  • Real estate tycoon. Galactic conqueror. Terrifying despot. Exterminator. Traitor. Trades in fear, terror, and agony, for they are the only things he seems to understand. Inspires mutual hatred in almost everyone he knows unless they are similarly evil and/or just plain weird. Natural power and potential almost unrivaled. This is Lord Frieza, the Emperor of the Universe.
  • Often confuses the other gods by appearing in his myriad other forms. For a long time, no one had seen Final Form Frieza and lived…except for Jack Bauer. And Goku. Also, he's kept a mental list of how many heroic speeches he's heard before, and really needs to lay off the Space Twitter.
    Frieza: Lol Blewed up Filthy Monkey Planet.
  • He doesn't consider that his brother Cooler should join the Pantheon. Why? Because he's a prick. After ascending, He's going to slap Cooler in his smug prick face. Unfortunately, and much to Frieza's chagrin, Vanitas has been working on getting Cooler into the Pantheon, and has succeeded. Thankfully, they're not in the same House.
  • With the recent ascension of Sun Wukong, Frieza is getting really tired of monkeys ascending into the pantheon, so he orders the Ginyu Force to kill any other monkeys who attempt to ascend.
  • It's said that he is still seeking immortality, which is really odd since he's already a God. Most likely he just wants to be extra-unkillable when he finally faces Goku in a rematch. This, however, turned out to be false, with Frieza declaring he got over the idea of guaranteed immortality due to his time tortured in a saccharine Ironic Hell as a disembodied cocooned head. Aside from instilling in him an absolute HATRED of anything cute and the occasional alignment with The Trix since they were all trapped in similar cutesy places, it made him realize that being unable to be killed could result in him being fatally crippled and staying that way forever without the hope of death as a release. Still, after another immortality-seeker in Garlic Jr. came to ascend, Frieza is fine with working with Garlic to gain revenge on the Sons, as long as Garlic sticks to immortality and taking out Gohan and leaves both Goku and the position of strongest to him.
  • Following his defeat by the Super Saiyan Son Goku and his death at the hands of a mysterious younger Super Saiyan, one continuity showed Frieza encountering Goku and Gohan several times in the afterlife thanks to either their brushes with death or a portal between Hell and Earth opening. Those instances were generally harmless as the Sons' power had long eclipsed his by then. However, it became known that in the main canon, Sorbet and Tagoma, two of his organization's remnants, were planning to revive him. The old GUAG feared what could happen to Goku if he came back more powerful than ever.
    • Indeed, in order to regain control of the Evil Power Vacuum in space, the Frieza Force subordinates would sneak onto Earth and steal its Dragon Balls for the wish, committing the dreaded act known as "Resurrection ‘F’," or "the worst wish in history." After said revival, as well as his body reconstituting itself through his ship's advanced rejuvenation chamber, Frieza acted on a deduction that his power could increase through training at a rate exponentially higher than that of the Saiyans. This allowed him to unlock a brand new, more powerful form, that was capable of oppressing Goku. In the beginning of the fight. Only in the beginning of the fight. Because of his impatience, he would completely forego endurance training, once again being incapable of sustaining his full power for very long and being embarrassed by not only Goku, but also Vegeta, as Super Saiyan God Super Saiyans. Cue the Emperor blowing up Earth in a fit of rage, with Whis pulling a Superman and turning back time so that Goku and Vegeta could put an end to Freeza for another time.
  • As of late, he is rarely ever out of the House of Power, being busy training for his upcoming rematch with Goku.
  • Is a fan of LittleKuriboh, seeing his portrayal of him as perfectly encapsulating his character.
  • With his brother in the Pantheon, Cooler has been constantly teasing Frieza, usually relating to Frieza playing "Pretty Pink Princess". Frieza vehemently denies ever doing so. Recently.
    • He enjoyed seeing Cooler freak out upon discovering that he had come back with power that rivals Beerus's first revealed level, since this boost of power means Cooler might be disqualified for the position of Stronger Sibling. Cooler is currently fighting for his long-held position.
      • Upon hearing of Cooler's invasion of the House of War, Frieza let him be. He's proven himself the stronger sibling, which is more than enough to satisfy him. When Cooler had to petition another place in the Pantheon, Frieza outright laughed at his new title, as it basically invalidated every claim Cooler ever made of being greater than him. Still, he supported Cooler's rebirth by the Time Breakers as the prime Metal Cooler; even if it diminished their gap in power a great deal, this only made him a proper ally against Goku and Vegeta. He's even nonchalant about the later development of Golden Cooler more or less closing the gap, as he knows he's still more adept at handling that power.
  • Zamasu claims that Frieza, perhaps more so than even Goku, is proof of the depravity of mortals and the failure of the gods. Despite being as evil if not more so, most concede he has an argument; the fact that Beerus and Shin didn't interfere against Frieza is one of the reasons why Universe 7 is the second-lowest in rank. Frieza is entirely disdainful of Zamasu himself, not only because he's gotten tired of hearing people in his cosmos extolling their personal brands of justice, whether hypocritical or not, but also because one of his components wears Goku's face. Just seeing that form is bad enough, but knowing that Zamasu wields it about as naturally as an arrogant doll is icing on the cake, if only because it takes away some of the satisfaction from beating Goku's face in.
  • Others who believe that the strong should rule over the weak, such as Azula, King Bradley, Corset (who also sounds very similar to him, if only a touch more crude) and even Ragyo Kiryuin as depraved and sadistic as she is (though upon second glance, that would be a plus for Frieza), have started to gain Frieza's support. Reportedly the Lord of the Universe thinks that some version of Earth should have what he deems to be a suitable ruler. Many don't quite know what to make of this, but most can agree that whatever his endgame is cannot be good. Frost thinks the ones most in danger are those "suitable rulers" themselves, given his experience being played for a fool by Frieza. That or anything else aside, the Emperor of Mankind cannot abide by this and has expressed his desire to see Frieza eliminated due to that time he destroyed Earth. Frieza considers Big E to be a hypocritical fool.
  • Frieza has a mysterious origin that not even the gods of the Pantheon know much about. What is known about is that according to Chronoa, Frieza's background is different in many timelines. In a different timeline, Frieza was created by the Supreme Kai of the West in order to obtain the strongest entity in the universe. Frieza laughed at the idea, but also admitted that being considered a godly being was quite a flattering thought, even though his true ambitions lay above the gods.
  • After hearing about the feared and powerful alien conqueror Boros, Frieza decided to confront him personally to see just how true the rumors of his strength were. Boros smiled gleefully at the prospect of being challenged by another powerful alien overlord like himself, and yes, both were pleased with the resulting battle. So pleased, in fact, that the two intergalactic lords became best buddies, much to the shock and horror of everyone else.
    • When Frieza told Boros how he achieved his strongest form after a mere four months of training, Boros started to take sparring matches with him whenever they both had time. During these sparring sessions, he would occasionally talk of the Saiyans, venting his hatred for them and referencing their immense combat potential. Much to Frieza's pleasure, he and Boros have improved their skills considerably from this parring, and Boros plans on testing his gains out against the Saiyans.
  • When Android 21 surfaced to revive him for what was chronologically the second time only so she could eventually beat him up and then eat him up, he was utterly indignant about the mere idea of being cultivated as livestock. Now that she's ascended, he wants to score payback and erase her. Even if she's playing goody-two-shoes at the moment.
  • Frieza was enraged to learn that King Kai was the one who helped out the Z-Fighters, claiming that he had no right to interfere with his actions as he ran a perfectly Lawful Evil business; an argument no-one else buys, and Frieza likely wouldn't follow anyway. He ended up getting his revenge by proxy. After honoring his deal with the others in the Tournament of Power, Whis resurrected him at the behest of Beerus. King Kai, who like Frieza has been dead for years, was unbelievably annoyed that Frieza was revived by the good guys before he was.
  • Despite being professional enough to not confront him during the Tournament of Power, Android 18 has a deep grudge against Frieza stemming from when he killed Krillin. Were it not for the Dragon Balls, she would've never met her husband because of him. It doesn't help that Krillin is obviously still spooked by Frieza; when the monster returned, he had her stay behind despite being stronger than him specifically to protect their daughter Marron even before finding out anything about Frieza's massive gains in strength.
  • Turles has shown a deep hatred of Frieza's race and wishes to wipe them all out. When the Tournament of Power happened, Turles was livid because spoiler:FRIEZA was part of Team Universe 7. He'd rather Universe 7 get erased than allow that psychopath to work with the Saiyans. Frieza merely responded that he was a pale imitation, about to become even paler as he's planning something big. Ultimately, while his original plan to usurp the position of the gods fell by the wayside and his approach to evil empire became more pragmatic and less gratuitous thanks to the influence of the Tournament of Power and actually teaming with Goku, this has only let him to taking on power unlike anything Turles could've ever imagined in the form of Black Frieza.
  • Oddly, it turns out the hatred he feels for Goku is not the bigoted and condescending type reserved for former underlings like Vegeta, Nappa and Raditz; rather, it resembles the antagonistic "friendship" shared between the likes of Batman and The Joker. After all, Goku is the man whose courage, hard work and honor allowed him to best him not once, but twice; that alone entitles the Saiyan warrior to his sincere respect, especially as it caused Frieza to dedicate himself to actual training, becoming stronger than he could've known. After fighting side by side as brothers-at-arms to protect Universe Seven in the Tournament of Power, this respect is now completely mutual on Goku's part. Ryu and Akuma have both compared this to the recent turn in their own relationship; two enemies destined to fight again, but both acknowledging each other as true warriors this time.
    • In fact, Freeza's respect and admiration extends to both Goku's father Bardock and his eldest child Gohan, the former for his sharing his son's courage and the latter for his intelligence and cunning. Even before the former was fully realized, it was worth noting he remembered Bardock's name and face far more vividly than even those of King Vegeta. With Gohan, the respect is mutual after they worked together during the Tournament of Power. With Bardock, it is most decidedly not. On the other end, Goku himself is not the only god who gained respect for Frieza through his efforts in the Tournament. At Beerus' request, Whis resurrected the Emperor of the Universe once again.
  • He has been Locked Out of the Loop that both his deaths are because of time travel. He was first killed by Future Trunks, and when he tried to Rage Quit the second time around Whis rewinded time so Goku could kill him. (Goku was originally the one to kill him in Trunks and Cell's timeline.) Upon his revival he was very confused as to why there was a kid version of his executioner. Ascending into the Pantheon led him to learn about Future Trunks, and has sworn one day to find his timeline and make him pay. For now, however, he's more focused on his enemies in the present timeline. That, and rebuilding his empire upon his third revival. He's learned the importance of Pragmatic Villainy, no need to rush against Future Trunks.
  • To many's surprise, he and Hit have actually met before. He promised to one day make the Universe 6 assassin beg to be killed. There is a commonality between Hit, Frieza, and even Cooler, all being purple-themed fighters with more creative moves, stronger abilities, and great potential for improvement, whose first true measurable adversary is the Earth-raised Saiyan Son Goku. However, Hit is decidedly the one with the most noble traits out of the three in his approach to his assassin's profession versus their galactic conquest as well as lacking any supremacist temper or desire to destroy worlds. When he later learned that the two had crossed paths when Hit and Kenshiro destroyed Metal Cooler's clone army and left him alone to be defeated by Vegeta in the Hall of Pride (which is of course now the House of Pride and Egotism), Frieza couldn't help but haughtily laugh at Cooler's misfortune before suggesting that his brother should've waited until he himself would readily oblige being summoned to assist the task.
  • Frieza was approached by a being called Infinite who resides in Vegeta's subhouse and also hates the Saiyan Prince. Infinite believed that the two were similar enough in how they fell from power, came back stronger, and still lost in the end that they could strike up an alliance against Vegeta. Frieza, however, saw that Infinite was still stuck in his hubris and could not maximize his true power because of it, so instead he made a counter-proposal to have Infinite work for him. The jackal walked off in a huff, though Frieza is holding patience to see if he later changes his mind.
  • Frieza has begun drinking beer and playing Poker at the Pantheonic Bad Guy Bar of with Nobuyuki Sugou, former fairy King of Alfheim Online; the latter sharing stories with the former of how he was also sliced and diced into pieces by another pretty-boy Teenage Swordsman. Being a classy and gentlemanly villain, Frieza make no secret of his contempt for the crass and tasteless Sugou, but doesn't kill him because of pub rules. Much more favorably, he's also taken to having wine on weekends with fellow Mafioso bosses Vito and Michael Corleone; though Vito is impressed by the success of the alien Don's business ventures, he remains wary of finalizing any deals with him due to his utter lack of honor and boundaries. Frieza for his part has taken a great liking to Michael for his ruthlessness, as he was willing to kill his own incompetent brother Fredo in order to secure his business interests. No doubt
  • Despite rejecting his subordinates Sorbet and Tagoma's idea to revive his father and predecessor along with him after they discussed how it was foiled by Emperor Pilaf's group, Frieza was pleased to see the return of King Cold in the Pantheon. He admits Cold had a point about being pragmatic, and while Cold's parenting was an odd mishmash of harsh and spoiling, it did produce the Emperor of The Universe. Cold is also not upset with Frieza, but rather proud of him for his development; instead his ire is focused on the Pilaf gang.
  • Views Char Aznable's ideology as a joke, since his totalitarian regime across Universe 7 kept things stable, while Char's attempt to unite Spacenoids did nothing to stop the endless state of war the Universal Century is in. Since his third resurrection, he's taken a more nuanced view and has gained the tiniest inch of respect for Char, hardly the same as his warrior's respect for Goku. This is highly one-sided, as Char can't stand the galactic conqueror for his cruelty and sadism.
  • Also resides in the House of Shape.

Intermediate Gods

    Anna Kyōyama 
Anna Kyōyama, Goddess of the Bitch Slap (Anna Asakura, Anna Kyoyama/Kyouyama/Kyoh'yama, Shaman Queen, Anna the Itako II)
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/anna_kyoyama.png
Click here to see Anna as an adult
  • Intermediate Goddess
  • Symbol: Her red bandana and blue rosary beads
  • Theme Song: Anna Kyoyama's Theme
  • Alignment: Neutral Good
  • Portfolio: Known for her infamous "right hand slap" and "phantom left hand slap" (or "Legendary Left"), Can channel and bind spirits, as well as read minds, 2nd Generation Itako, Tsundere, Sugar-and-Ice Personality, Unusually strong despite her slim appearance, Cute Bruiser
  • Domain(s): Spirituality, Souls, Slapping
  • Heralds: Ponchi and Conchi (her guardian ghosts), Asakura Hana (her son, shared with Yoh).
  • Allies:
  • Enemies: Frieza, Dio Brando
  • Originating from Aomori, Japan, Anna was abandoned as a little girl because she was born with the ability to unwillingly see into other people's minds. She was found and raised by Yoh's grandmother, Asakura Kino. Anna's ability to master the arts of the Itako, even though fully sighted, is a testament to her power. Because of this, Yoh's grandparents paired them up in an arranged marriage in order to keep the family bloodline strong. Unable to control her reishi (mind-reading ability), she was constantly bombarded by the negative thoughts and emotions of people around her, so she confined herself to her room as much as possible. However, her loneliness ended after she met Yoh, who saved her from an Oni that she had inadvertently created through a combination of her shamanic powers and hatred. Anna then grew to love Yoh because he was able to free her from the darkness that haunted her every day. From there on, she constantly trained him to become a better and stronger shaman as a gratitude, and almost never gave him any reprieve.
  • Following her ascension, Anna was reunited with her husband Yoh and many of the other Shonen Jump deities, whom she had fought alongside with on a previous occasion. However, she was also annoyed to discover that Frieza and Dio Brando had ascended as well, as she had fought against them when they had previously tried to invade her world.
  • She is rather indifferent towards Ranma, but was surprised to learn that Ranma's female form sounded like her. A similar situation occured with Luffy, who remarked that her voice reminded him of Rebecca. However, everyone quickly learned not to make any remarks about how Hello Kitty also occassionally sounds like her. The last person to do so personally experienced her infamous slap.
  • Due to their similar personalities, Anna gets along quite well with Rei Hino and Mitsuru Kirijo.
  • She's particularly close to Haruka Kotoura, as they both had lonely and unhappy childhoods caused by their uncontrollable mindreading. The two are often seen hanging out.
  • Anna is not particularly fond of Ren and Stimpy, as they remind her of Ponchi and Conchi. As such, she generally tries to avoid them.
  • Although she's an Itako, many have noted that Anna is a rather unconventional one, being much younger than an Itako would be expected to be, not being blind as most Itako are, and not living the medium's ascetic lifestyle. This initially resulted in her receiving odd looks from Mikos such as Rei Hino and Tomoe. However, she quickly earned their respect and friendship after demonstrating her powers.
  • Aside from Rei Hino and Tomoe, Anna has also befriended other Mikos such as Momiji and Mai Takatsukasa. She's also on good terms with Renamon, particularly when the later digivolves into her higher forms, who are Mikos. Anna occasionally asks Renamon to protect her temple, which the fox Digimon also does for other Mikos throughout the pantheon.
  • Anna generally gets along with fellow spirit channeler Maya Fey. However, due to their differing personalities, they don't usually spend much time together.
  • Her talent at binding spirits has resulted in evil ghosts generally avoiding her. As a result, her trips through the House of Ghosts have generally been uneventful.
  • The strong implication that Anna was pregnant with Yoh's child for the majority of the Shaman Fight, when she was around 14-15, is a common question that she's asked by particularly curious deities. Anna pretty much never gives a firm answer on the matter, but generally implies that it is indeed true.

    Azel 
Azel, God of The Strength of The Devil Hand (The Devil Hand, The Vessel of Angra/SATAN)
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ghazel.png
  • Intermediate God
  • Symbol: The Devil Hand in his left arm glowing with red energy making the Image of The Demon King Angra.
  • Theme Song: Devil May Sly, Duel Storm, Anthem of ANGRA
  • Alignment: Neutral Evil
  • Portfolio: Cool Shades, Badass Longcoat, Left-Arm Opposite of Gene
  • Domains: Violence, Destruction, Coolness
  • Allies: Kun Lan, David Zappa, Vergil Sparda, Father Balder, Fortinbras
  • Enemies: Gene, Dante Sparda, Ryu, Rick Taylor and The Terror Mask, Arvis, Tailto
  • Angered at how "That idiot" was able to ascended long before him, Azel decided to ascended himself with The Power of The Devil hand.
  • After his ascension, he decided to work with other demons and demon summoners to form a new Four Devas as he is attempting to summon The Demon King Angra, this time it will be under his control.
    • To this end he has entered into a deal with Mundus to try and elimate The Terror Mask, he personally wants to discover a way to use its power control Angra.
  • He has often seen with Vergil and giving him aid when he needs it as to him they share many similarities.
  • He often is mistaken for Leon S. Kennedy much to his annoyance.
  • He is one of the few that has no time limit on his God Hand thus he uses it freely when he needs to get serious.
  • Has formed a strange sort of alliance with Kun Lan as Lan believes that there is a connection between their God Hands, Azel is wary of what that may mean though decides to get the power needed to defeat Gene and gain his God Hand.
  • Is unknown what connection there is between Satan and Angra as Angra was also known as SATAN in his realm. Satan has expressed in gaining his Devil Hand and Azel knows never to trust Satan with such power so they stay away from each other.
  • Finds that in order to gain power he has aligned himself under The God of Light, Fortinbras, though Fortibras has never hidden the fact that he hates his Humanity The White Serpent understands that The Devil Hand's power may have some use.
  • For the record, he's not the second Prince of Velthomer. This doesn't stop a lot of Jugdral natives to get pissed on him because of his evil acts, in Arvis' case, him sharing the name of his beloved bastard brother just gives off vibes that said brother was a Loptyr follower (and that's just a complete insult for both), and in case of Tailto, it's because said prince was one of her best childhood friend and is absolutely nothing like this Azel.

    Bewear 
Bewear, Goddess of Affectionate but Deadly Hugs (The Strong Arm Pokémon, Kiteruguma)
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bewear_1.png
  • Intermediate Goddess. Greater Goddess when Dynamaxed.
  • Symbol: Its face; A warning sign with its silhouette on it
  • Theme Music: Bewear Appears!
  • Alignment: True Neutral
  • Gender: Female
  • Ability: Fluffy
  • Moveset: Brutal Swing, Hammer Arm, Return, Rock Tomb
    • Z-Move: Breakneck Blitz
  • Portfolio: Beary Friendly, Enjoys being Affectionate but Often Ends Up Killing Her Targets Because She Doesn't Know Her Own Super-Strength, The Most Feared and Dangerous Pokémon in Alola, Cute Bruiser, Normal/Fighting-type Pokémon
  • Domains: Bears, Strength, Deadly affection
  • Herald: Her Stufful cub
  • Allies: The Team Rocket Trio, N, Winnie the Pooh, Paddington Bear, Po, Mimikyu, The Care Bears
  • Enemies: Pheromosa (For exploiting Meowth and making him cry), Pokémon Hunter J, Ghetsis, Lysandre, SCP-1048, Bashmaster the Unbreakable
  • Feared by: Pretty much anyone who sees her strength first-hand, Pinky and the Brain, The Warner Brothers and Sister
  • Complicated Relationships: Ash Ketchum and Pikachu, Misty, Brock, Serena, Naughty Bear
  • One day in the Pantheon, an ear-piercing scream was heard. Everyone stood on edge as they launched an investigation, eventually coming across the Pokémon known as Bewear. All those from the World of Pokémon panicked on sight at seeing the Strong Arm Pokémon, while those not in the know thought Bewear was pretty cute... until Bewear showed off her strength. Immediately, they had to run away to escape from Bewear's strong and crushing grip. The Pokémon deities explained how Bewear is the most dangerous Pokémon in Alola because they don't know their own strength, causing them to accidentally kill anyone they try to hug.
    • The Team Rocket Trio could only express shock when they crossed paths with Bewear, recognizing her as the same Pokémon who acted as their caretaker, before expressing joy at seeing her again. While Bewear did kidnap them in the first place, the Trio made the most of it and used her den as a base of operations, growing to care for her and her Stufful. They had parted ways eventually, but on the best of terms, with Bewear actually sending them to Kanto herself. Bewear is also happy to see her friends again in the Pantheon, though she will still get in the way if the trio tries to steal Pikachu again.
  • Out of all the gods who would be most likely to handle Bewear, Bear Hugger was chosen among them, since they both give affectionate but crushing hugs. The two get along splendidly. Bear Hugger and Bewear can be seen in the House of Friendship, hanging out, having matches, or giving the other a Bear Hug.
  • Ash and all of his friends are nervous around Bewear whenever they get too close, but at the same time, they do accept Bewear within the Pantheon. While they are all flabbergasted whenever Bewear does something unexpected, they're okay with having Bewear around if she keeps Team Rocket from causing any trouble.
  • Yakko, Wakko, Dot, Pinky, and the Brain all dislike and fear Bewear, who reminds them of Elmyra Duff and her extreme affections towards animals, crushing them to death in her Bear Hugs.
  • N is one of the few who can walk up to Bewear without fear, since he understands the hearts of Pokémon. Bewear in turn is also far more gentle around N than she is around even Team Rocket, much to their surprise.
  • Though Bewear doesn't usually mean any harm when she shows affection, there are some she genuinely does not like. She once fought a Pheromosa for exploiting Meowth and discarding him like used goods. She will even fight humans who attack her friends or her cub, such as Hunter J, Ghetsis, and Lysandre. These people learned the hard way never to mess with Bewear (In fact, she is one of the few Pokémon Hunter J takes seriously as a threat), and do there best to avoid them whenever possible.
  • Bewear is shown to be very friendly to Winnie the Pooh, sharing honey with him whenever they meet at her home. Pooh Bear truly enjoys these meetings and the honey she serves.
    • Bewear is also shown to be outright friendly with Paddington and Po, fellow bears within the Pantheon and tends to make her home cozy whenever they visit. The feeling is mutual on their end, though they are rather wary of her strength and would prefer not to get a bear hug.
    • The Care Bears, on the other hand, are far more open to Bewear's hospitality. Even if they try encourage her to watch her strength, Bewear hopes the Care Bears can be good babysitters for her cub whenever she isn't around.
  • Bewear doesn't particularly like SCP-1048, a Killer Teddy Bear that intentionally kills people. Naughty Bear, on the other hand, is complicated since he attacks teddy bears who are mean to him, though Bewear still doesn't approve of his cruel and unusual methods. Especially because she doesn't want him to be a bad influence on her cub.
    • Bashmaster is impressed by Bewear's strength, but she doesn't want anything to do with him. She makes it clear if he tries to harm the people she cares about, she will make him fear her more than anything.

  • Opposes: Any and all Slavers in the Pantheon.
  • Odd Friendship with: Noel Vermillion, Mio Akiyama, Asuna Yuuki, Iona Hikawa/Cure Fortune
  • Conflicting Opinion with: Ren Hakuryuu
  • She ascended after Aladdin told her of that someone was looking for a new sparring partner (Yinping) because not many gods can handle her immense strength. After said sparring match they quickly became friends though Yinping wonders why she's so strong because she doesn't have a lot of muscles.
  • She was surprised that Alibaba and almost confused Eren and Flynn for him thanks to them sounding the same.
  • She got along with Erza and views her as a Cool Big Sis. She is also happy that she has someone to talk to about her nightmare of being a slave.
  • She and Aladdin are now waiting for Alibaba to ascend.
  • After hearing that Ren Hakuryuu had ascended she decided to keep an eye on him and is prepared to stop him if he goes off the rails again.
  • Being the goddess of Going Commando, Ataru Moroboshi is constantly trying to peek. Unfortunately for him, Captain Tylor always manages to find a penny everytime he gets close.
  • Strangely enough, she happens to get along with Noel Vermillion and Mio Akiyama. Maybe it's because they have a few things in common.
  • She was initially happy to hear of Hakuryuu's ascension but after seeing that he has fallen into depravity makes her very worried for his well being as a former friend of his.
  • She relinquished one of her titles in order to make space for other gods.
  • Also has a spot in House of Costumes.

    Murray Hippo 
Murray Hippo, God of the Thunder FLOP!!!!! (The Murray, The Muscle, The Brawn, The Pink Tornado)
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/1ecf498172990eb9bf3bd9459f1d5f02.png
  • Lesser God
  • Symbol: The Cooper Van
  • Theme Song: Thieves in Time (shared with Sly and Bentley)
  • Alignment: Chaotic Good
  • Portfolio: calling himself The Murray, overenthusiastic ham, being a pink hippo, pulling off wrestling moves, going through devastating events, before coming back with VENGEANCE!!!, scarfs for combat, really loving to fight and being very energetic when kicking ass, using the Cooper Van to fight bad guys, fighting using his fists through fiery or electric punches, the Guttueral Roar, Atlas Strength, Having his franchise canned in the middle of a major cliffhanger
  • Domains: Wrestling, Wrecking, Driving, Thievery
  • Allies: Sly Cooper, Bentley Turtle, Panda King, Dimitri, The Guru (his "master"), King II, Zangief, Rey Mysterio, Sora, Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy, Oebra Yun Fang
  • Friendly Rival: Po
  • Friendly Enemy: Carmelita Fox
  • Enemies: Clockwerk, Neyla,Penelope Mouse (ex-team member), Clu, Master Control Program, Sark
  • Ascended after, Sly's near-death experience on a blimp following a fight with Le Paradox. He came to train and hone his moves with the other wrestling gods of fame.
  • Takes the Cooper Van on daily races every now and then...but he's mostly known for the destruction he causes on the race track. Many fear the day that he gets involved with Yukari-sensei in a full on crash.
  • Him and King II frequently spar together alongside the likes of Zangief, Mike Haggar and the other wrestling gods.
    • Shouted for absolute joy when he found Rey Mysterio ascending to the Pantheon, rushing toward the House of Sports to congratulate him. Rey was a bit confused—as he was talking to a huge hippo—but quickly got over it when he saw Murray's wrestling moves.
  • Has cross-dressed every now and then, usually for capers. Thus he goes to the House of Craft in order to get clothes that can easily fit him. Many of the gods there look at him weirdly (as he is a humongous pink hippo), but he pays them well so it's not a big bother.
  • Has a bit of a friendly rivalry with Po. The two are shown in eating contests and fights between Po's kung-fu and The Murray's wrestling. They aren't allowed to do kart racing after the two crashed and destroyed one half of the House of Travel.
  • Hearing about the Gourmet Race, he jumped into the van and zoomed towards the starting line. To his shock, he was told that racers have to run under their own power. The hippo was a severe disadvantage since, as Bentley once put it eloquently, "he's not light on his feet" and abandoned the van against his will to start the long trek. He reached the finish line dead last but King Dedede was more than impressed to see him make it to the finish line without giving up. As a result, he earned his place in the Gourmet Racer Club table at the House of Food. Murray was so overjoyed he allowed Dedede shotgun privileges in the van for a year.
  • After the Master Control Program ascended, Bentley and his hacker friends (Otacon, Ed, Estonia, and Shiena) were unable to do their hacking games without finding themselves being zapped into Space Paranoids and being locked up. Murray decided to teach the MCP a lesson by tricking him into zapping him in, and then proceeded to smash the Pit Cell and Sark into little 1s and 0s.
  • Murray often visits the local sushi bar, with full pride thanks to meeting it's inventor, Rioichi Cooper, recently. His favorite sushi happens to be the difficult-to-cook fugu. However, this nearly got him in trouble once when the fugu was mixed up with another dish ordered by Sora, which caused him to fall ill.
  • Murray was not always brave and muscle. In his youth, he was quite cowardly, especially when it came to grabbing keys for Sly to access certain locations. In fact, his original cowardice allowed him to bond with Donald Duck, who was also a coward in his youth (and still is, somewhat).
  • Murray really hates it when someone he and his friends can trust betrays them unexpectedly. The first time it happened was with Neyla, who tricked him and Sly into being thrown into a dried-up pond to be caught by Interpol. This lead Murray to be used as a test subject to rage-inducing spice that almost resulted in him killing his friends in a brainwashed state. However, it is Penelope's betrayal that really ticked Murray off, especially since she had become a Yandere who tried to kill him and Sly to have Bentley all to herself. Murray does not care if Penelope once aided him in saving his beloved van; she attacks Sly and breaks Bentley's heart, she deserves to have her neck snapped, especially if she becomes the next "Sköll".
  • While it took him awhile to realize it, Murray has learned that his "master", The Guru, has ascended in, and has quickly returned to his services. Currently, Murray is in the House of Time and Space meditating in the hopes that Sora's forgiveness would allow Homura Akemi to have second thoughts. On the other hand, The Guru says meditating might bring Penelope back to her senses, but even Murray thinks that redeeming her is hollow.
  • "The Thunder Flop knows not friend or foe. Only destruction."

    Sven the Rogue Knight 
Sven, God of Super-Strength (Rogue Knight)
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sven_artifact.png
  • Lesser God. Will get a rank up into Intermediate God for every seconds when activating God's Strength.
  • Symbol: The Outcast Blade crossed with a Black King Bar (his favorite item)
  • Alignment: Chaotic Good
  • Portfolio: The Berserker, The Outcast Blade, Storm Hammer, (Greater) God's Strength, Great Cleave, Depending on Minimum Flashy Skills, Momentary Moments of Super Power, Screaming Warrior, Manly Fearlessness of Diving to the Enemy Ranks And Wreaking Havoc, Being There to Pump You Up, Lightning Bruiser, Cool Helmet, Cynical Knights, Preference on Solo (mostly), One Man in a World of Foes, Half-Meranth
  • Domains: Heroes, Combat, Strength, Manliness
  • Followers: Hammerstorm
  • Allies:
  • Rivals (not necessarily enemies): The Champions of Runeterra
  • Enemies:
  • Teethclenched Teamwork: Anti-Mage, Zeus
  • During a League battle against Noxus, Garen was supposed to aid Riven against Draven and Darius, but got held up, leaving Riven overwhelmed. All of the sudden, aid came in form of not Garen, but Sven. Activating several of his items (Black King Bar, Mask of Madness) and his God's Strength, Sven managed to pump himself (and Riven) up and managed to floor both Draven and Darius with just normal attacks and Riven's aid. After Garen arrived from his tardiness, Sven left, not informing about what the Radiants' stance between Demacia and Noxus, but they clearly stand for the GUAG, and the next time they meet, they may be rivals or on the opposing side.
    • When he's approached again by Garen, surprisingly offering an alliance, Sven actually agreed, but mostly because his non-ascended buddy Yurnero was following Garen, and one of the Dire's heroes and his opponents, Axe, is amongst the Noxus ranks. Sven decided to make things fair.
    • His friendship with Garen eventually allows Garen's former follower, Yurnero the Juggernaut, also occasionally known as Sven's BFF, to garner a lot of influence that the he became Co-Gods with Garen about his thing. To this day he still continues daily sparring with Yurnero, but for some reason he's usually on the losing side, though they're still good friends regardless. Sven knows that it was because of his unrestrained raw power with less skills, but he has no regrets, he's a lot more proficient with that, and if they combine their powers together, they're nigh-unstoppable.
  • Sven's strength was the stuffs of legends, he's already a being brimming with strength, but once he activated the (Greater) God's Strength, he pumps up even more strength to dispense onto his foes, sometimes killing his foes in a few hits, or with artifacts that enhance his strength even more, in a mere one hit, making him a dangerous God to fight in-your-face style.
    • Following a code of chivalry on his own, Sven used to take residence in other houses, but eventually felt like those weren't his true calling... until he met Hercules, who has heard of his feats of strength via his follower, Hammerstorm, who has occasionally called the aid of Hercules, causing him to learn of Sven's style and wanting a good fight. After a massive, muscular battle erupted and died down with no clear victor, Sven was offered a vacant sub-house in Hercules' domain: Super-Strength. Sensing that this could be his true calling for good, Sven packed up and took the domain for him, with his ever growing strength being the testament of it. And he's been friends with Herc ever since.
  • While preferring to work alone, Sven is also quite welcome to aid others or receiving aids, but he'll just say it's for practical reasons.
  • He's a believer that honor lies not on the social order, but on himself. This is why he truly hates people who uses social status to shun people.
    • For some reason, maybe because of the above two, Sven seems to honor people who are kind of loners. During one of his travels, he met Yasuo and in spite being rivals, Sven could respect his style and solitary life, and occasionally impressed with his vital strikes. When they combine their power together, even if it's rare, hell would break loose, as according to his words: "This is going to be absurd."
  • Is known as one of the deities with the deadliest Herd-Hitting Attack, thanks to his Super-Strength, because Sven doesn't even need fancy skills for that, his own strength hits the herd so hard and can take out many gods at once in three to even one hit. Observe. Combined with his style of battle, getting to the heat of battle and doing exactly that... he's usually referred as one of the manliest Gods.
  • In case you didn't get it yet, he's here to PUMP YOU UP (or gets PUMPED UP). He makes frequent visits to other muscle-working Gods such as Bang Shishigami and Alex Louis Armstrong for that. And with his new alliance with Garen, he can occasionally be seen PUMPING UP Garen and vice versa. He also finds quite the similarity with Pantheon, who also entered his pumping up activity. That's if they're not trading blows with their weapons.
    • He is, however, a little miffed about Bang's overenthusiastic dedication for 'justice'. In his words... "What you call 'righteousness', I call 'foolishness'." Aside of that, they're pretty okay with each other.
    • Thanks to times training, Sven has finally discovered a secret of the Aghanim Scepter, with that he can also get everyone's strength, not just defenses, PUMPED UP.
  • Sven is known for his ability to turn even the hardiest yell into something incredibly poetic. Says that it's in his Vigil Codex, but nobody knows if it just consists of "YAAAEEERRGGHH!" "RRRAAAUUGHH!", but whenever he yells that, it inspires a lot of people, and gets them and himself PUMPED UP.
  • Is surprised when he met face to face with Lina Inverse. Sven recognized about someone with similar name and similar skill sets, but he expected her to be more floaty and covered in flames. What finally made him realize that he's talking to a different entity was when this Lina doesn't even recognize the name 'Rylai'.
    • That said, when the Lina and Rylai he knew of ascended, he kept a stoic attitude, but deep down appreciates their presence. He'd still deny about rumors about 'dating' with Rylai, although he certainly enjoys being partnered with her for stat-based benefits.
  • Several sources have said that he used to be a punching bag against other heroes from his origin. With his standing as still being solid in normal situations, and a testimony of his new friend who suffered similar status, Cu Chulainn, Sven managed to keep his position and dignity.
  • He's kind of puzzled on why Rylai insists that he puts on a reindeer horn helmet on top of his own helmet. On being called out as 'being a carry' as one of his roles, and being introduced to Queen Elsa, Sven finally understands the connection. He's still pretty embarrassed.
  • For a long time in the pantheon, Sven has kept his status as a Half-Meranth a secret, as he is not in the mood to suffer discrimination similar to what the Meranth receives from certain groups. However Rylai, who is aware of Sven's secret, convinced Sven to reveal it to the Pantheon. The revelation of Sven's identity as a Half-Meranth human shocked much of the pantheon, though the shock passed over. Sven himself ended up with new allies as a result.
    • Sven has also earned himself a surprising ally, Blake Belladonna. He's not the only one with discrimination issues brought by his species, so they could both easily empathize with each other.
  • "You should have stood and fought like a man, even if you're not one!"

Demigods

    King Midas 
King Midas, God of The Transmuting Touch
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/2142.jpg
A painting of Midas with donkey ears
  • Demigod
  • Symbol: A hand made of gold
  • Theme Song: Gold by Imagine Dragons
  • Alignment: True Neutral
  • Portfolio: The Midas Touch Wishing He Could Turn Things To Gold With A Touch,Including Food And Water, Accidental Murder By Touching His Daughter, Sacred Hospitality, Sometimes Gets His Powers Undone And Her Daughter Revived
  • Domains: Greed, Gold, Royalty, Wishes, Tragedy
  • Complicated relationship with: Bacchus (well, Dionysus)
  • Sought by: The SCP Foundation
  • Allies: Timmy Turner, Ebeenzer Scrooge, The Trix Rabbit, Firestorm, Edward Elric, Cassim and Aladdin, Pinocchio
  • On good terms with: Scott Summers
  • Enemies: Calypso, Tywin Lannister, Walder Frey, Smaug, Fafnir, Heihachi Mishima, The Coachman, the Grand United Alliance of Destruction, Jason Grace
  • Opposes: Kratos, Apollo
  • Pitied by: The Houses of Family and Relatives and Food, Genie, Scrooge McDuck, Mr Krabs, Fred C Dobbs
  • Confused by: Larfleeze
  • Be careful what you wish for, and you might just get it. King Midas was given a wish by Dionysus, and the wish he chose is to turn what he touched into gold. At first it worked well; Midas got to appeal to his greed and make twigs and plants gold. But the touch didn't discriminate, and turned food and drink to gold. In some stories, even his own daughter wasn't immune to his utter horror. Though a terrible fate, some tales have a mercy with him washing his hands in the river Pactolus to undo it after praying to Dionysus. This is why it's thought the river sands have an abundance of gold and electrum.
  • Tragically, in the original myth his wish was granted due to observing Sacred Hospitality; he gave hospitality to Dionysus' old satyr schoolmaster Silenus. Naturally, he is as disgusted as anybody would be for Walder Frey's great breach of guest right. Frey's "ally" Tywin takes a more sinister opinion on Midas; he's an idiot but he can be used to replenish the Lannister coffers.
  • Even after dealing with one curse, Midas still made mistakes. He claimed that Pan was a better musician than Apollo, who thought he must've had an ass's ear to think so. Guess what happened. At least it's not as bad as what the Coachman did, who he is very disgusted by. Having narrowly avoided the full ass treatment, Pinocchio sympathizes with his second curse and Midas wants to work with Pinocchio to bring the Coachman down.
  • Because of his power turning food and drink to solid gold, he is pitied by the House of Food. But the House of Family pities him for a larger reason; inadvertently turning his own daughter to gold. As this was utterly unintentional, King Midas is as disgusted as anyone that Heihachi Mishima wants to off the offspring.
  • Scrooge McDuck might go so far as swimming in money, but after seeing what happened to King Midas he just wants to give him a hug for his misfortune. Mr Krabs showed some pity as he had a similar problem; he wished to be able to talk to money, but they talked back to him and hated him being a cheapskate and not spending them. Granted the problem was a lack of riches, but he still relates to Midas in how their greed bit them in the ass. As does Fred C Dobbs, who's greed led to his death.
  • King Midas finds himself relating to Timmy Turner as they both have a problem with not thinking their wishes through. Genie pities how bad his wish went, and he sometimes relates to Scott Summers over Power Incontinence. Naturally he gives Calypso the stink eye for twisting wishes into something negative for the user. He also relates to Ebeneezer Scrooge in how their greed bit them in the ass and they learned a lesson from it.
  • Sought after alchemists for advice about the touch, fully aware of the irony his curse is one of the main goals of the field. He ended up meeting Edward Elric, who's skill in alchemy let him reverse some of the damage his Midas Touch did...to an extent. His alchemy uses Equivalent Exchange, it's not magic and doesn't violate issues of density like turning things like bark to the much denser gold does. Firestorm's ability to change elemental compositions was handy for Midas, though he's stated organic transmutation is a whole different manner.
  • Both Smaug and Fafnir would love to harvest the Midas Touch to give them as much gold as their greedy hearts desire. The House of Commerce is trying to protect Midas from exploitation, since the more gold he'd make, the less valuable the gold market would be.
  • The GUAD recognizes the potentially apocalyptic potential of turning things to gold with a touch. If he can turn water into solid gold, they might be able to use the Midas Touch on the ocean and dehydrate the majority of life on Earth. The SCP Foundation recognize the danger as akin to SCP-009 and will shelter him from the GUAD.
  • Though Midas is given relief from his curse in some universes, in others he's not so lucky. One had him seek an end, to which Kratos gave him one...in a river of lava. Midas was infuriated by this as he wanted a Mercy Kill, though Kratos has softened up over then and has apologized for not making his end swifter.
  • Another timeline implies that his hand and its ability to turn things to gold will survive him. It's the treasure that Cassim was looking for, but ultimately decided it wasn't worth it compared to his family. King Midas respects the King of Thieves and his son, and upon learning of their endeavors welcomes any visit from them.
  • Thought to have learned his lesson, but some say he never learned his lesson about greed. Only how reverse its effects with running water. He even turned his daughter back into a gold statue after he decided he prefers her that way, as well as several others. he was beaten when Jason blew open a hole in his roof with lightning, undoing the effects on his victims and leaving him at their mercy. Midas insists that was a case of Came Back Wrong and not the real him.
  • Some wonder why King Midas didn't just wear gloves, and he admits it might've worked but hindsight is 20/20. Definitely doing so now that he's in the pantheon. Larfleeze has expressed pity for him, but for the completely wrong reason; if he turns more things into gold, he devalues it by making the stuff less rare, and that doesn't work for his greedy mind. For that reason the Orange Lantern wouldn't want him or his powers.
