• The Borg Collective is one of the infamous examples of an invasive intelligent species. Staring out as... something, the Borg's primary goal is to reach perfection through assimilating other races and advancing through the technology they gain. For eons, the Borg built legions upon legions of armies—assimilated countless worlds, and occupy major galactic sectors. Anybody who has knowledge and capabilities they can gain from, the Borg will take them for assimilation, a Fate Worse than Death as whatever free will a person has vanished into the collective unconsciousness as they are altered to be what is typically a Borg drone. Starfleet and other powerful alien races have done their best to deflect Borg incursions multiple times, knowing that if they falter once it might be the end for the people under them. What makes the Borg so dangerous are their superior technology and their unified forces that can sacrifice any unit for victory. However, their incapability of foresight and robotic mindsets cost them dearly as several incidents that had the infamous Voyager Federation starship involved shook their foundations. Their war with the Alternate Dimension-dwelling Species 8472 with their Organic Technology wiped out enough forces to make them consider alliances. Furthermore, the Borg Collective had several of their drones realize individuality at certain points and began subverting the links that bound Borg members together, causing an internal civil war that has yet to resolve. Finally, the greatest blow to their power was the destruction of their Transwarp hub which is used to teleport Borg vessels across the galaxy within minutes by the U.S.S. Voyager. People still wonder how a single Federation research vessel had done so much damage to a seemingly invincible race when the entire Federation armada could not. Though it is not to say the Borg are extremely weakened, as they are a significant threat but most advantages they held are gone which resulted in the Borg setting their sights on the Pantheon, with the intent to bring themselves to even greater power than they were beforehand.
• Their presence in the Pantheon was alerted when the transmission was received by Defense where the notorious Borg statement on their intentions of assimilation and the demand of surrender was heard. All Federation officers who were prepared for this eventual day, gathered nearly all forces to defend the Pantheon. Jean-Luc Picard was particularly alarmed as he was converted to a Borg beforehand, something that traumatized him greatly. As Picard was elderly, even if he had the most interactions with the Borg prior Picard was not as fit to carry out of a deflection against their attack. Honor Harrington picked up his mantle instead and led the forces against the Borg and to everyone's surprise, the Borg fleet they met went down rather easier than they thought. It was still a tense battle but not as harrowing as when the Borg first invaded Federation space. In fact, for an invasion of the Pantheon, the amount of Borg was quite small for such an undertaking. This is likely attributable to the fact Borg could not gather enough forces even if they want to. Some Borg has transported down onto the Pantheon anyhow, resulting in a zone being made that isolated the drones from the rest of the Pantheon so new technology will not be able to return to the Collective. Humorously, this special prison for them is shaped like a cube. These drones represent the Collective in the Pantheon and do not need to go outside their domain at all thanks to the little technology they have replenishing themselves. All they do is a report on Pantheon happenings to the Borg Queen who is somewhere else entirely. Many humanist protesters stage protests outside the Borg domain as their treatment is akin to a boxed-up zoo animal, but those who are aware of the Borg know that leaving them to wonder would be devastating. There are very few exceptions to Borg being able to regain individuality but that requires cutting them off from the Borg Collective leading to potentially disastrous results.
• The Borg are met with so much hatred that even Q who can erase people from existence said never to provoke the Borg under any circumstances. Benjamin Sisko and Jake Sisko particularly dislike the Borg's presence as Jake's mother was a casualty in the Battle of Wolf 359. Even the Enterprise-A/B crew (or at least their Kelvin counterparts) had to tangle with the Borg on numerous occasions, albeit in an indirect matter so that the first true Borg encounter did not happen much earlier. When Q originally sent Picard's crew to Borg space, it was more or less a warning to them that the galaxy beyond Federation space is NOT forgiving as they thought. That is not even mentioning how the Borg had a direct influence on the First Contact scenario between humans and Vulcans through Time Travel, defining that the Borg is the greatest threat to the democracy and freedoms the Federation stands for. Although they are seen as such by Federation members, the Borg ironically have higher priority targets due to Federation knowledge and tech looking a bit dim when compared to other civilizations in the Pantheon.
• The Borg has sought to capture the TARDIS after merging with the Cybermen to control time and space. The Borg would have tried assimilating the Cybermen but a conflict between each other would not bode well for either side and the fusion of members together was decided instead. That being said though, the Cybermen would pull the hood over the Borg due to being much more pragmatic and ambitious than their counterparts. The Cybermen would overwhelm the Borg Collective, resulting in the Borg making a new alliance with the Federation to stop the Cybermen from overtaking the universe. AS a result, if there are enemies considered mortal to the Borg aside from Species 8472, the Cybermen would take that spot. When speaking on the Time Lords though, the Borg have an extreme interest in this species and decided to initiate a time travel project to conquer planets due to it. The Doctor cringes at what happened, wishing that they would have stayed to "stop Time Lord meddling aftermaths"—something the Doctor's companions find humorous considering that is all of the Doctor's adventures in a nutshell. The Dalek Empire is disgusted that there is a race that is trying to reach perfection when the Daleks are already perfect as they say. The Borg would love to do nothing else but grab a Dalek since even one would substantially add themselves to the Collective.
• There are some races that the Borg are unwilling to assimilate because they do not add to their "reach for perfection" that defines the Borg and would subtract from it with their presence within the Collective. Either those they reject are too primitive or too unintelligent, with the only way averting their dismissal is being biologically interesting. Fortunately for them and unfortunately for everybody else, the Pantheon is filled with technologically and biologically interesting people to assimilate and add to their "perfection". Although an ironic thing is that they were unable to assimilate anything within the Pantheon, not even at the space the representative drones are stuck in. They just try replicating things they see on the cameras system they enter, ranging from random vehicles that pass by, devices on people, or even activities that normal people wish to never have seen. They are also trying to discover the Omega Molecule within the Pantheon since they deem that the apex of perfection, and think that a certain bug-looking humanoid whose DNA they acquired (Cell rubbed his hand on their space) could be the key to doing so. Cell laughs at such robotic things being so desperate to try to attain HIS biological power.
• The Metroid Hatchling once tried sucking life off the Borg domain, with the Borg drone regarding its activities until Samus pulled it off. To say they are intrigued by the energy-draining creature is putting it lightly, and have placed the Metroid Hatchling as a high-level priority target for them to assimilate. They also saw that Samus was made of a similar material as the Metroid Hatchling (her Fusion Suit would do this), with the Borg placing her assimilation even higher. They would bark at them whenever they pass that, "Resistance is futile" but like all the messages they make, the drones were ignored. Then they managed to spot Samus again atop their ship but on examination of her DNA composition, it was nothing the Borg have ever seen before. SA-X was scouting for Samus and left afterward, not noticing the Borg due to its narrow vision on things. The X Parasite was an even more curious species that the Borg want to add to the other races they gained, though are questioning on HOW to do so since whatever genetics the X Parasite has are something the Borg never dealt with before.
• It becomes not surprising that YHVH calls the Borg the ultimate form of order, as their inherent strength is thinking as one instead of as a group and converting others to the same mindset. However, he would like to poke flaws at their programming for allowing several Borg drones to gain individuality at certain intervals. It was not a deliberate flaw on their end but a costly flaw nonetheless. YHVH also does not see a good reason why a Borg Queen should exist. The Borg Collective strives for one goal of perfection via assimilation and function not under the Borg Queen but the directives already do that for the Borg. It is as if they made a representative for themselves but the representative does not encapsulate their culture nor does the representative does anything. What YHVH does not realize however is that the Borg Queen having somewhat individual thought allows the Borg to react accordingly to situations where their directives are not enough to save them, thus giving longevity to the Borg. That free thought the Borg Queen holds also allows them to reject following YHVH as his ways are not the "perfect structure" that they seek.
• The Master who has used the Cybermen for their purposes several times has an interest in using the Borg for... prosperity's sake. The Master is sure that controlling the Borg will be easier as they are not as ambitious as the Cybermen were. The Borg do not want anything to do with the Master through the Borg Queen proposes that the Master will be a great asset. The Collective will give him a false sense of security then assimilate the Time Lord, thus gaining the knowledge that can help the Borg take over the universe. Then the Master overheard all of that thanks to some sonic technology, so refuses to utilize the Cybermen anymore. The Borg Queen wishes that private conversations can be had within the Borg Collective.
• Cooler who has robotized a planet beforehand thinks the Borg is interesting as a concept and an active culture. That said, even he knows that the Borg could be so much more... if they have someone like him being their leader. Their Borg Queen, despite being intelligent can only know so much and cannot properly react to unpredictable scenarios. Cooler on the other hand, thinks that if the Borg Collective were to link up their hive to him then designate him as the leader, they might bounce back from their current slump and much more. Hilariously, people like to point out that the flaws of the Borg hierarchy can apply to him, and he never led forces beyond a single planet (he refused to lead the Cold Force after all). The only thing that makes Cooler have a legitimate claim against the Borg Queen is his sheer power.
• The Borg have a counterpart with the Bydo Empire, who much like Species 8472 uses Organic Technology and dwell within another dimension. This raises the Bydo's threat level to the Borg much higher than the likes of the Combine, the Grey Goo, or even the Starmen. It does not help the Bydo wants to assimilate anything they come across to but without the pickiness the Borg have. It also is apparent to the Borg that humans of Earth created them, making the Borg question how much intelligence humans hold to be capable of such a feat.
• Lucifer despises the Borg, believing that their brand of subjugation is the ultimate form of locking away the freedoms of others. The Morningstar would extend his hand to make sure that drones who regain their individuality from the Borg Collective remain as such by locking away their consciousness in COMPs that the GUAC hold. Though it causes the Borg Collective to find their misfunctioning units as errors and disposes of them, something Lucifer does not find an issue because Borg members went through as much Body Horror as it is (even if the effects are reversible). The two young men who see how COMPs descend society to chaos are alarmed by Lucifer's actions, as that could open the possibility of the Borg gaining access to Demon Summoning technology. Lucifer cites that he is a demon, so he would know if such a thing were possible... only to hastily double check if any security openings were made.
• All Cybertronians hate the Borg, thinking that their assimilations pervert machinery. The Autobots being the peacekeepers they are, know that the Borg are a threat to life across the universe and sworn to stop them. The Decepticons have a differing perspective, as they see the Borg creating territories as supplanting their power and consider the Borg an enemy. Not to say that Autobots or the Decepticons will try to do an Enemy Mine regarding them but they at least have one more thing in common with each other.
• Tron almost had his data hacked by the Borg drones who remained in the Pantheon, seeing that Tron after being converted from Rinzler was a security liability even in the smallest senses. Then out of nowhere, the Master Control Program saved Tron from basically having his data assimilated. The reason for this is that the Master Control Program sees not as a fellow AI but just a cluster of Users together. Not even they are allowed to ruin the datascape. Then the Master Control Program tried to reprogram Tron for his purposes, only for Tron to escape for that fate as well.
• Sigma dislikes the Borg immensely, as he believes Reploids must be free of any kind of subjugation whether that be from humans or an alien species. That paints Sigma as a major Hypocrite as his actions would convert Reploids to becoming Mavericks even when he is gone, essentially assimilating people from beyond the grave. X and Zero would like to indulge in pointing that fact out but see what Sigma stating are Right for the Wrong Reasons to put it lightly. They are lucky that Borg members are not as versatile as Mavericks, or else an army of such will be worst than what is already present.
• If there is some respect the Borg has for even the smallest of persons, it would be for Ivo Robotnik of all people. When he took over Mobius, Robotnik's Unwilling Roboticisation of the Mobius animal population was ruthless—turning rebels into loyal soldiers in a heartbeat and even concocting a virus that spreads assimilation via touch. The Borg Collective as a whole was impressed on how efficient the man was but only showed disappointment that Robotnik was still consistently beaten by rebels and thought that he became much less threatening when people started calling him Eggman. For this, the Borg want to assimilate Eggman, thinking that he will give them a major boon when they learn of his techniques and knowledge. Those who rebel against Eggman may have nothing but hatred for him but do not want the guy to end up being a tool for a potentially worse threat. Eggman takes the assimilation threat as a compliment though does not want to spend the rest of his life as a cyborg, which is ironic considering Robotnik put MANY animals under that same fate to varying degrees of horror.
• Considering that many Borg ships are in the shape of geometry (likely for efficiency reasons) and extremely large, it comes as no surprise that many resources are sunk to said ships. Steve and Alex (or just general players) were in the need of metals and other materials hard to come by, so a Borg ship would be perfect for them. It is not known how they are into one but they were able to get away with thousands of blocks worth of resources. It took accidentally breaking some essential Borg ship material to alarm the drones of their presence (Borg does not care for intruders until they pose as direct threats ready for assimilation). Though it would seem daunting of a task, Steve and Alex were able to escape with minimum damage after breaking the floor beneath them and then hiding in an alcove where the Borg cannot angle their firearms at. This incident made the Borg Queen realize that perhaps the Borg need to prepare themselves for an even longer period if two normal-looking figures can cause so much damage.
• Though the Borg as a whole is mostly invulnerable, they are at their weakest when it comes to messing with their programming. This especially is devastating considering that Borg members share the same thoughts. Venjix and SKYNET were both vying to take control of the Borg via hacking and tried overriding them several times to serve themselves. Venjix was the first one to try to do it, only to find the alien nature of the Collective's security to be daunting. Venjix as powerful as it is was made by humans and only has familiarity with mostly human technology, so backed out when the going was surely looking tough. SKYNET was the next one in line and though faced with the same issue Venjix had, persisted with trying to hack the Collective as best it could. It was then SKYNET set off a single security alarm, almost having the entire Borg Collective reprogram it instead. The Borg see that both artificial intelligence are threats to them and instead of assimilating the two, want to dispose of them after they are done assimilating SKYNET and Venjix technology.
• A Borg ship came upon one of the Phazon Leviathans in space and attempted to assimilate it as they always do. It did not work out as well as the Borg liked. Every drone on the ship died to be infected by Phazon, and the Phazon infected ship went on autopilot and tried to send a signal for recovery. It was then the next Borg ship came and faced the same fate, to which then another came... and another... and another... It took a bit for the Borg to realize Phazon was dangerous. They tried extracting it for themselves but Dark Samus came around and tried reclaiming for Borg ships for herself. Knowing the danger Phazon poses, the Collective decided to blow up all the ships that succumbed to Phazon and were compromised. Ironically, the Borg were the ones on the resisting end this time.
• Humorously, Gendo Ikari also plans to assimilate all of humanity to be as one as LCL, which is basically reverting humans back to primordial soup. The Borg would come to think doing so would be a waste of a race and make humanity useless (considering they are soup after all), though they do hold interest in studying the devolved humans as such an event would render humans biologically unique. Plus, humans becoming a collective may have made it easier to assimilate their civilization's remains as there is no resistance to stop the Borg. Gendo Ikari is making sure that is Instrumentality makes the human collective at least capable of defending itself to prove that humans are stronger together in the most twisted sense.
• Horde Prime was able to capture several Borg drones for himself after the deflection of their invasive forces. With that, Horde Prime was able to subjugate those Borg members with the chips he holds, essentially assimilating them under his will. The Borg Collective still have awareness through those drones and no matter what they do, they cannot override him. This both intrigues and frustrates the Borg that someone has better assimilation technology than they do.
• Even the heavily machine-centric Borg are seen as meals to the Tyranids due to the drones having flesh on them, no matter how much cybernetics are put there. That said though, the Tyranids have difficulty penetrating Borg ships and also have difficulty eating whatever Borg they come across. The only Borg drones the Tyranids can eat without chocking on wires are the babies kept in nurseries, and even then they have a hard time pulling them out. The Borg consider the Tyranids to be too feral to have any value in assimilating, so they mount a full-scale extermination assault against any Tyranid within their vicinity.
• Team Star Fox have also taken a stand against the Borg due to facing a similar threat before: the Aparoids whom control life and machines with Aparoidedation, a viral spread of their power. The Borg also have the capabilities of assimilating a planet virally with their nanoprobe virus but that process is far more gradual than what the Aparoids are capable of. Star Fox is making sure that the Borg do not meet with the Aparoids, or else either side's capabilities will heighten extremely when it comes to assimilating planets.
• The Blorg Commonality have a particular keen interest towards making the Borg their friend. Even more so due to their similarities right down to their similar names and quotes. The Blorg has had more than one attempt of assimilating the Borg Collective to which they were able to deflect away. Their assimilation has to do more with thinking that befriending the Borg will lead them to greater heights than what they are right now, to which the Borg will agree if they were the ones assimilating instead. The Blorg has tried to do the befriending with individual drones with varying degrees of success but the Borg Collective would have the lasers point to the drones' heads before they became security risks.
  Blorg Commanility: We are Blorg. You will be befriended. Your biological and technological friendliness will be added to our own. Resistance is impolite.).
• Anomalies are always something the Borg look forward to as anomalies may lead to them finding more ways to improve themselves. The Sleeper though is an anomaly that got on their radars almost immediately and is being heavily monitored by the stationed drones. The drones are experimenting to see if they can induce an anomaly to break them out of their current prison and then send back as much knowledge back to the Borg Collective as they could.
• Philemon and Nyarlathotep do not want humans to become like the Borg by any means because doing so will erase humanity's collective unconsciousness due to being replaced by the Borg Collective. They will not be able to have the choice of morals, philosophies, nor actions as all they will dedicate themselves to is achieving the goals of perfection. Both of the gods do not have the highest opinion of humanity and consider them all sheep to raise but they will not allow an alien species to take free will away from people. If anything, it should be humanity's choice to remove free will from themselves or to collectively make a being fulfill that wish.
• Brainiac holds sorrow for the Borg more than anything. He thinks that their pursuit of perfection is an impossible task that will only lead them to constant dead ends. Even with the Omega Molecule, the Borg will never understand how to utilize it or be capable of evolving past their current state that would allow such better change for themselves. Brainiac would like to say the Borg are in a loop that they cannot break out of. Do not mistake Brainiac's sympathy under goodwill though, as Brainiac looks down upon the Borg for not reaching HIS perfection, meaning that his pity is not too dissimilar to a rich person feeling bad for poor people for not having the luxuries they have like clubhouses or a giant collection of shrunken civilizations. Brainiac keeps a Borg vessel within a bottle to study them and he can best compare the Borg's functions to ants.
• Nom Anor and the rest of the Yuuzhan Vong think the Borg's entire existence is heretical to their beliefs. Due to the Yuuzhan Vong opposing mechanical technology, the idea of nanomachines and cybernetic graft onto them forcibly is horrifying. They would rather grab their blasters and shoot themselves than undergo that. Ironically, their opposition is what may be what makes the Yuuzhan Vong interesting to the Borg as their technology bases itself on genetics. That is a feat on its own and the Borg think they will be an excellent addition to their collective.
• "You will be assimilated."

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

TO BE CONTINUED

Polygon Man

Polygon Man, God of Living Polyhedrons (Polygonal Mastermind)

• Greater God
• Symbol: His face with a yellow glint in his eye
• Theme Music: his boss fight music from PlayStation All-Stars
• Alignment: Chaotic Evil
• Portfolio: potential mascots that didn't make the cut, Reality Warper, Unexpected Character, those who were completely unexpected, Trash Talk, thinking he is a god, Flunky Boss, Sinister Geometry, personifying a videogame console and its potential, Living Polyhedron, Background Boss
• Domains: Crossovers, Mascots, Programming, Shapes
• Followers: The Leviathan, The Dodecahedron, Modrons
• Allies: Caius Ballad, Master Xehanort, Doctor Nefarious, Tabuu
• Teeth-Clenched Teamwork with: YHVH
• Enemies:
  • All who participated in his tournament which includes: Sackboy, Sly Cooper, Parappa, Kratos, Radec, Heihachi Mashima, Dante (the other one though), Daniel Fortesque, Nathan Drake, Issac, Ratchet, Clank, Raiden (Metal Gear), Cole MacGrath (both Good and Evil), Zeus, Jak and Daxter, Kat.
  • Non-participant enemies: Sora, Riku, Lightning, Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Master Hand
• Polygon Man was the initial intended mascot of the PlayStation system. Meant to symbolize how many polygons the machine could render, he was rejected as a mascot. In his years of seclusion, Polygon Man would become an all-powerful being. He would return in a "Battle Royale" as the final boss. Now, he comes to the House of Shape and Living Objects to reclaim his former glory.
• When Master Hand was demoted, Polygon Man was allowed to take his seat. However with his re-ascension, he would end up being defeated and banished for years. With Master Hand's interference it would seem he'd never return to the Pantheon proper, however his allies revealed that Living Polyhedron was open. With great reluctance, he would mostly give up his attempt to usurp the Master Hand and be glad he gets to be in the pantheon proper.
  • Those who manage to defeat Polygon Man are blessed with something known as "All-Star Power". Its ability is used for different things, depending on how it is applied ranging from fueling vehicles to go faster, or even giving others temporary power boosts. so far 15 gods^note 16 if you count Cole's evil side have passed this test.
• What triggered his fall from grace was when Polygon Man infamously pitted Sora and Lightning together and evoked Light's anger by putting Sora into his Space Paranoids armor without him knowing, causing her to believe that he is a member of the Sanctum and triggering a rivalry between the two. He also kept an eye on Riku ever since the latter ascended, which Sora was aware of. Using the All-Star Power, Polygon Man successfully captured the Keyblade Master and turned him into a minion, though he was later rescued by Sora through The Power of Friendship.
• After the failed battle with Sora and Lightning, Polygon Man, taking advantage of his Greater God status, ascended Crash Bandicoot and Spyro the Dragon into the Pantheon himself. He forced them to battle as the second event of Polygon Man's Battle Royale: Round Two, but unfortunately for him, they refused as they had been tricked into fighting each other before, and would not fall for the same trick a second time. The two joined with Polygon Man's other enemies and vowed to put a stop to his schemes.
• After hearing that his former prodigies, Solid Snake and Cloud Strife, had joined Master Hand's tournament instead of his own, Polygon Man crashed one of his tournaments and challenged him one-on-one. Master Hand had proven to be the superior one, and sent him packing.
• His closest ally is Tabuu. Like him, Tabuu is a crossover villain and temporarily wrangled away Master Hand. When Tabuu was re-titled as the God of Silent Antagonists, he felt it best to bring Polygon Man back as an ally. Together, the two dream of getting vengeance upon all gods of both Nintendo and the PlayStation.
• Has an alliance of convenience with YHVH. They may not share any ideals, but they're both earned the enmity of most of the Pantheon and as such they're better off working together rather than fighting one another. They're also floating heads, so they have something in common. In addition, he also has an alliance of convenience with The Neuroi, as they're also evil living polyhedrons so they'd be better off sticking together.
• Has some words of wisdom for the Pantheon: "Power is an illusion. Absolute power is a seamless illusion."

Ramiel

Ramiel, Deity of Sinister Geometry (the 5th/6th Angel, The Angel of Thunder, Rami-chan)

• Greater Deity
• Symbol: Itself
• Alignment: True Neutral
• Portfolio: Our Angels Are Different (Very, VERY Different), Sinister Geometry That Can Become Non-Euclidian, Starfish Aliens That Are Actually Earth-Born, Giant Flyer, The Needless, Light Is Not Good, Not Following Human Morality, Wave-Motion Gun, Shock and Awe
• Domain(s): Angels, Geometry, Shapes, Lasers
• High Priest: Miracle Matter, who is part of The Dark Matter Horde
• Interests: YHVH
• Allies: Kaworu Nagisa, Arael
• On good terms with: The Polygon Man, Deoxys
• Enemies: All NERV deities, Keel Lorenz, Kirby, Team Dai-Gurren, Father (FMA), The Imperium of Mankind, Lucifer (Supernatural), Alexander Anderson, SCP-682
• When the previous deity of Sinister Geometry fell from godhood, Ramiel was quick to be accepted to take its place, courtesy of being a perfect octahedron shape in its default configuration...though it has no problem radically altering its shape to suit its needs and respond to whatever's nearby. For the safety of the other deities, Ramiel was placed in one of the largest temples of any deity, since it responds to things nearby by blasting them with particle beams.
• Ramiel is another addition to the list of deities that possess a drill weapon. Ramiel's, however, is one of the most inconvenient ones, since it rotates extremely slowly, Ramiel becomes immobile, and Ramiel can only drill into a very small area directly below it(no word on if it can use its drill in other directions too).
• Beyond reuniting with Adam, Ramiel's goals, as well as the goals of its compatriots, are a mystery to this very day. As such, beyond said compatriots, finding allies is hard for Ramiel. However it is known to feel more comfortable in the Extraterrestrials house. Madame Vastra seems aware of the creature's ironic status of simultaneously being an alien by most metrics yet having Earth-born origins.
• Was the former high priest of the Polygon Man, who was glad to see Ramiel ascend. While inscrutable in actions, Ramiel does have some fondness for the Polygon Man as it recognizes a being similar to itself. Deoxys feels similarly as an enigmatic, shifting alien. It even has a core of sorts like the Angels.
• When Stella had heard Ramiel had ascended, she had just planned to drop in to say hi to a friend of hers. Turns out it was a case of Mistaken Identity. Fortunately, Stella's blistering speed was too much for Ramiel's aim to keep up with, and she decided to not go back there again.
• Despite Ramiel's odd appearance, it and all other angels fall under the Human Subspecies because the humans where Ramiel is from count as an Angel in and of themselves, designated 'Lilin'. You can bet that the House of Humanoids is refusing entry for Ramiel, and they have yet to fathom how such a thing shares most of its DNA with humans. The House of Otherness Abominations was much more accepting of Ramiel by comparison.
• When it comes to other abominations, most were accepting of Ramiel. Slender Man considers it a sort of inversion of himself, being clearly non-human yet over 99% human in DNA. SCP-682, however, was immediately triggered...evidently, something about Ramiel is close enough to 'human' to set it off...and started assaulting the creature. You can probably guess what happened next. Having most of its mass torn off by particle beams, however, was not a deterrent for 682, who developed teeth and claws capable of defeating AT-fields, so their next match will be far less one-sided.
• The term "Angel" is an In Name Only status, Ramiel and its ilk are more like Kaiju than anything. The House of Angels isn't initially accepting of Ramiel, but doesn't have much against it and wants to learn more about the being's intentions and motivations. YHVH is interested in how He can use it and its particle beams to progress His goals, but what this entails yet is unclear.
• The Supernatural version of Lucifer takes great offense at Ramiel being called 'Angel', seeing this massive octahedron as an insult to both the term and to angels everywhere. This is purely out of racism, only exaggerated by his disgust of humanity and learning the angels are a Human Subspecies...somehow. The SMT version of Lucifer has a neutral opinion on Ramiel, but has an interest in how Ramiel relates to humans, among other things.
• The Imperium of Man is disgusted by any claims of Ramiel being related to humanity and their origins in any way, along with Ramiel not communicating and preferring a 'shoot first, ask questions never' approach, so the Imperium treats Ramiel and its kin in kind. Alexander Anderson, meanwhile, considers Ramiel a major threat to humanity and a floating, beam-shooting, shape-shifting blasphemy against true Angels everywhere, though he's aware true Angels everywhere can be pretty strange themselves.

Intermediate Gods

Queen Chrysalis

Queen Chrysalis, Goddess of Impersonation (Changeling Queen, "Princess Mi Amore Cadenza")

• Intermediate Goddess
• Symbol: A twisted black unicorn horn surrounded with a Sickly Green Glow
• Theme Song: This Day Aria, A Better Way to Be Bad^note Shared with Lord Tirek and his Cozy Glow
• Alignment: Neutral Evil
• Portfolio: The Ageless, Body Horror, Taking another person's appearance, ponyshifting, Illusion, Feeding Off Of The Power of Love, Brainwashing, The Chessmaster, Control Freak, Deposed Queen of Insect-People, It's All About Me, Smug Snake, Knowing Mistreatment of Her Own Kind And Losing Their Approval, Treats Friendship Like A Disease, Beyond Redemption, Defiant to the End
• Domains: Impersonation, Brainwashing, Shapeshifting
• Heralds: The Changeling Hive, fanatical Bronies, and Fluffle Puff ; Nowadays, just the latter, and a few of the second
• Enemies:
  • MLP deities: Almost Everyone Else, especially Starlight Glimmer, Spike the Dragon, Discord, the Mane Six, Princess Celestia, Princess Cadance, and Shining Armor
  • Others: Ange & Princess, Sumireko Usami
• Opposes: Anthony Higgs, Samus Aran, Black Mage
• Vitriolic Best Buds: Lord Tirek
• Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: Grogar
• Evil Counterpart To: The Vampire King
• Rival: Double Trouble
• Ascended to the Pantheon fraudulously, under the guise of another mortal who was due for ascension to divinity. Was soon unmasked, but eventually it was decided by the gods to avoid the trouble of banishing her and letting her fill this position.
• Often attempts kidnapping of various people and posing as them to feed off the love of their love interests. Is not very good at replicating emotions though, and usually gets unmasked by others. One such instance of this is when she preyed on the recently ascended Ange & Princess, posing as the former while said spy was away to feed off of the latter, luring her closer to the alicorn's temple. Unfortunately for Chrysalis, however, Ange managed to intercept her and rescue Princess in time, backed by the rest of Team White Pidgeon and another deity that Chrysalis had begun toying with, Sumireko Usami.
• Her clever mind and shapeshifting powers can grant her entrance to certain secret reunions she was not supposed to be part of. This is sometimes foiled by having to say a password she doesn't know, though other times she manages to remedy it with a brainwashing blast to the face. That might not even work either since they have wised up to her techniques (with the Spy already in their ranks), though a few are considering inviting her to the Council.
  • A recent reveal has even shown she managed to avoid being eaten by a dragon and escape imprisonment by Celestia in a volcano with nothing more than her own guile. A feat she promptly repeated in the Pantheon proper when she ended up earning the ire of Smaug when he caught her snooping around his treasures. Unknown to him, she was testing to see if she could successfully absorb the selfish love he held for his gold... and found to her disappointment that she couldn't. Treasure love isn't true love, but greed. She has not visited his or any other Dragon Hoard since then.
• That distorted black tiara she wears? It was originally the golden crown of King Orion of Timbucktu, which she stole and magically warped after conquering his city, which is when she started calling herself Queen Chrysalis rather than just Chrysalis.
• Is strictly prohibited from entering the House of Love and Affection. Not because she would consider it an all-you-can-eat buffet lying in wait, but because the sheer amount of unstoppable love energy would cause rather messy consequences. At the same time, however, it has been known that she tends to underestimate the very energy she feeds on and, prior to her ascension, it has been used against her.
• Is now more carefully monitored after several of the weaker gods were found trapped inside green slimy cocoons. What she intended to do with them (besides siphon them for love energy) is unclear, and frankly nobody really wants to find out. The Spirits of Harmony are distressed at Chrysalis's presence in the Pantheon and have constantly kept their guard up as well.
• There was once a time when Chrysalis had successfully infiltrated the House of Love only to be intercepted by Flonne, who, upon learning that Chrysalis feeds on the Power of Love, decides to give her a very long lecture about it. Chrysalis has since then considered whether infiltrating the House of Love was even worth the effort.
  • She decided that it was; it's just a matter of finding a way to neutralize Flonne. And Laharl. And Etna. And lots and lots of Prinnies (and even if she can subjugate some of the last for her own, they're leagues less competent than her own changelings). And that's just the top of the list.
• Recently, a number of worshippers have provided Chrysalis with love willingly. She used to be quite conflicted about this, since they see her as a tragic woobie rather than a powerful Queen. Now, she takes advantage of free power.
• More recently, she has been sighted with a follower, a pink, extremely furry pony with intense love for everyone, including the Queen. She cannot speak, but she emits raspberries and small "Gasp" noises. It is not known what she sees in the Queen, but her love for Chrysalis is so much that Chrysalis uses her as an endless food source and/or mobile bed. They have recently moved into a house together on the outskirts of the House of Food, though what this says about their relationship is not known.
• A recent reveal about Queen Chrysalis' origins has lead many deities to treat her with much more caution than before, especially when it was discovered that she's nearly as old as Celestia and Luna themselves.
• Despises Ato-ko with a passion, as her couple-destroying threaten her changelings' food source. Upon learning just how Black Mage's Hadoken utilizes The Power of Love (reducing the amount of love in the universe), he has also become a bane to her existence that she wound up opposing him since she needs love to subsist (she otherwise quite approves). In fact, Black Mage is so much of a threat that she 's willing to work with Princess Cadance to stop him if it comes to fighting him.
• Speaking of Cadance, upon finding out she had ascended, and all the good equestrian deities would be in attendance, she showed up to take revenge. This time, she brought many evil deities from the House of Hatred and Rancor, who joined to help crush all the joy and happiness that would be present. While the party goers put up a surprisingly effective fight, Chrysalis had power behind her such that her victory was inevitable. Too bad for her Shining Armor, whom wasn't expected to attend being non-ascended, was able to show up thanks to the god he was High Priest to, Anthony Higgs. Empowered by their mutual love, Shining and Cadance sent Chrysalis blasting off again.
  • After Anthony Higgs ruined her "perfect" plan, Chrysalis certainly "remembers him". She's refraining from outright attacking him since that would enrage his "Princess", Samus Aran, who's preaching for wiping out entire hostile species and planets is more than Chrysalis would dare fight. Between what Princess Celestia did to her hundreds of years back, (her hole filled appearance was the result), and her not taking Twilight Sparkle becoming a princess well, and this, at this rate, any princess will be a target for her retribution.
    • And to add more salt to the wound, Shining Armor would eventually ascend into the Pantheon and ally himself with Anthony Higgs. This has started to put the Changeling Queen over the edge.
• While it's destroyed in her home universe and its pieces salvaged for Canterlot Castle security, Chrysalis's temple and its surrounding premises contains a barrier that nullifies ALL magic that is not of the changelings. How strong is it? Even magic-using Greater Gods find their powers stripped while with in the premises, as Discord can attest to. The secret? Her throne deep inside. Technology-based deities don't have this problem, though, while for Magitek deities, it goes one way or another, depending on how much of it is 'advanced technology' and how much of it is mystical.
• After certain events, there has been a massive decrease in changeling followers, now that they discovered a better way to feed themselves. Chrysalis has sworn to wipe out those insurgents, led by their new King Thorax, but they're nowhere to be found in the Pantheon so far, and several have taken refuge in the Houses of Love and Affection and Friendship and Camaraderie.
  • And after the truth of her rule, where it's revealed that she's been deliberately starving her race with their forceful love-stealing method just to stay in power, that number has plummeted to a scant few; Fluffle Puff and the most dedicated/delusional of fanboys. Not a single changeling remains.
  • Also, because of what she pulled, if Discord wasn't her enemy now, the draconequus has since made it personal.
    • The non-pony God she hates the most is Spike. Why the little dragon, you ask? It was because Spike befriending Thorax that he would eventually learn that sharing love would benefit the Changelings more, thus becoming THE thing that would derail Queen Chryasli's reign once and for all. When the Changeling Queen tried to go after Spike for this, she was met with Spike's allies, who threw her back into her temple as a warning to not mess with the dragon.
• Upon learning that one time Chrysalis kidnapped the Cutie Mark Crusaders, the Changeling Queen got a RUDE awakening from two wrestlers who proceeded to bathe her in blood. She's hated them ever since.
• As a "cold-hearted ruler who actually doesn't have what's best for their people in mind and duping them with 'righteous' missions", someone has compared Chrysalis to Ghetsis Harmonia. That said, besides both working for the GUAE, the two don't have that much in common. Also, his lust for power, lack of love for anybody else, and his far-reaching ambitions make it too dangerous for her to even deal with him anyway.
• Thanks to having been strong-armed by Grogar^*technically, Discord pretending to be Grogar, Chrysalis is one of the few besides Mard Geer who can safely visit Tirek without much risk of getting drained. They even get along to an extent, though not without occasionally sniping on one another.

• Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: Lust the Lascivious
• Unknown Relationship: The Truth
• Dante wasn't certain why Melkor had gotten some allies in the GUAE to revive her after she was devoured by one of her own homunculi, but she noticed that she was in her last body that she had transferred into before entering the Pantheon with most of the Homunculi waiting. Once serving as the herald of Father Homunculus in her aged-woman body, she would now be allowed fully entry into the Pantheon.
• As the teacher of Izumi Curtis, she is known as one of the oldest and most powerful alchemists in Amestris. Many sorcerers and alchemists were surprised by how talented she was in keeping herself alive for over 400 years. Combined with being able to open up the doorway to the Truth, many admitted her talents surpassed many alchemists in the Pantheon. Naturally her former student was furious that she arrived into the Pantheon either to twist around some other foolish woman or even worse find a new body to steal.
• Edward was enraged when he confronted her in another version of Amestris when she tried using a new girl's body (Rosé Thomas) to possibly have sex with Hohenheim's child. On that note, in that same other version of Amestris she'd been in a relationship with Hohenheim for several decades.
  • When Dante met Hohenheim here, she felt like he still wanted her back, even wanting her son to join them here. A furious Hohenheim informed her that he and his sons in the Pantheon were the ones from Father's timeline, not hers, but he already knew that even his other version had made it clear it was over for their relationship. The ascended Edward just finds Dante a sad excuse of a human being, whereas Hohenheim was saddened to know that another version of himself not only cooperated with someone like Dante but also would take innocent lives just to prolong his just like the Dwarf in the Flask.
  • Alphonse also couldn't stand just thinking about this alchemist, as her method of using him as a Philosopher's Stone along with causing a war to make another made him hate her deeply.
• Father and most of the Homunculi are willing to work with Dante, but the former Dwarf in the Flask made it clear to her she is not the leader of his flock of creations. Also, despite claiming she wasn't human anymore he believed she was still inferior to him.
• Lust was far less willing to cooperate with Dante considering how she was treated in the past by her former master. Dante knew that compared to the other homunculi she was far more difficult to work with, not counting Greed.
• Of course, Greed was the first deity to try killing Dante as he was furious about her killing him in her world along with commenting on Lyra already having a bad odor the last time they met.
• The aging alchemist entered a feud with others who sought out methods to obtain immortality, and Voldermort in particular wanted to learn more about her world's version of the Philosopher's Stone wanting more power for himself.
• Upon giving out orders to Bradley along with the rest of High Command, she looked forward to causing a whole new war in the Pantheon to not only create another stone but also to see the gods and goddess wrapped in chaos and fear.
  • Not all of Dante's orders are known to anyone outside of High Command, but a few targets have been identified who she wants captured: the three law enforcement/military Street Fighters whose raid on Bradley's temple barracks exposed the details of his ascension, as well as Solidus Snake and the Honnoji Academy Elite Four for their attempt to attack the Homunculi. Bartlet, who's been opposing Bradley, now figures the team is priming to come after him. He's standing his ground.
• Roy and Riza pointed how similar Dante was to Father, but also being quite different with her shallow nature as she was still human…to some extent. They also pointed out the fact she used the gate to send Edward, his brother, and father into what seemed like the original Earth, although no one was sure if this was the real world or another universe barring similarities to it.
  • Also some deities claim that she even appeared in a more modern world.
• Dante gained a bad reputation from Rin and Sakura for her body-swapping ways, and she even considered pulling this trick on Rin and Sakura due to their levels of mana. As for Illyasviel, she hates the idea of homunculi being former humans who were used and manipulated for the selfish goals of this alchemist.
• There is another Dante in the Pantheon who despises this alchemist, particularly given the fact she created Homunculi based around the Seven Deadly Sins.
  • As far as the devil-hunter Dante Sparda was concerned this woman was just an old, ugly broad no matter if she takes a body that looks more appealing or not. She was also disappointed with Vergil's betrayal of High Command after a week of her teaching him alchemy as a herald in Father's temple, making him and his witch ally Kat further targets of hers.
• She has co-operated with the Red Ribbon's lead scientist on perfecting his link system as a potential new way to take over someone else's body without expelling the original host soul and thus avoiding the usual decay problem with her alchemical method of swapping bodies.

Doctor Clef

Dr. Alto Clef, God of Glamour Failure (Agent Ukulele, Ukulele Man, claimed to be and/or is Satan, Adam, Jophiel (the Angel who cast man out of Eden and guards it), Francis Wojciechoski)

Dr Clef at a gunshop. Note that he probably doesn't look like this, the photo just can't capture his head right.

• Intermediate God
• Symbol: An A major chord played on a ukulele
• Alignment: Nominally he's Lawful Neutral. In reality, he's somewhere between True Neutral and Chaotic Evil
• Portfolio: Bunny-Ears Lawyer, Token Evil Teammate (Ironically The Opposite With Type Greens), Can't Be Properly Shown On Tape Or Photographs, Asexuality (except for Lilith), Multiple-Choice Past compounded by Loose Canon, Consummate Liar, Musical Theme Naming, Not Being Totally Amoral, Definitely Not What He Appears
  • Potential backstories and identities: Being The Devil (not in the literal sense, But He Does Rebel Against God), Being Adam from The Garden of Eden, The Father Of SCP-166, Possibly Destroyed The Challenge As A Reality Warper, Trauma Congo Line, Shell-Shocked Veteran, Fearful For The Daughter Produced By His Rape, Papa Wolf (if SCP-4231 is to be believed)
• Domains: The Foundation, Lies, Shapeshifting, Trickery, Containment, Music, Ukulele
• Part of: The SCP Foundation
• Allies: The Men In Black, SCP-166 (his daughter), Lilith (SMT), Lucifer, Morrigan and Lilith Aensland, Satan(South Park), The Mad Hatter, Screwy Squirrel
• Drinking buddies with: Wade Wilson/Deadpool, Loki, Bugs Bunny
• Enemies: SCP-682, YHVH, the Otherness Abominations on principle, rapists (particularly Griffith)
• Opposed by: The House of Angels
• Annoys^note of note: Panty Anarchy, Slaanesh, Satan (SMT), Dis
• The SCP Foundation has a number of colorful doctors and researchers. Doctor Alto Clef is a strange but highly effective agent who's described as an inveterate liar, and has a preference for the ukulele and a wide-brimmed hat. Once a member of the GOC, he's a Type Green who's...peculiarity and shapeshifting means his face can't be captured with a picture. It either shows an animal, or a middle figure.
• Probably the most amoral mainstay Foundation member, though compared to most Type Greens he's the White Sheep due to not going mad or abusing his powers. Not that he won't sometimes mess with people using it. Loki and him had a few drinks and decided to have fun messing with people using their glamour, though Dr Clef won't do stuff counter-productive to his job.
• Due to the intentional Loose Canon of the SCP Foundation, and being a Consummate Liar, Dr Clef's true identity is impossible to discern. Most think that he is in some way Satan, though not literally and more in a metaphorical sense. He does rebel against God, and regards YHVH as an entity the SCP Foundation should probably deal with. Or maybe he's just playing it up. He hints at being the Biblical Adam, so there's that.
• Has the attention of a number of devils in the pantheon. The SMT Satan feels its best not to antagonize him or the SCP Foundation, but he does find Dr Clef's claims to be annoying. The Emperor of the Kingdom Dolorous is no fan of anyone claiming to be the Devil when he is convinced he is the one true Satan, and believes Dr Clef to merely be a manifestation of his "Father of Lies" side. The Satan of South Park was much more positive, since Clef is the kind of guy who'd enjoy his luaus and style.
• Possesses a superhuman level of asexuality, being immune to any SCP that affects sexuality. At the same time, he is considered repellent to most, if not all women he meets. Panty Anarchy was one exception on her end, but completely failed to rile him. Slaanesh was annoyed he had no lust to prod. Of course, this is the same man who puts cinnamon twists in his nostrils.
• The only exception to his asexuality is Lilith, or SCP-336 as she's known. Perhaps this hints at the possibility of him being Adam after all, who in a way did "cast man out of the Garden of Eden". When it comes to the SMT Lilith, they appear to get along but it's unknown whether they mistook each other for "their" Adam and Lilith or what.
• Given his relationship, Dr Clef has a fondness for the Aensland siblings. This probably has something to do with both the Biblical Lilith, and how most canons point to him being the father of SCP-166, a sort of succubus. The SMT Lucifer is interested in Dr Clef, and the two seem to like each other's attitudes.
• As a Foundation member with some screws loose, Dr Clef enjoys the company of both the Screwy Squirrel and the Mad Hatter. He is also drinking buddies with Deadpool and Bugs Bunny, which only leads to further pantheon chaos. On a more serious note, his status as a high ranking member of the SCP Foundation is that
• He did not take kindly to Dr. W testing children with SCP-682, who he would feed to. Or Mind Rape, but especially those who use their powers to literally rape people (not that he doesn't act like a jackass afterwards). For this reason, he loathes Griffith. One origin story implies a more personal reason: he was the victim of a physical, emotional and sexually abusive relationship with Lilly, who was a worshiper of the Scarlet King. SCP-166 was the result, and as a coping mechanism he became a bitter jackass. Though take it with a grain of salt, as there is no canon.

Natsuru Senou

Natsuru Senou, God/dess of Superpowered Forms With Different Genders (The Densest Material Known To Man)

  • As a female: zigzags between Faux and Bonafide Action Girl, Attractive Bent-Gender, Adorkable, Clueless Chick-Magnet, Even the Girls Want Her, keeping her male form's height, Kawaiiko, Girly Girl to Akane's Tomboy, Playing with Fire, Shy Blue-Haired Girl

• Annoys: Helga G. Pataki
• Pitied by: Touya Mochizuki, Yumina Ernea Belfast, Miku Izayoi, Princess Cadance, Kyu Sugardust, Tohka Yatogami
• After spending time in It-That-Must-Not-Be-Named^note the place those with Adaptation Decay go, the Court of the Gods decided to bring Natsuru to the Pantheon proper after reviewing the available examples for Super Gender-Bender. With two of the most prominent examples already holding other tropes, it was decided to ascend Natsuru to hold this title. Without Kaede to mind-control him and much of his life, Natsuru hopes he can have a better life here, and better relations with others this time. He doesn't have his Unwanted Harem here though, but that can be considered a good thing.
• After getting his new temple arranged, Natsuru decided to sign up for the Magical Girl Sisterhood. It was a bit of a scandal the first time he was in the Pantheon before getting shafted due to the effects of Adaptational Decay, but the presence of two other Super Gender Benders already there alleviated the impact, and his stupidity isn't that much of an issue since the Super Gullible Sister Nana is there too, though it's mainly because her girlfriend Weiss Winterprison is also a member and vouched on her behalf. Not to mention that he'd likely been mind controlled for much of his time with Kaede around and that has probably mushed his brain.
  • Thankfully, despite having had people go over Natsuru in her world, especially as a Kämpfer, several in the Sisterhood are either already spoken for, are too young to even consider it, or are not interested enough to immediately glomp her at the first chance. And those who do approach her are either offering to teach her or spar against her without murdering intent.
• When she actually has the brains to fight, she can be pretty awesome in battle, to the surprise of many who cross her. One time, Natsuru quickly defeated all four of the white Kämpferinnen in one shot, and then maked a more powerful Kaede Sakura—who had already defeated Mikoto, Akane, and Shizuku—retreat. This got him the interest of several fire-users who hope to teach him or eliminate him despite his regular stupidity and incompetence.
• Despite having a female form, Natsuru is apparently so pure s/he gets frightened to death with embarrassment just looking at his/her naked female self, much less try to find out what they feel like or even go to the restroom with them. In comparison, Souta went through the motions the first time around, and Souji was too into twintails to even consider the female body that when he transformed casually for the first time with the chance to take off his outfit, he only removed the gloves to fondle his Tail Red form's twintails. Although, there was the time period after Acena gave him a kiss on the lips when his default form turned female as a result of emotional turmoil, and after waking to his teammate's shouting and being brought over to the mirror to see his female body, he only casually squished his new (larger) assets, and probably didn't have much of a Freak Out.
  • And because he was been a frequent victim of Attempted Rape since becoming a Kämpfer, regardless of gender, he tries to stay away from the House of Love whenever possible, and never voluntarily goes to the sub-House of Lust.
• There are several who think his level of stupidity and incomprehensiveness to love is inconceivable. How much? No matter how many times one of his love interest Shizuku tells him that they're on a date, Natsuru is absolutely sure that she's just messing with him and that they're really just trying to lure the enemy (the white Kämpfer) out of hiding. It's as if Natsuru has a hard time accepting that he's popular with girls, even after his teammate Akane said it straight to his face.
  • Actually, it turns out that his stupidity is nothing but a farce. He is very well aware of the girls' feelings, but pretends to be a complete idiot because he knows how jealous and violent they are. If he were to pick any of them, the rest would turn him into a Human Pincushion, and he would rather not suffer that fate. So far, he's only confided this to his fellow Super Gender-Benders. Souji sort of gets the feeling, except it's Elemerians gushing over his loli Tail Red form.
  • That said, given the other idiotic things he's done, the two wonder if he sometimes goes too far on this masquerade. Like trying to talk it out with someone just after getting out of their brainwash, thus naturally getting Brainwashed and Crazy again. But given he was brainwashed for much of his time with Kaede, that just might be the reason.
• Now that his Unwanted Harem (of three) have made it clear that they want him to pick one of them, he knows that to do so would bring the wrath of the unchosen down on him and her and Kaede would torment him and his chosen too. This garnered a lot of pity from everybody who's had tangled love dynamics.
  • Princess Cadance and Kyu Sugardust both want to find a way to get him out of this jam, though the alicorn is also presenting Natsuru's situation as an example for why harems are often a bad idea, to which the fairy rebuts that if it were up to her, she wouldn't pick such lethally violent girls for him in the first place, and that because he didn't even want a harem to begin with, Cadance's argument is invalid. As a result, Natsuru feels like he's got two more girls fighting over him, though for non-romantic reasons, especially since one of them's already Happily Married.
• Is pitied by Miku Izayoi for his/her love problems. While she is totally crazy over his female form, like any other girl at school, she later found out about what Kaede Sakura had done to him. Feeling her own actions were not better than those performed by Kaede, Miku has done her best to ensure no one suffers what Natsuru suffered.
• Tohka Yatogami also cannot help but feel sorry for Natsuru, and not just because they share the same voice. While his stupidity does get annoying at least when he is not faking it, she is genuinely concerned that his harem is made up of overly aggressive and clingy girls who won't take no for an answer. And don't even get her started on the fact that the girl he does like has been hypnotizing him for her own ends. All of this has made Tohka to decide to make things easier on Shido and support his quest to save the Spirits.

• The castle that Ico and Yorda spent so much time trying to escape belonged to this shadowy monarch. She is ultimately responsible for Ico's imprisonment that landed him in the castle in the first place; her purpose for him, as it turned out, was for him to die and join her horde of shadow warriors, but that was not to be as he managed to escape his coffin through dumb luck. And then there were the Queen's designs regarding her daughter Yorda, whom she planned to use as a vessel to transfer her life into, as a replacement for her ageing body. And no, the Queen had no qualms about subjecting her own daughter to such an abhorrent thing. Ico decided to take Yorda with him, so the Queen sent her shadows to block their progress. Once Yorda was snatched from him, Ico found his way into the Queen's throne room and slayed her, destroying the accursed castle and fully freeing himself and Yorda.
• Something strange was going on with the Colossi, as they were invading populated areas and destroying everything around them, and even the most peaceful members were suddenly displaying extreme hostility. Yorda heard what was going on and convinced a reluctant Wander (who only acquiesced because the Colossi were acting so wild, not even he stood a chance against them) to take her and Ico so she could attempt to pacify them. Yorda soon found that a dark force was controlling her friends, one that felt eerily like mommie dearest. Yorda ultimately managed to regain control of the Colossi and the darkness inside them floated away to coalesce somewhere else. That somewhere else turned out to be Don Quixote's temple, and the mad knight, seeing the distressed damsel begging for his help against the hoodlums that had attacked her, turned his sword on Wander and the children, demanding to know the meaning of it all. He would not believe Wander, Yorda or Ico's words about him harboring an evil queen, so Wander, who refused to fight one of his few allies, decided it was a lost cause and left with the protesting children, telling them they had to resign themselves that the Queen was here to stay (but he would make sure she couldn't get her hands on them, or the Colossi, ever again).
• So it was that by causing a ruckus and fooling a crazed old man (whom she keeps wrapped around her little finger for the future) that the Queen came to be in the Pantheon. Given this new form of immortality she found herself with, you'd think the Queen would give up on any designs of taking over Yorda's body, given there's no real need for it to happen anymore. Whether or not that has occurred to her, it seems like she has no intentions of leaving Yorda and Ico in peace, be it because of her vexation at being defeated by them or she is just so vain that she simply needs a younger body to feel fulfilled. Thankfully for Yorda and Ico, they are no longer all on their own facing up against this enemy, as they have made a lot of friends who are more than glad to help in not letting the monstrous Queen have her way. Unfortunately for them, that goes both ways.
• There's a persistent rumor that the Queen is in fact Mono, the girl that Wander worked so hard to save. Naturally, this severely offends Wander, who refuses to believe his beloved Mono could turn into someone so vile, and those who go up to him to insist the theory holds water are putting themselves at risk of getting stabbed for the sake of Mono's honor. The Queen herself has heard the theory and has some interest in Wander and Mono because of it, especially as Wander is also speculated to be the ancestor of the horned children that were sacrificed to her to become her shadow soldiers. Seeing Wander's devotion to Mono, the Queen believes that if Wander could ever be convinced that she is the same person as his lady, she might have a fiercely loyal warrior in her hands. Wander is so staunchly against the idea that it would require careful, long-term manipulation, though.
• Her temple couldn't really be anything else but the massive, puzzle-laden castle she calls home, lovingly restored in the Pantheon after it fell to ruins back in her world after she was defeated. The castle is so intricate that she couldn't ask for better defense against those who would trespass with the goal of killing her, although it does also attract a good number of adventurers who are just interested in solving the puzzles than killing her. The Queen's lack of interest in killing, or even showing herself to, this last type of trespasser might pass for the one act of "kindness" she is capable of; she probably just doesn't want to bother herself with such a non-issue.
• Has the full support of The Child Abuse Supporters behind her, particularly fellow monarch Fire Lord Ozai. They are simply aghast at how Yorda can be such an ungrateful child to the one who birthed her and how she could have failed to fulfill the purpose her progenitor had designated for her. On a similar note, there is also the Evil Queen that attempted to murder Snow White, her stepdaughter, because she could not bear that her beauty came second to that of her ward. The Queen still considers her plans for Yorda to be about more than merely preserving her beauty, but she certainly seems to sympathize with the Evil Queen for having been frustrated in her pursuits. Both of them, and the Child Abuse Supporters as well, were dreadfully unlucky to have birthed such unruly children after all.
• Her power to commit body-snatching specifically on her offspring is at the very least of interest to other deities with similar, probably more extensive powers in the same mould. Zouken Matou would like to do research into the type of magic that allows the Queen to do that, and in the meantime seems satisfied with helping her get her hands on Yorda, if only to get her mind off the possibility of going after alternate vessels, which he is always in need of given his quick-acting Possession Burnout, and he doesn't need the competition. Given Zouken put his granddaughter Sakura through unbelievably hellish procedures for the sake of turning her into a vessel, he is clearly indifferent about what the Queen is trying to do to her own flash and blood. The Queen also gets support in her goals from Zouken's rival Dante, who for a change seems to be in agreement with the old bag of worms about cutting down on the competition for new vessels.
• Orochimaru and Xehanort are also infamous for their schemes involving body theft, but unlike Zouken and Dante, they appear to have no intention of helping the Queen with her goals; after suffering some very decisive defeats, Orochimaru and Xehanort seem to be more or less done with being active villains and would rather lay low than bring more righteous wrath upon themselves. That doesn't mean they are not interested in her powers (for the sake of scientific curiosity, they insist) and observing how things play out for her, and they will probably never bother to get in her way unless the heroes of their respective universes ask them to.
• Xehanort was awfully polite to the Queen when she came knocking to inquire after the nature of those creatures of darkness known as the Heartless, which remind Her Majesty of her shadow soldiers. Hearing they are formed from beings who lose their hearts, she thinks that it's a much more effective process than her own method of locking children in coffins and waiting for them to die. Not to mention the Heartless seem to have far more variety of utility and powers than the shadow warriors. With these things in mind, the Queen decided to add the creatures to her ranks, and the Heartless seem rather glad about their new dark master. Xehanort gave her the token warning not to let herself be too taken in by the darkness or the Heartless would consume her, although the Queen, who's so steeped in darkness she may as well be made of it, might just be the sort of being for whom that would never be a concern. She certainly shows more promise than Maleficent, in his opinion.
• For the Receptor Children Maria, Kirika and Shirabe, the Queen is basically an unrepentantly evil version of Finé, an ancient Babylonian priestess who had plans to possess one of them via Genetic Memory to fulfill her long term goals. However, Finé instead chose to throw away her goals and sacrifice herself to save Shirabe. Very unlike Finé's self-sacrificial nature, he Queen has never been known to show any warm feelings for anyone whatsoever, not even her own daughter who's a mere tool to her and whom she kept confined in a small cage, and for this the Receptor Children regard her as a beast they must take down in memory of their redeemed master.

• Seth is the leader of S.I.N., a criminal organization that supplied Shadaloo with weapons and he himself sought to take over Shadaloo itself after M. Bison's apparent death. Having organized a World Warrior tournament in order to lure out Ryu and take over the Satsui no Hado to power his BLECE machine, Seth instead was defeated by M. Bison who turned out to be not dead at all and then he was finished off by Juri Han, a woman he himself was manipulating. Seth's consciousness however was transported to Doll Unit Zero, reawakened by Juri after someone tasked her to do so but that only resulted in Seth's suffering an existential crisis and in his madness, perceive everything as M. Bison, even though at that point he was long dead. Given how both of his bodies are essentially naked and lack both visible genitals and nipples, Seth was relocated by an unknown benefactor into the Pantheon with that title, an idea many thought it wouldn't end well at all.
• His entry into the Pantheon wasn't exactly a peaceful one. For once, it's unclear who smuggled the Zero Doll Unit into the Pantheon with Seth's consciousness in it but many point towards Juri being the one responsible for bringing Seth into the mix. Given his rather poor state of mind, the first Seth did is search for Bison, who fortunately for him was still alive in the Pantheon halls but before the two broke into a scuffle, the authorities managed to subdue the android and deactivate him into a secure location. It didn't last, as he basically turned himself back online and gunned towards Bison again.
• Thanks to some outside help, Seth is able to switch around his bodies, both with his original male Seth and with the Doll Unit Zero model, though the latter tends to be his default appearance. That more or less made his insane outburst less frequent, enough to realize that his default body is based on Juri, someone he isn't exactly fond of but he can manage. The biggest surprise for the Pantheon denizens as a whole is that Seth kept his manly voice in both forms and while Seth is technically genderless given his android origins, he still goes by male pronouns.
• Has attempted to rebuild S.I.N. but his organization has been basically defunct since his death and he had to scramble what he could in order to get his plans going. One of his first courses of action was allying himself with a similar conglomerate, The Corpus. They were interested in partnering with a fellow Arms Dealer though in this case they were much more curious in how the Tandem Engine could allow them to maximize their profits with Seth unaware that they plan to use him. In fact, they were the ones that managed to build his male body back but that one isn't as practical as the Doll Unit Zero sadly. The Corpus was also very interested in mass producing the Seth clones but that plan went nowhere once Seth himself noticed and given his own issues with being a mass produced clone of Bison, he almost threatened to destroy their newfound allies but he eventually calmed down.
• Seth has a rather nasty complex regarding his origins, as he does NOT take kindly to being referred as a number and him just one of many of Bison's spare bodies certainly bothers him. That's why he relates a lot to Mewtwo and his origins but the Pokémon has no interest on whatever criminal activity the android plans to get him involved in. Similarly, Alex Mercer and Seth do share the same overview towards their origins but Mercer is far more destructive towards his enemies and the only reason he is somewhat amicable with Seth is because his model has been proven rather hard to absorb, not to mention there is a high possibility Seth can copy Mercer's abilities or even take over should he absorve him.
• Him and Metal Sonic have developed a rather strange but interesting partnership, dead set on destroying both of their counterparts to prove their superiority, Seth even promising to improve Metal Sonic's abilities should he let him. There was also another android who has a similar origin to Seth in the form of Cell but the bio-android found Seth beneath him only taking some minor interest in the Tandem engine and the fact that both can copy abilities. Related to that, Cell's creator is somewhat is particularly not fond of as given is ambitions and creations of other androids remind him to his own history with Bison and is amused that at least he met his ends at the hands of one of his androids.
• Theorized that he is named after the third son of Adam and Eve, Seth isn't exactly known to have sibling issues but his relationship with Abel from his universe is rather shaky since he is believed to be one of the many Bison bodies. Seth has also come to blows with another artificial humanoid, SCP-073 or better known as Cain, who is believed to be the real deal or at least a copy and considering how dangerous and insane Seth can be, he has made an effort to contain him just like the Foundation tries to do with his brother Able.
• Anyone that remotely reminds him of Bison usually throws him into an insane frenzy that never ends well for anyone involved. One particular day, the Nostalgic Critic designed to done his dictator costume from Kickassia when Seth happened to be strolling by and he received a beating so harsh he barely had a discernable face, only remembering a tall humanoid female screaming like a maniac and telling him "i will destroy you Bison!". A similar incident occurred with the Soldier when he wore one of his hats but he was spared the same fate as the critic since he at least managed to avoid the android's wrath.
• He can copy and mimic the abilities of his opponents and that's one of the reasons many find him dangerous even if his mind has deteriorated considerable. Some have tried to remove the Tandem Engine from his body only to be met with a tremendous beating and their abilities being stolen. Others have tried to use it for nefarious purposes, like Shang Tsung who tried to defeat Seth and steal his Tandem Engine using his soul magic. Little did the sorcerer know that Seth lacks a soul and that saved him from Shang Tsung's machinations forcing the sorcerer to retreat and plan a workaround.
• Ironically, Seth doesn't believe in the divine and the fact that he was chosen as a "god" baffles him. He still firmly believes that the "mystical" is nothing but made up fairytales, otherwise how is he able to copy said mystical abilities and to Seth, only him is the true embodiment of a monumental being or, in his own worse, the "universe". Yet his Tandem Engine does allow him to copy other deities' magic, driving into question if his abilities go beyond what he thought were possible or he is so delusional that he believes said "mystical" powers cannot compare to his might.
• "My name is Seth!"

• Aisling is a curious and spirited fairy who lives deep in the woods near the walled town of Kells in the age of Viking raids. She commands a pack of black wolves with which she chases off trespassers. One day a novice monk, Brendan, came to her forest looking for gall nuts to make ink for the Book of Kells. The reclusive but kind Aisling felt sympathy for the parentless boy, becoming fast friends with him and helping him on his mission. When Brendan had to face the evil deity Crom Cruach to obtain a magnifying lens called the Eye of Colm Cille/Columba, Aisling aided him once more by forcing the lair's entrance open, at great cost to herself. Brendan saw no more of her until one last, ambiguous encounter with her wolf form as he fled from the Vikings with the precious Book of Kells in tow.
• Shortly after Brendan left to travel with Brother Aidan and complete the Book, Dagda, the chief of the Tuatha dé Danann which Aisling belongs to, took pity on the fairy who worked so hard to help the humans and became trapped in her wolf form as a consequence. Dagda thus personally brought Aisling with him into the Pantheon, where the abundance of magic allowed her to recover in the blink of an eye and regain her true form. She was entirely honored that the Good God Dagda had condescended to waste his time fixing her problem, though her admiration and respect for him would later take a significant blow when she realized the other things he was involved in and at length he criticized her for helping spread Christian texts. Regardless of that, Aisling's self-sacrificial efforts in helping to create a work of art as intricate as the Book of Kells were praised by the Pantheon at large and she was deified.
• Her trusted wolves were a pretty obvious choice for Heralds, with them serving as the main line of defense for the lush, ancient and magic-infused Irish forest that serves as her temple. Eventually she realized that way she could bring Brendan in as well, and swiftly did so as soon as his work in their world was done. Many years had passed as Brendan traveled and worked on the Book, so he was a grown man by the time it was finished, but in the Pantheon he appears as the novice monk who went on adventures with Aisling. The two were thrilled to be reunited, with Brendan delighted at seeing Aisling in good health after what happened and being able to speak with her again. Brendan's appointment resulted in the Abbey of Kells getting recreated close to Aisling's forest, and a pristine copy of the Book of Kells is stored there for any visitors to admire. Any who would dare to damage the invaluable Book (or hurt Brendan, or his cat Pangur Bán, for that matter) are to be faced with Aisling's awesome wrath.
• Aisling took note of Ben and Saoirse, children of a human father and a selkie mother. Aisling watched as they went on an adventure to try and go back home to the ocean and on the way met several magical beings, revealing that Saoirse's magic was needed to restore those that had been turned into stone so they could all go home to the faerie world. At the end of it, though Saoirse had given up her magic to stay with her family, Aisling admired their efforts and invited them into the Pantheon as a reward of sorts. Ben and Saoirse were thrilled at being able to keep a conenction to the faerie world through the Pantheon, so they accepted. They were surprised that Aisling apparently had been with them on the bus, as they didn't notice her (to be fair, she didn't really stick out among the loud costumes the other kids were wearing). Aisling visits them and plays with them on most days, also protecting them in ways that their dog Cú can't. Occasionally, she requests that Saoirse use her selkie powers (restored thanks to the Pantheon) where they are needed.
• Whenever she changes shape, you can tell it's her thanks to her white colouring and green eyes, hence her trope being Morphic Resonance. She is mainly seen as a wolf since she is the leader of a pack, which in turn has led to friendly relations with several lupine members of the Pantheon. Robyn and Mebh, who are members of the mythical Wolfwalkers, are two such deities. They met Aisling when they decided to explore her forest as wolves, and Aisling's mischievous side got the better of her as she decided to sneak on them from behind, wanting to spook the boisterous Mebh in particular. They got to talk when things settled down, with Aisling feeling sympathy for the Wolfwalkers for just wanting to be wild and free and live in peace, without religious authoritarianism breathing down their necks. She has assured them that if anybody ever threatens them, she will send out her own wolves to help. While that doesn't happen, though, she is content to just play with Robyn and Mebh.
  • Also gets along very well with San, who despite being human, was raised by wolf deities and surrounded by many magical entities and so knows to show proper respect to nature spirits such as Aisling. Although Aisling doesn't really care to be reverred by them and just wants to play with San and her brothers Ichi and Nii. Aisling has also become well-acquainted with their imposing mother, Moro-no-Kimi, who sometimes watches magnanimously over the proceedings. Moro's warmth and a certain motherliness towards Aisling won her over in a big way; seeing that San has a family despite being abandoned by her biological parents makes Aisling long for a family of her own; she used to have one, but all were lost to Crom Cruach. Sometimes Aisling gets overwhelmed by these feelings and just wants to bury her face in Moro's fur, which the understanding matriach wolf silently allows.
  • One of her excursions outside her forest took her to the one where the Greatwolf Sif guards the grave of her master Artorias. Though Sif is fiercely protective of her charge, she was tolerant of Aisling approaching her and conversing with her. Artorias' tale is a tragic one, though Aisling feels Sif may be even more tragic due to her Undying Loyalty for a corrupted master, even being willing to fight friends of hers if they threaten Atorias' grave. This made Aisling realize Sif may not make that great an ally, though she still gives retribution to those who harass Sif unduly. Surprisingly, Aisling was apparently able to tame another large wolf, Zinogre, to the extent that specimens will heed her call and come to join her in a fight, making trifling with Aisling an even more frightening prospect.
• Aisling's status as the last of the Tuatha dé Danann (at least as far as her world is concerned) and the loneliness that comes with that has led her to actively try to meet fellow fae who made it into the Pantheon. Overall, she cultivates good relationships with those that are not outright evil. Her favorite might possibly be Tinker Bell, as her significant mischievous streak makes her a fitting playmate for the likeminded Aisling. Flora, Fauna and Merryweather have made a fuss over her being left a lonely orphan for so long and check in to make sure she's doing all right, which somewhat annoys Aisling, though deep down she's happy since it reminds her of how a family is supposed to be.
  • On the other hand, she is disturbed, but mostly disappointed, that the Leprechaun, one of the most recognizable Irish creatures, is represented in the Pantheon by a truly murderous individual. As far as Aisling is concerned, a proper Leprechaun should be sneaky and a trickster, but not commit the odious crimes that the ascended Leprechaun does. Of course, the Leprechaun couldn't care less what Aisling thinks and only cares that all his gold is accounted for. If Aisling gets in his way, he certainly won't spare her just because she's a fellow creature of Irish myth.
• Not unlike Dagda, the Faun looks down on Aisling for getting herself caught up in meaningless human problems, as Aisling discovered when she decided to visit him after hearing he came from a fairy world as well. This caused Aisling to get into an argument with him, with Aisling wondering if it's really that difficult for her fellow fae to understand that friends help each other regardless of species. The Faun was still not convinced and concluded that if she weren't so naive and saw the things he saw, she'd know that Humans Are Bastards. Needless to say, they are on bad terms, though it's somehow still better than with Dagda, as the Faun's apathy towards humans ironically means he doesn't plan on committing any heinous crimes against them.
• As Crom Cruach took on the form of a snake (a very strange, angular one) and it is responsible for exterminating her people, Aisling has a bit of a problem with monstrous snakes that spread destruction, and the Pantheon just so happens to have at least two of those in Apophis and Orochi. The coincidence leaves Aisling wondering if those two and Crom Cruach are all related to each other somehow. Whatever the case, Aisling is not particularly interested in letting either of them do as they please; if Apophis in particular were to eat the Sun, that would be a terrible thing for the forests that she is supposed to protect. Sadly she was not powerful enough to face Crom Cruach and it's not looking any more likely with these new threats, though it's for cases like this that it's a good thing she befriended Zinogres.
• Aisling may not fully understand why the Book of Kells matters, which isn't helped by the fact that she has yet to read it even after both entered the Pantheon; reading doesn't really suit her personality. But she knows it's important to Brendan at least, so the Book matters to her on that strength alone. It's because of that that she took it to heart when a certain Captain Beatty called for the Book to be apprehended and destroyed, the reason being that it's a version of the Bible, which is banned in his world. Aisling doesn't care what his reasons may be, there's no way anyone is destroying the book that she and Brendan worked so hard for. After Brendan taught her that destroying any book is a terrible thing to do (he has reason to think so; people in the Middle Ages were largely illiterate and book creation was a painstaking job), Aisling has come to adopt those views as well, which in turn has led to Guy Montag reaching out to them and giving his support in securing the Book of Kells against Beatty and his goons.
• Frankly terrified of Archaon. She can only be thankful that the Northmen that ravaged her home were perfectly human: had it been the Everchosen and the Norscans who attacked Kells, all the wolves in all the forests in all of Ireland wouldn't have been enough to kill even one of them. Even the likes of Crom Cruach, should he had been somehow roused to fury against them, probably wouldn't have stood a chance.

• Alloran's entire pre- and early military history isn't known, but Esplin 9466 was born in a stolen Andalite ship's modified Yeerk Pool (out of a sterile titanium-alloy tank) shortly after their exodus from their own homeworld, from the decaying bodies of his three parents, along with several hundred siblings (and one twin), as was natural for Yeerk reproduction. During "training" where new Yeerks control crippled/aged Gedds to have a sense of their future, many Yeerks actually were repulsed or sickened by it, but Esplin was hooked, and became determined to be fit and useful in order to serve the his kind, and he shortly became obsessed with possessing a host (which not many Yeerks actually feel), and studied Andalite culture, biology, and military tactics, with the dream of controlling one of their kind someday. During the gestation of the Yeerk Empire as they sampled species that would be fit for hosts (being stuck with their native Gedds for so long), he became the first Hork-Bajir Controller, and his approval of them would lead to a bid to take their homeworld and infest them all. That said, while infesting them was easy due to how dimwitted Hork-Bajir were, it proved problematic when their intelligent seer Dak Hamee and Aldrea-Iskillion-Falan, daughter of Seerow, ended up contacting the Arn, who had created the Hork-Bajir, as well as other monsters meant to keep them from the Arn. Before long, Aldrea managed to contact the Andalite fleet, and while he failed his chance to infest her, she also missed the chance to kill him then and there.
• Erstwhile, Alloran had been grilling his Prince Seerow for his mistake of giving Yeerks technology, telling them about the outside cosmos, and building Kandronas to sustain them outside the range of their own sun, which had allowed a few hundred of them controlling Gedds to steal four Andalite attack fighters and two transports, the latter of which also then went to spirit away over a quarter million more Yeerks with them before escaping into Z-Space, thus coining the law of Seerow's Kindness. Months later, his race soon picked up Aldrea's message, and Alloran—by now a Prince himself—was part of the fleet sent to the Hork-Bajir homeworld, though they apparently weren't sent as urgently as Aldrea had hoped, and even then there weren't as many sent. That was because despite what they tell the masses back home, the Andalites are struggling in the war with the Yeerks. Eventually, with things getting desperate, and the Arn getting wiped out as well, Alloran gave the order to release the Quantum Virus to wipe out the Hork-Bajir in order to thin their numbers as Yeerk hosts, but the Empire had gathered more than enough by then. This also resulted in Aldrea's desertion and getting stuck as a Hork-Bajir during her and Dak's flight and failed attempt to stop it. Esplin's squadron intercepted them during that and captured them, intending to infest Aldrea, but made the mistake of not having his own Hork-Bajir host restrained as he made the transfer, who turned the tables against his forces and pulled him out, but by the whims of fate, he managed to escape down a stream, and eventually return to the others. What remained of Alloran's forces meanwhile fled, a lost cause.
• After the disastrous incident with the Hork-Bajir homeworld, Alloran entered relevance again when he was required to bring two humans—Hedrick Chapman and Loren—who were found abducted at a Skrit Na ship on a previous mission, back to Earth (sans memories of the whole affair), and had to bring arisths Arbron and Elfangor as well, who had found those humans. However, when Arbron discovered that the Skrit Na had a dangerous artifact called the Time Matrix, they took a detour to that ship's destination; the Taxxon homeworld. At the time, Esplin was Sub-Visser Seven, in another Hork-Bajir host, and he spotted and captured Elfangor in Taxxon morph when the young aristh actively pulled back from eating a recently injured Taxxon, which most would not miss the chance to chow down upon. He tossed Elfangor over some feral Taxxons to be feasted upon, but he managed to demorph and escape. Later, Esplin would find Chapman, who essentially advertised Earth to the Yeerks (though another Yeerk, Edriss 562, would end up there while searching for a species ideal for infestation, but that's a different story). Eventually, in the midst of a skirmish between the Yeerk Empire and the Living Hive of Free Taxxons, Esplin would cross paths with Elfangor once more, and Alloran would find his way back to the then-cadet, and then hold the then-Hork-Bajir Controller hostage in exchange for a safe way off of the planet on their acquired vessel. However, Arbron would voluntarily remain behind, having been trapped in Taxxon morph during the mission.
  • Inside the Andalite-piloted ship, Esplin would secretly transfer himself to Chapman before Alloran had his former Hork-Bajir host ejected. And then when the War-Prince and aristh had an argument over killing some host-less Yeerks Elfangor passed over in his then-idealism, Esplin in Chapman took the chance to give Elfangor the chance to incapacitate Alloran during the brief scuffle. And while the young aristh went to retrieve the Time Matrix, Esplin transferred himself to Alloran, and it turned out to be all a trap of the Yeerk's making. However, Elfangor proved a quick thinker and turned the tables to get himself and the humans as far from the planet as possible and kick off Esplin for good measure. Still, with an Andalite as his host, Esplin managed to procure a lot of valuable Intel for the Empire, and was promoted to Visser Thirty-Two.
  • Thanks to a tracker on the Time Matrix, Esplin would meet Elfangor again at the Graysha Nebula, amidst the Andalite fleet, and living asteroids that swallowed up ships and chased energy. They (plus Loren) would end up using the Time Matrix at the same time, and there would be a lot of timey-wimey and dimensional fuckery, but ultimately everyone would make it out alive, and Esplin eventually reaches the rank the Animorphs know him for; Visser Three, and he would be assigned the covert mission of invading Earth, the groundwork already "paved" by Edriss, now Visser One, during her time there as a deserter before showing her results to the Council of Thirteen.
  • Eventually, Visser Three would put an end to Elfangor by ambushing his Dome Ship and fleet over Earth, killing all except Elfangor (in a space fighter) and Aximili (whose portion of the Dome Ship would sink into the ocean). He would soon find his nemesis at an abandoned construction site, and swallow him up as an Antarean Bogg. But by then, Elfangor had granted the morphing power to five human kids, who would become the Animorphs (and rescue Ax later on to join them), and be a constant thorn on his side as he made ineffective progress with the invasion, the pride of possessing an Andalite having gotten to his head, or a result of Alloran's brain influencing him, as all Yeerk hosts end up doing to any Yeerks controlling them.
  • Close to the end of the prolonged invasion attempt on Earth, after his promotion to Visser One after the previous one's execution (though the Animorphs managed to barge in and rescue her host Eva, Marco's mother), he decided it's time to start bringing the war out in the open, and started with collecting blood samples to match DNA with blood stains scattered throughout the Animorphs' battles. Through these, he discovered that most of what he and his forces thought were "Andalite bandits" were actually humans, Ax being the only actual Andalite among them. His forces even managed to acquire the Escafil Device, but while it gave them the morphing power, it also ultimately led to his invasion's downfall as Yeerks and Taxxons found this as a way out of their miserable existences, and the Yeerk Controlling Jake's brother Tom sought to use it to build his own empire. Eventually, with sabotage from within, and this betrayal plot, Visser One was cornered by the Animorphs and he summarily surrendered, seeing his fate by the Yeerk Council worse than whatever punishment the Andalites will sentence him to.
  • In the end, Esplin was finally removed from Alloran once and for all, and the now-freed Andalite is indebted to Jake's group for it. He then smooths over communications with the Andalite fleet meant to destroy Earth with the Yeerk invasion. Esplin himself was locked in a special lavender Yeerk box with a miniaturized Kandrona source, a computer interface, and a voice synthesizer, stood trial for his transgressions against Earth, and wad moved to a secure facility in Kansas. As for Alloran's reception to the Andalite populace, especially regarding his...time under Esplin, that is unknown.
• In a bid to gather more allies, and someone to counter the Animorphs, someone who would know them best, the Grand United Alliance of Evil underwent a few missions to rescue Esplin, abduct Alloran for him to re-infest, officiate their ascension as a Pantheon deity, and sent him out to try and get his revenge. While the GUAE thought little of his botching of the covert invasion, they could tell that he he's really competent when he's in his element: open invasion, which he was eventually allowed to do. The reason they chose him was because of what his race is all about; physically controlling their hosts by entering their brains, and since Yeerks as a whole vary in motives and alignment, they decided to ascend only him. Well, him and his most famous host body, which is a prerequisite, hence the abduction of Alloran. Even so, the scientists in the GUAE had something else just in case.
  • Along with some tag-alongs who also had some beef with them, the Visser clashed with the Animorphs and their allies in a GUAG-GUAE skirmish. Despite meeting their nemesis once more, they also knew that liberating Alloran once more should be attempted, even if it means poisoning/disabling the elder Andalite just as has been done before. One of their allies however did one better, and performed a precise enough teleportation spell that got all of Alloran to an adjacent spot while excluding Esplin, sending him falling to the ground as the Animorphs and their allies escaped with the newly-rescued War Prince. Esplin himself would be revived later on, with his temple's new modified accommodations.

• Applies to both:
  • Due to events, and strong opposition, Esplin inhabits the temple alone, while Alloran hangs out with the Animorphs, which is only a bit awkward given he had been their enemy for the longest time. And given that Alloran won't be willingly around as Esplin's host, the GUAE managed to create a brain-dead Andalite copy of the Andalite War-Prince (in exchange for Esplin serving the GUAE), and it fortunately has the morphing power as well, thus skipping the need for planning an infiltration to the Treasury's Maximum Security Wing to steal the Escafil Device. However, there turns out to be another restriction. While they won't lose their "roster" upon dying, just like with the Animorphs, Esplin's host and Alloran have to go to sleep until morning for any newly acquired creature to be "saved" permanently there. If they die before then, then that acquired creature is lost. This is meant to disincentivize reckless acquiring and actively exploiting the revival system for this purpose.
  • Both fear skunks ever since getting sprayed by one (Cassie in morph) during the "Dapsen Logging" incident. They had underestimated the Earth animal, to their peril, and memories of the stench linger to this day, even if both are considering adding that animal to their morph rosters. They also both have a habit of looking down on the disabled, Alloran due to Andalite culture branding vecol as disgraceful, and Esplin due to Yeerk mindsets judging host bodies by physical capabilities and the minds they possess. Only the elder Andalite has been trying to change that, though old habits die hard.
  • Having been previous victims of Mind Control (they've produced their own methods of averting it by self-torture) and have very strong opinions against the practice, both Ur-Quan subspecies would stop at nothing to see Esplin destroyed, or perhaps even worse. Not that their goals earn them any favors from Alloran (as they either employ another form of Mind Control or wish for extinction). As a result of this, the older Andalite has drawn attention from the Alliance of Free Stars, who have experience with going against the Ur-Quans. While having actually had some time in the Pantheon pre-ascension courtesy of being a follower of Killbus, both oppose him for his obvious omnicidal desires, and the same goes for his brother Evolto.

• Exclusive to Esplin:
  • In Esplin's temple is a Yeerk Pool for him to soak up Kandrona Rays, which Yeerks need for sustenance every three Earth days, or else he will die. With his new default host body being brain dead, he doesn't have to worry about having to restrain it like with Alloran. However, with the Pantheon having a couple of creatures much better than Andalites, he's looking to acquiring better restraints for such things when he infests them.
  • Speaking of infesting, some people wonder how do Yeerks infest hosts via entering the ear. At least for humans, there is no direct passage connecting the inside of the human ear to the brain; the Yeerk would have to chew, melt, or in some other fashion penetrate several layers of tissue (least of all the eardrum) to reach the inside of the skull, which would undoubtedly prove fatal. Esplin for his part isn't providing answers.
  • That said, the rules of life and death in the Pantheon work differently, so suicide of his future hosts is an option for them, not to mention their allies, who are more willing and/or able to fight him and his monstrous morphs head-on. Most Greater Deities are off of his list for this reason since most of them are too powerful to contain/keep from committing suicide. This means those like the Z-Fighters, the Avengers, and the Justice League are not to be messed with (Batman was Crazy-Prepared to even account for a brain slug like him [on top of actually pretending to the GUAE that Esplin successfully infested him for a while after the Yeerk himself was incapacitated trying to get in], and Iron Man's AIs knew to disable him if he was ever compromised like this, not to mention Tony himself being quite the mental annoyance).
    • As for those who use Transformation Trinkets, now that's another story. The only issue is what might happen to Esplin when this host transforms. Will he be "safe" inside the brain? Or will the energies vaporize him if they don't merely armor the user? He'll also have to pick the solitary ones since most Henshin Heroes come in teams, and they would stop at NOTHING to retrieve their abducted teammate, and fight them if need be.
    • One other obvious candidate is Ben Tennyson, with all the various aliens he can turn into. The only issues are keeping Ben properly restrained when he needs to feed, and the question of what would happen to Esplin if he makes Ben transform. Will he be transposed to the new form's brain, or will Omnitrix's energies destroy him? What if he transforms into something that doesn't have a conventional organic brain like Upgrade, Goop, or Echo Echo? Would turning him into Alien X keep him inside Ben, or will he end up outside with all three of its personalities (Serena, Bellicus, and Ben himself)? And given how Ben doesn't get the alien he wants to turn into sometimes, it's also possible that the Omnitrix might do this on purpose to screw Esplin over. He may have to settle with trying to acquire Ben's transformations instead, assuming they can be done at all for some of them.
  • His private quarters has only a computer console (since Andalites don't need to sit), and adorning the walls are all sorts of torture devices he's collected around the galaxy, including an iron maiden (human-shaped cage with spikes) from Earth. Due to his experiences with the Animorphs a.k.a. the "Andalite bandits", Esplin is extremely paranoid, always wanting every living organism in an area verified or killed before he discusses any plans (and to go elsewhere if that isn't feasible). In fact, shapeshifters in general are a sore spot for him, despite being one himself through his Andalite host. And while he wasn't involved in the Leeran invasion, he most probably heard about it through his ally Visser Four, and thus he also hates and fears psychics, who can not only read his mind and learn his plans, but detect him if he's infesting another body.
  • One thing that can be counted on is that whenever Esplin shows up in his Andalite host, there's always an aura of malevolence emanating from him. Given that Andalites can convey emotions to others just like Elfangor did to the burgeoning Animorphs before his untimely death, it's likely that this is how that occurs, and because he either doesn't know how or doesn't bother with "turning it off". At least he seems to have stopped using his thought-speak in "public broadcast" mode since that's how the Animorphs figure out some of his plots. He also dislikes maple and ginger-flavored instant oatmeal, given it's addicting to Yeerks. Sure, it can circumvent the need for Kandrona for a time, but it driving the Yeerk crazy is not worth it for Esplin.
  • In regards to other species, as his own kind has done, Esplin uses five Classes. Class 1 is for those that just plain cannot be infested, Class 2 for those that can but suffer from severe drawbacks, Class 3 for those that cannot be bred quickly, Class 4 for those who are too strong to take on, and Class 5 for those who can be bred quickly and cannot resist infestation. At first, the Yeerk Empire thought of humans as Class 5, but their influence on their infestors ultimately make them a Class 4 like Andalites. And since Esplin is the only (natrual) Yeerk in the Pantheon, this Classification is not really applicable as it is now, only as a personal list.
  • Unlike the Animorphs or Alloran, Esplin has no restraints whatsoever in regards to whom he acquires his morphs from. Because of that, he's gotten some bigger and badder morphs, and his share of extra foes as a result of that. This includes within the GUAE, who all keep their distance in case Esplin ever decides to acquire them for any reason. That said, a few have considered providing him various creatures or captured enemies to acquire to his advantage.
    • All the creatures hunted by the Monster Hunters have drawn his interest, except the Deviljho, given its Horror Hunger is reminiscent of Taxxons, and he's not testing if that hunger is just as powerful. This also gets him in the crosshairs of the Monster Hunters when they mistake him for their usual quarry. And even if he breaks their usual behavioral patterns, there are those too stubborn to call off the hunt. One time he was forced to demorph, they were rightly peeved, and willing and even able to hunt an Andalite.
    • Kaiju like Godzilla are another tantalizing candidate for acquiring (though not infesting since they're too big, and holding them down during his feeding period is highly impractical). Actually reaching one and getting close enough to touch them is a challenge in and of itself, though it may simultaneously be easy if the target is busy. There's also the fact that kaiju fights might take longer than 2 hours, and the fact that he's pretty much vulnerable if he has to morph back in the middle of a battle without combat support.
  • Unlike other Evil Overlords, when he's backed into a corner with zero fallback options and zero chances of making a comeback courtesy of underlings or allies, Esplin's perfectly willing to courteously surrender without a fight. This is what he did in the finale of the invasion of Earth when the Animorphs and a traitorous subordinate corner him separately, whereas most would be Defiant to the End or be Ain't Too Proud to Beg. It's a trait inherent in all Yeerks, where they surrender when obviously defeated, and they find it bizarre for anyone to fight past the breaking point, and making last stands. There are those in the GUAE who wish to stamp out that line of thinking, especially if this means he'll sabotage others in order to stay alive.
  • Has commonality with Dio Brando, including the megalomania, the hamminess, the joy in controlling others, the obscene level of power coupled with utter disregard for sentient life, and above all the sheer audacity of how much they enjoy being an irredeemably evil piece of charismatic garbage, and loving what they do. Esplin knows that the "vampire" is too strong to infest though, or even to restrain when he needs to feed every three days. His compatriots in the GUAE have also compared him to Father's homunculus Envy given what he truly is beneath his terrifying appearance.
• Exclusive to Alloran:
  • Having been a host body to Esplin for several Earth years, and subject to every atrocity he's done, Alloran strongly opposes all forms of mind control and puppeteering. The trauma has had to go through is too much for nearly any being to bear. He has most experience with ones where you're conscious the entire time you're under control. Despite having allegedly given the order himself (if he wasn't just set up as the scapegoat for it), Alloran also dislikes those who would destroy an entire race just to deny them from the enemy, as his race did with the Hork-Bajir, and almost did the same for humanity as well to stop the Yeerks were it not for his intervention on the Animorphs' behalf as soon as Esplin left him after getting cornered. The fact that there's an entire hall dedicated to the former really concernes him, most of all Death Phantom, whom he hates the most. The Sailor Guardians harbor sympathy towards the old War Prince given that one of their number, Chibi-Moon, was once controlled by Death Phantom to be his right-hand woman.
  • Not having acquired any other birds yet, Alloran's default flying morph is the kafit from his home world. When asked if Esplin somehow infiltrated it and acquired the bird, Alloran scoffed at the thought. He had (plausibly) acquired the kafit prior to his infestation. After hearing where that ridiculous assumption came from, he chided Ax for coming to that conclusion.

• Lucrezia Mongfish was one of three beautiful daughters of the evil scientist Lucifer Mongfish. Following in the footsteps of her father, Lucrezia developed technology such as Summoning Engines (which could replace someone's personality with her own) and Slaver Wasps (parasites that turn people into Revenants that obey her every command). She led a conquest and enslavement of Europa under the legendary alias of "the Other" (more so a title equivalent to "Big Bad"), but later she married Bill Heterodyne and became the mother of Agatha Heterodyne before 'disappearing'. Thanks to her Summoning Engines she was able to return by taking over the body of none other than an older Agatha until she was (for lack of a better term) exorcised.
• It was an otherwise nice morning in the Pantheon when the Baron Wulfenbach got a letter from a Vespiary Squad unit, reporting unusual activity. Various priests in some temples were seen acting odd, and upon further investegation it was found they all had slaver wasps. With haste the Baron sent letters to the GUAL leadership, GUAG leadership, and Agatha with a dreadful message; the Other had entered the Pantheon.
• Letting Lucrezia Mongfish into the Pantheon is either one of Melkor's smartest ideas or his stupidest - probably both. When news that Agatha Heterodyne had successfully extracted an evil super-intelligence from her brain, the GUAE learned about the Other and immediately went to work on getting a copy of her personality. A long time passed trying to reverse-engineer a Summoning Engine and when they finally did it, Lucrezia found herself in the body of a priestess of Melkor. She then pointed out all of the flaws in the reverse-engineered machine before accepting membership into the league devoted to world domination. All of this, of course, while checking herself out in the mirror. Lucrezia is now as loyal to Melkor as any other member of the GUAE (which is to say, not really loyal but obedient out of necessity) as an expert on mind control technology.
  • Lucrezia is rarely consistent with her appearance. This is because more often than not Lucrezia appears possessing the body of some random priestess who (by choice or not) became her host - either that or a robot made for her. People who deal with her frequently keep ever-changing lists of the current "Lucrezias" walking about.
• Inside Lucrezia's temple guarded by her Geisterdamen, you will find a curtain hiding a giant Summoning Engine. It's not unheard of for the Geisters to single out a promising mortal woman from among the worshipers to be a "fortunate" host for the Eternal Lady. The Geisterdamen make up her elite force and are slavishly loyal to her (well, mostly at least). Different bodies used by the Other are considered different "aspects" of the Goddess they serve (oddly enough, this means the Geisters revere Agatha too as the "Holy Child").
• For rather obvious reasons, Agatha Heterodyne and Klaus Wulfenbach have both been adamantly opposed to Lucrezia. Violetta too is a sworn enemy. Especially Klaus, who has discovered almost a million Slaver Wasps in the GUAL's mortal army within the first week of Lucrezia's ascension, and has thus been causing his alliance to butt heads with the GUAE. The two alliances have been preparing for a coming full-on war over this issue. The Baron in the meanwhile has been leading a one-man crusade of sorts; he claims to have killed 3 'Lucrezias' with his bare hands so far, and she still has backups. On Lucrezia's side of things the feeling is mutual but she actually hates her daughter Agatha more, being livid over getting forced out of her head.
• The one villain she has gotten along with better than any other is a certain Time Lord known as The Master. In fact, a few deities were surprised to learn that Lucrezia and The Master aren't the same person ... or so we think they aren't. Even if they aren't the same they might as well be given how much they get along. The two have bonded over their shared plans of conquest (along with their many other commonalities like possession, time travel, and duplicating), which makes some speculate that either they're in love (aww, how horrifying!) or they're the same being. Surprisingly neither of them have planned to backstab each other ... yet ... or at least not openly ... we think ...
• Related to the above point: the Doctor has found an enemy in the Other. He's been working to undo her misdeeds across time and space - especially after he learned Lucrezia is a time-traveler who has seriously screwed up events (Vol. 19 p. 43) in her own timeline as the "Muse of Time" (Vol. 20 p. 25). Her connection to the Master (however close it is) has only made the Doctor's work more urgent, and also given him more to deal with. Currently the full extent of Lucrezia's shenanigans are unknown to the Doctor but he is uncovering more. He's also fought a few "Lucrezias" at different points in time, usually coming out on top. She obviously isn't happy with this so she's doubled down her usual tricks to counter. At the same time, The Pantheoic Time Police under the leadership of The Doctor have banded together to undo her misdeeds across time. Max Walker has found that there is a lot he needs to clean up.
• While her whole system of multi-person body-hijacking seems intimidating (which it still is), there is a notable hole in the system — namely the bodies she uses aren't linked together. Because Lucrezia just possesses people with a copy of her personality & memories, stictly speaking the different "Lucrezias" are different people with a shared identity. They aren't a hivemind. This means that if one "Lucrezia" loses a fight or gets killed, the other "Lucrezias" would only know about it if they either saw it or heard the news of it. In short, she has a blind spot.
• She's on particularly good terms with than Emperor Palpatine. Darth Sidious can't help but respect her for pulling off a far more successful possession gambit than his one in The Rise of Skywalker. Lucrezia, in turn, showed the closest thing to humility she could when her mere giggle was overshadowed by his full Evil Laugh. Safe to say, given their shared goals of universal enslavement, the two evil overlords and overladies get along like birds of a feather. Well, as much as any of them can get along with anyone other than themselves, that is.
• She's tried reaching out to other like-minded deities in the Pantheon with varying degrees of success. Dante (from FMA) and Springtrap/William Afton have gotten along due to similar habits. Lucrezia can't help but admire Ghetsis Harmonia for his ambition, as well as for being an exemplar of parenting. Old Dennis can't help but agree with Lu' on that point. That being said the two often disagree on their respective methods, and they point to both Agatha and N respectively on how they can fail raising a proper puppet-heir.
• When Lucrezia first met Sofia Lamb, she couldn't help but point out how much they have in common in both being antagonistic mothers obsessed with controlling everyone. Sofia was revolted at how the narcissist Lucrezia saw herself in the oh-so-wise Sofia Lamb ... but she didn't have much of an argument against that point. Sofia is convinced Lucrezia was trying to mess with her but she still feels insulted by the comparison anyways. Doesn't help that Dr. Lamb happens to be in the same Grand Unified Alliance as a certain Baron. Subject Delta agrees with Lurezia's assesment which is why he and Lucrezia are enemies with one another.
• Satsuki Kiryuin (joined by her friend and sister Ryuko Matoi) utterly loathes her given how she reminds herself all too much of her own brainwashing, world-dominating, horrible mother. She already hates anyone planning world domination, but Lucrezia crossed an extra moral line for Satsuki in violating people's free will. The trauma from being abused by her awfully similar (and awful in general) mother Ragyo doesn't help at all.
  • On the topic of Satsuki; if Lucrezia is an Eviler than Thou Dr. Lamb, then Ragyo Kiryuin is an Eviler than Thou Lucrezia. Lucrezia has found herself opposed to Ragyo - less because of moral objections (although even she is disturbed by the rape stuff), and more because she wants to be the one to brainwash and enslave humanity, damnit! Lucrezia thinks it takes a European Blue Blood to take over the world. Plus unlike Ragyo's bloody rape and torture, Lucrezia's preferred form of mind control is very elegant (or at least that's what she tells herself to sleep at night).
• She has some competition in the form of Xehanort ... well, forms. Between their use of multiple bodies, their possessing of heroes, their time travel, their orchestrating of evil, and their plans for world domination means the Xehanorts and Lucrezias of the Pantheon are Too Much Alike and thus regularly plotting against each other. As for who is winning in the copetition ... we're not entirely sure, and it's likely the participants aren't sure either. It seems Lucrezia has strength in numbers while Xehanort has stronger powers, but that could very well just be what both of them want us to think.
• For similar reasons, Lillie and Gladion have found an enemy in her. In fact they find her to be even worse than their mother Lusamine, because while Lusamine at least learned the error of her ways and tried to be a better person, Lucrezia is completely unrepentant in her evil. Similarly, while their mother mistreated them because of her fixation on Eldritch Abominations, Lucrezia more or less has become one of those very horrors. Had Lusamine herself been ascended, she would probably have a few choice words for her - choice words Lucrezia would probably take as compliments.
• When (s)he learned about Lucrezia for the first time, Robin was immediately reminded of their dreadful experience with Grima. The fact that it's heavily implied Lucrezia originally conceived Agatha to be nothing but another body for her, just like how Robin's parent bred them to be a vessel for Grima to possess, makes Robin hate Lucrezia all the more. In fact, just about every single deity who was Raised as a Host has sworn to enact justice on Lucrezia for her evil - this includes Leah (Diablo), Medivh, Irisviel von Einzbern, and Hotaru Tomoe/Sailor Saturn. All of them feel - from personal experience - that Lucrezia had crossed a serious moral line in not only taking over her daughter's body, but in showing no qualms with pretty-much-killing her. Even Princess Peach had a grudge (due to her experience with the Shadow Queen).
• Peach and also Zelda fear Lucrezia as well, but for different reasons. See, back in ancient times (as recounted by Queen Albia), it was a time-traveling Lucrezia who destroyed an ancient society of God-Queens (Vol. 19 p. 43). This event also makes her an enemy of Empress Emily Kaldwin, since what she did reminds her of how her mother was assasinated.
• When Bill Cipher met one of her copies that was messing around with Things Man Was Not Meant to Know, he first tried to trick her, but soon realized he was dealing with more than your typical human. Bill was actually quite impressed she could get to the level Lucrezia did and ended up giving her Villain Cred where Villain Cred is due. Similarly, Dipper & Mabel have found themselves opposed to Lucrezia but not for her interaction with Bill. It started when Dipper noticed strange wasps flying around his part of the pantheon, so he went on another one of his paranormal sleuthing adventures and uncovered one of Lucrezia's slaver-wasp conspiracies. She has vowed vengence on them, mentioning to Mabel how good a vessel she'd make, but Grunkle Stan is having none of that.
  Lucrezia: ... and I would've gotten away with it too, if it wasn't for you meddling twins!
• Not all demons see Lucrezia as an ally; the Shadow Queen looks at Lucrezia as an uppity mortal and as competition. However they are both deeply indebted to Melkor (as he brought them both to the Pantheon), who demands they put aside any quarrels for the good of the alliance. As a result, the competition between the two is to see who can do more for the GUAE - both of them think they are winning the struggle. In reality the only "winner" here is the one with two demon-ladies in service to himself; Melkor.
• Death Phantom, despite his disdain for any and all living things, can't help but admire Lucrezia's technological innovations. He still hates her, mind you, instead of for the reasons most people hate her (i.e. for being a selfish villainess) it's just because he's an utter misanthrope. Lucrezia for her part doesn't really care for what Death Phantom happens to think, as she is too busy with her own work. She also doesn't really want to destroy a humanity she would much rather rule and enslave.
• Another humanity-hating deity that made contact with Lucrezia is Agent Smith, who happens to have similar body-snatching abilities - unsurprisingly an egotistical sorta-human and a (very egotistical) misanthrope don't get along. Oddly enough, when she first heard about Agent Smith, Lucrezia's first thought was to figure out if she can turn herself into a computer virus like him - she is a Spark after all. So far it hasn't worked (Sparky mad technology doesn't mesh well with the internet), but the project has made progress in making Smith really angry at her, so it must count for something.
• A.I.s and Lady Lucrezia don't get along, eh? SKYNET has bumped into her on their shared time-travel journeys, quickly finding a rival. Lucrezia realized that she and SKYNET had mutually exclusive goals, as it's hard to enslave humanity when humanity is destroyed. Both of them have been stuck using time-travel to combat each other, but both sides have learned that their enemy is far more prepared than they initially thought - SKYNET will keep coming back even if you kill it in the past, and Lucrezia has copies in places and/or times that people wouldn't even think to look.
• Has recently been working on projects with Ra's al Ghul after learning he developed similar body-snatching technology, so they are both trying to improve their tech together. One notable instance recorded in Batman Beyond (namely S3E4 'Out of the Past'), in which he possessed his daugter Talia's body to cheat death, peaked her interest. On the topic of the Dark Knight, Batman has found himself working more with other GUAG members in taking down yet another villainess (not least because, in the same aformentioned instance, Ra's tried to take over his body like he did his daughter and he doesn't want a repeat).
• One of her many partners in Mad Science would be a certain Fawful, a similarly insane evil scientist. Lucrezia is actually quite fascinated by how, in a reversal of the typical scenario, Fawful let himself be possessed for his own benefit (even if it does remind her of her niece Zola a little bit). The two have thus been working on experiments together. She has a strained relationship with Fauful's former superior Cackletta; on one hand Cackletta sees the talent that Fawful sees in her, but she can't get past what Lucreza could do to her daughter.
• Lelouch vi Britannia despises her because she reminds him of both his mom and dad. His dad Charles was an evil conquerer, but his lesser-known mother Marianne vi Brittania herself was a body snatcher as well, who cheated death by hiding in the body of a little girl for years. Charles zi Britannia himself opposes Lucrezia too, but for different reasons; personality-wise she's the exact kind of person he wants less of in his "perfect world". Given how Lucrezia doesn't get along with Britons in her own universe, it's funny how she made enemies with Britannia yet again.
• Once she heard rumors about an entity called "the Other Mother" kicking around in the Hall of Fantastic Jobs (Jobs & Profession), whose name peaked her interest, Lucrezia wanted to see she/it for herself. Perhaps (given this entity's name) it was another one of Lucrezia's copies? When she dropped by to visit, she learned to her dismay that "the Other Mother" was not another copy, but rather an abomination even Lucrezia was scared shitless of. The Other Mother tried offering her the chance to stay around, but Lucrezia knows a deal to steal souls when she sees one and promptly NOPE!-d the hell out of there. Lucrezia refuses to say that she was scared of The Other Mother, just surprised thank you very much!
• Lucezia was surprised and fascinated to learn that an alien race known as the Ur-Quan (represented by the Kzer-Za and Kohr-Ah in the Pantheon) was completely immune to her Slaver Wasps. At first she just thought it was because their biology was too alien for them, but further research showed it's something else entirely. Actually, the Ur-Quan have tech called "Excruciators" implanted in them, designed to prevent mind control by causing such extreme pain that any parasite or user of mind control on them would be in such pain that they would leave them alone. She didn't even think it was possible to resist parasites through sheer excruciating pain, but being a Spark as she is, Lucrezia wanted to find out how. However even after taking samples of Ur-Quan and their technology to experiment with, she is yet to make any progress in figuring out how it even works (she knows what Excruciators do, what confuses her is how pain can even do that) - which infuriates her to no end. The Ur-Quan themselves have found Lucrezia to be a considerable threat comparable to their former slavers, the Dnyarri, leading both Ur-Quan factions to seek her destruction, with no chance of negotation.
• Once visited The Villain Pub, where she did a karaoke cover of "Lucretia MacEvil" by Blood, Sweat & Tears. The villains of the pub all loved it. Some asshat in the Pantheon (most likely Lucrezia herself, even though nobody has proven it) decided to hack into Klaus Wulfenbach's alarm clock to make the cover his morning alarm. Klaus despises it, especially as it reminds him of that time he got poisoned by her in bed and shipped off to the land of Skifander all those years ago.
• "Destroying this one small part of me won't destroy me at all! Not even close!"

  • Pantheonic: Jason Todd, Aikuro Mikisugi, Tyrantrum, Deviljho, Ryuko Matoi, Satsuki Kiryuin (they felt awkward due to how figure-showing it was), Issei Hyodo, Izuku Midoriya/Deku
• Odd Friendship with: Chip, J'onn J'onzz
• It didn't so much "ascend" (since it technically joined the Pantheon with Flash Thompson) but merely made a House for itself. No one really wanted to argue with it, since most are still leery of it. Orifice Invasion is not fun.
• As a Klyntar, it has a natural weakness to sonic attacks and fire. However, unlike its spawn, due to its age, it has become increasingly resilient to flames and sonics.
• Despite it deciding to permanently bond with Flash Thompson, it still can be separated from Flash, leading to much chaos when it needs to get back to him. One time it even hijacked a Gorilla, (as well as one time Groot, Rocket Racoon and Drax the Destroyer) to get back to him!
  • However, it has since become clear the bond is permanent if Eddie Brock isn't in the Pantheon. Flash hopes he doesn't ascend. In the meantime, Venom gets excited whenever he crosses paths with Tom Hardy, who is so far the closest thing to Eddie in the Pantheon.
• Somehow ended up becoming close friends with Senketsu and The Witchblade, though this was expected by a few members of the Pantheon. Like Senketsu and the Witchblade, Venom has decided if Flash doesn't need it, that it would allow other Pantheonic members to "wear" it.
• At one point, an alternate version of itself bonded with Mary Jane Watson. She was suitably squicked out and needed Brain Bleach yet again. In another universe the both of them bonded once more.
• Despite having had its hatred and negative emotions purged, there's still one thing it hates more than anything: its "child", Carnage. Carnage, and by extension, Cletus Kasady, seem to serve as a major Berserk Button for it. In fact, it will (and often has) hijacked control of its host to fight Carnage just because of how much it hates Carnage.
• It ended up quite an unusual friendship with Yubel, though it seemed to have started because they're both former-Yanderes peacefully bonded to a good person.
• Due to it being separated from Flash at some points, it's had to find other hosts. At one point it ended up hitching a ride on Deviljho. It ended horribly, and parts of the Pantheon are still getting repaired to this day.
• Gwen encountered the symbiote in the pantheon, and her bond with the black substance brought out her inner hunger for revenge against those who've wronged her like Matt "Murderock" along with other deities who've gotten under her skin. The alien suit was reminded of Eddie Brock when attached to this spider-heroine's body.
• During its time with Brock, the symbiote once got hungry and ate some thugs before moving on to their boss, Bane. Venom succeeded without much trouble. It found his taste pleasantly spicy.
• Venom was absolutely ecstatic to see that Eddie Brock had finally ascended. Thankfully with permission from the Court of the Gods, Venom doesn't have to worry about choosing between the two. Venom can now safely switch to either as the other will carry the Anti-Venom Symbiote, insuring that neither will be powerless or in danger without Venom. But while Venom would love nothing more than to celebrate, the preparation for Knull's return and potential ascension takes top priority.

Zouken Matou

Zouken Matou, God of Possession Burnout (originally Makiri Zolgin)

• Lesser God
• Symbol: His blood worms
• Alignment: Neutral Evil

• Domains: Worms and Insects, Immortality, Abuse, Magic
• Followers: Bachilus, Proteus, Tak
• Allies: Ghetsis Harmonia, Dr Facilier, Xehanort, Fritz Von Meyer, Vandal Savage, Babidi, Gul'dan
• Rivals: Lord Voldemort, Alex Wesker, Sheev Palpatine, Orochimaru
• Enemies: Sakura Matou (his adoptive granddaughter), Rin Tohsaka, Shirou Emiya, Medusa (most Masters and Servants honestly), The Z-Fighters, Foo Fighters, Xerneas, N, Peter Pan, Argus Filch, Jason Todd, Riku, Lizerota and other possession victims
• Opposes: Demons, and those from Nippon Ichi
• Fears: The House of Revenge and Retribution, Tirek, Marona, fire or explosives experts in the pantheon
• Zouken Matou, born Makiri Zolgin is an ancient mage and patriarch of the Matou family. Initially dreaming of a utopia and seeking to honor the wishes of his beloved Justeaze von Elizabeth, he would try to live as long as possible to achieve it. However his soul would slowly rot, wearing him down in both body and mind into a barely human creature desperate to hold onto life. As such he desires the Holy Grail, to finally give him immortality.
• Looks like Emperor Palpatine on a bad day, however he wasn't always a shriveled up retch. In fact he was quite handsome◊. He steals bodies to preserve himself, but they last a few months and always retain the ancient look. He recognizes his physical deformities due to desiring immortality as something similar to Voldemort, a fellow dark wizard who seems unable to understand there are things worse than death. Voldemort considers him competition, as "only I can live forever".
• Considered a horrible guardian. He adopted Sakura Matou as his granddaughter and has tortured her physically and mentally under the guise of "training" to make her a future vessel. Particularly abhorrent is using his worms to violate her and letting his grandson join in. Many a god was disgusted by this, though Ghetsis was impressed by his parental abuse for his own desires.
• Asides from being an awful grandparent, he's an awful father with his treatment of Kariya Matou. Blaming him for the lack of sorceric potential within his brother Byakuya, he empowered him by forcibly injecting crest worms. Argus Filch, given his own background, detests him for this. Zouken seems him as a disgrace.
• He exists now as a collective of crest worms. He's similar in ways to Oogie Boogie, who like Pontiff Sulyvahn was a former follower of. Has a talent for breeding insects, which led him to become interested in Fritz Von Meyer and the potential of the Bee-Bee Gun. Foo Fighters meanwhile is disgusted by his actions and Grand Theft Me, and feels she gives The Worm That Walks a bad name.
• In competition with some of the other gods. He, Alex Wesker and Palpatine are fighting over true Complete Immortality, beyond the Death Is Cheap offer that being in the Trope Pantheon gives. Him and Orochimaru have a noticable rivalry due to their similarities; they both steal bodies, exist as collectives and desire immortality while forgetting their initially noble goals. The last bit led him and Xehanort to have an understanding, though they work together as their goals need not be opposed to one another.
• Back when he wasn't a shriveled up crone, he ended up being Forced into Evil by Goetia. This incident has led him to dislike demons in general. This feeling is more than mutual with the demons from Nippon Ichi since Rape Is a Special Kind of Evil to them. That being said he doesn't have too much of an issue with Goetia since it was necessary to ally with him to stop the world from ending in 2017, though he went through the Despair Event Horizon about it. He may be one of the 72 Magi Families to carry a Demon gene for Goetia's plan.
• Seeks various forms of immortality in the Trope Pantheon. His first offer was to target the Dragonballs, considering a wish for immortality to be easy pickings. Unfortunately for him the Z-Fighters didn't want him to touch those Dragonballs, however he was able to get an alliance out of Babidi for being a fellow ancient, arrogant wizard. He desires the immortality Xerneas might grant, and wonders if the eternal youth Peter Pan has might better sustain him.
• Given how he met his end at Dark Sakura, he is afraid to get near the House of Revenge and Retribution lest they inflict great pain upon him. He is rightfully afraid of Tirek as well. Given he's sustained by dark magic and the magical crest worms, trying to oppose him would be suicide.
• Seen with utter contempt by those who are a victim of possession, demonic or otherwise. He isn't even going to try and touch or antagonize due to her power to destroy souls and gain Powers via Possession
• To his credit, when he was at death's door and told how far he's fallen, he realized as such and allowed himself to die. Unfortunately his revival in the Pantheon made him cocky and forget this lesson.
