Trope Pantheon Restructure thread

The Ice Climbers return to climbing.

Another MonHun rework should not of taken this long. In any case, here's the Lagis. Anything worth to add?

Lagiacrus, God of Underwater Boss Battles (The Lord of the Seas, Sea Wyvern, Lagi, Lagia; Ivory Lagiacrus: White Sea Wyvern, The Ruler of Two Realms, Ivory Lagi, I. Lagi, White Lagia, White Lagiacrus, Land Lagia; Abyssal Lagiacrus: Dark Sea Wyvern, Abyssal Lagia)

^{Ivory Lagiacrus} 

^{Abyssal Lagiacrus} 

• Intermediate God (Lagiacrus and Ivory Lagiacrus), Greater God (Abyssal Lagiacrus)
• Symbol: The Hunter's Guild's icon for Lagiacrus◊, Ivory Lagiacrus◊ and Abyssal Lagiacrus◊
• Theme Song: Tremble of the Sea and Land (Normal and Ivory), Devil of the Sea (Abyssal)
• Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
• Portfolio: Prowling the Land and Seas, Crodilian, Cobra, and Eel-like, Bioelectricity, Spitting Ball Lightning, Lightning Bruiser, Red Herring for the Moga Village Earthquakes, Creates Whirlpools to Attack (Abyssal), Sea Dragons, True Final Boss (Abyssal only)
• Domains: Sea, Lightning, Leviathans
• Size: 2357.2cm - 3310.6cm (Lagiacrus); 2516.0cm - 3310.6cm (Ivory Lagiacrus); 3969.3cm (Abyssal Lagiacrus)
• Allies: Aquaman, Bruce, Ampharos, Thor
• Rivals: Rajang, Zinogre, The Gill-Man, Liopleurodon, Moby-Dick, Monstro, Red Gyarados
• Enemies: Plesioth, Davy Jones, Red Gyarados
• Opposed by/Opposes: The Monster Hunters
• Feared by: Pikachu, Popplio
• Herald: Ceadeus
• Followers: All other Monsters that can be fought underwater, Emerald WEAPON, Maws, The Lurker Below
• In earlier times, the seas of the Pantheon suddenly grew dark and stormy the day the Lagiacrus was first sighted in the Pantheon. Many of the gods not suited to such a thing chose to stay on land until the threat could be evaluated... except Aquaman, who rose to the challenge of taming the beast. He succeeded, earning further respect from his House and putting his past as the Patron Saint of Stupid Powers behind him for good. After Aquaman tamed the first Lagiacrus, rumors of variants of the species - one ivory-hued, the other black as the bottom of the sea - started to arise. Aquaman leads the charge in investigating these rumors, and a habitat in this house is under construction so these majestic sea dragons can thrive. He was surprised however, when the Ivory Lagiacrus showed that it is mainly a land-dweller. And that is to say nothing at his shock that the Abyssal Lagiacrus is an ultra-deep ocean dweller (though he should have seen it coming with a name like that). He's currently also trying to figure out how an air-breathing creature manages to stay at those depths, energetically and actively hunting, for hours at a time.
• Competes with other aquatic creatures in the Pantheon and tends to be highest on the food chain. To the Lagiacrus, the ability to produce Thunder attacks using special organs makes it almost unmatched in its home turf that is the seas. Its technique of creating a whirlpool to ensnare and electrocute prey and/or would-be attackers, which are powerful enough to even sink ships, also helps cement its rule. Those who are especially weak to electricity, such as the Plesioths, steer clear of it like the plague.
  • Competes with the Rajang and Zinogre to see who has the most potent electrical current among all of them, alongside their respective variations such as the Thunderlord Zinogre, for example. Meanwhile Thor has respect for the beasts' ability to control electricity even if they are on dry land. Pikachu and Popplio, on the other hand, are outright terrified of Lagiacrus species. Though helping to contribute in that fear is the massive size difference between the two, and that even the smalled recorded Lagiacrus dwarfs even Wailord.
• Was mistakenly blamed for the earthquakes that started to hit Moga Village. In actuality it was its Herald, the Elder Dragon Ceadeus, that caused them. It did so because of the pain surrounding the pain of one of its horns growing over an eye.
• Much like how the Flying Wyvern known as the Rathalos is called the King of the Skies, the Lagiacrus is meanwhile called the Lord of the Seas. You will never find a Lagiacrus far from a large body of water. Besides the House of Water And Ice, the Lagi also makes its home at the House of Aquatic Life and the springs within the House of Plants. Though they spend more time underwater, the Lagi also come up to the surface to sunbathe. When visiting some of hot-springs of the Pantheon, you can sometimes find the Lagiacrus dwelling there much like it had when in the Misty Peaks. Many gods called out how out of place something like the Lagiacrus would be in such an environment it turns out its just there to relax.
• The Lagis have a very frosty relationship with any cephalopods they encounter in the Pantheon. This is because while they tend to be at the top of the food chain of their world, they are one of the many prey of the Nakarkos, a monstrous Elder Dragon that surrounds itself and uses the bones of other monsters it had devoured. It is for that reason why it attacks Davy Jones and the Kraken whenever it can, sometimes even waiting for more inopportune moments like when dealing with their own enemies they've made in the Pantheon.
• There have been some early documented appearances of one appearing in the New World. There have been no further appearances after these sightings have surfaced, however.

• Also has a spot in Bosses/Water And Ice.

Add some humor involving Abyssals mistaking its Abyssal form for one of theirs.

Also, it's clear that Manus is in need of an massive rework. Anything should I add to his profile?

  • For Alsanna and Karla, the enemies and allies are inverted.
• The creature known as the Father of the Abyss is the ultimate threat to the First Flame. The blight of the Abyss it carries, if left unchecked, will spread and destroy most life in the Pantheon and twist what is left into loathsome horrors. While it was successfully locked in combat against the flames of the Old Chaos, the real problem (the death of his home world) began when the darkness successfully extinguished the fires of Izalith. Slowly but surely, the darkness reaches for the dying flames...
• Before all that, there were heavy implications, according from accounts from Darkstalker Kaathe, Marvelous Chester, and The Chosen Undead that it used to be known as one of the "so easily forgotten" Bearer of the Lord Soul, the Furtive Pygmy. However, his humanity went out of control, and then it was awakened by the citizens of Oolacile, resulting in the Abyss spreading across the land, corrupting its citizens in the process.
• Manus is similar to the Beast in power and mindlessness. It barely has enough conscience to attempt to leave its temple, attack anything nearby and seek Humanity. Other than that, it only seeks its precious shattered amulet. The Chosen Undead holds half of it, and searches are underway to find the other half.
• Artorias and Ornstein are not allowed to attempt to hunt the horror unsupervised. While their hatred of the creature is absolute and their power is highly welcomed in any fight against it, they bear its taint and both have fallen to it in the past. Artorias in particular still holds much of the monster's power sealed within himself, and should he fall, Manus could reclaim the Abyss.
• Upon defeat by the Chosen Undead, he was shattered into pieces, which would later resurface to bedevil the Bearer of the Curse.
• Due to the machinations of Melkor, Manus has largely reformed into a single entity, though many of its component fragments have been granted a sort of independent existence, still as a whole devoted to sundering the First Flame and collapsing everything that is and could be into the darkness of the Abyss.
  • Nashandra has adopted the role of The Dragon and personal courier, her ambitions and goals are very close to her parent's.
  • Elana has promised revenge against both the Chosen Undead and the Bearer of the Curse, and had Sinh restored to continue her depraved work.
  • The Darklurker is now the Guardian of Manus' temple; all invaders must fight this creature before fighting Manus himself.
  • Alsanna shrouds the path to the temple in thick fog and seals the paths in mazes of snow, sleet and ice while making sure the temple's creatures are equally contained inside, honoring her lost Ivory King while at the same time choking the Old Chaos. Manus and her "siblings" are well aware of this, but they hate the Old Chaos too much to care. More so, Alsanna actually sneaks away to meet others, seeking help against her "Father", and so far has bonded with Elsa, Anna, and Weiss Schnee. Those who hear the story about her and her king are often brought to tears.
  • Nadalia still awaits her King in Manus's temple, healing and strengthening its roaming monsters through her idols, in addition to her eternal guardian, Raime the Fume Knight. She has claimed an attraction to Gwyn, still seeking the Soul of the Old Iron King. Gwyn has yet to respond beyond ignoring everyone that brings it up.
• King Allant seeks to advance or even use Manus' plans, as the deaths of the First Flame and Gwyn will usher in an Age of Dark which shall end the illusion of Hope.
• The few Magical Girls that dare to try and fight Manus are often overwhelmed by the Dark and are summarily corrupted into Witches. The Sisterhood has thus issued flee-on-sight orders on this thing and forbidden all attempts to hunt it down. The group has already lost too many to dream of fighting this horror; even at its peak victory would have been... expensive.
• Those who confront the Father of The Abyss will find him like this.
• Another Fragment has appeared, though unlike her sisters she is content to merely content to teaching those willing to learn sorceries and pyromancies rooted in the Abyss, so that they can use it for good and defeat the evils that her "Father" helped to create.

Not all Magical Girls are Puella Magi such as Sayaka, Mami, and Kyoko, so not all of them will turn to Witches. Change that, and I'll remove this .

@Crownless: How is Red Gyarados Lagiacrus's rival and enemy at the same time? Fix that up, add Oshawott and Eelektross somewhere there and you'll get a .

EDIT: Profile updated.

  • Char Aznable, Raoh, Toy!Emperor Zurg, Hakumen, Solidus Snake, Alarak, Specter Knight, Locus, Lord Dominator
• In the early days of the Pantheon, Golbez was called to the Pantheon by Chaos to serve the GUAE, and was given his current title for his similarities to Darth Vader, including familial relations with the hero. Considering his heart's weakness and ability to be summoned a sign of his unworthiness of redemption, Golbez has pledged himself to the forces of evil again, but hopes their efforts will fail. In his heart, he wishes to be a force for good, but considers himself unworthy of standing alongside the more noble and selfless heroes.
• Is rumored to be working with Kain Highwind to undermine Melkor's position. Kain has spoken in hushed tones of Golbez considering their past together, if he's being secretive or just prefers not to talk about it is unknown for now.
• Pointedly bans his brother Cecil from visiting him more than once a week, as when he first arrived Cecil heard about his servitude to evil and tried to convince his brother to cast off his past and return to the light. Golbez got annoyed with Cecil after the seventh visit in two days and zapped him with a Cosmic Ray as a hint to let him deal with these matters on his own.
• Though not the best of friends, he and Darth Vader have come to an understanding with each other. Vader respects Golbez's admirable efforts to emulate him, and they share a mutual sympathy for the other's struggles with their pasts and their families. However, Vader has warned that if Golbez has not chosen a definitive side when Melkor's forces march, he will choose for him. Golbez has not been reached to discover his response.
• He may be resigned to following the ways of evil (well, not anymore), but Golbez often offers sound advice to those who'll listen.
• However, as a result of certain events, Golbez went missing for a long while. Incidentally, this was during the time Cecil and company minus Edward were transferring Houses. Eventually, once the final stages of the move were done, he finally returned on the Lunar Whale with two surprises.
  1. He found and brought back FuSoYa, thus reuniting them to join as heralds for Cecil, Kain, Rydia, Rosa, and Pantheon newcomer Edge. The fruits of his "expedition" to the Red Moon and the fates of the Lunarians and Zeromus however remain unknown, and Golbez refuses to elaborate on the details. FuSoYa has nothing to say, either.
  2. With the establishment of the Ministry of Atonement, after seeing who its members are, and given the events of The After Years, Golbez finally decided to cut ties with Lord Chaos and the GUAE, and join his brother's side for good, much to his joy.
• Sometime after his solid Heel–Face Turn, he received a visit from one of the Warriors of Cosmos; Zidane Tribal. When he asked the monkey-tailed hero what his business was, he got a strange request. To help in redeeming Kuja as well, or at least keep the other Warriors of Chaos from preventing him from doing so. He had managed to reach out to his "brother" back in Gaia before he died, and he doesn't understand why Kuja's forgotten. In his time with the GUAE, Golbez managed to know why thanks to hearing Kefka gloat about it, and decided he would see what he can do. As for the truth, Golbez decided it would be best if Zidane heard Kuja's motives from the man(?) himself.

Edward Chris von Muir, God of Gimmicky Performer Classes (Prince Edward of Damcyan, Gilb(e/a)rt Chris von Muir)

^{Edward in The After Years} 

• Returning To: Fantastical Jobs
• s:

• Lesser God (originally Demigod until the events of The After Years)
• Symbol: The Twin Harp with some Whisperweed wrapped around it
• Theme Song: The Melody of Lute
• Alignment: Neutral Good
• Portfolio: The Bards, Lovable Cowards, Joke Characters that eventually become powerful, Magic Music, traveling musician, Harp Players, Salve Ability, Morning the Loss of Anna, Getting Nerves of Steel, The Good King, Remaining A Bishōnen Even At 41
• Domains: Charm, Dream, Nobility, Royalty, Music
• Herald: Harley (his secretary)
• Followers: Guard A, Guard B, Guard C, Vijeeter Ecor, The Minstrel, Haolahn, Lute, Torneko, Sven, Ricardo, Lucia, Yurist, Elphin, Karyl/Johnny Sheeden, The Jester, Julie, Prince Sid
• Allies: 'Cecil Harvey, Kain Highwind, Rydia, Rosa Farrell, Edge Geraldine, Cosmos, Sora, Orihime Inoue, Lucia Nanami and the Mermaid Princesses, all other good-aligned Final Fantasy'' deities
• Enemies: All evil Final Fantasy deities, those who use songs for evil.
• Neutral with: Golbez
• Lost his spirit in the mortal realm after losing his only girlfriend and being beaten up by an old man. Since being selected for demi-godhood (someone wanted to bring up the spoony bard to represent…Spoony Bard), Orihime keeps asking him to show her his "magic spoon". Edward asserts that she has no idea what she's talking about, and consults with Lucia to help him write his next ballad.
  • Since the ascension of the rest of the Mermaid Princesses, he congratulated her for accomplishing this and with his own growth has offered to join in their songs, pointers in how to run a kingdom, or lend a note in the battle against other evil song-users such as Courtney Gears, I-No, Ember McLain, and The Dazzlings. That said, he doesn't really get too involved in the musical battles that take place between them.
• Has now elevated to a Lesser God when it was shown that Edward has lost much of his spooniness and replaced it with balls of steel. How much? It is said that he stood up to resident Memetic Badass Kain Highwind (or rather an Evil Counterpart of Kain), eavesdropped on a brainwashed Cecil with nothing more than his gut instinct and a bouquet of Whisperweed, and braved the Antlion Cave all by himself. He also gained powerful songs and his Salve ability increased tenfold.
  • For the record, "spoony" is a real word, which means "foolish and/or lovesick", which was apt for Edward that time.
• With his Salve ability, he can heal all of his allies at once with healing items. While this can make him as effective a healer as any preacticioner of White Magic, it does pose a bit of a money issue as he needs to have a lot of healing potions stocked.
• Without as much angst over his lost love as before, Edward has proven to be a really capable leader, and is there to lend an ear for those who wish for advice in leadership or music.
• One can often take notice of a vase with Whisperweed in his temple, which can serve as an impromptu means of communication between bouquets (the other set being at Cecil and company's temple), though its effects if there's more than one in use are not known. What is known though is that its range exceeds a planet's atmosphere, though probably not by much.

Edward would not take the fact that Courtney Gears is using her Diva status to endorse robot supremacy that well, and that I-No is an Musical Assassin with malicious intent.

Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays to you all folks! In the spirit of the season, allow me to present my WIP draft of the Gang of Seven profile. Admittedly, some of the characters have fewer profile details than others and the relationships haven't all been fleshed out but any additional notes are welcomed.

Enjoy!

Never mind, it's going to the main thread.

Edited by Bazzardreturns on Dec 24th 2018 at 8:27:56 AM

This profile adds new members and merges a couple others. It should be worked in the other thread.

Last time I heard Ferot suggested putting it in here. So confusing.

Probably because he isn't aware of a few changes regarding reworks

Rework on 765 Pro's High Priests and Allies. This is done as some of the Cinderella Girls, which is designated as High Priestesses, have ascended. This puts the ascended ones into a paradox, so this edit mainly puts ascended Cinderella Girls who are allied to 765 Pro or a member of the group into allies section.

Edit 1: Following Muundeis's suggestion, all idols primally featured in video games or/and animed, sans people from Xenoglossia the robot anime and idols that only belongs to 961 Pro, are now high priests.

Edit 1.5: To follow nightelf37's suggestion, the Mermaid Princesses have replaced Lucia Nanami, as the latter individual belongs to the former group. Will add the lore later.

765 Pro, Goddesses of Idol Singers (The Idolmaster, Haruka: Harurun, Ribbon girl, Stupid ribbon, Yukiho: Yuki-pyon, Yayoi: Yayo-cchi, Ritsuko: Ricchan, Iori: Forehead, Iorin, Makoto: Mako-chin, Miki: Miki-Miki, Hibiki: Hibikin, Takane: Gluttonous Silver Princess, Kotori: Piyo-chan, The Producer: 765 Pro-san)

• Symbol: The 765 Pro building

• Domains: Music, Theater, Friendship.
• Followers: Hannah Montana, Sonia Strumm, the other Vocaloids (exc. the ascended Hatsune Miku), Lynn Minmei, Megumi Oumi, Athena Asamiya
• Allies:
  • All of them: The Puchi Idols, Koume Shirasaka, Ranko Kanzaki, Mika Jougasaki, Clarice, Miria Akagi, Hayate Immelmann, Miku Hatsune, the Mermaid Princesses, Utau Hoshina, Houkago Tea Time, Muse, The Nagarekawa Girls, Sayaka Maizono, Itsuki Inubozaki (and tons more, each idols possess their own personal friends)
  • Chihaya: Umi Sonoda
  • Azusa: Nozomi Tojo
  • Iori: Rise Kujikawa
  • Makoto: Miyabi, Itsuki Myoudouin, Rin Hoshizora
  • Yayoi: Airi Totoki, Yozakura
  • Ami and Mami: Rom and Ram, Takao, Kyou and Ryou Fujibayashi
  • Takane: Estelle
• Rivals: The Console Patron Units (no, we don't get it either)
• Odd Friendship: Minael(Ami)
• This group is usually called for group performances, and they stick together like glue. It's just impossible to break them apart.
  • And even though they aren't the strongest deities, it's generally a bad idea to ever talk bad about the members as the others will defend them to the bitter end. This is especially true for their Producer. Don't ever bad mouth their Producer.
• While stationed at the House of Music, they could easily seep into the House of Theater, as they're also used in starring in movies.
• Their songs comes in many flavors, be they "Awesome", or "Tearjerking" or "Heartwarming".
• They also has a small sub-group called "Ryuuguu Komachi", consisting of Iori, Azusa and Ami. While they're more likely to appear in three, they also occasionally join in the rest for a combined song.
• Ever since Haruka, Chihaya, Makoto, Iori, Ami and Mami and Yukiho made it know that they had experience with piloting mecha in a past life, the aformentioned goddesses can sometimes be seen chatting away with other mecha pilots.
  • Yukiho is rather jealous of her past self for reasons that she refuses to disclose.
• The rise of Monokuma eeried them on how it was manipulating people into killing each other, especially when these Idols are of school age. But from that, Haruka managed to get in contact with one of the victims of Monokuma's manipulations, Super High School Level Idol Singer Sayaka Maizono, crying in the corner that her actions would've made her share a room with Teppei Hojo. Haruka just listened to her 'tale' and 'reasoning' behind it and assures her that Maizono didn't do anything wrong and seeing that she used to lead a beloved Idol Singer group, Haruka invited her to be a 'follower' and introduces her to the 765 Pro, who welcomed her warmly as a follower.
  • The group performed a concert with Sayaka as the guest star to celebrate her ascension.
• Lately the group has some... 'nasty' rumors, especially in regards of Azusa. The thing is, with her voice and overall and absolutely 'incorruptible' sweet attitude, people has been comparing her with Litchi Faye-Ling and surrounding the Morality Civil War, a lot thought that Azusa should be the one she took after, completely pure and wholly good instead of... doing what she does in extremes. Azusa was... flabbergasted to say the least, not because of the action, but because she believed that Litchi deserves to choose her own path. She's been trying to contact her and... uh, cheer her up? That unfortunately kept failing because she never locates Litchi's house properly.
  • Beforehand, the rumors was that the rumor was spread by the Console Patron Units, who thought she might be their nemesis Arfoire in disguise and was behind MOB48. Of course, before that rumor could fly high, every single idols stood up for Azusa and eventually made the CPU admit that they definitely got the wrong stuff.
  • Though not as severe, a lot of people also gave weird looks on Chihaya, due to some similarities with Tsubaki Yayoi and there were silent rumors that never got around in public that the latter was also in danger of doing extreme acts and should try to be more like Chihaya... She hasn't heard of it fully, but no doubt Chihaya will be angered on this as well. (And no, that's not because Tsubaki has bigger/medium boobs)
• Makoto couldn't help but smile embarrassingly when she found out she did have plenty of male fans that love her look. Though she sometimes wish she could get away with wearing cute things (she can like both, yes), because her last time cutefy-ing herself as Mako-rin just backfired spectacularly. She's been told by her friend Itsuki Myoudouin that she should just 'be herself' and maybe just use a lesser version like She Cleans Up Nicely...
• The entire group couldn't help but cry Tears of Joy once their Puchis finally ascended. However, with their ascension, there has been some unforeseen side effects towards the 765 Pro girls. Also, The Producer sometimes has a giant P for a head.
  • Especially when Chihaya insists that every Puchi should be called "Gonzales".
• Takane has been recently followed by the MIB after rumors that she might actually be an alien. So far, there has been no evidence to support it.
  • Also on a shocking note, the Mishima family (Heihachi, Kazuya and Jin) have been taking notes on her, noticing that Takane kind of sounds like their family matriarch Kazumi. Though what Takane wonders is why didn't said matriarch approach her for costumes when there's such link and she instead asked Chihaya of all people. However, even with her oddness, Takane already knows what kind of bullshits that Heihachi and Kazuya pulled (and even Jin, regardless of her understanding of the situation) and kept a cautious eye on them.
• If you're a male or canine deity it's not a good idea to approach Yukiho as she's prone to digging a hole, regardless of whatever she's standing on, at the slightest shock.
  • Yukiho is also prone to falling asleep the second you turn away from her, regardless of whether or not she's standing up. Some deities have theorized that Yukiho may suffer from narcolepsy.

You should also include the Side M idols as additional High Priests. Once you got that in, my shall be yours.

@765 Pro: Add the Mermaid Princesses (which Lucia Nanami is part of) as their allies and how they "accidentally" claimed her title while she was still holding it) and you'll get my .

@ Manus & Fragments: Manus being shattered into fragments should be merged with the bullet below it and that bit about Karla should also be moved to the bullets dealing with the individual fragments. And speaking of, some of the bits surrounding said fragments should be expanded upon since they're a pretty pivotal part of the profile if they share the position with Manus.

@ nightelf: Obligatory rundown of who they are as the beginning flavor text.

@Edward, well now that The Bard/Kiwi has ascended, I'm guessing he would love to have another bard to know...

Hey guys, I might consider reworking Porky Minch because his is so damn short and has no reference to Earthbound.

I copied his profile onto my sandbox just for reference.

Do it. No one's stopping you from adding more details.

Here's just the draft for Porky.

Porky Minch, God of Dire Side-Effects of Time Travel (Pokey Minch, King P)

^{Porky before} 

• Lesser God
• Symbol: The Pigmask Army insignia (a pig nose)
• Theme Song: Porky, Porky Means Business, His Highness, Master Porky's Theme
• Alignment: Chaotic Evil
• Portfolio: Old Friend of Ness, Jerkass, Portly Boy with no Heart, Immortal through Time Travel with the mind of a child, Subordinate of Giygas or His Master, A normal boy to an omnicidal bringer of destruction, Rest on a Spider Tank, Wants Everyone who annoys him gone, Symbol of Humanity's Flaws
• Domains: Immaturity, Immortality, Time-Travel
• Allies: Giygas
• Enemies: Ness, Lucas, Mr. Saturn, frankly, everyone
• Porky Minch was just a boy growing up in Onett with his family and his neighbor, Ness and his family. One day, a meteor crashed into a hilltop and his life completely changed once he made contact with the Universal Cosmic Destroyer, Giygas. He became Giygas's biggest minion until his defeat at the hands of Ness and his friends, where he escaped in time until he began terrorizing Tazmily Island and ruined the life of one boy, Lucas.
• Because of his abuse of time travelling, he ended up becoming physically frail, blue-skinned, and immortal. As the result, he is seen most of the time resting on his spider mech for transportation. Even if he wasn't, he'd still be riding in it because he's fat.

I don't think how the title is worded fits Time Abyss. Laconic even describes it as "An object or lifeform of an inconceivable age".

Inconceivable Long Life?

Yeah, that will work.

Also, I have added that bit about Eelektross and Oshawott in my sandbox but I’m at a bit of a loss on how to write thing with the Abyssals for the Abyssal Lagi. I’m not that famialr with them, I’m afraid.

I've been reworking the Witch-king of Angmar primarily due to his profile being bare-boned. However, another reason why I wanted to rework his profile is because his current trope, Epic Flail, is very narrow since he is only depicted using a flail in the Peter Jackson adaptation. My replacement trope of choice is No Man of Woman Born, since the Witch-king's manner of death both happens in the source material and parallels the defeat of the Trope Namer Macbeth^note who already has a spot in the Pantheon (and was apparently written by Tolkien as a Take That! towards said Trope Namer). As well as that, the prophecy that "no man" will kill him is fulfilled in two ways, since the Witch-king is defeated by a woman (who is human but not male) and by a hobbit (who is male but not human). I'd just like permission to adopt the trope from the Weird Sisters, who already have another trope and therefore don't need to be evicted from the Pantheon in order to make way for the Witch-king.

Oh, how long has it been since I was here?

Remember when I planned to rework Lain? I saw a new profile, edited it in, and here is the last draft I left.

Lain Iwakura, Ruler of the Internet (Lady of the Wired)

• Rank: Overdeity
• Symbol: The Navi OS logon screen
• Theme Song: Duvet
• Alignment: True Neutral
• Portfolio: Creepy Child, Cyberpunk, Not knowing what she is/was, The Internet, Mind Screw, Reality Warper,Obtuse Metaphors, Present Day, Split Personalities, Deletion of Existence
• Domains: Computers, Dreams, Knowledge, Mysticism, Introverts
• Followers: Yui Kasuga (Corrector Yui; also follows Sakura of the Magic Wand seat), Hana Gitelman (Heroes), The Virtual Adepts (Mage: The Ascension) and a small sect of the Free Council (Mage: The Awakening )
• Allies: Lan Hikari and MegaMan.exe, IF, The Lyoko Warriors, Naoki Kashima, Shinji Ikari, Wikipe-tan and Trope-tan (As their mother), Quackity
• Enemies: Arfoire, Millenniumon and Diaboromon, The Seer, Agent Smith, Dr. Weil, SKYNET, YHVH, Zamasu, The Anti-Monitor, Big Brother
• Scares: XANA, several Robotic deities
• Mostly Indifferent to: The GUAM
• Professional Relationship with: The House of Faith
• Keeping an eye on: Homura Akemi, Madoka Kaname
• In the Present Day, a series of experiments with technological concepts resulted in the crafting of The Wired, an addictive and strange counterpart to the modern-day Cyberspace. This all went unnoticed to one Lain Iwakura, a quiet and demure girl who seemed to live an ordinary, if rather isolated life. But one day, when a classmate of hers known as Chisa Yomoda committed suicide, Lain was the only one to reply to a strange text message about her abandoning of her body. What followed was a rather strange experience, very difficult to put into few words, but it all ended with Lain becoming the 'Goddess of the Wired', and resetting her world to a more...normal place.
• Given her nebulous existence, it's hard to say when Lain ascended exactly...but the occasional appearance of a 14-year old girl in everyone's computers quickly drew attention to her. Given how the Pantheon is situated in the internet, its likely that Lain has been here from the start.
• Despite her position, Lain is still very much the same introvert as she was before. Not out of shyness, she's more self-confident than you might think, but because she allows her world to run on its own (And isn't much of a people person anyways). She's kept this policy since arriving into the Pantheon, and stays out of the various wars and conflicts. One hopes that the day never, EVER comes when she decides to become active and potentially reset the Pantheon entirely.
• A bit miffed over how much more ubiquitous and widespread the internet has become since 1998. She's not overly annoyed or disgusted...but she does feel that computers have lost their sense of mystery and wants an interface that's more unusual instead of the polished modern-day touchscreens.
• Has had the occasional encounter with Lan Hikari and MegaMan.exe, and has given them thanks over how they've helped saved the network from total destruction, and sees some similarities in their fusion with each other and her own Split-Personality Merge. They all have an amiable relationship.
  • Like everyone else, she's disgusted by Dr. Weil, finding him to be FAR worse than Masami Eri ever was. Eri was ultimately just a disgruntled computer programmer whose ambitions were meant to bring in The Singularity, while Weil just wants to destroy and rule like a despot.
• Gained allies with the Lyoko Warriors after it was learned that their world was heavily inspired by her's, especially when their original pilot was slated for development. She feels a bit of kinship with Aelita as a result, given how the pinkette also once struggled with her own humanity, to the point where she tried to kill herself. Aelita in turn, feels the same kinship, and has found some amusement talking with Lain over her computer much as Jeremie used to converse with her.
  • XANA, for his part, is scared out of his bytes with Lain, and has sworn to never do anything to cross her. It's why he's been trying to convince the GUAM to not piss her off, Lain's version of the RTTP resets both the real and virtual worlds, and XANA has zero desire to get deleted or rebooted.
• Speaking of the GUAM, Lain has no intention to support or oppose them. Their desire for machine supremacy is, in her eyes, a rather short-sighted desire no better than Masami Eri's megalomania. She does understand the points of their more sympathetic members however, and encourages them to stop plans that conflict with their own morality.
  • That being said, the presence of a universe where Lain planned to create robotic duplicates of her friends and family has put the robotic deities on edge...mainly because that version of Lain gave up on the physical world and destroyed the only robot she'd actually gotten around to building.
• Utterly disgusted by sentient programs who desire to destroy everything, even the network that gives them life in the first place. Millenniumon and Diaboromon, Agent Smith, and The Seer are at the top of her list of programs that she's tempted to actually delete or help defeat because of their intentions. By extension, she is against the GUAD and has sent discrete communications out to those deities who oppose them the most.
• Given her experiences with madness, Lain has expressed sympathy to those deities who have had long and drawn-out experiences with the sensation. Therapists and psychologists are encouraged not to go near her however, as in another universe (Or prequel, as some have suggested, it isn't really clear), Lain managed to drive her psychiatrist, Yonera Touko to insanity and then killed her. Granted, that was a different Lain, but the point still stands.
• Has had quite a few discussions with Naoki Kashima on the nature of human society. Being that he's one of the few people who doesn't bug her for connections to the best the 'Tubes have to offer (at least...not as much as most), she tends to hang out with him a goodly amount of the time.
  • Also likes to chat with Motoko Kusanagi and the Laughing Man, on the rare occasions they decide to log on at the same time. If Naoki's there too...well, the conversation will require a high-speed online encyclopedia and external memory devices to keep track.
• Arfoire considers Lain to be an annoying adversary in the Pantheon, desiring the power Lain possesses and the fact that Lain has helped derail some of Arfoire's schemes. Lain sees Arfoire to be no different from her own voyeuristic side from way back when, and does not intend to let Arfoire obtain more power due to her Omnicidal Maniac tendencies.
• Despite claims that her series copied a certain other show involving machines and insanity, Lain's conception had never once drawn influence from that world. That being said, she's quite sympathetic to the Eva Pilots, particularly Shinji, whose mental issues are rather close to hers...though Lain has long since managed to get over them for the most part (Unless something unleashes her video game persona from who-knows-where), while Shinji still has at least one more movie of suffering left to go.
• Her method of resetting the world was noted to be VERY similar to the ones done by Madoka and Homura. Lain has long known about said similarities, and knows fully well of what happened during the... influenced event. All of it. She's keeping an eye on them both to see how things ultimately play out in the end.
• Given how she's had to deal with the responsibilities of essentially being god in her world, she's had more than one discussion with other such beings in the Pantheon. For the most part, it's a relatively professional relationship.
  • Of course, Lain has nothing nice to say about YHVH or Zamasu. The former abuses his power like it's going out of style, and Lain was quite pleased to learn of him being locked up after the Pantheon had had enough of his madness. As for the latter, he completely missed the point of what it was like to take on a mortal form, not to mention his hatred of mortals being astoundingly horrific.
• She might not look the part, but as the Goddess of the Internet, Lain is technically the mother to Wikipe-tan and Trope-tan, along with their non-ascended counterparts (i.e. the other 'tan's that represent the websites of the internet). She mainly lets them do as they please, as they manage relatively well enough on their own. As for their personal enemies...
  • Lain really doesn't see Big Brother as much of a threat. Oh sure, the concept is horrific, but reality came a knocking and revealed that the party isn't exactly effective. That being said, she still finds him abhorrent.
  • Arfoire has already been discussed, but SKYNET did make it onto her enemies list as well, being disgusted by how Lain learned about humanity's own emotions before returning to the Wired. Lain, in turn, is disgusted by SKYNET's desire for total destruction, no matter the cost.
  • As for the Anti-Monitor, Lain's more esoteric storytelling had him befuddled for a brief while...but it doesn't change his plans to destroy her as well. Much like the GUAD's A.I.s, Lain is honestly tempted to personally deal with the Anti-Monitor if he should ever get out of hand.
• Much to Lain's consternation, the loss of more unusual computer designs in the modern internet age is small potatoes compared to a larger threat: mass censorship. As such, she's preparing to make allies with Quackity in case their threat arrives to the Pantheon.
• Everything is Connected

Any suggested edits that I might want to put in?

Some of the allies and enemies have been moved to different sub-houses from the ones that the profile potholes to, so just update them. Apart from that, .

Bring Lain back.

Can Lagiacrus polish up its domain? Can Golbez finally escape from the clutches of Lord Chaos? Will Porky Minch rise again?

Find out next time on Trope Pantheon Restructure!
