  • Enemies:
  • Opposes: Izanami (from Persona 4, mind you).
  • He is the one who will halt time's march and return the world to its original form. This is not very pleasing news for Dio Brando, since that was supposed to be his job.
  • In the words of Terumi, which he insists to become the one truth, the whole Pantheon is a lie, thus, there's one truth that he'd like to show: DESPAIR. He's not gonna ask Despair of the Endless to bring it forth; he wants his own brand of despair. Needless to say, many gods completely disagree. But some gods who are aware of the Fourth Wall see that he does have a point about everything being a lie. At least in some small sense.
  • Terumi, alongside with Johan Liebert, was also involved in Yuno Gasai's ascension to the Pantheon into the House of Emotion, and, to a lesser extent, Love and Affection, by respectively trolling and manipulating her into murdering the would-be holder Kaede Fuyou (the anime edition) without Yukiteru Amano knowing about it.
  • Has lately been seen hanging around with the Incubators, hoping to revive the old days before Madoka Kaname rose, during which Magical Girls could be engulfed in despair. He didn't quite take the fact that Usagi Tsukino was the Predecessor into account.
    • Terumi himself seems to have a weird thing going on for one Incubator called Kyubey. On one hand, he's extremely delighted that Kyubey gets to generate a lot of hate with movements like "Everybody Hates Kyubey", etc. However, he's a bit miffed that the hatred was not directed to himself.
  • The GUAG has been plotting to overthrow him, especially for those who consider him nothing more than a whiny, pathetic little coward behind his bravado and "luxury of Plot Armor". However, he may or may not be plotting to usurp Melkor in a covert fashion alongside Relius.
    • The full extent of this turns out to be that he's trying to usurp not just Melkor... but the whole Pantheon, everything for himself, so he can watch all those Gods squirm, struggle, and kill each other for his own amusement. He has struck the first deal by having his 'allies' Troll Weil, so he could claim his devil aspiration and malice for himself. Apparently, after Weil, Ali al-Saachez and his throne of For the Evulz is going to be Terumi's next target, followed by Geese Howard and Rugal Bernstein, also Shao Kahn, and probably his 'former roommate' Gilgamesh for his throne of self-aggrandization.
    • Unbeknownst to him, Bernkastel plots to usurp his Trolling portfolio.
    • Hades has already claimed Terumi is just keeping the crown warm for him.
      • But once it assured that Hazama would be the one to keep the title of Trolling God, Terumi had a good laugh at Hades.
  • Was once utterly humiliated by Deadpool, who called him small-time in terms of utilizing Memes and the Fourth Wall. He only managed to retain his Trolling God position by getting the ASW higher-ups to not fulfill Deadpool's wish of him not appearing in the next BlazBlue game.
  • Is one of the evilest deities in the Pantheon aside from Made of Evil deities like Nyarlathotep and Melkor. He's tied with Dr. Weil, barely past Johan Liebert and Relius Clover, and only surpassed by Griffith, Zamasu and Majin Buu in the depravity department. This also makes his fiction one of the darkest fictions ever.
  • With the ascension of his former follower Handsome Jack as the God of Petty Villainy, rumors have begun to spread that Terumi, Izaya, and Jack have allied themselves as the "Troll Triumvirate". The rumor, of course, was started by them as their first act of tripled trolliness. Now revamped to Trollkaiger, with Bernkastel as the fourth member.
    • His designation is Trollkai Green; he's the leader of the group. Got demoted as Bernkastel's second-in-command.
  • When he learned about the ascension of Junko Enoshima & Monokuma, Terumi laughed so hard he cried as a form to show how much he's proud of them, his finest apprentices on the arts of spreading despair; he promises to one-up them by making something worse than "The Worst, Most Despair-Inducing Incident in the History of Mankind".
  • Everything was eventually found to be against Terumi's favor when it turned out that he was killed by Hakumen. In a sense that he's utterly trashed, but he was saved in the nick of time by Nyarlathotep, who proceeds to taunt the hell out of him for how much of a chump he turns out to be and decided to keep him in the Pantheon so he will become a laughing stock of many Gods here. Oh and Bernkastel grins evilly here, this means she has all she needs to demote Terumi as the leader of the Trollkaiger and take over for herself. Terumi did not take it well, and looks forward to rubbing the "Fear Toxin Incident" in Nyarlathotep's face, it being a failure of epic proportions on Nyarly's part. That is, after the Crawling Chaos regenerates himself after being nuked by an utterly enraged Madoka.
    • Terumi is planning his revenge against Hakumen and to restore his reputation.
    • However, what most Gods may not know that before Terumi got beat up by Hakumen, he and his Hazama half got separated into two entities. Where Hazama is keeping a low profile for the time being, mainly only visiting the House of Knowledge to do research on other gods in secret, he is looking in the shadows to see what will happen next. He has been researching Izanami so that he and Terumi know how to deal with their universe's Izanami if they return.
  • If there is one thing that you shouldn't try to counteract Terumi's actions is that of feeding him food from a Lethal Chef. He actually adores stuff like that, saying the more disgust others would be by it, the more delicious it is.
  • Got pissed off when he learned that Kokonoe managed to have Lambda-11 ascended after he was certain he killed her, and then got then more pissed off when he learned that she was returning to the battle lines.
  • Some say Raynare is a creation of the mind of Terumi made to cause extreme psychological damage to Issei Hyodo. Raynare and Terumi haven't commented on that regard, but Terumi is utterly delighted to see that Raynare has screwed Issei up in romance and made him unable to confess to his haremettes. Rumor has it that Terumi himself has planned Raynare's ascension all along just to let her screw with Issei once more...
  • It is heavily rumored that it was Terumi, bitter about his constant failures and ridicule around the Pantheon, that allowed The Flood to enter the Pantheon. While it is unknown if it is true (for Terumi could have just been lying his ass off), the Gravemind has a very special interest in him and seeks to teach him the finer points of bringing true despair to others through its particular brand of torture. For just like Terumi, the Gravemind also desires to bring unlimited despair to the Pantheon, and it too seeks revenge for sins long past. Needless to say, this has made Terumi very happy.
  • He was NOT happy to see his former follower Vector ascend and betray him. Terumi is planning to make him regret doing that.
  • Even though he died at the hands of Hakumen, he still is in the next chapter of his home-series. No one knows how he came back, or what are his plans, but many deities surely aren't pleased whatsoever. Then it was revealed he never died because of Hakumen, but instead managed to No-Sell the effects of Time Killer, though not without consequences. Needless to say, he's been laughing his ass off at the looks on everyone's faces, including Nyarlathotep and Bernkastel, the latter of whom he claimed better be prepared to hand the crown of trolling back to him.
    • In fact, while many have seen this as him getting his well-deserved karmic payback and moved on... Terumi DOES NOT forget such humiliations, and swore that the whole Pantheon will pay for his humiliations, he's going to make them all his bitch.
    • For his first strike, he first manipulated the Lunari sympathizer Diana to get him to aid his assault on Amaterasu with chances that the Moon throne will no longer belong to Amaterasu, and they succeeded, though the throne didn't get to Diana and Terumi ended up failing to kill Amaterasu as she ended up gaining a humanoid form in exchange. If you wish to know why he staged it in the first place? He says it's For the Evulz, but in truth he remembered a Noodle Incident where the dog!Amaterasu tackled and humiliated him by striking him and ending with her peeing on his face as "payback for his general bastardry towards humanity". No way he's going to let a mutt like her get away humiliating his radiant self like that.
    • As his true self Susano'o, he hates any deity that has anything to do with Amaterasu's name, especially the goddess herself. While none of them are the same type of Amaterasu from his homeworld he intends to destroy them all none the less.
      • He actually did attempt to fight her in this form one other time, this time, more in secret lest other deities begin to pray for her safety. However, he still had two other people he had to worry about. One was the Prince of All Cosmos, who served as a Spanner in the Works, telling his father, the second person Terumi had to worry about, and having them arrive and save her by exhausting Susano'o by having the king fight him. Susano'o held his own against the king, but the Prince eventually somehow managed to roll him up into a Katamari that was turned into a small sun to help heal Amaterasu. Ever since then, the King has become a massive wall between him his revenge on Amaterasu, and after reviving in his Terumi form, he has sworn revenge against the King of All Cosmos. His response? Toss one of Amaterasu's bagged "accidents" at him, having it explode all over his face. He had to steal the only shower from the House Of Family for two hours to clean up, leaving a mess on the way in to also get his daily despair desire in. And nobody's gonna let him forget it.
  • A lot might say that he has crossed the Moral Event Horizon ever since birth and his other atrocities were merely Kick the Dog. However, if there's another level of Moral Event Horizon that existed, he definitely crossed it with his overenthusiastic antics to break Nagisa Furukawa, starting from emulating the voice of Tomoya Okazaki to make Nagisa feel horrible, making Black Humor over her death, and hammering home that her family looked so miserable in her departure that they died miserably, all just to see Nagisa keel over in pain because of her illness. This would've killed her as well if it wasn't for her friends sending her to the nearby doctor. Why is this especially bad? Because unlike his other victims like Noel, Tsubaki and Litchi, Terumi did this knowing full well that Nagisa is a non-combatant. The sight of him torturing those who couldn't even fight back was considered extremely vile even for Pantheon standards, especially knowing the nature of Nagisa's origin. His reaction? He's so happy he's Laughing Mad that he broke a new record of vileness and wants to see more exciting misery above that.
  • In light of the above, something else needs to be explained regarding Terumi. He is literally fueled by The Power of Hate. By stoking everyone's hatred towards him, he increases his power and sustains his existence. This is why he so often seen in many profiles across the Pantheon engaging in some act of malicious trolling. While usually, his acts are more of a great annoyance that often gets rebuffed or paid back violently, it still builds up the sustenance of ire in his direction. And then he crosses the line and does things like the above that are capable of truly causing harm.
  • His quest for misery had led him Commander Peepers who was alongside Hater at the time. Paying no mind to the skeleton, he decided to mess around with the eyeball alien to the point that his eye was burning up from being spat in and irritated. He was laughing his ass off about how much pain he was causing Peepers and how much hate he was feeling to further his powers, only for Peepers to make a remark that Hater ALSO gained powers from hatred, and he was NOT amused by Terumi trolling Peepers. He woke up in the House of Life And Death after being brutally assaulted by Hater and all the hate he was feeling. He was NOT amused upon learning that he actually ascended as a god because of this incident, and the fact that Hater's power from hate is strong enough to bring him back from a Disney Death.
    • One such instance was having his Trollkaiger group troll him into submission. Needless to say, it didn't go well. Because of this incident, Lord Hater is around the top of his threat list as well as Trollkaiger's "Do not enrage" list.
  • He and Hazama have been completely separated as of Central Fiction. They work together, yet Hazama seems to have his own plans.
  • He also regained his true power after getting revenge on Hakumen, killing him and taking back the Susano'o Unit (which, as it turns out, originally belonged to him), attaining the power level of an Overdeity and once again becoming his true self: Takehaya-Susanoo-no-Mikoto, god of storms and darkness, Satanic Archetype of the BlazBlue Universe and destroyer of worlds.
  • As Susano'o, Terumi's influence is present, but he has lost his trademark insanity. While his arrogance remains, Susano'o is a terrifying monster who will destroy everything in sight, seeing that it is his divine right to do so. Unfortunately for him, Ragna still managed to blow him away, but the force remains within him. This also draws ire from the actual Susanoo in the House of Pride and Egotism for daring to sully his name by flanderizing his past. Even so, Terumi's essences remain within the Pantheon, but while he did not lose any ranks, he was severely depowered. That being said, he can easily remedy that by reassuming his Susano'o guise to give himself a massive power boost, not to mention that the power he lost is gradually returning, so it won’t be much of an issue for him. He's also claimed that As Long as There Is Evil (or people who think he's such a cool villain worth worshipping), the Pantheon will never get rid of him.
  • Severely disappointed at his former subordinate, Monaca Towa, for jumping ship and joining the Itazura Griefers, much to the chagrin of Junko and the rest of Trollkaiger. He has vowed to "tear her a new asshole" when he catches her, but so far he's been busy with other things and doesn't have the time, nor the will, to hunt her down.
    • He also showed severe disapproval in Junko for her simply brainwashing Ultimate Despair into loving despair, alongside their teacher, and having her sister do all of the tough work for her, calling her lazy and how it severely degraded her as a threat, enough to the point he decided to refuse her into Trollkaiger, walking and laughing all the way.
      • As of now, the two did team up one more time to try and ascend an enemy of the King himself from his dimension, and found Roboking as a result. Seeing how his Robo-Katamari once caused an apocalyptic scenario within the King's world, the two of them tricked Roboking into ascending and starting a war with the King again. Unfortunately, this stopped shortly after the Prince caught wind of them and managed to talk him down. Even worse, the King now just knows who ascended his most hated enemy from his dimension. Cue Junko and Terumi trying to pin the blame on the other and preparing for the worst.
  • While incredibly strong as Susano'o, he has been beaten on some occasions. For example, one day while fighting the LOL Rangers as Susano'o, he managed to severely wound several of its members, but despite that, they managed to lure him into a trap created by Usami. Using magic that she learned from Amane Nishiki, she quickly trapped him into a circle and turned him into a strange but harmless black version of the creature known as "Pakumen". While he got better, the mad god is pissed at the little rabbit creature for humiliating him and viciously mauls any copies of her when he sees them. Of course, the LOL Rangers are proud of themselves for managing to troll someone as powerful and evil as Susano'o, but they're also more wary of him because of how risky it was and because Susano'o came really close to killing them several times in the process.
  • One of Terumi's more surprising hobbies is playing the guitar and being really good at it. Sometimes he even heads over to the house of music to have a duet with I-No.
  • Even he's surprised by how well he gets along with Zamasu now. They initially got off on the wrong foot, with Zamasu taking offense to him invoking the name of Susano'o, a god, whenever he saw fit, and Terumi getting pissed off by his long-winded monologues the former spewed out. But when push came to shove and Terumi needed someone to help reclaim his original body and remembering his own overbearing contempt for mortals and hatred for his "big sister" and superior god, he saw an opportunity to work with the fallen Kai. Needless to say, Zamasu's killing of his masters, and nearly every other god who would stand in the way of his freedom and the eradication of all mortals positively delighted Terumi, as did learning that the god took great pleasure in rubbing the death of Goku's family by Goku's body in Goku's face. Now, he can almost appreciate Zamasu's rantings: it's basically just a more eloquent version of Terumi's own ego-stroking. It's also helped by the revelation that Terumi isn't actually a mortal taking a god's name as many deities (including Zamasu himself) originally thought, but actually is the god Susano'o, meaning he was never even mortal, to begin with. The new partnership naturally alarms nearly everyone else in the Pantheon.
  • Has a very… specific hatred towards Neo in particular, as least as Susano'o. While he says that her illusions mock him presence, the fact that she is able to get under his skin so badly without saying a word is quite something.
  • His misdeeds towards the members of Gensokyo are definitely ones that have not been lost on their minds. One case was when he, along with Dio & Alucard, raided the Scarlet Devil Mansion and held Remilia Scarlet hostage in order to keep the at-the-time GUAE member Sakuya Izayoi, Remilia's servant, in line. However, an organized effort with the rest of the SDM's previous inhabitants and Seija Kijin would allow Sakuya to rescue her mistress & get her ascended. For a while since, he wouldn't really aggravate the land of fantasy, but recent developments have put him back in their headlights.
    • The tumultuous relationship Terumi has with Seija in particular has seen far more downs than ups. At first, they seemed to be friendly trolling buddies with each other, and Terumi has even proposed the idea of enlisting Seija to the Trollkaiger, a proposal that Seija considered at first but would eventually turn down. As both settled into their respective roles of their tomfoolery groups (with Seija heading the Itazura Griefers & Terumi vying to maintain Trollkaiger leadership), the amanojaku's animosity would slowly bubble towards the surface as she learned more about Terumi. This all came to a head in the temple of one Kosuzu Motoori, where the duo would cross paths once more, Seija being there just to annoy Kosuzu while Terumi investigated the bibliophile's demon books. What followed was a very volatile argument between the duo on their respective morals and ideologies, a dispute that turned into a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown from Terumi's end as he, in a fit of anger, decided to and succeded at murdering Seija right then and there.
      Terumi: You know? I thought you had it in you, bitch. I thought you can stoop low to our level and cause true chaos and malice. Instead, you're just a meddling and annoying coward. You're a fraud, a faux, a fake to what I live off of- malice for the fuck of it. And now, Seija, you'll learn exactly why I am the God of Assaulting the Helpless; PREPARE YOUR SORRY CONTRARIAN ASS, BECAUSE I'M ABOUT TO BREAK IT!
    • What Kosuzu (and Twilight Sparkle would return to later that day was a destroyed Suzunaan, a massacred collection, and a dead Seija, who was later revived in the House of Health and Diseases. While the physical damage was repaired, the emotional, psychological, and social damage that Terumi had dealt was incomprehensible and resulted in all of Gensokyo up in arms about the event. Everyone from there had made Terumi the topper of their shitlists, the Sages of Gensokyo have officially branded Terumi as a main threat to Gensokyo's safety, and therefore have authorized the use of Impossible Spell Cards and even the fullest extent of their powers against him, and Seija herself, when she was revived, is more than livid about what had been done to her. Ironic, considering that Seija herself was previously put in this position, albeit with just the "Impossible Spell Cards" implication.

  • Interested in: "Hero Killer" Stain
  • Throughout a period of his life, Ryu has struggled with the evil powers of the Satsui no Hadou that emerged ever since he confronted Sagat in the first World Warrior tournament. However, after managing to tap into the Power of Nothingness, Ryu managed to purge the evil energy from his body permanently. However, the energy inside had enough power to manifest itself into the real world and take a life of its own, resulting in the creation of Kage, the personification of the Satsui no Hadou expunged from Ryu's body. The shadowy figure's mission is to convince his former self that without him he is nothing, even going as far as to challenge Ryu's greatest rivals but ultimately, Kage perished after Ryu admitted that he isn't afraid of him anymore and sees him as a separate being, causing Kage to cease to exist. At least, until the Shadow One emerged from the pantheon's most shadowy corner, still dead set on becoming one with his former self, whatever the cost.
  • Ryu wasn't happy to learn of Kage's ascension but he accepts his existence as a powerful being separate from him, possibly an equal in power, something that Kage refuses to believe and still insists on re-emerging with Ryu. Besides him, Kage has unfinished business with both Akuma and Sagat, both of whom he confronted in the past and even won against, but Kage believes that they were holding back and plans to kill them for good to prove his superiority.
  • Whenever he managed to take over Ryu's body in the past he was better known as Evil Ryu. Even though nowadays he goes by another name, many do make the mistake of still referring to him as such, increasing his belief that Ryu is nothing without him. One such deity that did confuse him for Ryu was Asura, who he remembers having fought after Ryu succumbed to the Satsui no Hadou and actually keeping up with the destroyer deity. However, unlike with Akuma, Asura has no respect for Kage's destructive ways and evil nature, seeing him as no different from the gods he slaughtered, and challenged the shadow one to a fight. Even when he was getting serious, Kage was able to keep up with Asura and before the confrontation could escalate, they were both stopped by Pantheon authorities and some members of GUAG who feared they would destroy a huge chunk of the Temple they were in. Before disappearing, Kage promised he would destroy Asura the next time they meet.
    • It seems that Kage decided to don the appearance of Asura◊ to taunt him into a rematch. It proved to be almost effective as Asura was getting angry and ready to throw down but he was stopped by his daughter who imploted him to not waste his time with a hollow entity like Kage.
  • Kage is a walking reminder to those people that have struggled with a Superpowered Evil Side or an alternate evil version of themselves. His thirst for power and destruction has also made it hard for him to have a lasting alliance with someone but he has found kinship with other deities like Majin Buu, Nightmare and Dark Link, shadowy entities formed for the evil of the original person (Or in the case of Buu, the purest form of evil that expunged its good side).
  • At first it would be seem that Kage and Altria Alter would get along given that both have a similar origin but that didn't turn out to be the case. Given the latters code of honor and not being a destructive as the demon, she usually prefers to fight him off than actually ally with him, and even when they share a goal they barely cooperate. Similarly, the other Saber Alter Jeanne d'Arc isn't very fond of Kage even if her goals of destroying the worlds would say otherwise, she feels her reasons aren't as petty as the demonic fighter and would also prefer to kick his ass that actually work with him.
  • Not fully content with just challenging Ryu's rivals from the same universe, he also has gone after other powerful fighters outside of their home universe, starting with the Mishima clan, particularly the Devil Gene wielders. Both Heihachi and Kazuya recognized Kage after having encountered Akuma and promptly took up the challenge but their respective fights ended inconclusively. Meanwhile, Kazumi initially tried to avoid confronting Kage in case her Devil Gene got out of control but once he personally went to challenge her she had no choice but unleash it. Thankfully her old comrade Akuma stepped in and interrupted their fight just to settle things with Kage once and for all, but the demon chose to flee since he was outnumbered.
  • When many heard of his obssession with becoming one with Ryu, many compared him to Nu-13 and her desire to be one with Ragna the Bloodedge, which could cause The End of the World as We Know It. Oddly enough, the demon and the murakumo unit do get along fine provided neither gets in the way of the other and have sparred a few times, although Nu has warned him to stay away from Ragna or else she would have to kill him.
  • When he heard of the existance of a being like him who instead of being an expelled evil entity was a good side that was separated from their original self, Kage grew curious and went to investigate the source of this claim. Turns out that said deity was Lana, the good side of Cia and who she even shared a temple with, Kage considered the witch a weakling unworthy of her time, even as far as to praise the original half for discarding the weaker parts of her in order to become strong. However, even Cia opposed Kage as she was ashamed of her actions that were driven by jealousy and evil and even joined forces with Lana after Kage threatened to kill her for refusing to accept to succumb to her evil intents.
  • Rarely does Kage regard deities with anything that isn't scorn or a desire to kill. However, he took interest on the infamous "Hero Killer" Stain after learning about the incident he was involved. He felt the sheer power of his Killing Intent residing inside him and sought him out to test his power. After the bout concluded, Kage was impressed by Stain's sheer determination and murderous intent but he didn't return the sentiment, as anyone who is evil or murders without reason is as bad or even worse than the phony heroes he hunts and has nothing but contempt for the demon.
  • Initially he was dubbed a Shadow by the Investigation Team, who contacted Ryu so that they could deal with him like they have done with previous Shadows. However, Ryu insisted on rejecting Kage, as being an embodiment of the Satsui no Hado rather than any standard vice or insecurity of Ryu's made him operate in a manner quite opposite from most Shadows. Accepting Kage once more would restart the whole ordeal with resisting the urges of Satsui no Hadou trying to overtake him instead of creating a new Persona, whereas considering Kage his own being ultimately transferred his existence from his home universe to the realm of the Pantheon. Ultimately they agreed and decided to honor Ryu's request, realizing it's a lot safer to keep him on his own rather than having him being part of Ryu. Naturally, he hates them, both for thinking they could handle him as a typical matter in the first place, AND for listening to Ryu and dropping the idea.
  • "Be afraid. Now you gaze upon your death!"

  • The Overlord Inves were once a civilized race of human alien beings from the planet Femushinmu until their world was overtaken by the Helheim Forest to the point of their race's extiction due to numerous conflicts on their survival to grasp the Forbidden Fruit, but Redyue stands out among them for being a vile, selfish, and a manipulative monster who is willing to do evil deeds just to satisfy her own benefit ranging from the time when she kills her own family upon her transformation into an Overlord, being the one who Kick started the invasion on Earth, up to her treachery towards the leader of the Overlord Roshuo just to grasp the Forbidden Fruit into her own hands.
  • After her death at the hands of Kouta Kazuraba, she had found herself in the pantheon as she sees the denizens and the place as her new toy for her to play just like how she expressed these things back on Earth which she made a point to start her plans for her own benefit.
  • In fact, most of the ascended citizens of Zawame were not pleased of her presence in the pantheon since she gave alot of trouble with them during the Helheim invasion. She also set her sights on both Kouta and Mai as she wanted to kill them so she can snatch the Forbidden Fruit from them. However, both Kouta and Kaito doesn't see her as a problem anymore considering they already possessed the same, if not, more powerful Overlord powers, that could pulverized her instantly.
    • Lock Dealer Sid also gained an ire towards her considering the fact she lured him into her trap that leads to his demise back in the mortal world as Sid tries to be cautious of her tricks the next time they would encounter each other again.
    • She doesn't take Mitsuzane Kureshima's redemption very well upon hearing his actions during Kogane's 2nd rampage and during Megahex's invasion in Earth. However, she became thrilled upon hearing his actions during Project Alternate Gentaro, Redyue swaers that she will finish off what he had started.
  • She quickly joins the terrorist organization SHOCKER after she became intrigued with their aspirations for conquering the whole pantheon while the organization sees her as another assets for their cause. From there on, she started to provide her own set of Inves to the group in order to strengthen their numbers.
    • Due to her being an employed member, she is in the same league with Ryoma Sengoku. However, the two doesn't like to cooperate with each other since are fighting each other for their goals of grasping the Forbidden Fruit for their own benefit.
  • She has an unhealthy relations with fellow toku villains like Takeshi Asakura and Sora/Gremlin as the three were seemed to have something in common. Things would even get worse whenever the three would spread havoc towards their enemies for their own amusement.
  • She has somewhat gained an interests with the Trollkaigers because she was amused of their atrocities towards their respective foes. As such, she made an alliance with Yuuki Terumi and Bernkastel as they had a lot of things in common, particularly, their acts of committing heinous actions out of boredom. As such, she was enlisted as Terumi's newest subordinate after he was amused of her actions during the Helheim Invasion.
  • Has gained an interest with fellow Hope Crushers like Junko Enoshima and Monokuma after she became thrilled with their actions during the tragedy where they induced despair to everyone that leads to chaos and destruction in their home world. They also started to forged their alliance after they noticed their shared hatred towards Kouta Kazuraba and his group of Hope Bringers as they're looking a way to dismantle the group by any means.
    • This reason has caught in the eyes of Johan Liebert after he was impressed with her hope crushing tendencies during her stint in the mortal world. Because of this, he invites her into his own group so they can inflict more despair in the pantheon.
  • Has forged an alliance with the Decepticon Starscream after the two noticed that they shared things in common especially with their schemes of overthrowing their superiors in order to gain more power for themselves.
  • She gained an interest towards Gregor Clegane and Ali Al-Saachez after she became intrigued with their thirst for battle which she made a remark on both of them being similar to her old comrade Demushu. Rumors that she would make plans for them as her new associates as part of her schemes in order to further her own agendas.
  • It should noted that she is mistaken for being a man due to her deep-sounding voice whenever she speaks. Due to this, she ended up being enemies with Seto Kaiba, who had a rather similar voice to her own. Rumors that she is planning to take over the Kaiba Corp. to her own ends, which Kaiba had made a point to stop her efforts.
  • Has currently setting her sight towards Akechi Mitsuhide after noticing that he has two personalities within him as Redyue plans to corrupt Mitsuhide so that his evil self would be his dominant personality. Due to this, Misuhide's daughter Gracia has started to hate her guts after she became aware of her plans towards her father as she made a point to stop her to prevent her father's total corruption.
  • The fact that she takes pride of killing her entire family has drew an ire on Yuno Gasai, who was outraged by her actions as Redyue taunts her for being no different from her, Yuno cited that her actions are far worse than her since she, to be precise, her 1st world counterpart, accidentally murders her parents because of the abused that she inflicted from them. On the other hand, Yukiteru has gotten the attention on the turmoil between Yuno and Redyue as he and Yuno had made a point to stop Redyue at all cost.
  • Her actions have brought an ire on the Princess Pretty Cures because of her ability to spread Helheim vines and her act of causing despair to her victims reminding them of, if not, worse than how Dyspear inflicted on them back then. The Cures has deemed her a threat should not be messed with as they made a point to stop her actions any further.
  • Due to her Mind Rape abilities, she became an enemy towards Asuka Langley Soryu who tries to stay away from her by any means after Redyue attempts to inflict her abilities on her.
  • She was being hated by both Ryoga and Rio Kamishiro due to the fact that her treachery towards her own race for her own gain reminding them of how their former enemy Vector did the same thing to them. In a twist of irony, Vector doens't like her guts too as her actions would remind him of how he used to be before he redeems himself in the end as he became disgusted with her after she cross the line completely regarding on her actions.

    The Sorceress (Spyro the Dragon) 
The Sorceress, Goddess of Harming Children
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sorceress_reignited2.jpg
  • Intermediate Goddess
  • Symbol: Her Staff and Crown
  • Theme Song: Sorceress's Lair (Reignited Remix)
  • Alignment: Neutral Evil
  • Portfolio: Adipose Rex, Bad Boss, Ax-Crazy, Big Bad of Year of the Dragon, Evil Is Petty, Vain Sorceress, Perishes in an Acid Pool, Evil Mentor to Bianca, Mad Ruler of the Forgotten Realms, Needs baby dragons' wings to power her immortality, Knight of Cerebus, Reptiles Are Abhorrent, Sorcerous Overlord, VERY Vile Villain, Saccharine Show
  • Domains: Magic, Kingdom, Immortality, Evil, Stealing
  • Allies: Gnasty Gnorc, Ripto, Dr. Neo Cortex, Miraak, Gwyn, Lord Voldemort, The Evil Queen, Zarok, Mother Gothel, Cruella de Vil
  • Enemies:
  • Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: Malefor, Ornstein
  • Opposed by: The House of Family and Relatives
  • Ruler of the Forgotten Realms (NOT those ones), the Sorceress is a powerful sorcerer that banished the dragons after they grew tired of her vanity and evil ways. The reality was that she actually tried to steal the wings of the young dragons in order to live forever and she deviced a plan to steal all the dragon eggs by tasking her then-apprentice Bianca and her Rhynoc sevants to fetch them for her. Her plans were ultimately foiled by Spyro, Hunter and Bianca herself after she learned of the Sorceress' true intention, falling in an ultimate showdown against Spyro where she died for good. Or so they thought after she resurfaced in the Pantheon.
  • Her title was given after she intended to commit mass infanticide of the Dragons from her universe from her own selfish goals. Naturally, she is not seen with kind eyes by the Draconic deities who think she is easily one of the worst deities to be ever step foot on the pantheon for the sole reason of killing infant dragons.
  • Once the news of her ascension came, the deities from her universe weren't particularly happy. Spyro was ready to torch some Sorceress' butt, Bianca was worried that the Sorceress would want revenge for betraying her and Hunter started screaming once he found out. The Sorceress could care less for most of them but she has a serious grudge against both Spyro and Bianca.
    • And then she ended up joining both Ripto and Gnasty Gnorc to talk about the "Spyro Problem" and she gladly joined in order to destroy that measly dragon for good. The first idea was to get into contact with Malefor, a very powerful dragon that was Spyro's biggest nemesis in another reality but the fact that he is a dragon and cares little for the trio has made it hard to even consider talking to him. Although Malefor is willing to cooperate if it means getting rid of the purple dragon.
  • Struck up an alliance with Gwyn after he saw how she took care of the dragons from her realm and that Gwyn's disdain for dragon could easily allow her to get ahold of more dragon hatchlings. Considering how she mistreats her own minions, she is not really all that well-regarded by many of Gwyn's subordinates, surprisingly having a tense relationship with Dragonslayer Ornstein even if he also despises dragons as much as her. Another thing that happened was that the Nameless King, a personal foe of Gwyn, decided to gun after the Sorceress ever since she decided to work alongside him.
  • She commands an army of Rhinocs who are said to be one of the more crueler enemies Spyro has fought, even if they can be quite incompetent at times. There were similar creatures, first one she tried to subdue was Rhydon but the Pokemon refuses to work towards the Sorceress even if being harassed on a daily basis by her minions.
  • She decided to enter the GUAE Malum Magia in hopes of allying herself with other powerful sorcerers of her kind. Most notably, she took interest in Voldemort's horocruxes that could help her live even without the need of Dragon Eggs and also grew interested on Zarok's spells, not much on the undead spellcasting but wanting to learn he he could extend his lifespan for so long. Given she is a Vain Sorceress she also gets along with the Evil Queen who resembles her in many regards. And while not being a wizard on her own right, Mother Gothel wanted to learn the secret of using dragon hatchlings in order to attain her own form of immortality, even if she doesn't find the Sorceress all that appealing in the first place.
  • She gained another of Spyro's friends as an enemy but this one was a strange marsupial who she never even met. Crash learned that she began stealing dragon eggs from Spyro and knew that Sorceress was not to be messed with. This in turn brough Crash's Arch-Enemy and creator Dr. Neo Cortex, in contact with the Sorceress who already worked with Ripto in attempting to destroy both the bandicoot and the dragon, which ended being yet another unsuccessful attempt.
  • There was also that time where she was suddenly attacked by a strange bear and a rude bird who thought she was related to another witch. Banjo-Kazooie after hearing of the Sorceress thought to take matter into their own hands and get rid of her the way they dispatched Gruntilda. This is not the first time the Sorceress suffered a crushing defeat and plans to get back at those two.
  • Often compared to Cruella de Vil and with good reason. She finds the latter to be a bit of a useless snob but she tolerates her nonetheless. Cruella wonder if she could make something beatiful out of dragon hatchlings' wings other than maintaining her good looks and the Sorceress started to grow frustrated for such pointless debacles.
  • Wanting to capture more dragon eggs in a more efficient way, the Sorceress found another deity as hated by the dragon deities as she is in the form of Miraak. His ability "Bend Will" allows him to control dragon and that would allow the Sorceress to swiftly retrieve more dragon eggs for her schemes. Of course, the fact that both are insufferably arrogant have made things difficult to work but they are willingly to work together if they can get rid of a few annoying dragons. Of course that brought the attention of the Dovakhiin, who decided to dissolve this alliance in order to avoid another widescale dragon conflict that Miraak caused back when he ascended.
  • The fact that she steals eggs was not well received by several deities. Two in particular, Billy Hatcher and Horton, find her disgusting for daring to do such a thing.
  • James was already afraid of Rhinos ever since his parents were killed by two of them and learning that the Sorceress commands an army of them certainly freaked him out. The fact that personality wise he is very similar to her evil aunts has put poor James on edge for a while but he snapped out of the fear once he learned that he had the backing of Spyro and decided to oppose the evil Sorceress.

  • The Pantheon was going about its usual day until an evil cackle and thunder struck in the Pantheon. From the smoke appeared the Wicked Witch of the West who wants to cause trouble in the Pantheon. When she finds herself to be outnumbered, she retreats before warning her enemies: "I'll get you my pretties, and all of you loved too!" and laughs before disappearing.
  • She once mistaken one of the versions of Brightwing as one of her flying monkey minions, only to find her eating one.
  • She has one weakness: water, which causes her to melt. She is trying to nullify her weakness as she found out that the Pantheon holds many adepts of water and sea creatures and could easily defeat her.
  • Many dog lovers and deified dogs were against her when she tells Dorothy that she'll get her along with her dog too.
  • She is deemed an enemy by every good witches in the Pantheon. The Wicked Witch considered them the "Good Witches" of the Pantheon and she is looking for other evil witches as the "Wicked Witch" of the Pantheon as the anti-thesis of the witches.
  • She took great notice to Elphaba, who claims to be the Wicked Witch of the West. It is hypothetical that she would be the Bad Future Version of her. She wants to make her "wicked" because she believes that it is destiny for her to fulfill her role as the Wicked Witch of the West and to be evil.
  • She is irritated by how many people are dressing up like her because she codified the concept of classic witches.
  • One of her miniature self has fought both the Batman and Gandalf.
  • The Critic once said how men were oblivious to sexual advances with women, with the Wicked Witch as the example. She tried to harass a guard, the Critic himself, and even Mark. Ironically, Mark was the one to notice and say this was sexual harassment and leaves, much to the confusion of the Witch.
  • She sometimes mistaken some red heels as the ruby slippers that were worn by her sister, the Wicked Witch of the East. She tried to take them from girls like Rei Hino and Jessica Rabbit. When warded away, she vow to retrieve them as only she knows how the slippers work, despite looking at the wrong thing.
  • She hates thing that are dropped down on people, considering that the Wicked Witch of the East was killed by Dorothy's falling house. It doesn't matter what is being dropped, just dropping them is what would anger her.
  • She remembers the time when she was defeated by Tom & Jerry, who apparently went to the Land of Oz.
  • There was once a nerd that dreamed of going to Oz and defeating the Witch. Though the dream has Optimus Prime in place of the Tinman.

Demigods

    Akio Ohtori 
Akio Ohtori, Unholy Herald of Domestic Abuse (Dios, End of the World)
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ohtori.jpg
  • Demigod
  • Symbol: A rose crest ring
  • Theme Music: Akio Car
  • Alignment: Neutral Evil
  • Portfolio: Manipulative Bastard, Faux Affably Evil, Really Gets Around, Broken Ace, Man of Wealth and Taste, Walking Spoiler, Exceptionally Vile
  • Domains: Manipulation, Seduction, Abuse
  • Allies: Embryo, Gideon Graves, Gregory Anton
  • Rivals: Most other casanovas
  • Enemies: Utena Tenjou, Issei Hyodo, Princess Precures, Sakura Matou, Scott Pilgrim, good-aligned princes
  • Opposed by: James Bond, Belarus, Glenn Quagmire
  • Odd Friendship with: Dougen
  • As the chairman of Ohtori Academy, Akio Ohtori seems like the kind of guy who has a lot going for him: a cool muscle car, a home in a planetarium, and a track record of being able to seduce a lot of people at separate intervals rather easily. In reality, he was once Prince Dios, a man who put the needs of others above his own. This mindset put a strain on him to say the least and after meeting a woman named Anthy, things became much worse. Years later, as Anthy's brother, he has treated her as horribly as possible (up to and including sexual assaulting her regularly) to the point where Anthy is practically unable to do anything to oppose him. Akio has manipulated many of the students in Ohtori Academy to do battle in the hopes of finding someone of true nobility and love and use their sword to regain his powers as Prince Dios and revolutionize the world.
  • One of the things that helps his reputation of being a seductive man (on the surface at least) is his car, which he uses whenever he is going for a ride with someone. He tends to lean towards the front of the car while it's speeding with his shirt unbuttoned. It's hard to tell whether or not Akio has sex with his passenger after the ride, during the ride (which is dangerous and stupid) or if the whole thing is supposed to be a metaphor between Akio and his passenger having sex. The car being vaguely phallic-shaped doesn't help at all when it comes to figuring out what all these joyrides really mean.
    • He's also gotten into a bit of competition with some other casanovas over who can seduce the most number of people and do it with style. There are a few wannabe womanizers who are very jealous of him, but Akio couldn't care less about what they think of him. It sort of helps that some casanovas (at least, the ones that don't have a high moral ground) are willing to overlook his personal problems.
  • Some are honestly relieved that most of his manipulation prowress comes from his words and looks and nothing more. If his skills with manipulation went beyond that, it could be troublesome. Him having some sort of friendship with Dougen, who is a potent manipulator (on top of having a similar voice), has led to worries that Ohtori might learn a thing or two from Dougen about better manipulation. Dougen hasn't thought much about Ohtori's plans, but admits that he's got potential.
  • Being able to seduce others back then wasn't much of a challenge for him, but it's actually become a bit more difficult for Akio to get that same success with the number of deities who have a love interest or are engaged. Adding to that setback is that there's a good number of those who are very protective (or possessive depending on the person) of someone they love (regardless of if their love interest reciprocates those feelings or not). That and there's a lot of self-confident deities present, making his desire for power much more difficult to accomplish.
  • Despite having a high position of power in an academy, not many are really keen on him going near the School without causing any problems. It's one thing for a student and/or a teacher to fall for one another, but it's a whole different matter if someone like him gets close to a student there. This isn't even getting to the darker aspects of himself, especially since the School has its own set of problems it has to put up with on a daily basis.
  • None of the heroic princes care about him in any way due to Akio being very selfish and trying to get his powers back through unsavory means. Some princes even went as far to say that even as a formerly good man, Akio missed the point of what being a prince is: truly caring about others and not letting continuous great responsibilities wear them down.
  • Issei Hyodo holds Akio in a lot of contempt over using his sexual prowress to manipulate others. Making things more problematic is that Akio is an even worse version of Riser Phenix, the latter of whom was the mean-spirited fiancee of Rias Gremory until he was beaten by Issei. While Riser got better, Akio being very self-centered guarantees that he certainly won't improve his behavior anytime soon.
  • The Princess Precures dislike him greatly, largely because of how he physically resembles their ally Prince Kanata. Even if Akio's prior life as Prince Dios was not an easy one, the Cures just can't sympathize with him considering the number of bad actions that he did afterwards, many of which are practically the opposite of Kanata's helpfulness and selflessness.
  • Only a small number of deities ended up suffering Domestic Abuse through others and Sakura Matou is one of those victims. Hearing about what Akio did to Anthy brought back bad memories of her time with Shinji Matou and made Sakura quite upset, even if Shinji is a potentially worse person than Akio in multiple ways.
    • While Glenn Quagmire never really suffered such a thing directly, he did remember a time where his sister was in an abusive relationship with a different man that ended with Quagmire killing him. While Quagmire is well-aware of Akio being an excellent casanova, him hearing about what Akio was beyond that through others has made him reconsider going near Ohtori, mostly to avoid dark memories from coming back.
  • Comparisons have been made between him and Embryo given how they are skilled and manipulative womanizers, though Akio has also targeted men and Embryo had more than just words to get women on his side. They do get along, but there's a few bumps in their alliance. That and things turned really ugly for Akio when he tried to hit on Ange one time and she got really angry at him since she knew beforehand from others that power difference aside, Akio isn't any different from Embryo in trying to get others on his side. Embryo had to tell Akio after that meeting with Ange that she is something that Embryo will handle personally.
  • Scott Pilgrim has a lot of issues with Ohtori, specifically how he used a girlfriend for selfish interests and making life miserable in general. That and hearing how Utena had to fight for Anthy's freedom from Ohtori reminded Scott of how he had to fight Gideon Gordon Graves to ensure the freedom of Ramona Flowers.
  • Don't insinuate in front of him that he fell out of a window and died after he had a panic attack when he realized that Anthy was awake while he was molesting her. Considering that it's been stated that all interpretations of what happened at Ohtori Academy are true, it's likely that Akio is simply trying to refute the authenticity of his fallout. Some who are aware of the symbolism present in the academy and understand Utena well enough beg to differ.

  • Teeth-Clenched Teamwork with: Ghetsis Harmonia, Giovanni
  • Not to be mistaken for: Madame Medusa
  • After the incident with the puppies, Cruella de Vil was rotting in jail before the Disney Villains accidentally broke her out. This is because they mistook her for her proclaimed love child Dr. Facilier. While a lot of them are upset that they rescued a non-magical user, Cruella is grateful that they helped her get out of jail in order to finish her planned coat made out of animal fur and vowed to help them anyway she can.
  • When hearing that the dalmatians that ruined her plan have ascended, Cruella was furious and sought to capture Pongo & Perdita to seek revenge. Luckily, their temple was carefully guarded by their fellow animals deities who heard about Cruella's ascension and took careful measure and her entry was soon denied.
    • However, every single deities related to animals are extremely worried when they discovered that a version of her has the power to control beasts. They planned to keep the Disney Villains and Cruella from getting any access and information about this version as any cost.
  • Her ascension caused a major uproar in the House of Beasts after hearing about her action and the fact that she still doesn't change her way. Cruella dismisses all of them, considers them pests and accessories for her new gigantic coat.
  • Was severely disliked by the House of Commerce as while they respected her fashion sense and business strategy, they don't like how shockingly poor she treated her employee, openly antagonize them whenever Cruella doesn't get her way. Scoorge McDuck especially hates her because she once tricked him into a business meeting in order to capture him and turn him into a duck feather coat. Luckily, he was rescued by the Disney good deities.
  • Because of her extreme cruelty, animal hatefulness and alliance with Mr. Burns, Lisa Simpson openly despises her.
  • Has an extreme fascination with fire.
  • Was delighted when discovered about the existence of a variety of creatures in the Pantheon, vowing that she would catch them all and turned into several giant coats.
    • In addition, Cruella is extremely fascinated with a breed of creature called Pokemon given the fact that they can be experimented into different species and has power to control various aspect of their universe. Needless to say, every Pokemon trainers despises her and keep their pokeballs far out of her reach.
  • Cruella's quest to captures Pokemon let her to discover Ghetsis Harmonia and the two of them propose to found an Animal Wrongs Group in common interest of capturing and experimenting on Pokemon. However, this group immediately ran into conflict given the fact that Cruella wants to kill the Pokemon to make a coat while Ghetsis wants to actually use them. Add that to Cruella's managing style and the group's success rate isn't very high given the fact that its Mooks always end up leaving rather quickly.
  • The only person in the Pantheon who despises her own theme song, given the fact that it was written by Roger to mock her. Every animal-related deities catch on to this and resort to sing it whenever she's around. She did like that Florence + the Machine changed the lyrics to actually be from her point of view, but given Cruella's low popularity, don't expect people to back up that version.
  • Was very furious when people mistook her as Norma Desmond. Cruella decided to pay her temple a visit to see who she is. What results is a catfight that required physical restrain from other deities because both of them insulted each other's career choice. The two are on really bad, but funny, term ever since.
  • Tarzan once mistook her for his gorilla adoptive mother Kala because they share the same voice. When learned about what she did and support, he is disgusted and vow to not let her harm any animals in the Pantheon.
  • King Genn Greymane despises Cruella due to the fact that after learning about the worgen curse, Cruella tried to send people to provoke Genn's followers so that they can become worgens themselves and collect their fur for her coat. Not only is this incident gave bad rap for his people, it can potentially create many confuse newly cursed worgens that would wreck havok to other place in the Pantheon. He tracked her down with Pongo and Perdita's help and gave her a piece of his mind.
  • Rumors has it that Cruella has a son named Carlos. Cruella fiercely denied this, citing that she would never have children; that, in the one in million chance, she does, they will hate and despise dogs not afraid of them and they will definitely NOT perform a Heel–Face Turn.
  • Yzma shares a desire to be stylish, along with the same skinny and haggard physique as Cruella. Feels best to keep her away from any of her transformation vials, trying to use that for Cruella's fashion could get really ugly.
  • Unlike many deities, P.T. Boomer is perfectly fine with Cruella's goals...if only so he can sell the fur coats that are created. Plus, having learned that a dog was the catalyst that set up his defeat, Boomer would rather eliminate such animals as factors, and hopes that Cruella is the best in-roads for it. Her being allies with Mister Burns has likewise helped Boomer develop his network. Unfortunately, Cruella's rather histrionic personality has made this pursuit a massive chore for Boomer regardless.

  • These thoroughly vile degenerates were high-ranking fascists in the Republic of Salò, a puppet state created by Nazi Germany when Italy was in dire straits in the later years of World War II. However, they did not care about the ongoing war; instead they took advantage of their power to fulfill a much more debauched goal. They started by marrying their downtrodden daughters off to each other, and then kidnapped about 18 teenaged boys and girls. The libertines absconded in a large estate with their captives, alongside a circle of accomplices consisting of three prostitutes to entertain them with stories, four guards and four "studs". The libertines made their captives into sex slaves, subjecting them to some of the most atrocious indignities imaginable, all for the sick erotic pleasure that they derive from watching an "inferior"'s suffering. In the end, they cruelly killed most of the captives for arbitrary reasons and faced no repercussion that could be seen, although one can take some comfort in the Fascists' eventual fall.
  • Nobody precisely knows how they found their way into the Pantheon. One could be poetic and say that the hatred for these four and the sheer disgust at their actions is so powerful, that those two feelings singlehandedly propelled them into the eternity of the Pantheon. The fact remains that they are here to stay, as the Main House has given them Depraved Bisexual to rule over. Unsurprisingly, the deities that were outraged were not few and there was much wondering on how it is possible that these rapists-torturers-pedophiles-murderers could be considered acceptable as deities. Some cooler heads pointed out they were not exactly the first such villains in the Pantheon, although they may have the others beat in that they were actually very successful in their pursuits. At any rate, an instatement ceremony was skipped entirely for fear of the whole thing turning into a bloody riot.
  • The libertines have no intention of abandoning their "hobbies" and are looking forward to the possibilities the Pantheon provides them with, but they are still aware enough to realize they are not as free to do as they would back in Salò. In fact, they hardly leave their temple (the palace estate where they conducted their ritual) because a LOT of deities would not hesitate to kill them on sight, thus they have left it to their guards and studs, who are rather less recognizable, to go outside and procure new slaves for them. Although if that yields no results, then the libertines are temporarily content with satisfying their sick urges with each other and the rest of their circle; Death Is Cheap, after all, and they're all such extreme sadomasochists that they don't hold it against each other.
  • One can imagine that with the libertines' presence in the Pantheon, life has become ever so much worse for the younger deities, and that is entirely true, as concerned adult deities have started to enforce stricter rules to keep them safe from the fascists' abject cruelty (although this doesn't mean they all listen). Certain deities have gotten particularly bearish about protecting the House of Childhood and Adolescence from them and have agreed any of the fascists should just be eliminated the moment they are spotted within 2 km of the House. Granted, this comes with the caveat that any minor not belonging to that House is not as safe. Other deities started planting signs in the general area of the libertines' temple warning off anybody who approached, resulting in a minor war with the guards who always took down the signs or attempted to shoot those who planted them, until the matter was taken to the Court of Gods, who decreed the signs were entirely justified, and so the fascists were forced to conceed.
  • Although they are some of the most loathed deities in the Pantheon, that does not make them entirely bereft of allies; remember the note about them not being the first deities with their... specifications? Well, the libertines certainly did their research and came upon a certain deranged knight, Gregor Clegane, whose obscene exploits were much admired by the libertines. The guards were sent to summon him to their temple, wherein the libertines offered that he join their circle and enjoy the "delights" they have to offer, in exchange for him fighting for them when needed. They even offered to let him smash one of their guards' head in, as token of what passes for goodwill around here. Gregor, a very sadistic rapist himself, did so, and it convinced him that he would really enjoy himself if he associated with the libertines (even if it's in-between his service to the Lannisters).
  • They further obtained some more powerful allies in the equally depraved Wild Hunt, with Syura and Champ in particular feeling irresistably attracted to the libertines' activities. As enforcers for an evil empire, Wild Hunt have quite a history of abusing their position to commit unspeakable crimes against the empire's citizens, crimes which they take great pleasure in, and so they are glad to meet a likeminded group in the libertines and their circle. The libertines of course return their enthusiasm and the two groups often get together to share the stories of the depravities they've committed. That's when Wild Hunt isn't helping them fend off their enemies or kidnap new victims whom they can all abuse.
  • The rebel group Night Raid already utterly despised these four; after all, they are vile, high-ranking members of a corrupt and authoritarian government which they take advantage of to indulge in their criminal hedonism; basically the types that Night Raid has enough of dealing with in their own world. Now that the libertines have gotten very friendly with their sworn enemies from Wild Hunt, Night Raid feel they have even more reason to undermine them at every step, by hopefully stopping their kidnapping operations and preventing any more suffering wrought by them. The libertines, being fascists, are used to hearing about rebel groups trying to overthrow the government, so nothing about Night Raid particularly fazes them. In fact they seem to have a lot of faith that Wild Hunt will eventually kill them all in the end and things will remain "as they ought to".
  • And speaking of their historical context, the Pantheon has quite a few WWII veterans who served in Italy and definitely have a bone to pick with the quartet, not just for being unrepentantly aligned with the axis, but also for the sheer horror that their heretofore unheard-of crimes evoke. Their enemies thus include Karl Fairburne (who's personally killed some high-ranking Italian officers and wouldn't mind at all assassinating these four), Boyd Travers and Vito Scaletta. Conversely, the libertines have the help of several Nazi German units and officers, namely The Valkyrie Jäger, a Fallschirmjager unit that fought in Italy, who have occasionally been tasked with guarding high-ranking Axis officers, several members of the Waffen-SS who coincidentally also assisted them before their ascension, and Heinz Böhm, a Nazi Luftwaffe General put in charge of the Axis occupation and defense of a region of Southern Italy, and who's nearly as sadistic as they are. It's a bit doubtful whether they are on board with the full extent of the libertines' actions, but they haven't pronounced themselves on the matter one way or another.
  • They have gotten blessings and patronage from certain divines who are pleased with their philosophy and actions, most notably the Chaos God Slaanesh, who's thrilled with the extents they will go to in order to fulfill their lusts. The same goes for Slaanesh's underling of sorts, Mara. While the libertines find the two to be worth worshipping, Mara is their pronounced favorite on account of its being a literal giant penis; there's nothing else that's more appropriate to worship, in the libertines' opinion.
  • They can be said to embody many sins (lust is the most obvious, but they've shown just about every other one at some point); the infamous Seven Deadly Sins-obsessed killer John Doe has certainly noticed it and has accordingly put them on his hit list. If there were any human beings that proved, beyond any doubt, John Doe's incredibly cynical and misanthropic view of the human species, these four are definitely it. For that reason, John Doe would like to take his time in planning something really big for them. His murder schedule is packed as it is, too, so they might just be left for last. Needless to say, the libertines look at John Doe and his condemnation of sin with mingled contempt and pity; he is only one unremarkable guy, and besides, they wonder how he could possibly see life devoid of sin as being worth living.
  • The Five Survivors absolutely hate the libertines, with good reason as they see the four and their circle as being something like a collective human version of their digital tormentor AM. The fact that there are humans whose love for cruelty towards their fellow man matches that of AM could almost drive the Survivors to despair. The libertines look at the Survivors' situation as very amusing, and would probably attempt to take part in it if AM weren't so murderously hateful towards humans in general. Actually, the libertines do wonder why AM wallows in hatred and self-loathing when he could be having the time of his life torturing his five prisoners for all eternity. They suppose it's a quirk of this newfangled technology others call a computer.
  • Now that technology is mentioned, if there is one very advanced deity the libertines get along with, that would be Dr. Weil. While the cyborg is a peculiar sight to them, they soon discovered Weil has similar views to them, mainly in his belief in how there's nothing like lording over one's perceived inferiors, forcing them to do whatever you please and shooting down their hopes. In the name of creating a world where such is the rule, Weil seems to be quite comfortable allying himself with the libertines and looking the other way when it comes to their more perverse activities, which don't appeal to him. The libertines are pretty satisfied with this, especially as being allied with Weil gives them access to robotic warriors that might succeed in matters where Gregor or Wild hunt, with their human limitations, can't.
  • They were more than happy to receive a film director who showed genuine interest in their activities and committing them to film; that was snuff film director Lionel Starkweather, who has made quite a name for himself filming various elaborate and gruesome murders. The libertines, having seen a few of them, thought that was all well and good, but found the lack of intercourse a pity. Well, that's what Lionel visited them for, and the libertines were more than happy to oblige, provided they get their a copy of the film for their own enjoyment, of course. Ever since then, the libertines have supported Lionel in other ways, mainly by funding more of his filmmaking efforts.
  • Because they've been confirmed to be fascists, SCP-2578-D has also taken time to shoot at their temple from time to time. The SCP Foundation hopes that SCP-3922-As, which is associated with the Three Moons Initiative like 2578, don't get ascended, because things would get complicated and ugly real fast.
  • "Idiot, did you really think we would kill you? Don't you see we want to kill you a thousand times, to the limits of eternity, if eternity could have limits?"

  • To the public, Robert Daly is nothing more than the founder and CTO of Callister, Inc, the developers of the hit MMORPG Infinity, but that’s what the public. When he’s by himself, however, things take a far darker turn, as he takes DNA samples of his coworkers and uploads them into his Infinity Game Mod based on his beloved Space Fleet. Forcing clones of those who work for him to live out the lives of NPCs for all of eternity or risk suffering a Cool and Unusual Punishment if the don’t do exactly what he says. This torment went on for days on end until the Infinity patching software detected an irregularity in the code and sought to delete the modded game. Unable to escape in time, Daly watch as the digital universe collapsed in front of him as he stood there within empty space in a ship he could not control, unable to exit the game as his body laid dormant in the material realm… that was, until the pantheon came in. One day, Daly was approached by four players named xXMoreGothXx, LivingALiebert75, TheFifthGodhand and BibidiBabidiBuu who approached him with an offer, if Daly joined their organization, he’d be allowed to continue his modded adventures and be allowed to escape the game world.
  • Robert is one of the only deities for which AM can truly call a friend, rather than a mere ally or coworker, owing to their shared M.O. and general immorality. The two of them are often seen together in the GUAE's dungeons watching their enemies suffer and plotting out new methods of torture when the two have some alone time. Because of this, The Five Survivors have rallied against Daly for his abhorrent schemes, which are themselves incredibly similar to their own experiences with AM.
  • For his crimes against clonekind, Daly has been permanently banned from the house of Derivatives and is considered a Persona Non Grata among the Pantheon's clone population. Daly thinks nothing of this, viewing clones as nothing more than glorified punching bags for him to vent out the frustrations he has with the real people he can't stand up to outside of the game world. But even among clones, special mention goes to the following.
    • Rei Ayanami, the clone of Yui Ikari, views herself as expendable because of the fact that NERV has hundreds of more clones ready in case of her deathnote , and she sees the torture Daly puts his digital replicas through as placing her torment on those who do not deserve it, and Daly will pay for his crimes.
    • Fate Testarossa and Astro Boy exist as replacements for their creators deceased children, and see Daly's modus operandi as abhorrent on a personal level since they believe that they could have easily gone through an endless loop of cloning had certain thing played out differently.
    • Angela is a digital copy of another woman, just like the ones Daly uses to roleplay Space Fleet, so naturally she fears what would happen if Daly got his hands on her hard drive or figured out how to copy her onto Infinity. She's currently made a special, Space Fleet themed Nintendo Hard Boss Rush just in case Daly tries anything stupid.
    • Above all clones present in the Pantheon, Lea has possibly the closest connection to Daly and his abhorrent schemes. Lea is an "Evotar" a digital copy of another person used as part of MMO CrossWorlds, just like the DNA duplicates that Daly uses. Moreover, a man with close ties the the developers, Sidwell, profited off of abusing Evotars (including those of himself) to extract information, and viewed them as nothing more than Expendable Clones. While the treat of Sidwell is already dealt with, the dangerously similar Daly is still at large, doing far worse thing to clones while also having the approval of Melkor backing up his twisted Power Fantasy. Lea has sworn to stop Daly at all costs, while other Grand United Alliance of Good members have bigger fish to fry.
  • Daly was positively delighted to learn that Space Fleet was but only an imitation of the real Star Trek, and demanded that a DVD of every season of every series be brought to his temple. The ascended Starfleet personnel stood and reminded him that he holds no real power within the organization, and that Kirk, his idol, would be right there to smack some sense into the false Captain should he ever fall out of line.
  • The Space Garrison was quick to learn that Robert is just as big a fan of Ultraman as he is of Space Fleet, and that he wants the inner lights of the Ultramen for himself so that he could fight alongside them in-game, something that the Land of Light will make sure never comes to pass.
  • Darkseid has come to entertain the idea of a world ruled over by an uncaring god with no one being unable to oppose them, and offered Daly a chance to join the GUAE Dystopia Harbingers and provide service to the Lord of Tyranny, an offer Daly gleefully accepted.
  • Masamune Dan and Nobuyuki Sugou quickly became some of the few outright comrades Daly has amongst the gods, as all three are some of the few game developers present in the Pantheon on top of their overflowing wickedness. Time will tell if they will ever consider being business partners.
  • Is considered a most-wanted threat amongst the GUAG White Hats for his wanton cruelty and downright omnipotence in his realm, outright eliminating the Space Fleet mod from Cyberspace entirely is a high priority for the group.
  • Robert went positively giddy at the prospect of being in the same Pantheon as Darth Vader, a real Sci-Fi bad guy, and proposed a Villain Team-Up. Needless to say, the situation got messy really quick, Vader pointed out that the clones that Daly uses are, for all intents and purposes, slaves, and to Vader Slavery Is a Special Kind of Evil because he was himself Born into Slavery, and demanded that Daly must leave his sight or else suffer a Force Choke. Needless to say, the two haven't seen each other since, at least without a fight breaking out
  • He was quick to compare himself to Naminé. Both of them used their abilities to insert themselves into stories, but Naminé argued that the similarities end there. She was but only a pawn in Xemnas's scheme, which she hesitated in doing, and neither of those excuses apply to Daly. The fact that Nobodies are technically clones makes the resentment run deeper. He then made the same statement to Wanda Maximoff, the Scarlet Witch, as she also trapped people into an alternate reality based on "retro" television. Wanda retorts that she wasn't in the right mind back then and that she went mad with grief (it happens a lot) whereas Daly's routine is just sheer pettiness by way of Disproportionate Retribution.
  • As a fellow programmer and Black Mirror god, Daly was quick to meet up with Stefan Butler, and resentment between the two quickly erupted because of his own Cosmic Plaything status and the fact the he himself was trapped in an endless loop (in his case, one of time) on top of being mind-controlled by (Insert Name Here) in contrast to Daly, who desires control over everything while also being a Cruel Player-Character God that forces everyone to do exactly what he says.
  • Daly is, at least, on speaking terms with Dr. Wily. Both men were brilliant innovators in their fields (virtual reality and robotics, respectively) and should have been heralded as heroes for their talents, but were ultimately overshadowed by someone else (James Walton and Dr. Light, respectively), but that’s where their camaraderie ends, as Wily considers someone like Daly beneath him, as he did nothing beside make some video game whereas Wily can put the extinction of humanity on his résumé.
  • Both Melkor and Darkseid saw the potential in Daly's miraculous ability to replicate a person as a digital copy, complete with memories and a personality matching their source, based entirely on a single DNA sample, and have sent his digital replicas to guard GUAE/Harbinger related locations in the Cyberverse to serve as Expendable Clone Mooks. Master Xehanort has also taken an interest in Robert for this reason, as he could aid him in obtaining 13 copies of himself, Daly agreed, since getting an autograph from Leonard Nimoy was on his bucket list.
  • Is well aware of his resemblance to Matt Damon, which has lead certain deities to ponder the idea that Daly is a clone himself, a statement that he has repeatedly denied. Because of this, Team America is frequently seen outside Daly’s temple, uttering Matt Damooon, Matt Damooon at least once every Friday.
