The Merovingian is up. Unfortunately Villainous Roles has gotten too big and a new Hall for Villainy needs to be created. Maybe Villainous Jobs (for enforcer tropes and jobs that are a villain trope)

@AbsoluteRainbow: Did you even notice my response to Fortnite Island?

for Villainous Jobs.

Also, since RJ mentioned adoptions, I have a bunch of ideas sitting in my sandbox. Most of them are from works I haven't touched in a while.

Edited by NitroIndigo on Feb 9th 2024 at 7:02:54 PM

Current pitch members of Villains Jobs: Diavolo, Dimentio, Emperor Belos, HYDRA (Greater), The Black Knight, Clown/the Violator, The Brotherhood of Evil, Crush and Gulp, Dr Facilier, Enter (Go-Busters) Oda Nobunaga (Sengoku Basara), Olga (Intermediate), Anastasia Cisnarova, Colonel Mael Radec, Dr XXX (Lesser) Who should I remove and/or add?

Note: Remembered clown was a job

Edited by RJ-19-CLOVIS-93 on Feb 10th 2024 at 8:41:13 AM

I can dig that! !

Villainous Jobs as it is. Will respond to feedback and continue tomorrow

Reminder for later but how does voting/approval for a new Hall work? Been a while since I did this kind of stuff

Edited by RJ-19-CLOVIS-93 on Feb 10th 2024 at 8:45:52 AM

@AbsoluteRainbow

If you want, I can polish up the draft for the Fortnite island and submit it myself. As a fellow fan of the game, I'm deeply concerned over the repeated mistakes you have been making as part of the Pantheon, and I don't want the work's fans in question to get a bad rap here because of it. Had to tell off one user already for doing as such, so I'd really prefer it if we worked together to ensure no ill will comes of us here.

Is Outside-Genre Foe taken?

If not, I’d like to propose Dark Matter for it.

Reasoning: In the game, in contrast to the other villains in the series, Dark Matter is an Eldritch Abomination Outside Context Problem. It corrupts people and/or drives them insane, including controlling Yveltal, consumes them with spawn, De Powers people, is Made of life’s faults… and turned Arceus, Rayquaza, Deoxys and Mewtwo to stone at the same time. It was ONLY defeated by what life was left (the player and the partner) accepting that there will always be darkness in people. it didn’t take it well. Its attacks don’t have types, it sounds like many voices speaking at once according to the Partner, and its attacks are completely incomprehensible. It Can Think, and as a defensive measure it can be typeless, and rotate through other types. Its presence alone turns the game into a Cosmic Horror Story despite it being Pokemon.

Edited by SailorVenus372 on Feb 10th 2024 at 12:13:31 PM

Btw, I have posted Dragonlord here

I'm not sure. It's not listed under Outside-Genre Foe, but it is under Outside-Context Problem, which is taken by the D-Reaper.

Edited by NitroIndigo on Feb 10th 2024 at 8:18:07 PM

It IS very much one, though. And I’m pretty sure we have characters other than it that aren’t listed on their tropes up.

Edited by SailorVenus372 on Feb 10th 2024 at 12:18:57 PM

In that case, for Dark Matter.

Hmm, Upon seeing the Westeros draft, I'm wondering how many Dominions do we have whose residents visit the Pantheon sometimes without being ascended?

I've mentioned that the inhabitants of the Scorched Queen's Kingdom and Paleo Pines visit other dominions in their profiles and nobody objected.

I believe for Dark Matter's cheap bootleg version

Okay, proposal time! I hope you all like it!

• Camila Noceda, the Goddess who Looks After the Heroes

When the Basilisk Vee escapes the Boiling Isles, Camila ends up unwittingly taking her in. After Vee attends Sumer Camp, she bonds with Camila enough to see Camila as her own mother, which Camila effectively becomes after she saves Vee from Jacob Hopkins. Later, when the Hexsquad (Luz Noceda, Amity Blight, Willow Park, Gus Porter, and Hunter) gets trapped in the Human Realm after the Day of Unity, Camila ends up looking after them, and doing her best to give them the support they need thanks to being separated from their families, especially her daughter. She stays with the group when they return to the Demon Realm (after saving Hunter from being drowned by Belos) to save the Boiling Isles, as she recognizes that her daughter in particular needs her more than ever. While she is uncomfortable with the quirks of the Demon Realm, she does her absolute best to suppress it as she knows how much Luz loves the Isles, and also does things like encouraging the flagging Willow to not try stuffing her emotions down, as well as voicing just how proud she is of Luz, and how she should never have doubted that supporting her unconditionally would be the best thing for her, which results in Luz's Palisman Stringbean finally hatching.

• Mr. and Mrs. Turner, Co-Deities of Parents Without First Names

While Mr. and Mrs. Turner have been on screen since the very first season of The Fairly Odd Parents, despite the show lasting for ten whole seasons, they have never been named even once. They are exclusively refered to as "Timmy's Dad" or "Timmy's Mom" or their surnames, even by people who would have no reason to do so. The closest we have got to them being named is the first season time travel episode where Timmy's Dad is interrupted by passing vehicles while saying his and his future wife's names. Even in said time travel episode, he says that everyone calls him "Dad", and everyone calls his future wife "Mom".

• The People of Cappy Town, the Township that Exists Within a Divergent Canon

Almost the entirety of the residents of Cappy Town, including central characters such as Fumu/Tiff, Bun/Tuff, and Dedede's new advisor Escargoon, are Canon Foreigners created for the anime. Cappy Town's primary antagonizer is the equally original Holy Nightmare Corp, a new faction based on Nightmare, complete with a backstory war with the Galaxy Soldier Army, and the Star Warriors, such as Meta Knight. While this backstory might have been compatible with past iterations of the Game Timeline, following Kirbys Return To Dreamland centering game lore around the Ancients, the anime continuity has become wholly incompatible with the Games, especially as Kirby's origin as of Kirby Star Allies is that they are implied to be born from Astral Birth Void, whereas in the anime, they are implied to be have been made by Nightmare.

• Due to Sally Acorn being moved into a group profile under a different trope, Team Mom got freed up, and I don't believe that Alternate Continuity is taken, as I didn't see it in any sandboxes. The Turners idea was adopted with permission from @Phantom Fire.

for all three, though the Cappy Towners' title could be shorter.

Folks, here are my two newest Pantheon profiles. Seeking opinions on what should be added/changed/removed.

Morris "Moe" Greene, The God Who Was Shot In the Eye

• Quasideity
• Symbol: His eyeglasses (anyone got a better idea?)
• Alignment: Neutral Evil
• Portfolio: Jewish Mobster Based On Bugsy Siegel, Loudmouthed, Impulsive and Discourteous, Was Killed in the Corleones' Baptism Blitz with a Bullet in the Eye (at least in the film), Is Unrewarded for his Contributions to Las Vegas Crime which Motivates Hyman Roth to Oppose Michael in the Sequel
• Domains: Gambling, Racketeering
• Enemies: Vito and Michael Corleone, Bucciarati's Gang
• Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: La Squadra Esecuzioni

• The Adeptus Mechanicus, Divine Collective of Machine Worship as a Greater God-level organization (or Ambiguously Ranked) and a member of the Imperium Machina of the House of Machinery and Technology
• Lily, Our Lady of Face-Damage Aversion (The Strongest Model, The Brutal Princess, The Blooming Idol) as a Demigoddess in the Hall of Fighting Mindsets (House of Fighting and Combat)

I also wish to know: would it be impudent to post the link to the Pantheon Search Database Prototype on the main Pantheon page?

Edited by Lapsem on Feb 10th 2024 at 8:32:53 AM

For Aster, Saitama can defeat anyone with one punch. I think you should add the search database to the Pantheon page once it's finished.

Edited by NitroIndigo on Feb 10th 2024 at 4:40:29 PM

for your two proposals.

I recommend you have at least two-to-three paragraphs for Moe and Aster the next time you post them. This is because I believe the best way to structure a character profile before getting into interactions is to list out their narrative (story) overview, their ascension into the Pantheon, and general background (personality, motivations, powers/abilities, talents) and all of these could present ideas about potential suggestions.

Additionally, you can also add requested suggestions below their paragraphs. For example...

• (Idol Singers)
• (Characters with Powerful Punches)
• (Boxers)
• (And so on forth)

So now with Catchphrase becoming a disambig, this leaves Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson in a rather awkward position. I'm thinking of around three choices we can go through in this case...

• Give him Character Catchphrase as The Rock is someone who has accumulated a boatload of one-liners that have become synonymous with him.
• Give him Fascinating Eyebrow as The Rock is one of the most seminal examples of this expression and uses it on several occasions, such as surprise, intrigue, shock, excitement, and anticipation. His liberal use of it is to the point where it's now a [[meme|ticMutation]] because of it and several meme templates exist of it.
• Delete the profile as it is a mediocre profile that's been underdeveloped for years. The option to rework him is open, however, should one make a good claim about The Rock having enough media credibility and fame + potentially interesting facts and fictitious versions to remain in the Pantheon.

If you have any say, you can decide...

Edited by CrimsonShark on Feb 10th 2024 at 7:39:06 PM

Hey folks, here's another plug for my Pantheon entry. Any ideas/thumbs would be greatly appreciated.

Thumbs/feedback mode

Ultraman Ace and Seiji Hokuto & Yuko Minami, Gods of Violent Deaths in Kids’ Media (Ace, Ultraman A, The Ace of Space, Guillotine Prince) - Hall of Manners of Death

^{Yuko Manami (L) and Seiji Hokuto (R)} 

^{Seiji Hokuto in an Alternate Universe with the Ace Suit} 

• Greater God. Lesser Deities as Seiji and Yuko (Yuko is secretly an Intermediate Goddess). Intermediate God with the Ace Suit
• Symbol: The TAC Logo. Alternatively, Ace’s Ultra Sign.
• Theme song: Ace No Uta (21st Century Version), TAC Theme (As Hokuto and Minami), (Lyrics version), Battle of Ace

  • Yuko Minami: Badass Normal, Nice Girl, Scarf of Asskicking, Human Aliens, Lunarians, Healing Hands, Put on a Bus
• Domains: Protection, Giants, Heroes, Slaughter; The Moon, Healing (Minami only)
• Heralds: TAC (Goro Ryu, Noriko Mikawa, Ichiro Yamanaka, Tsutomo Konno, Kozo Yoshimura, Kaji Yoichi), Dan Umezu, Kayoko Umezu, Ultraman Z (Godson)
• Followers: Redman, Kamen Rider Amazon, Kamen Rider Shin
• Allies: All Benevolent Ultra Series Deities (especially Ultraman, Ultraseven, Zoffy (fellow Ultra Brothers), Leo, Mebius and STORAGE), All heroic Toku Deities (especially Kamen Riders 1/2), Captain America, Superman, Raleigh Becket and Mako Mori, Kenshiro
• Enemies: Yapool (SWORN ARCHNEMESIS), All other evil Ultra Series deities (especially Belial and Alien Empera), the evil members of the Houses of Extraterrestrials and Otherness, SHOCKER, Spacegodzilla, Destoroyah, The Lepus
• In 1972, the extradimensional invader Yapool attacked Earth with swarms of bizarre and highly aggressive giant monsters designated as Choju. To protect this beloved planet, the Land of Light sent aid in the form of a young Ultra warrior named Ultraman Ace. Fusing with Seiji Hokuto and Yuko Minami, the two latest recruits in TAC, Earth’s newest defense force at the time, Ace battled Yapool’s Choju army on a weekly basis, overcoming their violent stubbornness by mutilating them in combat. Eventually, Ace managed to temporarily kill Yapool before wiping out the remaining Choju, though at the emotional cost of the trio splitting up when Minami returned to her Lunar home, soon followed by Ace and Hokuto leaving Earth when the latter was forced to reveal his secret identity to defeat Jumbo King.
• In a plot to wreak havoc across the Pantheon, Yapool flashed its skies with Ultra sign warnings to draw the ascended Ultramen away. Without his most persistent foes defending it, the space demon unleashed an army of Choju upon the Pantheon’s unsuspecting deities, inciting a nigh-unstoppable wave of destruction and panic. When all hope seemed lost, a new Ultra appeared in a flash of light and single-handedly fought off Yapool’s invasion force with an aggression and violence nigh-unheard of amongst the ascended Ultras. While arriving reinforcements were initially horrified to see piles of Choju heads, limbs and halves strewn across the battlefield, they were glad to have received Ace’s help and, as a reward, he and his hosts were ascended as the Gods of Family-Unfriendly Deaths in recognition of Ace’s violent techniques in spite of his kid-friendly home genre.
• Ace’s ascension was dearly welcomed by the ascended Ultras. In addition to the likes of the M78 Ultras of his native universe, he formed a deep bond with Storage, who supported his unascended godson Zett during his mission on Earth, and with whom he worked with on one mission. Both parties are hoping to ascend Zett in the future but, in the meantime, Ace has happily agreed to aid Storage combat Celebro's monsters whenever they need an Ultra.
  • Despite Ace’s violent techniques being the complete opposite of Cosmos’s strong belief in compassion for monsters, the Gentle Giant Ultra has no ill feelings towards the violent deaths Ace dished out upon the Choju during his prime. While Cosmos wishes to redeem and protect any creature, even those of monstrous size and form, he recognizes that the Choju, born of Yapool’s lust for conquest and suffering, lacked the potential for compassion and, being unable to feel fear or pain, had to suffer gruesome injuries for them to succumb to death. Unlike other deities who have regularly dealt with irredeemable monsters, Cosmos recognizes that Ace still shows a capacity for compassion and mercy.
• Having defended their respective Earths around the same time, the trio quickly befriended Takeshi Hongo and Hayato Ichimonji, who were always glad to meet another group of Toku heroes in the Pantheon. While nowhere near as skilled as the masters, Hokuto, and Minami on occasion, has joined the first Kamen Riders in friendly motorcycle races, often followed by a team up to kill whichever monster of the week had the misfortune of terrorizing the Pantheon in their vicinity. As Ace's full-time host/human form, Hokuto has begun training with the Kamen Rider deities, as well as Ultraman Leo, to try to pull off the Rider Kick as yet another tool in his inexhaustible, Choju-slaying arsenal.
• While the ascension of Ultramen’s human hosts or forms was certainly not unheard of, the Court of the Gods initially debated over whether to ascend only Hokuto or to include Minami as well, as the latter only functioned as Ace’s shared host for less than half of Ace’s original adventures. The matter was decided by Ace himself – while Seiji Hokuto had become his permanent human identity since 1972, Yuko Minami was nonetheless a key part of his identity and a major ally to Ace, even decades after their initial split. With both hosts ascended, Ace usually sticks with Hokuto as his primary host, whereas Minami functions independently as an open Lunarian. However, every once in a while, the Ultra temporarily fuses with Minami, with Hokuto lending her her original Ultra ring, so that the duo hosts can form Ace together like in the old days.
  • After having watched Ace’s original outing, a few deities from the House of Love tried to set Hokuto and Minami up on a date to rekindle their lost romance. Despite their hopes, both deities declined the offer, having moved on decades ago and their life paths having diverged too far. However, these love Gods held on hope, knowing that at least one version of the duo had followed through and gotten married.
• As Yapool’s sworn archnemesis, the Pantheon’s heroes gladly welcomed Ace and his hosts among their ranks as the natural counter to the space demon’s relentless attacks. This has drove Yapool’s ire to levels unseen in the Pantheon, inspiring him to create new Choju out of the Pantheon’s monsters and creatures. While Ace is confident he can handle most of Yapool’s old and new Choju, he’s been forming allies in case the villain creates another Ace Killer or Ultra-Killersaurus, or something even worse.
  • A close ally of Yapool, SHOCKER, and the evil Kamen Rider deities by extension, have sworn to destroy Ace and his hosts. While SHOCKER’s combatmen and kaijin have proven a dangerous foe for his untransformed hosts (at least for Hokuto), Ace’s immense size and power have usually made mincemeat of SHOCKER’s troops with the littlest of effort. Despite this, Ace secretly expresses an incomprehensible fear of the Great General … could it be because they share a common voice?
  • While Choju were his most common threats, Ace has had experience dealing with plain old Kaiju on Earth, and his role as a protector in the Pantheon have led to him crossing paths with quite a few nasty ones. Of note, King Ghidorah, Spacegodzilla and Destroyah ire him to no end, with their immense power and sadism reminding him of the irredeemable Choju he had to eliminate during his hey-day. If anything, he’s happy that these monsters lack the intelligence and precision that enabled Yapool to ruin Hokuto’s and Minami’s lives on a regular basis.
• Every once in the while, Ace, Hokuto and Minami take on a completely new identity: a teenage, cyborg Hokuto who wore power armor to help the SSSP battle against human-sized threats. Despite his good intentions, his Smug Snake attitude and lack of compunctions against using blackmail and petty theft to support his operations have soured this incarnation’s relationships with Ace’s usual allies. Most surprisingly, this version of Hokuto mentioned that his Yapool was actually a friendly alien mechanic who helped raise him. Fortunately, he has some common sense and has sworn to destroy the malevolent Choju master.

~Shinobi and ~NitroIndigo, I reposted to get the voting process. But you guys decided to help me with that and polishing the profile. Nice.

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, which is no earlier than April.

As for both of you, I appreciate your help. I repost on each page to ensure voting can be continued while I wait for my editing privilege to return. And not yet, Shinobi, we'll need to undergo the voting process first.

Also (double-posting because my point's getting too long)...

( x16-x20) for Villainous Jobs.

Personally, I would just edit my post

1. For the last time, you can't vote on things yet until you get two profiles submitted. Please stop trying to do as such.

2. When it comes to the profile, do I have permission from you to adopt it? If you do as such, I would be more than keen to help finish it up for you, rather than you trying to post an incomplete draft over and over. I will work on it with Nitro then, if you just give me the profile to work on myself with 'em.

Personally, for the Rock getting Fascinating Eyebrow, as I'd imagine Character Catchphrase has a shitload of other candidates.

@Lapsem for the Adeptus Mechanicus and Lily.

@Azorius 24 on Adam Smasher.

• Maine's Crew: I think it's more accurate to say that RoboCop would Oppose them. They may not be bad people, but they are still a gang of criminals. You could say Murphy would be sympathetic noting the absolute hell that is Night City, but he would still bring them in. Although maybe you could say that he'll leave them alone if a more pressing concern shows up, like active gang violence that's directly threatens civilian lives. In turn they can see Murphy as Adam Smasher if he was a By-the-Book Cop, and maybe speculate that with everything he's done and accomplished, Murphy would be considered a legend in Night City. They could also be either be addition Fixers to Marcus Kincaid, Lex Luthor, or Norman Osborn. Definitely enemies with Gray Mann, he only uses machines that are for some reason powered by money.
