Trope Pantheons Discussion

Welcome to the Trope Pantheons thread! Please read the rules:

Rules

Rules. The following are not suggestions or tips, but things that have to be followed:

When writing a profile, take note of the following:
- Gods cannot be followers or high priests for obvious reasons. The 'gods' have ascended meaning there is no need for said character to be a follower of another if they have ascended.
- No hype profiles, please. 'Hype Profiles' are profiles that have been made out of ongoing events and have not been around for a long time. This creates 'hype' due to popularity and certain elements either through certain scenes, memes, dramatic acting or considered overly awesome. They are not bad tropes but building a portfolio solely for that is a bad idea, as they do not say a thing about representing the trope best (unless it's those trope concepts that they are trying to embody for a long time)
  - You can see one if the profile is only showing off how awesome they are or suddenly pushing how 'significant' they are thanks to the just very recent events rather than respecting the longstanding good representations of the trope. And usually having... minimum portfolio or flavor texts and being a bit too generalized or self-contained to events from within their home series instead of interacting with other Pantheon members.
When posting in the forum, take note of the following:
- When you suggest a God, please explain why they fit the trope. Not everyone is going to understand just "X should be the God of Y because they exemplify the trope" off the bat, especially if they're unfamiliar with the work.
- You must use the Trope Pantheons discussion thread in the forums if you wish to add a new deity, story, something else of importance to the Trope Pantheon canon, or reworking an existing deity (be it simply improving their existing profile or changing their title).
  - For new and reworked deities, 3 means the profile will have a one week waiting period.
  - For new and reworked deities, 4 is a 3 day waiting period.
  - 5 is an automatic ascension for new and reworked deities.
  - Speaking of reworks, for anyone that wants to improve such profiles, they have to review the current trope the character(s) has and see if it still holds up or if there is a better rep for their trope.
- For adding new Treasures to The Great Treasury or new Dominions to the Dominions, the following rules apply:
  - For new Treasures or Dominions, 3 is a 3 day waiting period.
  - 4 is an automatic addition to the Great Treasury or Dominions.
- Do not repost a profile in the forums more than twice in a day if noticeable changes have not been made in between. If a profile is posted a third time in a row without noticeable alterations, it will be downvoted. This is so spamming of no-effort profiles is less frequent and to prevent tropers from getting aggravated seeing the same profile over and over. The minimum acceptable change has to be a single flavour text.
- The Pantheon is not a mouthpiece for you to voice your opinions on certain characters. You may like certain characters more than others, but do not make the mistake of making profiles for characters you like look like Character Shilling.
- Tropers new to the Pantheon are barred from approving or downvoting profiles until they have ascended at least two profiles.
- Do not include fan reception in any profiles. It has nothing to do with the character themselves and will create unnecessary conflict.
- Write a detailed explanation on why the character is the best candidate for deity of that trope. If people disagree with you, do not force it on the people.
- Keep in mind that if you still want to try to find a trope for a particular character, you are only given three chances to find a particular trope for them. If a suggestion goes past three possible tropes, then it will come off as shoehorning a character into the Pantheon just for the sake of that character to be there.
  - On a related note, even if a character does have a free trope being suggested, there is still a limit of three attempts for suggesting that character for that trope. If no one responds to that certain proposal after being posted three times, then it will get to the point where the idea will be seen as being shoehorned into the Pantheon. In addition, the idea needs to be considered acceptable and approved because they are good, not for the sake of pitying others because no one is responding to their idea.
When posting Pantheon related stuff to the wiki, take note of the following:
- Do not put a link to these Pantheon pages into the main wiki page. The moment you want to add in a main Characters page that the character is a God of this trope, do not do it. If you see leftovers of this practice, inform the forum and use the cutlist. This also goes to the Trivia page. The only exception to this rule is if a page in the Pantheon could be confused for a page in Main, like Good Colors, Evil Colors and Good and Evil Colors.
- Rule of Cautious Editing Judgment ALSO applies here. Do not bring things that would incite fights, even if it is what is currently the hot topic and might be 'urgent'. For example, the political scene and some really bad politicians. We are not here to fight at each other, so don't suggest things that go to that direction, this is a fictional Pantheon after all.
- To add a Pantheon page for a certain work, 4 or more characters coming from the same series/franchise should be ascended before adding the page. For Creator specific pages, 4 deities coming from the same creator and 2 individual work pages coming from the same creator is the minimum to warrant a page.
- Do not create a trope page for a story until the story is fully completed.

Instructions and Tips

Here are some tips one should keep in mind when editing:

Preparing to write:
- First thing to do before present a profile is to go to the Trope Pantheons discussion thread. In the forums, you must discuss with other users on adding ideas and seek their approval with sound reasoning. You can also get some assistance in the forum thread by either asking for help and those interested asking if they can help. Submissions that are added without discussion are likely to be deleted and those who violate those rules by adding Pantheon content without discussion will get reported to the mods.
- If you feel the need to remove a character for some reason (poor quality, outdated titles, etcetera) and replace him/her with another or outright rework, please see what the other tropers think about this in the discussion thread before doing anything hasty. Use good reasoning to see if your idea can easily replace the character present without drawing out your statement or giving too ambiguous claims most do not understand.
- Please be sure to consult others in the discussion about what you want to work before making the profile. This is done to see if your proposal is the best representative and so, in case your profile is turned down, you do not waste time writing something that others might not find suitable.
  - In the same vein, if you adopt a profile from another troper, it is recommended that you make an announcement that you have done so on the discussion thread. More often than not, a trope that was reserved for something was given away to someone else. Check the Related tab on the top of a page to see if a trope or character has been reserved by a user.
- If, for whatever reason, you are writing about a God who just happens to be a person in real life, just try to be very careful about what you decide to say. Do not try to make the editing seem too meta (self-referential) and use the aformentioned creativity to create hypothetical scenarios towards fictional characters.
When writing a profile for a character, here are a few things to note:
- All deities should be sorted by their divine ranking. Put Overdeities on the top of the page and Quasideities on the bottom. Also be sure to add them in alphabetical order by their first/given name (can be reversed if it is Eastern ordered). For a group, if there is no official name for them all list down all their names by order of relevance or (if too long to list) title them as Insert Name Here Main Characters or some other identifiable title along the same lines.
- The maximum number of tropes that a god can have is two, but do not try to abuse that fact. If you need to use a second trope to specify a certain thing about their position, that can be excused either because said character represents their trope choice very well alongside the first trope. It is still generally encouraged to only have one trope.
- A trope can only belong to one profile at a time. The only time two profiles can share a trope is if there are explicit variations listed in the trope page proper (e.g. Muscle Angst is held by both Biscuit Krueger and Chihiro Fujisaki as the former represents "Too Much Muscle" and the latter represents "Not Enough Muscle")
- If the character you are about to add to a House already exists in another, make sure to mention that this person has spots in other House as well. Up to 2 places can be made for a deity, with the sole exceptions being those at the Main House to highlight those characters’ importance to the Pantheon’s lore.
- For a character's theme song, try to avoid calling it "Theme of God X" or "Theme of (Show where God X originates from)". If possible, try to find out if the song has an actual name through research. Most importantly, it has to be part their series’ official soundtracks from media. Do not list songs that are made by fans or outside sources. If they were not specifically used as music for that specific character, then they do not count. Furthermore, it has to be a general theme specifically made for that characters’ appearances, not some generic music that plays for many other instances not related to the character in question.
- For images, when adding an image for your chosen character, it is highly recommended to use a stylized image that embodies the character or renders that also highlights a character’s behavior (such as cool poses). Most images should be from the main adaptations of the character, unless the images from the other media are of a higher quality than the adaptation. Unless it is needed, do not use fanart for images. If you are, please attribute to the original artist. Due to the website’s dark mode, removing white backgrounds from an image is paramount. This website is suggested to do the background removal. If an image you have takes up too much bytes, it is suggestible to use this site to reduce the byte size. If the byte is still too big, put the compressed image to other sites (or even the same one) to compress even further. Use wikias to look for better images, as even wikias for the series might not contain good official images.
- Creativity is your friend. While it is not recommended to get too ditzy at your ideas, it is best that when writing a profile for a certain character, do you think of capable scenarios between X and Y. Tip: do not use shallow examples (X wields a sword and Y wields one too) and try to think of relationships that makes sense (i.e those characters that are shout-outs for another).
Pantheon Content:
- Some series or genres will eventually have greater representation in the Pantheon than others. This is unavoidable, but a little diversity helps to make you not look like a shill per say. Try to ensure that if you add a deity from a popular series, make sure that it is because they are a good representative for the trope in question, and not just because they are connected to another deity in their respective canon.
  - As far as deities from actual mythologies, there is generally expectation to build the profiles off interactions from fictional portrays rather than basing it entire from the actual myth. Therefore, a mythological deity should be more of a Composite Character whose main identity is from the actual myth.
- Occasionally there will be Gods that carry a title without a trope. This is not forbidden, but it is well advised not to abuse them. The only house that a tropeless profile are wholly allowed is the House of Food. Mainly due to most food items lacking tropes, and adding tropes about said foodstuffs is slightly unnecessary. However, the character being ascended for their choice of a food, or food-related thing must be a decently good representative of said item. (i.e their Trademark Favorite Food, or something that they are closely associated with In-Universe, or both).
- For Dominions and Treasures profiles, always consider what made those places/objects popular in the first place. Were they plot-important, identifiable imagery or have a unique aspect of it? Do not just bring regular objects under the basis of following a certain canon.
For Profile Standards:
- Flavor text is used to describe certain things about a character, place or object. To avoid short ones, it is recommended to write flavor text with 4-7 sentences that can fill around 2 lines each. Be warned that adding too many sentences does not equal good flavor text as it is not an essay of sorts (unless words are substantial and do add to the overall line).
- Character Profiles of a certain person should have the following:
  - A portfolio that contains at least 7 (at the minimum) tropes describing their character.
  - Flavor text count for a deity profile should have by minimum, 10 (depending if the character in question has enough relationships/characterization) to 15 with a maximum of 20-25 for an individual profile.
  - On the other hand, group profiles (profiles of a group that has 4 or more members) have their maximum flavor text count to 15 minimum, giving individual lines for the other members of the group (unless the members are not as characterized) up to 30 at max.
- Dominion profiles of a certain place should have the following:
  - A portfolio that contains at least 5 (at the minimum) tropes describing the context of the place.
  - Flavor text count should range at least 10 to 15.
- Treasure profiles (inanimate objects without a trope) should have the following:
  - A portfolio that contains at least 6 (at the minimum) tropes that describes the object itself.
  - Flavor text count should be at least 7 flavor text up to 12 to constitute a treasure profile.

Divine Ranking System

Overdeity: Omnipotent-level Reality Warpers capable of manipulating the entire universe (or at least the world) at will. Within their own universe they are believed to be omnipotent, or at least impossible-to-completely-destroy embodiments or concepts.
Greater Gods: High-level Reality Warpers and that are extremely powerful (capable of destroying or changing anywhere from a large city to a planet at will) and very strong non-reality warpers capable of doing the same thing.
Intermediate Gods: Deities at this level are capable of strong but specialized powers such as hydrokinesis, pyrokinesis, etc. without major drawbacks and low level Reality Warpers capable of affecting their immediate area at will.
Lesser Gods: Capable of highly specific or little power on their own, or suffer from Power at a Price. However, they may be able to ruthlessly exploit their power or combine it with just being badass enough to make up for it.
Demigods: Basically the Badass Normals of the pantheon, making up for their lack of abilities with strength, strategy, and/or planning.
Quasideities: Any otherwise normal human, human equivalent, or below without any special powers or training will fall here.

Templates

Template for adding a new deity:

God X, God/dess of (Insert Trope Here) (Alternate names/Nicknames, Fan Nickname)

An image, if possible. Please use official art or a screenshot for a picture.
Rank: This can range from Quasideity, Demigod, Lesser God, Intermediate God, Greater God, to Overdeity, based on representation of power mentioned above.
Symbol: An image or icon used to represent the deity.
Theme Song: Official song (in other words, no fan music, regardless of quality) that usually is used in affiliation with the character. If the deity is a musician this will most likely be their Signature Song. If possible, give a link for reference, preferably on either a website like Soundcloud or YouTube.
Alignment: Good, evil, neutral etc. Forget about The Great Character Alignment Debate here, the Pantheon is one of the few places where you can assign Dungeons & Dragons alignment to characters that don't have alignment system. After all, the Pantheon is based on D&D and is made for fun.
For Pokémon deities only:
- Gender: Defines the gender of the Pokémon; if genderless, it instead defines what gender they identify as.
- Ability: Provides the Pokémon's ability. If they can Mega Evolve, the new ability is listed as well.
- Moves: Defines the four moves used by a Pokémon. A Z-Move may also be listed.
Portfolio: Tropes associated with the character.
Domains: Things that the character has influence over.
Herald: Non-ascended loyal character that is from the same series as the ascended character.
High Priest: Non-ascended like heralds, but not from the same series, and can serve as a worthy replacement in case something would happen. They can be served as part-time workers in case the originals are busy with some jobs. Co-Godhood is accepted depending on the approval of the originals, usually if the co-deity is from the same series.
Followers: Non-ascended characters that are not part of the Pantheon, but would probably worship this character by the fact that they share the ascended character's trope.
Relationships between ascended characters go here with your chosen character, it goes something like this:
- Allies: Members of the Pantheon that are allies, those that share the same values as them and would theoretically be friends with them.
- Rivals: Members of the Pantheon that are rivals, people who may look at your character with suspicion or a challenge.
- Enemies: Members of the Pantheon that are foes, those who would see your chosen character as a threat, either on their pespective or yours.
- Additional Character Relationships: Members of the Pantheon that do not fit in various relationships (examples include Enemy Mine, Vitriolic Best Buds, Teeth-Clenched Teamwork, Headbutting Heroes, Friendly Enemy, Friendly Rival, Just Friends, etc.), allies, rivals, or enemies.
- Partner: Defines a partnership with an ascended deity and Mon-type. (if any)
- Feared by/Fears: A deity whom the members of the Pantheon notably fear or are feared by.
- Respected by/Respects: A deity whom the members of the Pantheon respect or are respected by.
- Opposed by/Opposes: Not necessarily the same as "Enemies", but this is used for any deity whom the members of the Pantheon directly opposes or is opposed by (basically the opposite of "Respects") terms of certain viewpoints, regardless of alignment.
- Pitied by/Pities: A deity whom the members of the Pantheon feel pity for or are found pitiable by.
- Conflicting Opinion: Sometimes, the Deities argue over specific themes and philosophies.
Add the Intro. The intro is made up of two trivia, the Ascension Text (or just the Ascension) and The Bio. Both are necessary, but which order you use for them may vary depending on the profile in question. It may be better for one profile to have The Bio first and the Ascension second or vice-versa, although for the most part the order is irrelevant:
- The Ascension Text: This the story of how the character got into the Pantheon and/or was ascended. There are many ways for this to happen. They may be tricked into it or have simply wandered into the Pantheon, they may have had an already ascended character bring them in, they may already be in the Pantheon (via being another deity's Herald or sharing a trope) and got "promoted", or some combination of the above. Anything is possible in the Pantheon, so use your imagination, but try to incorporate their trope into the story, if possible.
- The Bio: A brief synopsis on the character's backstory. No need for the character's entire life/production history, but just give enough that those who don't know the character can get an idea of how the character works.
Now add some random trivia/facts about events/alignments/moments/fights/friendships/relations etc.
And some more trivia/facts.
And a couple of more.
- Note: Standard amount of flavor text for Deities/Characters is 10-15 (15-20 for group profiles) at minimum to 20-25 (30 for group profiles) at maximum.

Template for Dominions profiles:

Place X, Place of (Insert Trope Here) (Alternate names/Nicknames, Fan Nickname)

An image, if possible. Please use official art or a screenshot for a picture.
Theme Song (Optional): Not important as compared to Deity and Dominion profiles but a notable mention if there is an accompanying song in use with the object.
Alignment: Refers to the dominion's role in their story, be it those used by villains or used by the Player Character.
Portfolio: Tropes associated with the dominion.
Domains: Things that the place has links to.
Relationships (Optional): Unless the location has a connection with a specific deity, relationships are optional and may not be required. However, if there are deities linked to the same series as where the dominion is linked to, note them using the relationships, this includes deities that theoretically have interest with said dominion, good or evil otherwise.
Add the Intro. Here the introduction of the Dominion is added with some tidbits regarding the origins of its' creation and usage in the story. You can also add what made it popular/iconic/important here.
Now add some random trivia/facts about events/alignments/moments/fights/friendships/relations etc.
And some more trivia/facts.
And a couple of more.
- Note: Standard amount of flavor text for Dominions is 10 at minimum to 15 at maximum.

Template for Treasure profiles:

The name of the item in here (Alternate names/Nicknames, Fan Nickname)

An image, if possible. Please use official art or a screenshot for a picture.
Appearance: A shortened description of the item's looks with some notable features also mentioned.
Class: Refer to the Treasure Classification System in the Great Treasury.
Alignment: Refers to the objects' role in their story, be it those used by villains or used by the Player Character.
Theme Song (Optional): Not important as compared to Deity and Dominion profiles but a notable mention if there is an accompanying song in use with the object.
Museum Check: A note that says whether the item is viewable by the public.
Portfolio: Tropes associated with the item.
Domains: Things that the item has links to.
Relationships (Optional): Unless the item has a connection with a specific deity, relationships are optional and may not be required. However, if there are deities linked to the same series as where the item is linked to (especially the original owner of the item), note them using the relationships, this includes deities that theoretically have interest with said object, good or evil otherwise.
Add the Intro. Here the introduction of the Treasure is added with some tidbits regarding the origins of its' creation and usage in the story. You can also add what made it popular/iconic/important here.
Now add some random trivia/facts about events/alignments/moments/fights/friendships/relations etc.
And some more trivia/facts.
And a couple of more.
- Note: Standard amount of flavor text for Treasures is 7 at minimum to 12 at maximum.

Regarding my nomination for Fall and David for The "The" Title Confusion, I don't suppose anyone would mind if I also included Mah Yun and Marco Tousi? The former was an early antagonist that soon went to the Hierophant for a later job and the latter is an old friend of David they save from a basilisk. Its also later revealed they're a couple and become engaged. They become mainstays during the end of the heist for the Hierophant's reliquary.

Originally, my intention was to ascend the two under Conscience Makes You Go Back later on because Marco partaking in the heist with Mah Yun to steal, he ended up coming to blows with David and despite blowing up at him he felt awful for leaving him to die to the lich. Mah Yun notices and didn't intend for him to participate if she knew an acquaintance of his was involved and supports him doubling back and savind David. Consequently, they find out the Hierophant is an Omnicidal Maniac and they opt to call off the deal. But since that again leads to them joining the duo can I just add them to their profile as well?

So here's a first draft for the Dragonsbane. Pretty cut and dry, they're deadly alien flowers spread by Dragons that are toxic to the touch and corrupt things into monsters. They can grow pretty much anywhere and are only dispelled by the deaths of dragons. Also comes in black, blue, and pink which are spread by some of the corresponding True Dragons and are much deadlier.

Appearance: Alien flowers with blue bodies and often red petals.
Class: 2
Alignment: Chaotic Evil

Domains: Flowers, Terraforming, Poison, Monsters, Corruption
Portfolio: Alien Kudzu spread by Dragons to terraform the land and soften up its inhabitants for them, Twisting nearby entities into monsters, Can grow large enough to block the path, Disappearing as nearby Dragons are killed, Also designed to weed out strong candidates capable of becoming Dragons themselves
Unholy to: The Dragon Hunters and just about anything that isn't a dragon
When the Dragons swoop down from the sky and wreak havoc upon the land they don’t just leave behind piles of bodies and destroyed infrastructure. In their wake mysterious flowers bloom across the land, and their very presence is a blight upon the planet. Not only are they toxic to anything that isn’t a dragon but they also have the habit of corrupting beings into hostile monsters, both of which have the effect of making the Dragons’ planetary conquest easier. They are only able to be truly eradicated following the deaths of any nearby Dragon in the area upon which they will disappear without a trace.

King Ghidorah is a space-dragon who has a habit of being an invasive destroyer and one iteration sees him using his powers to terraform Earth to kill everything in the planet and see himself as the only living being left. He's intelligent enough to know what Dragonsbane is and would express some intrigue for it.

Given how the Dragonborn has the "soul" of a dragon, it would be interesting to see how he would react to it, though much like any dragonslayer, he would attempt to destroy them by killing any nearby dragon associated with Dragonsbane.

@RJ — for Red Son Superman, but a for Evil Morty; Wootzits makes a good claim about how dubious something like "leaving a universe" sounds like a humble goal and even without the suggestion idea PhantomFire has noted down, the trope itself has several alternate ideas to search for in its page.

Acnologia hates humans and dragons, so he'd be very conflicted about the Dragonsbane. Maybe something involving Phazon given its corruptive spread. The Mane Six dealt the he Poison Joke, a flower that afflicts people with strange and debilitating effects after a day of contact.

I have no issue with adding those characters to David and Fall's profile.

Last page I made some proposals, but only RJ gave them a and no one else commented on them so I’m gonna post ‘em again.

Emmet Brown currently has Time Machine, but his profile is pretty poor and short, and I’d be up for reworking it. The reason he should keep Time Machine is because of his building of the famous Delorean time machine, as well as building another time machine out of a train. Doc Brown and Back to the Future as a whole is often associated with time machines.

Well... the example I am most aware of: The cast of My Brave Pony: Starfleet Magic. Definitely not all of them, just the "noteworthy" ones.

I know this isn't a full proposal, I'm just testing the water to see if anyone is receptive to the idea before I fully propose it.

Say by any chance is Unwilling Roboticisation taken? Because a while back I proposed Yatsu and Tomoo from Sci fi horror Cult Classic Tetsuo: The Iron Man for it, as the premise is based on a guy slowly mutating into a machine(Tomoo) thanks to a cyborg madman(Yatsu), but I wasn't sure if I ever got approved for a profile.

Interestingly, the movie's premise is similar to Poor Tim Barnett's ordeal.

Jonah is a character from comic books The Beano and The Dandy. He is an unlucky sailor that goes onto ships only for his luck to cause something to happen that makes the ship sink. He has been on one hundred and thirty-seven ships that have sank soon afterwards. He causes fear in any sailor who recognised him because they know that the ship he is on will sink.

I have another proposal to make for everyone!

Grand Ruler Celesto or Lightning Dawn^note High Evangelist of Fanfictions Hating the Source Material

The entire premise of My Brave Pony: Starfleet Magic is based upon its author's burning hatred over the original cartoon, and desire to see it "done better", thus he created his very own universe that ultimately crosses over with FiM and goes out of his way to present Starfleet (No, not the one belonging to the Federation) as being "better" than the Equestrians in every imaginable way. I can't think of anyone who would fit this better given how these are original characters, not canon characters that have been warped beyond recognition.

I'm not gonna get in trouble for being unable to decide if the main character Lightning Dawn or the Author Avatar Grand Ruler would fit better as the representative right? They are the ones who sort of approach having some degree of characterization (Not that they actually reach that mark but what can ya do?) so it ultimately came down to one of the two.

The self-proclaimed future Pirate King, Monkey D. Luffy’s strong heritage contrasts with his impoverished upbringing. He is the grandson of Monkey D. Garp, an acclaimed Vice-Admiral, and the son of Monkey D. Dragon, leader of the Revolutionary Army. Having eaten the Gum-Gum Devil Fruit and armed with a dream, Monkey D. Luffy set off to gather a crew and head for Gold Roger’s infamous treasure hidden in the Grand Line. Unlike many who sought the One Piece, Luffy does not mind the plentiful detours his Straw Hat crews had even if it was to help out strangers. It just so happens many of those detours ended up upsetting the entire geopolitically landscape. Luffy’s willpower and tenacity have wavered very little in his pursuit of the One Piece, and his strength and infamy reflected that this young upstart became one of the most dangerous pirates in the world. Though it has been only a good few two to three years for Luffy since his journey, the Pantheon noted how notoriously long and complicated this rubbery captain’s tale is. If someone had to condense his adventure across the seas, then maybe over a thousand chapters, past a hundred volumes, more than a thousand episodes, a few spinoffs, more than ten movies, and a potentially lengthy live-action show would do.
Luffy: Did we find the One Piece yet?
Brook: We did! Look! I have it right here!
Usopp: … That’s a swimsuit-
Luffy: So that’s Gold Roger’s treasure? It must be some majestic clothes if he hid it for so long.
Usopp: Sometimes, I wonder if Luffy’s brain neurons aren’t traveling at all due to the rubber.
Since his Gum-Gum powers derive from a Devil Fruit, Luffy is instantly sedated by water like all Devil Fruit users are. Granted, the benefits from his Devil Fruit are so incredible that the water weakness sounds like a footnote. Not only can he resist incredibly strong blunt force and be intact, but the speed at which he can deal blows with his elongated limbs is incredible. That is not even to mention his Gear system where he strains to life-threatening levels to have his body either get faster, get stronger, or both to completely decimate his foe. Furthermore, Luffy would boost his strength by learning all three forms of Haki and their advanced forms. His Observation Haki lets give him precognitive instinct sight. Armament Haki armors his body and breaks through the impenetrably. Conqueror’s Haki imposes his willpower onto others and signifies his capabilities to stand above all others. Luffy’s skillset may not be flashiest though Luffy is quick on his feet. He could find a way to demolish most foes in his way.
- It would be a crime not to mention Gear 5 which Luffy achieved in his climatic battle against Kaido. The result is Luffy being borderline invincible with the Toon Physics that affects not only himself but the world around him. A person could hit him as hard as they could and while Luffy feels the pain, his flattened face looks goofy. He could apply the cartoonish properties to everything around him too, leading to impossible things like him bouncing out of stomachs or turning lightning into solid trampolines. The greatest weakness besides water is how Luffy cannot maintain Gear 5 forever. The World Government feared Luffy would achieve such power, viewing him as the Warrior of Liberation they fear will awake. Luckily, they concealed their fears so barely anybody in the Pantheon knows the truth about his Devil Fruit and the joy it brought.
If there is one thing Luffy values more than adventure or food, it is his friends. Whether that be those he considered his family, his crew, or even somebody nice to him, he will fight for them to the bitter end. In turn, people acknowledge that Monkey D. Luffy may be a kid in over his head, but they also know that he has a good chance to be the Pirate King after Gold Roger. Even in the Pantheon, it is noted that even amongst the other Color of the Supreme King users Luffy has an attractive quality that draws people to him. His crew would attest that if it were not for that, Luffy’s faith in them cemented they will follow him to the ends of the earth. This foolish goodness had infamous pirates Trafalgar Law irked, Boa Hancock swooning, and Whitebeard impressed. It should also be noted that after the Straw Hats saved so many pirates at Dressrosa, the Straw Hat Grand Fleet was formed out of gratefulness towards him. Not that he wanted them, so the captains of his fleet bullied him to accept his metaphorical Army of Thieves and Whores or die denying. This spread of influence across the Grand Line had Luffy labeled as the Fifth Emperor of the Sea after causing chaos on Whole Cake Island. Then he was outright considered one of the Four Emperors later on after freeing Wano, which makes his starting on a crappy raft sailing from his village more impressive.
Luffy: We haven’t sailed for very long, but I know we’ve got each other’s backs.
His family is a strange one as many of them are not related to Luffy by blood. Luffy did not even know his dad existed, which underlined Dragon’s presence in his life (and Luffy’s lack of sex education). Monkey D. Garp was his only direct blood relative… who had him raised by a bandit and whenever Garp showed up, he put Luffy and his brothers through hell to train them as future Marines (that never happened). Speaking of his brothers, Portgas D. Ace and Sabo would have shared their lives with Luffy if they were not all split apart. Luffy, Ace, and Sabo know each other inside, being closer than many non-adopted siblings out there. It should be noted they all share the same fear of Garp, knowing his loving punches will hurt.
Shanks recognized Luffy was like his former captain with how the young boy repeats what Roger acts without having ever met him and also how Luffy desires to be the freest man across the seas. He gave Luffy that straw hat he’s infamous for that very reason, and will only meet Luffy again once he becomes a great pirate. Every say Luffy already has reached that status though the Emperors all know they should aim for higher. Although those who knew the era of the Rocks Pirates would believe Luffy also resembles the forgotten Rocks D. Xebec when it comes to crew dynamics. Rocks was impulsive, inane, and ambitious. The familiarity with both men is uncanny, and World Government propaganda ensures Luffy will get that horrid reputation as well.
Robin: It says in this paper that Monkey D. Luffy poisoned their water supply, burned their crops, and delivered a plague unto their houses. I wish the papers said things I did were this nice.
Jinbei: What horrible lies they tell about our captain! Of course, he won’t do anything like this.
Zoro: Eh, only the water supply part is true.
Marshall D. Teach is perhaps Luffy’s greatest foe even though the two have not directly interacted much. He may be natural enemies with Eneru and Donquixote Doflamingo, Akainu may have killed a member of his family, Charlotte Linlin and Kaido may have been his greatest obstacles in being considered one of the greatest pirates. However, Teach is also a natural enemy of Luffy in power, actions, and even personality. While Luffy is a bright sun, Teach is a dark abyss. While Luffy will do anything for his friends, Teach will throw any ally under the bus. While Luffy hates cherry pie, Teach gulps it down hungrily. The two will clash at their fullest capabilities one day, something the Pantheon dreads considering how unfathomably powerful the two became.
When it came to his fellow JUMP stars, Luffy is considered a paragon since his stories are the most popular in all of manga history at the moment, surpassing contenders like Golgo 13, Case Closed, and Naruto. The Straw Hat Pirates print more money than they ever will get to see (Nami is willing to take Toei Company to court for this). This makes Luffy see many JUMP family members come and go over the years, which makes the Pantheon special since he can reconnect to those who have been out of the spotlight. After all, Luffy is not the kind of person to forget his friends years later. However, there are some specific friends whom Luffy is closer to, and some he would rather avoid.
Luffy: I can’t beat Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo! He’s too powerful!
Sanji: Luffy, you already took down an Emperor! It isn’t like you to not fight someone.
Luffy: You don’t understand! He has an afro!
Sanji: Ya serious mah cap’n? Y’dead for real, brotha!
- Goku has frequently met up with Luffy alongside his friends and family like Krillin. The two are like brothers in how they eat, how they love to fight, and how they love the people around them. Luffy is also pure of heart like Goku, being able to ride the Flying Nimbus. Goku and Luffy have their Combination Attack called the Kamehame Gomu Gomu no Bazooha that nobody wants to be at the receiving end of. The two were even present to protect the Fuji Television building twice, with Eneru trouncing a Super Saiyan Goku shockingly well in a later assault. If Eneru somehow nuked Fuji TV… well, nothing of value would be lost for the heroes to be honest.
- When people saw Toriko team up with Luffy, people could only ask who the hell Toriko is and what is he doing with the future Pirate King. Although Luffy could get along really with even his enemies, Toriko stands out by appealing to Luffy’s love for food. However what makes Toriko different from what Sanji could provide is that Toriko searches for the most exotic foods out there, even if he has to wrestle apocalyptic beasts to do so. Toriko commands such admiration with his culinary skills that Luffy uses manners when eating his and Komatsu’s meals. Maybe some deity above paired these two fated warriors together.
- Naruto and Luffy have a close if competitive relationship. The two have similar aspirations of reaching a title and their kindness has brought them many allies together. Also, Luffy is pretty sure he thought Sanji’s real name was Naruto. Though to prove which one of them is the better person at… anything, Luffy and Naruto go all out when it comes to kicking each other’s butts. One fight that lasted a minute had Luffy the winner though that is not an indicator if Luffy can overcome Naruto most of the time. Granted, there is something Luffy has over Naruto that the Hokage does not have. Luffy has had a clear consistent progression in gaining power while Naruto has been inconsistent, especially as an adult. Both could become more monstrous in power, but Luffy does not have things like responsibilities or children weighing him.
When the Jump Worlds were being threatened to be fused, Cosmos commissioned the creation of Jump Force to get to the bottom of this mess. Not that their teaming up was unprecedented, though being forced into an organization was something not all of them were comfortable with. Especially Luffy who oddly did not smile at throughout being the leader of Team Beta (members: Sanji, Boa Hancock, Boruto Uzumaki, Kenshiro, Vegeta, Ryo Saeba, Kenshin Himura, Kurapika, and Deku). At least the person who apparently could help against this crisis, Director Glover, can help them. Luffy is sure this man was not the evil mastermind behind this whole ordeal, a strange case of his good character reading being off at this case. Luffy was going to induct all members of Team Beta into his crew, though they respectfully declined since they did not want to be dragged into Luffy’s insanity. Except Boa who got dragged back to Amazon Lily before she can abandon her people for the D.
People will believe Luffy will go to space one day. Not because a Sky Lord is up there, but because Luffy might tell his crew to head up there. In a weird return to the White Sea, the Straw Hats ran to Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger who thought they were some run-of-the-mill pirates in the way of scouring the Sky Islands for treasure. Soon enough, the two pirate crews started fighting each other and even with the Sentai powers at their disposal, the Straw Hat pirates were ruthless foes in their assault on Sentai's ship. The Straw Hats thought they were agents of Germa 66 in turn, though they only stopped when Luffy noticed they had a cool robot bird with them. Clearing up the misunderstanding, the two crews acclimated well to each other even though Luffy and Captain Marvelous looked like they wanted to strangle each another. A fight nearly broke out again when the Gokaiger tried making the Straw Hats pay for damages, which Luffy almost said yes to (resulting in his crew beating the crap out of him).
Luffy does not intentionally kill people to prove his point. He likes crushing their dreams instead of making them live their lives unfulfilled, knowing that his passion outshone all of theirs. It sounds cruel on the Straw Hat's part though he admires people who go after dreams especially if they have to grow to achieve them. If the path seems too easy, then they are probably on the wrong path. Luffy applies it to several figures he detests. Ozai's dream of Fire Nation supremacy? Loser lord. Frieza and immortality? Blasted (came back though). Acnologia want to destroy everyone? Dragon slayed. Kang wanting to conquer? Ants. Luffy says if they have dreams that make them trample on people, then they all ought to back up said dreams with determination. The fat pharaoh back at Impel Down was more determined to win than they were at their defeats.
Luffy: I just punch things until everything goes right. What are your excuses?
Clips of Ozai having his bending taken away, Frieza being cut in half, Acnologia being paralyzed by an entire continent's population, Kang being kicked out by his counterparts are played.
If something catches Luffy's interest, he will go after it with no hesitation. He would probably jump into lava if there was something shiny there. When going to a floating restaurant, Luffy saw those cool animatronics perform and he wanted one. Rightfully believing that they were alive, Luffy went at nigh with the hopes of getting these new creatures with a net as if they were zombified trees. The Freddy Fazbear's mascots were trapped in the security room for the night, staving off a maniac who paused when the security camera stared at them because he thought it was Red Light, Green Light. Luffy sometimes goes back to the pizzeria at night now and again, and so do animatronics who have to hide behind cameras again to save themselves from a maniac.
Those who use lighting as their main source of offense like Gigavolt Man-O-War and Kracko found themselves in a very punitive position of fighting against a pirate made of rubber. It was as if fate was mocking them when they came across Luffy and tried shocking him, only to be met with a fist to their face. It is strange as the voltage output they are capable of should damage even rubber though Luffy can withstand it all before ducking their faces with a Haki-infused punch. They wonder if perhaps they should have been born to be more watery to deal with this issue, something that they are unaware would give them good legs against Luffy.
To reflect how he is a simplistic dude, Luffy picks the most standard character in a video game. That is why Luffy picks Mario when playing Super Smash Bros. as he is saving his brain cells for actual fights. There is also the commonality that the two are adventurers with relatively simplistic abilities though packing gigantic depth with their capabilities. Luffy may have dressed as Mario alongside his other Straw Hats being Mario-related individuals. Luffy thinks Mario’s power must come from being a plumber, so he tries his hand at the job. Luffy almost sank his ship and crew, then got rightfully beaten up by the latter.
Luffy thinks that the sailors Popeye and Bluto are Marine members. Not that he is far off as they are lawful boatmen who have fought off pirates beforehand. What irks Luffy about these two is that they carry a sense of extreme pride that clashes with his pride as a pirate. Also, Straw Hat is an iconic meat lover. He will likely eat Chopper if it comes down to it. He might eat anything, but how could spinach empower a person? When Luffy ate the spinach, he had to eat his own words upon seeing that he was cracking the earth as if Whitebeard stepped on it.
When hearing there was a sponge underwater that cooked burgers, Luffy nearly dove into the sea to get that experience. Fortunately, his crew had those diving suits ready for him and Luffy was able to get to the Krusty Krab. He thought Bikini Bottom was a weird offshoot of Fishman Island the entire time. Did you think Luffy went through the front to get into the fast food establishment? When he crashed into the roof, Krabs forced Luffy to work repairing it. Luffy formed a strong bond with Spongebob, basically trying to goad the chef into joining his crew but Spongebob declined since being at minimum wage is what he wants his life to amount to. It was when Krabs came in, learning Luffy was looking for the legendary One Piece when Krabs dressed up as a pirate, willing to forfeit his restaurant and navyman integrity for riches beyond his wildest dreams. Luffy just dipped after eating all the Krabby Patties, leaving Krabs chasing Luffy down to join the Straw Hats.
As a result of Luffy’s antics, the entire Pantheon was forced to adapt to his presence. Not to say that Luffy is the center of the Pantheon, though he finds himself in so many bad situations in the place that people started manifesting Haki just by observing Luffy. Many telekinetic, precognitive, and psychic abilities could already be seen as Observation Haki. Piercing physical strength could considered Armament Haki as is. The Conqueror’s Haki belongs to charismatic people with strong presences. Instead of relaxing on these labels, some decided to match Luffy by learning Haki themselves. Sometimes, they take a page from Luffy’s book by manifesting Haki as they are dueling with him. One notorious case was when Luffy crashed into Melkor’s celebration, beat up some dragons, demons, and orcs, and then challenged Melkor directly since the God of Evil served cherry pie. Melkor much to the horror of everybody, awoke all three forms of Haki in this one single fight.
Luffy: Looks like you have Conqueror’s Haki too? Just like that Cosmos lady, Sora, and the spiky-haired eye weirdo. Gotta hand it to you… uh… Melvin?
Melkor: My domain will be last place you will see, you disrespectful ant.
Monkey D. Luffy escaped from Melvin’s an hour later.
For as dense as Luffy is, he is an excellent judge of character. He was able to discern Robin was not as villainous as she displayed when they first met. He even managed to discern something was wrong with Blackbeard with Zoro even though neither side knew their true identities up to that point. His character deduction was not flawless, as Luffy was not able to realize Pudding's manipulations right away until she told him, though that could be chalked up to how good a liar Pudding was or Luffy being too busy eating houses to notice. What Luffy was dead on though was analyzing Eren Yeager, perfectly being cautious around the young man when they first met. Eren is by all accounts, an unassuming individual on the surface which makes his more... proactive actions all the more surprising. Luffy just stared at Eren, emitting Haki all around, and simply said, "I know what you are." That freaked out his crew and everybody else around him, though Eren himself just simply scoffed at the Will of D bearer.
Seeing how Luffy is called the Warrior of Liberation for freeing so many societies from corrupt tyrants, he tends to jump right in to overthrow an entire society without thought through overthrowing their leader. One such case was with Oliver Twist where Luffy was enraged that a kind friend of his lived in a place where he could not eat all he wanted. So Luffy went to confront whom Oliver pointed to his country’s monarch, Queen Elizabeth. Luffy would have gone after Queen Victoria, so he would have to settle for the next best thing. The pirate thought that he would face a strong fighter but was surprised when with one Gum-Gum Pistol, the queen went in one harsh strike that made him feel guilty for giving. Oliver Twist got the food he wanted, though Luffy may have instilled a hatred against pirates in the English royal bloodline forever. Hopefully that Queen Victoria he wanted to face will not hate pirates to a genocidal degree.
Eiki Shiki is frustrated with Luffy.It is not her place to enforce what the World Government finds unlawful, though she sees the Straw Hats as the pinnacles of causing a mess. Some big conflict blows up whenever they are around and that is a security, no matter how justified. She tried to have Luffy promise to not cause a mess for the Pantheon, as she thinks he will one day challenge those above even her authority. Not that this worked, much to her frustration.
Luffy: I wanna be free? What’s wrong with that?
Eiki Shiki: Luffy, there is being free, then there is not taking a shower. Take a bath!
There have been those like Junko Enoshima and Johan Liebert who tried to bring despair to Luffy with words. The amount of people who tried to pull this on Luffy is concerning, as it gives credence to the old thinking the younger generations are dumbasses were right. Luffy is emotionally destroyed by something that happened with Ace, and he deals with that. If someone wants to get across something to Luffy, they better show hands. The two Js getting a rubbery fist to their faces and their complete shock at the impact made the universe feel cathartic.
When Dokuro tried beating Luffy up when seeing his “family jewels” (Luffy ran around without pants after Usopp took them). She was horrified when she saw her blunt weapon not doing jack-diddle to Luffy, making him an invincible pervert. Truly an unexpected blemish to God’s sandbox. Luffy’s crew wondered why a big-breasted young lady kept following them around and smacked their captain’s butt with a club repeatedly.
Knowing Luffy wants to be King of the Pirates, Haruko Haruhara wants to challenge Luffy who wants that title for himself. Seeing as Atomsk was an Eldritch Abomination more than a traditional pirate, she wanted to see if Luffy was willing to cast even his mortal coil to see it. She does not have any deeper meaning besides it being an interesting development. Her insistency goes as far as to roleplay as a pirate herself to make this happen. This usually begins by crashing her bike into their boat. The amount of times she has been thrown out can be compared to how many times Luffy's crew beats him silly.
There is an incident where Luffy is trapped in the Helheim Forest and as usual, he decides to go eat the Helheim fruits there. Turning to an Ives seemed like it would be Luffy's fate but he did not succumb. He just kept eating more and more until his crew got him back. Not even Kouta Kazuraba who is the ruler of the Ives does not know why this is the case. The only theory he has is that there must be "the devil" in Luffy's veins, nullifying the effects of the Ives. Kouta Kazuraba even popped up in front of Luffy, giving his crew a pile of Helheim fruit and telling their effects, only to be startled when he saw Luffy eat them all again. Making their reindeer and archaeologist eat Heheim fruits confirmed that it is a shared eccentricity between Devil Fruit users that they are immune to becoming Ives. If there is a mystery the man of the Beginning does not have an answer for, the mysteries of the Devil Fruits are something he must investigate himself.
Luffy: You can the guy who makes food in our crew!
Sanji: I'm already the chef!
At some point in the long ago past, the Devil Fruit user and Kuuga helped each other out. Not Monkey D. Luffy and Yusuke Godai, but the original Joy Boy and Kuuga. They were good friends to each other, fighting off Grongi and the high seas. The circumstances that led to their friendship are unknown, though one could guess they bonded over fighting off enemy after enemy and got drawn to each other's natural charisma. This extended to the inheritors of their will and when Luffy and Godai did meet, they got along super fast. They call each other brothers already, much to ''everybody's'' confusion.
Darkseid recognizes Luffy as the "Warrior of Liberation" and seeks to snuff him out. Not just by killing Luffy but by making everyone fall away from the hope and freedom he brings. His not using the Anti-Life Equation is due to Darkseid knowing it will not work on Luffy as he has seen before. Many years ago, he fought against Joy Boy in battle through one of his incarnations. Using the Anti-Life Equation, Darkseid enslaved everybody on the battlefield to his will. All except for Joy Boy who promptly snapped everybody out of it by decking Darkseid in the face. He was forced to retreat then and questions of why it did not work plagued the New God's mind. It is not as if there were none he ever encountered who did resist it, though Joy Boy took him by surprise with no struggle. Darkseid believes that the Warrior of Liberation being the personification of freedom ensured that it gave him high resistance to the Anti-Life Equation if not outright immunity. Now that Joy Boy is gone and Monkey D. Luffy has taken his place, Darkseid awaits when he will do battle again so that he may show existence that his tyranny triumphs over all.
Luffy: Darkseid? He has to get through me if he wants to become King of the Pirates first!
Nami: I'm going to die young, aren't I?
Euron Greyjoy goes extreme even the pirate expectancies. The amount of rape and killing puts many pirates to shame, which makes coming across Straw Hat to be an irksome experience for him as his pepper attitude goes against the cynicality his worldview shares. When demanding that no Ironborn would be like Luffy, the Straw Hat replied he's a different kind of pirate. Luffy believes that being a pirate is not about raiding villages, it is about adventure. Euron Greyjoy first picked his ear if he heard that come from somebody's mouth out of disbelief before drawing his sword. Luffy simply tossed Greyjoy overboard in response. Greyjoy would thank his religion that all of the witnesses were mutes so they may not speak of his humilation.
Steven Universe and Luffy became fast friends, as Steven thinks Luffy is a cool fighter like the Crystal Gems. Not that this is far off as Luffy is a proclaimed enemy of a totalitarian government. Luffy and Steven could be called opposites in their ways. A rubbery confidant hero against a compact anxious hero. Except Luffy likely has a few legs up since he can get hard whenever he goes. Luffy wanted to ask if he could punch a defensive Steven as hard as he could to see how far he could go. Steven obliged and the result? Nobody knows if his shield shattered against Luffy's devastating punch though it caused a tsunami warning by the impact alone. Luffy also was lucky that he flew into a rock and not into the watery abyss.
Considering that he is like a "monkey", it was inevitable, that Luffy would see himself facing the greater ape, a gorilla. That took the form of Donkey Kong, who was enraged seeing Luffy chow down on his pile of bananas. The two fought for two days and two nights, before realizing the Kremlings stored the bananas as they fought. Their adventure together to get the bananas back formed a strong bond between them, resulting in Donkey Kong and Luffy sharing a pile equally. That would be a heartwarming ending, though seeing the two be fat monstrosities that roll back to their loved ones was a sight to behold. The Straw Hats had to use Luffy as a cannonball when the World Government came after them.
Night Raid does not have a high opinions on the World Government. The "heroic" governing body protects the depraved elite class, employing the bloodthirsty murderers to their ranks and the other factions are superpowered bandits. Seeing as Night Raid is friends with Monkey D. Dragon, they were initially disappointed seeing Luffy was part of the latter powers but changed their tune when they saw him challenge the World Government and rival pirates alike. They believe Luffy will flourish in active rebellion though have to just observe him walk into fighting who they would want him to challenge rather than forcing him to fight. Luffy does not seek fights, though there is little indication he will stop when he does, which they are banking on.
One of the few to catch Luffy's eye when it came to recruitment for the Straw Hats was Finn Mertins who wanted to find that "romance dawn" to new places. However, when Luffy said it meant leaving his loved ones behind, he had to refuse the offer since abandoning the people and places he swore to protect was not on his agenda. He has a girlfriend, a pretty cool dog family, and a drinking buddy to care for. Luffy understands, though had to answer Finn on how he could just leave everything he's loved behind him. Luffy being as confident as ever, simply said that if he can't go for his dreams, then it wasn't an ambition worth much either way. Plus, he finds new things to love on the way. Not that he disrespects all desires of people keeping to their roots. Then he remembered he was missing one Straw Hat.
Luffy: I miss her!
Finn: Why are you between the railings?
Though the two are opposites on the genius spectrum, Reed Richards and Monkey D. Luffy are used as the examples of some stretchy people out there. However, the sheer force of Luffy's power keeps him over Mr. Fantastic's more methodical uses. Even before getting Haki, Luffy can throw a mean punch. Their first encounter lasted a minute, with Luffy may have beaten Richards to a pulp. Luckily, the two became friends after Chopper patched the scientist up, with Luffy mistaking Richards as some deranged World Government member. The spandex screams lawfulness.
Perhaps all those who exist in solid matter can know the rubberiness of toons once they see when Gear 5 is activated. Like seeing Tom and Jerry or Peacock, Gear 5 brings the forces of exagerrated animation to all matter that surround him. Such newfound states of matter cannot be used against Luffy as he has absolute control over the world around himself in this state. The pain is certainly is real, though it does not look real if that makes sense. Judge Doom is absolute horrifed, saying Luffy is a "toon infecting our nation like a dirty immigrant." Not that Luffy cares as his Gear 5 is here to stay, whether anybody likes it or not.
When stumbling across Po and the Furious Five, Luffy thought these were some weird minks he was meeting with. Sensing strong energy from Po, Luffy wanted to see if Po can counteract his Haki balled into a punch. The panda took on the challenge the a fist of Haki met with a chi-infused paws. The result nearly nuked the surrounding area and the Furious Five being blown away by a... monkey (their Monkey was just as confused) and the Dragon Warrior they support. The Straw Hats and the martial artists got along well afterward, though even Po was intimidated by how much Luffy ate compared to him. He took it upon himself to get stronger to the horror of his team.
When Black Manta attacked Atlantis from the surface once again, Luffy thought the Fish-Men were being attacked again. Since he proclaimed it as his territory, Luffy committed what he swore to protect. As the other Straw Hats put on diving gear to combat the pirates underwater while the Devil Fruit using Straw Hat pirates attacked the submarine. Black Manta thought taking on a foolish young man would be easy, though soon found out the hard way when his laser was completely punched through by a blackened fist. Having sunk the sub, Luffy went down to see he did not protect Ryugu Kingdom at all. He was miffed at that until Aquaman gave him food for his troubles. Luffy found the food good but thought he would get meat, like fish or maybe a whale. The Straw Hats could see the king cringe as he turned Luffy down.

Toaster, Blanky, Lampy, Radio and Kirby are five sapient appliances who lived alone in a cottage in the middle of the country. Years before, they had a master, Rob, who made use of them, but they hadn't seen him for a long time and missed him dearly. The appliances decided to take matters into their own hands and go outside the cottage to find their beloved master. A lot of things happened and they came close to getting destroyed several times, whether by the natural elements or getting taken apart by a scrap collector, among other things. They reached the big city and the apartment where Rob lived, but the more advanced appliances living there mocked them and kicked them out. The five ended up at a junkyard, where they were almost crushed were it not for Toaster sacrificing himself by jumping into the crusher's gears. Fortunately, by this point Rob had been looking for the appliances as well, so he took them all home with him and repaired Toaster. Afterwards, Rob went off to college and took the five appliances with him.
- In college the appliances helped Rob retrieve his thesis after it was lost due a computer virus. They met a supercomputer called Wittgenstein living in the basement and, with the help of a rat named Ratso, fixed him by replacing a tube before he blew up, and he restored Rob's thesis. Later in Rob's life, he got married to his girlfriend Chris and the two had a baby called Robbie, whom the appliances referred to as the little master. Here's where it gets extra-weird: the appliances met an Hearing Aid that used to belong to Albert Einstein, whose house Rob's family was now living in. Hearing Aid accidentally sent Robbie to Mars through a space bubble, thus forcing the appliances to go on a space voyage to retrieve him. In Mars, they met a bunch of stranded appliances that wanted to blow up the Earth as revenge for being forgotten, but the sight of the innocent Robbie ultimately convinces them not to and to go back to Earth with the appliances instead. Then Toaster got to sacrifice himself again when they forgot to shut down the missile's countdown, but he was saved once more. Long story short, everybody got safely back in time for Christmas.
The appliances discovered the Pantheon when the little master Robbie accidentally wandered into it, thus necessitating the five to go get him back once more. Even though they had gone as far as Mars, this new dimension managed to be a whole new level of adventure for them. Most interesting to them was the fact that they were sighted by humans several times, but nobody made a fuss about supposedly inanimate objects moving around. Fortunately, they found Robbie safe and sound and having fun playing with some toys, which were also animate like them. The toys, led by Woody and Buzz Lightyear, warmly greeted the appliances and everyone got along splendidly as the Pantheon was explained to the latter group. After getting Robbie back where he belongs before the masters found him missing, the appliances were summoned to the Main House, where they were offered godhood. The five were rather happy at the chance to stick around this world where they didn't have to hide, but they also had to make sure they wouldn't be separated from their favorite people. Once they were assured that would not be the case, they were formally ascended.

Since the Toy Story characters are mentioned, you can also mention Lotso who like them was also accidentally left behind by his owner, but assumed that she abandoned him and grew bitter and hateful from it. Given that they were in a junkyard with soon-to-be-scrapped cars, there can be something with Lightning McQueen, Christine and Herbie.

For Toaster, SCP-426 is a toaster that makes others refer to it in the first-person. Given how Toaster had a nightmare about a Monster Clown, maybe something involving Pennywise and the Violator?

For Kirby, maybe something with Kirby the puffball as they have the same name and can suck things up. Roombo is a roomba-like bot that cleans up messes and kills home intruders.

For Blanky, Linus van Pelt loves his Security Blanket.

For Lampy, Missle from the Bad Future possessed a lamp and called himself Ray to help out Sissel in the present,

The nightmare known as "Harold" began when two simpleton farmers, Thomas and Alfred, decided to build a "doll the size of a man" to scare away the birds. Thus Harold was born, and he did wonders for the garden. In return, however, Thomas and Alfred soon began taking their frustrations on the doll, beating and mocking him whenever they felt mean. But Harold wasn't about to be passive. One day, after enduring more humiliation from the idiot farmers, Harold started to grunt. And grow. And walk. Frightened, the two men decided the best option was to flee from their creation-but they forgot the milk stools. Underestimating the doll, Thomas decided to whip back to the barn. Later, Alfred watched in horror as his murderous scarecrow tauntingly laid out the skin of a man on their hut. Harold hasn't been seen since...but one day, a lone figure of sacks and straw was discovered outside the pantheon gates. When it was brought inside to inspect, it started moving on its own and looking for someone else to lay out to dry.
Being a vessel of rage and revenge, Harold may seem mindless, but he can show a degree of cunning and adaptivity. He's also a little more sympathetic(as far as he can be) to abused souls who lash out with bloody results. As such he nodded with approval hearing of how Carrie White massacred her tormentors at Prom, as well as Agatha Prendergast's punishment of her pilgrim murderers. However both are terrified of him and keep their distance.
Both Jason Voorhees and Bubba "Leatherface" Sawyer see Harold as a kindred spirit, and he in turn is happy to show them his skin drying method. Pray, pray he's kept from getting the chance. He's also amiable to Michael "The Shape" Myers, who like him is a merciless brutal force with an emotionless visage. Myers is obviously not the kind of person to make friends but he does relate to others who express themselves solely through brutal displays of carnage and playing tense mind games with their prey. Harold sometimes observes the Shape in action to study more ways to inspire fear in his human victims.
The Entity, who currently employs both Michael and Bubba in its twisted "games" has offered Harold a spot in it's realm as a new killer. Harold declined, as just being around so many humans who always come back from death sounds like a nightmare to him. The Entity however offered to resurrect Thomas and Alfred as survivors so Harold has the joy of killing them as many times he likes. For a brief moment, the doll's scowl became a grin at the thought.
He's sometimes sighted with fellow monster scarecrow Fiddlesticks, but the latter makes Harold look quite insignificant due to his demonic powers. Harold is okay with playing sidekick nonetheless.
The Fabrication Machine has taken an interest in him, both because he's of similar nature to it's Stitchpunk enemies, and that they share a common hatred of humanity, especially those who mistreat their creations. Harold has served as muscle for "Fabby" so he can both spread terror on a wider scale, and be surrounded by artificial creations like himself for company.
Harold recently popped up outside a certain house in the middle of Nowhere. Courage rightfully freaked out, while Eustace mocked the doll's appearance and Muriel decided to employ him as a scarecrow. Courage spent a good deal of time thwarting Harold's attempts to murder his cantankerous owner. Fortunately Harold had no intention of harming the dog or Muriel because Eustace was the only one incurring his wrath.
He steers as clear of fire as possible, very justifiably so. Also, don't quote "Let's throw him in the fire" around Harold, what'll happen next won't be pretty. In particular if you're a pyromaniac Harold won't hesitate to make you suffer. He even pops up now and then around the Pyro's storming ground waiting for an opportunity to kill the masked menace.
Despite sometimes being compared to fellow homicidal doll-men like Slappy and Chucky, Harold wants nothing to do with them, particularly because they're huge bullies in and of themselves. Chucky doesn't care what anybody thinks of him, though he has complimented the Scarecrow's style. He also thinks Harold would make a great sidekick, as long as he doesn't turn on him like his doll "family." Slappy, who's less hands on, regards Harold as a dumb witless brute, and brags he'd never allow himself to be tossed around by dumb human yokels. Of course, he'd never say that to Harold's face.
The infamous park worker duo Mordecai and Rigby aren't happy with Harold around. They've dealt with plenty of evil animate objects, as well as heard a creepy story about a scarecrow who turns victims into Pumpkins. Harold is glad, as Thomas and Alfred were also a pair of menial workers who played tricks for fun. Rigby is especially scared of Harold turning him into a fur hat.
He's not fond of Birds in general, since they remind him of the indignity he suffered while owned by said idiot farmers. A certain group of birds has it out for humanity similar to him, but Harold just sees them as aggressive pests and will attack any who perch on him.
Being a living construct animated by rage and spite he gravitates toward similar beings. Constance the Monster House lets him perch on her lawn as deterrent to nosy kids, and he's also accompanied Robert the Tire on a few killing sprees. Notably AM, perhaps the most hateful of such an entity, sees Harold as kin, as they both unleashed hideous revenge on their human creators for using them as helpless tools. He also congratulated Harold for the terrifying fate he gave a bully in one reality. Harold isn't as depraved as Allied Mastercomputer and generally avoids him but he has expressed sympathy for the evil Machine.

Tim Barnett was once an ordinary young boy staying with his Grandmother during Summer vacation. While Biking around her farm, Tim discovered an orchard with the most beautiful apples he'd seen. He decided to steal a few, and was angrily chased away with a shotgun by the Orchard's owner, one Bill Cole. Later,as his Grandma warned him to stay away from Cole's property, the man himself barged in to reprimand the boy for trespassing and belittled His Grandmother, even tauntingly reminding her of Tim's late Grandfather. Furious, Tim vowed to get back at the old man for bullying his grandma and despite the warnings, broke into Cole's orchard to spell out "BULLY" with some plundered apples for Bill to see.
Tim ate one of Bill's prized apples to complete his victory, and that's where the nightmare began. Over the next few days, Tim found something bizarre was happening to him. He coughed up apple seeds, found a leaf deep in his ear, and Grandma's beagle Banjo seemed scared of him. Then strange bumps appeared under his skin and his belly coughed up a fresh apple Desperate for answers, Tim ran back to the orchard where he now perceived something horrible about the trees. Every one had a face, all unlucky kids who ate Cole's apples, as well as his missing Grandfather. Bark then covered the child's body as he was rooted in place, and the evil Bill Cole himself stepped out to watch Tim become the newest apple tree.
Rumors of Cole's dark secret soon spread with the many disappearances. He was eventually invited to ascend as representative of Trees with Human features due to the ghastly nature of his orchard. Cole was happy to take up business as long as his orchard was left alone. However, he wasn't alone. One of the trees , young Tim Barnett, was able to temporarily manifest a human avatar to interact with the physical world. Tim vowed to do whatever he could to thwart Cole and save others from suffering his fate. Bill was annoyed but smirked at the thought a sentient tree could do much of anything.
Bill naturally takes no responsibility for the lives his orchard claims and has stated they brought it on themselves by stealing his apples. This may be true, but his lack of real precautions and the sadistic glee he shows when his victims become trees proves this excuse moot.
Tim immediately gravitated toward Courage the Cowardly Dog and his elderly owner Muriel, largely because they remind him of his Grandma and Banjo. Courage was horrified by Tim's fate and sometimes visits his tree, while Muriel thinks Tim's "such a nice boy" even if she doesn't get that his true body is an apple tree. He has no liking for Eustace though, even if Eustace isn't as bad as Cole, and sometimes Eustace will find lines of apples spelling out taunting messages.
Bill can sometimes seen with the Coachman, a fellow old Child Hater who also transforms irresponsible children. The two men will often look for "naughty" children they can turn into either a donkey or a tree. Tim does everything he can to sabotage their efforts, and when the Coachman visits the Orchard, he usually gets projectile apples shot by a certain young tree at him.
Even sadder is when Tim was human, his grandma would bake great apple pie. Now he can't bare to even look at the fruit thanks to his condition. Snow White is unnerved as she also ate a cursed apple, but she does say Tim makes a beautiful tree. Alphonse Elric also knows what it's like to lose your human body and realized that he got off lucky compared to poor Tim. The two sometimes discuss all the things they missed about being flesh and blood. With his current Alchemic research, Alphonse hopes maybe to cure his new friend's condition.
Tim definitely relates to others who have suffered traumatizing transformations, even if the circumstances were different. Gregor Samsa appreciates the gesture, as he was transformed into a giant insect out of devotion to his family and is now helpless to protect his sister from the same fate. Tim remarked that at least Gregor could still move and talk after his metamorphosis. Kevin Levin, formerly Kevin 11, also admits that Tim's story reminded him of his monstrous alien mutation at 11 years old, the lowest point in his life. While Kevin wasn't a good kid at that age, Tim feels not even he deserved that.
Finn and Jake, the heroes of Ooo, were shocked to learn this new kid was avatar for a sentient tree, and just disturbed by his story. Especially since they encountered creatures called Fruit Witches with an MO similar to Bill Cole. Finn also described Tim as a "reverse Fern" being a boy who became a plant as Fern was a plant who became a boy. As a fellow dog loving youth, Tim warmed up to the duo and asked them to say hi to Sweet P Trunks for him(she sounds a lot like his grandma).
The existence of Allied Mastercomputer naturally terrifies the poor kid, as it's a godlike machine that specializes in inflicting eternal suffering through altering humans. By contrast, Bill Cole is intrigued, and although AM hates humans, it complimented Bill for having a level of extreme, sadistic malevolence that matched its own. Tim dreads AM discovering his home universe, especially with how many kids befell similar fates that AM could use to his advantage.
Cioccolata, a sadistic assassin with a deadly fungi based stand, has admitted he's impressed with Cole's work. He finds morbid art in the expressions of terror engraved on the Trees. His enemies in Giorno Giovanna and his team are on the other hand horrified and infuriated. Narancia Ghirga particularly relates to Tim as a hot blooded kid who hates bullies, so he's eager to pump Cole full of lead. While Giorno wants to revert all the transformed victims, he sadly noted that since he didn't know what their human bodies looked like, Golden Experience wouldn't be able to fully cure them. Even worse, Cole smugly stated that if they did anything to him, the orchard would die.
Tim also found a friend in Reimi Sugimoto, another kid who lost her life to a monstrous sociopath and is bound to an alley in Morioh as Tim is bound to Cole's evil orchard. Despite his limited movement, Tim has promised to help thwart Reimi's killer Yoshikage Kira as much as he can.
Although Pamela Isley isn't one to talk given she's dished out similar punishment, she's repulsed by Cole and his apples, in part because Cole uses his powers for selfish revenge on hapless children. As Ivy usually only targets people she deems enemies to Mother Nature and has shown a protective side to kids, she aches to turn Bill into fertilizer. He's also incurred the wrath of Swamp Thing, a more traditionally heroic Avatar of the Green. The beast can communicate with the souls of Cole's victims, including Tim, and has sworn to someday destroy Cole for the boy's sake. In return Tim agreed to help Swamp Thing against his nemesis Anton Arcane. Arcane is arguably even worse than Cole, but Tim feels he doesn't have much to lose.
Much to Bill's annoyance, some fools still mess with his orchard. One prankster named Woody loves setting booby traps around the trees and doesn't even eat the apples. He also once caught a certain beatnik and his great Dane about to chow on his beloved apples before chasing them away with a shotgun. Shaggy and Scooby were even more freaked out when they learned of the fate that almost befell them, and Mystery Inc is hoping for a way to catch the evil farmer.

Laetitia would only see that Bill is a cranky old man and give him one of her gifts to get him to lighten up, unaware the man's more vile nature. In reality, the gifts are pranks involving her bursting open from the giftee as a Deadly Prank though she herself is oblivious to its harm. Looking at it this way, despite not meaning to her prank can be seen as due karma for his cruelty.
