruru's temple, a clear sign for San and Moro that Nakoruru was on Nature's side. Nakoruru is all for progress, but not at the expense of destroying Nature for progress, profit or for shits and giggles, of which the Lorax is also in agreement with.
  • On the opposite end, as a defender of Nature, Nakoruru has issues with those who disrepect, pollute or outright destroy Nature. If she's around someone like C. Montgomery Burns or Hexxus, Nakoruru is more than willing to let Rera take over. Oh, yeah, Nakoruru has a superpowered split personality, one that is more than willing to spill blood to reach her goals. It's also this same reason why Nakoruru opposes the Orochi wind master, Leopold Goenitz, and his underlings, Team Orochi. Goenitz claims that his goals are noble, that he wishes to restore Nature. Nakoruru is quick to point out that his plans to restore Nature's balance involves reviving Orochi to bring about the extermination of mankind. "And here, I thought Ambrosia was insane," Nakoruru muses. It's also the reason why she doesn't wholly trust Cetrion. Liu Kang and Nightwolf had visited her temple to not only pay their respects, but to also warn Nakoruru about Cetrion's intentions. While not as bad as Goenitz's goals, Certrion's plans of decimating humanity and nature is bad enough. "And she calls herself a Goddess of Virtue and a Guardian of Life," Nakoruru scoffs. To which, Liu replies, "Cetrion is just as bad, if not worse than her brother, the fallen Elder God Shinnok."
• Just because she's a nature spirit doesn't mean that Nakoruru can get down and dirty when it comes to combat. Haohmaru can attest that Nakoruru is formidable. Nakoruru is a master of the Dancing Sword Arts of the Shikanna-Kamui, with her weapon of choice being the Makiri short sword, of which Nakoruru named Chichi-ushi (Father Bull). And the Pantheon's fighting community are also taking notice. Thanks to Nakoruru's dimension-hopping antics, she was seen teaming up with Haohmaru on one such occasion, while another has her fighting against the World Warriors at a tournament hosted by the Masters Foundation and the Garcia Concern. There were also rumors of Nakoruru seen at a nightclub, asking Andy Bogard if he wanted to dance◊, but Nakoruru denies that claim. Nakoruru has been scouted by Maya Fallegeros and Nightwolf (at the behest of Liu Kang). Nakoruru was flattered by the offers, but refused, as her responsibility is to Nature and Nature alone.
