Welcome to the Trope Pantheons thread! Please read the rules:
- When writing a profile, take note of the following:
- The very first thing any contributor should do before working on an idea or a profile is to propose and nominate the idea on the Trope Pantheons discussion thread
. In the forums, you must discuss with other users on adding ideas and seek their approval with sound reasoning, a paragraph of reasoning to justify taking a trope should be sufficient. This is done to see if your proposal is the best representative and so, in case your profile is turned down, you do not waste time writing something that others might not find suitable. You can also get some assistance in the forum thread by either asking for help and those interested asking if they can help. Attempting to work on ideas without a nomination and at least one net thumbs-up will not be accepted regardless of how much you have written already. Submissions that are added without discussion are likely to be deleted and those who violate those rules by adding Pantheon content without discussion will get reported to the mods.
- If you feel the need to remove a character for some reason (poor quality, outdated titles, etcetera) and replace him/her with another or outright rework, please see what the other tropers think about this in the discussion thread before doing anything hasty. For reworks in particular, nominate the idea as you would with new characters or profiles. Use good reasoning to see if your idea can easily replace the character present without drawing out your statement or giving too ambiguous claims most do not understand.
- In the same vein, if you adopt a profile from another troper, it is recommended that you make an announcement that you have done so on the discussion thread
. More often than not, a trope that was reserved for something was given away to someone else. Check the Related tab on the top of a page to see if a trope or character has been reserved by a user, either in the Pantheon or the Sandbox sections.
- In the same vein, if you adopt a profile from another troper, it is recommended that you make an announcement that you have done so on the discussion thread
- If, for whatever reason, you are writing about a God who just happens to be a person in real life, just try to be very careful about what you decide to say. Do not try to make the editing seem too meta (self-referential) and use the creativity to create hypothetical scenarios towards fictional characters. Some real-life individuals, including content creators (fictional content created by them is still fair-game, but do not bring up the creators themselves in such cases), may be considered disqualified for profiles due to controversies that would make them concern the Rule of Cautious Editing Judgment. To determine where a current creator would be disqualified:
- Wait for at least a month after the latest significant update for a creator's controversy before any decision can be made. If a confirmation from the questioned creator (or associates) themselves occurs, then wait for a week.
- Immediate disqualification for either a guilty sentence in a significant court case against the creator, or evidence of consistently repeated, deliberate, and/or intentionally provocative hate speech and advocacy of dehumanizing perspectives, with lesser examples warranting caution instead.
- For creators with a clear persona of their character disclosed before any scandal, the persona can have a profile with no mentioning of their real-life information. Ambiguous existence of a persona would have to be discussed further hand for anything more decisive.
- For obvious reasons, gods cannot be followers, high priests, or heralds. The 'gods' have ascended meaning there is no need for said character to be a follower of another if they have ascended.
- No hype profiles, please. 'Hype Profiles' are profiles that have been made out of ongoing events and have not been around for a long time. This creates 'hype' due to popularity and certain elements either through certain scenes, memes, dramatic acting or considered overly awesome. They are not bad tropes but building a portfolio solely for that is a bad idea, as they do not say a thing about representing the trope best (unless it's those trope concepts that they are trying to embody for a long time)
- You can see one if the profile is only showing off how awesome they are or suddenly pushing how 'significant' they are thanks to the just very recent events rather than respecting the longstanding good representations of the trope. And usually having... minimum portfolio or flavor texts and being a bit too generalized or self-contained to events from within their home series instead of interacting with other Pantheon members.
- The very first thing any contributor should do before working on an idea or a profile is to propose and nominate the idea on the Trope Pantheons discussion thread
- When posting in the forum, take note of the following:
- When you suggest a God, please explain why they fit the trope. Not everyone is going to understand just "X should be the God of Y because they exemplify the trope" off the bat, especially if they're unfamiliar with the work.
- You must use the Trope Pantheons discussion thread
in the forums if you wish to add a new deity, story, something else of importance to the Trope Pantheon canon, or reworking an existing deity (be it simply improving their existing profile or changing their title).
- For new and reworked deities, 3
means the profile will have a one-week waiting period.
- For new and reworked deities, 4
is a 3 day waiting period.
- 5
is an automatic ascension for new and reworked deities.
- Speaking of reworks, for anyone that wants to improve such profiles, they have to review the current trope the character(s) has and see if it still holds up or if there is a better rep for their trope.
- For new and reworked deities, 3
- For adding new Treasures to The Great Treasury or new Dominions to the Dominions Expansion, the following rules apply:
- For new Treasures or Dominions, 3
is a 3 day waiting period.
- 4
is an automatic addition to the Great Treasury or Dominions.
- For new Treasures or Dominions, 3
- Do not repost a profile in the forums more than twice a day if noticeable changes have not been made in between. If a profile is posted a third time in a row without noticeable alterations, it will be downvoted. This is so spamming of no-effort profiles is less frequent and to prevent tropers from getting aggravated seeing the same profile over and over. The minimum acceptable change has to be one flavor text.
- The Pantheon is not a mouthpiece for you to voice your opinions on certain characters. You may like certain characters more than others, but do not make the mistake of making profiles for characters you like to look like Character Shilling.
- Every troper new to the Pantheon is barred from approving or downvoting profiles until they have ascended at least two profiles, this means avoiding the usage of "
" or "
".
- Do not include fan reception in any profiles. It has nothing to do with the character themselves and will create unnecessary conflict.
- Write a detailed explanation on why the character is the best candidate for the deity of that trope. If people disagree with you, do not force it on the people.
- Keep in mind that if you still want to try to find a trope for a particular character, you are only given three chances to find a particular trope for them. If a suggestion goes past three possible tropes, then it will come off as shoehorning a character into the Pantheon just for the sake of that character to be there.
- On a related note, even if a character does have a free trope being suggested, there is still a limit of three attempts for suggesting that character for that trope. If no one responds to that certain proposal after being posted three times, then it will get to the point where the idea will be seen as being shoehorned into the Pantheon. In addition, the idea needs to be considered acceptable and approved because they are good, not for the sake of pitying others. After all, no one is responding to their idea.
- You can also adopt a profile or idea to work on from another contributor by messaging a request to them (preferably through private messages). Even if you get their permission, you still have to announce your adoption to the forum. Note that if the idea wasn't nominated in the first place you still have to properly nominate it.
- When posting Pantheon related stuff to the wiki, take note of the following:
- Do not put a link to these Pantheon pages into the main wiki page. The moment you want to note in a trope example that the character is a God of this trope, do not do it. If you see leftovers of this practice, correct the situation by deleting the offending text. This goes for any non-Pantheon page. The only exception to this rule is if a page in the Pantheon could be confused for a page in Main, like Good Colors, Evil Colors and Pantheon.Good And Evil Colors.
- Do not bring things that would incite fights; hot topics and 'urgent' news are not pertinent to the Pantheon's mission. For example, the political scene and some really bad politicians. We are not here to fight each other, so don't suggest things that go in that direction, this is a fictional Pantheon after all.
- To add a Pantheon page for a certain work, 4 or more characters coming from the same series/franchise should be ascended before adding the page. For Creator specific pages, 4 deities coming from the same creator and 2 individual work pages coming from the same creator is the minimum to warrant a page.
- Do not create a trope page for a story until the story is fully completed.
- When writing a profile for a character, here are a few things to note:
- Please refer to Text Formatting Rules when writing a profile, since understanding how to make and edit site pages in general is a necessity for working on profiles or other Pantheon content. Additionally, if you are not experienced with English, refer to this forum page
, as proper English spelling and grammar is expected.
- All deities should be sorted by their divine ranking. Put Overdeities on the top of the page and Quasideities on the bottom. Also, be sure to add them in alphabetical order by their first/given name (can be reversed if it is Eastern ordered). For a group, if there is no official name for them all list down all their names by order of relevance or (if too long to list) title them as Insert Name Here Main Characters or some other identifiable title along the same lines.
- The maximum number of tropes that a god can have is two, but do not try to abuse that fact. If you need to use a second trope to specify a certain thing about their position, that can be excused either because said character represents their trope choice very well alongside the first trope. It is still generally encouraged to only have one trope.
- A trope can only belong to one profile at a time. The only time two profiles can share a trope is if there are explicit variations listed in the trope page proper (e.g. Muscle Angst is held by both Biscuit Krueger and Chihiro Fujisaki as the former represents "Too Much Muscle" and the latter represents "Not Enough Muscle")
- If the character you are about to add to a House already exists in another, make sure to mention that this person has spots in another House as well. Up to 2 places can be made for a deity at most.
- For a character's theme song, try to avoid calling it "Theme of God X" or "Theme of (Show where God X originates from)". If possible, try to find out if the song has an actual name through research. Most importantly, it has to be part of their series' official soundtracks from the media. Do not list songs that are made by fans or outside sources. If they were not specifically used as music for that specific character, then they do not count. Furthermore, it has to be a general theme specifically made for that characters' appearances, not some generic music that plays for many other instances not related to the character in question.
- For images, when adding an image for your chosen character, it is highly recommended to use a stylized image that embodies the character or renders that also highlight a character's behavior (such as cool poses). Most images should be from the main adaptations of the character unless the images from the other media are of a higher quality than the adaptation. Unless it is needed, do not use fanart for images. If you are, please attribute it to the original artist. Due to the website's dark mode, removing white backgrounds from an image is paramount. This website
is suggested to do the background removal. If an image you have takes up too many bytes, it is suggestible to use this site
to reduce the byte size. If the byte is still too big, run the compressed image through other sites (or even the same one) to compress even further. Use wikis to look for better images, as even wikis for the series might not contain good official images.
- Creativity is your friend. While it is not recommended to get too ditzy at your ideas, it is best that when writing a profile for a certain character, do you think of capable scenarios between X and Y. Tip: do not use shallow examples (X wields a sword and Y wields one too) and try to think of relationships that make sense (i.e those characters that are shout-outs for another).
- Please refer to Text Formatting Rules when writing a profile, since understanding how to make and edit site pages in general is a necessity for working on profiles or other Pantheon content. Additionally, if you are not experienced with English, refer to this forum page
- Pantheon Content:
- Some series or genres will eventually have greater representation in the Pantheon than others. This is unavoidable, but a little diversity helps to make you not look like a shill. Try to ensure that if you add a deity from a popular series, make sure that it is because they are a good representative for the trope in question, and not just because they are connected to another deity in their respective canon.
- As far as deities from actual mythologies, there is generally an expectation to build the profiles off interactions from fictional portrays rather than basing it entirely from the actual myth. Therefore, a mythological deity should be more of a Composite Character whose main identity is from the actual myth.
- Occasionally there will be Gods that carry a title without a trope. This is not forbidden, but it is well-advised not to abuse them. The only house where trope-less profiles are wholly allowed is the House of Food. Mainly due to most food items lacking tropes, and adding tropes about said foodstuffs is slightly unnecessary. However, the character being ascended for their choice of food, or food-related thing must be a decently good representative of said item. (i.e their Trademark Favorite Food, or something that they are closely associated with In-Universe, or both).
- For Dominions and Treasures profiles, always consider what made those places/objects popular in the first place. Were they plot-important, identifiable imagery or have a unique aspect of it? Do not just bring regular objects under the basis of following a certain canon.
- Do not write in self-promotion or blatant advertising. Minor references to something are fine but writing that clearly intends to advertise something will not be given toleration.
- Some series or genres will eventually have greater representation in the Pantheon than others. This is unavoidable, but a little diversity helps to make you not look like a shill. Try to ensure that if you add a deity from a popular series, make sure that it is because they are a good representative for the trope in question, and not just because they are connected to another deity in their respective canon.
- For Profile Standards:
- Flavor text is used to describe certain things about a character, place, or object. To avoid short ones, it is recommended to write flavor text with 4-7 sentences that can fill around 2 lines each. Be warned that adding too many sentences does not equal good flavor text as it is not an essay of sorts (unless words are substantial and do add to the overall line).
- Character Profiles of a certain person should have the following:
- A portfolio that contains at least 7 (at the minimum) tropes describing their character.
- Flavor text count for a deity profile should have by minimum, 10 (depending on if the character in question has enough relationships/characterization) to 15 with a maximum of 20-25 for an individual profile.
- On the other hand, group profiles (profiles of a group that has 4 or more members) have their maximum flavor text count to 15 minimum, giving individual lines for the other members of the group (unless the members are not as characterized) up to 30 at max.
- Dominion profiles of a certain place should have the following:
- A portfolio that contains at least 5 (at the minimum) tropes describing the context of the place.
- Flavor text count should range at least 10 to 15.
- Treasure profiles (inanimate objects without a trope) should have the following:
- A portfolio that contains at least 6 (at the minimum) tropes that describes the object itself.
- Flavor text count should be at least 7 flavor text up to 12 to constitute a treasure profile.
- Overdeity: Omnipotent-level Reality Warper deities capable of manipulating the entire universe (or at least the world) at will. Within their own universe they are believed to be omnipotent, or at least impossible-to-completely-destroy embodiments or concepts.
- Greater Gods: High-level Reality Warper deities that are extremely powerful (capable of destroying or changing anywhere from a large city to a planet at will) and very strong non-reality warpers capable of doing the same thing.
- Intermediate Gods: Deities at this level are capable of strong but specialized powers such as hydrokinesis, pyrokinesis, etc. without major drawbacks and low-level Reality Warper beings capable of affecting their immediate area at will.
- Lesser Gods: Capable of highly specific or little power on their own, or suffer from Power at a Price. However, they may be able to ruthlessly exploit their power or combine it with just being badass enough to make up for it.
- Demigods: Badass Normal citizens of the pantheon, making up for their lower status with strength, strategy, and/or planning.
- Quasideities: Any otherwise normal human, human equivalent, or below without any special powers or training will fall here.
- An image, if possible. Please use official art or a screenshot for a picture.
- Rank: This can range from Quasideity, Demigod, Lesser God, Intermediate God, Greater God, to Overdeity, based on the representation of power mentioned above.
- Symbol: An image or icon used to represent the deity.
- Theme Song: Official song (in other words, no fan music, regardless of quality) that usually is used in affiliation with the character. If the deity is a musician this will most likely be their Signature Song. If possible, give a link for reference, preferably on either a website like Soundcloud
or YouTube
.
- Alignment: Good, evil, neutral, etc. Forget about The Great Character Alignment Debate here; the Pantheon is one of the few places where you can assign Dungeons & Dragons alignments to characters that don't have an alignment system. After all, the Pantheon is based on D&D and is made for fun.
- For Pokémon deities only:
- Gender: Defines the gender of the Pokémon; if genderless, it instead defines what gender they identify as.
- Ability: Provides the Pokémon's ability. If they can Mega Evolve, the new ability is listed as well.
- Moves: Defines the four moves used by a Pokémon. A Z-Move may also be listed.
- Portfolio: Tropes associated with the character.
- Domains: Things that the character has influence over.
- Herald: Non-ascended loyal character that is from the same series as the ascended character.
- High Priest: Non-ascended like heralds, but not from the same series, and can serve as a worthy replacement in case the deity would be unavailable, incapacitated, dead, or otherwise incapable of carrying out their duties. They can be served as part-time workers in case the originals are busy with some jobs. Co-Godhood is accepted depending on the approval of the originals, usually if the co-deity is from the same series.
- Followers: Non-ascended characters that are not part of the Pantheon, but would probably worship this character by the fact that they share the ascended character's trope.
- Relationships between ascended characters go here with your chosen character, it goes something like this:
- Allies: Members of the Pantheon that are allies, those that share the same values as them and would theoretically be friends with them.
- Rivals: Members of the Pantheon that are rivals, people who may look at your character with suspicion or a challenge.
- Enemies: Members of the Pantheon that are foes, those who would see your chosen character as a threat, either from their perspective or yours.
- Additional Character Relationships: Members of the Pantheon that do not fit in various relationships (examples include Enemy Mine, Vitriolic Best Buds, Teeth-Clenched Teamwork, Headbutting Heroes, Friendly Enemy, Friendly Rival, Just Friends, etc.), allies, rivals, or enemies.
- Partner: Defines a partnership with an ascended deity and Mon-type. (if any)
- Feared by/Fears: A deity whom the members of the Pantheon notably fear or are feared by.
- Respected by/Respects: A deity whom the members of the Pantheon respect or are respected by.
- Opposed by/Opposes: Not necessarily the same as "Enemies", but this is used for any deity whom the members of the Pantheon directly oppose or are opposed by (basically the opposite of "Respects", "On Good Terms With", and/or "Commonality Connection") in terms of certain viewpoints, regardless of alignment.
- Pitied by/Pities: A deity whom the members of the Pantheon feel pity for or are found pitiable by.
- Conflicting Opinion: Sometimes, the Deities argue over specific themes and philosophies.
- OPTIONAL NOTE FOR CHARACTER RELATIONSHIPS: Should the list for Character relationships (IE. Allies, Enemies, etc.) become too big, categorize a certain number of characters to a specific group putting them on a sublist (One example: Luigi is from the same world as his brother Mario, hence Luigi should be fall under the Super Mario Bros sublist.)
- Add the Intro. The intro is made up of two trivia, the Ascension Text (or just the Ascension) and The Bio. Both are necessary, but which order you use for them may vary depending on the profile in question. It may be better for one profile to have The Bio first and the Ascension second or vice-versa, although for the most part, the order is irrelevant:
- The Ascension Text: This is the story of how the character got into the Pantheon and/or was ascended. There are many ways for this to happen. They may be tricked into it or have simply wandered into the Pantheon, they may have had an already ascended character bring them in, they may already be in the Pantheon (via being another deity's Herald or sharing a trope) and got "promoted", or some combination of the above. Anything is possible in the Pantheon, so use your imagination, but try to incorporate their trope into the story, if possible.
- The Bio: A brief synopsis of the character's backstory. No need for the character's entire life/production history, but just give enough that those who don't know the character can get an idea of how the character works.
- Now add some random trivia/facts about events/alignments/moments/fights/friendships/relations etc.
- And some more trivia/facts.
- And a couple more.
- Note: Standard amount of flavor text for Deities/Characters is 10-15 (15-20 for group profiles) at minimum to 20-25 (30 for group profiles) at maximum.
- An image, if possible. Please use official art or a screenshot for a picture.
- Theme Song (Optional): Not important as compared to Deity and Dominion profiles but a notable mention if there is an accompanying song in use with the object.
- Alignment: Refers to the dominion's role in their story, be it those used by villains or used by the Player Character.
- Portfolio: Tropes associated with the dominion.
- Domains: Things that the place has links to.
- Relationships (Optional): Unless the location has a connection with a specific deity, relationships are optional and may not be required. However, if there are deities linked to the same series as to where the dominion is linked to, note them using the relationships, this includes deities that theoretically have interest with said dominion, good or evil otherwise.
- Add the Intro. Here the introduction of the Dominion is added with some tidbits regarding the origins of its' creation and usage in the story. You can also add what made it popular/iconic/important here.
- Now add some random trivia/facts about events/alignments/moments/fights/friendships/relations etc.
- And some more trivia/facts.
- And a couple more.
- Note: Standard amount of flavor text for Dominions is 10 at minimum to 15 at maximum.
- An image, if possible. Please use official art or a screenshot for a picture.
- Appearance: A shortened description of the item's looks with some notable features also mentioned.
- Class: Refer to the Treasure Classification System in the Great Treasury.
- Alignment: Refers to the objects' role in their story, be it those used by villains or used by the Player Character.
- Theme Song (Optional): Not important as compared to Deity and Dominion profiles but a notable mention if there is an accompanying song in use with the object.
- Museum Check: A note that says whether the item is viewable by the public.
- Portfolio: Tropes associated with the item.
- Domains: Things that the item has links to.
- Relationships (Optional): Unless the item has a connection with a specific deity, relationships are optional and may not be required. However, if there are deities linked to the same series as to where the item is linked to (especially the original owner of the item), note them using the relationships, this includes deities that theoretically have interest with said object, good or evil otherwise.
- Add the Intro. Here the introduction of the Treasure is added with some tidbits regarding the origins of its' creation and usage in the story. You can also add what made it popular/iconic/important here.
- Now add some random trivia/facts about events/alignments/moments/fights/friendships/relations etc.
- And some more trivia/facts.
- And a couple more.
- Note: Standard amount of flavor text for Treasures is 7 at minimum to 12 at maximum.

I am working to try and figure out a good description for the Hall of Transhumanist Archetypes (Transhumanism links somewhere else like back when Extraterrestrials was known as Aliens). I am also wondering where Yuu and Adam and Eve Plot would go
Alright then, I'll be putting Cardboard's early drafts of them in my sandbox as a base for them. I do have a question: what Hall would Escape Sequence best belong?
Ready to rock?maybe Gameplay? its not my final answer though, perhaps someone else has a better idea

"The part I feel most proud of is that we succeeded in affecting people without using words."— Yuji Naka@Whirl — Normally, I would have consented and wouldn't mind you doing Marin and Wakananote ... if it weren't for the fact that you give the impression that you aren't interested in profile-making these days. I honestly don't remember the last time you made a profile and I seriously doubt the possibility of whether you would be getting around to doing that profile in the first place, not helped by the fact that I haven't seen you make adjustments to what is expected for current profile standards these days. I'm sorry, but I have to confess that I don't have much faith in you.
You can surprise and prove me wrong someday, but for now (given your record when it comes to profile content), I will keep my expectations low.

WHERE IS KRYPTO, I mean, WHERE IS THE DOG!!!Added interaction with Henry Stickmin.

-
s: Excessive-Menace, RadioContactLine, CrimsonShark, Lawliet-saw-what (November 27th, 2024)
- House: Real and Legendary Pastiches
- Intermediate Deities
- Symbol: A 10 Hour Burst energy drink
- Theme Song: 10 Hours
- Alignment: Chaotic Evil
- Portfolio: Heavily consume the 10 Hour Burst, Dark Is Evil and Death, Evil Laugh, Person of Mass Destruction, Serial Killer
- Domains: Darkness, Consumption, Energy Drink
- Allies: NONE. The 10 Hour Burst Men are so dangerous and unpredictable that it's impossible to ally with them... Unless you count the Rampage Wrecking Crew, and even their alignment is very shaky at best.
- Enemies: Roland and Angela, The Lobotomy Corporation, The Sephirot/Patron Librarians (especially Gebura/The Red Mist), Punishing Bird, Judgement Bird, and Big Bird, Jotaro Kujo, the Neutral and Good-aligned deities of the House of School, Franchouchou (especially Sakura Minamoto), Jibanyan, Kazuma Satou, Dracule Mihawk, Saxton Hale, Doom Slayer, Angry Video Game Nerd, Foghorn Leghorn, Brand X, The Hedgies, several good-aligned Naruto deities, Ernie the Giant Chicken, Chanticleer, Pancho Pistoles, Cuccos, Robot Chicken, The Henpire, The SCP Foundation, The Spy, Buffy Summers, Henry Stickmin
- Fears: The House of Holy Authority and Power, just about any deity with holy powers in general, SCP-096
- The 10 Hour Burst is a product heavily resembling the 5-hour energy
drink. Unlike the real life version, however, drinking it provides the user with additional agility and jump power, but at the expense of their body becoming more vulnerable and extreme hyperpigmentation to the point that they resemble the mascot of the 10 Hour Burst bottle. However, this was not why it was banned from being sold at the House of Commerce; the following explanation below details the other reason why 10 Hour Burst is banned from being sold over there.
- One day, six sightings
emerged in the House of Law And Justice. These photos proved to be heavily disturbing, and is confirmed to be one of the first sightings of the 10 Hour Burst Men:
- The first sighting was a photo of two 10 Hour Burst Men in an unidentified person's apartment, getting what appears to be a 10 Hour Burst. The second sighting was CCTV footage of a 10 Hour Burst Man robbing a shopkeeper in the House of Commerce, and what appears to be a corpse of a civilian shot by the 10 Hour Burst Man. The third sighting was a photo of a 10 Hour Burst Man starting at the photographer in a forest. It is unknown what happened to the photographer afterwards. The fourth sighting was a photo of a 10 Hour Burst Man hijacking a jet stolen from the House of Military and Warfare. It is also unknown what happened to the jet afterwards.
- The fifth sighting proved to be one of the most disturbing of the 6, as it showed a 10 Hour Burst Man in a public school. Fearing the worst, several police officers arrived at the school seen in the photo, and when they finally got there at the Elysium Academy, they found that the only survivor was Haruka Kotoura of the ESP Research Club, who detailed in absolute horror the atrocities of the 10 Hour Burst Man. She was left a complete wreck for several weeks and had to be admitted in a mental hospital to be treated by several psychologists. The only thing they heard for weeks was the uttering of "monster...".
- The sixth sighting was a 10 Hour Burst Man coming out of the sewers to hijack a truck. The 10 Hour Burst Man then ran over 3 people in the process, with the known victims being Sakura Minamoto, Jibanyan... And amusingly enough, Kazuma Satou, who was somehow there when the truck approached him at 1 MPH, and being merely touched by the truck caused him to die of a heart attack. All victims over there noticed a sense of déjà vu, as this was not the first time they were involved in a truck-related accident (or encounters with Truck-kun as some may say).
- These sightings were enough to convince the House of Law and Justice that a serial killer was on the loose, but spreading of five stories
through the Pantheon was enough to organize an operation against them:
- The first story involved a man living alone in his house waking up to a noise that has disturbed him for weeks, and tried to investigate the source of the noise. When he couldn't find the source, he went back to sleep, only to be murdered by the 10 Hour Burst Man's Stand, which happened to be Star Platinum. This caused the police to investigate Jotaro Kujo for any connections to them. Jotaro signed and replied that this wasn't the first time someone attempted to impersonate him, but the fact that they managed to perfectly copy his stand was enough to wonder if somehow they managed to get ahold of a duplicate of a Stand Disc containing Star Platinum.
- The second story was a group of friends walking down a street late at night. Then, they would see a dark figure, a 10 Hour Burst Man, but not knowing who the figure was, one of the friends got closer. The friend who did get closer was kidnapped by the 10 Hour Burst Man, and was pulled into the shadows and never seen again. The rest of friends were last seen running for their lives.
- The third story has few photos of the 10 Hour Burst Man staring at their living room window. When the person who took the photos tried to get a closer look at them, they vanished instantly. A few minutes later, that person heard a knock on the door, and opened it, only to find nothing. They then proceeded to close and lock the door, but then the door suddenly unlocked itself. Not long after, the person's corpse in one of the photos was identified as the photographer, but what was really set the powder keg was the fact that somehow, the 10 Hour Burst Man seen in the photos was carrying the E.G.O. Weapon Twilight, which was enough to send the entire Lobotomy Corporation into a frenzy, with the organization investigating itself at how the hell such a powerful weapon was let loose in the hands of a serial killer. Meanwhile, for the Birds themselves, fearing that another monster arrived within their forest, once again combined into one singular bird, thinking that a terrible beast had infiltrated the Black Forest, resulting in agents having to once again suppress the Apocalypse Bird. They had once again failed to find the beast, and once again there were no creatures, no sun and moon, and no beast. All that was left was just a bird and the Black Forest.
- The fourth story proved to be incredibly disturbing. There, a recording of a family's living room late at night was found. In the footage given, the 10 Hour Burst Man's signature Evil Laugh was heard after drinking what appears to be a 10 Hour Burst. Then, another occurrence of this happened quickly afterwards, with the footage going blank afterwards. The family after the recording was made has not been seen ever since.
- The final story has a person saying "I'm going to steal your 10 hour burst" 3 times while doing 360 degree spins at the mirror. This has been an ongoing legend that if you do this, the 10 Hour Burst Man would appear and kill you. The man, not believing in the rumors that the 10 Hour Burst Man would appear and take your life if you do that, tried this. When he did do it, the 10 Hour Burst Man appeared and shot him to death.
- With this in mind, an operation was made to find and capture a 10 Hour Burst Man for further analysis at all costs. Luring out the 10 Hour Burst Man, one unfortunate agent from the Lobotomy Corporation was forced to say "I'm going to steal your 10 hour burst" 3 times while doing 360 degree spins at the mirror, causing the 10 Hour Burst Man to appear and shoot them to death. When they tried to escape, however, 12 agents were immediately waiting for them, resulting in them being chased to a section in a park not too far away from the House of Consumption (likely because there were several stacks of 10 Hour Burst there). Only one agent made it out of there, and the footage provided by them was heavily disturbing:
- Not along after they arrived, one agent was instantly caught by the 10 Hour Burst Man and dragged into the darkness. Soon after, the 10 Hour Burst Man quickly ambushed them with a dark sword, and two of the agents were killed by that sword, expunging them and causing their limbs to disperse in different directions. Then, it pulled its E.G.O. Weapon Twilight out and slammed it down, killing 2 agents. It then proceeded to pull out a shotgun to blast anyone who were merely stunned by the slam, killing 2 agents and then proceeding to unleash Star Platinum, killing 2 more agents.
- After the remaining three agents wounded it enough, the 10 Hour Burst Man suddenly drank a bottle of 10 Hour Burst. This resulted in it healing their wounds and then proceeding to punch an agent into the darkness, killing them instantly. Afterwards, it proceeded to unleash 5 purple javelins of lightning, with one agent killed saving the sole survivor of the incident. Eventually, after a fierce standoff, the 10 Hour Burst Man was finally killed by the last agent, who managed to successfully extract their corpse back to the Lobotomy Corporation.
- Upon dragging the corpse to the Lobotomy Corporation, what they found proved to be vital for containing the chaos they have wrought: The examination of their corpses found heavy doses of 10 Hour Burst within their body, and this heavy consumption has caused them to be defensively weaker, especially against who have holy powers. With this, another operation was made to finally contain the threat of the 10 Hour Burst Men once and for all: First, they banned any sale of all 10 Hour Burst products to prevent more people into becoming 10 Hour Burst Men, and hunting down those attempting to export contraband across the entire Pantheon. Second, with the help of a few people with holy powers, they managed to cull them until eventually, they were contained to one house in the Real And Legendary Pastiches, where they would be "rechristened" as Unholy Consumers of Bland-Name Products. With this, the Pantheon breathed a sign of relief that further disaster was avoided, at least for another week.
- It wasn't long before after their ascension that they noticed figures that had powers or resemble those similar to their home realm. This was no surprise given how much references were there. Because of this, the 10 Hour Burst Men have also begun to target various deities that resemble those in their home realm. These were by far the most notable:
- Given how much of the immense destruction and brutality reminded Gebura of her former home at the Backstreets of District 23, the aforementioned incidents involving Lobotomy Corporation was enough to nearly enrage her to a point not unseen since her Meltdown. Thankfully, her outburst wasn't that severe compared what happened last time and eventually calmed down. Still, that hasn't stopped her from introducing them to a Great Split: Horizontal once in a while. Clashes between them and the Red Mist are a common sight as a result.
- The 10 Hour Burst Men once attempted to disturb Mihawk while he was napping. This proved to be a massive mistake for them. Mihawk, being one of the former Seven Warlords of the Sea, wasted absolutely no time slicing all of them apart in spite of his weapon's heavy weight and the 10 Hour Burst Men's extreme speed. The ones that hadn't been killed quickly retreated afterwards.
- Unsurprisingly, they were no match for the raging Australian Saxton Hale. While the 10 Hour Burst Men are fast but fragile, Saxton Hale himself is not only fast, but also durable to boot. As a result, in spite of their impressive weaponry, each and every one of them that have attempted to kill him have instead found themselves beaten to death by his bare hands. The ones that didn't meet an end to his fists were instead either trounced by his Mighty Slam.
Saxton Hale: You might be fast, but you can't outrun my fists.- ...Really, you should have seen this coming when it came to the Doom Slayer himself. Unsurprisingly, they were ripped and torn apart the moment some tried to attack him, until it was done. Even considering the fact that he was already a One-Man Army and at his weakest, he still managed to obliterate an entire army ready to attack him. Considered that he has been fighting demons for a long time, they were mere roadblocks compared to the ones with bigger guts.
- In spite of the 10 Hour Burst being banned off the House of Commerce, several contraband operations have allowed some of the drinks to flow through the various supermarkets under different names. Brand X, in an attempt to stomp out what appeared to be a simple Ike at first, found themselves quickly on various "Missing" posters
◊. Needless to say, the fact that a single Ike proved to even more dangerous compared to every other single Ike they have attempted to exterminate resulted in teaming up with the "inferior" Ikes due to the fact that while they may be imperialistic grabbers, they are at least willing to keep the supermarkets safe for their own ambitions, which the 10 Hour Burst Men have no such qualms. Of particular notes regarding certain members of the temporary alliance:
- Hammy once attempted to drink one of the 10 Hour Burst bottles. Fortunately for the rest of the Hedgies, the PSA announcing the ban of the 10 Hour Burst was made one week prior to Hammy almost drinking it. This allowed Verne and RJ to successfully keep it away from Hammy before reprimanding him for nearly turning into something far worse. Hammy was saddened, but understood why he couldn't be allowed to drink it.
- Due to being a mascot based of their own drink, they're considered to be the Evil Counterpart of Pepsiman. While Pepsiman himself is a superhero dedicated to giving out cans of Pepsi to save people from a lack of Pepsi, the 10 Hour Burst Men are a group that consume 10 Hour Burst and cause enough chaos to cause lockdowns of entire areas. At one point, there was an attempt to swap both their 10 Hour Burst and Pepsi to see what would happen. The results remain classified to this very day, though given that another evil version of Pepsiman was seen attacking the Angry Video Game Nerd, this might be one possibility of such an experiment, and as such, the 10 Hour Burst Men has also surprisingly earned the enmity of AVGN.
- On a similar note, being people who gain massive power from drinking, the 10 Hour Burst Man has also earned some comparisons to Soda Popinski. While his soda was enchanted by Soviet Superscience, and the soda at the very least, while it does enchant its user significantly, doesn't change their mental psyche in any way, making it safe to consume. On the other hand, the 10 Hour Burst not only increases their user's agility, but also weakens their defenses and turns their skin dark while also apparently turning them into serial killers. The drunkard himself has vowed to never drink a single dose of a 10 Hour Burst, which is probably for the best.
- Even though he doesn't drink like aforementioned deities, Popeye also depends on his favorite food, spinach to grant himself extraordinary powers. But Popeye mostly uses these powers for good, while the 10 Hour Burst Men opt to use it to prey on their targets. Also, Popeye's spinach is very healthy, while the 10 Hour Burst probably isn't. While the 10 Hour Burst Men attempted to attack him, they heavily underestimated the old sailor, as once he pulled down a can of spinach, he was very quick to mow down legions of 10 Hour Burst Men that were coming after him.
- In spite of their fearsome power and reputation, they have one notable weakness: They can be easily be distracted by anything that can be summoned. Because of these, they're often used by other deities to help others escape from the 10 Hour Burst Man. Some examples include:
- The Shadow Clone Jutsu is able to spawn several clones of their own user to attack the enemy. Making it worse for the 10 Hour Burst Men, unlike in their home realm where their users could summon 2 clones at a time, the actual users could summon tons of them. Unsurprisingly, this has caused them to put several good-aligned Naruto deities on their kill list due to this. This is in spite of the fact that the power levels of the various deities would be too much for them to handle.
- Having bad experiences with various deployable chickens in their home realm, they are understandably hostile towards any Cocky Roosters. Notable examples include Ernie the Giant Chicken, Chanticleer, Foghorn Leghorn, Panchito Pistoles, Robot Chicken and The Henpire. They are, however, much more wary of Cuccos, and that's because attempting to attack one summons an entire horde of them that can be surprisingly hard to kill even by Cucco standards. That hasn't stopped some from trying anyway, and suffering the wrath of the Cucco as a result.
- Surprisingly enough, there is one entity that they actually fear outside of those with holy powers: SCP-096. That's because in their home realm, at least one person managed to somehow summon SCP-096 and tricked them into looking into his face. While they did manage to heavily maul SCP-096, it was not without massive injuries. Because of this, they are incredibly wary of the entity, becoming more aware against photos that even contain a pixel of his face. The SCP Foundation has since permitted usage of photos of SCP-096 as weapons to be used against them in order to capture them for further examination, albeit very carefully to not allow themselves to see the photos they had deployed.
- Due to their increased fragility after drinking the 10 Hour Burst, they are incredibly weak against incredibly strong attacks. As such, various techniques such as a backstab can seriously hurt them. The Spy himself once exploited this by using his Your Eternal Reward dagger to instantly kill one of them. Using the dagger's Kill and Replace properties to impersonate an 10 Hour Burst Man, he then proceeded to terrorize the entire Pantheon for a couple of hours before being found out.
- Because one of their powers are based off of vampirism, in addition to the aforementioned weaknesses to holy-based powers, they are also a major target by Vampire Hunters like Buffy Summers. The bad news for them is that conventional anti-vampire weapons don't exactly work against them as intended. But the good news is that some of them can still pack a punch against them. They're a major reason why various vampire hunters have taken up these arms to hunt down these creatures.
- Due to some of the Rampage Wrecking Crew having been mutated by soda drinks, one dreads the possibility of a crew member drinking a 10 Hour Burst and mutating into something far worse. Thankfully, it's yet to happen, but the likely estimate of a 10 Hour Burst Monster's level of destruction would be likely massive. In addition, there have also have been sightings of the 10 Hour Burst Men alongside the Rampage Wrecking Crew. Whether they count as allies or not is up to interpretation.
- Henry Stickmin remembered once using an "NrG drink" when trying to escape from prison. The drink speed him up so fast that he was able to escape prison using it. However, after the effects wore off, he instantly suffered an heart attack afterwards. When he heard of the 10 Hour Burst's effects, he understandably was very quick to distance himself from that, since they gave way too many bad memories of the heart attack.

Eh, good enough.
I don't see Henry mentioned in any of the interaction paragraphs by name. Also, the very last bullet point beginning with "Due to their increased fragility" looks unfinished; is that where Henry's interaction will go?
EDIT: Ah, there it is.

- John Oldman is a university professor who is Older Than They Look, and had a meeting in 2007 with his friends on his intention to leave them. He started with a seeming hypothetical, a prompt of the life of a man who as inexplicably been alive for 14,000 years, born in Ice Age Europe during the Upper Paleolithic. However it soon became apparent that he was suggesting he was some sort of immortal who wanted to tell his aquaitances why he was leaving. He's lived in Sumer and Bablyon, been a Phoenician sailor, trained under the Buddha and befriended Vincent Van Gogh. Some of the people he knew became famous and a few of his actions had an impact, but for the most part he lived as normal a life as he could. To make it all the more interesting, every character is a teacher at a certain subject that sooner or later is relevant or brought up (there's an archaeologist, a psychologist, a biologist, historian and a Christian theologian/literalist), and everyone deals with each new part of the story from John in different ways. Evidence for his prolonged life was revealed when the elderly psychiatric professor Gruber put two and two together and realized John was his father, but sadly he suffered a heart attack. John would be there for the funeral. A decade later he'd live as a professor at Chico University under the alias John Young. Ironically for his new choice of name he finally started to age due to environmental changes in the past decade. Meanwhile, four of his students come to suspect his true identity after reading a book published by Art Jenkins about what John told him, which ruined his career and left him determined to find John. This almost got ugly by a fundamentalist student stabbing him, but he made a recovery and now has to contemplate mortality finally reaching him.
- His original name was indeed John, long before anyone else had it. With aging now in effect, he figures John Young is as good an alias as any, though he freely uses John Oldman and other puns on his unusually long life. John's ascension to the Trope Pantheon was a humble one; he was researching newer stories on immortality wanting to understand his current status, only to find an advertisement for it and a trope open he felt he fit; Inconspicuous Immortal. John Young possesses none of the pride and overt presence you'd find in an Emperor of Mankind or Vandal Savage, instead being more akin to old Hob Gadling who tends to flow under the radar and live his life like most people...with the obvious caveat that said life goes on way longer than it humanly should. Hob invited John for a drink, glad to see a caveman that wasn't a homicidal maniac like Vandal. It is worth noting that while John obviously doesn't like Vandal because of his evil he is it's more a Nothing Personal way. Vandal Savage is more bemused than anything that he's inconspicuous, with whatever impact he has on history or historical figures being unintentional.
- He began life as a simple hunter-gatherer and prefers to remain under the radar, taking relatively unspectacular jobs, avoiding fame, and vanishing into the undergrowth whenever his inability to age becomes impossible to ignore. His contentment with his humble lot in life is something he has in common with Aziraphale, who largely enjoys the quiet life of an antique bookstore owner. He had learned of John Young from a book about his story and ended up inviting him to a book club. This book club mutated into a meet up for other humble immortals like Tom Bombadil and Henry Morgan; the latter isn't fond of what he has but lives a quiet life mostly as a medical doctor. John may get bored on occasion or regret losing people, but he seems content with life and has no interest in death. He may have met another immortal in the 17th century, though he never really got a different perspective on immortality. He'll fully admit it must suck for some, especially SCP-1440; having been a sore winner in his Chess with Death, the Brothers Death have cursed him to bring calamity to civilized areas if he spends too long there, forcing him to wander. The Old Man From Nowhere envies his ability to fit in, though he is still happy for him. John Young feels bad for 1440's curse and wishes the Brothers Death could just let go of their grudged and let him rest.
- Pretty much the complete opposite of Sigvald the Magnificent or Tenebrae. The Sith Emperor is a casual sadist who has committed genocide to be immortal and would render the entire galaxy full of corpses to guarantee it, along with being a malevolent tyrant. Slaanesh's champion is a vain hedonist who disregards any and every morality for his own self-centered excesses and wants. The two regard John Young as woefully boring while he finds them throughly reprehensible individuals, something few would argue against. He's also appalled by Voldemort's actions in pursuing immortality, who in turn is incensed "a mere muggle became a living Philosopher's Stone". Note he is referring to the effect from his universe, not the one of Fullmetal Alchemist. One immortal from there, Van Hohenheim, is a lot more melancholic of his immortality and like John he left the house because he didn't want to see his children grow old and die. John and Hohenheim can sometimes be found studying with Albus Dumbledore; he and Harry were interested in John Young and his experiences. It is worth noting that despite Voldemort's comment, anyone who's seen Nicholas Flamel would know his philosopher's stone doesn't keep him as fresh as John.
- While completely different from Vandal Savage in temperament they both have memories of the Ice Age, with their five-digit lifespans affording them remembering when mammoths and sabre-tooth tigers were alive. He's not as far back in the timeline to have met the Herd, though, but he is interested in them as an academic interest. He is also interested in incarnations of Death such as Death of the Endless or the Wolf, due to the fact he has avoided dying for hundreds of lifetimes but now that he's aging is finally due to meet their ilk soon. In the first few centuries he was seen as magical and set to lead his tribe, only to be chased away when they came to belief he was stealing their life force; part of him wonders if that was in fact the case. It is discussed and speculated that John may be the prehistoric origin of the vampire myth, which is why he is interested in the Hall of Vampires and its many residents. He finds Alucard's belief of the importance of humanity and mortality given his own status to be an interesting point of view for him to take even if he doesn't agree that being so long-lived takes away from his own essential humanity. He's not a fan of the ravenous and cruel vampires like Count Orlock, mind you, but that's to be expected from most people with a conscience.
- John Young is still a professor in his world, so he has an honorary position in the House of School. It should be noted that while he remembers "the ups and downs and traumas" like Ashildr his memory is finite, so he's not an ideal source of history. He uses archaeology to try to understand aspects of his life that he's forgotten over time or to clarify why certain events he was a witness to happened as they did. He appreciates some of the help in that field that Indiana Jones and River Song have made. Indy is interested in him since he's seen a way to sustain yourself through the centuries, though it comes with the major cost that the Grail can't leave a certain area. River was married to an immortal (well, close to one at least), the Doctor, who's been all across history and had a major impact in their adventures. Some incarnations like the 12th Doctor were even active professors, and they were interested in meeting John. Jonathan Joestar also wanted to meet him, as he has aspirations in being an archeologist. Sometimes you can find them in his courses. No points are given for John thinking his adoptive brother Dio should burn in Hell for everything he's done, well beyond simple Transhuman Treachery.
- Denzel Crocker has somehow come to the belief that John Young is a disguised FAIRY! GOD! PARENT! becauses FAIRIES! are immortal and have proven to live for over 10,000 years. This resulted in him throwing a big net over John, only for him to take off the net pretty annoyed at the situation. John isn't impressed by Mr Crocker due to him being a crazed Sadist Teacher, and he thinks a Child Hater like him being a teacher to the fourth grade was a mistake. As far as he knows his longevity isn't magical in any way, though he admits it might be. One theory he likes is that quirk in his biology that allows for perfect regeneration of the body's cells. Which makes him wonder; would this make him some sort of mutant akin to Wolverine, except not as flashy? He doesn't know but with his newfound mortality he would like to find out. John holds his job as teacher relatively seriously and he's not a fan of any Sadist Teacher; he finds Suguru Kamoshida especially gross and deplorable. Meeting up with the antiquarian Simon Petrikov was a breath of fresh air. He used to be immortal as the Ice King, though he absolutely hated it and couldn't remember who he used to be. Simon is now a Fish out of Temporal Water and could do talking with a down to earth guy who's been around for a very long time.
- As he's just one man in one place at any given time, it's difficult for him to know many historical figures. That being said, being as old as he is he's bound to meet a few. For example, he considered going on a trip with Christopher Columbus but declined. He was friends with Vincent Van Gogh and is one of a few who bought a painting for him when he was still alive. He's glad to see his artwork was appreciated after his death, however he still feels bad for his old friend's depression and the fact he eventually took his own life. It is worth noting that some modern historians theorize he might've been shot by accident and sold it as a suicide to spare the one who did it, but that's not any better. More importantly to him, he studied under the Buddha. John Young can't recall any other notable historical figures he met though he could be proven wrong if studying history helps him recall stuff. Of course now that he's in the Trope Pantheon he has a pick aplenty of historical figures to see, especially in the Hall of Historical Figures. He's pretty sure he hasn't met Rasputin as he would've been in the US while he was active, but he does wonder if he was that other immortal he might've met. Since Abraham Lincoln is an immortal present long before his official birthdate in two universes he wondered for a moment if that was also the case in his universe, but dismissed him being the other immortal as Lincoln wouldn't have been in Brussells in the 19th century.
- He was present in the Middle East in the 1st century CE, trying to spread Buddhist teachings and having grown dissastisfied with Roman brutality. He ended up crucified but was able to fake his death. He's tried to avoid any situation to test a potential Healing Factor, even if he doesn't scar. However he considers this attempt to bring Buddhism to the Middle East something that got out of hand, since it built up to something he never intended to; being the inspiration for Jesus. Yes, in his universe, he's the basis for Jesus Christ, as the meditation ritual he used to fake his death and his natural ageless got mistaken for the resurrection. He never planned for a religion to build up around him, nor wanted it to. In all, it's a situation not too different from Brian Cohen, except not as comical. Brian doesn't know what to think of this, since he was an actual contemporary of Jesus, and he even met Pontius Pilate. Another curious similarity they share is an anachronisitc name, since you don't expect a caveman to be called John or a 1st century Jewish man to be called Brian Cohen. The two had a drink over it all, and they ended up bonding about this.
- Religious fundamentalists like Bishop Mozgus and Judge Claude Frollo want John Young crucified upside down, St Peter style, for the percieved blasphemy of John Young claiming he used to be Jesus. However it's very important to remember that he is only the basis for Jesus in their universe; after all, there are multiple versions of Satan, God and other theological figures walking around, and the Trope Pantheon is one vast multiverse of a Crossover Cosmology. Given their own crimes against humanity, John finds it rich they would ever judge him. He tries not to mention it around the pantheon's Christian residents, not wanting to upset or offend anyone too much. For the most part, priests and other religious figures are able to compartmentalize this and they aren't going to push him about it. Ned Flanders does and he complains about blasphemy, however he's non-violent about it and thinks of John more as frustrating than someone he outright hates; John himself is neutral to Flanders, though. While John could never approach the Last Son of Alcatraz due to being an existential threat as far as he's concerned, he pities how he was controlled as some bastardized version of the Lord under American propaganda. Being The Antichrist, Damien is seeking to "get his hands" on John. Yes, he's aware he's a normal human that just happened to survive 14,000 years, but he wants to make him suffer to spite the Messiah he's diametrically opposed to.
Forrest Gump was involved in plenty of important American historical moments, but doesn't really realize the significance of most of them.
Crimson@ Understandable. Though, I am trying to be more active in here with me creating Pregnancy And Fertility being the first small step. Also, my current technology situation is much better then it was before. Though, the profile would still be slow since I'm mostly going to do it on the weekend.
@Hamana got it, will halt my version of the rework then
In any case I plan to re-work Zenyatta's profile so that it can also share it with Ramattra, I just couldn't find a trope that fits with him and just said screw it and decided to make Zenyatta share Religious Robot and since they come from the same work it's alright
@ Murder Drones Characters: They may also have something to say about Megaman X’s Zero. He was infected with the Maverick Virus (before the events of the X Series) and then the Zero Virus (X5, upon Sigma allegedly somehow meeting Dr. Wily), the first by allegedly Wily and the second by Sigma (He got better). And as if things couldn’t get worse for him, Doctor Weil forced him to live through the apocalypse as he wiped out over half of humanity and nearly all reploids with his cataclysmic robot-humanity war that he caused via hijacking the benevolent Mother Elf program, had Zero’s body stolen to make Omega, and is incredibly racist towards machines. Worth noting that the only reason he doesn’t mistreat Omega is because he’s vital to his Zero 3 plan. Zero actually considered Weil worse than the mass-murdering, genocidal, sentient Sigma Virus.

“Get Snuck-Up On.”![]()
I wouldn't mind them sharing a profile. Regarding reworks, you propose them exactly like proposing a new idea: you write a paragraph explaining how and why they fit the trope and wait for approvals.
so, the profile of Nuka World
has a very big problem, besides some poor paragraphs, the entire profile, its acension, and some paragraphs, heavily involve a deity called "The Sole Survivor". a deity who's.....not even in the profile anymore. what should we do about this?
(i've also noticed the sole survivor issues as well with The Institute.
that profile also spends too much of the paragraphs summarizing what it is, and the interactions are quite short and basic.)

I think it's allowed to do that, but I recommend against that so it doesn't look like you're spamming the profile.

The Sole Survivor is the protagonist of Fallout 4. They used to be in the Pantheon holding Sole Survivor but were deleted for poor profile quality. Both Nuka-World and the Institute look like they need a rework in my opinion.
@ Clovis so uh, you think Uzi would still distrust humans with well you know the Solver fiasco that ended in the destruction of earth and the jeopardy of copper 9? I am still unsure if she would distrust them because of it or if she would be okay.

right right. Well, here is the proposal then:
Zenyatta and Ramattra, Gods of Religious Robots
Zenyatta and Ramattra were two omnic monks from the Shambali monastery that was formed after the Omnic Crisis too find a way to reform relationships between humans and omnics after the war and after Aurora, the first sentient omnic sacrificed herself to share her sentience to her kind. Terkhartha Zenyatta wanders the world in order to help out the people in need of him. He originally disagreed with the view of his fellow brothers and sisters and believed that in order to repair the bonds between humans and omnics, one must do it through interpersonal connection and engagement. And so Zenyatta left the monastery in order to practise on his word. But this was not the case for Ramattra, enraged of how omnics were treated even after so many tries for peace, he thinks he starts a terrorist organization known as Null Sector to fight for the rights of omnics, believing that violence is the key for it.
I argue that both should share the trope of Religious Robot because they represent two faces of the same coin. Zenyatta is a robot monk that follows the doctrines of the Shambali (a Buddhist-like doctrine), sees omnics as beings that also have spiritual capabilities and preaches the word of the Iris, seeing peaceful methods as the way to achieve the rights for the omnics (although he is going to kick ass if he has to). Ramattra who also was a robot monk of the same doctrines Zenyatta, he also sees omnics of having true souls and deserve a peaceful existence in the universe but he also believes that omnics should take violent methods to achieve peace at any cost, even if he needs to kill hundreds of thousands of people, going as far as (admittedly very hypocritical from his part) enslaving his own people via the usage of the same omniums that made mindless robots for his army.
you think Uzi and the gang would be chill with 2B and her gang? I mean given everything they went through because of humans and suddenly this robots are serving to humans then uh

Regarding the Murder Drones profile, The Heralds section should be directly above the Allies section and below Domains. Also, the Domains list shouldn't link to tropes. Doll is listed in the Enemies section, which she shouldn't be since she's not ascended.
For interactions, 2B, 9S and A2 are androids from the far future where humanity has gone extinct, working under an army to fight against robots created by also-extinct aliens.
EDIT: Regarding the Nier Automata trio, they eventually realized in different times that the humans are dead and their purposes are effectively All for Nothing, and eventually move on (though they certainly became disillusioned since their jobs are built on a lie).

SING TO ME, LEND ME THE SONG OF BLASPHEMY

Alright then, let's get some of my DOORS proposals done now:
- The Figure, Unholy Representative of Sense-Impaired Monsters
The Figure is the second and final boss of Doors (or at least, the Hotel part of it). The main gimmick of the Figure is that it is completely blind, and will frequently walk straight past you if it doesn't hear you. If it does hear you, however, then it will run straight at the source of the noise and grab whoever is there at the time. It can hear people opening and closing drawers and lockers, and even their breathing, which is more than compensation for its lack of sight.- Seek, God of Escape Sequences
Seek is the first boss of Doors (again, the Hotel part of it, the Mines are a bit different). After heralding its appearance with its eyes appearing through the walls to watch you, it will eventually rise from a puddle behind you and proceed to run straight at you. To escape the monster, you must go through a relatively long chase sequence while avoiding fires, massive hands coming through the wall, the very building crashing down on top of you, and making sure to select the right door to go through. If it catches you, it is instant death. Ready to rock?
